Xie Meilan learned from Lu's mother that Lu Jie was not divorced at all. His wife was even pregnant with their second child and lived in Singapore to give birth.

This time, Lu's mother came back to deal with her assets in China and was preparing to go to Singapore to accompany her son during the birthing process. Unexpectedly, she encountered an accident.

"You should have heard about Lu Jie's situation. I will sell off my assets and hire the best lawyer." Mother Lu looked at Xie Meilan coldly and said:
"I know that husband and wife are birds of a feather, and they fly away separately when disaster strikes. What's more, you are not husband and wife yet. If you want to leave, I won't stop you."

Xie Meilan gritted her teeth and said, "I want to see Lu Jie."

Xie Meilan would never be willing to give up until she asked Lu Jie about some things in person.

"If you want to see Lu Jie, I can ask a lawyer to arrange it, but why do you want to see him? Do you want money?" Lu's mother said disdainfully.

"I'm with Lu Jie not for money," Xie Meilan said excitedly.

Mother Lu said contemptuously: "I have seen many women like you. If it wasn't for money, how could you be my son's mistress?"

Xie Meilan said emotionally: "I am not a mistress. I didn't know that Lu Jie was not divorced."

Mother Lu said with a smile: "Alright! No need to act in front of me, I am not my son."

Xie Meilan clenched her fists, feeling insulted both physically and mentally.

"My son's case is very serious this time. I have consulted a lawyer. If he loses the case, he will not only be fined a large sum of money, but he may even have to spend a few years in prison."

Xie Meilan frowned and asked, "Is it that serious?"

Lu's mother sighed and said, "I don't know who my son has offended. The police have obtained a lot of evidence this time, which is extremely unfavorable to Lu Jie. The lawyer said the chances of winning are very low."

Xie Meilan suddenly thought of her ex-husband, but then she thought that Wang Gang probably didn't have that much power to beat Lu Jie to a pulp in an instant.

"If you really have feelings for Lu Jie, can you give him some money? He must have given you a lot when you were together." Lu's mother said.

"Money." Xie Meilan hesitated and said, "How much money does Lu Jie need?"

"The more the better." Mother Lu looked at Xie Meilan coldly.

"I don't have money." Xie Meilan said bitterly: "My mother just passed away and I spent a lot of money on medical treatment."

Thinking of her mother's illness, Xie Meilan thought of the police's words again.

If Lu Jie was really involved in Dr. Yang's fraud case, he would be the culprit who killed his mother.

Mother Lu showed an expression of as expected and said, "In that case, go ahead! I will save my son myself."

Xie Meilan wanted to say something, but when the words came to her lips she didn't know how to start.

In the end, she left, drove the Porsche that Lu Jie bought for her, and found a hotel to stay for the night.

At this time, Wang Gang had already returned to his hometown. As soon as Na Wei's car entered the village, it was welcomed by the villagers, and some people even set off firecrackers to celebrate.

Mr. and Mrs. Shen stood at the entrance of the village, smiling from ear to ear.

Na Wei got out of the car and greeted every villager as if he was returning home in glory, so that Li Xiaoyue thought she had come to his hometown, not Wang Gang and Shen Lin's hometown.

Wang Gang handed Na Zixuan to his sister, then greeted his parents. Before he could give them a hug, Mr. and Mrs. Shen pushed him away and ran to Na Zixuan.

"Zixuan, my eldest grandson!" Mr. and Mrs. Shen were as happy as children in front of their child.

Shen Lin handed the child to his mother and said with a smile: "Son, call grandpa and grandma quickly."

Na Zixuan was only one year old, so he couldn't call anyone, but Shen's father and mother were still very happy. Later, Na Zhuoyue called grandpa and grandma sweetly, and the two old people were so happy that they couldn't walk.

Wang Gang and Li Xiaoyue stood aside, watching the heartwarming scene before them, and were also deeply moved.

Maybe Wang Gang is okay, but Li Xiaoyue is really envious.

She lost her parents when she was very young and has been alone ever since, so she developed a free and easy personality, but sometimes she still misses her parents.

"Shen Lei, is this your wife? Why has she changed?" Shen Lei's cousin Shen Zhicheng walked over and said.

"Cousin, this is not my wife. She is the girlfriend of my brother-in-law's younger brother. Her name is Li Xiaoyue. Don't call her that." Wang Gang explained, fearing that Li Xiaoyue would be embarrassed.

"You are Xiaoyue!" Shen Zhicheng slapped his head and said, "I was wondering why you looked so familiar."

This time, when the Shen family was renovating the old house, they asked Shen Zhicheng to help. The Shen family had a decoration group, and Li Xiaoyue was also in it. Sometimes she would give some suggestions. On the contrary, Xie Meilan remained invisible and did not communicate with others.

"Cousin, thank you for helping us with this renovation. You have been busy all the time. My sister and I are in Beijing and it wouldn't have been possible without you." Wang Gang said with a smile while hugging Shen Zhicheng.

"We are all brothers, why be polite! It's not like your sister didn't pay for the decoration." Shen Zhicheng said honestly.

Shen Zhicheng is the son of Wang Gang's uncle. He has a low level of education and could only do hard labor in Beijing. Later, he worked as an assistant in a decoration team. After more than ten years of hard work, he started his own company and took on some small jobs. It happened that the real estate industry was at its peak in the past few years, and his business has developed quite well.

"Xiao Lei, why didn't your wife come?" Shen Zhicheng asked puzzledly.

"She is busy with work and can't come back this time." Wang Gang has not told his parents about the divorce, and he had just told Li Xiaoyue to keep it secret in the car.

This time when he returned to his hometown, Wang Gang wanted to confront his parents, but he planned to wait until the housewarming party was over so as not to spoil their fun.

Na Wei took out a bunch of gifts from the trunk of the car and gave them to everyone he met. The villagers also thought that Na Wei and Shen Lin had made a fortune and praised them in front of Shen's father and mother. The smiles on the two elders' faces had never disappeared since then.

It is a happy thing for any parent to see their children come back and bring honor to the family, and Mr. and Mrs. Shen are no exception.

Their only regret is that their daughter-in-law is busy with work and cannot come back with them.

Wang Gang found an excuse and went with Li Xiaoyue to set up the banquet, temporarily escaping his parents' questioning.

This time, the Shen family held a housewarming party and Na Zixuan's first birthday party together, inviting the whole village to the banquet. Twenty tables were booked for the banquet alone, and they were set up at the entrance of the village.

Li Xiaoyue had a simple stage built in an open area and invited many people to perform, including dragon and lion dances. The scene was extremely lively. It was even more lively than Wang Gang's wedding.

Originally, Shen Lin wanted to pay 50,000 yuan and invite the villagers to have fun in her backyard, but Wang Gang insisted on paying and increased the budget to 200,000 yuan, four times the amount. Naturally, the scale of the event had to be doubled as well, and it almost attracted people from the neighboring village.

Wang Gang helped with the arrangement and invited the villagers to take their seats. He was busy all the time.

Na Wei and Shen Lin were accepting compliments from their fellow villagers, acting like they were returning home in glory.

But as the saying goes, "Extreme joy leads to sorrow", Na Wei received a phone call when he was happiest in his life.

The call was from a colleague at work, who told him shocking news.

His boss Wang Ruizhi became a monk.

When Na Wei heard the news, he thought his colleagues were joking with him.

"Then, Boss, please come back soon! Boss Wang has really become a monk, and he is in the same retreat you took him to last time."

Na Wei was confused, thinking, what's wrong with Mr. Wang! The company is about to raise funds and go public, why are you leaving your family as the founder of the company? (End of this chapter)
