Chapter 197 -197: Meng Meng Overturned!
Wang Chunmei was sent back to the local police station in Fuxian.
With Lu Xining’s help, the successfully resuscitated village chief had awakened and, sitting in a wheelchair, went to testify for Lu Xining, affirming that the land on which she built the house was legally Grandma Lu’s, with all the proper procedures in place.
Wang Chunmei, who had married into Yunqiao Village later, was not aware of these matters, but her husband, being a local of Yunqiao Village, had always known about it. Yet he never wished to remind her, leaving Wang Chunmei dumbfounded for a long time upon learning the truth.
Her husband and son were also arrested for illegal hunting and were facing at least a decade in prison, and Wang Chunmei herself got locked up for six months for malicious defamation.
Having received the outcome of the case, Lu Xining was on her way to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register her marriage with Ming Yuan, with Little Dumpling nestled in her godmother’s lap watching an animated film.
When they arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, Su Ting had not yet shown up.
He only arrived five minutes before the scheduled time, making a late appearance.
Ming Yuan was even more beautifully dressed today than on her wedding day, as if she was preparing for a joyous occasion.
This displeased Su Ting, who with a cold face said, “Ming Yuan, are you really sure about this?”
“Divorce is a serious matter, not something you can be capricious about. If we really get divorced, I will never remarry you.”
As he spoke these words, Su Ting was subtly pressuring Ming Yuan.
Even now, at the Civil Affairs Bureau, he was in no rush.
Because he simply didn’t believe what Ming Yuan had said; a girl who had loved him for over ten years couldn’t possibly let go of him that easily.
In his mind, divorce was merely a ploy for seeking attention.
Lu Xining, holding her daughter, got out of the car and rolled her eyes at Su Ting’s words.
“If Mr. Su had lived in ancient times, he would have had an even more remarkable career.”
“After all, your thick skin is even tougher than city walls, completely impenetrable – perfect for defending against foreign enemies.”
Even the over-one-year-old Lu Nuonuo didn’t like Su Ting, just based on his attitude when speaking to Ming Yuan.
She looked at Su Ting with a smile, “Uncle has thick skin, so great~”
Our Little Dumpling was quite skilled at mocking.
Seeing Ji Muye, who came out of the car a bit later, Lu Nuonuo immediately remembered the words her uncle had taught her yesterday.
One takes on the color of one’s company.
She pursed her lips, treating them equally, “Uncle’s dark.”
Ji Muye, who had just gotten out of the car: “???”
Su Ting really disliked Lu Xining’s mouth; every time she spoke, the words were unpleasant. However, as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Ming Yuan, who seemed disgusted.
“Su Ting, don’t waste time. Let’s sign quickly and get this done.”
The specifics of the divorce agreement had already been drawn up by a lawyer.
Since they had only recently received their marriage certificate and neither was short on money, Ming Yuan saw no need for division of property.
Su Ting clenched his teeth, “Ming Yuan, don’t regret this.”
Ming Yuan nodded, “Yeah, whoever regrets it is a dog, doomed to lifelong poverty.”
Everyone knew that the young Miss Ming was a hedonist; being without money was a fate worse than death for her.
Ming Yuan and Su Ting went in to sign the divorce agreement.
Lu Xining, just about to carry her daughter inside as well, heard Little Dumpling say she wanted to wait in the car for them to come out.
With a driver and bodyguard present, the child’s safety was assured.
So, Lu Xining agreed.
She instructed her child, “Then you be good and wait here in the car for mommy, okay?”
Lu Nuonuo obediently nodded, “Okay.”
After they all went in, she popped her head out of the rear car window and saw Ji Muye, who had also not gone inside.
He leaned slightly on bent legs against the car door, looking up at the sign of the Civil Affairs Bureau.
It was in the same place, two years earlier.
It was here that he and Lu Xining had ended things.
Lu Nuonuo saw the flower shop and milk tea shop outside the Civil Affairs Bureau and set her sparkling eyes on the daydreaming Ji Muye.
She waved at him, “Uncle, hold.”
Hearing Little Dumpling’s soft voice pulled Ji Muye out of his thoughts, and seeing her half out the car window, he quickly went over to pick her up out of the car.
His deep voice was filled with concern: “That was very dangerous, did you know that?”
“Which channel is it on?” The little fellow had been following an animated series recently and was mimicking the tones of the little fox in the show.
She wasn’t the least bit upset by the coldness in his voice, as she found a comfortable position in his arms.
One hand was wrapped around Ji Muye’s neck, the other pointing towards a flower shop and a milk tea shop not too far away.
Lu Nuonuo: “Let’s go there.”

First, she went to the milk tea shop and ordered two cups of their signature milk teas, then went next door to buy two bouquets of flowers.
Ji Muye could tell at a glance what Little Dumpling had bought those for and was about to pay when a little hand stopped him.
Lu Nuonuo proudly showed off her children’s watch on her wrist, declaring, “Nuonuo has money!”
Meanwhile, Jing Zheng, who was watching cartoons in the Lu Family living room, felt his phone vibrate twice on the couch.
He had just connected his own payment code to Little Dumpling’s new children’s watch yesterday, and today he received two charges. Jing Zheng was quite pleased with this.
Girls should be pampered as they grow up, after all.
On the other side, after paying, Lu Nuonuo sweetly said to the florist, “The flowers need to be as pretty as Auntie.”
The florist was so charmed by her that she added lots of extra flowers to the original bouquets, packing two especially large and fresh bouquets.
Lu Nuonuo did want to carry them with her own hands, but upon seeing the height of the bouquets and comparing it with her own height,
She hesitated only momentarily before turning her head to look at Ji Muye with a sweet, curved smile and said, “Uncle is awesome~”
Ji Muye’s lips twitched slightly.
This Little Dumpling… When speaking on behalf of her dry mother, she would call him “Uncle Dark,” and now that she needed help, it was “Uncle is good.” Her mind was indeed nimble.
With the flowers in tow, Lu Nuonuo grabbed the milk teas from next door, hopping and skipping happily towards the Civil Affairs Bureau.
She didn’t see a small stone on the road, and as she stumbled forward, she instinctively cried out, “Uncle——”
Her collar was caught by someone and, the next second, she was in the man’s arms.
Ji Muye furrowed his brow as if to scold her when Little Dumpling pursed her lips with an expression that said, “If you scold me, I’ll cry.”
The man reluctantly swallowed his words back down: Alright, he was dealing with a little ancestor in his arms.
Inside the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Ming Yuan and Su Ting’s procedures went smoothly, and the divorce process was very straightforward.
The staff reminded them, “After the one-month cooling-off period is over, come back to receive your divorce certificate. If either party changes their minds about the divorce during this period, the divorce application can be withdrawn at any time.”
Upon hearing this, Su Ting looked at Ming Yuan sitting beside him, expecting to see a look of regret on her face, but there was none.
Ming Yuan had happily gone off to find Lu Xining, who was waiting in the rest area, to discuss where to have a delicious lunch. Every word and action was filled with joy.
Lu Xining had been observing the couples coming for a divorce—some to sign the divorce agreement, others to receive their divorce certificates after the cooling-off period.
Some were joyful, some sad, some angry, some relieved, and some even came with new partners, witnessing all the vicissitudes of marriage.
Such anger was now also evident on Su Ting’s face as she walked out with her friend, speaking as they left.
“Let’s go; I’ve already asked the chef at home to prepare your favorite dishes.”
“Yeah, let’s go, I’m definitely going to have a good meal today…”
The two had just walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau’s main entrance.
Lu Nuonuo came out hopping and skipping, holding two cups of milk tea, and handed them over like prized treasures.
“Mommy one cup, and dry mommy one cup.”
Ming Yuan hugged her tightly, showering her with kisses: “Oh my, my sweet little cotton-padded jacket, dry mommy really loves you to death!”
Lu Xining glanced at Ji Muye, who was carrying two bouquets of flowers with a dark expression at the bottom of the steps; it felt so out of place.
Little Dumpling, having been kissed several times by her dry mommy, came out of Ming Yuan’s embrace and pointed at the flowers in Ji Muye’s arms, saying, “Nuonuo bought them~”
Upon seeing Ji Muye’s helpless yet somber expression towards Little Dumpling, Ming Yuan laughed and took the flowers from his arms, “Thanks for the trouble, President Ji.”
Ji Muye: “You’re welcome.”
Lu Nuonuo took the initiative to pass the other bouquet to Lu Xining, saying, “Mommy has one too~”
Lu Xining and Ming Yuan shared a smile and took Little Dumpling’s hand as they headed back to the car.
Su Ting, who came out a step late from the Civil Affairs Bureau, saw his friend giving flowers to Ming Yuan and said incredulously, “Just whose brother are you? I’m here for a divorce, and you’re giving Ming Yuan flowers?”
Ji Muye glanced at him, uttering three words indifferently: “You had it coming.”
Su Ting: “???”
