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

Qi Muci took the phone back. "Precisely because we're family, we should be even more careful. Look at how many drinks you had last night. If I hadn't dragged you away, you probably wouldn't be seeing the sun today."

Zhao Mengmeng asked curiously, "Chairman Qi, why did you drink so much? Did you have a fight with your wife?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Mu'an's expression turned sorrowful, but he remained defiant, saying, "No, it's business. Don't pry into my business."

Zhao Mengmeng said with a smile, "Chairman Qi, although my acting skills are not very good, yours are even worse. Do you think you can fool us? Or are you just deceiving yourself?"

Ding Ding nudged Zhao Mengmeng with her elbow and glared at her, saying, "Even food can't shut you up. Is it your place to ask about the boss's business?"

Zhao Mengmeng pouted and stopped talking.

Qi Muci looked at his older brother meaningfully, "Some people are indeed deceiving themselves."

Qi Mu'an glared at her younger brother and angrily took a bite of her sandwich.

After breakfast, Qi Muci urged everyone to leave, saying to Qi Mu'an, "You should go now. Fu Chao is in the underground parking garage. Have him take you home to take a shower and change your clothes before going to work."

Qi Mu'an didn't want to leave. "Can't I rest for a day?"

Qi Muci looked at Qi Muan in surprise, "Are you sure you want to rest for a day? Sure, then go home and rest."

Qi Mu'an: "I'm not going back. There's no one at home. I'm going to stay here."

Qi Muci: "What are you doing here? Ranran will be packing her bags soon, and we'll be leaving too. You wouldn't happen to have your eye on Mengmeng, would you?"

Qi Mu'an: "What nonsense are you spouting? Fine, I'll leave."

Zhao Mengmeng and Ding Ding helped Qiao Ran pack her luggage.

Qiao Ran didn't have much stuff, and she finished packing quickly. Zhao Mengmeng looked at the pitiful few clothes in the box and couldn't bear to look at them anymore.

She turned around, grabbed an empty box, and picked out a bunch of her new clothes for Qiao Ran to pack.

Zhao Mengmeng: "Take all of these. I can't wear them all anyway. If you take them, I'll have an excuse to buy new ones."

Qiao Ran was moved and got up to hug Zhao Mengmeng. "You're so good to me, I don't want to leave. I want you to take care of me for the rest of my life."

Zhao Mengmeng pushed her away, "Go away, I don't want to support you, let your husband support you."

Qiao Ran smiled and said, "I'd better not take these clothes. Mu Ci said he's prepared new clothes for me."

Zhao Mengmeng was displeased. "What he prepared for you is his, what I gave you is mine, how can they be the same? What, do you think my clothes are too cheap?"

Qiao Ran smiled helplessly, "Are these clothes of yours cheap? I can't afford any of them."

Zhao Mengmeng: "It's not that you can't afford it, you earn more than me, okay? Seriously, remember to sue your mom and your brother to get those houses back. Then you can resell them and you'll be a rich woman."

Qiao Ran: "Yes, Mu Ci has already arranged for a lawyer to handle it. So I won't stand on ceremony and will take all these clothes."

Zhao Mengmeng: "Take them quickly, there are also bags and shoes, take whatever you like."

At this moment, Lin Mengchuan walked into the Lin family's dining room and greeted his family, "Dad, Mom, Grandma, good morning. Grandma, did you sleep well last night?"

Xu Ying rolled her eyes and sighed heavily.

Xu Ying: "What's so good about it? My perfectly good granddaughter-in-law was just kicked out like that. Now I have nightmares every night when I close my eyes. I really can't live like this anymore."

Shen Qingzhu's lips twitched. "Mom, you're exaggerating. Qiao Ran isn't a goddess; how could she guarantee you a good night's sleep?"

Xu Ying's eyes widened. "Isn't Ranran a fairy descended from heaven?"

Shen Qingzhu: "..."

Lin Zhihong shook his head helplessly, "Mom, can we just let bygones be bygones? The marriage is over, what are we supposed to do? Beg Qiao Ran and Meng Chuan to remarry?"

Xu Ying: "Okay, you three can go and beg Ranran for forgiveness. Maybe she'll come back."

Shen Qingzhu said unhappily, "Mom, I haven't done anything to wrong her, why do I have to beg her for forgiveness?"

Xu Ying: "Haven't you bullied her enough in the past two years? If it weren't for this old woman protecting her, she would have been driven away by you long ago. Shen Qingzhu, don't you have any sense at all?"

Lin Mengchuan couldn't stay any longer. "I'm full. You guys continue eating. I'm going to work."

Shen Qingzhu: "You haven't eaten a single bite, how can you be full?"

Lin Mengchuan: "I'm so angry with you guys."

Xu Ying pouted, "Eat it or don't, it's up to you."

Shen Qingzhu looked at her mother-in-law, so angry that she lost her appetite. "I'm full too. You can eat slowly."

Lin Zhihong said dejectedly, "Mom, look, it's just a perfectly good breakfast, and you have to say those things. If you do this every day, who can stand it? That's enough. Meng Chuan knows he was wrong."

Xu Ying: "What does he know? If he knew, why doesn't he go and win his wife back?"

Lin Mengchuan, who was standing at the restaurant entrance, heard everything clearly.

He paused for a moment, then stepped out the door. His grandmother was right; he had to go and win Qiao Ran back.

On the other side, Qiao Ran finished packing her things and prepared to leave. Qi Muci asked Fu Chao to come up and help her with her luggage.

Zhao Mengmeng and Ding Ding hugged Qiao Ran, not wanting her to leave.

Qiao Ran: "We'll be joining the production team together in a few days, and we'll all be in the same city. Don't you guys think that's a bit much?"

Zhao Mengmeng pouted, "How annoying! You promised to stay here with me, but then you suddenly got married. Now this house is all cold and quiet again."

Qiao Ran: "Then let Ding Ding move in with you."

Dingding: "No, it's too far from the company, and it's very inconvenient for me to go to work."

Qiao Ran: "Why don't you get a driver's license? I'll let you drive my car later."

Ding Ding: "No, I have a bad sense of direction, and I have to think about other people's safety."

Qi Muci stood to the side, smiling as he watched the three of them without interrupting.

Finally, Qiao Ran steeled herself and ran out the door. "Alright, if we don't leave now it'll be noon, and I still have to pack my things when we get there."

Qi Muci followed her out and thanked Zhao Mengmeng, "Mengmeng, thank you for taking care of Ranran during this time. I talked to the director and gave you a different role, to be the female lead's personal maid."

Zhao Mengmeng was overjoyed, "Really? Brother Qi, then I can film with Ranran until the end of the shoot?"

Qi Muci: "Yes, so you should also hurry up and read the script."

Zhao Mengmeng jumped up, "That's great, thank you Qi-ge. Ranran, I'm only doing this because of you, I love you to death."

Zhao Mengmeng hugged Qiao Ran and kissed her hard. "See you in a few days, let's go to film together!"

Qiao Ran smiled and said, "Alright, let's take advantage of this time to study the script. We're leaving now."

Zhao Mengmeng and Ding Ding waved happily, and after watching Qi Muci and Qiao Ran enter the elevator, the two of them excitedly shouted and jumped.

Dingding: "Mengmeng, you've finally made it through."

Zhao Mengmeng: "Thank God, thank Brother Qi and Ranran."

The two happily went inside and closed the door.

Ding Ding urged Zhao Mengmeng, "Go and read the script quickly. Your role has changed, so you have to read it again."

Zhao Mengmeng: "Okay, I'll go right away."

The two had only taken a few steps when the doorbell rang.

Zhao Mengmeng: "Did Ranran forget something?"

Ding Ding turned to open the door, only to see Lin Mengchuan standing at the door holding a bouquet of red roses.
