Chapter 536: Chapter 536: The Scent Disappears, The Jade Perishes_1
The arrogance of the mistress gave Liu Mengjiao a great shock, triggering a fetal instability that led her to the hospital.
It was then that her mother-in-law grew somewhat worried and rebuked her son, only then did Ma Liwei apologize to Liu Mengjiao.
However, Liu Mengjiao was immensely disappointed in the man in front of her, and in her anger wanted to abort the child and divorce him.
Ma Liwei kneeled in front of Liu Mengjiao’s hospital bed, begging her for mercy, swearing to change his ways, promising to end his relationship with the other woman.
With her hand roaming over her protruded belly, Liu Mengjiao eventually softened up, and for the sake of her child, she decided to believe in him one more time!
After this incident, Ma Liwei did quiet down for some time, spending most nights at home with Liu Mengjiao, softly reassuring her to focus on her pregnancy, promising a good life for her and the child.
In some seemingly warm and loving moments, Liu Mengjiao had almost thought all was past and life was going to get better.
More than two months later, Liu Mengjiao gave birth to a healthy baby boy and the in-laws were overjoyed.
While in the hospital, she was in the most expensive room, hired the most expensive babysitter, and was served the most balanced nutritional meals.
However, her husband Ma Liwei disappeared the day after the birth, with his mother only saying he was busy with work. Liu Mengjiao had a vague feeling that things were not progressing as she had hoped.
Upon returning home, the baby’s crying at night, changing diapers, feeding and other tasks, disrupted the entire night. Using sleep disruption as an excuse, Ma Liwei moved to a separate room.
With time, Liu Mengjiao finally discovered that her husband had not severed ties with his mistress, but rather their dealings had grown more intimate.
Liu Mengjiao again declared war on Ma Liwei, but now the child was already born and no one cared for her feelings anymore. The mother-in-law asked her to endure for the sake of the child, and Liwei simply took this opportunity to move out and cohabitate with his mistress.
To appease his mistress and keep her from disturbing Meng Jiao during her pregnancy, Ma Liwei had bought a villa for her. A place where he could now easily hide his beloved.
Liu Mengjiao slowly uncovered the mistress’s background, she was a female broadcaster on a live-streaming platform, nicknamed "Peach".
With the favor of Ma Liwei, Peach became more arrogant, often harassing and insulting Liu Mengjiao in various ways.
At her wit’s end, Liu Mengjiao proposed a divorce to Ma Liwei. Since there was no love left, why not just end the marriage?
To her surprise, Ma Liwei refused to divorce, saying that their family was a high-status family and that divorce would tarnish their reputation.
Ma Liwei’s indifference and Peach’s arrogance completely broke Liu Mengjiao’s heart. She decided to fight back, collecting evidence of Ma Liwei’s infidelity with the intention of filing for a divorce.
The defiant stance of Liu Mengjiao infuriated Ma Liwei, who changed his attitude abruptly by brandishing Liu Mengjiao’s nude photos, threatening to expose them if she dared to file for divorce, tarnishing her reputation and leaving her unable to face society.
For Liu Mengjiao, this was like a bolt from the blue. She had indeed taken some sexy photos in her star-studded entertainment days, but she had never taken any nude pictures.
It was only after studying the photos carefully that she realized they were taken while she was asleep.
Whether it was a fetish of Ma Liwei or if he had started preparing these photos in advance to prevent her from filing for divorce, Liu Mengjiao couldn’t be sure.
To her, from that moment on, her world was filled with nothing but fear and darkness.
The fatigue from taking care of the baby and the immense mental pressure took a toll on Liu Mengjiao’s health. She suffered severe insomnia, frequent palpitations, and splitting headaches.
On one cold, lonely, and rainy night, Liu Mengjiao, unable to sleep due to a headache, received another photo from Peach.
The photo showed a semi-naked man and woman intimately nestled together, just like lovers, and she, the wife, had indeed become the old, insignificant wife no one cared for.
Long suppressed emotions erupted suddenly like a dormant volcano, completely out of control.
In a frenzy, Liu Mengjiao ran onto the balcony and leaped from the several-storied building.
In the chilling wind and icy rain, the once peerlessly beautiful woman perished. In the nippy early spring, she was reduced to chunks of mud.
After hearing Liu Mengjiao’s story, Qin Sisi felt a mix of anger and sadness, but could only sigh helplessly.
It’s said that marriage is a woman’s second reincarnation, so one must keep their eyes wide open.
If you unfortunately marry a bad person, and you are not strong enough, the harm caused by an unhappy marriage can be devastating.
Sitting through the painful recollection of her past experiences, Liu Mengjiao’s figure began to shiver. Whether she was frightened or scared, was unclear.
Qin Sisi walked up to her and held her hand, whispering, "Don’t be afraid, I’m here to help you. Now think about what you need me to do for you."
She noticed Liu Mengjiao’s mental state wasn’t great, so she deliberately lowered her voice and tried to make herself as clear as possible.
Liu Mengjiao’s expression was a mix of sadness, anger, confusion, and fear. She muttered in a daze, "I... I have lots of things I want to do. I want my child, I want those pictures to disappear, so no one can see them. And I also want... I want to kill them....."
The shadow of hatred finally emerged in Liu Mengjiao’s eyes. She grabbed Qin Sisi’s arm fiercely and said, "Yes, kill them. Help me kill them."
Qin Sisi held onto Liu Mengjiao’s arm, comforting her with a stern voice, "Calm down. I will take you to see your child. I’ll help you make those photos disappear. But I don’t kill people. If you want revenge, we can find other ways."
Liu Mengjiao shook her head vigorously, "I hate them. I want them to die. I want them to accompany me in death."
Qin Sisi furrowed her eyebrows. Knowing that Liu Mengjiao was not in a state to reason with, she pondered for a moment and then spoke again, "Actually, to ruin someone, it isn’t always necessary to kill them. Get some rest now, and tomorrow night I will take you home to see your child."
After she finished speaking, she nodded to Ye You, who then waved his claw at Liu Mengjiao.
Liu Mengjiao wanted to say something more, but the moment she opened her mouth, all she saw was a blur. She closed her mouth, letting herself drift into an unknown, chaotic darkness.
Watching Liu Mengjiao disappear before her eyes, Qin Sisi let out a deep sigh and turned to Ye You, asking, "What do you think, do those two deserve to die?"
Ye You paused before saying, "Sometimes, destroying a person’s soul is more frightening than harming their body."
Qin Sisi felt a jolt in her heart, quickly walking over to sit next to Ye You. Holding onto his claw, she asked, "Are you saying that we can fulfill Liu Mengjiao’s wish completely? Can we help her kill those scumbag couple?"
Ye You said calmly, "They can die, but you can’t be the one doing it."
In the Human World, Qin Sisi’s hands cannot be stained with blood. This was Ye You’s unwavering rule.
