Mom, Dad is bleeding! Dad is bleeding!Little Ye Youyou, held tightly by Chen Yinuo, pointed at Ye Chen and cried out in her childish voice, "Dad, I want to go to Dad!"But Chen Yinuo remained unmoved, refusing to let her take another step forward."Youyou, be good, don't cry. Dad is fine!"Covering the wound on his head, Ye Chen looked at his daughter from a distance, speaking bitterly.Yet, he didn't approach them."Ye Chen, oh Ye Chen, I've always known you're worthless, but I never thought you'd stoop so low as to borrow from loan sharks! You sold our wedding ring, my work computer, and even the hairpin my grandmother left me! Look around! Look at what's left in this house that you haven't sold! Go on, take it all and sell it!"Staring at Ye Chen, whose face was smeared with blood and looked terrifying, Chen Yinuo sneered mockingly."Honey…""Don't call me honey! It makes me sick!" Chen Yinuo shouted, cutting him off. "I don't know what sin I committed in my past life to have believed in you and married you!"She didn't give Ye Chen the chance to say another word and continued yelling."Two hundred seventy thousand in loan shark debt. Two hundred seventy thousand! Ha! Keep going. If you have any shred of decency left in you, just sign this divorce agreement. I'm begging you! If this drags on any longer, you won't just ruin me; you'll ruin Youyou too!"As she spoke, Chen Yinuo pulled out a divorce agreement from her cheap market-bought handbag.In his previous life, Ye Chen had signed the divorce papers because he felt ashamed and powerless after witnessing someone harass Chen Yinuo, and he didn't dare to speak up.But in this life, heaven had given him a second chance. There was no way he would sign that divorce agreement again when his goal was to make amends."Yinuo… please, give me another chance. Just one last chance!" Ye Chen pleaded desperately."Another chance? One last chance? How many times have I heard that from you? Do you think I could still believe you?" Chen Yinuo sneered coldly. "If you don't sign, you'll just drag me and Youyou down with you!""Yinuo, I'll repay the 270,000 with interest in one week! From now on, I'll never gamble again, and I'll never do anything to let you down. Trust me, just this once, one last time!" Ye Chen begged."You're lying through your teeth now without even blushing, huh? 270,000 in a week? With what? More gambling? Hoping for an overnight windfall at the casino? Look at you! You're in such a miserable state that it's better for you to be dead than alive. Forget 270,000; you couldn't even scrape together 2,700! Enough! This is pointless. Just sign the papers!" Chen Yinuo snapped.Her heart had long since been shattered beyond repair by Ye Chen.She had forgiven him countless times, deceiving herself over and over.But every time, it only led to Ye Chen's increasingly brazen lies and betrayal."Disappointment" was far too mild a word to describe what Chen Yinuo felt for him.She knew that if this continued, she'd go insane—or worse, she'd die from the stress."Give me one month. If, in one month, you still can't see any change in me, and if you still feel the same way, I'll sign the divorce papers then."Ye Chen shook his head, his gaze firm."One month?"Chen Yinuo laughed, not out of joy, but because of how ridiculous she found his request.It wasn't that she looked down on Ye Chen; it was just that he was incapable of change. At most, he could keep up appearances for three days before reverting to his old self."Do you really think that's necessary?" she asked."Yes! Do it for Youyou. Please, just give me one month!" Ye Chen replied."One month, and after that, you'll agree to divorce, right?""If you still insist on it, then yes," Ye Chen said.Chen Yinuo exhaled a sarcastic breath, her face full of self-mockery. "Fine. What's one more month? But you better survive those loan sharks first!"With that, she turned around and dragged Ye Youyou toward the door."I don't want to go to Grandma's house! I want Dad! I want Dad!"Little Youyou cried out loudly, tears streaming down her cheeks.But Chen Yinuo was unmoved and forcibly took her away.Listening to his daughter's heart-wrenching cries and watching Chen Yinuo's retreating figure, Ye Chen felt like his heart was being torn apart.Still, he didn't try to stop them or take Youyou back.He wasn't in any condition to care for her now, and besides, he didn't feel worthy of keeping her with him.After watching them disappear from sight, Ye Chen left the messy rental apartment, clutching his injured head.Instead of going to the hospital, he found a nearby clinic.After getting stitches for the wound on his head and having the injuries on his face treated, he returned to the chaotic rental house."Sinful. Truly sinful."Looking at the empty liquor bottles, cigarette butts, and scattered takeout and instant noodle containers littering the floor, Ye Chen slapped himself hard across the face, ignoring the pain.Three hours later, after cleaning and mopping the entire house three times, the place was finally spotless.Sitting in the now tidy living room, Ye Chen lit a cheap cigarette from the table.He took out the only 178 yuan left in his pocket."I need to turn this 178 yuan into 270,000 within a week to get through this!"Exhaling a puff of harsh smoke, Ye Chen coughed a few times, unused to smoking after so many years, let alone such cheap cigarettes.Then, his brain kicked into overdrive, recalling and filtering through money-making ideas.For an ordinary person, turning 178 yuan into 270,000 in a week would be nothing short of a pipe dream.But Ye Chen was no ordinary person.Setting aside the fact that he had once amassed a fortune of 40 billion and topped the rich list, or that he had knowledge of the next 60 years as a reborn man—which he couldn't yet fully utilize—he had one undeniable advantage: his memories of the past.Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him.He glanced at the calendar on the wall: June 19th.In his previous life, tonight was the day the city center held its first mid-year light show.The event attracted countless young couples, drawn to the romantic atmosphere.During the first three nights, the show featured a surprise romantic theme centered on love.On the first night, no one anticipated this theme, so no one capitalized on it.By the second night, however, opportunistic flower vendors appeared.At the wholesale market, a rose that cost 1 yuan was sold for 5 yuan early in the evening and as much as 10 yuan later in the night.Ye Chen, who had gone to watch the light show at the time, had internally cursed the vendors for their greed.But in hindsight, it wasn't anger—it was envy. After all, they were making nine times the profit!That crazy profit margin, however, only lasted one night. By the third night, there were more flower sellers than spectators, and prices plummeted. Roses that were 10 yuan each the previous night dropped to 2 yuan, and by the end, they were being sold at cost to avoid spoilage.Recalling this, Ye Chen made up his mind.He glanced at the clock on the wall: 4 p.m.The light show started at 8 p.m., and the romantic theme would begin at 10 p.m.There wasn't much time left to prepare!
