The mistress has no feelings, why do you provoke her?

Outside the cell, Song Wenjun looked at Gu Huaizhou with a mocking expression.

A smile gradually crept into his bright eyes, a contemptuous look from the victor toward the vanquished.

She took two steps forward and stopped in front of Gu Huaizhou, her smile deepening: "My lord, what are you saying?"

Gu Huaizhou took in the expression on her face; he saw Song Wenjun's mockery of him.

But now, he can't care about that anymore.

He reached out, wanting to grab Song Wenjun's hem, but Song Wenjun took a step back, and he missed.

He reached out and pleaded, "Wenjun, please save me. I promise I'll treat you well from now on."

In the face of life and death, dignity means nothing.

Gu Huaizhou's eyes darted around, and he said urgently, "Don't you have money? As long as you're willing to spend money to smooth things over, you can get me out of here. At worst, you can spend all your wealth. Anyway, you know how to make money. Wouldn't it be better for the three of us to live a peaceful life?"

"Gu Huaizhou." Song Wenjun smiled coldly: "Who do you think you are? What do you have that makes me want to squander my entire fortune for you?"

“I was wrong before, but I am still the father of the child.” Seeing that he could not move Song Wenjun, Gu Huaizhou tried to appeal to her emotions: “If this matter is not handled properly, I will definitely be dismissed and may even be exiled. Wenjun, you must save me for the sake of the child.”

Song Wenjun chuckled softly and said to him, "We've been husband and wife, I would never abandon you..."

"Yes, yes, I knew you wouldn't abandon me. Wenjun, I was wrong before. I was bewitched. I will never do that again. I will treat you well. Please believe me and give me another chance, okay?"

However, the next second a piece of paper appeared in front of Gu Huaizhou.

The words "Divorce Agreement" were written prominently on it.

All of Gu Huaizhou's enthusiasm vanished at that moment. He looked at Song Wenjun with a panicked expression and asked uncertainly, "What... what do you mean?"

"Lord Marquis has been locked up for several days, has he gone mad from being locked up?" Song Wenjun pointed to the words on it and said, word by word, "A divorce agreement, can't you see it?"

Gu Huaizhou instantly became furious: "You want a divorce?"

“Otherwise what? Now that the Marquis is in danger because of you, what can I, a weak woman, do? I can only do my best to protect myself and my child.” Song Wenjun squatted down and said in a low voice, “Gu Huaizhou, think it over carefully. You will definitely lose your title, and the Marquis’s mansion will also be severely damaged after this incident. The only way out is for us to divorce to preserve the bloodline and family business of the Marquis’s mansion.”

Song Wenjun handed a pen to Gu Huaizhou: "Once your crimes are proven, my child, the Marquis's mansion, and I will all be implicated. Can you bear to see the child suffer innocently and be exiled to the harsh northwest with you?"

Gu Huaizhou's eyes darted around helplessly: "You said I would be exiled to the Northwest, where did you hear that rumor from?"

"This is just my guess. It is also the old Marquis's intention that you and I divorce."

"What does Father mean?" Gu Huaizhou suddenly broke down, crying and laughing at the same time: "Is this how he protects the Marquis's mansion, abandoning me alone?"

Song Wenjun sneered: "Actually, you've already guessed it, so why deceive yourself anymore?"

Gu Huaizhou was still unwilling: "What about my mother? She won't just stand by and watch me end up in prison. And Gu Mengxue is now a noblewoman, and Gu Qinghe has entered the palace. Don't these two good-for-nothings have any ideas?"

"Although Gu Qinghe has entered the palace, she is only a minor concubine. Gu Mengxue is too busy trying to distance herself from you, so why would she want to get herself into trouble because of you?"

"As for the First Madam, Father has already confined her to the courtyard, so even if she wanted to help, she couldn't. Now, only I can save you."

Through the cell door, Song Wenjun's eyes were sharp: "If you weren't so foolish, how could you have implicated my son and me? Now you're still hesitating because you want my son and me to suffer with you?"

“Gu Huaizhou, Gu Jinyan is the eldest grandson of the Marquis’s family. Once he is exiled, his life is over.”

Gu Huaizhou slumped against the cell door, and after a long while, he nodded resignedly: "I'll sign, but I have one request."

"You said."

"I want you to swear that you will protect Gu Jinyan no matter when or where, and that you will not let him suffer the slightest grievance. When he grows up, you will return the Marquis's mansion and your family property to him. Can you do that?"

Even at this point, Gu Huaizhou was still scheming to seize her family's assets.

If Song Wenjun hadn't switched her child back, she would probably still be being used now.

Looking at Gu Huaizhou's sinister and cunning face, Song Wenjun suddenly found him very funny.

Now, the one who has been kept in the dark all along is him.

He, however, believed that he had outsmarted himself and gained everything.

“My son, of course I will make plans for him. Whether it is the Marquis’s mansion or my property, it can only belong to Yan Yan alone.”

Hearing Song Wenjun's words, Gu Huaizhou breathed a sigh of relief and held out his hand: "Give me the divorce papers."

Song Wenjun handed him the divorce papers.

Gu Huaizhou carefully examined the words on the document, and only after finding nothing amiss did he pick up the pen and sign it.

While he was writing, Song Wenjun clenched her palms tightly, her whole body trembling slightly with nervousness.

She had been waiting for this day for far too long.

Fortunately, God had eyes and finally granted her wish.

Gu Huaizhou, you have only yourself to blame for ending up in this state.

Before long, the divorce papers were slipped through the crack in the door and returned to Song Wenjun's hands.

Gu Huaizhou's signature was already written on it; it was just waiting to be sent to the government office for stamping.

Song Wenjun carefully put away the divorce papers, and before leaving, she said, "The old Marquis has already expelled you from the Marquis's mansion. From now on, your life and death are no longer related to the Marquis's mansion."

"What? Is Father really so heartless?"

However, Song Wenjun stopped answering him and quickly left the prison with the divorce papers in her hand.

Behind him came Gu Huaizhou's desperate roar: "Come back! Come back and explain yourself! Come back..."

Gu Huaizhou's roar echoed from the empty cell, but his roar quickly turned into screams of agony.

The jailer whipped him hard, saying, "What are you yelling about? I've seen plenty of people like you. You're nothing but a discarded son of a noble family. You used to look down on us, but from now on you're not even as good as a beggar."

Standing in the sunlight, Song Wenjun looked at the vast天地 (heaven and earth) and felt her heart and mind open up.

From the moment she stepped out of the prison cell, she seemed to have been reborn.

Outside the gate, Xiao Tao was waiting anxiously.

Seeing Song Wenjun come out, he hurriedly went to greet her: "Madam, how is she?"

Song Wenjun waved the divorce papers in her hand, her face beaming with a bright smile: "I got them."

"That's wonderful, that's wonderful!" Xiao Tao cried tears of joy. She and her wife had been lying low for so long, and they were finally going to get rid of the Marquis's mansion.

Where do we go next?

A resolute look appeared in Song Wenjun's eyes: "Go to the government office and get it stamped."
