Ning Shuqian was lying on the hospital bed, her messy hair scattered on the pillow with sweat, sticking to her cheeks. Her beautiful willow-shaped eyebrows seemed to have faded of color, leaving only a thin gray and black, looking so monotonous. Her enchanting eyes had deep crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, outlining the evidence of aging. If you look closely, you can still see clear pores on both sides of her delicate nose. There are dry fine lines on her beautiful lips, and white flakes are curled up, like a petal that has bloomed to the whitest white.
Age has left a deep mark on Ning Shuqian's face.
The sorrow of fading beauty and fading love constantly reminded her of Wen Haowen's cruelty and disloyalty towards her.
Wen Haowen actually wanted to divorce her.
Every time she thought about it, she felt a pain in her heart, and she was completely panic-stricken and had no idea what was going on.
What should she do
The door of the ward was pushed open, and Xia Ruya walked in slowly carrying a fruit basket.
"Aunt Ning!" Xia Ruya called softly, her voice gentle and cautious, as if she was afraid of disturbing her.
She did not forget what happened when Ning Shuqian went crazy. She was like a mad bull, with red eyes and completely lost her humanity.
Ning Shuqian raised her head in a daze: "Ruya, why are you here?"
Since she was hospitalized, except for Yuya who came to see her and talk to her every day, no one in the Wen family came to see her. Even Wen Haowen ignored her. She was a little surprised that Xia Ruya would come to see her.
Xia Ruya sat down beside the bed and gently tucked the quilt around Ning Shuqian. "Aunt Ning, I'm sorry! I haven't come to see you recently. I see that you seem to be in better shape and more energetic."
"So many things have happened to you recently, but you still remember me and come to the hospital to see me. I naturally won't blame you." Ning Shuqian looked at her, and her appearance became haggard. Her delicate eyebrows were filled with sorrow, her big watery eyes were filled with melancholy, and her beautiful red lips were pale.
Being kicked out of the Wen family, being cut off from the Xia family, and being expelled from the Zhishan Ya Society, any one of these was a fatal blow to her.
Xia Ruya's eyes suddenly filled with tears, and tears flashed in her eyes.
This time, she was defeated miserably by Wen Xinya, which dealt her a heavy blow. She only calmed down in the past two days and wanted to come and see Ning Shuqian. Although the Wen family wanted to kick Ning Shuqian out of the house and Wen Haowen was determined to divorce Ning Shuqian, Ning Shuqian was quite scheming and resourceful, so perhaps she could still find a way to keep her position.
Ning Shuqian looked at her forced smile and felt bad: "Ruya, you have suffered so much. I never thought that after two years of planning, we would be outwitted by that little bitch Wen Xinya."
Thinking of Wen Xinya, the hatred in her heart almost penetrated her heart and burst out of her body.
Xia Ruya started to cry, her voice sobbing with heartbreak: "Aunt Ning, I don't know where we lost, and I don't know what we did wrong all along. Why no matter what we do, we can't escape Wen Xinya's calculations, as if no matter how we calculated and planned, in the end we became the sword in Wen Xinya's hand, and in the end it was our hearts that were pierced, and we were in so much pain that we wanted to die."
Ning Shuqian clenched her hands into fists, and the veins on her thin arms were bulging, looking ferocious.
Xia Ruya was extremely sad: "As of now, Lin Mengxue has been accused by the hospital of violating professional ethics and hospital regulations for false diagnosis. She has been convicted and sentenced to six months in prison. The Wen family has also brought Master Luo Le to court. While the police were investigating and collecting evidence, they uncovered a number of medical crimes and were sentenced to three years in prison."
Ning Shuqian's eyes suddenly widened, as if struck by a bolt from the blue. It happened too fast... Everything happened too fast, so fast that she was caught off guard.
If Lin Mengxue and Luo Le were found guilty, then her fake pregnancy would be completely exposed to everyone in the world.
She suddenly felt a splitting headache.
Xia Ruya continued to cry, "I have ended up with nothing. Even Uncle Wen wants to divorce you. I heard that Uncle Wen recently hired a lawyer to draft a divorce agreement..."
Ning Shuqian's eyes suddenly widened, and she grabbed Xia Ruya's arm, her sharp nails piercing into her flesh: "What did you say?"
She couldn't believe that all this was true. Although Wen Haowen didn't come to the hospital to see her during this period, there had been no movement regarding the divorce. She thought that Wen Haowen had given up the idea of divorce because of their years of marriage.
Xia Ruya's words were like a thunderbolt, striking her hard. She could hardly believe her ears.
There were still tears in Xia Ruya's eyes, making her look fragile and pitiful: "Aunt Ning, don't you know? Uncle Wen... has recently hired several lawyers to draft divorce agreements with you. It seems that he is not satisfied with the content of the agreement, so he keeps changing lawyers."
Ning Shuqian's body slumped down. She didn't expect Wen Haowen to actually divorce her. Thinking back to that night, Wen Haowen said he wouldn't give her a dime in the divorce, so... that's why he kept changing lawyers!
He was so cruel to her.
She thought of Mo Yunyao again. She had mocked Mo Yunyao in the past, but she couldn't hold her man's heart and ended up with such a tragic ending. But how could her ending be any better than Mo Yunyao's now
Her fate was even more miserable than Mo Yunyao's.
She was discarded by Wen Haowen like a worn-out shoe!
Her depressed mood frightened Xia Ruya: "Aunt Ning, Aunt Ning..."
Ning Shuqian raised her head and looked at Xia Ruya, crying silently: "We have been married for eighteen years. One day of marriage means a hundred days of grace, but he is so unkind to me."
Xia Ruya didn't know what to say for a moment: "Aunt Ning... I'm sorry, it's all because of me. If it weren't for my random advice, you wouldn't have used fake pregnancy to deal with Wen Xinya, and you wouldn't have ended up like this..."
Looking at Ning Shuqian's depressed look and her fading face, she couldn't help but laugh at herself for trying all sorts of desperate measures. How could such a Ning Shuqian possibly win over Wen Haowen? The saying that beauty fades and love fades has been proven since ancient times.
Ning Shuqian just kept crying, her heart breaking: "He was so cruel and heartless to me..."
She should have realized long ago that this man was inherently heartless.
For a moment, Xia Ruya didn't know how to comfort Ning Shuqian, or she didn't want to comfort her at all. In her eyes, Ning Shuqian had completely become a discarded pawn and could no longer play any role.
But... she still patiently stayed with her because she still had some value to her.
That is, hatred for Wen Xinya!
