    In the third year of her marriage to Shen Yuheng, their marriage certificate was accidentally ruined by being soaked in coffee. Nan Yu took the certificate to the Civil Affairs Bureau to reissue it. The staff member typed a few words on the computer, then suddenly looked up at her: "Madam, your marital status shows as unmarried." She was stunned, thinking she had misheard: "Impossible, my husband and I got our certificate here three years ago." The staff member checked again, her expression becoming somewhat strange: "The system shows that you are indeed unmarried, but Mr. Shen Yuheng is married..." She paused: "His spouse is registered as another woman named Qiao Qingyi. Do you know her?" Nan Yu's mind went blank, and all she could hear was a sharp ringing in her ears.
