I'm reborn, so it's not too much to kill the one who traveled through the book, right?

Gu Zhaoming really didn't want to go back to Taohua Village.

He was in mourning for three years. After three years, he made use of his former relationships with his classmates and made some arrangements. Even if he didn't rely on the Yiyong Marquis's mansion, he would have a good chance of getting a job.

But if he returned to Taohua Village, his career would be completely ruined.

"My dear son-in-law, now that you and Yuan'er have come to this point, you two can no longer go on together. It would be better for you two to part ways amicably.

In the end, it is my Chen family that has let you down. Don't worry, although you two have divorced, my Chen family will never treat you unfairly.

However, I have a request. I need you to return home to observe the mourning period for a few years. After the mourning period is over, I will arrange an official position for you. What do you think?"

Chen Jian looked at the young man in front of him. Although he had a smile on his face, he was actually not in a good mood.

The Chen family lost this help, which was a loss for the Chen family. Moreover, his request also had the intention of using his power to pressure others.

There was no other way. To put it bluntly, the Chen family had already offended Gu Zhaoming for the murder of his mother. In order to avoid being retaliated by Gu Zhaoming in the future, he could only suppress him while Gu Zhaoming was weak.

He now promised to arrange an official position for Gu Zhaoming in three years, but he was just thinking of giving him the position of a county magistrate in a remote area by then.

Gu Zhaoming had also been in the officialdom for a few years, so how could he not see Chen Jian’s plan?

But now he is weak, and even if he doesn't want to, he can't refuse openly. After all, the other person is still in his house. If he turns against him completely, the other person will poison him and kill him suddenly, which would be a waste of time and effort.

What's more, he couldn't refuse when people asked him to carry the coffin back home.

If you refuse, it would be unfilial!

After all, nowadays people believe in returning to their hometown after death, and it is normal to carry the coffin back to the hometown.

"Everything will be arranged by my father-in-law." Gu Zhaoming lowered his head which had been held high.

A satisfied smile flashed across Chen Jian's face. "In that case, you can write the divorce letter here. As for my daughter's dowry, it will be left in the Gu family as compensation."

"Thank you, father-in-law." Gu Zhaoming bowed.

Gu Zhaoming thought very clearly that power and fame were real only as long as one was alive. If one lost his life, everything would be gone.

Therefore, he calmly wrote the divorce letter with his own hands and accepted the compensation mentioned by the Chen family.

The concubine who destroyed her mistress and her husband was caught. Nanny Wu didn't trust her subordinates to do the job, so she had to go there herself to bring people.

Originally, Qu Lian didn't know that the Chen family had sent people to capture her, but when she was halfway there, she found that she had left something behind, so she hurried back.

This time when she returned, she happened to meet the servants of the Chen family who were asking the neighbors next door about her.

Nanny Wu asked the servants to capture Qu Lian, but they didn't find her. She was unwilling to give up and went there in person.

Seeing that there was no one at the Gu family, he went out and asked the neighbors next door about Qu Lian.

"Sister, have you seen where my brother-in-law's concubine has gone?" Madam Wu stuffed a bag of snacks into the hand of a woman next door and said with a sad face.

The people living nearby were not wealthy to begin with, so when Nanny Wu took out a bag of snacks, she managed to pry the other person open his mouth.

"Ah! What has happened to that young lady? She is not at home?"

Nanny Wu had a worried look on her face. "Alas! Didn't she commit a crime? That concubine is restless and has seduced the husband to favor the concubine over his wife. My young lady and her husband are about to divorce because of that shameless concubine! My master asked me to come and ask the concubine what's going on."

"This concubine is really, tsk tsk tsk... But I really didn't see any little girl coming out of the Gu family."

Turning back to look for the things she dropped, Qu Lian, who was hiding in the corner, became very angry after hearing what Chen's wife said.

That bitch Chen Yuan, if she hadn't tipped off, Chen Yuan would have become a dead body by now.

Now that the two of them can't get along, they put all the blame on her.

It’s so deceiving!

Don't think she doesn't know that Gu Zhaoming killed his wife because Chen Yuan must have done something that Gu Zhaoming could not tolerate.

Neither of them is a good person, so why put the blame on her?

I should not have saved Chen Yuan earlier. It was like saving a poisonous snake, and now it is bitten back.

Qu Lian knew very well that the Chen family would know about her, and that they were accusing her of this because Chen Yuan was fanning the flames.

It's impossible for Gu Zhaoming to go to Yue's house and tell people how he favored his concubine and neglected his wife, right?

The more Qu Lian thought about it, the more she regretted it. If she hadn't saved that bitch, she wouldn't have been so angry, but she was too soft-hearted and ended up hurting herself.

If Qu Lian had known that Chen Yuan would try to get close to her after returning to her parents' home, she would never have tipped her off!

This matter will never be let go like this! Qu Lian thought to herself.

Qu Lian didn't dare to show up again and could only quietly leave the alley.

After Qu Lian left the alley, she felt more and more unwilling. She thought for a moment and then came up with an idea.

Here, Gu Zhaoming signed the divorce letter he had just written and put his fingerprints on, and then was asked to go back.

After Chen Yuan received the divorce letter, he was extremely happy.

She finally got rid of Gu Zhaoming's help!

When Chen Yuan thought that he would no longer have to squeeze into the Gu family's small courtyard, his mood immediately improved a lot, and his body recovered faster as well.

Gu Zhaoming could not empathize with Chen Yuan's happiness. When he came out of Chen's house and returned to Gu's courtyard, he was greeted by an empty yard.

All the servants in the house followed Chen Yuan back to the Yiyong Earl's Mansion.

At this time, the yard was quiet, without a trace of smoke.

The smell of food wafted from the yards of the nearby houses, but at the Gu family's house, there was still no one around, not a single soul in sight.

"Lian'er?" Gu Zhaoming pushed open the ear room where Qu Lian lived, only to see that it was empty, without a single person in sight.

Gu Zhaoming didn't know that he was taken away by the Chen family after being knocked unconscious by Qu Lian.

He thought that the people who knocked him out and took him away were all members of the Chen family, and he did not doubt at all that Qu Lian knocked him out and then ran away.

He didn't know that the Chen family had come to look for Qu Lian, and he didn't know that Qu Lian had already taken away all the valuables in the house.

Gu Zhaoming searched the house but still couldn't find Qu Lian.

Thinking of Chen Yuan's personality, he thought Qu Lian was captured by the Chen family.

He thought Qu Lian was killed by the Chen family. He felt sorry for a while and then went on to do other things.

In the mind of Gu Zhaoming, who has witnessed the powerful people in the capital, no matter how beautiful a woman is, she is not as important as his future.

It was not until Gu Zhaoming discovered that all the valuable things in the house were gone and Qu Lian had not shown up that he realized there was something unusual about Qu Lian's disappearance.

Even if the Chen family arrests someone, they can’t steal all the valuable things in the house, right?

Could it be that someone stole it while no one was at home?

Or is it a thief?

Unfortunately, when Gu Zhaoming discovered it, it was too late.

However, Gu Zhaoming only thought that Qu Lian was caught and never thought that Qu Lian ran away on her own.

Qu Lian came to Shen Rong's rouge workshop that afternoon.
