Her ex-husband was too cold; after being reborn, she hid her pregnant belly and left her father behi

Chapter 001: She's Just Cannon Fodder

"Ms. Jiang, your baby is not fully formed yet, and the pregnancy is unstable. You must not have such emotional fluctuations like this in the future, or you will miscarry!"

Jiang Qianhui's slender fingers clenched the hem of her clothes, her eyes filled with astonishment. "Didn't I become infertile after my miscarriage three years ago? How... how could I be pregnant again?"

The doctor patted her hand reassuringly, "This child came through such a difficult journey, so you need to take extra care of it. What could be more important than the child?"

After a long while, Jiang Qianhui's eyes filled with tears, "You're right, you're right..."

In that instant, Jiang Qianhui suddenly understood many things.

From Zhan Yanxun's perspective, her marriage with him was just a business arrangement from the beginning. Only Jiang Qianhui cherished those fragmented past events, which Zhan Yanxun had long forgotten.

He fell in love with someone else. Did she think that crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide would win him back? She just made a fool of herself.

In recent years, she lost her parents and brother one after another, and thought she had no relatives left in the world. Unexpectedly, she was blessed with a child. Perhaps she should be content.

She should sign the divorce papers and let him be with Qiao Weiwei.

"jingle--"

Jiang Qianhui's phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was Zhan Yanxun.

Jiang Qianhui took a few deep breaths before answering the phone, taking this opportunity to explain things to him.

"Zhan Yanxun, I've thought about what you said before. Prepare the divorce papers, I'm coming over..."

Jiang Qianhui was interrupted by a voice from the other end of the phone before she could finish speaking.

"Ah—Sister Jiang, it's me." The voice was sweet and melodious; it was Qiao Weiwei.

"Since Sister Jiang has come to her senses, let's come to the villa in western Beijing and sign the papers."

Jiang Qianhui's throat was dry, and she responded softly.

"it is good"

*

Villas in western Beijing.

Qiao Weiwei, dressed in silk loungewear, warmly poured a glass of water for Jiang Qianhui, who had just entered the room, behaving like a hostess.

"Sister Jiang, come on, have some water."

Jiang Qianhui looked up at the home where she had lived for three years, now only Qiao Weiwei was there.

"Sister, Yanxun said he has something to do today and won't be back until later. Please have a seat."

Jiang Qianhui's hands and feet were a little stiff. Although she had figured it out, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken when she actually faced it all.

She once had high hopes and deep love for this place.

All of this will come to an end today.

Jiang Qianhui forced a stiff smile. "No need to wait for him. I'll leave as soon as I sign it. Give me the contract."

She reached out to flip through the contract in front of her, but Qiao Weiwei grabbed her hand.

Qiao Weiwei smiled meaningfully. "Sister Jiang, don't be in such a hurry. Don't you want to know how your parents died?"

Jiang Qianhui frowned and forcefully shook off his hand. "What does it have to do with you how my parents died!"

She was already thoroughly fed up. Her parents had already passed away, and she didn't want them to be subjected to the gossip and slander of a mistress even after their deaths because of her.

A year ago, the Jiang Group was suspected of financial fraud. Her father was arrested and imprisoned, and later died in prison. Her mother suffered a stroke due to the shock and committed suicide. And she could do nothing.

She has been unfilial enough.

"Sister Jiang, haven't you ever thought about why they're suspected of financial fraud?" Qiao Weiwei sipped her coffee elegantly, a smile playing on her lips as she looked at Jiang Qianhui with a relaxed expression.

"What does all this have to do with you!" Jiang Qianhui slammed her fist on the table, unable to contain herself any longer. "If you don't want me to sign the divorce papers, then continue being your mistress. I don't have time to waste on your nonsense!"

Jiang Qianhui got up to leave, but Qiao Weiwei stopped her again and handed her a contract. Jiang Qianhui frowned and opened it.

"Does this look familiar? This is the project your parents committed financial fraud in, Sister Jiang. Haven't you ever been surprised? The Jiang Group is clearly operating well and has ample funds."

A sense of panic began to rise within her, and Jiang Qianhui swallowed hard. "So?"

Qiao Weiwei smiled, then took out a safety amulet and waved it in front of Jiang Qianhui. "Does Sister Jiang recognize this?"

Jiang Qianhui's pupils contracted sharply, and she reached out to snatch it: "How did it end up here!"

This is a safety amulet that her mother always carries with her; she would never mistake it!

Qiao Weiwei raised her hand to avoid Jiang Qianhui, and smiled gently: "Of course it was given to me by Yan Xun. Ayan said that he couldn't bear to see me always saying that I was inferior to your family, and he personally caused the downfall of the Jiang family. This is the spoils of war."

Something seemed to explode in Jiang Qianhui's mind. She grabbed a fruit knife from the fruit plate and pressed it tightly against Qiao Weiwei's neck. "I don't believe it! I don't believe it! Qiao Weiwei, what are you trying to do? I clearly agreed to divorce Zhan Yanxun, why are you telling me this?"

Qiao Weiwei was almost suffocating under Jiang Qianhui's pressure, but she still managed to show her signature smile: "Whether it's true or not, sister, you know in your heart. Cough...cough, why? Sister, haven't you heard that the best ex is the one who's dead?"

Qiao Weiwei reached out and pressed down on Jiang Qianhui's hand holding the knife. Her expression changed instantly, and she feigned tears, sobbing, "Sister... Sister, please don't kill me..."

Before Jiang Qianhui could react, an angry male voice came from the doorway.

"Jiang Qianhui, what are you doing? Let Weiwei go!"

Qiao Weiwei opened her round eyes, which were filled with tears: "Yan Xun, you have to leave quickly, my sister has gone crazy! Don't worry about me."

"Weiwei, don't be afraid. I'm here. I won't let anything happen to you."

Jiang Qianhui froze, then a smile suddenly bloomed on her face, but as she smiled, tears welled up in her eyes.

"Zhan Yanxun, I thought you were cold-hearted by nature, but I never expected you to be such a romantic. It's laughable that my two-year marriage couldn't warm your heart, and you even caused my family to be destroyed."

"I was so stupid, I shouldn't have gotten entangled with you!"

As Jiang Qianhui was overwhelmed with grief, the bloodstains on Qiao Weiwei's neck became increasingly abundant.

Suddenly, Qiao Weiwei screamed in agony, "Yan Xun!"

Before Jiang Qianhui could react, Zhan Yanxun fired a shot into her chest without hesitation.

Blood splattered and blurred Jiang Qianhui's vision.

Jiang Qianhui reflexively touched her lower abdomen, thinking, "I lost this baby again."

Jiang Qianhui felt that she deserved to die and that she was pathetic.

During her two years in the Zhan family, her mother-in-law bullied her, her sisters-in-law schemed against her, and her sister-in-law took advantage of her. She tried her best to be a good wife, hoping to make Zhan Yanxun fall in love with her.

Obsessed with her, she refused to let go and tried every means to frame his beloved.

But she forgot that love cannot be forced.

She really regrets it, wishing God could give her another chance.

She will never love him again.

I won't be so foolish again. I'm sorry, I'm sorry to Mom, Dad, and... Brother.
