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

Snapped!

Mingyun stopped his sudden offensive act with a loud slap.

Qin Pinsen's face was turned to one side from the slap.

Mingyun pushed his arm away as well, angrily saying, "What do you take me for!"

The burning pain on Qin Pinsen's cheeks seemed to have sobered him up considerably.

He didn't even understand himself why he suddenly acted impulsively.

"Get out of the way!" Mingyun's eyes were sharp and piercing.

Qin Pinsen was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed. "I just wanted to test whether you really wanted a divorce. Don't take yourself too seriously."

He released his hand from the doorknob.

Mingyun opened the door and left.

Qin Pinsen pressed his tongue against the inside of his slapped cheek, staring at Mingyun's retreating figure. An inexplicable anger surged within him, making him inexplicably irritable.

At that moment, the door to the compartment diagonally opposite opened.

A tipsy Mingxuan stumbled out, leaning against the wall.

Qin Pinsen withdrew his gaze, turned around, and closed the door.

Mingxuan caught a glimpse of him.

"Hmm? That looks like... my brother-in-law?" Mingxuan rubbed his eyes, and when he looked again, the door to the private room was already closed.

He walked over, supporting himself against the wall, intending to knock on the door to confirm.

However, she immediately remembered that she, her father, and her sister had made an agreement before that her sister would cover all the household expenses and they would not have any contact with the Qin family.

They are also not allowed to publicly announce that the Ming family and the Qin family are in-laws.

Considering that my sister has indeed given me money on time over the years, and quite a lot at that, I'm grateful.

Let's just leave it at that this time and not break the agreement.

Mingxuan continued to walk to the bathroom, leaning against the wall.

Just as I got near the restroom, I saw my older sister, Mingyun, come out of it.

"Ugh... Sister... Hiccup..." Mingxuan almost vomited in the corridor as soon as she opened her mouth, and quickly covered her mouth.

I drank way too much; my stomach is churning.

Just then, Mingyun entered the elevator.

Mingxuan steeled her heart, swallowed the vomit that had risen to her throat, and staggered toward the elevator.

do not care!

I'm determined to get to the bottom of this today by asking her in person about the work arrangements I've been given.

Mingyun left the restaurant and hailed a taxi.

Mingxuan was still dazed and couldn't catch up with her before she got into the car, so he hailed a taxi.

"Follow that car in front!"

He yelled at the driver, reeking of alcohol.

The driver's face darkened. "I don't take people who've had too much to drink."

"Drunk with drink?" Mingxuan pulled out his wallet and tossed hundred-yuan bills at the driver one by one. "Drunk? I'm not drunk!"

"I'm not drunk, I'm not drunk, you'd better sit tight!"

The driver grinned from ear to ear, quickly pocketed the few hundred-yuan bills, and followed the car Mingxuan had mentioned.

About half an hour.

When Mingyun arrived at her destination, she got off the bus and went straight to the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Mingxuan, who followed closely behind, widened her eyes. "Huh? What's my sister doing at the Civil Affairs Bureau?"

The taxi driver casually remarked, "I'm either at work or running errands!"

"She doesn't work here!"

"Oh, so that's for handling business, like social security assistance, child adoption, pension applications, funeral-related matters..."

The taxi driver talked on and on.

Mingxuan pondered, "That shouldn't be the case. Our family doesn't do these things, and we wouldn't need to do them..."

The driver continued, "That's about marriage or divorce. What's wrong? Isn't she your sister? You don't even know why she's here? Are you two sure you're siblings?"

Not wanting to waste time arguing with the driver, Mingxuan quickly got out of the car.

The person I saw at the restaurant back then was probably my brother-in-law, Qin Pinsen.

My sister also left from that restaurant and then went to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

This is so strange!

Could it be... that my sister and brother-in-law... are getting a divorce?!

Upon realizing this possibility, Mingxuan sobered up considerably.

My first instinct was to rush into the Civil Affairs Bureau and find Mingyun to get to the bottom of things, but then I thought that if that were the case, I should tell my dad first!

He strolled to the side of the Civil Affairs Bureau and called Ming Changfu.

As soon as the call connected, Ming Changfu shouted, "Eighty thousand!"

"Dad! Something bad might be happening!" Mingxuan said. "I just saw..."

"Nine of Bamboo!" Ming Changfu yelled, "What's going on? Spit it out!"

Mingxuan then recounted how she had accidentally stumbled upon her sister at the Civil Affairs Bureau.

"What?! You stay there and keep watch, I'm on my way!"

After Ming Changfu finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

He drove over here very quickly.

"Did Mingyun come with Qin Pinsen?" Ming Changfu asked. "Where is she now?"

Mingxuan said, "I only saw her come by herself, but she just went towards the marriage registration office."

Ming Changfu looked suspicious.

A person?

But we went to the marriage registration office again.

What are they trying to do?

If it's a divorce registration, both spouses need to be present.

"Dad, could it be... that my sister is just here to get some certificates or reissue her marriage certificate?" Mingxuan asked.

Ming Changfu thought for a moment and said, "That's possible, but just in case, we still need to keep an eye on things."

The Qin family is a powerful family that you can't find another like them in the entire Binhan City.

If it weren't for some incredible stroke of luck that Mingyun became the young mistress of the Qin family, the Ming family would never have had the chance to be related to such a powerful in-law.

Although the Ming family has never had any contact with anyone from the Qin family, and at Mingyun's strong request, they have never publicly claimed to have any connection with the Qin family.

However, Ming Changfu made a lot of money off Ming Yun.

The dowry given by the Qin family alone propelled the Ming family into a higher social class.

Otherwise, even if Ming Tianfu worked himself to death, he still wouldn't be able to buy a decent house in Binhan city.

Even a tiny grain of rice that spills from between the Qin family's fingers would be enough to feed an ordinary person for a lifetime.

Later on, Mingyun sent money home every month.

Ming Tianfu felt that if it weren't for the Qin family, she would never have been able to give her family so much money.

Therefore, no matter what, Mingyun and Qin Pinsen should not be allowed to divorce.

"Come on, let's go in and see what she's up to." Ming Changfu pulled his son toward the marriage registration office.

The hall was now packed with people.

However, the vast majority of people were queuing at the divorce registration window, while the marriage registration office was deserted.

Seeing this situation, Ming Changfu told his son, "You need to find someone to marry quickly. Nowadays, women are becoming more and more shrewd, and honest and virtuous women are becoming increasingly rare. If you don't hurry, you won't be able to find a good one."

"I'm still so young, I haven't had enough fun yet..." Mingxuan muttered.

Just as Ming Changfu was about to scold his son, Mingxuan suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Dad, I think I saw Qin Pinsen."

"Where?" Ming Changfu craned his neck to look around.

Mingxuan quickly pulled him to a corner and secretly pointed in a direction.

In the crowd, a man wearing a baseball cap, large sunglasses, and a mask was walking towards Mingyun.

At 1.85 meters tall, he's not hard to spot in a crowd.

They were dressed very casually, and their faces were not visible.

Mingxuan said, "It feels somewhat similar, but... I'm not sure."

"It's him!" Ming Tianfu said. "The more he's dressed like that, the more it proves it's him. Otherwise, how could a young master of the Qin family show his face so openly at the marriage registration office?"

Soon, the speculation was confirmed.

Because that figure walked up to Mingyun, exchanged a few words, and then went to the divorce registration area to queue up together.

"My sister and brother-in-law are really getting a divorce?!" Mingxuan's expression changed drastically.

"Damn it! I've raised her for nothing! You heartless bastard! She actually went to divorce us behind our backs!" Ming Changfu gritted his teeth and cursed Ming Yun with extreme malice.

It was as if she wasn't his daughter.

It was his dog.

Mingxuan was sweating profusely with anxiety. "If she divorces us, where will we get the money? Dad, what are we going to do?!"
