Ye Xunhuan gazed blankly at Su Guyan.

If at that time, Qiu Ruoxi had told Ye Xunhuan that she had someone bring the old dean over to accompany Mei Hanqing, then Ye Xunhuan would definitely have gone with Qiu Ruoxi.

Mei Hanqing was brought up single-handedly by the old dean, and although they weren’t father and daughter, their relationship was just as close!

Even though Ye Xunhuan and Mei Hanqing had a great relationship now, it still couldn’t compare to the bond between the old dean and Mei Hanqing.

After all, Mei Hanqing was raised by the old dean for over twenty years, and such a long-standing bond couldn’t be matched by the newly formed relationship between Ye Xunhuan and Mei Hanqing.

Besides, describing the relationship between the old dean and Mei Hanqing as relying on each other was not an exaggeration at all.

In such a scenario, even the powerful energy of love wouldn’t be strong enough to trump over twenty years of mutual reliance.

So, having the old dean accompany Mei Hanqing was definitely more effective than Ye Xunhuan being there.

Qiu Ruoxi did call the old dean over, but Ye Xunhuan was completely unaware of this, which is why they ended up in this situation.

Otherwise, if Ye Xunhuan had known, he would never have let Qiu Ruoxi go alone.

Su Guyan, somewhat exasperated, extended her slender hand and gently poked Ye Xunhuan’s forehead, "You, do you not know what kind of person Qiu Ruoxi is?"

"Do you think she would explain things to others when doing something?"

Upon reflection, Ye Xunhuan realized that to be quite true; regardless of what Qiu Ruoxi did, she rarely bothered to explain anything.

Once something was done, it was done. There was nothing to explain.

"Besides, you two are married, why couldn’t you trust that she would think of all possibilities and arrange everything?"

Yes, why couldn’t I trust Qiu Ruoxi?

We are a married couple after all!

After a moment of silence, Ye Xunhuan slowly said, "But this is just your guess after all..."

"If you don’t believe it, you can call the old dean to ask," Su Guyan said casually.

Hearing Su Guyan’s words, Ye Xunhuan didn’t hesitate; he immediately pulled out his phone and dialed the old dean’s number.

The call was quickly connected.

Once connected, Ye Xunhuan didn’t immediately ask if it was Qiu Ruoxi who had invited the old dean over, but instead inquired about Mei Hanqing’s condition.

"Old dean, is Han Qing alright?"

"Getting much better!"

The voice of the old dean, filled with both age and helplessness, slowly reached Ye Xunhuan’s ears.

"That’s good, that’s good!" Ye Xunhuan breathed a sigh of relief, "Old dean, should you stay with Han Qing, what about the children at the welfare institute..."

Ye Xunhuan didn’t ask directly and instead approached in a very roundabout way.

"There are people in the welfare institute, and Miss Qiu also found people to take care of the kids; otherwise, I wouldn’t have come here at ease!" the old dean answered directly without thinking much of it.

Hearing the old dean’s words, Ye Xunhuan’s face was immediately filled with bitterness.

Everything Su Guyan said turned out to be true: the old dean was indeed invited by Qiu Ruoxi, who even arranged for people to take care of the children at the welfare institute.

After chatting with the old dean for a couple more sentences, Ye Xunhuan ended the call.

Once the call was off, Su Guyan immediately said to Ye Xunhuan, "So, did I nail everything or not?"

Ye Xunhuan gave a bitter smile and nodded, "Not a single mistake."

"See, I told you, this time it’s your fault," Su Guyan said softly, "Yet you even wanted to divorce her. Tsk tsk, I wonder how you’ll clean up the mess tomorrow!"

Upon hearing Su Guyan’s words, Ye Xunhuan’s face instantly turned into a bitter gourd face.

"Guyan, if I go back to coax her now, would it work?"

At this moment, Ye Xunhuan contemplated surrendering to Qiu Ruoxi.

No choice, this time it was my mistake; what Qiu Ruoxi did was right, but I...

"Qiu Ruoxi isn’t stupid; she can more or less guess your motive for returning."

"So what should I do then?"

"How would I know!" Su Guyan laughed, "You figure it out yourself!"

With that, Su Guyan paid no more attention to Ye Xunhuan, adopting a "none of my business" attitude.

Seeing Su Guyan like this, Ye Xunhuan felt a wave of helplessness inside.

Immediately, Ye Xunhuan took a deep breath, "Damn it, since there’s already a misunderstanding, let it be! Besides, she’s been exploiting me for so long, it’s time for me to turn the tables and show her I’m not so easily bullied!"

Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s bravado, Su Guyan nodded, "Makes sense, go ahead and stand tall in front of your wife for once then!"

"I’m a bit tired, so I’ll sleep first!"

Seeing Su Guyan lie down, Ye Xunhuan opened his mouth, but in the end, said nothing.

And so, Ye Xunhuan spent the night at Su Guyan’s place.

It was a very peaceful night; the two of them did nothing.

Or rather, Ye Xunhuan didn’t have the mood to do anything in the first place.

By the next morning, after waking up, Su Guyan made some breakfast for Ye Xunhuan and Ali, and after they ate, Su Guyan asked Ye Xunhuan, "Shall I take you to the civil affairs bureau?"

Upon hearing Su Guyan’s words, Ali’s expressionless face immediately showed a hint of curiosity, and her gaze shifted to Ye Xunhuan.

Ever since waking up in the morning, Ye Xunhuan had been sullen, like a crab being boiled in a pot.

Now that Su Guyan mentioned it, Ye Xunhuan’s face was even more filled with melancholy.

"Alright then, come with me!"

At this moment, Ye Xunhuan felt like he had no retreat left; otherwise, he’d be trampled over by Qiu Ruoxi again, and she would continue to give him cold looks!

So Ye Xunhuan decided he should go to the civil affairs bureau after all.

Seeing Ye Xunhuan’s show of bravery, Su Guyan chuckled and said nothing.

Meanwhile, at the villa in Xiang Shui Xie, Qiu Ruoxi had been listless since getting up in the morning, emanating an aura of cool indifference that kept others at bay.

This made Wang Ma and Wang Zilin feel very uneasy.

Qiu Ruoxi hadn’t been like this for a long time, so what on earth happened this time?

Didn’t Ye Xunhuan say everything was fine now?

Or is it that Qiu Ruoxi hasn’t forgiven Ye Xunhuan yet?

"Miss, are you still mad at the Master?" Wang Ma couldn’t help but ask.

Qiu Ruoxi looked at Wang Ma, "No, I won’t be mad at him ever again from now on!"

Hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s words, Wang Ma was initially delighted, but then her heart was filled with worry again.

Qiu Ruoxi’s words were filled with a chilling undertone that penetrated deeply.

"Miss..."

"Alright, Wang Ma, I’m going to work!"

With that, Qiu Ruoxi didn’t give Wang Ma another chance to speak and got up to leave the villa.

After entering the car in the garage, Qiu Ruoxi exhaled a heavy sigh, then took out the marriage certificate from her bag and looked at it dazedly for a couple of seconds!

Will he go to the civil affairs bureau?

He probably will, right?

After all, he said those things to me yesterday; if he wasn’t serious about wanting a divorce, how could he have said such things?

Fine, let’s just divorce. After all, we’re not from the same world anyway!
