    🌹In the third week of agreeing to date Gu Chengfeng, Yu Zhiwan overheard him say, "The real heiress the Yu family found is unloved; I'm just playing around with her." "Back when Yu Zhiwan returned to the first Yu family home, she had an allergic reaction to pineapple; it was her two biological brothers who did it, deliberately giving her a hard time." Yu Zhiwan decisively broke up with Gu Chengfeng and severed ties with the Yu family. Gu Chengfeng didn't care; Yu Zhiwan was just a fallen heiress no one wanted, who would come back to him for breakfast. Until news broke that she had married another man, Gu Chengfeng panicked. He drank until he vomited blood, his eyes bloodshot, and knocked on her door, "Wanwan, divorce him, let's get back together..." But when the door opened, the powerful and arrogant man stood there, his collar slightly open, a suggestive red mark on his neck, his voice cold and arrogant: "Are you tired of living? Try harassing my wife again!"
