Jiang Lai said: "I am the worst of the students taught by the teacher."

Wang Ruohua turned her head silently.

This shouldn't be let her Old Cui hear.

Ke Zhongyu was half-believing.

Jiang Lai said again: "The students under the teacher's door are all master-doctorate combined, only I am a master."

Ke Zhongyu remembered that her information was indeed like that, but that information was unreliable; it was so clean, it must have been tampered with.

Professor Wang was here, so he didn't continue to get to the bottom of it, and watched Jiang Lai get in the car and leave.

Wang Ruohua saw the Ke brother and sister standing on the side of the road through the rearview mirror and turned to ask Jiang Lai: "How did you get involved with the Ke brother and sister? The Ke family Eldest Miss has a good personality, but the Ke family Eldest Young Master... is a person with deep city government."

Jiang Lai thought of Shen Xun saying he was old and cunning.

"I have nothing to do with Ke Zhongyu; Ke Zhongying is my friend, and she is very likable."

"Old Zhao likes her the most too, although he scolds this girl for being noisy every day, he values her very much in his heart." Wang Ruohua suddenly stared at her face, "Why do you feel thinner than two days ago? Because you can't eat because of the divorce?"

"No, it's because my stomach is uncomfortable today, and I've been vomiting." Jiang Lai didn't intend to tell the teacher's wife about Shen Xun and Lin Shutong sleeping together, so as not to dirty the teacher's wife's ears.

"Stomach discomfort is also related to emotions." Wang Ruohua took her hand, "I know, you love Shen Xun very much, and the divorce must be very painful, but compared to loving him, you should love yourself more."

Jiang Lai curled her lips: "I don't love him anymore."

Wang Ruohua patted her hand.

"Once the divorce cooling-off period arrives, if you want to get the divorce certificate, you still have to go with Shen Xun. What does Shen Xun say?"

Shen Xun didn't want to divorce.

Even if Shen Xi mentioned it, he would block it.

Clearly everyone wanted them to divorce, and Shen Xun was also with Lin Shutong behind his back, so why didn't he take the initiative to propose a divorce?

She was working like an ox and a horse at home, just so he and Lin Shutong could be poetic and picturesque outside?

What a good abacus.

Jiang Lai said: "I will find a way about the divorce certificate."

The way was to return to the Shen family the next day and let Shen Xun's parents handle it; no one wanted her and Shen Xun to divorce more than them.

Today was still Shen Xi's birthday, but Shen Xi's face was swollen, so she definitely couldn't see anyone, and the birthday wasn't held.

As soon as Jiang Lai appeared at the door of the Shen family, a cup was smashed at her.

She dodged to the side.

Shen Xi saw her dodge and was even more angry, pointing at her and scolding: "You actually dare to come back!"

Shen's father questioned even more aggressively: "Why did you hit Xiao Xi! She is your sister!"

Jiang Lai raised her head unyieldingly: "She is Shen Xun's sister, and I am an orphan."

"You!" Shen's father was so angry his face turned iron blue.

Shen's mother asked: "Are you still the daughter-in-law of the Shen family?"

Jiang Lai said in her heart, no.

They didn't acknowledge it either.

"Jiang Lai, do you know that it's all because of you that my birthday party had to be canceled? Look at this house, we had already decorated it, and I had already told my friends early on that they were coming to play at my house tonight!"

Shen Xi's birthday was held at home every year, for no other reason than to let her friends appreciate the 200-square-meter large flat located in the city center.

Every time it was a big deal to decorate, all showing the luxury of "my family is very rich."

However, such excitement had never had anything to do with her; she was busy in the kitchen, and finally got a disgusted sentence from Shen Xi and her friends.

"You mean her? One of the nannies in our house."

If Shen Xun heard it, he would glare at his sister, but he wouldn't spoil his sister's fun on this happy day.

"These things won't be lost; just invite them again when the face is healed." Jiang Lai ignored her anger and looked at Shen Xun's parents, "I came over today because I have an important matter to find you."

"What important matter could you have?" Shen's mother looked disdainful.

Jiang Lai: "About me and Shen Xun, let's talk in the study."

Shen Xi also wanted to follow in, but was blocked outside by Jiang Lai.

"Why can't I listen!"

Jiang Lai answered unceremoniously: "Because you have a loose mouth."

Shen Xi's mouth couldn't hold the door; who knew if she would hear that she was going to divorce Shen Xun, and if she was happy, she would immediately spread the matter.

Shen Xun, this person, was gentle on the outside, but actually had a strong desire for control; even if they were to divorce, it could only be him who proposed it.

The study door closed, blocking Shen Xi's shouting and screaming.

Shen's father got straight to the point: "What do you want to say?"

Jiang Lai also said frankly: "I want to divorce Shen Xun."

"What?" Shen's mother was stunned for a moment, and then her face was ecstatic. She suddenly leaned over, "Really or fake? Are you really willing to let go of my son, this high branch?"

Shen's father speculated: "Did you climb onto a better one?"

Shen's mother's smile froze, thinking of what Lin Shutong had said last night, and her gaze became resentful again: "Is it your young boss? Did you wear a green hat for my son!"

Shen's father didn't believe it: "Can a young and promising boss take a fancy to you?"

The Shen family's belittling of her was everywhere.

Jiang Lai said calmly: "He doesn't take a fancy to me; I just want to make room for Lin Shutong. Don't you all want her to be your daughter-in-law?"

They did think so, but being laid out by Jiang Lai to their faces made them a little embarrassed.

"Lin Shutong is worthy of my son." Shen's father looked indifferent, "My son can't even take someone like you out. Lin Shutong can help my son in his career, but you can't help with anything, you only know how to spend money."

Shen's mother echoed: "That's right, and you even kept the money for yourself."

"Tell me, you want a divorce, then what?" Shen's father frowned, "My son doesn't agree?"

"He signed it."

"Great!" Shen's mother cheered; this was simply the best news she had heard this year.

Jiang Lai added: "But he doesn't know."

"What do you mean?" Shen's father and mother were confused.

Jiang Lai knew that only Shen's father and mother could help with the divorce certificate, and she didn't intend to hide it.

"Shen Xun wants me to resign and have children at home, but I don't agree; I want a divorce, but he told you he wouldn't divorce me. I secretly let him sign the divorce agreement. Don't worry, there was no tampering with the divorce agreement, and I'm leaving with nothing."

Shen's mother was happy as soon as she heard it.

Jiang Lai finally did something right!

But what she wasn't happy about was: "My son is actually not as good as your three or four thousand job?"

"Yes." Jiang Lai admitted crisply.

Shen's mother sneered: "You got the cheap and still act well; I don't know how much money my son has spent in these four years. But since you are so sensible, let it go for now."

Jiang Lai didn't want to say anything more to them.

"The divorce certificate needs your help; no matter what method you use, I hope that when the divorce cooling-off period arrives, I can get the divorce certificate." She looked at Shen's father, "I know you have always had a way."

Jiang Lai no longer called them Mom and Dad.

Shen's father said decisively: "I will find a way about the divorce certificate."

"Mm." The big matter was settled, and Jiang Lai breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, "Don't let Shen Xun know about this. If he doesn't agree, I will always be your Shen family's daughter-in-law."

This last sentence was like a nightmare to Shen's mother, so she immediately guaranteed: "Don't worry, we won't even tell Xiao Xi."
