Letting Nana recall those things that only evoke fear in her, and having her recount them to hundreds of millions of viewers in the live stream, is another form of redemption.
Nana paused briefly before continuing, "Then, my nightmare truly began. Behind my back, he had someone break my father's leg, used his connections to get my mother fired from her job, and on the day the agreed-upon dowry was to be given, he had someone... he rape me. When I woke up in the hospital, he was standing by my bedside. He said that no one but him would want a slut who had been with so many men. He said there was no dowry at all; if I wanted to be with him, he would accept me, otherwise, I could go be with whomever I wanted. I was devastated, both physically and mentally, and couldn't think of anything else. I felt like my whole life was ruined. Every time I closed my eyes, I would remember that grove of trees, those men on top of me... For six months, I attempted suicide more than once, but he always managed to stop me. My parents, unaware that he had tricked me... actually agreed to forgo the dowry and let us get married. They even signed some kind of gift agreement, the gist of which was that after they passed away, regardless of whether we were still married, 70% of their property would belong to him..."
Nana couldn't continue speaking.
She just kept crying, and then kept raising her hand to wipe the tears off her face.
It was just a story, yet it enraged everyone who heard it.
[Ma De, Hell is empty, all the devils are here on earth.]
I seriously doubt whether that man and his family have a history of mental illness. Seriously, could a normal person do something so utterly heinous?
I just want to know, what kind of distorted family education could produce such a twisted and degenerate individual?
【I'm not Sister Li, I'm really not Sister Li! How could such a serious case of incest not be investigated?】
[And what about those gift agreements? Are they really signed voluntarily? I doubt any parent in the world would willingly sign such an agreement.]
[Excuse my frankness, but this difference in quality is somewhat reminiscent of PCTV, don't you all think so?]
[Miss, I suggest you call the police immediately. That man and his family are definitely not clean.]
Sister, aren't you running yet? If you don't run, I'll drive a bulldozer and carry you away!
Even though Wan Jiao could tell from Nana's face that she had suffered a lot in that relationship, she never expected there to be such heinous details.
This is truly outrageous and infuriating.
Looking at the scrolling comments and Nana crying uncontrollably, she gently said, "Nana, please remember this: any relationship that makes you feel uncomfortable is wrong. But it's not your fault, it's the other person's. He's the one who brings you bad luck, brings bad luck to your family, and makes your life, work, and everything else extremely difficult. It's easy to resolve, as long as you dare to say no and use the law to protect yourself and your family."
After speaking with Nana, Wan Jiao changed the subject and gave instructions to the viewers in the live stream.
"Whether you are male or female, no matter your age, you may encounter someone whose birth chart clashes with yours, who brings misfortune to you or even your family. If you encounter such a person, don't waste time talking to them, just turn around and cut your losses. Please remember that only by staying away from rotten people can you embrace a wonderful new life."
The live chat exploded again.
These are all posts from netizens who are being targeted by PPTA (a form of online dating scam) or struggling in a relationship; they are their own experiences.
[When I was three months pregnant, he made me faint from anger. Not only did he not take me to the hospital, but he also kicked me twice and pretended nothing happened. When I was six months pregnant, he abused me, beating me black and blue, and even said he wouldn't hit my belly because it was carrying his child. At the time, for the sake of the child, I chose to swallow my anger and forgive him. But domestic violence is never a one-time thing; it's either zero times or countless times... In three years of marriage, he has abused me thirteen times. At the worst, he broke my ribs, and I was bedridden and unable to move, yet he still wanted to have sex with me... I am currently going through divorce proceedings and hope to get rid of him as soon as possible.]
Last night, my water broke and I was hospitalized. After he took me there, he went out for drinks and barbecue with a woman, and they even booked a hotel room. When he came back this morning, I hadn't given birth yet. I asked him where he'd been all night, and he started yelling at me. Later, while he was in the bathroom, I checked his phone and discovered his infidelity. I yelled at the woman and blocked her. When he came out, he grabbed my neck and told me I'd better die in the delivery room. I initially thought he was just saying it in anger, but when I had a difficult labor and severe bleeding, the doctor told him there was a high chance the baby wouldn't survive and to prepare himself. He actually knelt before the doctor and begged to save the baby. His exact words were: "If the mother dies, she dies, but my son is innocent." If my mother hadn't overheard this, I wouldn't have known that my life was worthless to him.
My baby was three months old, and I had a high fever of 39.8°C. My in-laws were playing mahjong, and my husband was playing video games. No one took me to the hospital, no one bought me medicine, and no one helped me take care of my baby. The baby cried incessantly, and I completely broke down. But even in my breakdown, I couldn't let it last too long because my baby was waiting for me to comfort her. In fifty-three seconds, I quickly composed myself, soothed my baby, changed my clothes, and carried her out to the hospital for an IV drip…
[I was nine months pregnant when I had an argument with my husband on the highway. He stopped the car, dragged me out, dumped me on the side of the road, and drove off. That stretch of road was very remote; there were no other cars around. I really didn't know what to do; I could only cry. Eventually, the traffic police found me and took me home!]
[I was eight months pregnant when I got up in the middle of the night because I was thirsty. I asked my husband to get me a glass of water, but he said I bothered him with everything. He asked if I didn't have hands or feet. At that moment, I knew I had married the wrong person.]

…
Nana had stopped crying. She was holding her phone and scrolling through the posts from other netizens about their own experiences.
The more I look at it, the more suffocated I feel.
It turns out... she wasn't the only one in this world who suffered so much in love, feeling like she was living a life worse than death.
So it turns out... we're all the same.
The really shocking thing is that it seems like it's mostly women who suffer the most injustice and live a life worse than death.
Nana noticed the problem, and sharp-eyed netizens also noticed it.
Slightly younger girls, around sixteen or seventeen years old and with almost no romantic experience, started asking: "Why is it that in the end, women suffer more injustice in a romantic relationship?"
