Chapter 179 A Broken Relationship



When Yu Sheng woke up, it was already late at night.

She opened her heavy eyelids, and the first thing she saw was the IV dripping down, followed by the white ceiling and the glaring white light.

After my eyes adjusted a bit, I could tell from the room layout that this must be a hospital.

She had just woken up, her mind was foggy, and she wondered why, while in the hospital, some terrifying images had flashed through her mind—

There were scenes of Shang Yan pinning her against the wall and kissing her, scenes of her actively touching Shang Yan's arm, scenes of them holding hands tightly and entwined, scenes of them with their clothes disheveled but pressed tightly against each other, scenes of him roaming over her body...

Yu Sheng was terrified.

My eyes widened, and my heart pounded!

Oh my god!

Did she have some kind of shameful dream?

If it wasn't a dream, why would she have those images in her mind?

But soon, Yu Sheng realized that it was not a dream, but something that really happened in the real world!

She and Shang Yan not only touched, kissed, but also...

Although she was alone in the room, she still covered her head in shame.

Her mind was in turmoil, and her brain was in complete chaos.

In her confusion, she wondered: Why did I do such an outrageous thing with Shang Yan?

As soon as the question arises, the answer becomes obvious—

They were drugged!

Realizing this, Yu Sheng abruptly threw off the covers, sat up, and began to recall the whole story in her mind—

From the moment she received the call from the yacht crew, to her arrival at the cabin and meeting Shang Yan, to the moment the door was locked and they discovered they had been drugged, and then to the subsequent arrivals of Li Susu, Gu Ye, and Qiao Moya, she remembered it all…

In particular, every single word Shang Yan said when explaining to her why they had been drugged!

The anger caused by Gu Ye's second betrayal overshadowed the shame she felt for her affair with Shang Yan.

Although she had already decided to divorce him, she still couldn't remain unmoved when she learned that he had betrayed her a second time. This didn't mean she still cared about him; it just felt... that they weren't divorced yet, so how could he betray their marriage again and again?

What's more, this time the person he cheated on with was Qiao Moya!

After discovering his affair with Jiang Jiang, she said in a fit of pique that she would allow him to cheat, but not with Qiao Moya!

Although she said it out of spite, the second half of it was what she truly thought!

He knew perfectly well that she and Qiao Moya were enemies, yet he still...

"Creak—"

The sound of the door opening interrupted Yu Sheng's thoughts.

Looking up, he saw that the person who had come was Gu Ye.

Gu Ye had been staying by Yu Sheng's bedside the whole time, and he had just left to go to the bathroom.

When he saw that Yu Sheng was awake, he was as happy as a child. He strode towards her and asked, "You're awake? Is anything bothering you?"

Seeing that Yu Sheng didn't speak and just stared at him coldly, his heart skipped a beat.

Could Shang Yan have told her that he suspected him of drugging them?

After considering this possibility, Gu immediately explained, "Sheng Sheng, I don't know what Shang Yan said to you, but I swear to God, I didn't drug you. You're carrying my child, and I would never do such a thing."

"You didn't drug me, but your lover did, Gu Ye. Why did you choose Qiao Moya as your lover?"

These words were on the tip of Yu Sheng's tongue, but she managed to hold them back.

Saying it out loud only serves to vent my frustrations; it has no other purpose than to do so.

She could even imagine that after she told him, he would put on a three-part act of crying, kneeling, and self-harm!

After all the commotion, she still had to forgive him—she had to maintain this broken relationship with him until Xiao Cheng's surgery!

Since we still need to maintain the relationship, we might as well pretend we know nothing and avoid making trouble for ourselves!

Yu Sheng suppressed her anger and pretended not to understand what he was saying: "My brother didn't tell me anything..."

Gu also breathed a sigh of relief, then said guiltily, "I thought your brother told you that I was the one who drugged you..."

Yu Sheng's eyes held a hint of sarcasm, but her words were surprisingly understanding: "Even if my brother said that, I wouldn't believe it. I'm carrying your child, how could you do such a thing?"

Unaware of the mockery in Yu Sheng's eyes, Gu Ye excitedly grabbed Yu Sheng's hand, "Sheng Sheng, thank you for trusting me!"

Gu Ye's touch filled Yu Sheng with disgust. She pretended to flip her hair, pulled her hand back, and asked Gu Ye suspiciously, "Do you know who drugged me and my brother and locked us up?"

Gu Ye's eyes darted around, and he continued to shift the blame onto Li Susu.

What he said to Yu Sheng was almost identical to what Shang Yan had just said.

Upon hearing this, Yu Sheng's thoughts were largely the same as Shang Yan's.

However, compared to Shang Yan, Yu Sheng felt a sense of disappointment.

How can I describe this disappointment?

I never expected him to be this kind of person!

In order to prevent Qiao Moya from being exposed, and to prevent their illicit affair from being revealed, he could lie through his teeth and frame her with a straight face!

Yu Sheng couldn't help but sigh: Gu Ye, I've known you for ten years, how come I never discovered you were a person with questionable character? Was I too trusting of you, or were you just too good at hiding it? What is your true nature?

She once thought he was a ray of light illuminating her dark and damp world, but now she feels that the light is either fake or just her imagination. What is the truth?

Yu Sheng stared at Gu Ye, trying to see what was going on in his eyes.

As she watched, suddenly his gentle and considerate face turned sinister and terrifying, then back to gentle and considerate again. The two switched rapidly in her eyes. In the end, one half of his face was gentle and the other half sinister, just like a demon!

Gu noticed that Yu Sheng was acting strangely and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yu Sheng was stunned for a moment, then quickly looked away.

She didn't dare look at him anymore and whispered, "No, I just feel a little tired..."

"Then lie down and sleep for a while longer."

After Yu Sheng lay down, Gu Ye said again, "Shang Yan told the doctor that you are pregnant, so when the doctor gave you medication, it was all medication that is safe for pregnant women. You don't need to worry about it harming the fetus."

If Gu Ye hadn't reminded her, Yu Sheng would have forgotten that she was pregnant.

But at that moment, she really didn't have the energy to say anything more to him. She responded softly and closed her eyes.

She thought that if she closed her eyes, Gu Ye's demonic image would disappear, but it didn't. That image appeared in her mind like a lighthouse.

An unspeakable fear, like the icy, bone-chilling seawater in the dark night, enveloped her mind and body; it felt as if she were about to drown in the sea during the day.

Just then, she suddenly remembered the image of Shang Yan riding a flying motorcycle towards her like a hero...

She suddenly opened her eyes—

Shang Yan has also taken Chinese medicine. What is his condition now?
