After a blind date, a wealthy heir asked me to marry him.

On the way back to the company by taxi.

Lu Shuyao received a call from her sister.

During their casual conversation, she told her sister about her earlier meeting with Lin Xiaoshan.

Upon learning that her sister and the mistress had only exchanged a few words and had not clashed, Lu Shiyi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Yaoyao, are you planning to confront Li Haokai directly?" Lu Shiyi asked on the other end of the phone.

When the younger sister went to see Lin Xiaoshan, she was indirectly telling Li Haokai: I know you're cheating on me.

Stop pretending, stop hiding. Just do what you're supposed to do and stop being so hypocritical.

"Ah."

Lu Shuyao paused for a moment, then continued, "Sister, I plan to file for divorce with Li Haokai tonight. I know he's transferring assets, so the divorce process might not be smooth, but I just want to start the process as soon as possible, the sooner the better."

Previously, she had been thinking and mentioning in her heart that she wanted a divorce, but she had not really made up her mind to tell the man she had been dating for three years and married for one year.

She knew that once she spoke, it would signify the end of their relationship, and Li Haokai would never try to stop her; in fact, he would be happy if she brought it up herself.

She was unwilling to let her marriage, which had lasted only a year, end like this, and always felt that there might still be a chance.

But now, she doesn't want to think about anything else; she just wants to cut her losses as soon as possible.

All that man could offer her was a chilling coldness, nothing more.

Perhaps, love is like this: only when you've hit yourself so many times that you're bleeding and there's nothing left to hit, do you realize you should turn back.

Judging from her tone, Lu Shiyi knew that her younger sister had made up her mind. She instructed her, "Take good care of yourself. If anything happens, remember to tell me and your brother-in-law. We'll solve it together. Don't try to handle it all by yourself."

"Yes, I will, don't worry, sis."

The two sisters chatted for a long time until Lu Shuyao returned to the company.

……

Study room.

After Lu Shiyi ended her call with her sister, Tang Yiran, who was standing nearby, asked, "Is Yao Yao planning to get a divorce?"

She overheard some things from the side and had already guessed the general idea.

"Yes, she plans to bring it up with Li Haokai tonight."

As Lu Shiyi spoke, he opened his laptop and started searching on the web.

She wasn't sure if her sister's situation would be complicated by divorce.

Especially considering Li Haokai's questionable actions, he'll probably have to go to court.

"Thumbs up for Yao Yao! That scumbag Li Haokai should have been dumped a long time ago," Tang Yiran said.

The bizarre behavior of Li Haokai's family during Lu Shuyao's hospitalization last time was quite an eye-opener for her.

She even developed a fear of marriage during that period.

"What are you looking up?" Tang Yiran noticed her friend searching for something on the computer and couldn't help but feel curious.

“Li Haokai has also transferred assets behind the scenes. I don’t think Yao Yao will be able to get a divorce anytime soon. I’ll look into similar cases online so that Yao Yao can prepare in advance.”

"Huh?" Tang Yiran looked at her friend.

"That scumbag Li Haokai is transferring assets? That stingy man is quite cunning. Is he trying to transfer all his money to support that mistress? Anyone who can interfere in someone else's marriage and become a mistress is definitely a bloodsucker. I don't believe in true love. I hope that mistress drains that scumbag dry, so he'll cry his eyes out and regret it to death. He doesn't even know how to cherish such a good girl like Yao Yao. He's completely heartless. And that mistress isn't any better..."

Tang Yiran kept rambling on and on, and she didn't even know what she was saying. In short, the more she cursed, the more agitated she became.

"Yaoyao's divorce will probably involve a lawsuit. If she needs a lawyer, just let her know. My parents know a lot of qualified lawyers. They'll definitely make that scumbag cry and feel sorry for him."

"Putting everything else aside, Yao Yao's pregnancy and miscarriage damaged her body so much that giving him half of his property is already too good for him. Don't think that this is what women should do. If I were to use half of his property to buy his health and let him have a go through the gates of hell, let's see if he would be willing."

As Tang Yiran was speaking, she suddenly asked, "But does that guy have a lot of assets? Why would he need to secretly transfer them?"

Lu Shiyi replied: "Fu Cheng asked a friend to get evidence of the scumbag transferring assets, and judging from that, there is indeed a lot of it."

Specifically, it's much more than I imagined.

To outsiders, Li Haokai is just a technical supervisor, earning a fixed salary each month, with maybe some mid-year and year-end bonuses, enough to make a comfortable living, but probably not much savings, since he bought his house with a loan.

But in reality, he has nearly a million in savings, not including funds and stocks.

The reason he had so much money was that, in addition to his income as a technical supervisor, he also took on private jobs, some of which even touched on gray areas.

Of course, Fu Cheng's friend found all of this by following the clues.

Lu Shiyi felt that this could be used as the last bargaining chip to get to Li Haokai, that scumbag.

"By the way, what did you want to talk to me about today?" Lu Shiyi asked.

When her best friend Tangtang came over, she was on the phone.

After hanging up, we continued talking about Yao Yao, and only then did I remember to ask my friend.

"It's nothing, I just wanted you to come with me to see a movie, hehe." Tang Yiran linked arms with her friend, smiling ingratiatingly.

"A movie?" Lu Shiyi glanced at the time. "I still have to..."

As she was speaking, Tang Yiran pulled her up and led her outside. "Oh dear, your study hall doesn't need you to personally oversee things anymore. A new movie just premiered today, by my favorite director. It's been five years, and he's finally released another masterpiece. I really can't wait any longer. Come with me!"

Lu Shiyi was dragged to the door by her best friend. "The study hall really doesn't need me that much anymore, but I have other things to do. You go alone..."

She was halfway through her sentence when Tang Yiran interrupted her with a cute pout, "Watching it alone is no fun! Such a great film should be watched with your best friend, come on, come on..."

Finally, Lu Shiyi compromised, arranged things at the study hall, and got into the car with her friend.

But she didn't forget to take the opportunity to give her friend a pep talk.

Lu Shiyi then spoke up, "Tang Tang, guess who called me the other day?"

They started with a roundabout approach.

Tang Yiran, who has always loved gossip, lit up when she heard this.

She asked repeatedly, "Who? Who called you? It wasn't one of those people who had a crush on you before, was it?"

Tang Yiran, who was driving, couldn't help but chuckle.

She especially enjoyed listening to her best friend's gossip.

When she was in college, she often heard similar gossip. Every time she saw her friend's smug yet worried little expression, she couldn't help but laugh. It was so cute.

However, just as she was having a good time, she heard Lu Shiyi say leisurely, "Auntie, that is, your mother."

Tang Yiran: "..."

She understood what Lu Shiyi meant without him having to say it.

He immediately withdrew his grin, "Eleven, my mom's been nagging me so much I want to escape Earth. You're not planning to become her accomplice and join in the nagging, are you?"

Lu Shiyi shook his head seriously, "Of course not. I just think that resisting head-on like this isn't a solution. I have a brilliant plan that you might want to try."

"What brilliant plan?" Tang Yiran asked curiously.

"You remember Fu Cheng's friend, right? He's also being pressured by his family to get married..."
