From Now On, No More Longing for You

In our seventh year of marriage, my husband’s kept mistress died in a car accident.

Everyone suspected I had done it, but he didn’t believe them.

He even dealt with the people spreading rumors and completely settled back into family life.

I thought the prodigal had turned over a new leaf, so I tore up the divorce papers I had prepared, and we resumed life as a loving couple.

The day I found out I was pregnant, I was overjoyed and wanted to surprise him.

But I accidentally overheard a conversation between him and a friend.

“Zhiyan, you tricked Jiang Wantang into climbing a snowy mountain, then left her there to nearly freeze to death. You went diving with her, but took her into shark-infested waters and nearly got her eaten. You’ve hurt her fifty-two times in three months. Are you still not going to stop?”

Pei Zhiyan said coldly:

“I’ll never let Jiang Wantang off. She dared to go after Rou Rou, so she’d better be ready to pay a hundred times over.”

“She’s only been hurt fifty-two times so far. Forty-eight more to go. Once she’s paid back every bit of the pain Rou Rou suffered, I’ll send her down to apologize to Rou Rou in person!”

I felt as if I’d fallen into an icy abyss. Only then did I realize that his supposed change of heart had all been a lie.

Pei Zhiyan also believed I had caused his mistress’s car accident. He had stayed by my side only to take revenge.

My heart shattered, but I didn’t burst in and make a scene. Instead, I left my pregnancy report behind and staged my death on our wedding anniversary.

Later, I heard that Pei Zhiyan, always so composed and detached, had gone gray overnight after learning that his wife and unborn child had both died.
