Chapter 1 - Let’s Divorce

 "Oh god, is that Ji Liunian? He's more handsome in person than in the picture on the newspapers!"

 

 "That's Dr. Xu's husband! I envy her."

 

 "That's right! It's difficult to get a man who's handsome and capable. Dr. Xu is very blessed!"

 

The minute Xu Zhiyin walked out of the emergency ward, she took off her surgical mask and heard a few nurses whispering to one another.

 

Since she started work at the hospital, all everyone cared about wasn't her working ability but rather her husband, Ji Liunian.

 

Being a fuerdai who was active in front of the media, whatever related to Ji Liunian would be a public focus.

 

Since she married Ji Liunian, her life had constantly been paid close attention to. Everyone wanted to peep on her to know how the life of a rich young mistress of the house would be.

 

That moment, Ji Liunian was standing by the window.

 

He was very tall. Every time Xu Zhiyin looked at him, it was as if she was looking up to this man.

 

 "Why are you here?" Xu Zhiyin walked over and awoke the man who was in a trance with her voice.

 

He knew he was eye-catching and still appeared at this place. He was inviting envy. 

 

 "Have you just finished your surgery?" Ji Liunian looked at her. "You must be tired."

 

 "I'm fine." A glance at him had made her accumulated exhaustion disappear.

 

She didn't expect Ji Liunian to come to the hospital personally to visit her. She remembered the last time he came was when his mother was admitted and he was here to visit.

 

Xu Zhiyin said, "You can call me directly if there's anything. Why take the trouble to come here personally?"

 

Ji Liunian smiled. "I have something to tell you personally."

 

Both of them were workaholics. Although they were husband and wife, they had little time to see one another throughout the year and would usually contact one another through phone.

 

Xu Zhiyin saw his serious face and was overwhelmed. "Is there something important that you came to look for me?"

 

Ji Liunian stared at Xu Zhiyin and was silent for a while, as if hesitating.

 

Xu Zhiyin felt her heart thumping fast. Him standing there was enough to cause her heart race. She could not deceive herself that she loved this man…

 

Ji Liunian finally made up his mind to tell her, "Zhiyin, let's…divorce!"

 

Xu Zhiyin's heart skipped a beat. "Wh…why?"

 

A sense of guilt flashed through Ji Liunian's eyes. "Chu Xia is back. I'm sorry. It has been three years but I realize I still can't forget her."

 

 "…" this news came too suddenly and Xu Zhiyin couldn't respond.

 

She felt every cell in her body solidifying and didn't know how to react.

 

Ji Liunian didn't want to hurt her on purpose. "I'm sorry. Don't worry, after the divorce, you can still look for me if you need my help."

 

 "Alright." After a long silence, Xu Zhiyin finally nodded her head.

 

The marriage between her and Ji Liunian was a deal. It was a fake marriage where no love was involved, at least Ji Liunian had no feelings for her.

 

He had decided to marry her because his family was forcing him to get married. She, on the other hand, married him to help her family overcome their financial crisis.

 

The outcome of this marriage had been predicted from the beginning but the memory of these three years was unforgettable for Xu Zhiyin.

 

Ji Liunian was a very good lover and husband. Since their wedding day, Xu Zhiyin had been well taken care of by him. Even if there was no love between them, in everyone's eyes, both of them were a loving couple. Before she married Ji Liunian, she had liked this man.

 

She liked Ji Liunian since young but both of them were not very close. Ji Liunian liked her cousin, Chu Xia, more.

 

Three years ago, Chu Xia had eloped with her lover to another country and that gave her the opportunity to marry Ji Liunian. She naïvely thought that Ji Liunian would forget Chu Xia who had betrayed him but never had she expected him to say he couldn't forget Chu Xia.

 

Since they were both free in the afternoon, Xu Zhiyin and Ji Liunian went to apply for a divorce.

 

 "Are you going back to the hospital? Can I send you back?" After getting the divorce certificate, Ji Liunian asked her thoughtfully.

 

This felt as if they had not divorced. However, with the divorce certificate in her hand, Xu Zhiyin felt breathless trying to hold back her sadness.

 

She declined Ji Liunian's suggestion. "It's not necessary. I wish to take a stroll. I wish you and Sis Chu Xia great happiness."

 

Ji Liunian stared at her but did not utter a single word. Xu Zhiyin swiftly dashed away from his vision. She kept walking until she came to a corner and when she made sure Ji Liunian could not see her, her tears gushed from her eyes.

 

She wanted herself not to suffer pain but now that they were truly divorced, it still hurt.

 

Even though they had been married for three years, she had never dared to let this man know she loved him. She understood that even if he knew, she would not get more from him.

 

His heart belonged to Chu Xia, not her.

 

Xu Zhiyin had never been helter-skelter like this before. She squatted beside the road like a homeless child.

 

The loss of Ji Liunian made her heart ache and she couldn't breathe.

 

The scorching sun shined on her but she couldn't feel the warmth. Instead, she felt a sense of coldness, rushing into her bones.

 

 "She's here, I've found her!" Two luxurious black cars stopped beside the road. A group of men wearing suits and sunglasses who looked like bodyguards of the gangsters walked toward Xu Zhiyin and before she could react, dragged her very quickly up the car.

 

All these happened too quickly and Xu Zhiyin couldn't follow the rhythm.

 

 "Who are you? Where are you bringing me?" She struggled a little and felt nervous as she was blindfolded and couldn't see the current situation clearly.

 

Why was heaven treating her in this manner?

 

She had just lost her husband and crossed in love and her heart was in extreme pain. Why was she kidnapped at this moment?
