   🌈🌈"Let's get a divorce!" "Okay!" After waking up, she didn't want to continue the entanglement and took the initiative to bring up divorce. Shen Yunhe was stunned for a moment, then agreed. 😳 After preparing the divorce report, the two went directly to the Civil Affairs Bureau to complete the divorce procedures. Soon, they came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau each with a divorce certificate. ✨ Jiang Banyue stroked her still-flat stomach, lost in thought. She was already carrying three babies, and this time, she wanted to give her three children a perfect ending. 🙄 As for the children's biological father, he could get as far away as possible. She would never let her three babies come into contact with the male and female protagonists! ❗ It was now 1986. She could go back to her original home in Chuan'an County and open a cake shop. She lived in the 22nd century and, because she loved sweet desserts, became a pastry chef when she grew up. Now, she could do her old job to earn money to support her children. Seeing her head down and not saying anything, Shen Yunhe felt bad too. He took out a savings book. "This is my savings over the years. I'm giving it all to you as compensation." Jiang Banyue paused for a moment, then quickly took the passbook. Why not take it? She still needed money to raise her baby and run her shop. Consider it child support from her child's father. Jiang Banyue turned and left without a second thought, holding the passbook. Shen Yunhe's clear voice came from behind her, "You still have some things in the family compound. When do you have time to come and get them?"
