The teacher walking behind them wore an awkward expression.

Back then, Yun Yecheng, who was quite successful in his business, had quite a prestige in the area. She advised him with good intentions, “Mr. Yun, do you have your eyes set on this girl? No one in the welfare center likes her, and she seems a little autistic. I’m afraid that she might be a bit mentally challenged. She never likes to talk and has this despondent look all the time. Looking at her brings one’s spirits down. Plus, she once stole from another girl, so everyone ostracizes her.”

“She stole something?” Li Qin wrinkled her brows and interrupted right away, “No, we can’t accept someone who steals. How can she have such a behavior?! Yecheng, don’t waste any more time on her; let’s go look at other children—”

“Shut it!” he bellowed at her. He turned to the teacher with much dissatisfaction, “Man’s nature at birth is good. The child is still young and has yet to develop a sense of what’s right and wrong. Even if she has erred once, as a teacher, shouldn’t you lead her on the right path? Instead, look, this child is bullied to this extent, and you say that she’s mentally challenged—how could she not be? The children around her bully her, and the teachers don’t care about her; what can a young child like her do?”

The teacher was embarrassed by his moral condemnation. She hurriedly brought Yun Shishi out.

She stood before him and gazed up at the man’s extremely amiable face. Huddling herself into a corner in shock, her lips trembled open.

“I-I’m no thief… I’m really not one… Don’t arrest me, please…”

He felt a sudden and inexplicable ache in his heart.

Although he was clear that he and this child had no blood relations at all, when he saw her fragility, his heart ached so terribly it was suffocating.

Hence, even when his wife repeatedly opposed, he still decided to adopt her.

Thinking back about it, Yun Shishi was still grateful to him.

Having such a miserable childhood, if it were not for his redemption, which gave her a new lease on life, she would not even know how she would turn out to be.

Regardless of how Li Qin and Yun Na treated her, toward him, she was only ever thankful.

After staying silent for a long time, he eventually spoke, “I’ve decided to divorce her. Tomorrow, we are going to file for divorce.”

The ‘her’ he had mentioned was, of course, referring to Li Qin.

Hearing this, she thought that it was quite unexpected.

Divorce?

Dad is going to divorce Li Qin?

She tried to evade the subject. He stood still to regard her. Faltering for a while, she eventually spoke her mind.

“Dad, I support your decision. It’s a wise decision to divorce her.”

“I know.”

“I know that for marriage, one can only encourage mediation and not separation, but she’s too greedy. If you continue to be with her, you’ll only be implicated by her. Dad, why are you tiring yourself this much?”

“It doesn’t matter whether I’m tired or not as I’m already getting on in years.”

A man of his age would have put up with everything possible by now. He was already having one foot in the grave. Getting a divorce at this time would not be pleasant news, and people would expectedly gossip about this.

Still, ultimately, he could not bear to compromise this daughter of his.

“As for you, I feel the most guilt toward you. I am now only aware that the incident six years ago was forced upon you by her… I’m truly a good-for-nothing!”

He stomped on his foot as he said this and threw himself a tight slap.

She stopped him immediately and helplessly said, “Things are already in the past. They’re not worth mentioning now!”
