Chapter 1 Dog Thing
The green plum couldn't withstand the sudden arrival of a treasure!
A man's words are deceitful!
Pei Jiuyan, who once said he would pamper her for a lifetime, is now by the side of another woman, serving her hand and foot.
Yun Zhaozhao watched the video, which was only a few dozen seconds long, several times, but she could only see Pei Jiuyan's obsequious manner of serving her. She didn't know who the person next to her was, but she could tell from her fair and slender fingers that it was a woman.
Yun Zhaozhao was silent for a while, then turned off the video and made a phone call to Pei Jiuyan.
The phone was answered after a long time. The background noise on the other end was so quiet that Yun Zhaozhao could hear Pei Jiuyan's breathing.
Yun Zhaozhao heard herself say:
"Pei Jiuyan, my stomach hurts, I'm going to die!"
I feel so awful!
There was a two-second silence on the phone before Pei Jiuyan's steady voice rang out: "Yun Zhaozhao, I'm busy right now, I don't have time to comfort you!"
Yun Zhaozhao tightened her grip on the phone: "Oh! You don't have time to coax me, you have time to coax others!"
The person on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, then spoke again in a lighter tone: "Are you angry?"
"Just reminding you that you're married. You may be shameless, but I am!"
Pei Jiuyan's breathing quickened instantly: "Yun Zhaozhao, when will you ever say something nice?"
"Don't even think about it in this lifetime!" Yun Zhaozhao retorted, but there was a hint of sadness in her eyes.
He was the one who said: Even though her family is gone, she still has him! He will protect her and pamper her for the rest of his life!
He also said that in front of him, she would never need to grow up and could be her most authentic self; she would always be his little princess.
How long has it been, and you're already complaining about her harsh words?
Pei Jiuyan choked for a moment, then softened her tone: "I'll be back as soon as I'm done. Zhaozhao, be good, let's not make a fuss!"
"I'm not making a scene! Pei Jiuyan, this is the last time I'm saying it, I'm really in pain!"
This time, there was a long silence on the other end of the phone. Just when Yun Zhaozhao thought Pei Jiuyan would say, "I'll be right back," she heard Pei Jiuyan say sarcastically:
"Pain? Isn't that what you asked for?"
"Who told you to go out drinking every day? You..."
No matter what Pei Jiuyan said, Yun Zhaozhao stopped listening and hung up the phone.
"You bastard!"
Yun Zhaozhao cursed under her breath. Something splashed on her hand. She raised her hand to touch her face and realized that she was already in tears.
Pei Jiuyan used to rush back to the capital from Nancheng overnight because of a single sentence she said that caused him to cut his finger.
She's in excruciating pain now, but he just says she brought it on herself.
Her lower abdomen was really painful; she had some symptoms a couple of days ago, and it gradually worsened today.
Besides the lower abdominal pain, my heart was also aching, as if someone was cutting it with a small knife!
And everything that happened today was foreshadowed!
She and Pei Jiuyan were childhood sweethearts. They had known each other since they were young, started dating after graduating from high school, and married Pei Jiuyan right after graduating from university.
At that time, she thought they would be loving and affectionate for a lifetime.
Later, Pei Jiuyan became increasingly busy, and he gradually became more perfunctory towards her. Especially starting a year ago, the two had more and more conflicts, and the sweetness had become a thing of the past. In the past year, all she could remember were the endless arguments.
Before today, she and Pei Jiuyan had been giving each other the cold shoulder for a week. They had agreed to go see the aurora borealis together as their third wedding anniversary this year, but at the last minute, Pei Jiuyan broke his promise again.
She couldn't even remember how many times he had broken his promise this year!
He always has an excuse. This time he said the project had just started and he had too many things to do, so he couldn't leave. He would go later.
She immediately threw a pillow at Pei Jiuyan, telling him to get out.
As a result, Pei Jiuyan really did leave!
And he didn't come home all night!
The two argued for a week, and he didn't try to coax her like before. She went out drinking with her friends every day, and he didn't care.
Even though we live under the same roof, we haven't seen each other for a whole week.
She should have realized it sooner, but she just hadn't dared to admit it!
Pei Jiuyan doesn't love her anymore!
The person who once said he would spoil her for a lifetime is dead!
After looking down at her wedding ring, which she had worn for three years, for a while, Yun Zhaozhao suddenly took it off, put it in her pocket, and then took a taxi to the hospital.
Even if no one loves her, she must love herself!
Even late at night, the hospital is crowded.
Yun Zhaozhao sat there waiting for her number to be called, her body slightly curled up due to abdominal pain.
The oversized coat enveloped her, making her appear even smaller. Her small face, no bigger than a palm, was completely bloodless, and her lips were frighteningly white.
The sharp, intermittent pain in her lower abdomen brought tears to her usually bright eyes, making her look incredibly pitiful.
She looked up to see how much longer it would be before her turn, but instead saw someone who shouldn't be there at this time.
With just one glance, Yun Zhaozhao knew it was that bastard Pei Jiuyan.
Tall and upright, he stood out from the crowd, making him instantly noticeable.
She was initially attracted by his handsome appearance and fell deeply in love with him.
Now, at twenty-seven, he has shed the naivety of his student days and gained a more mature charm, making him even more attractive than when he was younger.
Perhaps her gaze was too focused, for Pei Jiuyan glanced in her direction, and upon seeing her, a clear look of surprise appeared in his eyes. He then frowned and walked over in a few steps.
Seeing her pale face, his brows furrowed even more, and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
What are you doing here? Are you really sick?
Pei Jiuyan raised his hand to touch her forehead, but Yun Zhaozhao avoided it.
"Don't touch me!"
Her refusal made Pei Jiuyan's eyes turn cold. He withdrew his hand and put it in his pocket, his expression somewhat indifferent: "Where do you feel unwell?"
"What's it to you!"
Yun Zhaozhao's attitude was indifferent. She had actually thought he was coming to see her. Ha!
Pei Jiuyan was very dissatisfied with her attitude. He pursed his thin lips and said after a while, "Yun Zhaozhao, you are twenty-five, not fifteen. Stop acting like a child. What's wrong?"
"Just like you said, drinking too much alcohol gives you a headache," Yun Zhaozhao said indifferently.
Pei Jiuyan had drunk quite a bit of alcohol today, and the smell of alcohol filled his nose, so he naturally couldn't tell whether Yun Zhaozhao had been drinking or not.
Hearing her words, he seemed to want to say something but held back, only saying, "There are still a few people left before you, I'll go with you!"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a nurse suddenly called out, "Where are the clerk's family members?"
Pei Jiuyan frowned, turned her head and replied, "Coming right away."
"The document is back?" Having not heard this name for so long, Yun Zhaozhao had almost forgotten that such a person existed.
The clerk was Pei's mother's savior, so even now, Pei's mother still treats her with disdain.
Her ideal daughter-in-law was Wenshu, not her, this spoiled little princess.
The document was once the biggest obstacle between her and Pei Jiuyan, and the two almost broke up because of it!
Pei Jiuyan looked at her for a while, his expression softened considerably, and he seemed quite happy.
"Yes, I've been back for over a week."
"She's at the banquet tonight too. She's having some health issues, you know, she doesn't have any family, so..."
Pei Jiuyan was interrupted by Yun Zhaozhao before he could finish speaking.
"You don't need to tell me all this, it has nothing to do with me," Yun Zhaozhao looked up at Pei Jiuyan, "Even if you slept with her, it has nothing to do with me!"
The clerk has no family; she needs to be cared for, cherished, and loved.
She had heard these words countless times since she was fifteen.
But he forgot that she had no relatives left! Her only maternal grandfather was not close to her and did not live in the country.
"Yun Zhaozhao!"
Pei Jiuyan was clearly furious. He gave her a deep look, his eyes filled with rage.
The two stared at each other for a moment, until the nurse on the other end urged again: "The clerk's family, the clerk's family..."
Pei Jiuyan frowned and said quickly, "I'll go first, wait for me a moment, I'll be right back."
Yun Zhaozhao did not refute, which Pei Jiuyan interpreted as tacit agreement.
Seeing her cooperation, Pei Jiuyan's expression softened.
Little did he know that the moment he entered the consultation room, Yun Zhaozhao had already left the hospital.
Then I heard my phone vibrating incessantly. When I picked it up, I saw that all the calls were from Pei Jiuyan.
Yun Zhaozhao blocked all his contact methods. She glanced at the ring in her pocket and threw it into the trash can outside.
After all these years, Pei Jiuyan had gotten tired of coaxing her, and she was no longer able to love him. It would be better to just break up.
