After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

Ye Yingying caught Gu Tianyou's suspicious gaze and quickly explained, "Brother Tianyou, Shen Yao is framing me!"

Gu Tianyou narrowed his eyes slightly, "I will investigate your matter thoroughly later."

He turned to look at Shen Yao, just about to remind her to continue slapping her.

Shen Yao had already raised her hand, and then struck herself on the corpse of Old Master Gu.

Huangfuhao stood at the door, about to stop them, when Gu Tianyou coldly reminded him...

“Young Master Huangfu, if you dare to utter a single word, I will bankrupt your company within a month. Then, everyone will know that you are still that good-for-nothing.”

"Huangfuhao, don't interfere. This is my final entanglement with the Gu family." Shen Yao also refused Huangfuhao.

She can bear the shame and pain she is in now.

As long as I can draw a clear line between myself and the Gu family from now on.

With Old Master Gu gone, she no longer has any attachment to the Gu family.

He raised his hand and slapped her face again.

Each slap to the face lessened Shen Yao's guilt towards Old Master Gu.

If that hesitation just now really was the cause of Old Master Gu's death.

So, at this moment, Shen Yao is willing to atone for her sins in this way.

But only tonight.

Gu Tianyou stared at Shen Yao, just in case she didn't slap him enough.

However, he was completely overthinking it.

Even after the 100th slap, Shen Yao showed no mercy to herself.

Looking down at the woman's swollen face, Gu Tianyou's anger did not subside in the slightest.

He should be happy, but for some reason he just can't be.

"Grandpa, may you rest in peace. I will visit you every year on Qingming Festival. Rest in peace."

Shen Yao kowtowed three times heavily on the ground before slowly getting up.

Suddenly everything went black, and her body tilted to one side. Just as Shen Yao was about to fall, a hand caught her shoulder.

An impatient, cold voice came from above, "Why aren't you getting out of here?"

Shen Yao opened her eyes and saw Gu Tianyou supporting her shoulder as she struggled to move aside.

"No need to say anything, I'll leave."

"Yaoyao, are you alright?" Huangfuhao walked over with a guilty expression and put his hand on Shen Yao's shoulder.

Shen Yao gently broke free from Huangfu Hao's grasp and said with a smile, "I'm fine, don't worry."

"I...I'm sorry!" Huangfu Hao apologized weakly.

"Yaoyao, I thought Huangfu Hao loved you so much? Turns out, when disaster strikes, everyone abandons each other. You still have such poor taste in men." Ye Yingying said with a hint of schadenfreude.

Shen Yao scoffed lightly, her gaze sweeping indifferently over Gu Tianyou's face.

"I admit I had bad taste in men before. But, Miss Ye, aren't you eager to have the men I don't want?"

This one sentence directly insulted both Gu Tianyou and Ye Yingying.

Gu Tianyou's face turned ashen, and he was about to explode in anger when Shen Yao turned and walked out the door.

As he watched the woman's figure recede into the distance, Gu Tianyou's sense of loss grew ever stronger.

"Shen Yao, you can scold me, but why do you even scold Brother Tianyou? Didn't you love him very much before?"

Ye Yingying called out to Shen Yao's retreating figure.

This woman always says things that cause Shen Yao pain.

Huangfuhao pointed at Ye Yingying and said, "Shut up! Yaoyao doesn't care about your Tianyou brother at all. Stop being so presumptuous!"

"Hmph, how much she fawned over Brother Tianyou back then, and now she says she doesn't care anymore? Do you believe that? Huangfu Hao, in the end, you're nothing but a cuckold!"
