Zhou Yiran complained to his mother about Jiang Ru's brazen claim to divide the property equally: "This Jiang Ru doesn't even know what kind of person she is. Why should she divide our property equally? Don't even think about taking a penny. She even hired someone to beat me up. If I don't make him leave the house with nothing, I won't be named Zhou."

"I never thought this woman would beat my son like this for her own benefit. She doesn't even care about the relationship between husband and wife. I really misjudged her before."

Zhou's mother was so angry that she felt very distressed to see her son being beaten and hospitalized. She was originally very satisfied with Jiang Ru as a daughter-in-law and felt that Zhou Yiran had gone too far, but now she blamed all the faults on Jiang Ru.

Mother Zhou disregarded their past friendship and once again became bitter and sarcastic, demanding that Zhou Yiran force Jiang Ru out of the house. She angrily said, "Son, you're right. Why should our Zhou family's wealth be divided up with an outsider? This woman has coveted our family's wealth from the beginning. Dream on!"

At this time, Zhou's mother was still in the hospital. The whole family was very angry. Lu Lin pretended to be well-behaved and personally cooked soup to feed Zhou's mother: "I cooked this tonic soup for you personally. You must try it. It will help your condition."

"what!"

Seeing the soup served in front of her, Zhou's mother discovered that it was actually chicken soup for replenishing blood. She didn't expect such thoughtfulness and was very satisfied. However, she accidentally spilled the soup just as she was about to drink it.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to. Are you okay?" Not only that, because Zhou's mother's hands suddenly shook, the soup spilled unexpectedly, and her hands were burned by Zhou's mother, and her hands were burned red.

Zhou's mother knew it was her fault, so she hurriedly showed concern.

"How could you be so careless? Mom, this is Lu Lin's gift."

Even this time, Zhou Yiran couldn't bear it anymore. Seeing that Lu Lin's hands were red and swollen, he hurried over to check the situation and began to condemn Zhou's mother.

"I'm fine, as long as Auntie didn't get burned. If he got stupid, I can cook it again. Auntie is more important."

Lu Lin saw the spilled soup, which he had stewed for several hours. He was helpless and had no idea what to do. He could only suppress his anger and say that nothing was wrong, pretending to be very concerned about Zhou's mother.

"Auntie, are you hurt?" Lu Lin pretended to be concerned and his voice was very sweet.

"I can't believe you're still concerned about whether I'm hurt after I spilled your soup. You're such a sensible and good child. Why didn't I realize you were so well-behaved before?"

Mother Zhou was very surprised. She originally thought that Lu Lin would blame her, but unexpectedly, he cared about her and was so sensible. She was directly praised. This series of actions completely touched Mother Zhou's heart, and she also recognized her as a daughter-in-law.

Zhou's mother even advised earnestly, "Just wait until Yiran and Jiang Ru get divorced, then you can get married right away."

"Yeah!" Lu Lin nodded excitedly. She was finally able to get the approval of Zhou's mother. She was secretly happy that the position of the young lady of the Zhou family could only belong to her!

On the other side, Jiang Ru was processing documents in the company, but in the office, she received a call from Jiang Jiaojiao.

At first, after Jiang Ru found out the name of the caller, she didn't want to answer the call, but Jiang Jiaojiao kept calling, so she had no choice but to answer the call impatiently.

"Sister, my dad's 60th birthday is coming up in a few days. Our whole family will be preparing for the occasion, so you must come back!"

A delicate voice was heard in the conversation, and the person who spoke was his cousin, Jiang Jiaojiao, the daughter of his second uncle Jiang Yuannian.

They are said to be relatives, but since his father was imprisoned, no one has contacted him, and no one has helped him.

Jiang Ru once cried and begged them, hoping that they could help her, but she was ignored.

Ever since her father went to prison, Jiang Ru has seen through people's hearts. If a disaster really happens, everyone will run away and no one will help them.

Jiang Ru is now overwhelmed and doesn't want to deal with these relatives, but she didn't expect to receive a call from Jiang Jiaojiao.

Jiang Ru didn't want to go at all. Her father was now in prison, but they were holding a 60th birthday party and invited her to attend. Isn't this ironic?

She refused directly at the time and said coldly: "I still have to deal with company matters, you guys just have fun."

Jiang Jiaojiao immediately criticized Jiang Ru, both openly and covertly, and spoke in a teasing tone, "Sister, you haven't been home for a long time. It's my dad's 60th birthday, so it would be great if everyone in the family could be there. You're not going to disown the Jiang family, are you?"

"I don't know if I have time. We'll see when the time comes. The company still has a lot of things to deal with, so I may not have time."

Jiang Ru did not agree at that time, saying that she would see the time. She did not give an immediate reply and then hung up the phone.

She didn't want to attend Jiang Yuannian's 60th birthday party at all. Her father was still in prison. Could she happily attend their birthday party? Jiang Ru simply couldn't do it.

She planned to find an excuse to get away with it when the time came. However, Jiang Ru was disturbed by Jiang Jiaojiao's call and she lost the mood to deal with the documents.

Suddenly thinking of her father, Jiang Ru remembered that she had not visited her father for a long time. Because she was dealing with a divorce case, she didn't know how her father was doing. Jiang Ru decided to visit him in prison.

To visit Jiang's father in prison, the two met again in prison after a few days.

Inside the prison, the two were so close yet unable to touch. Father Jiang saw Jiang Ru's frail figure and choked up with heartache: "My child, I haven't been by your side these years. You've lost weight. I was afraid that something might happen to you, so I didn't take good care of you and let you bear all this alone."

"Dad, please don't say that. As long as you are still here, our family will be reunited one day."

Jiang Ru shook her head and told her father not to worry about it. She believed that one day she would be able to get her father out of prison ahead of time.

"Dad, please stop talking about me. You're already much older. Are you having a good time in prison? Are they bullying you?"

Seeing her father's white hair at this moment, Jiang Ru felt heartbroken at her father's old age. Since he went to prison, he seemed to have aged by ten years. Jiang Ru's heart was bleeding at this moment.

"Silly girl, I'm living well in prison. This is also a pure land. You don't need to worry."

Father Jiang smiled. He had a kind smile on his face from beginning to end. He didn't want Jiang Ru to have any psychological burden.
