Su Zhen had been feeling a bit anxious lately.

Although the family’s finances had not yet reached the point where they were spending more than they were bringing in,

the fact that money kept going out without any coming in was making Su Zhen anxious.

To make matters worse, Du Weiwei had a fondness for buying all sorts of expensive jewelry!

So, seizing the moment when Du Weiwei wasn’t paying attention, Su Zhen planned to return those expensive pieces of jewelry she had just purchased.

But instead, he caught sight of Lin Ranyue with that director.

Not to mention, being ignored by Lin Ranyue only added to Su Zhen’s distress!

The presence of these two together here surely meant that...

"Ranyue, are you marrying him?"

Lin Ranyue stopped in her tracks, turned around, and offered Su Zhen a polite smile.

"Yes, what about it? Do you want an invitation? It’s not out of the question, but remember to bring a gift if you come."

Remember to bring a gift... to his ex-wife’s wedding?

Su Zhen felt as if he’d been struck by lightning.

He watched, with wide eyes, as the man with a dangerous glare in his eyes wrapped his arm around Lin Ranyue’s shoulder and left.

It felt like the strike had hit him right in the heart.

Especially when he thought about his wife Du Weiwei, constantly shopping and depleting the family’s Star Coins.

Su Zhen’s heart ached even more!

At that moment, a man dressed in a black Tang suit approached Su Zhen.

After looking around, the man spoke in a hushed tone, "Excuse me, are you Lin Ranyue’s ex-husband, Mr. Su Zhen?"

Su Zhen, still nursing his sorrow, looked up in confusion and asked, "I am, but who are you?"

The man in the black Tang suit said, "My surname is Mu. There’s something I’d like to understand from you."

"..."

Five minutes later, Su Zhen followed the man to a booth in a coffee shop.

The man in black: "Mr. Su, may I ask why you divorced Mrs. Lin Ranyue?"

Su Zhen: "Who exactly are you? Why should I tell you this?"

The man in black: "You don’t know me, but let me put it this way, my surname is Mu, and the Mu Family does not wish for Miss Lin to marry Mu Lei."

Upon hearing it was about this matter, Su Zhen’s eyes lit up instantly!

He said, "Ask me whatever you want to know!"

The man in black: "The same question again, why did you divorce Miss Lin? Did she... do something wrong during the marriage?"

Su Zhen was taken aback and fell silent.

After a while, under the expectant gaze of the man in black, Su Zhen said, "Ranyue, she didn’t do anything wrong; it was I... who couldn’t let go of my moonlight first love. But I actually didn’t want to divorce her at all!"

As he said this, Su Zhen hesitated again.

No, he couldn’t.

He couldn’t reveal that Commander Gu had forced them to divorce.

Because if he did, the other person wouldn’t be able to confront Commander Gu about it.

And if Commander Gu found out, he would definitely cause trouble for him!

The man in black looked somewhat disappointed after hearing this.

He continued to prompt Su Zhen, "Then, about Mrs. Lin Ranyue, her personal health... is there any issue? For instance, regarding her ability to bear children..."

Su Zhen was stunned for a moment, remembering that these past years, Lin Ranyue had given birth to three children in succession for him!

Bearing sons and daughters, staying by the home without leaving.

Although they occasionally argued as husband and wife, they would reconcile quickly.

Lin Ranyue’s hearty nature, Lin Ranyue’s radiant smile... Why did it suddenly feel so distant?

Meanwhile, Su Zhen often found himself quarreling with Du Weiwei, and each time, he ended up having to apologize, having to coax Du Weiwei before the matter would be resolved.

Most importantly, Su Zhen wasn’t even sure if the child in Du Weiwei’s womb was his...

The man in black, seeing him silent, thought he saw an opportunity—Lin Ranyue must have some hidden illness!

If only he could find out and tell Mu Lei, he’d see if he still insists on marrying that woman!

Then the next moment, the man in black heard Su Zhen say in extreme agony, "Ranyue is a good woman, it’s me... I didn’t cherish her!"

The man in black: ???

Empire University.

The exam season had finally ended.

Students would be able to check their exam results on the school website via their brain-computers in a few days.

Besides the Military Academy, students participating in the Mecha competition had to prepare for the finals.

All other students were about to go on vacation.

Sheng An initially decided to stay at school because it was convenient for both working and studying, and it was cheaper,

On the other hand, she could also cheer for her little buddies who were about to participate in the finals of the Mecha competition.

But Su Wan told her, "The Su Family’s restaurant branch in District 10 is about to open. I plan to let suitable children from the orphanage work there."

Su Wan had not told Sheng An about this.

It wasn’t until the inspection was passed, the restaurant’s location was confirmed, and all relevant procedures were completed that Su Wan shared the news.

Upon hearing this, Sheng An was stunned!

Su Wan had not told her about encountering Sheng Le at the underground fighting arena.

Su Wan simply said, "I heard that you used to work really hard to afford your studies, and at the same time, you also helped the other brothers and sisters at the orphanage."

"I think your younger brothers and sisters are probably in the same situation now."

"I will provide them the opportunity, but if they are not serious about their part-time job, then there’s nothing I can do," she said.

No sooner had she finished than Sheng An excitedly hugged her.

"Xiaowan, thank you. Really, thank you."

Su Wan smiled gently, "Actually, I have my own considerations, both public and private."

Sheng An understood and did not continue to ask.

Because to her, she was already extremely grateful that Su Wan was willing to offer a place for her brothers and sisters to work part-time!

Sheng An had always been very concerned about her younger siblings.

Sheng An said, "Then I’ll go back early during the vacation, I will assess them and see who is suitable for what job. For those who are not, I won’t let them cause trouble."

Su Wan nodded, agreeing that it would be for the best.

The finalist list for the Mecha competition had not been released yet.

And because her mother was remarrying, Su Wan was also busy preparing for various things.

When she learned that her mother Lin Ranyue’s future house with Director Gu would not be far from Commander Gu Jue’s mansion, Su Wan was very happy.

It was quite miraculous.

Just a few months ago, her mother Lin Ranyue was busy with her daughter Su Wan’s marriage.

And now, it was the daughter’s turn to be busy with her mother’s wedding.

But she was busy with the Mecha competition, then with exams, and now with preparing for her mother’s wedding.

Su Wan always felt like she was neglecting something.

After helping her mother pick out a wedding dress, she returned home and saw the White Tiger fluttering about, knowing Gu Jue had come back from work.

Su Wan: "White Tiger, where’s Ajue?"

White Tiger: "Master is training in the Underground Mech Training Room."

Su Wan paused, "Why would he train all of a sudden? Is it because he hasn’t been assigned any missions lately?"

White Tiger hesitated for a moment, carefully choosing its words.

In the end, it spoke very cautiously, "He has too much energy and nowhere to channel it."

Su Wan: "..."
