As soon as the door was opened, clothes were scattered all over the floor, and the figures of a man and a woman were intertwined on the bed, a white expanse.

The woman on the couch covered her face and screamed.

Looking at the scene before her, Zhou Liyun felt a pang of pain in her heart, even though she had prepared herself mentally.

Enraged, she pointed at the two of them and yelled, "You two shameless scoundrels, how dare you cheat on me at home!"

The two hastily threw on their clothes, and the daughter of the Water Conservancy Bureau Chief Clerk was already shedding tears.

Tian Guang felt both ashamed and angry, having been caught red-handed for his daytime infidelity.

This shameless slut even brought two other people with her. Upon closer inspection, they were both wives of officials, and she was filled with alarm.

This is really embarrassing.

Enraged, Tian Guang pointed at Zhou Liyun's nose and yelled, "You shameless woman, haven't you made enough of a scene?!"

Zhou Liyun laughed angrily: "Have I made enough of a scene? You indulge in debauchery in broad daylight, inviting harlots to your bed, and you still have the nerve to talk back?"

The woman was both ashamed and angry when she heard Zhou Liyun call her a slut, and she bit her lower lip tightly.

Seeing his lover's state, Tian Guang felt bullied by his tigress, so he retorted, "Who do you think you are, talking about Wanrou? She's a thousand times, ten thousand times better than you!"

"You've been childless all these years, occupying the position without laying a single egg, constantly angering my mother! Today I'm divorcing you, you filthy woman!"

Although the hardships of the past years had long since diminished her feelings for Tian Guang, Zhou Liyun still felt as if she were being stabbed in the heart when she heard her husband say such things about her.

He actually defended this little bitch in front of her, belittled her to nothing, and even wanted to divorce her!

That fortune-telling girl was right!

"Divorce me? Not so easy! I don't want to be with you anymore either, but I can grant you two your wish! However, it has to be a divorce!" Zhou Liyun said through gritted teeth, her eyebrows raised.

The two ladies, perhaps finding the scene too intimate, were already waiting outside the door.

However, Tian Guang could still see the two figures moving around, which made him much more clear-headed.

Yes, at this age, he's still thinking about divorcing his wife.

Now that he has been caught in the act of debauchery by the two ladies in broad daylight, his crime has been confirmed. If he were to try to smear this slut in the future, she would turn around and accuse him of having an affair. With the two ladies of the official family as witnesses, no one would believe him.

However, since Zhou Liyun took the initiative to propose a divorce, he was more than happy to accept it.

However, if today's events were to get out, it would likely damage my reputation.

It's best to coax Zhou Liyun into talking right now.

So he straightened his clothes, took a deep breath, and said to Zhou Liyun, "Liyun, I'm sorry for what happened today. Since you want a divorce, I'll agree. But if this gets out, it won't be good for the reputation of either of our families, so let's not make a big deal out of it."

Zhou Liyun looked at him coldly, feeling that this matter was indeed very shameful. If word got out, although it wasn't her fault, it would inevitably become fodder for gossip.

The Zhou family still needs to run their business, and she can't let herself affect their business.

Besides, that woman is the daughter of the Registrar of the Water Conservancy Bureau, so it's not good to offend her too much.

With two ladies here today, it's likely that Tian Guang won't be able to smear her anymore.

However, simply getting a divorce would be too lenient on these two adulterers.

So he said coldly, "Tian Guang, I can keep this matter quiet and save your face. But I have conditions."

Tian Guang frowned. What kind of trouble is this old hag up to?

"Almost all the property in this house belongs to the Zhou family. If we divorce, all the property will belong to me."

Tian Guang's face darkened. This damned woman, what kind of joke is this? All the property goes to you, and I'm supposed to starve?

Zhou Liyun looked at him, knowing he wouldn't agree easily.

"If you disagree, you can make a big fuss about this. I'll go to your superiors to settle this matter and see if it's right or wrong for you to abandon your first wife after becoming an official, find another woman, and still spend your ex-wife's money."

“I’m not afraid of losing face. I wonder if you, sir, are too thin-skinned to handle it?” Zhou Liyun looked at Tian Guang with sarcasm.

Tian Guang's expression darkened.

If this matter escalates to the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, he will lose all face. How will he ever be able to hold his head high among his colleagues again?

A self-righteous intellectual like him cares most about saving face.

Moreover, he dislikes it most when people say that he used to be supported by his wife.

So he said, "The property is yours to keep. I have an official position and receive a salary from the imperial court. I won't spend your money."

Hearing this, the daughter of the chief clerk of the water administration was extremely anxious.

The reason you can live a life of luxury is because of your wife.

He had planned to divorce her and take her assets.

But now, they don't want a single penny! Am I supposed to starve from now on? Do you expect my family to subsidize me?

My father doesn't know about this yet. If he knew I was going to marry into such a family, he would definitely break my legs!

However, since Tian Guang had already spoken, and she was not yet married into the family, and they were in someone else's house with two other wives outside, it was really inconvenient for her to speak up.

On that day, Zhou Liyun called her parents over, and the two signed a divorce agreement.

As a result, the house still belonged to Zhou Liyun.

Tian Guang and his mother were slinked out.

They left behind all their gold, silver, and valuables, as well as their servants and maids.

Tian Guang returned to his old house, which was very small, bare, and leaky.

With the divorce settled and both wives gone, Zhou Liyun felt a void in her heart.

Thinking of the girl who told his fortune, he felt that she was simply a divine being.

He even knew that he would run into Tian Guang and that slut engaging in lewd acts in broad daylight when he returned.

He came up with a very good solution: he took two officials' wives to catch them in the act of adultery, and they eventually got a divorce.

Zhou Liyun wondered, who exactly is this fortune-telling girl?

I've heard that some immortals descend to earth and take mortals as their disciples.

Could this girl be in this situation?

I must pay a proper visit to express my gratitude tomorrow.

Oh, and the girl also mentioned that her younger brother would be the runner-up in the imperial examination.

After what happened today, she completely believed what the girl said.

Tomorrow they would know the results of the imperial examinations. Thinking of her younger brother's success, Zhou Liyun felt happy again.

There were only two children in their family, her and her younger brother Zhou Yonglu, and the two siblings had a very good relationship.

Zhou Liyun's husband's family was sometimes bullied, and her younger brother even beat up Tian Guang twice.

She figured her brother had already gone home by now, so she couldn't wait to go back to her parents' house to tell him the good news.

Both her father and mother were present when they divorced, and Zhou Liyun went back with them.

When they arrived at her parents' house, her younger brother was indeed already home.

Her younger brother, Zhou Yonglu, was tall and strong with a slightly dark complexion.

Seeing that her parents and sister had returned, and that they all looked unwell, she quickly asked what had happened.

"Tian Guang and I are divorced," Zhou Liyun said bluntly.

Zhou Yonglu looked surprised, but he was also relieved for his sister, who had finally gotten rid of that scoundrel Tian Guang.

Zhou Liyun told Zhou Yonglu about how she caught him in the act of adultery, while her parents listened nearby.

After he finished speaking, Zhou Yonglu was furious and really wanted to beat that bastard up again!

At this moment, Zhou Liyun's mother spoke up: "Liyun, how did you know that Tian Guang would be doing something illicit with that little slut at home today, and even brought two people to catch them in the act?"

The mother finally asked the question that had been bothering her.
