Book No. 40 by the Papaya Lover

Shen Qingci spent eight years as a wife in name only, caring for her sick mother-in-law and raising her spoiled sister-in-law, all while waiting for her husband, Lin Weiguo, to graduate from university and bring her to the city.

But instead, he returned with a fashionable city woman, heavily pregnant, and a cold divorce agreement: “Shen Qingci, you’re illiterate. Don’t stand in the way of my future.”

The whole village waited to see Shen Qingci make a fool of herself, betting she’d either kill herself or throw a fit.

To everyone’s surprise, Shen Qingci signed the papers without hesitation, took her enormous compensation payment, cut ties with her family, and moved into the dilapidated clinic at the end of the village, the one everyone else avoided.

That was where Qin Lie lived, the roughest barefoot doctor in the whole fishing village. He was built like a tank, with a wolf’s gaze, and rumors said he had blood on his hands.

Everyone said Shen Qingci must have been driven mad with anger to dare provoke this living King of Hell.
