Synopsis

On New Year’s Eve, Yan Shu and I held our engagement party. He walked into the hall holding the hand of his long-lost orphanage sister. When Fu Qingqian pretended to trip and shove me, Yan Shu’s livestream had just passed one million viewers. I hit the floor hard. A warm red stream soaked through my white dress. Fu Qingqian wore a mocking smile. “Big Sis, why didn’t you get ready ahead of time if your period was due?” Yan Shu had started to reach out to help me, but he pulled his hand back, his eyes filling with disgust. “Go home and clean yourself up.” I took a taxi to the hospital alone and underwent a uterine curettage on the cold operating table. Yan Shu didn’t come home all night. At three in the morning, I was in so much pain that I called him, but he hung up on me again and again. I climbed out of bed to look for a painkiller. Just then, my phone lit up with a private message. In the video, Fu Qingqian was practically bursting with excitement as she carried a huge pile of luxury shopping bags. Someone beside her gently helped her put on a scarf. I could only see a pair of hands, but I recognized the blue sapphire cufflinks. I’d had them custom-made in Europe. They had a one-of-a-kind butterfly design, and there was only one pair in the world. They were Yan Shu’s thirtieth birthday gift. My screen flashed a few more times as several messages came in. “Sorry, Big Sis!” “Yan Shu and I wish you a happy New Year!” Within a minute, I made up my mind and sent Yan Shu one last message. “Happy New Year. Happy breakup.”

Short Tragic Stories Too Heartbreaking to Reread

I don't want a story where the male lead mindlessly abuses the female lead, only for her to end up with him anyway. Ideally, it should be high quality, and the recommended books should have plenty of romantic interests, with the protagonist getting more beautiful over time. Thanks!
