Wu Haoqi knew that the maid's room on the first floor was not soundproof, but he did not know that the sound was so loud.

How does she usually fall asleep?

For some reason, he always felt that before the Song family went bankrupt, Song Qintang was a pampered young lady. After the bankruptcy, her personality changed, and he subconsciously felt that letting her suffer a little was the most important thing she should learn in marriage.

They even thought it was to help her get rid of her spoiled princess habits.

Looking back now, she was the only daughter of Song's Technology. Her father committed suicide, and her mother was seriously ill. She was able to climb out of the thicket of thorns all by herself. How could she be a delicate young lady?

Thinking about this, Wu Haoqi suddenly realized that he had never actually tried to understand her, but had only formed a preconceived notion because of her good temper.

Because she had been making things difficult for Long Jianjia for the past few years, she felt that Long Jianjia was narrow-minded.

He now wonders if his perception of Song Qintang was actually an unfair one.

Wu Haoqi paused for a moment, then walked back to his desk.

But when he stood at his desk, the striking divorce agreement lay there quietly, yet he never had the courage to open it again.

He is trying to avoid divorce.

Wu Haoqi knew in his heart that he actually did not want a divorce.

The reason I gave her the divorce papers before was because I knew she wouldn't leave me, but more so to give her a warning and let her develop in the direction she wanted.

If Song Qintang really divorces him, what will Haoqi Auto Repair do? What will outsiders think of him?

Wu Haoqi had already found an excuse for this relationship in his mind; it wasn't just about his future and his pride.

After all, they had been married for three years, and she was his wife. He couldn't let her suffer alone outside.

Perhaps in a few days, she'll calm down and stop mentioning divorce.

Having convinced himself, Wu Haoqi turned around, his steps slightly unsteady.

But Song Qintang didn't come back for the next few days. Whenever asked, she said she was busy at the hospital and on night shifts.

Sometimes she would make five or six calls before she would answer just one.

He stared at the unanswered calls on his phone, lost in thought.

So this is what it feels like to not answer the phone.

After her public holiday ended, Song Qintang returned to work, intending to finalize the divorce as soon as possible since she had made up her mind.

Unexpectedly, Wu Haoqi didn't mention divorce at all.

He just kept calling her to come home.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Song Qintang had just come out of the laboratory when Director Yang called her back.

Director Yang is a ray of light in her darkness. Over the past few years, whether it's work scheduling or business trips, she has always given priority to her.

Director Yang was a gentle person, and when he looked at Song Qintang, there was always a sense of pity for the younger generation in his eyes. He always sighed that her daughter was the same age as him, but was still naughty and ignorant.

Director Yang took Song Qintang to a private restaurant on West Street, a place their department frequented.

But today it's just the two of them.

During the meal, she placed the braised fish that Song Qintang loved into her bowl and sighed, "I was away on a business trip for a while, and when I came back, I heard about what your husband did at the hospital."

"Not only did they abandon you at the scene of the car accident, they also brought people to seize your mother's hospital room."

She sighed again after saying that.

Seeing the sad expression on her face, Song Qintang quickly put down her chopsticks, squeezed Director Yang's hand, and said, "Director, I'm fine, it's all over now."

She always felt that Director Yang seemed preoccupied and different from usual when he left the hospital.

Although Director Yang usually cared about her, he never mentioned her family affairs in private.

"It's tough on you, having to shoulder so many responsibilities all by yourself." Director Yang said with a sad expression.

"only...."

Seeing that she hesitated to speak, Song Qin did not interrupt, but simply watched her quietly.

Director Yang gave Song Qintang a deep look, as if he had mustered a lot of courage before speaking, "Qintang, I didn't want to interfere in your private life, but... we're husband and wife, and we can discuss anything. In any case, you should go back to the Wu family first, sort things out, and then it won't be too late to move out."

Song Qintang lowered her eyes silently and thought for a few seconds.

It's not hard to see that Director Yang's deep concern stemmed from Wu Haoqi.

He must have approached Director Yang privately, or perhaps he put pressure on him.

In short, he never thought about her.

I never imagined how difficult it was for her in the workplace.

In matters between them, he always used his position as a leader to pressure her.

Fortunately, Director Yang is an upright and tolerant leader. Even though Wu Haoqi had caused trouble for the department many times, Director Yang did not make things difficult for her.

If it were someone with a narrow mind, she might not even be able to keep her job.

Song Qintang did not refute or complain, because she knew that complaining would only make Director Yang's situation more difficult.

She always felt that their private matters should not be brought up at work.

Furthermore, Song Qintang knew that if she didn't go back, Wu Haoqi would only embarrass her more, or even implicate other colleagues in the department.

Director Yang looked at Song Qintang with a troubled expression.

Actually, she already knew that the young couple wanted to divorce.

This wasn't something someone else told her; it was Wu Haoqi who said it himself.

His words were full of blame towards Song Qintang, placing all the blame on her.

She even put on a pitiful look.

Looking at the person he had personally nurtured, how could Director Yang not understand Song Qintang? She was definitely not as bad as Wu Haoqi described.

She knew that if she didn't intervene, Wu Haoqi would definitely make a scene at the hospital leadership.

In the end, only Song Qintang will be hurt.

If it weren't for his antics, Song Qintang would have already been promoted.

How could she not feel sorry for the people she trained herself?

She hoped that Song Qintang would be doing well, and even more so that she could handle this matter well and return to being that free and lively girl.

Director Yang held Song Qintang's hand, speaking earnestly like a mother: "I know you haven't had a good time with the Wu family these past few years."

"Based on what he's done, he doesn't deserve to be your bed partner, but the most helpless saying in this world is that you can't fight city hall."

After saying that, Director Yang looked into Song Qintang's eyes and said, "Qintang, plan carefully before you act!"

"There's another saying: if things don't go as planned, then it's better to do the opposite!"

Song Qintang opened her mouth but didn't speak; she seemed to understand what Director Yang meant.

She knew in her heart that Wu Haoqi did not agree to a divorce, and even if she moved out, her job would always be there.

She couldn't escape it, nor could she avoid it.

Within the Wu family, some people were even less willing to let her go back, and even less willing to let her get entangled with Wu Haoqi.

She looked up at Director Yang and said, "Director, I understand. I'll be back in a bit."

Three years have passed, she doesn't care about these few days.

Everyone here is a smart person; they understand immediately.

Director Yang's eyes welled up with tears. He picked up his chopsticks and piled a lot of food on Song Qintang's plate: "Qintang, you are the one I trained and value the most. When you are free, I will definitely cook for you myself to celebrate."

Some things are better left unsaid, so Director Yang brought up Sun Tzu's Art of War and taught Song Qintang a lot.
