Early in the morning, Ning Shuqian woke up in the morning light.
The sunlight outside the window is still an orange-red, shining into the room through the light blue curtains, bringing a warm and soft feeling. Looking outside through the glass window, you can see the courtyard. The breeze blows through the tall trees and short woods, and the leaves make a rustling sound. The soft green grass tips sway gracefully, and the blooming flowers sway gently, with a faint fragrance filling the air.
Ning Shuqian had never imagined that she would marry into a wealthy family and enjoy the life of a wealthy wife. Every day she would go shopping, buy things, swipe her credit card, and get beauty treatments. There was endless money in her card, and she could choose any jewelry or beautiful clothes. All she had to do was dress herself up beautifully and make her husband happy, then she wouldn't have to worry about anything.
More importantly, she had been married to Wen Haowen for fifteen years, and Wen Haowen had always been devoted to her and had never been out drinking and partying. The occasional gossip about him was just groundless. Although Haowen had become more and more irritable towards her in the past two years, she still held him tightly in her hands and let him control her.
Everything in the past and everything happening now formed a sharp contrast and became a great irony for her.
"Aunt Ning..." The door of the ward was suddenly pushed open, and Xia Ruya walked into the ward anxiously. Seeing Ning Shuqian staring out the window in a daze, she was stunned! Could it be... that Wen Haowen's derailment was planned by her
Wen Haowen was exposed for cheating before the divorce, which was good for Ning Shuqian in every way.
Firstly, Wen Haowen became the party at fault during the divorce, so whether to divorce or not was no longer up to Wen Haowen. Secondly, even if Wen Haowen insisted on getting a divorce, Ning Shuqian could still ask for a large amount of property.
Xia Ruya couldn't help but be shocked. One really shouldn't underestimate Ning Shuqian's scheming. In order to prevent Wen Haowen from getting divorced, she actually arranged for her husband to sleep with another woman.
Ning Shuqian couldn't help but smile when she saw Xia Ruya: "Why did you come here so early in the morning? You look so anxious, did something happen?"
Xia Ruya found that she couldn't see through Ning Shuqian, and said hesitantly: "Have you... read the newspaper this morning?"
Ning Shuqian looked at her suspiciously and said, "I just woke up and haven't had time to read what was written in today's newspapers and magazines? What made you rush to the hospital in such a panic?"
Xia Ruya was stunned for a moment, moved her lips, and said carefully: "It's... it's about Uncle Wen..."
She subtly probed Ning Shuqian's expression, trying to find some clues from her face, but she remained as calm as usual, which made her feel that Ning Shuqian was somewhat unfathomable.
Ning Shuqian was startled, a little bewildered, and then her face turned ferocious: "Did he say in newspapers and magazines that he wanted to divorce me?"
Xia Ruya shook her head, handed her a magazine and newspaper, and said, not daring to look her in the eye: "You... you should read it yourself!"
"The president of Wen's Group cheated on his wife with a female employee of Wen's Group and was caught in the act!!!"
"Boom!" Ning Shuqian's eyes suddenly widened as she looked at the picture of a man and a woman that took up the entire page of the magazine. It was like a bolt from the blue. She sat on the bed in a daze, her face full of shock.
Seeing her like this, Xia Ruya said nervously: "Aunt Ning, are you...are you okay?"
She didn't look fake. Could it be that her guess was wrong? Wasn't this her plan? But where in the world could such a coincidence exist? If her guess was right, then Ning Shuqian was just acting too well.
"No, I must have seen it wrong." Ning Shuqian's face was bleak and her lips were trembling. She kept flipping through the magazine with an excited look. The disgusting photos made her believe that all this was true.
Seeing that she looked upset, Xia Ruya quickly comforted her, "Aunt Ning... Don't get excited, don't get excited."
"No... all this is not true, not true." Ning Shuqian was greatly stimulated by the pornographic photos before her eyes. Her face showed a twisted madness, and she kept tearing the magazine in her hand. The sound of "tearing" kept ringing in the living room.
Xia Ruya's lips trembled with fear, and she quickly reached out to grab the magazine in Ning Shuqian's book: "Aunt Ning, please don't be like this. The doctor said that your condition has just stabilized, you can't be emotional..."
"These photos are all fake, they must be artificially synthesized. How could Haowen do such a disgusting thing..." Ning Shuqian kept shaking her head, her voice was incredibly sharp and crazy, as if she was screaming wildly at the end of her strength, her whole face was distorted, crazy, fierce, and ugly...
Xia Ruya held her hand: "Aunt Ning, please calm down first..."
At this time, Ning Shuqian's hair was disheveled, draped messily behind her head, on her chest, and on her cheeks. In her pair of red eyes, red bloodshot threads were tangled and crisscrossed. As her pupils shrank, she looked as sinister and vicious as a venomous snake with its tongue sticking out. Her face was full of twisted madness, and she looked particularly terrifying.
Xia Ruya tried to persuade him but to no avail.
Ning Shuqian's face was ferocious and fierce, and her expression was wooden and confused: "Yes, that's right, someone must have framed Haowen..."
Xia Ruya kept comforting her: "Aunt Ning, don't get excited. Your condition has finally stabilized. If... what should we do... As for Uncle Wen's matter, you..."
Ning Shuqian stared blankly at the various magazines covering the glass coffee table. All she saw were pictures of Wen Haowen, lewdness, and chaos. She couldn't hear a word Xia Ruya said.
Haowen cheated!
Wen Haowen cheated!
Wen Haowen really cheated!
…
This sentence kept echoing in her mind, and her brain felt as if it was pierced by countless steel needles. Her pupils kept shrinking, and her eyeballs bulged out as she stared at the scene in front of her. She felt as if she was being dragged into an endless hell by a pair of invisible hands.
She thought of the deceased Mo Yunyao again. She had taken advantage of Mo Yunyao's pregnancy and deliberately went to see her. She said to her in a condescending manner and in a victorious tone, "Mrs. Wen, your husband has cheated on her, and the person he cheated on is me..."
But things change. Eighteen years have passed, and Wen Haowen has done the same thing to her as he did to Mo Yunyao. But now she is so pathetic, pitiful, and hateful...
She didn't even see through the man's heartless nature.
She was still feeling proud of herself for stealing someone else's husband.
Little did people know that Mo Yunyao’s miserable life back then was the best portrayal of her present self.
How proud she was then, how ridiculous and ironic she is now.
