“Shiyun! You don’t have to worry anymore! I managed to borrow the money that we need!” Aunt Mo cried out in excitement.
“Oh? Where did you get the money from?” There was excitement in Mo Shiyun’s voice. However, at the same time, there was an element of worry.
“Don’t worry about it. It’s not from a loan shark. I just… I just borrowed money from a friend.”
“For real?”
“Yeah, for real! Let’s just take this money and file a lawsuit against that bastard! I heard that if we win the lawsuit, the money will be refunded to us anyways. If that’s the case, this money can be saved for your college tuition. You don’t have to work so hard anymore!”
“Mhmm!” The overcast expression on Mo Shiyun’s face cleared away. “I’ll return the money when I get a job!”
Immediately after the conversation, Mo Shiyun contacted Qiu Yizhen. She had the money to solve the problem now.
With the money that her mother borrowed, all that she needed was a reliable lawyer. The lawyer could make sure that the divorce would go through smoothly.
The odds for the divorce to pass through were very high. As long as they could provide enough evidence that He Jianjun and Mo Huiqin had been living separately for several years, that would be sufficient for the court to order a divorce. On top of that, He Jianjun had never met his obligations of being a father.
Furthermore, He Jianjun didn’t have the money to hire a good lawyer.
After contacting Qiu Yizhen, Mo Shiyun looked at her contact list. Her eyes fell on Jian Yunnao’s name. After she paused for a moment, she clicked on his name.
She started to type out a message.
[The results of the chemistry competition just came out. Jian Yiling came first. I’m not sure whether it’s my place to say this, but I think that it isn’t good to pamper her too much. There’s a fine line between what’s right and wrong. Of course, I’m an outsider. Thus, I shouldn’t be saying much.]

Mo Shiyun and Jian Yunnao both knew what Jian Yiling’s grades in chemistry were like.
After waiting for quite some time, Mo Shiyun still didn’t receive a reply from Jian Yunnao.
However, Jian Yunnao had already read the message from Mo Shiyun.
If he were the person that he was a few months ago, he would have immediately believed Mo Shiyun.
However, after the lesson that he learned last time, he knew that he shouldn’t believe in Mo Shiyun’s words right away.
As of now, Jian Yunnao was in Jian Yuncheng’s study. Jian Yuncheng’s study was quite spacious. There was enough room for two desks.
Jian Yuncheng was wearing a black suit. The overall aura that he gave out was serious and solemn.
Jian Yunnao passed his phone over to Jian Yuncheng. Jian Yuncheng had been burying his head in his work.
Jian Yuncheng took a short glance at the contents of the conversation before he sneered. He looked up and asked Jian Yunnao: “So, what do you think she’s trying to say?”
Mo Shiyun’s message was a bit ambiguous. However, the phrase ‘It isn’t good to pamper her too much’ had quite some intent behind them.
Jian Yunnao lowered his head. He knew what Mo Shiyun was trying to say. However, he didn’t want to say it out loud.
After he was silent for quite some time, Jian Yunnao expressed his thoughts, “She’s trying to say that Yiling didn’t get first place in the chemistry competition based on her own skills. She’s implying that someone from the Jian family helped her behind the scenes. Namely, you or our parents.”
There was a bitter taste in his mouth. However, he finally expressed his thoughts.
“Then, I’ll tell you very clearly. I did not interfere with the chemistry competition. Nor did, our parents and grandparents. Do you believe in me or do you believe in her?”
“I believe in you.”
The choice was clear for Jian Yunnao. It was an easy decision to decide between Mo Shiyun, who had already lost his trust, and his eldest brother, Jian Yuncheng.
However, at the moment he made his choice, his heart still ached.
The reason for this was because the image he had of Mo Shiyun had been completely shattered. She was no longer the perfect person that he had imagined her to be.
