Yu Dong of course didn't want to let go of Mu Yuxi so easily but she also knew that she couldn't just kill her, so this was the best way to get rid of her. Even if she wasn't willing to let go of Mu Yuxi, she had to suppress her instincts and let the law do its work but of course, Yu Dong was all about ripping Mu Yuxi's guts and feeding it to her but she was once an honest officer, following the law was in her blood, unless the situation calls for it she wouldn't unnecessarily kill anyone. In the end, even if she was not reconciled, she still nodded to Chu Chang's suggestion then she turned around and walked away.

  Now that the matter was solved there was no point to lurk around here and watch, she needed to return to her groom and marry him!

  Once Yu Dong was gone, Mu Yuxi who was stifled to death finally blew up as she glared at Chu Chang who was standing in front of her with a disgruntled expression like he didn't want to be here. Seeing him act like this, the anger that was boiling in her veins was fuelled even more and when the yamen officers came to tie her hands, Mu Yuxi's temper flared up as she shouted at Chu Chang, " You bastard! That woman Yu Dong seduced you too right? Now that you have someone in your heart, you are actually sending me to prison? Chu Chang, I didn't know that you were this shameless—"

  While she was scolding she didn't notice that the expression on Chu Chang's face was getting worse and worse, even his sisters who were standing beside him looked like they wanted to beat Mu Yuxi up until she couldn't open her mouth but before either of them could make a sound, Chu Chang swiftly stomped towards Mu Yuxi and —


  SLAP! A loud smack echoed in the surroundings as Chu Chang slapped Mu Yuxi with a fierce expression on his face. His chest was heaving as he looked at Mu Yuxi. " I am shameless? Hah! Even if I am shameless at least I will never be as shameless as you, Mu Yuxi! I was the one who helped you out when no one wanted to, your business ideas were at best mediocre, I was the one who helped you in drawing a new outline for your shops but instead of treating me like your benefactor, you and your family has treated me as a slave, you have made me suffer so much but you are yet to give me a sincere apology! And yet you have the face to act like I am the one who wronged you? Mu Yuxi let us clear up the matter of who wronged who first!"

  " I never wanted to marry you but you pursued me and made that ridiculous promise, did I ask you to make that promise? I will tell you, I didn't! Neither did I ask you to give me anything except for your love and respect but instead you have asked so much from me, you wanted capital for a new business, you will come rushing to me, you made a mess and offended someone you will ask my sisters to clean it up for you"

  " All these years I have suffered everything but not anymore!" With a determined gaze, that was burning with tiny little flames of anger and vengeance, Chu Chang gritted out. " I don't want my kids to be called children of a criminal, Mu Yuxi, let's divorce. It doesn't matter whether or not you agree, you have no other choice, if you don't agree to my conditions not only will I make your sentence double but also I will make your life in the prison living hell, you know about the wide range of connections that my sisters have right?"

  Mu Yuxi looked at the Chu sisters who glowered at her and swallowed.

  When Yu Dong returned to the Fang family house, Fang Chi was already sitting in the courtyard while Grandma Fang fussed over him, on the other side was a frail-looking—— mer most likely Fang Nan's daddy ——who was hiding Fang Nan behind him and sobbed. " Mother in law, do you really have to be ruthless? Why are you bent on sending my son to the Yamen? I admit that Nan Nan made a mistake but he is just a boy, how can you even think about sending him to prison won't your heart hurt if you sent him to that dirty and rotten place? Just look at my son and his delicate body, he has been a sickly child ever since he was a baby, how will he go through such a suffering?"

  " You are really good Zhang Tingyi! When it is your child's turn you are worried that he will suffer, then what about my Chi'er?" shouted Grandma Fang as she rolled her sleeves and pointed at Zhang Tingyi, after handing Fang Chi a bowl of nerve-calming soup. " Your child is frail but is my Chi made up of stone? That boy wasn't frail when he schemed with that bitch named Mu Yuxi but now that he needs to step up and take responsibility for his actions, all of a sudden he is frail? Who are you trying to fool?"

  ' How can that sex slave's son even compare to my Nan Nan? That Fang Chi was an ugly bastard but my Nan Nan was the pride of the Fang family! How can the two of them be even compared?' Zhang Tingyi's expression was bad but he didn't say anything instead he tugged at his wife's sleeves, if Fang Nan was sent away to the prison then their most valuable asset would be lost, even if their Nan Nan wasn't able to get this Yu woman as long as they try their best and suppress this news from getting out of the village then they will still be able to find a decent bride for Fang Nan, albeit a bit older and ugly.

  But definitely rich!

  They couldn't let Grandma Fang send Fang Nan to the Yamen! No matter what!
