Mei Yusheng was stunned, not expecting Qin Chu to take on the task so readily.

Mei Yusheng felt bad that he had already agreed to invest in Xie Mingqi's matter, and now he also had to solve his younger brother's job problem. He couldn't let Xie Mingqi become a burden to him.

“No need, I know what I’m doing,” Mei Zichen waved his hand in refusal. “Yue Jiangting’s company is supported by his own family. Even if I wanted to leave, he wouldn’t trust me to stay.”

Mei Yusheng looked at him suspiciously: "You mean, Yue Jiangting did a lot of illegal things?"

Mei Zichen gave him a cryptic look: "You don't know that there are definitely a lot of shady dealings in the company's operations. As long as they're not exposed, everything will be fine. But if they are, at the very least, his company will have to go out of business."

Mei Yusheng gasped, "Then, if the company runs into problems in the future, will you be implicated as well?"

"Sigh, sis, don't worry about it," Mei Zichen said with a smile. "It's alright, it won't affect me. Even if the company goes bankrupt, I can still make a living anywhere with my biochemical processing technology."

"Oh, okay," Mei Yusheng nodded blankly, "That's good. As long as you're not implicated, I'm relieved. Yue Jiangting has done so many dirty things; he might capsize at any time."

“That’s right!” Qin Chu replied. “The new leadership team in the city has taken office, and many things will change. Even if my sister does nothing, Yue Jiangting’s company won’t last long.”

"Really? You have inside information?" Mei Zichen leaned forward and asked eagerly.

Qin Chu chuckled: "Yes, inside information. Regarding urban sewage treatment, the city is preparing to change the monopoly held by one company and adopt a bidding process. This way, whoever has the strength will be selected, instead of Yue Jiangting's monopoly for over twenty years."

Mei Zichen's eyes flashed with understanding: "Then I really need to hurry up and find a new way out for myself."

"So, sister, do whatever you want. Take advantage of this opportune moment and vent your anger!" Qin Chu looked at Mei Yusheng with a smile in her eyes, encouraging her.

During this time, the employment situation of her younger brother's family had been a heavy burden on Mei Yusheng's mind, making her hesitant. She worried that if she exposed Yue Jiangting's scandalous affairs, it would hurt those close to her.

But she still couldn't get over it: "If Yue Jiangting's illegal actions are found out, will he go to jail? And what about Yue Guangzhi?"

If the Yue family father and son are arrested, the first person to be affected will be her beloved grandson, Xiao Xuanxuan.

Qin Chu's expression was solemn: "Yes, if the circumstances are serious, the sentence could be five to ten years in prison, plus a fine. In more serious cases, the sentence could be life imprisonment and confiscation of property."

Mei Yusheng's eyes flashed with fear: "Ah! No!"

The image of Yue Guangzhi being handcuffed and imprisoned flashed through her mind, along with Xuanxuan's heart-wrenching cries. Her face was deathly pale, and her lips trembled as she cried, "No, I can't just stand by and watch them..."

“Sister,” Mei Zichen grasped Mei Yusheng’s hand, “I understand. I can’t bear to watch them get arrested either, even if they are really selfish and annoying. Besides, there’s also Xiao Xuanxuan. It’s not good for the child if Grandpa and Dad go to jail.”

Qin Chu sighed and gazed intently at Mei Yusheng: "Sister, don't worry, everything is up to you. We won't do anything against your wishes."

"Okay, that's good. I just want appropriate compensation, not to really put them in jail." Mei Yusheng felt a little more at ease, and a helpless smile appeared on her lips. "Am I really useless?"

Mei Zichen glanced at his sister: "You, no wonder Yue Jiangting bullies you, he just knows you can't bring yourself to be ruthless."

Mei Yusheng smiled bitterly. A mother is strong for her child; she is also weak for her child.

“I don’t care about anyone else, I only care about Xuanxuan. I’m afraid that the child will have to bear the changes in his family at such a young age.”

Mei Zichen's expression turned serious, and he silently ate a bite of food: "Yes, the child is innocent."

“Sister, bad people will get their comeuppance. Going to jail is too lenient for them.” Qin Chu’s deep eyes flashed with an ambiguous light. “You just need to be comfortable with yourself.”

With Mei Zichen and Qin Chu as her support, Mei Yusheng finally let go of her burdens and focused on getting a divorce and starting a new life.

After dinner, they chatted for a long time over tea. Mei Zichen and Qin Chu hit it off immediately, exchanged contact information, and began calling each other brothers.

Mei Zichen left at nearly 11 o'clock, and Qin Chu called a designated driver for him.

Feeling groggy, Mei Zichen got into the car and took a nap on the way. When they arrived at the gate of her residential complex, the driver woke her up.

Nanliyuan is a somewhat old neighborhood. Mei Zichen's family has lived here for more than ten years. They want to move to a new place, but they are used to it and are too lazy to make any changes.

Upon reaching the fifth floor, Mei Zichen had just entered three passwords when the door opened from the inside, revealing his wife Chen Yue's angry face: "Why are you back so late?"

Chen Yue grumbled under her breath, then went inside with her husband. She sniffed the air and frowned, saying, "Weren't you going to see your sister? Why were you drinking? Who were you drinking with?"

Mei Zichen walked unsteadily towards the bathroom: "I went to see my sister and also my brother. We drank some red wine, a 1985 Lafite. Tsk, the taste is just different!"

Chen Yue glared at him and said irritably, "Look at you! You've never seen the world before! What brother?"

Five minutes later, Mei Zichen came out of the bathroom and walked towards the bedroom: "Have you ever seen the world? Have you ever drunk 1985 Lafite? Do you even know what it tastes like?"

Chen Yue followed closely inside: "You haven't answered yet, what younger brother?"

"Oh, the younger brother my sister knows is a famous writer, the president of a publishing house, or the head of some kind of reading company. He's a very impressive person," Mei Zichen said while taking off his clothes. "Why aren't you asleep so late? Were you waiting for me?"

Chen Yue, not bothering to inquire about her younger brother, asked anxiously, "How can I sleep? What did my sister say?"

She forced Mei Zichen to sit up on the edge of the bed, staring intently at him: "After you left, I called Grandma Xiaozhi and said that my sister was being unreasonable this time and wanted a divorce! Why? What happened that made it to the point of divorce?"

"Sigh," Mei Zichen waved his hand irritably, "My brother-in-law cheated on me!"

"Ah!" Chen Yue exclaimed in surprise, then quickly covered his mouth, afraid of waking his daughter next door. His eyes flashed with terror. "How could this be!"

"He kept a mistress for twenty years!"

"What?" Chen Yue's eyes widened in disbelief, his face filled with disbelief. "Brother-in-law? This..."

In her mind, Yue Jiangting was the epitome of a good man: he could make money, was handsome, and was devoted in relationships. Although he sometimes had a bad temper, she believed it was the authority of a superior.

She had always envied her older sister, Mei Yusheng, a housewife with no skills or education. She was quite good-looking when she was young, but as she got older, her looks faded. Yet her husband had stayed by her side for decades and had no scandals outside.

She once exclaimed that her sister's life had been worthwhile.

But what was Mei Zichen saying just now?

Did Yue Jiangting keep a mistress for twenty years?

Doesn't that mean he betrayed Mei Yusheng as early as twenty years ago?

OMG! Yue Jiangting's image in her mind completely collapsed!

"So, what does your sister plan to do?" Chen Yue asked curiously.

"What else can we do? Of course, we'll get a divorce!" Mei Zichen said irritably.

Chen Yue's eyes flickered, and after a moment's hesitation, he said resolutely, "No! We absolutely cannot get a divorce!"
