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

Looking at the woman's resolute gaze, Huangfu Hao couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Even if you get divorced, will you still live here?

"I don't know. All I know is that Gu Tianyou doesn't have the right to make me move out of this house."

Shen Yao turned around and continued to help Huangfu Hao make the bed.

After tidying up briefly, Shen Yao told Huangfu Hao about some of the facilities in the villa.

For example, where can you play tennis, basketball, badminton, or go swimming?

Huangfu Hao wrote them down one by one.

Seeing that Shen Yao was about to leave, Huangfu Hao called her back.

"Gu Tianyou, are you alright?"

As childhood friends, Huangfuhao's feelings for Gu Tianyou are complicated.

For him, Gu Tianyou had treated Shen Yao badly in the past, so for a period of time he was also very hostile towards Gu Tianyou.

Later, Huangfuhao opened his own law firm, and Gu Tianyou used the Gu family's influence to suppress him at every turn.

It wasn't until Gu Tianyou regained Shen Yao that he stopped targeting him.

Although Gu Tianyou coerced Huangfuhao into obeying him, he also provided considerable assistance to Huangfuhao's legal career.

As the two competed and benefited from each other, their personal relationship deteriorated.

To be fair, Gu Tianyou in the past seemed to have bullied Huangfu Hao.

However, during the cooperation, she also introduced Huangfuhao to several major cases.

It was through these major cases that Huangfuhao gradually rose to fame and became the renowned lawyer he is today.

All of this is inseparable from Gu Tianyou.

Huangfuhao felt grateful to Gu Tianyou.

However, because of Gu Tianyou's entanglement with Shen Yao, Huangfu Hao finds it difficult to let go of his personal feelings towards Gu Tianyou.

But now that Gu Tianyou has become like this, he still decides to let go of the past.

Shen Yao looked at Huangfu Hao with some surprise.

Don't you dislike him?

Huangfuhao pushed up his glasses.

"I hate him, but that doesn't stop me from caring about him."

Shen Yao smiled helplessly, recalling the words of the surgeon she had spoken earlier that day, and sighed softly.

"It was supposed to be ten years, but that's no longer certain."

"Uncertain, what do you mean?"

Huangfu Hao's eyebrows furrowed upon hearing Shen Yao's words.

"Has the condition worsened again?"

Shen Yao gently shook her head. "It's not that it'll worsen, but the doctor said it's possible. So, whether or not I get a divorce is no longer important to me. I won't leave here. My child needs a father."

After hearing Shen Yao's explanation, Huangfu Hao became even more confused.

"Shen Yao, since Gu Tianyou doesn't have much time left, and you've decided to stay and be with him, why did you ask me to act in this charade?"

"Do you still hate him?"

When Huangfuhao said this, he himself found it unbelievable.

If Shen Yao still harbors hatred towards Gu Tianyou.

That would be truly terrifying.

How strong must one's willpower be to hate someone yet still choose to stay by their side?

Seeing the doubt and confusion in Huangfuhao's eyes, Shen Yao gave a bitter smile.

“I don’t know. Over the years, just when I thought I had finally broken free from this man, he always used his clutches to pull me back to his side.”

"Even someone as powerful as Bo Yuxiu was unable to stop him from harassing me."

"My feelings for him are complicated. He's another family member to me besides Grandpa Gu, and also the first person I ever loved. He certainly trampled on my body and soul; I loved him deeply and hated him, but..."

At this point, Shen Yao suddenly fell silent.

Huangfu Hao looked at Shen Yao, waiting for her to continue.

Shen Yao didn't say anything more.

Because Uncle Wang was standing at the door of the room, his eyes bloodshot.

"Uncle Wang, why are you back?"

"Shouldn't you be at the hospital?"

Huangfu Hao turned around and saw Uncle Wang, and nodded slightly to him.

Uncle Wang saw Huangfu Hao's luggage and placed it in the room, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

His lips moved, as if he wanted to ask Huangfu Hao something.

Finally, she turned her gaze to Shen Yao behind Huangfu Hao, "Young Madam, Young Master has thought it through."

"So fast?"

Shen Yao was somewhat surprised.

It wasn't even noon the next day yet.

Has Gu Tianyou made up his mind so quickly?

She walked past Huangfu Hao and came to Uncle Wang.

"Uncle Wang, what did he say?"

"Young Master said..."

Just as Uncle Wang was about to speak, he saw Huangfu Hao also looking over.

He immediately shut his mouth.

Shen Yao also noticed this subtle movement.

She knew that Uncle Wang wanted to talk to her alone.

Shen Yao turned to Huangfu Hao and said, "Uncle Wang and I have some private matters to discuss alone. After you finish packing your luggage, go wash up and get some rest."

Huangfu Hao nodded in agreement.

He had no choice but to agree, since Shen Yao had said it was a private matter, what else could he do?

Shen Yao and Uncle Wang went downstairs and arrived at the back garden.

There were only the two of them there.

Their conversation would not be known to a third person.

Looking at the black smoke rings around Uncle Wang, Shen Yao felt a bad premonition.

"Uncle Wang, tell me, what is his answer?"

With Shen Yao staring at him like that, Uncle Wang had nowhere to hide.

He sighed helplessly.

"The young master said he insists on a divorce. A divorce lawyer will come to the house today to discuss the divorce."

Shen Yao was stunned for a long time after hearing this answer.

After a long pause, she looked at Uncle Wang and asked, "Has he made up his mind?"

Uncle Wang nodded. "Yes, the young master said that he would try his best to meet your requests, young mistress."

Shen Yao sneered, "Demands?"

He curled his hand slightly at his side and continued, "Okay, I'll think about my request carefully."

Uncle Wang looked at Shen Yao in front of him, thinking she would be angry.

Unexpectedly, she just chuckled and turned to leave.

Uncle Wang didn't understand what Shen Yao was thinking, so he quickly called her back.

"Young Madam, do you want to divorce the young master?"

Shen Yao turned her head and gave Uncle Wang a deep look.

"Uncle Wang, it's Gu Tianyou who wants a divorce, not me. Haven't I made myself clear enough? Are you going to beg this man again, like before?"

“Young Madam, that’s not what I meant… I just wanted to say that perhaps you and Young Master didn’t have to come to this. Perhaps you just needed to sit down together and calmly communicate. Perhaps then things would take a turn for the better.”

"A turning point? Do I need this turning point? Uncle Wang, do you think I can't survive without Gu Tianyou?"

Despite Uncle Wang's desperate attempts to persuade her to stay, Shen Yao remained indifferent.

She had to do it.

Uncle Wang is indeed a good person, but in most cases, this good person only thinks from Gu Tianyou's perspective.

As for Shen Yao's interests and emotions, Uncle Wang always puts them last.

Sensing Shen Yao's cold attitude, Uncle Wang felt a little flustered.

"Young Madam..."

Just then, Uncle Wang's phone rang.

He apologized.

As soon as the call connected, a mature man's voice came through.

"Hello, I'm the divorce lawyer I booked, and I'm ready to go."
