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

As soon as Bo Chengxi spoke, all the adults present fell into a brief silence.

Seeing Lu Jiajia's face turn pale, Shen Yao quickly explained, "Jiajia, it's not what Cheng Xi said. The truth is, I was hiding in the cubicle and Teacher Bo found me. When I was going out, I bumped into Teacher Bo. Then, we both lost our balance and fell..."

As the conversation progressed, Shen Yao noticed that Shen Lujiajia's complexion hadn't improved; in fact, it was getting worse.

Shen Yao felt the powerlessness of language once again.

She walked over and grabbed Lu Jiajia's arm. "Jiajia, I'm telling the truth. I'm not lying to you."

That is indeed the case.

She and Bo Yuxiu really didn't do anything shameful.

After being stunned for a long time, Lu Jiajia slowly came back to her senses.

She looked at Shen Yao's eyes, which were red from worry, raised her hand, and gently poked her shoulder.

"Okay, don't be so nervous, I'm not a bad person."

Shen Yao looked at Lu Jiajia and said earnestly, "You are my best friend."

Looking into Shen Yao's sincere eyes, Lu Jiajia chuckled and put her arm around her shoulder.

"Received, received, my Professor Shen. We promised to be best friends for life."

Seeing the smile return to Lu Jiajia's face, Shen Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

After leaving the Bo family and returning home, Shen Yao recalled Lu Jiajia's various subtle reactions, and the more she thought about it, the more guilty she felt.

For more than a year, Lu Jiajia has always stood by her side without hesitation whenever she faced challenges and difficulties.

Shen Yao didn't want Lu Jiajia to be angry or sad because of her.

As night fell, Shen Yao finished her dinner and sat on the second-floor bay window balcony, looking at the moon in the sky outside.

This upscale residential area is very quiet at night, with little noise.

Shen Yao plans to bring Wang Haiya to live with her after she is released from prison.

The thought of living with her biological mother brought Shen Yao no joy whatsoever.

For so many years, her biological mother has never lived with her for a single day, and Shen Yao is unsure whether they can get along harmoniously.

Just as she was lost in thought, a call came in from an unfamiliar number.

Shen Yao frowned, staring at the unfamiliar number, and paused, wondering why she was receiving so many unfamiliar calls lately.

She remembered that her number was quite secure.

After hesitating for a while, she finally pressed the answer button.

"Hello, who is it?"

"Do you see the flowers? These are your favorite lilies."

A familiar male voice came from the other end of the phone.

Shen Yao immediately guessed who had called her.

The anger in his chest ignited like a powder keg in an instant.

"Gu Tianyou, is there any point in you doing this?"

“Interesting. I’ve already decided what flowers to send you tomorrow: blue roses.”

The man completely ignored the woman's words and continued talking about his plans for tomorrow.

Shen Yao was furious.

Men didn't understand me in the past, and they still don't now.

"Don't send me flowers, I don't like them."

"What kind of flowers do you like? I'll buy them for you. Didn't you used to say that when you were tired from work, smelling flowers would make you feel much better?"

Gu Tianyou recalled that after Shen Yao married him, she had ordered flowers for him every single day.

Moreover, the greeting cards with flowers delivered every day were accompanied by very thoughtful blessings.

However, at that time, Gu Tianyou did not appreciate Shen Yao's feelings.
