    I've been dead for three months, and Fu Hansheng was completely unaware. His heart was entirely devoted to my half-sister, Jiang Miaomiao. He accompanied her to her doctor's, gave her the best care, and even set off fireworks all night on her birthday to make her happy. Hearing that those who see the Northern Lights will be blessed with lifelong happiness, Fu Hansheng actually accompanied Jiang Miaomiao to Northern Europe to see the aurora borealis while I was pregnant. As for me, his legally married partner, Fu Hansheng never cared. He always assumed that no matter what he did, I would obediently wait for him to come home. Until the police found my fragmented remains and, based on DNA testing, tracked down Fu Hansheng. Knowing the truth, Fu Hansheng went mad! He didn't let anyone who harmed me get away with it, including himself.

    🌿🌿①A short, heart-wrenching story. "President, Madam is dead." Zhou Yansheng had just fallen asleep on the hospital bed when he received the call from Assistant Li. "What did you say?" His voice was hoarse. Assistant Li repeated, "Madam... She's dead." Zhou Yansheng froze for a few seconds. Last night, he went to ransom the family with a ransom of 100 million. The kidnappers demanded he choose between his wife, Xu Sisi, and his beloved Xu Xiaonuan. The two were each hanging from a large tree on the edge of a cliff. Below them, the raging, bottomless Minjiang River flowed. Zhou Yansheng offered to go back and get another 100 million to ensure their safety. But the kidnappers, fearing complications, only wanted the 100 million ransom and forced him to choose one to save on the spot. He hesitated for less than ten seconds before saying, "I choose Xu Xiaonuan."
