If you dare harass my woman again, I'll have you arrested immediately.

After Wen Shuang and Ji Shen left, Wen Fanhai immediately told Aunt Chun he wanted a divorce.

Wen Yao was sobbing so hard it seemed as though she might stop breathing. "Dad, you can't do this! Mom truly loves you. During the days you were in prison, you were all she ever thought about!"

Wen Fanhai, furious, shoved her aside. "Stop talking nonsense! You and your mother are cut from the same cloth! I said I'm getting a divorce! Just the thought of keeping such a venomous woman by my side for the rest of my life terrifies me!"

Aunt Chun was weeping uncontrollably. "A-Hai, I followed you in my twenties. Even when you were divorced and had a daughter, I didn’t care. So many people told me not to marry you, that I deserved better. But I went ahead anyway, without hesitation. Now you want to kick me out like this?"

Memories flashed across Wen Fanhai's face. "That was your choice, it has nothing to do with me."

"After more than twenty years of marriage, are you really going to be so heartless?" Aunt Chun held Wen Yao as they cried together. "You’re treating us like this just because of a few baseless things Shuangshuang said. Aren’t you afraid of retribution?"

Wen Fanhai snapped, "Everything Shuangshuang said is true! At least she has evidence. All you two know how to do is put on an act and cry—what else can you do?"

Wen Yao wailed, "Now that my sister's dating a policeman, any evidence she wants is right at her fingertips!"

"Enough of your nonsense!" Wen Fanhai kicked a chair in rage. "Besides slandering your sister, what else are you good for? Shut up!"

...

The Wen family was in absolute chaos.

Later, Wen Fanhai told her about his decision to divorce Aunt Chun.

Wen Shuang was a little surprised. She had thought at most Wen Fanhai would have a huge fight with Aunt Chun, never that he would go so far this time.

After all, their relationship had always seemed quite good.

It seemed that after this ordeal in prison, once Wen Fanhai saw Aunt Chun’s true colors, he was completely disillusioned. And perhaps he also wanted to stand up for his daughter.

Hearing all this, Wen Shuang’s voice softened. "Dad, whatever you decide, I’ll support you."

That afternoon, after rehearsing in the dance hall, Wen Shuang was in the dressing room when someone suddenly burst in, shouting, "So you’re Wen Shuang, the homewrecker!"

The two security guards at the theater entrance couldn’t even hold her back.

The intruder was a young woman, dressed head-to-toe in dazzling designer clothes, carrying the latest limited edition LV bag. She had a delicate, beautiful face, but her words betrayed an utter lack of manners.

Wen Shuang quickly searched her memory. She didn’t recall ever having any dealings with this woman.

"Who are you?" Wen Shuang frowned.

"Who I am doesn’t matter. What matters is I’m here to teach you a lesson!" The girl stepped forward, looking Wen Shuang up and down, a flash of jealousy in her eyes. This woman really was quite attractive—no flaws in her figure or face.

But she still sneered, "I thought you’d be more beautiful, but you’re just so-so. Homewrecker! If you want to dance, just dance. Why are you trying to seduce my Brother Shen? Are you looking for trouble?"

At last, Wen Shuang understood. So this was about Ji Shen.

The news that Ji Shen was officially her boyfriend had gradually spread; by now, everyone in the community knew they were dating.

Clearly, this girl had come looking for her after hearing the news.

The girl’s arrogant voice was loud enough to draw a crowd.

Wen Shuang tossed her hair flirtatiously. "Ji Shen is my boyfriend now, miss. Please mind your language. Calling me a homewrecker only shows your lack of breeding."

Judging by her attire, Wen Shuang guessed she must come from a wealthy family.

"I’ll call you a homewrecker if I want! Why shouldn’t I?" The girl jabbed a finger at her, furious. "Brother Shen and I have known each other since childhood. We’re even engaged! If I hadn’t gone abroad for school, we’d already be married and you’d never have had the chance to seduce him!"

Wen Shuang frowned. Was this girl Ji Shen’s fiancée?

But Ji Shen had never mentioned anything about that.

"What, cat got your tongue? Shameless mistress, seducing my Brother Shen in broad daylight—let’s see how I teach you a lesson today!"

She raised her hand to slap Wen Shuang.

By now, a whole crowd had gathered to watch the drama unfold.

"I can’t believe Wen Shuang is the other woman! I used to be so jealous of her for landing the most eligible bachelor in the capital, Ji Shen! Now his fiancée’s here to set things straight—serves her right!"

"Exactly, I always thought she was the legitimate girlfriend. Turns out she’s just the mistress!"

"She always looks down her nose at people; after this public shaming, what face will she have left at the theater? Didn’t He Luo get fired for a messy private life? Looks like Wen Shuang’s next!"

...

In an instant, Wen Shuang seized the girl’s wrist. "Are you out of your mind?"

Just then, the workday ended, and a call came through—Ji Shen.

Wen Shuang answered almost immediately. "Officer Ji, there’s a woman here claiming to be your fiancée and childhood sweetheart, causing trouble for me."

Ji Shen paused for a long moment. "What?"

The girl whined, "Brother Shen, Wen Shuang is bullying me! She’s grabbing my hand! Come and stand up for me!"

Ji Shen replied, "And who are you?"

The girl’s face froze.

"Brother Shen, it’s Suo Suo—your childhood friend. Don’t you remember? When we were kids, your mother and mine used to say we’d get married when we grew up."

"Oh." Ji Shen’s voice turned icy. "I don’t recall you."

He Suosuo’s face darkened.

Ji Shen said, "Give the phone back to Wen Shuang."

Just as He Suosuo was about to hand it over, Ji Shen’s voice came again, "One more thing: if you harass my girlfriend again, I’ll come and arrest you myself."

He Suosuo was speechless.

Wen Shuang hung up. "Did you hear that? My boyfriend doesn’t even know you. Stop spreading lies—slander is against the law."

Publicly humiliated, He Suosuo might have run away in shame if she were anyone else, but she was used to being pampered. She immediately straightened her neck. "Brother Shen and I grew up together—there’s no way he doesn’t remember me! I even had dinner at his house two years ago!"

Seven minutes later, Ji Shen arrived at breakneck speed.

His first words were to ask Wen Shuang if she was alright.

He Suosuo stamped her foot. "Brother Shen, I’m here!"

Ji Shen glanced at her coolly. "And what does that have to do with me?"
