To force me to divorce her so she could marry her childhood sweetheart, my billionaire wife locked me in a dog cage just after I donated a kidney to her and left me in the wilderness for seven whole days.
Three vicious dogs came at me with bloodshot eyes. They tore into my arm until it was drenched in blood, and I begged her to let me out.
But her voice was cold and resolute as she said:
“If you hadn't clung to me, why would A Yuan have willingly stepped aside? You still weren't satisfied. You kept targeting and bullying him. All of this should have been his!”
Seven days later, she opened the cage and looked down at me. “Have you made up your mind?”
She thought I'd cry and make a scene like before, but instead I nodded numbly, covered in blood from the waist up.
“I'll move out as soon as I can.”
Li Shengxue froze. It took her a long while to speak, and her voice held a rare touch of gentleness:
“You don't have to do this. After A Yuan and I get married, you can still live in the villa. You gave me a kidney, so I'll take care of you for the rest of your life. Things can stay just as they were.”
She didn't know that on the first day the dogs attacked me, my surgical wound had burst open, and blood had stained the cage red.
I spent the last of my lifeblood and struck a deal with the Gu King. In three days, I would return to Miaojiang.
From then on, I would sever all ties and forget every attachment, never again having anything to do with the world of mortals.
