After staying on the island for a week, the group departed to return to Beijing.

Other than An Yang and Hu Jiaojiao, everyone else returned to the Jian family’s Beijing Residence. They wanted to tell Grandma Jian and Grandpa Jian that everything was okay.

“Ahh Yiling, you guys are finally back home,” Grandma Jian said. The expression on her face was a little complicated.

Jian Yiling looked at Grandma Jian in confusion.

“Your aunt and uncle got a divorce,” Grandma Jian said to Jian Yiling. She told everything that happened to the Wen family in the past two days to her granddaughter. “Your aunt took the initiative to ask for a divorce.”

“Why?” Jian Yiling asked with a puzzled expression on her face.

Grandma Jian sighed before she said: “Your uncle cheated on your aunt. He slept with another woman. In addition, he ran into business problems. He was on the verge of bankruptcy and was almost about to go into debt. And thus, your aunt asked for a divorce.”

“My uncle said yes?”

“Yeah, he said yes. Your uncle felt that he was in the wrong. Furthermore, as he was soon to be in debt, he did not want to drag his wife and daughter into the situation. He didn’t even compete for custody of his daughter. The two of them divorced at a lightning speed. There was no delay.”

“What happened to my uncle’s business?”

Wen Cheng’s business was always doing well. Why was there suddenly a problem?

“I’m not sure about this either. It seems as though your uncle ran into a lot of bad luck in the past week. All his businesses faced problems. This directly led him to the verge of bankruptcy. He was even ready to sell his house. Your mother and father made several trips to the Wen family for this.”

“However, after your uncle and aunt got a divorce, in the past two days, his business miraculously began to recover. Those who planned to cancel contracts with Wen Cheng’s business suddenly decided not to. In fact, he appears to be already making a profit.”

The whole situation was indeed rather bizarre. However, it appeared as though no one was intentionally orchestrating this.

After all, if someone was intentionally orchestrating this, what did they want to achieve?

Furthermore, everything happened way too quickly. In the week Jian Yiling spent at Lahaisen Hospital, the Wen family had undergone such a huge change.

Later in the evening, Jian Shuxing and Wen Nuan brought Jian Yiling over to the Wen Residence.

Because of the divorce, Grandma Wen and Grandpa Wen suffered a great blow. Grandpa Wen’s health was already poor. After this incident, he appeared to look even more haggard than usual.

And thus, Wen Nuan visited her parents as often as possible. Today, she brought Jian Yiling over as well to provide her parents some comfort.

When they arrived at the Wen family, the place was much quieter than usual.

Cai Qinyue and Wen Ruo were no longer there.

Grandma Wen and Grandpa Wen were upset that their granddaughter was no longer staying with them.

When Grandma Wen saw Jian Yiling, she immediately hugged her: “Yiling… We only have you now…”

Jian Yiling did not feel comfortable in Grandma Wen’s embrace. However, she did not push her away.

After hugging her for a while, Grandma Wen pulled Jian Yiling to sit down beside her.

Wen Nuan: “Mother, what’s going on with my brother’s business? Is the crisis over for now?”

Grandma Wen was confused as well: “I also wonder about this. After the divorce, all the things that weren’t going well immediately resolved themselves.”

Grandpa Wen sighed before he said: “Maybe this is fate! Maybe Cai Qinyue is destined to not be our daughter-in-law!”

Grandma Wen: “Old man! Don’t say that.. She’s been our daughter-in-law for so many years. Furthermore, Wen Ruo is still our granddaughter… If it weren’t for the recent events…”
