Chapter 15

It was exactly that day-the scene of Hu Feier and Gu Yan making love in our baby’s room.

I pretended to panic and bent down as if to pick something up.

As expected, Liang Chen stopped me, bent over himself, and picked up the phone from the floor.

The video just happened to pause at the moment when Gu Yan asked, “Why haven’t you dumped that little boyfriend of yours?”

Hu Feier replied, “He’s still useful.” Right there.

Of course, I had edited the video, cutting out the part that followed.

After the video stopped, Liang Chen’s face visibly flushed red.

I knew that was a sign of anger.

At the right moment, I snatched the phone from his hand.

I squatted down, covered my face, and began to cry.

“I’m sorry… for letting you see this…”

“Actually, you were right… My marriage was never happy. Gu Yan started cheating on me with Hu Feier a long time ago…”

I hesitated, “They even drugged me with Chinese herbal medicine… brazenly did all this in our home…”

“Liang Chen, I really don’t know what to do. When I first found out, I even had thoughts of ending my own life. Your appearance… was like a ray of light in the darkness…”

The anger on Liang Chen’s face turned into heartache.

He pulled me into his arms, gently wiping away my tears.

After a brief pause, he spoke: “Shenshen, actually, I liked you from the very first time I met you.”

“I can feel it-you like me too, don’t you?”

“That bastard Gu Yan, he doesn’t deserve you at all, not worth you giving so much for him.”

“If you’re willing, let me take care of you, alright?”

I didn’t say anything.

He lowered his head, slowly approaching my lips.

Just as his lips were about to touch mine, I panicked and got up to avoid him.

With tears in my eyes, I left.
