After the divorce, the aloof CEO begged me not to withdraw my investment.

Xu San stepped forward, blocking Ye Feng's path, and glared at Liu Jianli: "Watch your mouth! How dare you talk to Brother Feng like that?"

Liu Jianli smiled contemptuously, glancing sideways at Xu San: "Oh, I thought it was someone else? It's just Xu San. You've already been fired, what's there to be arrogant about?"

Xu San was taken aback and asked, "Fire me? You think you can just fire me like that? What right do you have to do that!"

Liu Jianli took out a cigarette, lit it slowly, and exhaled a smoke ring: "Firing a lowly employee like you is so easy, I don't even need to submit a report. And that Wu Dan, get out of here too!"

Xu San was furious, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked, and he was about to rush forward.

Ye Feng reacted quickly and grabbed him. Fighting now would only result in a loss.

Pulled back by Ye Feng, Xu San's anger intensified, but he was helpless. He could only glare hatefully at Liu Jianli.

Liu Jianli looked at Ye Feng smugly, his tone full of provocation: "Just wait, the HR department's notice will be coming down soon."

After saying that, he led the men away.

After Liu Jianli left, Xu San spat fiercely: "A petty person who has gotten his way!"

Ye Feng patted Xu San on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't take it to heart. I'll take care of the work."

Xu San nodded, understanding that Ye Feng would not treat him unfairly.

The two didn't say anything more, got into the car, and drove towards the old house.

Inside the car, Ye Feng remained silent. Liu Jianli's provocation made him uncomfortable.

Xu San kept stealing glances at Ye Feng. He understood that following Ye Feng was his best choice.

Downstairs from the old house, the street was lined with shady trees, and many neighbors sat in the shade chatting and enjoying the cool air. Mama Bear was also sitting among them, chatting about everyday things with a few of her old friends.

"I heard Xiaofeng is bringing his girlfriend home!"

"Really? Didn't you say you were still dating?"

"I heard it from my daughter-in-law; she said they've been living together for a while now!"

The mother bear listened to the discussion with a faint smile on her face, but didn't say anything more.

"I wonder where this girl is from, and whether she'll be easy to get along with."

"you do not say……"

The mother bear interrupted them calmly: "Everyone has their own blessings. As for me, I just hope he can live a good life."

After saying that, she got up and walked towards home.

After the mother bear walked away, the group of aunties started gossiping again.

"He must be from out of town, and he's too embarrassed to ask, so he said they're still dating."

"That's right, that's right, Sister Xiong is also concerned about her image and doesn't want to say it out loud..."

Mother Bear returned home and began bustling about, preparing to welcome Ye Feng and his girlfriend.

She didn't care about the neighbors' gossip; for her, Ye Feng's happiness was the most important thing.

After finishing tidying up, Mama Bear went to the door and looked towards the street corner, hoping to see Ye Feng.

Old Feng paced over, rubbed his hands together, and asked awkwardly, "Is Xiao Feng moving back?"

Upon hearing this, Mama Bear's face lit up with a smile: "Yes, Old Feng, why don't you come over for dinner tonight?"

Old Feng quickly waved his hand: "No, no, your family is having a reunion, I won't get involved."

Just then, a black sedan came to a steady stop in front of the old house.

The car door opened, and Ye Feng got out, carrying two large cardboard boxes.

"Mom," Ye Feng greeted Xiong Mama with a smile.

Old Feng looked Ye Feng up and down. This kid looked much more energetic than before.

"Is work going well?" Old Feng asked with concern.

"That's fine, Uncle Feng," Ye Feng replied briefly, then turned to Mama Xiong, "Mom, I'll move the things inside first."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xu San got out of the car, carrying several bags.

"Hello, Mom Bear!" Xu San greeted her warmly.

"Oh, good, good!" Mama Bear smiled from ear to ear.

Ye Feng introduced Xu San to Mama Xiong, and then together they carried the things into the house.

The aunties enjoying the shade under the trees all turned their gazes in this direction and whispered among themselves.

"Hey, this car looks pretty good!"

"You're right, Ye Feng has struck it rich?"

"This young man looks energetic, much better than the previous one!"

Ye Feng listened to the surrounding discussions, but his heart remained unmoved. He just wanted to finish moving the things as quickly as possible.

Xu San felt a little embarrassed and secretly glanced at Ye Feng.

Ten minutes later, the items were moved and Ye Feng and Xu San prepared to leave.

"Are you leaving already?" Mama Bear asked, a little reluctant. "Little Xu, won't you stay for dinner?"

Ye Feng smiled and said, "We have some things to do, maybe next time."

Xu San chimed in, "I'll definitely come next time."

Although the mother bear was displeased, she did not insist on keeping her any longer.

Just as Ye Feng turned to leave, Mama Bear suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, Feng, what time does Qingyi get off work today?"

Ye Feng paused. He hadn't expected Mama Xiong to suddenly bring up Liu Qingyi.

How should I answer this?

Ye Feng's brain was working at lightning speed.

He didn't want Mama Xiong to worry, and he didn't want her to know the truth about his relationship with Liu Qingyi.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Feng said, "We have to work overtime today. You guys eat first tonight, don't wait for us."

Mama Bear paused for a moment, somewhat puzzled: "We're moving today, how can we not eat together?"

Ye Feng explained, "Let's eat first. If it doesn't work out, we can eat another day. We won't eat at home then; Qingyi and I will treat you to a meal together."

After saying that, without waiting for Mama Bear to say anything more, Ye Feng had already strode out of the old house gate.

Xu San followed closely behind.

Afterwards, Ye Feng went to the police station.

After completing the visitation procedures, Ye Feng finally met Feng Xiaoqian.

The iron bars divide the visiting room into two worlds.

Ye Feng sat to one side, holding the files on Feng Xiaoqian's case in his hand, his expression calm.

Feng Xiaoqian sat dejectedly opposite him, his hair disheveled, his beard unkempt, looking quite disheveled.

"What are you here for?"

Ye Feng placed the documents on the table: "Let's talk."

Feng Xiaoqian sneered: "With you? There's nothing to talk about."

Ye Feng frowned slightly: "So you don't want to go out?"

Feng Xiaoqian suddenly stood up, his voice trembling with emotion: "Don't fucking lie to me! You're the one who caused all this trouble for me today!"

Ye Feng remained calm, but his eyes were cold: "You are in this situation entirely because of your own fault, and it has nothing to do with me."

At this moment, a policeman standing nearby shouted sternly, "Sit down! Speak properly!"

Feng Xiaoqian reluctantly sat down, glaring fiercely at Ye Feng.

Feng Xiaoqian was filled with resentment. He blamed Ye Feng for all the mistakes and believed that Ye Feng was the one who had brought him to this state.

Ye Feng understood Feng Xiaoqian's current emotions, but he had to make Feng Xiaoqian face reality.

"Even if you hate me, you have to think about what will happen to you in the future. Your career is definitely over, and you'll have to start all over again after you get out. But what about your family?"
