Bad luck would descend on people who had everything they wanted.
Yan Xi was deeply touched by this saying.
It was her first time attending a top-notch medical summit on her own. After sleeping for a while, she woke up to find that her hand was uncontrollably stabbing her chest with a knife.
The sudden pain caused her vision to darken, and her already muddled thoughts started to drift away.
In dizziness, she heard the man gritting his teeth. "Yan Xi! Do you like Zhang Ming that much?!"
Yan Xi thought to herself that the man's voice was actually quite nice.
β¦
When Yan Xi opened her eyes again, her wound had already been bandaged, but it still hurt.
She hissed, her confused gaze sweeping the room before settling on the man beside the bed.
The man was sitting in a wheelchair. He was handsome and had deep facial features. His pair of peach blossom eyes looked calmly at Yan Xi without any emotions.
There was actually such a handsome person in the world. Yan Xi was stunned and subconsciously called out, "Hubby."
The man frowned slightly, his eyes watery. He pushed a document towards Yan Xi and said in a low and cold voice, "This is the divorce agreement. I've already signed it."
He paused for a moment before adding, "As for Zhang Ming, I will no longer hold him responsible."
Wow, divorce at the start.
As Yan Xi thought to herself, a memory that did not belong to her was forcefully squeezed into her mind. She widened her eyes, and everything that seemed abnormal now made perfect sense.
She entered a book that her best friend strongly recommended and became an infamous female supporting character who had an affair with her Ex.
The man in front of her was the male supporting actor, Gu Shen, and the elder brother of the female lead, Gu Yuan. At the age of 26, he had stabilized his business empire. His only flaw was that he was permanently disabled and could only move in a wheelchair.
Although Gu She was handsome, rich, domineering, and affectionate, for some reason, girls in this book never fell in love with him, perhaps because of his disability. Eventually, they made the Host, an illegitimate daughter of the Yan family, marry him.
Resentful at being made to marry Gu Shen, the Host started to retaliate by making out with her Ex, deliberately cheating on him. Yan Xi was angry while she was reading the book, but now she was even angrier when she thought about it. She thought those people really had bad taste. If she were to choose, she would've definitely chosen to marry Gu Shen as he was her ideal type.
The current storyline was that the Host was busted while secretly meeting with her Ex. Zhang Ming flew into a rage out of humiliation and stabbed Gu Shen's assistant. In order to get Gu Shen to drop the charges against Zhang Ming, the Host threatened him by stabbing herself with a knife.
It was no wonder she was getting a divorce.
Seeing that Yan Xi was distracted, Gu Shen spoke again, "The assets in the marriage have been divided. This money is enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life."
"Wait!" Yan Xi quickly sat up. The wound caused her to gasp, but her eyes were sparkling. "Hubby, I'm not getting a divorce!"
Gu Shen frowned and guessed according to what he knew about her. "Not enough money?"
"It's not about the money. I don't want to divorce you. You don't have to withdraw the charges against Zhang Ming. If he did something wrong, he should be punished by the law."
Gu Shen's brows twitched and his cold gaze landed on Yan Xi.
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
"I know." Yan Xi's tone was serious. "I'm not getting a divorce."
The person who used a knife to force him to divorce and withdraw the charges suddenly became different.
Did she really not want a divorce, or was it a new trick?
Gu Shen sneered, looking at Yan Xi. "Then why did you stab yourself?"
