“Is that the knife I just bought?” Yan Xi’s face was not red and her heart was not beating fast. She smiled and asked, “Do you think it’s fast?”
“Don’t give me that crap.” Gu Shen did not take the document back. “Think carefully. I’ll get the document back before tomorrow morning. It’s up to you to sign or not.”
With that, he wheeled himself out of the room.
Yan Xi thought to herself that only a fool would sign it.
She knew from the book that if she took the money and ran away, she would end up being murdered and her body burned. As for the money, it would be taken away by Zhang Ming to have fun with her bestie.
Instead of getting murdered, she thought she might as well stay with Gu Shen and get a handsome rich husband for free. What was more, She got to torture jerk.
…
The anti-inflammatory medicine didn’t seem to have any effect. In the middle of the night, Yan Xi’s wound started to exacerbate.
Her entire body was boiling hot, like a half-melted wax. She felt extremely uncomfortable.
Her throat was hoarse and dry, and she could not make any sound, so Yan Xi did not call for help. She forced herself to sit up and found anti-inflammatory medicine from the bedside drawer. She chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed them.
The bitter taste of the medicine spread in her mouth, but Yan Xi did not feel uncomfortable. She was already used to this taste.
At the age of fourteen, Yan Xi was admitted to a medical school and mentored by Zheng Ming, one of the top doctors in the country. At the age of twenty-three, she received a doctorate degree and became an attending physician in the hospital. However, before she could enjoy her bright future, she was thrown into a book. The only thing that kept her in this book was her handsome husband.
However, the terrible things that the Host did to Gu Shen were too many to be counted. She didn’t know if she could save this broken marriage.
While she was lost in thought, the pain started to subside and soon she drifted into a deep sleep.
After sleeping for a few hours, Yan Xi was woken up by someone. A sharp voice rang in her ears. The person felt that it was not enough and slapped Yan Xi’s wound.
“Why are you still sleeping? Zhang Ming is about to go to court!” Su Wanwan rattled on by her ear. “If the other party doesn’t withdraw the lawsuit, he’ll be sentenced to at least 15 years in jail. Didn’t you say you would help him?! What have you done?!”
Enduring the intense pain in her chest, Yan Xi impatiently opened her eyes and looked at Su Wan with a bone-chilling gaze.
She retorted unreservedly, “Can’t you see the wounds on my body? If you like Zhang Ming so much, why don’t you find someone to help him Instead of me.”
“What nonsense are you spouting?” Su Wan felt guilty but she continued as if she was in the right. “Even if you’re injured, you can’t ignore Zhang Ming! He loves you so much that he hurt people because he was afraid you would be treated unfairly. How could you allow yourself to watch him being sent to the jail?”
“Afraid I would be treated unfairly?” Yan Xi sneered. “He’s afraid that he won’t be able to get the money.”
Su Wan widened her eyes. “How can you say that about him?! Go beg Gu Shen, give in to him, and ask him to drop the lawsuit.”
Yan Xi sneered. “Instead of asking me to beg Gu Shen, tell Zhang Ming that he should be happy that I didn’t sue him for hitting my husband.”

Su Wan was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise, “Yan Xi, what’s wrong with you? Don’t you like Zhang Ming? Why are you calling Gu Shen your husband now? Did he force you to say so?”
“My husband treats me very well.” Yan Xi raised her chin and said proudly, “Don’t talk nonsense from now on. I only love my husband now. Who the fuck is Zhang Ming?”
Yan Xi called Gu Shen husband very sweetly.
Gu Shen sat in the wheelchair and looked at the person in front of him with a dark gaze.
What the hell was Yan Xi thinking? He frowned, but at the same time, a sliver of hope popped up in his heart..
