Lu Jingshen looked at everyone and said, "I married Shen Tang to repay Uncle Shen's kindness. We didn't consummate our marriage for three years, not because I disliked her, but because I was thinking of her."

Shen Tang was young when she married me, and I only got the marriage certificate myself to give her a way out. Now that she's joined the performing arts troupe and wants to leave, I'll let her go. Our Lu family has supported her for the past three years; that's our way of repaying a debt of gratitude.

Shen Tang looked at him and felt a wave of nausea.

This scumbag is twisting the truth, turning her three years of suffering and torment into "repaying a debt of gratitude."

"Lu Jingshen, can you stop being so hypocritical? Don't you know whether I've been blessed or mistreated in the three years I've been married to you?" Shen Tang looked at everyone.

"Everyone can go to Lujiaying and ask around to see how his mother, Liu Jinhua, really treated me! And how I was forced to jump into the river a month ago. Lu Jingshen, don't even think about pinning the blame on me."

Lu Jingshen gritted his teeth, took a breath, and softened his voice:

"Shen Tang, actually I wanted to have a good life with you. Now that you've been accepted into the performing arts troupe, you're looking down on me, aren't you?"

"Pah! Live a good life? You should be thinking about how to appease Yang Xinyue! Don't force me to expose your shameful deeds." Shen Tang said angrily.

Seeing that she wouldn't budge despite his persuasion, Lu Jingshen looked at Ge Aihua and said:

"Commander Ge, my matter with Shen Tang still needs to be resolved privately, so her joining the cultural troupe will have to be postponed."

"What's the point of resolving this?" Huo Xiuyuan interjected. "The facts are clear. I saw what happened that night. If you don't want things to get too ugly, then stop making a fuss."

Lu Jingshen raised his head in shock.

Did he see it too? Was he the one being watched that day?

A wave of shame and anger washed over him, but he couldn't let it out.

Ge Aihua looked at him coldly and said, "Shen Tang is already a member of our cultural troupe. If there's anything, just say it here and now. Since you're not married, you have no right to prevent her from joining the cultural troupe."

Lu Jingshen looked at Shen Tang and said, "Shen Tang, I'm giving you one last chance."

Shen Tang smiled at him, "Are you ever going to stop? Everyone's busy, so let's not waste time."

Shen Tang picked up a pen and wrote a statement on the paper.

He wrote his name at the end and then handed it to Lu Jingshen.

"Sign. From now on, there will be no more entanglements."

Lu Jingshen looked at the document in front of him, which proved that he and Shen Tang no longer had any relationship, and hesitated to write it down.

Li Xiuying looked at Lu Jingshen and said seriously, "Lu Jingshen, your problem is not that simple. Forging a marriage certificate is illegal. If Shen Tang investigates, you will go to jail."

Shen Tang sighed and said, "I can report this to the police station at any time. But I don't plan to go right now. I find it troublesome. But if you continue like this, then I can't help you."

Shen Tang planned to keep this leverage in her hands so that Lu Jingshen would have something to fear.

Lu Jingshen was making plans in his mind.

Things have come to this point, and it seems there's no way to turn things around.

If he keeps pestering him, he might lose his job.

He lost the game against Shen Tang.

And they lost completely.

"Okay, I'll sign."

Lu Jingshen picked up a pen and wrote his name.

Shen Tang put the paper away with satisfaction and said, "I'll give you half a day. Pay me back the 280 yuan you owe me by tomorrow morning."

Lu Jingshen frowned. "Didn't we agree on seven months? Why did you change your mind?"

"The past is the past, and the present is the present," Shen Tang said. "You can always ask your sweetheart for it; I'm sure she'd be happy to. That way, we can end things quickly and have nothing to do with each other anymore."

Shen Tang smiled and said, "Finally, I wish you both a long and happy marriage and many children."

Lu Jingshen gritted his teeth, flung his hand, and strode out.

Everyone discussed it and gradually dispersed.

Ge Aihua looked at Shen Tang and said, "Shen Tang, we're leaving in three days. Why don't you stay with us at the training compound for the next few days?"

"Okay," Shen Tang said with a smile.

Seeing that she wasn't too affected, Ge Aihua felt relieved and went to attend to her own business.

"Do you want to go back to the compound?" Huo Xiuyuan asked.

Shen Tang thought for a moment and said, "I want to go to the department store first."

"Let's go on the way!" Huo Xiuyuan said, striding out.

Shen Tang smiled and followed him out of the Cultural Palace.

Just as the two were about to get into the car, a black sedan slowly pulled up beside Shen Tangsheng.

Huo Xiuyuan clenched his teeth inwardly.

The ghost lingers.

The car window rolled down, revealing Qin Zheng's handsome face.

He smiled and said, "Shen Tang, I've heard about your situation. So, you're single now?"

Shen Tang smiled. "Yes, single."

"Can I pursue you?"

Qin Zheng's bluntness startled Shen Tang slightly.

Shen Tang's gaze swept over Huo Xiuyuan, who stood to the side like an iceberg, and then turned to Qin Zheng, saying:

"Of course you can, but whether you can catch her or not depends on your skills."

"It's a great honor that you've given me this opportunity," Qin Zheng said with a smile.

Qin Zheng opened the car door and got out, then turned around and took a large bouquet of red roses from the back seat, handing them to Shen Tang:

"Congratulations on joining the performing arts troupe!"

Shen Tang looked at the red roses in front of her, but before she could speak, Huo Xiuyuan snatched the flowers away.

"She doesn't like roses," Huo Xiuyuan said in a deep voice.

"Just because I didn't like it before doesn't mean I won't like it in the future." Qin Zheng smiled.

Huo Xiuyuan tossed the flowers back to Qin Zheng and said to Shen Tang, "Didn't we say we were going to the department store? Shall we go?"

"Shall we go to the department store to buy clothes?" Qin Zheng asked.

Shen Tang nodded and said, "Yes. I'm going to the cultural troupe, so of course I need to prepare a few nice outfits."

Qin Zheng smiled and said, "You actually like the clothes in the department store? The first batch of the clothes you designed has already been made. Go and take two pieces home. Consider it a gift from me."

Shen Tang thought for a moment and said, "Then I can't refuse your kind offer."

The clothes I designed for Qin Zheng will definitely make him a fortune, so it's not unreasonable for me to take a "kickback".

Huo Xiuyuan took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, opened the car door, and got in.

Seeing Huo Xiuyuan get into the car, Shen Tang didn't think much of it and turned to Qin Zheng, saying:

"Let's go."

Huo Xiuyuan watched through the car window as Shen Tang got into Qin Zheng's car.

His jawline was taut, and he deftly and ruthlessly shifted the gear lever.

The car started with a roar, the jeep brushed past Qin Zheng's car, swerved around a bend, and drove out of the Cultural Palace gate.

"He likes you." Qin Zheng stopped smiling and looked at Shen Tang seriously.

Shen Tang tilted her head and looked at him. "So?"

Qin Zheng stared at her for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed:

"interesting."

He started the car, took Shen Tang away, and drove towards Guohua Garment Factory.
