The 1980S: I Shut My Heart After a Terminal Diagnosis, and My Ex-Husband and Wretched Son Are Drowning in Regret

Far from home and orphaned, Ye Miao was at her most desperate when Wang Wenbin saved her and gave her a home. She worked hard to keep the household running and gave everything she had, only to be told by her son that she was a freeloader. Even the marriage she cherished turned out to be a lie. Wang Wenbin married her only to trap her in the kitchen, so he could give his Peking University admission spot to his childhood sweetheart. Her husband wanted Zhou Qian as his wife, and her son wanted Zhou Qian as his new mother. If that was what they wanted, she would make it happen. With a diagnosis of pituitary cancer in hand, Ye Miao divorces him without hesitation and goes to the capital for treatment. Wang Wenbin finds her old shoes by the river and thinks she is dead. By the time he finally manages to find her with their son, Ye Miao is wearing a diamond ring and walking down the aisle with her attending physician, Jiang Songbai. “Sorry, you have your childhood sweetheart, and I have my childhood friend.”
