Pei Youyou arrived home in a daze. Inside the brightly lit villa, two people were packing their luggage.

"Youyou?" Lin Zhengyu feigned surprise.

Xiang Nan stood obediently to the side, the marks on his neck were obvious, but Pei Youyou did not notice them. She simply went to Lin Zhengyu's side, snatched the clothes from his hand and threw them on the ground.

"Are you really going to City K?"

"You know."

"Why should you go to K City? Just because Xing Yanzhao tells you to go, you'll go."

“That’s what Mom and Dad think too.” Lin Zhengyu went over to hug her, but Pei Youyou wouldn’t let him. He forcibly pulled her into his arms, kissed her hair, and said, “Youyou, I’m sorry. I’m useless. I can’t give you the life of a rich wife.”

"What do you mean? Are you going to divorce me?!"

"Of course not, I love you, and I will never divorce you in this lifetime." The last sentence was a solemn vow.

Pei Youyou raised her hand and gave him two small punches. "What are you afraid of? If the Xing family doesn't help you, don't you still have me? And we, the Pei family! What's so good about the Xing family? I didn't want to stay there for a long time. Go and resign. I'll talk to Dad and my brother, and you can work at Pei's."

Lin Zhengyu's eyes flashed.

“Youyou, Dad and Yuanzhou won’t agree. I was transferred because… because…”

"I know!" Pei Youyou pushed him away, pouting somewhat dissatisfied. "Why didn't you tell me? Never mind, it's not your fault. Blame my brother for freezing all my cards. He has to take responsibility. I'll go home tomorrow and talk to them to arrange for you to get a job at the company."

Lin Zhengyu bent down to pick up the clothes.

Pei Youyou kicked it away, "I already said I'd help you!"

Lin Zhengyu said helplessly, "I'm just hanging it back in the closet. I'm not leaving. I'll be wherever you are."

"That's more like it." Pei Youyou spread her arms, indicating that she wanted him to hug her.

Lin Zhengyu immediately went over to hug her, bowed to Nan and said, "Mr. Lin, Ms. Pei, I'll head back now."

He received a simple reply and then left.

Pei Youyou noticed the marks on Xiang Nan's neck and asked, "Brother Zhengyu, does Xiang Nan have a girlfriend?"

Lin Zhengyu was taken aback.

"The hickeys on his neck are so clear."

Lin Zhengyu lowered his eyes and smiled faintly: "I don't know. I don't care about my subordinates, I only care about you." He leaned forward to smell her, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Did you enjoy your drink?"

"I was so happy at first, but Mom... she doesn't deserve to be your mother, nor does she deserve for me to call her Mom or Mother-in-law. She didn't even stand by your side, but instead ganged up on us. Tomorrow when I go home, I'm going to tell my mom and the others that the Xing family bullied me!"

Pei Youyou has been a master of tattling and fabricating stories since she was a child. After a series of accusations and lies, she concluded that Xing Yanzhao was suppressing and bullying her brother Zhengyu, and that the Xing family was now on Xing Yanzhao's side, ganging up to bully him.

The details of what went wrong within the Xing family would certainly not be revealed. Pei Yuanzhou, Pei's father, also understood that since Xing Yanzhao had won this time, Lin Zhengyu would naturally face suppression from all sides.

The so-called misappropriation of funds is probably just an excuse.

The Pei family was already at odds with Chaoye Technology, and Xing Yanzhao was the chairman of Chaoye Technology. In reality, it was Pei Yuanzhou and Xing Yanzhao who were at odds. Lin Zhengyu and Xing Yanzhao were also at odds, so it would be best to bring them under their wing.

Pei Yuanzhou immediately agreed.

Mr. Pei nodded, mainly because he was worried that his daughter and Lin Zhengyu were living apart. If his daughter went to K City with him, he would not only feel sorry for her, but he would also not be able to see her.

Therefore, Lin Zhengyu submitted his resignation.

Xing Yanzhao approved it in a second; he never wanted to keep any parasites around.

However, Lin Zhengyu's situation was special. The resignation approval would eventually go to the chairman. Xing's father stared at the screen for a long time before calling Lin Zhengyu.

"Have you thought it through?"

“Dad, I’m too ashamed to stay at Xing’s anymore, and I don’t want to be too far away from you and Mom. No matter what’s wrong with me, you’ve always been my parents for the past thirty years.”

Mr. Xing was silent for a moment: "What are your plans?"

"Let's rest for a while."

"Have you told your mother?"

"I'll tell you later."

"Ah."

After the father and son finished their call, Xing's mother, having heard the gist of it, still couldn't help but feel worried.

"Zhengyu's phone call?"

"Ah."

"Are you going to City K?"

"I quit."

"Oh." Mother Xing nodded slightly, murmuring absentmindedly, "I see."

She knew her child had done something wrong, but he was the child she had raised, and his mistakes weren't unforgivable.

The child has received the appropriate punishment and should be forgiven.

Xing's mother was about to call Lin Zhengyu, but she hesitated to press the call button. Instead, the other party called back.

She answered the call in a second.

"mom……"

After a moment of silence, Xing's mother replied, "Zhengyu, I heard from your father that you resigned?"

"Yes, Mom. I originally planned to tell you in person, but I did something that I'm ashamed of, and I'm too embarrassed to face you. But I was raised by you, so no matter what I do, I should at least tell you."

Mother Xing sighed softly.

"Zhengyu, it's okay once it's changed."

"Thank you, Mom." The voice on the phone was a little choked up.

Xing's mother immediately felt sorry for him and asked a few words of concern before hanging up the phone.

……

Chaoye Technology.

Luo Huai knocked on the manager's office door and entered. "Manager, I'd like to ask for leave..."

"Please, please." The manager stood up immediately upon seeing her.

Luo Huai: "..."

The moment Xing Yanzhao's identity was revealed, the company's senior management also knew about it. However, since the boss hadn't given any instructions, they kept it a secret and dared not reveal anything.

"Manager, aren't you going to ask me why I'm taking leave?"

"You must have your reasons for taking leave," the manager said with a smile.

Luo Huai was somewhat amused and exasperated, explaining, "It's almost June, and I have to defend my thesis and prepare for the graduation ceremony, so I'm planning to take a week off."

"A week isn't enough. You can come back to work after graduation." You're the boss's wife; it's fine if you don't come to work.

"Thank you, manager. I'll go and go through the procedures."

"Ok."

When Luo Huai was going through the OA approval process, he suddenly discovered that his approval process had skipped the team leader and manager and gone directly to the chairman. Then, it was approved instantly, and then copied to HR, the team leader and manager.

"..."

She took a picture and sent it to Xing Yanzhao, saying he was slacking off.

Xing Yanzhao replied that it was approved automatically; anything she approved would be approved automatically.

Luo Huai had nothing to say.

Back home, I discussed it with Xing Yanzhao: "I want to go back to school for half a month. It will be convenient for my thesis defense and for me to meet up with my classmates and roommates. After graduation, everyone will go their separate ways."

"Is that okay?" Luo Huai asked, tilting his head back.

Xing Yanzhao couldn't stand her obedient look as she looked up at him, so he bent down and pecked her on the lips, saying, "Your freedom."

Luo Huai tiptoed and kissed him: "Thank you, Brother Zhao!"

Suddenly a large hand appeared on the back of my head, and another on my waist, and my heel, which hadn't yet touched the ground, was lifted up again.

A barrage of kisses fell.

The man carried her all the way to the bedroom.

"Brother Zhao, you haven't eaten yet!"

"Eat later."
