After five years of a cold marriage, I can no longer hide the child I secretly gave birth to.

Zhou Yanci held a few sheets of paper in his hand, said indifferently that he was not interested, and walked towards the elevator.

Xu Daikui was originally going to take the elevator down, but when she saw the despicable couple, she chose to take the stairs instead.

After going downstairs, she found that Xu Jiaojiao and Zhou Yanci had just come out of the lobby. Xu Jiaojiao saw that she was carrying Shen Jun's clothes and smiled.

"Dai Kui, Dr. Shen has gone inside. Are you planning to take his clothes and reminisce over them? You two really have a deep relationship."

Xu Daikui had truly had enough of her. She glared at her coldly, "Do we even know each other? No one will think you're mute if you don't speak!"

"Tch, she's got quite a temper."

Xu Jiaojiao said with dissatisfaction, then looked at Zhou Yanci, "Aci, I bought two shirts, one for my dad and one for you. I think we should reciprocate."

Zhou Yanci's expression was indifferent. "No need to spend money."

Xu Jiaojiao said, "Okay then. I was just thinking that you always buy me jewelry and gifts, so I wanted to give you something in return."

Zhou Yanci smiled faintly, "No need. Just tell me what you want."

Xu Jiaojiao immediately beamed with joy, "Then you go ahead and get busy, I'm going to work too."

Hearing this, Xu Daikui left the hospital with a sense of utter irony.

Standing at the crossroads, she used her phone's navigation to find the nearest drug testing center.

Just as she was about to hail a taxi, a sudden wave of dizziness washed over her, and her vision went black. She instinctively staggered back a few steps.

Suddenly, a pair of hands firmly supported her, revealing the man's handsome and aloof features.

Her cheeks burned, and the memory of that passionate kiss they shared five years ago floated through her mind.

Damn it, she only smelled it for a few seconds, and it seems like she was also affected by the medicine.

The perfume was indeed defective.

She clenched her fingers tightly, shook her head violently, and in her hazy state of consciousness, she heard the man's cold voice.

"If you don't want to embarrass yourself in public, get on the bus."

She endured the discomfort and was half-dragged, half-supported by Zhou Yanci into the car. Still feeling a little dizzy, she leaned against the car seat and slowly closed her eyes.

.....

"I drank it."

I don't know how long I slept, but when I opened my eyes again, I saw the man's well-defined knuckles handing me a bottle of water and a pill.

As she hesitated, she realized that she had been out of her mind, and that most of her clothes had been pulled down at the neckline, revealing glimpses of her cleavage.

She quickly covered her chest and glared angrily at Zhou Yanci.

The man withdrew his gaze at just the right moment, a vague smile playing on his thin lips.

"If you don't take your medicine soon, it might flare up again."

He calmly offered his reminder.

Xu Daikui didn't think much of it and took the medicine and drank it with water.

As the cool liquid entered my body, the burning sensation in my chest slowly subsided.

"Did Shen Jun teach you to play such fancy tricks?"

Zhou Yanci's gaze swept over her undulating curves, and he chuckled.

Xu Daikui understood what he meant, coldly turned her body to the side, clenched her hands, and said, "The drug was given to him by someone else to frame him. He's not that kind of person."

"Lust at first sight...you don't understand men."

Zhou Yanci leaned back in his seat and said quietly.

"Ha, I can still tell the difference between a beast and a human. I believe in Shen Jun; he is the best man in the world."

She's infinitely better than a scumbag like him who cheats on his wife.

As Zhou Yanci listened to her words, the words Fu Minghao had said came to mind.

Once a woman has a child with her husband, she will love the child's father even more.

That's not entirely unreasonable.

Seeing that the man's handsome face darkened and he fell into a long silence after she finished speaking, Xu Daikui turned her head to look at him.

"Has the divorce agreement been signed? When will you give it to me?"

She really wants to cut off all contact with him as soon as possible.

This is the best thing for her and for Mengmeng.

Zhou Yanci's thin lips curled into a cold smile, and his voice deepened, "Xu Daikui, being my wife isn't something you can just divorce or marry as you please, as simple as just talking."

"Yeah?"

Xu Daikui couldn't help but laugh in anger, "A wife who has been living as a widow for five years, a wife who has been cuckolded for five years, it must be quite remarkable to be your wife, Zhou Yanci. You should invite someone else, I am not worthy of this."

As Xu Daikui spoke these words, a suffocating tightness inevitably spread through her heart.

Only she knows how pathetic, how humble, and how anxious she has been over the past five years.

He completely shattered her hopes for love and marriage, leaving her with nothing but a pile of mud.

Only now does she understand love…

It's optional.

Living the life of a widow?

Zhou Yanci scoffed, "You haven't been idle these past five years, have you?"

"Xu Daikui, Xu Jiaojiao and I are completely innocent. I'm not as casual as you, not feeling uncomfortable sleeping with anyone."

He said this while coldly turning his head away.

The air was thick with menace, making it hard to breathe.

Xu Daikui's brain short-circuited for a long time before she finally reacted.

Does he mean he and Xu Jiaojiao never slept together?

Does that mean they've been in a platonic relationship for all this time?

For a hot-blooded young man like him to be able to hold back like this shows how deeply he loves Xu Jiaojiao.

No wonder Xu Jiaojiao gets all the gold and silver she wants from him. If she wanted the stars in the sky, Zhou Yanci would probably build a ladder to pick them for her.

A cold laugh mingled with deep confusion in her eyes. "In that case, let's get a divorce. Out of sight, out of mind. Zhou Yanci, can't you just let me go?"

Meeting the woman's almost pleading eyes, Zhou Yanci's expression turned completely cold.

After a few moments of silence, his voice turned somber, carrying an almost imperceptible sense of disappointment.

"I'm not bothering you."

The coldness in his eyes acted like an invisible barrier, deeply isolating Xu Daikui.

A vast distance has long been built between them, making it impossible to cross it again.

"When will you sign? I need a definite answer."

Zhou Yanci withdrew his gaze from her, lowered his head and irritably loosened his tie, saying in a low voice, "Draft a new one and send it over."

That one is lost.

Xu Daikui frowned.

Why didn't you say it was lost sooner?

She was misled into thinking he was deliberately harassing her and unwilling to divorce him, thus wasting all her breath.

"it is good."

She nodded without hesitation.

Just as she was about to ask him if he had any special requirements regarding the contents of the divorce agreement, the man's indifferent voice came first.

"The car door wasn't locked. Goodbye."

Xu Daikui bit her lip, immediately picked up her bag and got out of the car, slamming the door shut with a deafening thud.

The other party seemed to despise her as well, and the car sped away in the blink of an eye.

Xu Daikui didn't care and turned around to go to the drug testing center. Sure enough, they found that the perfume on the white coat contained an excessive amount of aphrodisiac.

She took the test results and immediately went to the police station.

As they reached the door, they saw Shen Jun come out.
