After the divorce, my ex-husband's cousin tricked me into getting a marriage certificate.

Qiao Ran took out her ID and handed it to the staff member.

Lin Mengchuan remained seated.

Qiao Ran turned to Lin Mengchuan and said, "Young Master Lin, please show me your identification."

Lin Mengchuan raised his eyes and stared at Qiao Ran for a while before reluctantly throwing his ID in front of the staff.

This includes the divorce agreement that Qi Muci sent to his company.

After reviewing the documents, the staff member went to look at the divorce agreement. When she saw the property division clause, she hesitated for a moment, glanced at Qiao Ran, and hesitated to speak.

Qiao Ran sensed what the staff member was thinking and deliberately asked, "Do you have any questions about this agreement?"

The staff member smiled awkwardly and asked Qiao Ran, "Are you divorcing voluntarily? Do you agree to the property division in this agreement? Are you sure you want to waive alimony?"

"Yes, I am doing this voluntarily," Qiao Ran answered firmly, her face resolute and leaving no room for doubt.

The staff member glanced at Lin Mengchuan with disdain in his eyes.

It turns out the saying that rich people are stingy is true. He cheated on his wife and divorced her, and didn't even give her a penny of alimony. He's really a scumbag.

Thinking of the grievances Qiao Ran had endured, the staff couldn't wait to help her end this nightmarish marriage.

No wonder Qiao Ran wore red to handle the divorce proceedings; what's the point of keeping such a scumbag around?

In less than five minutes, two divorce certificates were placed in front of Qiao Ran and Lin Mengchuan.

Qiao Ran felt a sense of relief at that moment, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She picked up one of the books, flipped through it, and said, "This is mine. I'll put it away."

After saying that, she smiled at the lovely staff member and said, "Thank you, you've worked hard."

The staff member seemed flattered and quickly replied, "You're welcome, Ms. Qiao. If you return to acting, I will definitely support you. I grew up watching your shows, and I really want to see you act again."

Qiao Ran beamed, "Would you like a photo and an autograph?"

The staff member showed a joyful expression, but then suddenly remembered that the leader was still standing next to them, and glanced at the leader fearfully.

Qiao Ran smiled and said, "You have already finished your work, so it's not working hours now. Besides, I was the one who extended the invitation to you, and I believe the leader is a reasonable person and won't mind."

The leader, who was suddenly called out, hurriedly said, "I don't mind, I don't mind."

The staff quickly stood up, holding their phones to take a photo with Qiao Ran, but she hesitated whether to take a selfie or ask someone else to take it for her, as it wouldn't be appropriate to ask anyone else.

Qi Muci reached out his hand and said, "Let me take the picture for you. Boss, you can take the picture too."

Upon hearing this, the leader immediately stepped over with a smile and waved for the other staff members to come over and take a group photo.

They were happily taking photos together, completely ignoring Lin Mengchuan's dark expression.

Lin Mengchuan held the divorce certificate in his hand, feeling very uneasy.

Ten minutes ago, he and Qiao Ran were husband and wife, but now they are strangers.

Seeing her standing so dazzlingly in the crowd made him feel even more suffocated.

She was so dazzling; she originally belonged to him.

After taking a group photo with the staff, Qiao Ran took a photo with each of them individually and signed their names.

After Qiao Ran finished taking photos, it was Qi Muci's turn to take photos and sign autographs with everyone.

After satisfying all the staff's requests, the two left surrounded by bodyguards.

Lin Mengchuan followed behind and watched Qiao Ran get into Qi Muci's nanny car in the parking lot, angry that Qiao Ran didn't turn around to say goodbye.

"Qiao Ran, you'll regret this," he cursed inwardly.

Xu Qing was puzzled when he saw Lin Mengchuan come to his door early in the morning. Seeing the other party's gloomy face, he guessed the reason and hurriedly woke up the woman lying in the bedroom and sent her away.

After seeing the woman off, Xu Qing returned to the living room and asked Lin Mengchuan, who was sitting on the sofa smoking in silence, "Coffee or alcohol?"

Lin Mengchuan didn't say anything, but pulled the divorce certificate out of his suit jacket and threw it on the table.

Xu Qing raised an eyebrow, turned around and poured two glasses of wine. She placed one of them in front of Lin Mengchuan and clinked glasses with it: "Brother Chuan, congratulations on becoming single again. Believe me, you can't imagine the joy of being single."

Lin Mengchuan raised his eyes and looked at Xu Qing: "Was that woman your girlfriend just now?"

Xu Qing: "Of course not, we were just hanging out together. Brother Chuan, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you're too old-fashioned. What kind of society are we living in now? You should be more open-minded. It's because of this that you feel so miserable."

"What nonsense are you talking about? When have I ever felt pain?" Lin Mengchuan denied.

Xu Qing: "Fine, fine, you're not in pain? If you're not in pain, why did you run away abroad for two years after the wedding? Wasn't it just because you were angry with your grandmother?"

"If it were me, with a beautiful wife like Qiao Ran to warm my bed, I wouldn't go."

Lin Mengchuan's eyes darkened further. "If you keep spouting nonsense, I'll cripple you. You're tired of living, aren't you?"

Xu Qing: "No, Brother Chuan, I'm trying to comfort you. Don't be angry. I just want to tell you that there are plenty of women out there, all kinds. You don't need to be sad because you lost Qiao Ran."

"There's no need to worry about someone like Lin Fei. I've already sent someone to warn him. They should be at Lin Fei's house by now. Have a couple of drinks to calm yourself down. They'll call me when they're done dealing with this."

The Lin family at this time.

Lin Fei and his family of three sat on the sofa, looking at the five burly, fierce-looking men opposite them. Their legs trembled uncontrollably, and none of them dared to utter a sound, fearing that they would be silenced.

The man in the lead spat on the ground, cleared his throat, and asked, "Do you know why we're here?"

Cai Lianfang shook her head, "Have you got the wrong person?"

The man raised an eyebrow at Lin Fei and asked, "Is her name Lin Fei?"

Cai Lianfang glanced at her daughter and suddenly realized, "I know, you were sent by Song Yuhe! That old bitch Song Yuhe, it's not enough that she does it herself, she has to send you to cause us trouble."

Man: "What Song Yuhe? We are Young Master Lin's people."

Lin Fei was dumbfounded. "Lin Mengchuan? Impossible, how could Mengchuan do this to me?"

The man chuckled mockingly, "Stop trying to flatter yourself. Who do you think you are? Alright, I'm not going to beat around the bush anymore. Now I'll convey Young Master Lin's message to you."

"Young Master Lin can arrange a nice apartment for you. Remember, it's for you to stay in, not a gift. He will also give you 50,000 yuan a month for living expenses until your child turns eighteen."

"Then Young Master Lin will take the child back to the Lin family."

"What? Fifty thousand?" Cai Lianfang exclaimed in a shrill voice, "Are you trying to fob me off? How can such a small amount of money be enough?"

The man squinted. "Do the three of you have a combined monthly income of 50,000 yuan? I doubt it's even 10,000. Otherwise, why would you live in such a dilapidated house?"

Cai Lianfang pouted, "That's our business, one thing at a time. My daughter is carrying the Lin family's child. The Lin family has assets worth hundreds of millions, and they're trying to fob us off with this little bit of money? How can they be so shameless?"

The man shook his head and laughed, "Ma'am, you're really shameless. It's true that the Lin family has assets worth hundreds of millions, but did you contribute a single penny? What does it have to do with you?"

Cai Lianfang choked.

Lin Dahai sighed and asked, "So, Young Master Lin, you mean you won't marry my daughter?"
