Peace Year After Year

It was our fifth anniversary, and one month before Yun Ping and I were supposed to get married.

The woman he loved from afar came back.

Then I was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer. The doctor said I wouldn’t live to see the New Year.

The breakfast I brought him was thrown into the trash by his beloved.

When I found out I was pregnant, he was away on a business trip with her in the very city we’d once planned to visit together.

When I was bedridden, he dressed up and attended the company’s annual gala with her, looking like a perfect couple.

But after I died, he went mad.
