On my wedding day, my fiance was caught in the act with my younger sister, Gu Lan, in the lounge.
I became the joke of the whole room, but my childhood friend, Lu Jingchuan, proposed to me in front of everyone and boldly stood up for me.
After we married, he catered to my every whim.
Unfortunately, he was impotent, and our sex life was never satisfactory.
It wasn't until I underwent IVF this year that I finally became pregnant.
After that, he took even more tender care of me.
I thought he was the one I was meant to spend my life with.
Until one day, I overheard him talking with a friend.
"A-Chuan, you're really ruthless. Gu Ning treats you so well. How could you switch the eggs and make her carry a baby for Gu Lan, just because Gu Lan is afraid of the pain and doesn't dare give birth?"
"Besides, the baby is due in two months. What are you going to do then?"
He was silent for a moment, then sighed.
"After the baby is born, I'll give it to A-Lan and fulfill her wish."
"As for Gu Ning, I'll tell her the baby didn't make it."
"I'll spend the rest of my life with her."
So that's how it was.
All the gentle care I thought was for me had been for her.
I turned around and booked an appointment for surgery.
I didn't want this filthy child.
And I wanted this sham marriage even less.
