Eight years have passed, he's still going strong, but his girlfriend is having a mental breakdo

[Detected that the host has divorced again, resulting in a change in mindset. The host has decided to dedicate the rest of their life to themselves and has activated all system functions.]

[As long as the host forms a quantum entanglement with the target goddess, binding themselves to the target of the counterattack, and appropriately gifts money and goods, they can receive a tenfold return. If the bound target's favorability towards the protagonist reaches 90%, it is considered a successful counterattack, and a special reward will be given.]

[System loading complete]

The system is activated?

Zhao Hongan almost burst into tears.

Your system was activated way too late.

However, this is for the best.

Having just finalized their divorce, Hu Guoqin and her son won't get a single penny of benefit.

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully gifted Hu Guoqin a BMW Z4 replica (with music) children's electric car worth 980 yuan. This is your first gift, triggering a massive bonus of 980 million yuan. Would you like to claim it?]

【Yes】

【no】

BMW Z4 replica children's electric car...

This was the first gift Zhao Hongan gave to Hu Guoqin twenty years ago. He bought her son a children's electric car that could be driven by a person, catering to her preferences.

The gift, which was worth 980 at the time, was equivalent to two months' salary for an average worker.

Hu Rui, driving this electric scooter, became the coolest kid on the street, attracting envious glances from many children.

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully gifted Hu Guoqin a lunch, costing 36.7 yuan. You will receive a refund of 367 yuan. Would you like to claim it?]

【Yes】

【no】

[Congratulations, host, on successfully gifting Hu Guoqin...]

Lines of white text flashed rapidly across the panel in front of me, faster and faster, as if the panel were constantly flashing.

This is all the money Zhao Hong'an has spent on this mother and son over the past twenty years. The system has recorded every single expense, and now it's all being returned tenfold, with the first gift triggering a ten-thousand-fold bonus.

[Congratulations, host, for successfully gifting Hu Guoqin a house in the Martial Arts Center. The cost was 1.03 million, and 10.3 million has been returned. Would you like to withdraw?]

【Yes】

【no】

【…】

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully gifted Hu Guoqin a box of safety umbrellas. The cost was 19 yuan, and you will receive a refund of 190 yuan. Would you like to claim it?]

【Yes】

【no】

[Congratulations, host, you have successfully gifted Hu Guoqin Restaurant branch, costing 160 million, now returning 1600 million. Would you like to claim it?]

【…】

Haha.

In the past few years, when we opened a branch store, all the investment money was attributed to Hu Guoqin.

Brother Tongzi... what a good person.

What else can be said?

There are tens of thousands of notifications for pending refunds.

Over the past twenty years, not a single penny of Zhao Hong'an's money spent on Hu Guoqin and her son has been wasted.

[Host, over the past twenty years you have successfully made 16168 donations, totaling 10,580,219.69 yuan in cash. 16168 donations, totaling 115,601,216.9 yuan, are yet to be withdrawn and returned. Withdraw now?]

【Yes】

【no】

Zhao Hongan looked at the string of numbers and couldn't help but sigh.

Over the course of twenty years, he had spent a total of over ten million on this mother and son... Of course, this was also because his brother Tongzi was very helpful, taking into account the household expenses and investments after their marriage.

Even so, his contributions were considerable.

What did we get in return?

The system has so far failed to determine whether he successfully turned the tables on Hu Guoqin.

In other words, Hu Guoqin's level of affection for him never reached 90%.

The heart of a divorced woman with children is truly impossible to warm up.

It's chilling.

"Yes."

Zhao Hongan made his choice without hesitation. The thought had barely crossed his mind when he heard a "ding" sound, and his phone received a text message.

Has the money arrived yet?

Zhao Hongan eagerly took out his phone, glanced at a new text message, and then froze.

[Transaction details for amounts exceeding the equivalent of CHF 50 have been hidden via SMS. Please use a secure email address or contact your account manager.]

At the same time, Zhao Hongan had an extra black bank card in his hand.

As if suddenly enlightened, a series of new information appeared in his mind.

Zhao Hongan logged into his email account on his mobile phone, sent a verification message, and immediately received a transaction message from Baida Bank.

[Transaction Notification]

Income: CNY 115,601,216.90

Payer: KKR ASIA FUND IV, SINGAPORE

Note: PORTFOLIO EXIT DISTRIBUTION

Available balance: CNY 115,601,216.90

2025-10-26 11:20:33（北城时间）

Zhao Hongan used software to translate it: KKR is a publicly listed financial investment company located in New York, the payer is their Asia IV Fund located in Singapore, and the note is that it is a private equity exit payment.

Zhao Hongan's receiving account was Pictet Bank in Switzerland.

"It's true!"

Zhao Hong'an was overjoyed.

With such a large sum of money coming in, if it gets monitored by the relevant authorities and the funds are deemed to have come from an unknown source, or even be considered a case of telecommunications fraud, that would be unbearable.

One hundred million.

"Patek Group of Switzerland..."

Moreover, Brother Tongzi even considered the safety of the funds, directly giving Zhao Hongan a black card from Patek Philippe Bank in Switzerland.

Pictet Bank is a top international private bank with a 210-year history. It focuses on wealth management and is known for its strict confidentiality policies and high asset thresholds for clients.

The money Zhao Hongan received involved a New York-listed financial company, a Singapore-based fund, and ultimately ended up in Pictet Bank's Swiss account...

Anyone trying to investigate the source of Zhao Hong'an's funds would be stumped by these various paths.

Moreover, Zhao Hong'an believed that Brother Tongzi must have made other arrangements, so he could spend the money with peace of mind.

"Brother Tongzi is awesome!"

Zhao Hongan breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, there's no more worry about the future.

With a cold 100 million yuan lying in his bank account, Zhao Hongan's sense of bewilderment and loneliness after being kicked out of the house with nothing vanished instantly.

"Uncle Zhao, it's so late, why are you dragging a suitcase?"

Just then, a voice called out from behind.

"When I was little."

Zhao Hongan turned around.

The person who came was named Cheng Xiaoshi. He lived in the same neighborhood as Zhao Hong'an and was someone Zhao Hong'an watched grow up.

Cheng Xiaoshi is a very nice young man, but he doesn't like to study. He graduated from high school a few years ago but failed to get into university. With nothing to do, he helped out at Zhao Hongan's shop for a while, and Zhao Hongan took good care of him.

"Nothing. I just got divorced and left home."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiaoshi's eyes instantly reddened.

"How could Hu Rui do this! He's such a scoundrel!"

The neighbors all knew about Grandpa Zhao's situation and felt great sympathy for him.

"It's alright, I've long since come to terms with it. At this age, I don't have many years left to live, so what's the point of arguing? I just want to live a peaceful and uneventful life."

"Little boy, are you free now? I've already talked to your sister Yang, and I'll be staying at her place for a few days. As people get older, they really become useless. My legs aren't working well, and I can't walk very far. Could you help Grandpa walk home?"

Zhao Hong'an wasn't faking it.

He was getting his divorce certificate today, and he argued with Hu Guoqin and her son all day. He didn't even eat properly, and his mood fluctuated wildly.

As people get older, they can't withstand this kind of torment.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiaoshi could no longer hold back her tears, which burst forth in a single spurt.

"Sir! Don't worry, I'll take you there right away. If you need anything in the future, just let me know."

Cheng Xiaoshi stepped forward to help Zhao Hongan.

It's hard to believe that Zhao Hong'an, who was so capable just a few years ago, is now so thin and frail, with a hunched back. He's even been kicked out of his home by his second wife and adopted son. It's truly a tragic situation.

Thinking of how good Zhao Hongan had always been to him, Cheng Xiaoshi burst into tears.

Zhao Hongan looked annoyed: "You child! I'm not dead yet, why are you crying so loudly?"
