After leaving my father and keeping my son, I built my own wealthy family, and my ex-husband's

Da-da-da-da

Under the silent night sky, the sound of high heels echoing on the street seemed to pound on Yu Ye's heart with every step.

He flew back to Binhan City in China from the war-torn region where Asia and Africa meet. After discovering that Mingyun had gone to the Qin residence, he drove an ordinary car there himself.

He didn't know why he was doing this.

Did you want to see that woman make a fool of herself?

Or perhaps you want to see how she will deal with Qin Pinsen's infidelity?

Or... perhaps there are other ideas...

Given his status, he could have directly entered the Qin residence.

But he just sat quietly in the car.

From sunset to the moonlit night.

Time passed second by second, and until the second before Mingyun's figure appeared, he was still thinking, "Sure enough, even if that woman found out that Qin Pinsen was cheating, so what?"

She would endure it; she would still cling to the Qin family, belittling herself.

How could she bear to give up her beloved, how could she bear to give up the Qin family's immense wealth?

But when Yu Ye saw her actually walking out of the Qin residence's gate, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

There were also some... indescribable emotions that silently stirred his heart, which had been cold for too many years.

"Hello, is this a ride-hailing service?"

Mingyun opened the back door and asked.

The car lights were off, and she didn't pay attention to what the driver looked like.

Yu Ye's thin lips moved slightly, his voice deliberately changing its tone, "Your phone number ends in 1314, right?"

He recited several numbers fluently.

"That's right." Seeing that the last digit of the license plate matched, Mingyun got into the car without hesitation.

Mino started the car and drove towards the city center.

The dappled light flickered across the car, dancing on the faces of the two people.

Yu Ye glanced at Ming Yun's profile as she gazed out the car window through the rearview mirror. "I see you came from the Binwan Qin Mansion. It's so late, didn't the Qin family send a driver to take you?"

Mingyun lowered her eyes and simply hummed in agreement.

She didn't want to chat; she just wanted to go home quickly and get a good night's sleep.

Yu Ye's expression remained unchanged, but his large hands gripping the steering wheel unconsciously tightened.

The knuckles are more angular and sharper.

More than half an hour later, the car entered the bustling downtown business district.

Mingyun looked out the car window, the brightly lit signs of various bars making her feel dizzy. She suddenly spoke up, "Driver, could you please pull over when you see the convenience store?"

Mino found a spot to park.

Mingyun got out of the car and went into the convenience store. A little while later, she came back carrying a large bag.

The bag was full of all kinds of alcohol, beer, red wine, and white wine.

Yu Ye's gaze darkened further.

The car continued driving, and Mingyun opened a can of beer and downed it in one gulp.

"Sizzle—"

Tears almost welled up and spilled from her throat along with the wine, but she covered her mouth tightly and forced them back down.

This was the first time in her life that she had ever drunk alcohol.

She never understood why anyone would like to drink something so awful, but this time, she suddenly wanted to try it.

As a result, it was both bitter and astringent.

But it seems that it's nothing compared to the overwhelming bitterness surging in my heart.

Even after holding back from vomiting, a dizzy feeling rushed into my brain, which seemed to numb my chaotic emotions for a while.

Then... let's keep drinking.

One bottle, two bottles.

Three bottles.

Ono's face turned pale, and he almost stepped into the gas tank.

If we don't get Mingyun home soon, she might pass out drunk in the car.

Finally, just before Mingyun finished four cans of beer and was about to tackle a bottle of liquor, the car arrived at her upscale residential area.

"Thank you... Master..."

Mingyun pushed open the car door and got out, her figure swaying slightly, the large bag of wine she was carrying jingling.

As it stands, at least it can still travel in a straight line.

Yu Ye's face was as cold as ice. Looking at Ming Yun's receding figure in the rearview mirror, he squeezed out a few cold syllables through his teeth, "Heh, you brought it on yourself."

Just as he decided to ignore everything and drive away.

He glanced in the rearview mirror and saw a man approach Mingyun and put his hand on her waist, his hand intentionally or unintentionally probing her lower back.

"Don't worry about it, she deserves it no matter what."

Miyu muttered to herself and looked away.

But a cold glint flashed in his dark eyes.

"Miss Ming, slow down," the middle-aged man supporting Mingyun said in a low voice while looking around. "How did you get so drunk? It's a good thing I found you, otherwise how would you get home?"

Mingyun was getting more and more dizzy. Although she tried her best to walk, her legs wouldn't obey her.

Seeing that the middle-aged man was a resident of the same building but on a different floor, someone I often encountered before, and that he was polite and kind-hearted, I didn't think much of it and said to him, "Excuse me, thank you for your help..."

"It's alright, it's alright, we're all neighbors."

The male neighbor smiled and led her into the elevator.

When they reached the floor, Mingyun couldn't enter the password. Fortunately, she had a fingerprint unlock, and after a few tries, she opened the door successfully.

"I'm home," Mingyun said, her cheeks flushed. She didn't forget to thank the man, "Uncle, thank you so much. You should go home now too."

The male neighbor glanced into the living room without making a sound.

The lights were off inside.

He suddenly remembered that every time he ran into Mingyun in the neighborhood, she was always alone.

I seem to have heard other homeowners say that Mingyun is probably single and lives alone.

Evil thoughts quietly began to grow.

As Mingyun turned to go inside, the male neighbor quietly tapped the doorframe with his fingertips.

The living room door appeared to be closed, but because he had left a small gap, it wasn't completely shut.

Mingyun was dizzy and didn't notice anything unusual.

Clothes soaked with sweat stick to the skin and feel very uncomfortable.

All she wanted was to take a quick shower and get a good night's sleep so this frustrating day could end quickly.

So, he casually took off his shoes and coat and went into the bathroom.

The male neighbor slowly opened the door and stared intently at the light coming on from the bathroom at the other end of the living room.

He swallowed hard, hesitated for a moment, and then gritted his teeth and looked away from the situation.

However, the clothes Mingyun had just taken off were scattered on the sofa, and the air was filled with her unique fragrance, along with a faint smell of alcohol...

As if possessed, he stepped through the door, grabbed Mingyun's clothes and sniffed them hard, then could no longer resist and headed towards the bathroom.

The living room door behind him was about to close completely as he released his grip.

Snapped--

A soft sound.

A strong, well-defined hand reached out from outside the door and, at the last moment, managed to grab the door frame.

On the back of his hand, the veins slowly bulged...

……

The bathroom was filled with the sound of rushing water.

The male neighbor approached slowly, step by step.

Just as his hand was about to reach the bathroom door, he suddenly felt a tightness around his neck.

Before I could react, I was grabbed by the collar by a tremendous force and dragged back to the living room.

Then, a muffled thud.

He fell heavily to the ground.

Everything happened too fast, too suddenly.

When he finally saw the situation clearly, he realized that there was a man standing next to him.

He winced in pain, both shocked and furious. "What the hell? Who the hell are you?!"
