Song Wanwan raised an eyebrow slightly, then relaxed it instantly, a faint smile playing on her lips. She calmly asked, "Uncle, I mean, if Gu Tingzhou and I were to divorce, would you support me?"

Shen Yunqing was somewhat shocked. She immediately stopped the car and turned to look at Song Wanwan.

"divorce?"

Song Wanwan said casually, "I mean, if."

It wasn't until a car horn sounded from the side that Shen Yunqing realized what was happening and restarted the car.

While others might not know about Song Wanwan and Gu Tingzhou's affair, Shen Yunqing knew it perfectly well.

His eldest niece is great in every way, except she's hopelessly in love. Once she's set her mind on someone, there's no going back, not even if you hit her hard enough.

But he also knew that this was not Song Wanwan's fault, but rather the fault of his older sister and brother-in-law, which had a profound impact on Song Wanwan.

Shen Yunqing's expression turned solemn, and she asked earnestly, "The reason?"

Song Wanwan sighed and said slowly, "Uncle, others may not know, but you know me. My obsession with Gu Tingzhou is too deep. I have loved him for almost eight years. You can warm a stone by touching it, so how can he remain so cold and indifferent?"

Shen Yunqing breathed a sigh of relief. "Did he upset you again? Didn't you wake up after a good night's sleep, full of energy, and rush over there again?"

Song Wanwan frowned and said indifferently, "After chasing after him for so many years, I haven't seen him change his opinion of me. Even the most resilient cockroach gets tired, and I feel tired."

"Trying to back out?"

Song Wanwan gave a bitter smile. "I wanted to give each other a break. No matter how hard you try, it's useless if someone doesn't love you. It's not like solving a problem, where you can just do it a few more times and study it more to find the answer. I've tried for so long and it's all been useless, which means I'm approaching the problem the wrong way. I feel powerless!"

Now that I've been reborn, and I've already tried to solve that problem but couldn't, I should try a different one.

Shen Yunqing was taken aback. "This doesn't sound like something you would say. Tell me honestly, what exactly happened?"

As expected, lawyers have very sharp intuition.

Song Wanwan hesitated for a moment, then said seriously, "Uncle, Gu Tingzhou's white moonlight has returned to the country, so there's even less possibility for me and Gu Tingzhou."

Song Wanwan had already tried to tell Bai Li once that she could see what would happen three years from now, but Bai Li didn't believe her.

She can't give the same reason again.

If Shen Yunqing said she had been reborn, she would probably drive straight to the hospital.

Shen Yunqing knew how Song Wanwan had pursued Gu Tingzhou back then. She had indeed given a lot. A person who gives unconditionally and doesn't get a response will eventually be overwhelmed by the accumulated disappointment and despair.

"Have you really thought this through? Do you really want a divorce?"

Song Wanwan nodded firmly, "Yes, a divorce is a must."

"Not turning back?"

"Never look back."

Shen Yunqing let out a sigh of relief and said with satisfaction, "You should have done this a long time ago. Back then, you were like a ghost, insisting on liking him and marrying him. I didn't think it was a good idea. Now that you've figured it out, it's good."

"I support you in getting a divorce, as long as you're happy."

Song Wanwan's nose tingled, tears welled up in her eyes, and she said, choking back sobs and filled with emotion, "Thank you, Uncle."

Shen Yunqing continued, "Don't get excited. This only represents my personal opinion, but your other two uncles and maternal grandfather may not think so. They just accepted your marriage, and now they suddenly want a divorce. Be careful of your maternal grandfather's heart condition."

Song Wanwan said with relief, "I will communicate with them slowly."

Shen Yunqing freed one hand and patted Song Wanwan's head, saying gently, "Wan'er, you are actually very outstanding. Just look back, there are many, many people who like you. If all else fails, your uncle will take care of you. Look how thin you are, you can eat me out of house and home."

After saying that, he laughed first.

Song Wanwan glared at him, then said with a relieved expression, "You're not going to support my aunt anymore? I heard that my aunt has reappeared."

Shen Yunqing coughed awkwardly and touched the tip of her nose. "Bai Li said that, right? Don't listen to her nonsense. She's just a client."

Song Wanwan clearly caught a hint of shyness in Shen Yunqing's words; something was brewing!

"My uncle is handsome, kind, and generous—a true elite. Anyone who doesn't like him is missing out!"

Shen Yunqing laughed happily, "My little princess still has good taste!"

The two chatted and laughed all the way to the Heng Hai Bridge, where Shen Yunqing rolled down the car window.

Song Wanwan turned to the side, placed her hands on the top of the car door, and stuck her head out of the car window. The breeze blew her hair, making it messy in the wind.

She looked up and saw the lighthouse emerging on the horizon, standing there steadfastly, no matter how you changed direction, it remained there.

When I was little, I often sat with Shen Yunqing by the lighthouse, waiting for my father to come and pick me up, because he had said that he would come to pick me up in a big ship.

But he never came.

Even as Song Wanwan grew up, she would often see a lighthouse in her dreams; it was a lighthouse that could never be far from her heart.

Shen Yunqing knew that Song Wanwan was thinking about her childhood again, so she deliberately said, "Can you see it? If not, I'm going to return the car."

Song Wanwan turned around abruptly and said with a light smile, "It's over. Once it's sold, it's non-refundable. Uncle, you're stuck with it."

Shen Yunqing looked regretful and disappointed.

Song Wanwan burst out laughing, but her eyes were filled with tears.

After crossing the Henghai Bridge and passing through a stretch of high-rise buildings, you will soon arrive at the seaside villa.

As soon as Song Wanwan got out of the car, she couldn't wait to rush to her maternal grandfather's house.

Shen Yunqing followed behind, carrying several bags, her eyes fixed on Song Wanwan. "Slow down, be careful not to fall."

When I saw Jianlang's grandfather in the yard, he was tending to the white roses in the yard.

Song Wanwan's nose tingled, and her eyes quickly filled with tears.

With a choked voice, she called out cautiously, "Grandpa..."

In my previous life, during the three years I spent in prison, I would always dream of returning to the seaside villa and snuggling in my grandparents' arms.

How terrifying, this must be a dream!

Shen Qingshan put down the scissors in his hand, turned to look in Song Wanwan's direction, smiled gently, and said with affection in his eyes, "Little princess, you're back. Come and see, the flowers that Grandpa planted are blooming so beautifully."

Song Wanwan walked quickly to Shen Qingshan and threw herself into his arms.

Shen Qingshan was taken aback at first, then tenderly stroked her back, "My little princess, what's wrong?"

Overwhelmed with longing and regret, Song Wanwan was unable to utter a single word. She nestled in her grandfather's warm embrace, suppressing her silent sobs.

Shen Qingshan looked at Shen Yunqing as she entered and gave her an inquiring look.

Shen Yunqing, carrying her things, shrugged at him.

"Wan'er, what's wrong? Did that brat Gu Tingzhou upset you?"

Shen Qingshan asked with heartache.

Song Wanwan has always had a cheerful and proud personality. She rarely cries unless she has suffered a great injustice.

The only one who could cause Song Wanwan any grievances was Gu Tingzhou.

Song Wanwan slowly stopped crying, her eyes red, and shook her head, saying, "No, I just haven't been back for too long and I miss Grandpa so much."

Shen Qingshan felt a mix of heartache and amusement. "You silly child, you want your grandpa to come see me anytime, or if he's too busy, I can come see you. Why are you crying like this? Did you really suffer some injustice?"

Song Wanwan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and gave a bright smile. "I'm not upset. I just had a dream where my grandfather was worried about me, and it made me very sad. I felt like I was being unfilial."

Shen Qingshan felt a little relieved, casually picked a rose and tucked it behind Song Wanwan's ear, saying lovingly, "It's so nice for a girl to smile. As long as my Wan'er is happy, it's all worth it for your grandfather to worry about."

Song Wanwan called out again, reluctantly, "Grandpa..."

Shen Qingshan quickly comforted him, "You've finally come back, so don't cry. Spend some time with Grandpa today."

"Ok!"
