Chapter 1 An Unexpected Discovery

My husband cheated on me!

Looking at the opened TT packaging bag in her hand, Riemann's hand trembled uncontrollably, and a wave of nausea rose in her stomach. As if she had burned her hand, she quickly threw the packaging bag away.

Tears streamed down her face, and Riemann felt as if her heart was being torn apart, the pain almost unbearable.

Her husband hadn't touched her in a long time. She thought it was because he was under too much work pressure and couldn't get aroused sexually, but she never expected that he was having an affair!

This discovery caused her unbearable pain.

She and her husband, Huang Dehan, went from dating in college to getting married, a relationship that lasted four years and twelve years. Their relationship, which had been passionate at first, gradually became more ordinary.

Riemann felt that this was a very normal phenomenon and there was nothing to be nervous about. In fact, she also felt that the frequency of "sex" was decreasing and eventually decreasing, until there was none at all.

After all, I'm getting older, and my physical strength isn't what it used to be for young people. I don't think about it every day, or even several times a night.

Add to that the pressure of work, and it seems there's nothing wrong with not wanting it.

Riemann expressed his understanding of all of this.

However, this opened condom shattered her steadfast belief and illusions about love, causing the conviction she held dear to crumble in an instant.

Huang Dehan always drove this car, but this morning at six o'clock, Huang Dehan was going to the airport, so Li Man drove his car to take him to the airport.

Unexpectedly, on the way back, she found an opened condom bag in the gap under the driver's seat of his car.

She reached out and picked it up; the condom inside was gone, clearly already used.

Who used it? The answer is obvious.

Although she didn't want to admit it, the facts were right in front of her, leaving her no choice but to admit it—Huang Dehan had cheated on her!

After she failed to get through the green light, she braked suddenly, and the violent stop caused her bag to fall off the seat.

As she bent down to pick it up, she spotted a condom bag tucked into the gap between the seats.

Clearly, it fell accidentally, which is why it's stuck in such a hidden place; you really wouldn't find it if you didn't look carefully.

It's clear how excited and impatient they were at the time; they were only thinking about making love, and had no time to pay attention to where the condom packaging bag went.

Riemann felt as if struck by lightning, the world spinning around her. She slumped into the driver's seat, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Beep beep beep..."

A series of urgent honking came from behind the car. A driver leaned out and impatiently cursed, "Hey, you in front, hurry up and move along! Don't you know how to drive? You idiot!"

Riemann quickly wiped away her tears and drove away.

Back home, Li Man parked her car in the underground parking lot. Still feeling down, she took out her phone and called Huang Dehan.

Even though the facts were already clear, she still wanted to confirm them.

Perhaps this is all a misunderstanding?

Perhaps a friend borrowed his car, and then...

Although she herself didn't believe this reason, she still wanted to find a reason for herself so that she wouldn't be so sad.

A mechanical voice came from the other end of the phone: "The number you dialed is currently switched off. Please try again later..."

By this time, Huang Dehan had already boarded the plane.

Riemann reluctantly put down her phone.

Sadness surged in like a tide, instantly engulfing her. Like a drowning person, no matter how much she struggled, it was all in vain. Finally, she gave up the struggle and immersed herself in sadness.
