After a wealthy woman went bankrupt, her live-in husband became her sugar daddy.

Seeing my resistance, Jiang Yichen's attitude was also very firm.

"You can only endure this. Once things have calmed down, they will naturally stop pursuing it."

I just think he's being ridiculous, and I absolutely will not accept this outcome.

"Impossible. This matter must be resolved. I absolutely cannot tolerate this."

No matter what Jiang Yichen says, I can't just give up like this.

Since it wasn't his reputation that was ruined, he could naturally remain indifferent and not concern himself with it.

After saying that, I didn't wait for his reply and stormed out the door.

If Jiang Yichen doesn't resolve this matter, I will naturally find my own way to do so.

I received good news as soon as I left Jiang Yichen's office.

After being on the run for many days, Ou Ou was finally caught.

When I learned about this, I was overjoyed.

If he is caught, I will have more peace of mind in the future.

After get off work, I returned home and saw a table full of dishes, with an exquisite birthday cake in the center.

I paused for a moment before suddenly remembering that today is my birthday.

I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a little sad. This seems to be the most shabby birthday I've ever had. Compared to Lin Nan's, it's like heaven and earth.

Before I could think any further, my mother came out of the kitchen carrying a plate of food, her face beaming with joy.

"You're back just in time. Go wash your hands and eat."

Suppressing the bitterness in my heart, I sat down next to my mother.

Mom put some food in my bowl, smiling and coaxing me, "Our Momo is another year older, may this year be smooth sailing for you too."

Seeing my mother like this, I don't know why, but I felt a pang of sadness.

My dad noticed my emotions and immediately felt a little guilty.

He covered his face and sighed, "Momo, it's all Dad's fault. Now I can only let you eat this kind of cake."

Afraid that my dad would misunderstand, I quickly ate the cake in big bites and hurriedly explained, "It's okay, Dad, I like it very much. As long as our family is together, that's all that matters."

My words of comfort helped my dad feel a little better.

My parents and brother sang me a birthday song in a very professional manner.

I blew out the candles and made a wish before I started eating.

Suddenly, my mother spoke up out of the blue.

"Momo, regardless of whether you and Jiang Yichen have a chance to get back together, your parents hope that you can work hard at the company. We can't force fate. Your parents just hope that you can always be healthy and safe."

As soon as I heard those words, I felt a surge of emotion welling up in my nose, and tears welled up in my eyes.

I forced myself to suppress these feelings before asking my mother.

"Mom is perfectly fine today, why are you suddenly bringing him up? We've been divorced for a long time, there's definitely no chance for us anymore."

Only after I asked her did my mother tell me the truth.

"Mom saw the announcement Jiang Yichen posted today. He posted it in the name of the company, saying that if anyone tries to spread rumors about you again, he will take legal action."

When my mom said these things, I almost instinctively denied it, "Mom, you must be mistaken. How could he possibly help me?"

Even so, I still picked up my phone to check.

Seeing the announcement, I realized that what my mother said wasn't a lie.

This surprised me somewhat; Jiang Yichen would actually help me at a time like this.

He still had the same attitude this morning.

I never expected things to change so drastically.

I started reading the comments under this announcement.

They discovered that some people below were even saying that Ou Ou was also discovered by Jiang Yichen's people.

I was even more surprised and couldn't help but reply to that comment.

[OP, is this news true? Wasn't OuOu arrested by the police?]

After I sent the message, I put my phone down again.

My mom continued only after I finished reading.

"Momo, it seems that Jiang Yichen still cares about you quite a bit."

Upon hearing this, I chuckled self-deprecatingly and immediately refuted my mother's words.

"Mom, stop joking. He's only posting this for the company's reputation. He would have done the same for anyone else."

Hearing what I said, my mother stopped bringing up the topic.

Just then, my phone screen suddenly lit up.

The person who posted the comment earlier replied to me.

[This news is absolutely true. My brother works in the police station, and he told me that Jiang Yichen's men led them to Ou Ou.]

After seeing this comment, I felt a mix of emotions.

I never imagined that Jiang Yichen would do so many things behind the scenes.

Thinking about all this, I couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Could it be that I really misunderstood Jiang Yichen before?

At 11 p.m., just as I was about to go to sleep, Shen Yan suddenly called me.

Looking at the number displayed on the screen, I was a little surprised, but I still answered the call.

As soon as the call connected, Shen Yan immediately extended an invitation to me, her tone tinged with excitement as she spoke to herself.

"Momo, it's your birthday today. Come out quickly, I'll take you out to have some fun."

I glanced at the time; I was originally planning to refuse.

But considering that we hadn't seen each other for a long time, I finally relented.

Shen Yan asked me to meet her at the beach.

When I arrived, I found that the beach had been carefully decorated.

Roses of various colors were placed on the beach, and there were also many fairy lights as decorations.

This setup doesn't look like it's to celebrate my birthday.

Seeing this, I really couldn't figure out what Shen Yan was up to.

I walked towards the set-up area, looked around, but still couldn't find any trace of Shen Yan.

This made me even more confused.

My instinct was to take out my phone and call her, but I kept getting a busy signal.

Just then, beautiful piano music filled the air.

The sudden sound caught me off guard, and my first instinct was to run away.

But before I had taken two steps, I saw a figure suddenly walking towards me from not far away.

Song Le held a large bouquet of roses in her hands, her eyes filled with tenderness.

His gaze remained fixed on me as he slowly walked towards me.

Seeing his expression, I immediately realized what he wanted to do.

Song Le stopped in front of me and gently and earnestly expressed her feelings.

"Gu Mo, I've always been rather timid and afraid to confess my feelings to you, fearing that I would push you further away. But today I've figured it out. I don't want to continue being friends with you like this. I want to be your lover and spend the rest of my life with you."

Hearing this confession, I felt a little embarrassed and didn't know how to respond.

Shen Yan suddenly appeared at this moment and stood aside, speaking loudly.

"Momo, promise him! Promise him! Be together! You two can be together!"

Shen Yan looked even more agitated than I was, the person involved.

Looking at the roses offered to me, I hesitated, unsure whether I should accept them.

After all, I've only ever considered Song Le as my good friend.

Seeing my hesitation, Shen Yan walked directly to my side and kept persuading me, "Gu Mo, you should find a man to protect you. That bastard Jiang Yichen is not worth it at all!"

Before I could answer, a deep, cold voice suddenly came from behind me.

Jiang Yichen lowered his gaze to us and asked coldly, "Who said I'm not worthy?"
