Synopsis:

[Chasing the Wife to the Crematorium] [Bittersweet Fairytale]

In high school, the Ji family found their truant daughter, Ji Lingzhen, a deskmate to keep her company after school and help her with homework.

Meng Libai, who worked her way through school, was conscientious, patient, and gentle.

Ji Lingzhen couldn't even say what it was about Meng Libai that attracted her.

On rainy nights, she would ask Meng Libai to stay over.

In her room, while the rain poured outside, a storm raged within.

She would wait until Meng Libai had saved enough money, then take a green train with her for more than ten hours, exploring everywhere from the northern frontier to the southern reaches.

Ji Lingzhen knew she was already in too deep to pull herself out.

Then, without warning, the truth about Meng Libai's parents came to light: they were financial fraudsters.

Meng Libai disappeared soon afterward.

Her home, her school, everything she had left behind was gone, as if she had never been there at all.

Ji Lingzhen kept sending messages, desperate for an explanation. All she got in reply were mass messages from a stranger, pleading for money and playing the victim.

-

Years later, when they met again, Ji Lingzhen had already left the past behind.

But the one who had left first was still stuck in the past, unable to let go.

Meng Libai was dead drunk, her eyes red, her expression even more desolate. "I'm sorry, Meng Libai. I didn't know what else to do. Back then, I couldn't even see a tomorrow."

After Divorcing a Wealthy Omega, by Ji Lu Lanxing, ID: 9593058

Chasing the wife to the crematorium, both sweet and bittersweet

For three years of high school, Pei Shijin was the heiress Lu Yixue's sidekick for two and a half years, and quietly loved her for those same two and a half years.

Lu Yixue was the apple of the Lu family's eye, refined and elegant, dazzling and radiant. Pei Shijin, on the other hand, was like dirt in the gutter, running around all day to pay off debts and survive.

She thought their farewell after graduation would be the last time they ever met. She never imagined she would cross paths with Lu Yixue again.

Until Lu Yixue's parents found her at a hospital, where she was selling her pheromones. They wanted her to enter a marriage of convenience with Lu Yixue.

It turned out Lu Yixue had a hereditary genetic disease. To live a normal, healthy life, she needed to pair with an Alpha whose pheromones were a 100% match and have a child together.

Lu Yixue's parents paid off all of Pei Shijin's debts and arranged the best hospital room and treatment for her mother. Pei Shijin had no reason to refuse.

At the time, Pei Shijin was secretly delighted, excited, and grateful for the gods' mercy.

During the day, she waited on Lu Yixue hand and foot, cooking for her and holding an umbrella over her. At night, she tried every way she could to seduce and tease her, doing her best to make Lu Yixue feel good and happy.

Yet Lu Yixue never smiled at her.

By chance, Pei Shijin overheard Lu Yixue describing her to a friend: "She's a scheming woman who'll do anything to climb into the upper class. She's disgusting. I'm only putting up with her for my parents' sake."

By then, their daughter was already three, and Lu Yixue's genetic disease had been completely cured.

Pei Shijin sat alone all night. The next day, she left on her own, leaving behind a signed divorce agreement.

*

Lu Yixue had always thought Pei Shijin was the kind of person who would stop at nothing for money. She had taken Pei Shijin's warmth and tenderness for granted, yet begrudged her even the smallest smile.

When she saw the empty house and the divorce agreement, Lu Yixue merely thought of Pei Shijin as a burden she had gotten rid of, and had all traces of her erased.

Everyone else was tactful enough never to mention Pei Shijin in front of Lu Yixue.

Until, at a banquet, she saw Pei Shijin standing beside another Omega, holding the hand of an unfamiliar child who called her "Mom," giving another mother and daughter everything that had once belonged to her.
