The Seven-Year Itch: My Ex-Husband Doesn't Know I Was Reborn

The first thing you do after making it is stab your beloved in the back. Once Shen Yixiao became a rising star in business, the first person he betrayed was me, the one who had weathered every storm by his side. At seventeen, he chased after me around campus, confessing his love and sweetly calling me “Little Moon.” At twenty, I took a knife meant for him and lost the ability to have children. At twenty-four, we walked down the aisle. The whole world envied my good fortune. Shen Yixiao doted on me, loved me, and treasured me above all else. But no one knew I was reborn. The man who once loved me more than life itself already had another woman. Before long, she would take my place, then push me off a cliff and leave me to die without a trace. He thought I would never leave him, just as I hadn’t in my previous life. But I had already bought a plane ticket overseas. Later, I left without a word. When Shen Yixiao found out, he went mad. He contacted everyone we knew and asked them to reach me. He went on a show and publicly begged me to forgive him, spent a fortune buying the top headlines on major websites to publish a missing-person notice, and wept as he pleaded with me to come back. “I was only fooling around with her!” “I was wrong.” “Will you give me one more chance?” Looking at the man before me, eyes red as he humbly begged me, I no longer had any desire to look at him again. “Sorry. You’re too late.” I took the hand of the man beside me, a distant smile on my lips.
