Outside the community gate.
Chen Yihao stopped Chen Yinuo.
"Sister, can you calm down and listen to me for a few moments!"
"Sister, although Mom speaks without regard for others, her intentions are right!"
"With your conditions, even if it's a second marriage, you can find a partner a thousand, a thousand times better than that beast!"
"Think about how much suffering you've endured in his hands these past few years? For a beast like that, why aren't you divorcing him quickly, what are you waiting for!"
Chen Yinuo smoothed the ends of her hair that had been messed up by the wind.
Shaking her head, she said, "It's not that I don't want to leave, it's that he won't sign! He asked me to give him another month. After a month, if I still insist on leaving, he'll sign!"
"What a joke! A month? Give him a hundred more months, and he'll still be a dog that can't change its ways! He doesn't want to sign, does he? Sister, don't worry, leave this to me. I refuse to believe I can't handle him, I refuse to believe he won't sign!" Chen Yihao gritted his teeth.
However, when Chen Yinuo heard this, she immediately furrowed her brows.
She said, "What do you want to do? Let me tell you, no matter how much of a scoundrel or beast he is, you are not allowed to act recklessly, you are not allowed to do anything foolish! It's just one month, isn't it? I've endured for so long, this one month won't make a difference!"
"Sister!!!"
"Will you listen to me?"
Chen Yihao finally nodded, "Okay, one month, I'll give him one more month! If he still refuses to sign by then, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Chen Yinuo didn't reply further.
Pulling Ye Youyou, she waved down a taxi.
...
Half an hour later.
Chen Yinuo, whose body and mind were too exhausted to describe in words, returned to the rented apartment with Ye Youyou.
As soon as the door opened.
She subconsciously thought she had entered the wrong apartment.
In the completely new and orderly space.
To say it was spotless was a bit of an exaggeration.
But not even a single speck of trash could be seen anymore.
The cigarette butts and wine bottles that were scattered everywhere before were nowhere to be seen.
The dirty, stained floor tiles were sparkling clean.
Every corner was so clean and tidy.
The unpleasant stench was completely gone.
Replaced by a faint lemon scent left by air freshener!
This, this was cleaned by that beast?
How could that be!
"Mom, is this really our home? Did we go to the wrong door?"
Ye Youyou raised her head and looked at Chen Yinuo.
If it weren't for the familiar furniture, Chen Yinuo would also think she had entered the wrong door.
"We didn't go to the wrong door, Youyou, it's very, very late, Mom will take you to the room to sleep!"
Saying this, Chen Yinuo was about to take Ye Youyou into the room.
Of course, it wasn't the one Ye Chen slept in.
In this rented apartment, though small, it had two rooms and a living room.
She and Ye Chen had long been sleeping in separate rooms.
In fact, before going to bed every night in the past, she had to lock her door tightly.
Because Ye Chen, who returned late at night completely drunk, was truly terrifying, so terrifying that many times she wanted to die together with Ye Chen!
However, before she could take a step.
The door of the rented apartment was pushed open with a bang.
Ye Chen walked in.
"Papa!"
As soon as she saw Ye Chen.
The Xiao Yatou immediately lost all her sleepiness.
She excitedly rushed towards Ye Chen.
This time, Chen Yinuo merely frowned slightly but didn't stop Ye Youyou again.
After all, no matter what, Ye Chen was still her Father!
"Youyou, Papa will give you a hug!"
It wasn't just Ye Youyou who was excited.
There was also Ye Chen!
Sixty years, a full sixty years!
Throughout those past sixty years, he thought about his daughter constantly.
How many times did he wake up from a dream at night, always curled up, weeping and reminiscing about the past he regretted.
How much he wanted to hug Youyou again, how much he wanted to pinch Youyou's cute little face..
Now heaven had given him a chance to start over.
At this moment, as he picked up Ye Youyou, his eyes turned red and welled up!
Forcing himself not to shed tears.
Ye Chen forced a smile and said, "Youyou, didn't you go to Grandma's house with Mom? Why are you back?"
"Papa, Grandma and Grandpa are bad, they scolded Mom, and they scolded Youyou too, Mom even cried!"
Children don't understand much and blurted it out all at once.
This made Chen Yinuo unable to stop her even if she wanted to.
She could only become anxious, "Youyou, don't talk nonsense!"
It wasn't Chen Yinuo's fault for being anxious, but the past Ye Chen was truly difficult to deal with.
Every time he heard Ye Youyou say that Grandma and Grandpa had scolded her, he would threaten to kill her maternal relatives.
Although Ye Chen was just talking big, for someone like him, Chen Yinuo couldn't guarantee whether he would do something crazy when drunk.
"Did your Chen Yinuo's parents bully you and Youyou again?"
Holding Ye Youyou, Ye Chen raised an eyebrow.
"Besides you, no one would bully us two!" Chen Yinuo sneered.
"Don't rely on others anymore, the house we rented isn't without rooms!"
As for what kind of people his father-in-law and mother-in-law were, no one knew better than Ye Chen.
So even if Chen Yinuo didn't say anything, he knew how stifled Chen Yinuo and Youyou must have felt there.
"Let me correct you, this is the house I rented, not the house *we* rented! But don't worry, although I rented it, Youyou and I are just back to stay for one night, I'll take Youyou out tomorrow!" Chen Yinuo snorted.
If it weren't for the hotels being too expensive.
If it weren't for being unable to rent a room so late.
She really wouldn't have returned to this place again, even though she paid the rent here!
"Youyou doesn't want to go out, Youyou wants to be with Papa!"
Hearing Chen Yinuo's cold snort, Ye Youyou immediately shouted.
Then, scratching Ye Chen's slightly prickly beard, she said in a childish voice, "Papa, what did you do tonight, why are you only coming home now!"
"Papa went to sell flowers!"
Ignoring Chen Yinuo's sarcastic remarks, he knew that for Chen Yinuo to accept him again, it would take time, and it wasn't something that could change Chen Yinuo's opinion of him overnight.
However.
Chen Yinuo scoffed at his claim of selling flowers!
No one understood Ye Chen better than her!
He was a complete and utter Idealist who aimed high but had little capability!
To describe him as someone whose ambitions were higher than the sky but whose fate was thinner than paper was not an exaggeration at all!
How could someone like him lower himself to sell flowers?
Absolutely impossible!
Even though he had never been worthy of any status or pretense, even though he had been a loser from beginning to end!
But living in his Ideal world, he had never recognized himself, never!
"Ah, Papa, you went to sell flowers? Where are the flowers? Youyou loves flowers, Youyou wants some too!"
Ye Youyou, held in his arms and enjoying his paternal love, blinked her bright, watery eyes and said.
"There are no flowers left, Papa sold all the flowers!" Ye Chen said with a smile.
"All sold? Then didn't Papa earn a lot of little money?" Ye Youyou said.
"Yeah, Papa earned over two thousand eight hundred, almost three thousand yuan!"
Touching the Xiao Yatou's forehead with his own, Ye Chen said with a sense of fulfillment.
"Wow, three thousand yuan? Papa is so amazing!"
Perhaps Ye Youyou didn't know what the concept of three thousand yuan was.
But having often heard adults arguing about money since she was little, the word "thousand" undoubtedly meant a lot of money to her!
Little did she know that Chen Yinuo on the side could no longer bear to watch, could no longer bear to listen!
"Ye Chen, isn't your habit of lying enough when directed at me? Do you have to use it on Youyou too? Do you want Youyou to be like you, growing up to be someone full of lies and completely lacking self-awareness?"
After Chen Yinuo's cold scolding fell.
She shouted towards Ye Youyou, "Youyou, come down, go back to the room to sleep with Mom!"
