At that time, a junior high school graduation certificate still had some value. Teacher Song promised Yi Anguo's father that when Yi Anguo graduated from third year, he would give him a junior high school diploma.

Later, Yi Anguo's father wanted to ask the head teachers of other classes to transfer Yi Anguo to another class to continue his studies.

But the head teachers of other classes didn't dare to accept him upon hearing he was a student that Teacher Song didn't want, fearing retaliation from Teacher Song.

Teacher Song was very jealous. Once he decided to give up a student, other teachers wouldn't dare to take them, or they would face his wrath.

Teacher Song himself wasn't feared, but no teacher wanted to offend Teacher Song's father-in-law! After all, he's the retired veteran principal of the school!

Even if the veteran principal had retired, his influence remained. No teacher wanted to offend the son-in-law of the veteran principal over a student with poor grades.

Ultimately, with no other choice, Yi Anguo had to drop out of school.

Even after leaving school and struggling in society for several years, Yi Anguo couldn't suppress the grievance in his heart. Whenever he thought of Teacher Song's actions towards him, he felt such hatred he wished he could go to school and stab him.

Encountering Teacher Song ruined his life; how could Yi Anguo not hate him?

As time went by, Yi Anguo gradually let it go; there was no point risking his life. Even if he really killed Teacher Song, he couldn't escape his fate!

However, today, Teacher Song's appearance reignited the anger in his heart, making him unwilling to show him any kindness.

Thus, Yi Anguo found ways to force Principal Shen to fire Teacher Song using donations, donating a building, and donating a library.

Even if Principal Shen didn't agree, Yi Anguo had his own ways to deal with Teacher Song.

Teacher Song is now an assistant principal, a significant role thanks to his influential father-in-law.

Knowing Teacher Song's greedy and lustful nature, Yi Anguo really doesn't believe that after becoming assistant principal, he wouldn't commit any errors.

The reason Yi Anguo never considered donating to the town's high school was because it didn't leave him with many good memories during his time there.

In the evening, having held back for several days, Liu Yifei sneaked into Yi Anguo's presidential suite.

This surprised and delighted Yi Anguo, who originally planned to look for Yang Mi.

To avoid mishaps, Yi Anguo would always go to Yang Mi's room because he knew Liu Yifei might come to his room at any moment.

"Under your mother's watchful gaze, you dared to come find me! Did your mother allow you to come?" Yi Anguo said, holding Liu Yifei in his arms and smiling.

"I'm already an adult now; my mom wouldn't interfere with my dating freedom," Liu Yifei said proudly.

"Really? So I don't need to meet your mom?" Yi Anguo asked.

"Why? Are you afraid to meet my mom?" Liu Yifei asked curiously.

"Yes, yes! I've stolen her precious daughter away; she'll definitely want to settle the score with me, and of course I'm afraid of her," Yi Anguo nodded vigorously.

"Afraid of what? My mom is easy to talk to. As long as you aren't irresponsible toward me, meeting my mom won't lead to anything bad happening to you," Liu Yifei said with a smile.

Yi Anguo thought to himself, I do want to be responsible for you, but how? No matter how well I treat you or how much I love you, I can't marry you.

If I can't marry you, in your mother's eyes I'm being irresponsible, and she certainly won't let me off easy!

"What does your mom really want from me? Does she want us to announce that we're together?" Yi Anguo asked.

"Yes! What's wrong? Are you unwilling?" Liu Yifei nodded and said.

Yi Anguo thought, of course, I'm unwilling! If we announce our relationship, your mom will definitely pressure me to marry you. If I marry you, what about the other women in my life?

But in front of Liu Yifei, Yi Anguo couldn't say that.

"I'm not unwilling; I can't wait to announce our relationship so that all those other men will stop thinking about you," Yi Anguo said teasingly.

"But it's a crucial time for your development in the film industry. If we announce our relationship now, your fans will be so disappointed!

If they become disappointed, it will have a huge impact on your career. Their previous love for you will turn into resistance against you."

"I don't want being with me to have a detrimental impact on your career."

"It's okay. If my fans get unhappy and resist me just because I'm dating, then they weren't truly my fans or genuinely liked me," Liu Yifei said, shaking her head.

"Even though that's true, losing fan support will still significantly affect your career," Yi Anguo continued to persuade, unwilling to give up.

"My mom says the best thing for a woman is to marry a good husband, support her family, and be a good wife and mother. If one must choose between career and family, they should choose family; career is just additional decoration," Liu Yifei explained.

"Even if I don't have my own career later, can't you support me? Even if we have many children, with your capabilities, would there be any pressure?"

Liu Yifei's words left Yi Anguo dumbfounded; this was completely different from what he expected.

"Are you sure this is what your mom said? If she thought this way, she wouldn't have divorced your dad," Yi Anguo said, puzzled.

"Your mom divorced your dad because she chose her dance career, right?"

"If your mom had wanted to stay home and be a good wife and mother, with your dad's conditions and capabilities, it would be easy for them to have a great life."

"That's different. My mom and dad share deep feelings. They were drawn together by mutual love and got married out of genuine affection," Liu Yifei explained.

"My mom and dad divorced not because my mom stopped loving my dad or their relationship broke down."

"They divorced because my mom and grandmother couldn't get along; both were strong-willed and refused to compromise. My dad struggled in the middle; supporting my mom meant being unfilial, while siding with my grandmother hurt my mom's love for him."

"My mom didn't want my dad to constantly struggle because of her issues, affecting his work and career, so she chose to divorce him, 'better a short pain than a long suffering.'"

"It was a bit impulsive at the time. After the divorce, my mom took me to the United States."

"Initially, after the divorce, my mom held resentment towards my dad, which drove her impulsively to America."

"Years later, my mom gradually let go of her resentment towards my dad, but my dad had already formed a new family, and I gained a sister."

"My mom in America also established a new family, and my stepfather has been kind to me."

"Later on, when I returned to develop my career and got into the Beijing Film Academy, my dad often came to see me."

"Actually, after the divorce, my mom and dad didn't become enemies; she didn't prevent me from meeting my dad or visiting my grandparents' home."

"So, you mean your mom regrets divorcing your dad," Yi Anguo asked curiously.

"What good is regret? It's an unchangeable situation," Liu Yifei replied.

"But if my mom hadn't divorced my dad, I wouldn't have been able to continue dancing, enroll in the Film Academy, or act in films and TV dramas."

"Because my grandmother strongly opposed my mom dancing and teaching me to dance."
