Chapter 1: Unwilling
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Beep... Beep... Beep... Beep..." Fang Ya lay on the hospital bed, listening to the sound of the monitoring equipment.
She looked up and saw that the ceiling above her head was badly damaged.
She had been in this hospital for three months.
Half a year ago, when she was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer, she was sent to the city central's hospital for treatment.
However, the high cost of treatment was simply not something Fang Ya could afford.
She had no choice but to transfer to this small hospital that was close to the county town for a conservative form of treatment.
Even so, Fang Ya did not have any more money to prolong her life...
Two nurses pushed a trolley of medical supplies and walked past Fang Ya's ward.
One nurse glanced at Fang Ya's bed and said to her colleague, "Bed 3 will be deregulated today..."
"Sigh! How pitiful! Isn't that the same as just waiting for death?" The other nurse sighed.
"It can't be helped! She could not pay up!" The nurse did not stop her work and said helplessly.
"I'm just tired of seeing the same thing happening again and again in this hospital!" The nurse continued speaking, and she glanced at Fang Ya again.
"I heard that she used to have a rich husband!" Another nurse could not help but become curious. "How did she end up so miserable in her twilight years?"
"Sigh! That's not it! I heard that she used to be the most beautiful woman around!" the nurse said and could not help but feel envious.
"When she married that husband of hers, she originally did quite well." The nurse took out a dose of medicine and gave it to the patient in the ward next to Fang Ya.
After that, she walked out again, her voice trailed off in the distance. "It's just that when women get old, men tend to change their hearts easily."
"This woman is really stupid!" The nurse sighed. "She didn't take a single cent during the divorce and left with a child who wasn't even ten."
"She didn't take any money?" Another nurse glanced at the bedridden Fang Ya, and her eyes were wide with surprise.
"Yes! Otherwise, would she have fallen to such a state now?" The nurse checked the medical records in her hands and continued.
"A divorcee raising a child by herself, and in the end, she got sick and became unable to keep the child..." After putting the medical records away, the nurse took the medicine and walked to another ward. "What a tragedy!"
Another nurse stood at the door and asked curiously,
"What about the child?"
"I heard that she spent a lot of effort to send the child out of the country a few years ago." The nurse walked out and checked the medicine in the cart.
"She never told the child that she was sick..." The nurse could not help but feel sorry for Fang Ya. "Seriously..."
As the two of them were chatting, a few doctors walked over. The two of them instantly shut up and looked at Fang Ya with pity in their eyes.
The doctors walked into the ward together and confirmed that Fang Ya had given up on treatment.
The doctors and nurses removed all the equipment, leaving Fang Ya alone in the ward.
The beeping sound that had been bothering her for three months finally quieted down.
Fang Ya slowly closed her eyes, letting the darkness envelop her.
She was tired...
This life was too tiring!
But a part of her remained indignant.
..
There was a loud noise beside her ears. Fang Ya frowned and slowly opened her eyes.
A bright light shone into her eyes, and Fang Ya quickly squeezed her eyes shut again.
The noise was incessant, and it only seemed to be getting louder and louder.
"Heaven is actually such a chaotic place?" Fang Ya could not help but grumble in her heart.
But then she thought. 'No, that's not right, that's a place that only westerners would go to...
'Then, am I in hell now?'
Fang Ya tried to open her eyes again, but what she saw was a familiar room from a distant memory.
She was looking up at a decorated ceiling, and she was surrounded by curtains hanging around her bed.
Fang Ya raised her hand and rubbed her eyes to confirm everything in front of her.
"Isn't this... my old bedroom?" Fang Ya sat up and looked around.
Although it was the place where she lived decades ago, everything here still felt familiar to Fang Ya.
Just when Fang Ya suspected that this was the process of her entire life flashing before her as she lay dying, a small head suddenly poked in from the door.
"Mom! You're awake!" A childish voice rang out.
Fang Ya spun her head at the voice. It was indeed her daughter, Tang Tang.
Fang Ya blinked her eyes frantically, trying to confirm that everything in front of her was real.
In the next moment, Tang Tang jogged all the way to Fang Ya's arms.
"Mom, the butler said that you were not feeling well and didn't want me to come and disturb you," Tang Tang said aggrievedly.
Fang Ya caressed her daughter's head lovingly, feeling the warmth of her body.
'Oh God! Is this a dream?
'If this is a dream, please let me never wake up for the rest of my life!'
Fang Ya prayed with all her heart....

Chapter 2: This Time, She Was Not Letting Go!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Tang Tang continued complaining to Fang Ya. She said that the butler refused to buy her any delicious cakes and did not allow her to come to her mother's room to disturb her...
As Fang Ya listened to her daughter's words, fragments of memories kept flashing through her mind.
If all of this was real, then was she really... reborn?
Fang Ya hugged her daughter tightly, feeling the long-lost warmth.
She did not know what day it was, but since she was still here, it meant that she and Tang Fu had not divorced yet.
Listening to her daughter's words, Fang Ya vaguely remembered that a month before her divorce from Tang Fu, she fell seriously ill.
This illness caused her to be bedridden for half a month.
Half a month later, she discovered a video of Tang Fu having an affair with a female secretary. The female secretary had barged into her home and said that she was pregnant with Tang Fu's child.
She had tried to reason with Tang Fu, but did not expect Tang Fu to demand a divorce on the grounds that she had never given birth to a son.
It only took two weeks for her to discover Tang Fu's affair.
Fang Ya did not have any attachment to this marriage in the first place.
The reason why the two of them got married was because Fang Ya's stepmother had received a huge gift from Tang Fu. This was an astronomical figure for the Fang family, who was in a rather difficult situation at the time.
Her stepmother had used Fang Ya's dowry to buy a house for her biological son. She did not consider Fang Ya's future at all.
If Fang Ya wanted to break off the marriage, she had to repay Tang Fu's dowry. Helplessly, Fang Ya married a man she did not love.
At that time, Tang Fu was wholeheartedly in love with Fang Ya. He swore that he would not betray Fang Ya.
As a famous nouveau riche in Qin City, Tang Fu was very well-known for paying people to do whatever he wanted.
However, Tang Fu had always been obedient to Fang Ya.
He knew that Fang Ya did not like him mentioning money in front of her. Tang Fu had always deliberately avoided Fang Ya.
Fang Ya had once thought that Tang Fu was true to her. Perhaps, there really was a period of time when he was.
Fang Ya had once felt that she had really met the right person.
Although Tang Fu was an uncultured person, fortunately, he was very good to Fang Ya.
Fang Ya had thought that the two of them could live like this for the rest of their lives.
It was not until an anonymous express delivery arrived at the Tang family when Fang Ya discovered the fact that her husband was having an affair.
"There's nothing to say! Let's divorce!" When questioned, Tang Fu waved his hand impatiently and said in an unbothered fashion.
"Why?" There was no sadness on Fang Ya's face, only confusion.
"I want a son!" Tang Fu became even more agitated.
"Is that why you cheated?" Fang Ya asked incredulously.
"I had no choice!" Tang Fu said matter-of-factly.
"A daughter is a loser! My future property can only be inherited by my son!" Tang Fu said coldly.
Fang Ya was in greater disbelief when she heard Tang Fu's words about her daughter.
At that moment, she finally made up her mind to divorce!
Fang Ya patted the little head in her arms and pulled herself back from her memories.
Since the heavens were willing to give her another chance, she would not repeat the same mistake!
She must fight for what was hers to the end!
She would not let herself and her daughter go through the same suffering!
At that moment, the butler, Mr. Tang, knocked on the door and walked in. "Madam, the master said that he won't be coming back to eat today."
Fang Ya looked at Mr. Tang, nodded, and did not say anything.
In the past, she had always thought that Tang Fu was busy with work and could not come home.
She always told Mr. Tang to prepare nourishing soup for Tang Fu's body.
Now it seemed that she had been the absolute fool!
Mr. Tang saw that Fang Ya did not respond. He frowned and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll head down first."
"Mr. Tang!" Fang Ya suddenly called Mr. Tang. "What's the date today?"
Mr. Tang was stunned for a moment. Although he was a little confused, he answered truthfully, "September 2nd."
"Okay, you can go down now," Fang Ya said indifferently.
In another two or three days, Fang Ya would discover the cheating video, and Tang Fu's secretary would come looking for her.
At this moment, Fang Ya only had one thought. She wanted to do everything she could to fight for the best interests of herself and her child!
Carrying her daughter, Fang Ya picked up the phone by the bed and dialed a number from her memory.
"Hello? Mrs. Tang?" The other party picked up the phone and seemed a little surprised.
Fang Ya replied with an affirmative grunt before saying, "Lawyer Lin, I have something I would like to discuss with you."
The other party hesitated for a moment before saying, "Okay! I'll go to the residence to look for you in the afternoon."
"No need!" Fang Ya refused. "I'll go to the law firm in the afternoon."
Lawyer Lin did not respond. After a moment, he said, "Okay! I'll wait for you at the law firm."
Fang Ya hung up, and her gaze met Tang Tang's, who was looking at her in confusion.
Fang Ya smiled and said, "Mommy will bring Tang Tang to have cake, okay?"
"Okay!" Tang Tang immediately beamed and said.
Fang Ya hugged her daughter tightly again. This time, she would not let go again!

Chapter 3: Preparing For A Downpour
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Ya brought Tang Tang to the mall to buy a cake. Then, they went to the law firm not far from the mall.
Lawyer Lin was already waiting in the office.
"Tang Tang, why don't you go play with Xiao Xia for a while?" Fang Ya asked after she opened the cake for Tang Tang.
Tang Tang pouted and looked at Fang Ya somewhat unwillingly.
Lin Bin gestured to his secretary, Xiao Xia.
Xiao Xia immediately went forward and extended her hand to Tang Tang. "I have a lot of toys over there. Tang Tang, can you go with me to take a look?"
Tang Tang immediately let go of Fang Ya's hand when she heard that there were toys. She obediently followed Xiao Xia out of the office.
After the office door closed, Fang Ya immediately schooled her face and looked at Lin Bin. "Lawyer Lin, I have something to ask you."
Lin Bin looked at Fang Ya's solemn expression, and his heart skipped a beat. Fang Ya quickly caught on to his unnatural behavior.
Lin Bin was Tang Fu's consultant lawyer. As a nouveau riche who did not know much about the law, Tang Fu had a lot of trust in Lin Bin.
If Tang Fu had any private matters, he would definitely be the first to tell Lin Bin.
Therefore, since Tang Fu already had the intention to divorce her, Lin Bin must have already known about it.
"Mrs. Tang, what is it that you want to ask?" Lin Bin looked at Fang Ya with a professional smile on his face.
Fang Ya pondered for a moment before asking, "If I divorce Tang Fu, how much property will Tang Tang and I get?"
Hearing Fang Ya's question, Lin Bin was really shocked.
He almost blurted out. "How did you know?"
However, in the next moment, he stopped what he was about to say and asked instead, "Why would you have such an idea, Mrs. Tang?"
"It's just to prepare for a rainy day." Fang Ya picked up the coffee in front of her and took a light sip.
The slightly bitter taste made Fang Ya unable to hold back a frown.
"If both parties are not at fault, the share of the husband and wife's common property should be divided equally," Lin Bin explained in detail.
"As for the issues of the child and education, they will be settled through further negotiations." Lin Bin continued.
Fang Ya nodded and smiled bitterly. "Tang Tang must be with me..."
"Tang Fu... doesn't like Tang Tang." Fang Ya lowered her head slightly. No one could see her expression.
"Perhaps Mr. Tang doesn't want to divorce you?" Lin Bin tried to persuade her.
Fang Ya raised her head and looked at Lin Bin with a burning gaze. Lin Bin subconsciously averted his gaze.
Fang Ya smiled slightly. From Lin Bin's reaction, she could already imagine what the outcome would be.
"Let me get this straight, if one party made a mistake and a breach of the law somewhere, I... The other party can gain more?" Fang Ya confirmed again.
Lin Bin's gaze was fixed on Fang Ya's face, then he nodded.
"Yes! As long as there is sufficient evidence."
"Okay, I understand! Thank you for today, Lawyer Lin!" Fang Ya said as she stood up.
Lin Bin looked at Fang Ya's back and could not help but let out a soft sigh.
Who knew that Fang Ya would raise her guard at this time? Lin Bin almost choked on the spot.
"I may need to trouble you again soon," Fang Ya said politely. Her tone was distant and polite.
Before Lin Bin could answer, Fang Ya had already walked to the door of the office, opened the door, and left.
Lin Bin had to admit that Fang Ya's personality, which was as gentle as spring, was really worlds apart from Tang Fu's.
He did not know what Tang Fu had used to marry Fang Ya back then. Tang Tang was already two years old when Lin Bin got to know the two of them.
Every time he saw Fang Ya, she would always smile lightly and not say much, giving people a quiet and elegant vibe. When he first met Fang Ya, Lin Bin had even suspected that Fang Ya was not particularly intelligent.
Otherwise, why would she fall for a nouveau riche like Tang Fu?
When the two of them stood together, they were like a skylark in the sky and a toad in the water.
Lin Bin did not have much contact with Fang Ya, but he always felt that a man like Tang Fu was not worthy of her.
Therefore, when Tang Fu told Lin Bin that he planned to divorce and marry a woman who could give birth to a son, Lin Bin had already decided to help Fang Ya fight for the rights she most deserved.
When Fang Ya saw Tang Tang and Xiao Xia playing together, she could not be happier.
Xiao Xia gave Fang Ya the impression of a lively and righteous girl.
In her previous life, when she divorced Tang Fu, Xiao Xia had advised her many times to fight for herself and her child.
But at that time, she only wanted to leave Tang Fu as soon as possible and did not want to have anything to do with him.
When she decided to leave home with nothing, Xiao Xia had looked at her with eyes that were filled with disappointment, and she still remembered those eyes to this day.

Chapter 4: Former Home
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Xiao Xia, thank you for your hard work. Thank you!" Fang Ya thanked Xiao Xia sincerely.
This "thank you" was not only for now, but also for the girl who had once stood up for injustice.
Xiao Xia looked at Fang Ya, and the corners of her mouth curled into a big smile. "Mrs. Tang, you're too kind!
"Tang Tang is especially cute! I really like playing with her!" Xiao Xia said and turned to look at Tang Tang. "Isn't that right, Tang Tang?"
Tang Tang nodded. "Yes! I also like you the most, Xiao Xia!"
Fang Ya smiled and went forward to take Tang Tang's hand. "We still have things to do and have to leave first. You can come and play with Xiao Xia next time, okay?"
When Tang Tang heard that she was going to leave, her face immediately fell in aggrievance.
"Mrs. Tang, why don't we let Tang Tang play for a while more?" Xiao Xia tested the waters.
Fang Ya flashed a deeper smile to Xiao Xia. "Don't call me Mrs. Tang. Just call me Fang Ya."
"Ah... that's not good..." Xiao Xia hesitated for a moment before saying, "Then, can I call you Sister Ya?"
"Of course!" Fang Ya's smile deepened, and her tone grew lighter.
Tang Tang looked at the two of them with a half-understanding look. "Then what should I call you Sister Xiao Xia, Xiao Xia?"
Fang Ya and Xiao Xia were both stumped by Tang Tang's question.
Following that, Xiao Xia raised her chin and said to Tang Tang, "Just call me Sister Xiao Xia, then!"
Tang Tang replied with an "Oh" and lowered her head to continue playing with the toy in her hand.
Fang Ya stroked Tang Tang's hair lovingly before saying to Xiao Xia, "I might have to trouble you to take care of Tang Tang for me in the future."
"No problem!" Xiao Xia patted her chest.
As Xiao Xia said this, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.
She looked at Fang Ya skeptically. "Sister Ya, you're..."
"It's nothing. I might be busy in the future," Fang Ya took a deep breath and said.
"I don't have anyone I can trust in this city... so..." Fang Ya looked at Xiao Xia with some embarrassment.
"Can you please take care of Tang Tang when I'm not here?" Fang Ya asked again.
"Leave it to me!" Xiao Xia immediately agreed.
"Sister Ya, don't take it to heart!" Xiao Xia looked at Fang Ya's indifferent expression and felt her heart ache for her.
"Actually..." Xiao Xia hesitated for a moment, but she still did not tell anyone what she had heard.
She sighed and said, "If you need my help, just tell me!"
Fang Ya knew Xiao Xia's good intentions and thanked her again.
After leaving the law firm with Tang Tang, Fang Ya dug deep into her memories and walked into a deep alley.
This was the place where her father had lived before he died. It was also the place where her stepmother had lived after she was chased out of the house by her daughter-in-law.
Ever since her father married a new wife, Fang Ya had had very little contact with the family.
However, her stepmother had still traded her happiness in exchange for her son's marriage. After her father died, Fang Ya broke off contact with the family.
This time, Fang Ya only remembered that her mother's dowry had not been given to Fang Ya before her father died.
For Fang Ya, that was the only thing her mother had left for her.
However, her father had used it as a betrothal gift for her stepmother, Shao Xiang.
In her previous life, Fang Ya had gone to Shao Xiang's residence to look for her stepmother a few months after her divorce.
However, it was only then that she heard that her stepmother had passed away not long ago.
This was also a great regret for Fang Ya in her previous life. This time, she had to think of a way to get her mother's belongings back!
Fang Ya walked into the alley. Both sides of the alley were piled with all kinds of miscellaneous items.
It was difficult for the two of them to walk side by side in the alley.
They walked all the way to the deepest part of the alley. A rusted and corroded iron door appeared in front of Fang Ya.
Seeing her former home in such a dilapidated state, Fang Ya's heart was filled with sorrow.
"Mom, where is this place?" Tang Tang asked curiously.
Tang Tang had lived in a relatively affluent environment since she was young. She had never been to such a dilapidated place.
To her, everything here was new and strange.
Fang Ya took a deep breath and said, "This... used to be my home."
Tang Tang looked at Fang Ya in confusion, as if she did not quite understand what "used to be my home" meant.
At that moment, a woman pushed open the door from inside, holding a basin of water that was about to be splashed out.
The woman looked up and saw the person in front of her and could not help but be startled.
Fang Ya looked at the woman, and a trace of surprise flashed across her eyes.
The two of them stared at each other, not moving for a long time.

Chapter 5: May I Come In?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In Fang Ya's impression, her stepmother was a woman who was good at dressing up and always tidied herself up.
Although Fang Ya had a bad relationship with her stepmother, she had to admit that her stepmother, Shao Xiang, carried herself like the ideal lady.
However, when she saw Shao Xiang with disheveled hair and a dirty face, Fang Ya was truly shocked.
Shao Xiang had not expected to see Fang Ya again. After the initial shock, she felt even more embarrassed.
Tang Tang pulled Fang Ya's hand and said, "Mom, can we go into your house?"
Tang Tang's words made Shao Xiang notice the little girl next to Fang Ya.
She was a little girl who looked obedient and smart.
She had inherited all of Fang Ya's strengths and not any of her father's genes.
Fang Ya looked at Shao Xiang and asked after a long while, "Can... We come in?"
Shao Xiang did not expect Fang Ya to make such a request. She was stunned for a moment before she said, "Of course."
She stood aside and let Fang Ya lead her daughter in.
Fang Ya walked into this familiar yet alien home. She looked around and stood in place without moving.
Shao Xiang placed the basin in her hand to the side and said, "You guys sit..."
Fang Ya nodded and pulled Tang Tang to sit on the small couch by the side.
Tang Tang looked at Shao Xiang curiously, as if she wanted to see who this person at her mother's house was.
"This is... your daughter?" asked Shao Xiang as she looked at Tang Tang, who blinked in return.
"Yes..." Fang Ya nodded and then said to Tang Tang, "Call..."
She hesitated for a moment and then said, "Call her Mrs. Fang!"
Shao Xiang smiled bitterly. She naturally knew that her relationship with Fang Ya was not good enough for Fang Ya's daughter to address her as her grandmother.
Back then, for the sake of her son's marriage, she had not hesitated to sell Fang Ya to Tang Fu. It was natural for Fang Ya to hate her.
Moreover, her son and daughter-in-law had chased her out. What right did she have to ask Fang Ya to treat her better?
Looking at the bitter expression on Shao Xiang's face, Fang Ya pondered for a moment before getting straight to the point.
"I want my mother's belongings back," Fang Ya said bluntly.
Shao Xiang was stunned for a moment, then she nodded.
"Okay! Wait for me!"
Shao Xiang walked into her room and took out a small box from a cabinet.
This was her last remaining property, and it was also the property that she did not dare to dispose of privately.
She knew that Fang Ya would one day come and take back her mother's memento.
She had already snatched away the happiness of Fang Ya's father and Fang Ya's future. This memento was what Fang Ya was rightfully owed!
Fang Ya looked at Shao Xiang holding a small box and wiping the non-existent dust off, treating it like treasure.
"Take a look..."Shao Xiang said and handed the small box to Fang Ya.
Fang Ya stood up and took the small box. She opened the lock and saw her mother's memento placed safely inside.
It was a pair of pure gold earrings and a pair of finely made pure gold bracelets.
Fang Ya looked at the mementos, and her eyes immediately became moist.
"Keep them well!" Shao Xiang said, looking at Fang Ya with slight tenderness in her eyes.
"All these years... I've let you down!" Shao Xiang said sincerely.
Fang Ya covered the box and said earnestly, "Thank you."
Shao Xiang did not expect to hear Fang Ya's thanks, and her eyes also turned red.
Tang Tang looked at Shao Xiang curiously. "Mrs. Fang, what's wrong?"
Shao Xiang wiped her already slightly wet eyes. "I'm happy."
Tang Tang looked back and forth between Shao Xiang and Fang Ya with a dubious look.
Fang Ya suddenly remembered that Shao Xiang had died of a sudden heart attack in her previous life.
She looked at Shao Xiang and asked sincerely, "Are you... okay?"
"Are you feeling unwell?" she asked as she looked at Shao Xiang's slightly skinny appearance.
Shao Xiang's tears finally rolled down from the corner of her eyes.
She shook her head and said, "I'm fine... I'm fine..."
Tang Tang immediately took out her little handkerchief and handed it over. "Mrs. Fang, my mother said that when you want to cry, you have to use a handkerchief to wipe your eyes. You can't use your hands to wipe your eyes!"
Shao Xiang took the handkerchief with trembling hands and said to Fang Ya, "You have really taught your daughter well!"
Shao Xiang calmed down for a moment before saying, "It's already noon. Why don't we... eat before we leave?"
Fang Ya hesitated and did not reply immediately.
However, Tang Tang opened her mouth at that moment.
"Mommy, I'm hungry."
"I will go and cook immediately! You can eat at once, Tang Tang!" Without waiting for Fang Ya's reply, Shao Xiang had already turned around and entered the kitchen.

Chapter 6: Ms. Fang
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the end of the meal, Fang Ya and Shao Xiang took in a much-needed, rare moment of peace like never before.
After the meal, Fang Ya left with Tang Tang.
Before she left, she gave Shao Xiang her cell phone number and told her to call her if she felt unwell.
Fang Ya hugged her mother's belongings tightly in her arms. At that moment, she suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of relief.
In her previous life, she had always lived in constant struggle and pain, burdened by scars of the past.
Even after she left Tang Fu, she had never truly felt relieved or truly happy.
But now, she realized that perhaps only by letting go of some things could she obtain more!
She brought Tang Tang back to the Tang family where Uncle Tang welcomed her at the door. "Madam, Sir has returned."
Fang Ya nodded. She did not return to the master bedroom but instead brought Tang Tang back to her room.
"Mother, I was very happy today." Tang Tang sat on her small bed, shaking her calves as she waited for Fang Ya to untie her braids.
Fang Ya smiled and said sincerely, "I was also very happy."
Tang Tang turned her head to look at Fang ya and asked sincerely, "When are we going to go to Ms. Fang's house again?"
"Do you like Ms. Fang?"Fang ya asked. For some reason, there was a hint of anticipation in her tone.
"Yes! Mother-in-law's cooking is really delicious!"Tang Tang raised her hands and waved them as she said happily.
A smile hung on Fang Ya's face. "Okay! Then we'll go to Ms. Fang's house to eat another day."
After hearing that, Tang Tang jumped up on the small bed.
In her previous life, Fang Ya had been tied down by too many emotions and had lost too much.
In this life, she decided to let go of all her worries and follow her heart. Perhaps everything would be different!
After taking a shower with Tang Tang and coaxing her to sleep, Fang ya returned to the master bedroom.
The moment Fang Ya pushed the door open, Tang Fu hung up the phone.
Fang ya pretended not to see it and walked to the wardrobe to take out her pajamas. Then, she walked into the bathroom.
Tang Fu looked at Fang Ya's appearance and inwardly gritted his teeth. When Fang Ya came out of the bathroom, she still ignored Tang Fu.
Tang Fu finally could not hold it in anymore and asked angrily, "Where did you go today?"
Fang Ya sat in front of the dressing table and quietly got to work on her skincare products.
Seeing that Fang Ya did not answer, Tang Fu suddenly got up and quickly walked behind Fang Ya. "I'll ask again, where did you go today!"
Fang Ya looked at Tang Fu from the mirror and said expressionlessly, "To find lawyer Lin."
"You..."Tang Fu was suddenly angry. "Why did you go to find lawyer Lin?"
"I had some legal questions that I wanted to ask," Fang Ya answered simply.
Tang Fu glared at Fang Ya fiercely. "What did you ask?"
"About friends," Fang Ya answered perfunctorily.
"You... have a friend?" Tang Fu snorted, but he seemed to be relieved.
Today, he heard the staff of the law firm saying that Fang Ya had gone to see lawyer Lin.
But when Tang Fu called lawyer Lin to ask about the situation, lawyer Lin had only replied that it was related to the privacy of the client and was not convenient to disclose it.
Tang Fu was helpless and could only force Fang Ya to spit it out.
Fortunately, both of them had said that it was about Fang Ya's friend, so Tang Fu was relieved.
"Your friend... If there's anything you need help with, let her come to me!" Tang Fu sat by the bed and said to Fang Ya.
"Okay," Fang Ya answered unhurriedly.
Tang Fu took no notice of Fang Ya's tone and only said, "I, Tang Fu, don't have other abilities, but I'm rich!"
As Tang Fu said that, his smile became even more savage.
Fang Ya did not want to pay attention to Tang Fu, so she walked to the other side of the bed and went to bed to rest.
Tang Fu looked at Fang Ya's appearance and suddenly felt a little disappointed. The two of them had been married for so many years, and Fang Ya had always been cold to him.
Originally, on account of Fang Ya's beauty and intelligence, Tang Fu had always been proud of marrying her. But now, there were many beautiful women around him, and as a mother, Fang Ya had grown even less charming.
Tang Fu muttered a few words and turned over to get on the bed.
Fang Ya slowly opened her closed eyes and listened to the snoring sound beside her.
After so many years, Fang Ya thought she had gotten used to this snoring sound, but it still sounded so harsh today!
That night, Fang Ya had many dreams.
From meeting Tang Fu for the first time to being forced to get married and have children, to the end of the divorce.
In Fang Ya's dreams, she had left Tang Fu with her children and lived alone in another city.
In order to give her children a better life, she worked all kinds of jobs.
From cleaning to babysitting, Fang Ya would try to make money in whatever manner she could.
She did not think of remarrying, because her previous marriage had made her lose confidence in men.
When she was tired, she had hoped to have a shoulder to lean on.
However, she was always alone until her death....

Chapter 7: Detective Agency
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In her dream, the moment the doctor pulled out the oxygen tube, the feeling of rapid hypoxia and suffocation struck again.
Fang Ya's eyes widened and she breathed hard.
She tried hard to blink her eyes, trying to peer into the darkness.
There was a decorated roof above her head, and she still heard the unceasing, thunderous snoring.
Fang Ya exhaled lightly and turned around to distance herself from the snoring.
...
Over the next few days, Fang Ya would go out every day. She would either buy some things or visit friends whom she had not seen for a long time.
Occasionally, she would hear her friends talking about the various changes, which always made Fang Ya feel as if a lifetime had passed.
Ever since Fang Ya got married, she had almost cut off all social contact. She had no friends or relatives.
Ever since she met Shao Xiang, Fang Ya seemed to have changed into a different person. She was more willing to walk towards her former life.
She was waiting, waiting for the chance to truly be reborn!
Finally, one morning, Fang Ya had just packed up her things and was ready to bring Tang Tang to find Xiao Xia.
Uncle Tang walked over and said that there was an unsigned document that he wanted to give to Fang Ya.
Fang Ya took the document bag. She was neither surprised nor confused.
She calmly opened the document bag and saw the evidence of Tang Fu's infidelity.
Fang Ya put away the evidence. She did not have any other reaction. Instead, she brought Tang Tang to the law firm.
When Lin Bin saw Fang Ya, he was hesitating about what to say.
Fang Ya smiled and asked Lin Bin, "Is Xiao Xia Here?"
Lin Bin was a little surprised. He nodded blankly and said, "Yes!"
"Okay!" As Fang Ya said that, she led Tang Tang inside.
Lin Bin reached out his hand and called out, "Wait a moment."
Fang Ya turned her head to look at Lin Bin in confusion. "What's the matter, lawyer Lin?"
Lin Bin hesitated for a moment before he said, "The matter you asked about last time..."
Fang Ya smiled at Lin Bin. "There's no rush."
Lin Bin looked at Fang Ya's confident look and felt that Fang Ya seemed to have already known something.
Looking at Fang Ya's back view as she left, Lin Bin made up his mind to fight for the most rights and benefits for her as humanly possible. Because she deserved it!
Fang Ya brought Tang Tang to find Xiao Xia and chatted with her for a while.
Xiao Xia said mysteriously, "President Tang brought a female secretary here that day."
"That woman was just clinging onto President Tang's body. She looked like she had no bones." Xiao Xia clicked her tongue and said.
Fang Ya nodded and said, "Thank you for telling me this."
"I'm just feeling sorry for you." Xiao Xia gritted her teeth and said, "What right does that Tang Fu have!"
"You're such a good woman, yet he still goes out and flirts with other women!" Xiao Xia's tone was indignant, sounding very displeased for Fang Ya's sake.
"If you ask me, only a man like He Feng is worthy of you!" Xiao Xia said with admiration in her eyes.
"He Feng?" This name was not unfamiliar to Fang Ya.
Many years later, this name would appear every day in the newspapers and news. He would become the most powerful man in the Empire and become the general of the Empire.
However, at that moment, He Feng seemed to be having a headache over an ill-suited marriage.
Fang Ya knew that Xiao Xia was really doing this for her own good.
Fang Ya patted Xiao Xia's shoulder in a comforting manner and said, "It's alright, this... this is pretty good!"
Xiao Xia was stunned for a moment before saying, "Right! This is pretty good! Hurry up and leave him!"
"Don't worry! Lawyer Lin will definitely help you fight for the most possible rights and interests!" Xiao Xia made a gesture of encouragement.
Fang Ya smiled and said, "Can you help me take care of Tang Tang for a while? I want to go out and take care of some things."
Xiao Xia nodded heavily. "No problem! I will take good care of Tang Tang!"
After Fang Ya thanked him, she followed the guidance of a friend and found a detective firm that specialized in investigating evidence of other people's infidelity.
Fang Ya walked in and explained her situation.
The other party sized up Fang Ya from head to toe and could not help but sigh, "Your man is really..."
"With such a beautiful wife, he actually went out to look for other women!" That person sighed, "Tsk tsk, what a waste of God's gift!"
Fang Ya ignored the other party's teasing and only took out a card, saying, "This is half of the deposit. After the deed is done, I will pay the other half to you."
The person took the card and sniffed it, then nodded. Fang Ya picked up her bag and left without any hesitation.
Although Tang Fu was rich, he had always been very strict with Fang Ya's spending. These few days, Fang Ya had been buying things and selling them for money. She finally had enough money.
Fang Ya had to collect enough evidence to really get everything she wanted. When Fang Ya returned to the law firm, she saw Tang Fu rushing over.
The two of them met at the door. Tang Fu frowned and looked at Fang Ya. "What are you doing here?"
"Tang Tang said that she wanted to play with Xiao Xia, so she came over," Fang Ya answered without hesitation.
Tang Fu frowned deeply and looked at Fang Ya with doubt.

Chapter 8: Reason For Divorce
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Ya came to the reception room and saw that Tang Tang was already asleep on the sofa.
Xiao Xia was carrying a laptop and sitting at the side, working seriously.
Fang Ya walked in.
When Xiao Xia saw her, she immediately stood up, but when she saw Tang Fu behind her, her expression changed slightly.
"Sister Ya, Tang Tang was tired from playing just now, so she fell asleep." As Xiao Xia said this, her gaze swept over Tang Tang.
Fang Ya walked forward gratefully. "Sorry to trouble you!"
Xiao Xia said nonchalantly, "It's alright! It's nothing! It's my fault for liking Tang Tang so much!"
She glanced at Tang Fu again and said, "Since you're back, I'll go to work first."
"Otherwise, lawyer Lin will deduct my salary in a while," Xiao Xia said as she held her notebook and left.
Fang Ya walked to Tang Tang's side and gently stroked Tang Tang's forehead, which was slightly covered with sweat.
Xiao Xia carefully covered her with a blanket. Tang Tang slept very comfortably.
"I need to talk to you," Tang Fu said. He walked to the sofa on the other side and sat down.
Fang Ya did not speak, nor did she turn her head to look at Tang Fu.
Tang Fu saw that Fang Ya was ignoring him. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let's divorce!"
Fang Ya did not raise her head. She only responded with an "Mm" and gently patted Tang Tang's body.
Seeing that Fang Ya was completely unmoved, Tang Fu's brows furrowed tightly.
"I will give you what you deserve, so that you and your daughter can live comfortably for the rest of your lives." Tang Fu gave what he thought was the most generous condition.
Fang Ya's reply was still an "Mm".
Tang Fu was getting a little angry. "Can you give me some reaction?!
"I feel like I'm talking to a mannequin, staring off into the distance with those dead-fish eyes!" Tang Fu said with some irritation.
Fang Ya finally turned her head and looked at Tang Fu. "Do what you want to do."
Hearing Fang Ya's indifferent answer, Tang Fu instantly exploded.
"It's always like this!" Tang Fu said angrily, "Can't you give me a normal reaction!"
"What is a normal reaction?" Fang Ya looked up at Tang Fu and asked.
"Just..." Tang Fu was stunned for a moment. He did not think about what kind of reaction was normal.
"At least you have to ask me the reason for the divorce!" Tang Fu held it in for a long time and finally came up with a question.
"Okay..." Fang Ya said obediently, "Why do you want to divorce?"
Tang Fu answered fiercely, "I don't like you anymore!"
"I want to find a woman who can give birth to a son for me!" Tang Fu glared at Tang Tang who was lying on the sofa.
Before Tang Fu could say something even more outrageous, Fang Ya suddenly stopped him. "Let's get divorced."
Tang Fu's words were stuck in his mouth. Then, he smacked his lips and said, "That's for the best."
"I'll give you a result that you're satisfied with," Tang Fu promised.
Fang Ya grunted and ignored him.
Tang Fu did not expect that it would be so easy to talk to Fang Ya about a divorce.
He always felt that with Fang Ya's character, even if she agreed to a divorce, she would definitely give him some trouble. However, he did not expect Fang Ya to agree so readily.
Tang Fu felt that Fang Ya seemed to be scheming something.
However, since Fang Ya agreed, Tang Fu did not intend to say anything more. "In that case, let's go and sign the papers!"
Fang Ya looked at the sleeping Tang Tang. "Tang Tang is still sleeping. Wait for her to wake up!"
Tang Fu gritted his teeth and dismissed the idea of directly pulling Tang Tang up. He sat on the sofa and panted heavily.
After waiting for about half an hour, Tang Fu suddenly received a phone call. "What?"
"Okay! I'll be right there!" Tang Fu said anxiously.
He stood up and said to Fang Ya, "I have something to do. I'll leave first. We'll sign the paperwork tomorrow!"
Fang Ya did not reply. She continued to gently pat Tang Tang.
Fang Ya knew that this phone call was from Tang Fu's female secretary. At this moment, the female secretary was using the reason of wanting to abort the child to force Tang Fu to get a divorce.
However, she did not expect that her actions would backfire.
After Tang Fu left, Lin Bin appeared at the door of the meeting room.
He looked at Fang Ya and hesitated for a moment before saying, "What do you want? I will try my best to write it all into the divorce agreement."
Fang Ya slowly stood up and looked at Lin Bin. She said word by word, "I want two-thirds of his assets."
Lin Bin could not help but be a little stunned when he heard Fang Ya's words.
Then, he nodded and agreed, "Okay!"

Chapter 9: Please, Divorce Him!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Ya brought Tang Tang back to the Tang family. After dinner, she washed up and went to bed.
Tang Fu did not come back for the whole night.
Early the next morning, Fang Ya was changing Tang Tang's clothes when she heard noises coming from outside.
She could not hear clearly what was said, but she could tell who it was with that sharp voice.
She smiled mockingly and prepared some food for Tang Tang. She turned on the cartoon, turned up the volume, and left.
Walking into the living room, Fang Ya saw Yang Nuo with her hands on her waist, pointing at Uncle Tang and cursing.
Yang Nuo was none other than Tang Fu's secretary and lover. Looking at her flat stomach, Fang Ya could not help but laugh.
In her previous life, when Yang Nuo "brought the ball" to look for her, Fang Ya had been terrified.
At that time, she did not know what Tang Fu had done, she was just scared out of her wits.
She did not know how to differentiate it at all, she could only be led by the nose by Yang Nuo.
Yang Nuo told her that Tang Fu was already tired of her old age, he had already planned to drive her and her daughter out of the house.
Fang Ya was urged by Yang Nuo to question Tang Fu. Who knew that when she questioned him, Tang Fu would immediately admit that he wanted a divorce.
At that time, Fang Ya's only thought was the sadness of being betrayed. How could she care about anything else?
Now that she looked at Yang Nuo's appearance, Fang Ya really felt that it was funny.
She took a few steps forward and looked at Yang Nuo with a cold gaze. "Yang Nuo, what are you doing in our house so early in the morning?"
"Is Uncle Tang someone you can scold as you please? Do you not want to be a secretary anymore?" Fang Ya questioned coldly.
When Yang Nuo saw that the main character had come out, her gaze immediately became a little aggrieved.
When Uncle Tang saw Fang Ya come out, his expression became a little ugly. "Madam, this..."
Fang Ya smiled at Uncle Tang and said, "It's fine, Uncle Tang. You should go and rest first."
Uncle Tang frowned and wanted to say something, but he was signaled by a look in Fang Ya's eyes, so he shook his head and left.
Fang Ya saw Yang Nuo's instantly aggrieved look, so she walked up and asked, "You came here this early in the morning. What's the matter?"
Yang Nuo suddenly knelt on the ground, her hands tightly clutching the hem of Fang Ya's clothes. "I beg you, I beg you. Can you divorce Ah Fu?"
Fang Ya naturally put on a frown, her head slightly lowered as she looked at Yang Nuo.
Yang Nuo's eyes shone brightly, looking like she was about to cry.
Any man who saw this would definitely feel some pity in their hearts. Unfortunately, Fang Ya was not a man!
Fang Ya took a step back, looking at Yang Nuo grabbing her hand, her expression was slightly displeased. "Let go of me first."
Fang Ya was not displeased by Yang Nuo's words. Instead, she found her hands so dirty!
Yang Nuo refused to let go and continued to hold onto Fang Ya tightly. "I beg you! I have no other way!"
"Stand up first. If you have anything to say, say it!" Fang Ya's tone was slightly impatient.
Seeing this, Yang Nuo let go of Fang Ya's hand and stood up to oppose Fang Ya.
Fang Ya walked to the sofa and sat down, motioning for Yang Nuo to take a seat on the sofa at the side.
Yang Nuo bit her lower lip before walking over and sitting down on the sofa at the side.
"Speak." Fang Ya crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at Yang Nuo.
Yang Nuo wiped the tears that did not fall from the corners of her eyes with a pained expression.
"Sister Ya, I..." Yang Nuo said, looking very pitiful. "I don't want to disturb your life, but I. . ."
"I couldn't help it..."Yang Nuo said as she squeezed out a tear.
"Ah Fu and I are truly in love!"Yang Nuo said as she stared at Fang Ya's face, observing her expression.
Fang Ya did not respond, only watching Yang Nuo's performance.
When Yang Nuo saw that Fang Ya did not respond, her heart suddenly felt a little nervous. But since she was here today, she could not return empty-handed!
Yang Nuo moved closer to Fang Ya's side. "I'm pregnant with his child now. The doctor said that I can only have this child for the rest of my life..."
"I don't want to lose him..." Yang Nuo said, looking very pitiful.
Fang Ya looked at Yang Nuo and finally knew why she had risked everything to force her to leave!
Yang Nuo could no longer have her own child! For some reason, this realization made Fang Ya's heart slightly relax.
When Yang Nuo came to look for her, Fang Ya had only heard her words and believed it.
It was only after the divorce that Fang Ya knew that Yang Nuo's child had already fallen.
Now that she listened to her words again, this must be the reason why she was so desperate!

Chapter 10: Forcing a Divorce
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The corner of Fang Ya's mouth curled up slightly, looking almost provocative to Yang Nuo.
Yang Nuo's heart skipped a beat. She secretly swore in her heart that she would get Fang Ya to agree to the divorce no matter what!
This was her last chance! Tang Fu was her last bet, and she could not let go no matter what!
Fang Ya, on the other hand, felt that Tang Fu was laughable in her heart.
He wanted a son with all his heart, and he probably would not be able to have a son with this woman in front of him in this lifetime.
However, in Fang Ya's memory, Tang Fu and Yang Nuo gradually fell out after they got together.
She could not remember if there were any children between the two of them. She only remembered that Tang Fu did not have a son by his side to be filial to.
But from the beginning to the end, Tang Fu and Yang Nuo did not divorce. Perhaps, she and Tang Fu had been a mismatch since the beginning, so they could not really go on...
Seeing Fang Ya's mocking attitude, Yang Nuo was very unhappy.
Yang Nuo stood up and looked at Fang Ya from top to bottom. "You... are you going to divorce him?"
Fang Ya tilted her head slightly and looked at Yang Nuo. "I'm still married to him..."
"So what!" Yang Nuo said indifferently.
"You've seen the things I sent you!" Yang Nuo snorted. "You should know that he doesn't love you!"
"You're cheating!" Fang Ya's tone was still calm.
The expression on Yang Nuo's face had become a little ferocious. "I advise you to divorce him as soon as possible!"
"He doesn't love you!" Yang Nuo said and puffed out her chest, looking very confident. "There won't be a future between the two of you!"
"He promised me that he would raise this child with me!" Yang Nuo said with a satisfied smile on her face.
She reached out her hand and gently touched her stomach, looking so pleased with herself.
"Divorce him quickly!"Yang Nuo became arrogant. "Otherwise, you will only become a woman who has been abandoned!"
"Okay..." Under Yang Nuo's repeated attacks, Fang Ya only said this calmly.
Yang Nuo was about to be impassioned, but she did not want to be choked back by Fang Ya's words. She blinked her eyes, seemingly a little confused.
Fang Ya simply kept looking at her, her expression unchanged.
After a while, Yang Nuo asked in a daze, "What did you say just now?"
"I said yes!" Fang Ya still had a smile on her face. She stood up and looked at Yang Nuo.
"Didn't Tang Fu tell you yesterday?" Fang Ya's expression was full of sarcasm. "Yesterday, he already said that he wanted to divorce me."
Yang Nuo was dumbfounded. What she had done today actually looked so ridiculous!
Fang Ya turned to Uncle Tang, who had been hiding not far away, and said, "Uncle Tang, see the guest out!"
Uncle Tang immediately rushed out and pulled Yang Nuo's arm, wanting to pull her out.
Yang Nuo was naturally dissatisfied with such a result. She wanted to say something, but Uncle Tang forcefully pulled her away.
At first, Uncle Tang had originally wanted to chase her away without Fang Ya's knowledge. Who knew that Fang Ya would suddenly appear? This matter could not be hidden anymore.
Seeing that Fang Ya had managed to subdue Yang Nuo with just a few words, Uncle Tang originally felt some comfort in his heart. However, when he heard that Fang Ya had agreed to divorce Tang Fu, Uncle Tang also felt a little regretful.
Although Fang Ya rarely smiled at home, she still respected him as a butler. She was gentle and indifferent, giving people a feeling of being aloof from worldly affairs.
However, Uncle Tang knew that if anything touched her bottom line, she would definitely fight back with all her might. Especially, when it threatened to harm Tang Tang!
After sending Yang Nuo away, Uncle Tang could not help but shake his head and sigh. "This family will probably be in turmoil in the future!"
Uncle Tang was originally a distant relative of Tang Fu and could be considered Tang Fu's uncle.
Uncle Tang had been working as a butler in a rich family and had a lot of experience in this area.
After Tang Fu became rich, he invited Uncle Tang to come over and work as a butler in his own family. Since they were all relatives, naturally, he could treat uncle Tang better.
Furthermore, Uncle Tang was getting old and thought that going to Tang Fu's house could be considered as going to a home for the elderly.
It was only after coming to Tang Fu's house that Uncle Tang truly understood the true face of a nouveau riche.
Tang Fu did not have any other faults, but he loved to flaunt his wealth too much. He bragged about how rich he was and how he threw away all his money.
However, his family was just a middle-class family in the city. Such a family with a housekeeper was really considered a luxury.
Fortunately, Fang Ya was not a woman who liked to splurge. She had always been diligent and thrifty. She would try her best to help with family matters.
Therefore, Uncle Tang had a good impression of Fang Ya. Ever since he got married to Fang Ya, Tang Fu seemed to have gotten lucky.
He could invest in anything successfully. As a boor, Tang Fu actually relied on this luck to open a company and become a boss.
After all this, Tang Fu really thought he was a big shot.
And because of this, today's matter had come up!
