When Yun Ziang brought Xiao Jin home, he happened to run into Yun Ziqian sitting in the living room.

Yun Zi'ang was startled when he saw the figure on the sofa. "Why aren't you asleep yet?!"

Yun Ziqian, his face dark, walked over and took Xiao Jin from Yun Ziang's arms. "What are you doing running around with Xiao Jin so late at night?"

He got up in the middle of the night to get a drink of water and saw that Xiao Jin's door was not closed. He pushed the door open and found that Xiao Jin was gone.

He then went to Yun Ziang's room and found that Yun Ziang had also disappeared. He immediately guessed that Yun Ziang had taken Xiao Jin out, so he waited in the living room.

"I'm innocent!" Yun Zi'ang protested, "It was my little aunt who asked me to take her out."

Yun Ziqian gave Yun Ziang a look of utter disdain. "Go back to sleep."

As he spoke, he carried Xiao Jin upstairs.

Yun Ziang pouted in dissatisfaction and followed them upstairs to their room.

-

Xiao Jin stayed up all night and slept until nine o'clock the next morning before opening her eyes.

She got up groggily, brushed her teeth and washed her face, then grabbed her cloth tiger and headed straight for the dining table.

After walking a few steps, he bumped into Yun Mingyue, who was dressed neatly.

She wore exquisite makeup and waved naturally when she saw Xiao Jin. "Xiao Jin, you're awake?"

Xiao Jin walked over and looked Yun Mingyue up and down with curiosity. "Niece, you look so beautiful today!"

Yun Mingyue smiled and pinched Xiao Jin's cheek. "You have such a sweet tongue."

She asked the nanny next to her to get a comb and first braided Xiao Jin's hair.

Yun Mingyue had never raised a girl before, and only knew a few ways to braid hair, but Xiao Jin still liked it very much.

Xiao Jin touched the two little buns Yun Mingyue had styled for her and smiled, "They look so pretty!"

"Thanks!"

Yun Mingyue put down the comb and said softly, "Xiao Jin, I have to go out in a little while. You and Tianlin can play for a while, okay?"

"Okay!" Xiao Jin readily agreed, saying with a precocious air, "I'll take good care of my grand-nephew."

Yun Mingyue smiled, glanced at the time, then gave Chen Bo some instructions and left.

Half an hour later, in the detention center's visiting room, separated by a thick layer of glass, cold white light shone down, making the tabletop gleam with a chilly light.

Yun Mingyue sat in the chair, her fingertips lightly resting on the edge of the table. She wore a well-tailored beige suit, her hair was neatly styled, and her makeup was so exquisite that there was not a single flaw. She was completely out of place in this oppressive and dull environment.

Not long after, the door opposite was pushed open.

Lu Peng, dressed in prison clothes, was brought in by the guards.

His face was covered in bruises, his eyes were swollen, and his lips were cut. His usual refined and dignified demeanor was completely gone. His hair was messy, and he looked haggard and disheveled.

He saw Yun Mingyue across the glass, his steps suddenly halted, and then a deep hatred welled up in his eyes. He gritted his teeth and walked over.

The two picked up the receiver.

Lu Peng's voice was hoarse and harsh, with a hint of gritted teeth: "Yun Mingyue, are you satisfied? You're happy to see me like this, aren't you?"

Looking at his bruised and swollen face, Yun Mingyue felt nothing, and even felt that getting angry was unnecessary.

She spoke in a flat tone, as if she were talking about something insignificant: "I've come today to tell you two things."

"First, Chen Manman ran away with Lu Zixuan and took the money you secretly transferred. Now no one can find her."

Lu Peng's expression changed instantly: "What did you say?!"

"Secondly," Yun Mingyue continued, ignoring his lapse in composure, her voice soft yet each word clear, "I've found my child. His name is Tianlin, he's five years old, very well-behaved and sensible."

"Yun Mingyue!" Lu Peng slammed his fist on the glass, veins bulging on his forehead, his eyes bloodshot. "You vicious woman! You knew all along, didn't you? When did you find out? Were you just watching me make a fool of myself?!"

He stared intently at her, demanding, "When did you find out about me and Manman? When did you find out Lu Zixuan wasn't your son? Were you plotting against me from the very beginning?!"

Looking at his furious state, Yun Mingyue suddenly found it ridiculous.

Looking back on the ten years she had known Lu Peng, she once thought that he was her lifelong support, someone she could entrust her life to.

Despite her family's hesitation, she insisted on marrying him, believing she had married for love, only to find it was a complete deception.

"Scheming?" Yun Mingyue's lips twitched, a cold glint finally appearing in her eyes. "Lu Peng, I'd like to ask you, what have I done to wrong you that you treat me like this?"

Her voice trembled slightly, suppressing years of pent-up grievances and resentment: "Ten years...you were the one who pursued me first!"

"I thought you were genuinely good to me, and even though my parents disagreed, I was determined to marry you."

"And what was the result?" She looked at him, her eyes reddening, but she didn't shed a tear. "You spent the Yun family's money and climbed the social ladder using their resources, while keeping women on the side and even switching my child and throwing him into the mountains."

"Lu Peng, is your heart black?"

Lu Peng suddenly sneered, his smile full of twisted malice and resentment.

"I'm heartless?" He stared at Yun Mingyue, his eyes venomous. "Blame your Yun family! Blame you! You all look down on me, you all think I'm a gold digger! Your parents look down on me, your brother and your younger brother look down on me, even you, Yun Mingyue, deep down you think I'm not good enough for you, don't you?!"

"You're naive, stupid, and have a terrible temper. You always act like a high and mighty princess! Why are you born with everything?"

"Why should I have to live at the mercy of others my whole life? I'm going to take the Yun family's money, I'm going to let your son wander the streets, I'm going to make the Yun family taste what it's like!"

He poured out all his resentment, blaming the Yun family and Yun Mingyue for all the misfortunes, inferiority, and jealousy he had experienced over the years.

It's as if he got to where he is today entirely because others forced him, and it's all someone else's fault.

Yun Mingyue listened quietly, and the last remaining thoughts of her youthful love shattered and dissipated, leaving only a bone-chilling coldness.

For the first time, she realized that she had never truly known the man in front of her.

The gentle, considerate, and meticulous Lu Peng she once loved was always a lie.

The real him was insecure, vicious, and resentful to the core.

"Are you done talking?" Yun Mingyue said coldly after he finished venting, her tone devoid of any emotion. "Lu Peng, your narrow-mindedness and inferiority complex have never been a reason for you to harm others."

"After all these years of scheming, what have you gotten in the end?" She looked at him, her eyes calm but sharp as knives. "Chen Manman ran off with your money, and all the assets you painstakingly transferred will eventually be recovered."

"You went to jail, your reputation was ruined, and everyone turned against you. In the end, you gained nothing."

"You hate the Yun family, you hate me, but you've only ever destroyed yourself."

Every word he uttered struck Lu Peng's sore spot precisely.

Lu Peng was so angry that he trembled all over. He suddenly stood up and slammed his fist hard against the glass, making a dull thud.

He roared, hurling vile insults, his face contorted like a madman.

The guards immediately stepped forward, pinned him down, and issued a stern warning.

Yun Mingyue had already put down the receiver.

She looked at the hysterical man across the glass, feeling no hatred, no resentment, only an empty calm.

All her sadness, anger, and shock were released the moment she found out that Lu Zixuan was not her biological child.

At this moment, looking at Lu Peng, whose face was completely unrecognizable, she felt as if the stone that had been weighing on her heart for so long had suddenly been lifted off her feet.

It's not worth wasting ten years of your youth on someone like that.

Fortunately, it's not too late.

She stood up, gave Lu Peng one last look, and left only one clear sentence that drifted into Lu Peng's ears through the glass:

"I will have my lawyer deliver the divorce papers to you. Lu Peng, this is the end for us."

After saying that, she turned and walked away without looking back or hesitating.

The sun outside was shining brightly, its golden rays warming my skin.

Yun Mingyue raised her hand to shield her eyes from the sunlight, took a deep breath, and felt her chest fill with fresh air.

past.

Those rotten people and rotten things, those deceptions and betrayals, are all in the past.

There couldn't be a more fortunate ending.

Yun Mingyue took a step forward, her back straight, each step more steady and lighter than the last.
