In my previous life, Zhou Chenyan dissected the baby in my belly alive just to make his adopted sister smile.
My younger brother who fought for me was beaten to death by Zhou Chenyan and thrown into northern Myanmar. His life or death is unknown.
After a while of resurrection, there is still a hole in my heart, and a cold wind blows through my lungs.
A sweet female voice rang in my ears——
"Sister Yanyan, this is something Ayan asked me to pick out specifically for you. It's a Frankie custom-made piece, limited to only ten pieces worldwide! It's so meaningful!"
Zhou Zhizi smiled sweetly and showed me the greeting card that came with the bracelet.
It says: My love for you will last until death.
Looking at the lifelike gardenia on the bracelet, I felt a sense of sarcasm.
I once told Zhou Chenyan that if he wanted to divorce me one day, he didn't need to say anything, he just needed to give me a silver bracelet.
Seven years ago, on my birthday, my mother went to pick up a gift for me, but she was killed in a car accident.
The day after my mother died, my father allowed his mistress to come into the house, and she brought a younger sister who was only two years younger than me.
Before she died, my mother tightly grasped the silver bracelet carved with gardenia.
The blood blurred the lines, which was shocking.
Now, Zhou Chenyan chose to give me such a big gift to celebrate our wedding anniversary.
My fingertips trembled slightly and I hesitated to reach out.
Zhou Zhizi blinked in confusion.
"Sister Yanyan, don't you like it? Try it first, it looks great!"
If I hadn't died once, I might have really thought that her words were unintentional.
But in my previous life, when I was on the verge of death, I clearly heard her say viciously:
"Mu Yan, you should be like your mother, dying without a complete body and condemned to hell forever!"
So she clearly knew what this bracelet meant to me.
And the knife that stabbed my heart and made it bleed profusely was handed to me by her adoptive brother Zhou Chenyan himself.
Before I could refuse, Zhou Zhizi grabbed my wrist and put the bracelet on.
But I shouted coldly, "Let go!" and shook Zhou Zhizi's arm off.
She was caught off guard for a moment, screamed, and staggered and fell backwards.
In the end, it landed steadily in the arms of a tall figure.
After recovering from her shock, Zhou Zhizi looked up at the man who caught her, and her face instantly turned red.
"Ayan, you're here?"
Zhou Chenyan frowned slightly, loosened his arms around her waist, and spoke in a slightly lowered tone.
"I asked you to give me a gift, why are you so embarrassed?"
Zhou Zhizi stuck out her tongue. "I have to ask you this, right? How did you make Sister Yanyan angry? I'm just here to give you a gift, and yet I've been harmed by someone innocent!"
Hearing this, Zhou Chenyan turned and looked at me.
When he caught a glimpse of the gift box and bracelet dropped on the ground, his pupils shrank.
Ignoring my gloomy expression, Zhou Chenyan let Zhou Zhizi go first.
After closing the door, Zhou Chenyan pinched his brows, his tone adding a hint of impatience.
"Can you please stop making such a fuss? Gardenia doesn't know you don't like the bracelet, so what's the point of taking it out on her? You're almost thirty, and you're still fighting with a girl in her early twenties?"
He always knows what I care about most, so he can act recklessly and rub salt into my wounds.
I wasn't born an old woman.
After all, in my previous life, I was only 33 years old when I died.
And my original sin was that I blocked the two-way journey between him and Zhou Zhizi.
Although Zhou Zhizi also has the surname Zhou, she is not a member of the Zhou family. She is the orphan of a friend of Zhou Chenyan's father and has been fostered in the Zhou family since childhood.
She was stubborn and refused to call Zhou Chenyan brother, insisting on calling him Ah Yan without any respect.
It seems that this way, I can find an outlet for my love that has nowhere to go.
But Zhou Chenyan, who has always been law-abiding, acquiesced in his doting.
For sixteen years, Zhou Zhizi kept her feelings for Zhou Chenyan secret, yet everyone knew about it.
Even though Zhou Chenyan never responded, I, having died once, have already seen through it.
How can I, a wife I have only known for three years, compare to her sixteen years of companionship?
It’s funny that I didn’t have self-awareness in my previous life.
Of course Zhou Chenyan was attracted to Zhou Zhizi.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to dissect my baby alive for her, break my brother's legs and throw him to northern Myanmar, and even send my best friend to an underground casino, torturing her to the point where she was living a life worse than death.
Because of my love for him, I and the people around me really ended up with a miserable death.
In this life, I don’t want to be a clown for their touching love anymore.
"Zhou Chenyan, let's get a divorce."
After a long silence, the man's cold voice sounded -
"Mu Yan, there should be a limit to your temper."
Zhou Chenyan was warning me.
Even though we have been married for a year and I have never mentioned divorce no matter how angry I am, he still thinks I am just throwing a tantrum.
He threw me a check for half a million dollars without even bothering to look at me.
"Buy whatever you like, Mu Yan. Stop while you're ahead, or you'll end up in a bad situation."
Zhou Chenyan was unscrupulous and bet that I would not dare to divorce him.
Because he knows how much I love him.
But he didn't know how absurd and ridiculous that so-called love was compared to the piles of tragically dead lives.
After watching Zhou Chenyan's resolute figure gradually disappear from my sight, I got up and walked into the bedroom.
I opened the bottom drawer of the bedside table and found a thick stack of checks neatly stacked inside.
The minimum is 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and the maximum is more than 100,000 yuan.
Every time Zhou Chenyan ignored me for Zhou Zhizi, he would send me off with a check.
Before I knew it, I had saved more than three million.
That's enough.
