Lin Yifei pushed his way through the crowd of onlookers. No one stopped him this time—everyone looked at him with sympathy.

When Gu Yihan saw the crowd disperse, she quickly sidestepped, pressed herself against the wall, took out a book from her bag, and held it up to cover her face.

Xiao He wasn’t as quick to react. He ran straight into Lin Yifei. Pretending not to know him, he gave him a subtle look.

Lin Yifei paused for a moment. He recognized Xiao He. Seeing that he wasn’t in uniform, he guessed he was on a mission.

“Brother Yifei, wait for me!” Hearing Qiao Shuhui’s voice, Lin Yifei quickened his pace.

Qiao Shuhui jogged after him.

Shen Yujie strode to her side and grabbed her wrist. “Xiaohui, if he divorces you, you must tell me.”

He looked at her seriously. “I’ll marry you.”

Qiao Shuhui looked at his battered face. Logically speaking, Lin Yifei’s family background couldn’t compare with Shen Yujie’s.

But she wanted to be someone important. She wanted higher social status.

That was something Shen Yujie couldn’t give her. Only Lin Yifei could.

So she said with difficulty, “Brother Yujie, I won’t divorce Lin Yifei.”

She touched her belly and said apologetically, “I can’t let my child grow up without a complete family. I’m sorry, Brother Yujie.”

After speaking, she shook off his hand and ran toward Lin Yifei.

Although Lin Yifei was walking fast and had already gone far, he still heard their conversation.

He sneered, “Whether we divorce isn’t up to you.”

One walked quickly, the other chased after him. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared from sight.

Gu Yihan had witnessed everything. As soon as she lowered the book from her face, she saw Shen Yujie standing not far away.

He also saw her and gave a bitter smile. “Sister-in-law, when did you get here?”

Gu Yihan felt extremely awkward and laughed dryly. “When you were getting beaten.”

Shen Yujie: “……”

“Well… it’s getting late. I’ll head back first.” After speaking, Gu Yihan ran toward her bicycle.

Looking at her running figure, Shen Yujie shouted, “Sister-in-law!”

“I’m going to follow my family’s arrangements and get married. When you go back, tell Brother Lu for me. Let him come over for a drink sometime.”

Gu Yihan stopped. Inwardly, she complained: Getting married? To whom? When? Can I attend? Why didn’t he explain clearly? It’s making me so curious!

Turning back, she smiled sweetly. “Alright, I’ll tell Lu Huailin.”

She mounted her bicycle and rode quickly back to the family compound.

Shen Yujie turned back into the alley, picked up Qiao Shuhui’s bicycle, and murmured, “I hope you won’t regret it.”

After returning home, Lin Yifei went into the bedroom, opened the wardrobe, and packed a few changes of clothes.

Before the divorce application was approved, he planned to stay in the dormitory for a few days.

Qiao Shuhui entered the bedroom in a sorry state and sat down on the bed.

She stared blankly at him and muttered, “Brother Yifei, I love you. I won’t divorce you.”

Hearing her voice, Lin Yifei’s head throbbed. He shouted angrily, “Shut up!”

“Hearing you call people ‘brother’ makes me sick. I never realized before—you call everyone that.”

Seeing the disgust in his eyes, Qiao Shuhui felt her heart sink.

She gave a miserable smile. “Yifei, I won’t divorce you. If you dare divorce me, I’ll take the child and hang myself at the army gate.”

Lin Yifei froze. He looked at her coldly and said through clenched teeth, “You’re threatening me?”

With reddened eyes, she shouted, “You’re divorcing me! What do you expect me to do?”

“We loved each other so much. You even defied your parents to marry me. Why can’t you forgive me this once?”

“Shen Yujie and I are innocent! I didn’t do anything improper with him!”

Lin Yifei sneered. “You kissed him and you’re still innocent? Do I have to catch you in bed before you admit it?”

“Lin Yifei, don’t think of me as so filthy! You’ll make me regret marrying you!”

Lin Yifei let out a cold laugh, frost filling his eyes.

He said slowly, word by word, “The thing I regret most… is marrying you.”

Qiao Shuhui froze. She tilted her head back and let her tears fall.

She suddenly burst into laughter, then stared at him coldly. “Besides me, who else do you want to marry?”

“Is it that bitch Gu Yihan? Ever since she came here, you’ve changed!”

She lunged at him crazily, scratching his face with her long nails.

“When did you fall for her? Huh? When did that slut seduce you?!”

Even though Lin Yifei dodged quickly, his neck was still scratched. Hearing her increasingly vicious words, he finally snapped.

He slapped her hard. “Are you crazy? If you want to die, I won’t stop you!”

Her ears rang from the slap. She stared at him in disbelief. “You actually dared to hit me?”

Lin Yifei angrily grabbed his clothes. “If you want to keep the child, I’ll take responsibility.”

“If you don’t, I’ll sign the papers when you have the surgery.”

After speaking, he pulled open the door and walked out of the building.

In the empty room, only Qiao Shuhui remained.

She looked at the home she had once carefully decorated.

She cried and laughed. Back then, how much they had loved each other—doing housework together, taking walks, watching movies.

Scene after scene replayed in her mind.

Ever since Gu Yihan came, Lin Yifei had changed.

She whispered, “If you hadn’t appeared… would we still be happy for the rest of our lives?”

The Next Day, After morning training and lunch, Lin Yifei returned to the dormitory.

After searching for a while, he finally found paper and pen and wrote a divorce application.

In Commander Zhang’s Office, Lin Yifei pressed his lips together and handed over the application.

Commander Zhang glanced at it, put it in his drawer, and looked at him seriously. “You’ve decided? No regrets?”

Lin Yifei met his gaze firmly. “Sir, I will never regret it.”

Commander Zhang waved his hand. “Alright. Go back first. I’ll keep an eye on this matter.”

After thanking him, Lin Yifei left the office.

He looked up at the glaring sunlight. A tear flashed in his eyes.

He was almost free.
