Chapter 1: I donated a kidney to save you, but you want a divorce.
Under a sky overcast with dark clouds, a cool breeze carried a chill.
Liu Yue pushed Ye Cheng along the park path, her heart as heavy as the weather.
"Ye Cheng, let's...get a divorce. You can have all the assets."
Liu Yue's voice was completely flat, as if she were talking about something insignificant.
Although Ye Cheng had already sensed it and had prepared himself mentally in advance.
But now that Liu Yue has said it herself, his heart still aches a little.
After all, Liu Yue had once made a solemn vow to never leave him and to take care of him for the rest of her life.
How ironic it is now, just as confidently they made those promises back then!
Thinking back to Ye Cheng's younger days, he was a dashing and spirited young man, a star figure at school.
At that time, Liu Yue came from a poor family, her studies were mediocre, and she was thin and frail, far from being as beautiful as she is now.
Those who have been rained on are better at holding an umbrella for others. Ye Cheng, who grew up in an orphanage, has a kind heart. After learning about Liu Yue's situation, he took the initiative to lend a helping hand.
He not only tutored Liu Yue in his spare time, but also gave Liu Yue the money he earned from part-time jobs.
We will ensure that Liu Yue graduates from university with excellent grades.
Just as a rope always breaks at its thinnest point, misfortune always seems to befall those who are destined for hardship.
Not long after graduation, Liu Yue, full of ambition, suddenly fell seriously ill and her life was in danger. She needed a healthy kidney transplant to recover.
Ye Cheng was a match and donated his exceptionally resilient kidney to Liu Yue without hesitation, giving her a new lease on life.
In theory, one kidney is enough to meet the needs of survival, but Ye Cheng became extremely weak as a result, his mobility was limited, and he could only rely on a wheelchair.
When Liu Yue said she wanted to marry Ye Cheng, Ye Cheng strongly opposed it.
He didn't need Liu Yue's repayment, feeling it went against his original intention of helping her. He only hoped that Liu Yue could live a wonderful life of her own.
However, Liu Yue felt guilty and believed that she could only repay Ye Cheng's life-saving grace by marrying him, so she threatened to kill herself.
Ye Cheng had no choice but to accept Liu Yue's offer, and the two became husband and wife.
But Ye Cheng couldn't bear to see Liu Yue suffer because of him, so he used his wisdom to share their story online.
Their poignant love story not only garnered them a large following but also made them famous in Hedong City.
Liu Yue has become a highly popular internet celebrity due to her outstanding looks.
But as the saying goes, "a long illness tests filial piety," let alone two people who are not related by blood.
No matter how great the kindness, it cannot withstand the relentless erosion of time.
As Liu Yue's career soared, her feelings for Ye Cheng gradually cooled.
Even seeing Ye Cheng, who was unable to perform his duties and was confined to a wheelchair every day, filled him with utter despair.
This is not the life she longed for.
Finally, encouraged by those with ulterior motives, Liu Yue forgot her vows of eternal love.
Before this, Ye Cheng thought Liu Yue was a good girl he could entrust his life to, and decided to make it up to her properly after he fully recovered and give her a grand wedding.
Unfortunately, people's hearts are fickle, and Liu Yue couldn't wait until that day.
"Since you've made up your mind, then let's get a divorce," Ye Cheng said calmly.
Liu Yue thought Ye Cheng would become hysterical and accuse her of being ungrateful.
I never expected Ye Cheng to agree so calmly.
This suddenly made Liu Yue feel uncertain.
Do you think we can be considered a married couple?
As you know, I'm about to face new challenges and won't have time to stay by your side.
I will hire the best nanny to take care of your daily needs.
Ye Cheng sighed: "Does this make you feel better?"
I told you three years ago, you didn't need to do this at all.
But Liu Yue felt that Ye Cheng's words were due to his pride: "Stop pretending, okay?"
To a sensitive person, everyone is sensitive.
Ye Cheng was too lazy to explain.
"Let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau."
Liu Yue breathed a sigh of relief: "There's one more thing I hope you can agree to."
Ye Cheng turned to look at Liu Yue, a cold smile on his lips: "Do you want me to issue a statement in the live stream saying that divorcing you was my idea?"
Liu Yue, whose purpose had been guessed, was momentarily at a loss for what to do.
Disgust was evident in Ye Cheng's indifferent eyes. He really had his cake and eat it too!
"Let's go, hurry up, I'll see this through to the end."
Ignoring her guilt, Liu Yue pushed Ye Cheng back home and started the live streaming app.
Facing the camera, Ye Cheng calmly said, "Good morning, friends. I have something to tell you all today."
After much deliberation these past few days, I no longer wish to burden Liu Yue and have decided to let go.
She's in the prime of her youth; she shouldn't sacrifice herself for me.
Thank you all for your support over the past three years. I hope you will continue to support Liu Yue in the future.
Suddenly, Liu Yue appeared in front of the camera with tears in her eyes, gently stroking Ye Cheng's shoulder, her acting skills comparable to those of a professional actor.
The comments in the live stream were scrolling rapidly, filled with voices supporting Liu Yue.
"Smart move."
"Liu Yue deserves better!"
"Wishing Liu Yue happiness!"
Ye Cheng glanced at the overwhelmingly supportive comments for Liu Yue and scoffed inwardly. It seemed that the top-ranked fan had hired a lot of online trolls for Liu Yue!
He reached out and stopped the live stream, looking at Liu Yue with disappointment: "Why are you crying?"
You can't bear to get a divorce?
Then we won't get a divorce.
Liu Yue stared at Ye Cheng in astonishment, her heart filled with anxiety. Had she overacted just now?
Ye Cheng shook his head speechlessly, all his goodwill towards Liu Yue vanished: "Let's go, this is also a kind of relief for me."
Outside the Civil Affairs Bureau, Liu Yue handed the divorce certificate to Ye Cheng: "I'll leave the property and savings to you, and I'll leave with nothing."
Just as Ye Cheng was about to refuse, a luxury car pulled up, and Wu Hao, a handsome and wealthy young master, stepped out.
This wealthy young man is the top spender in Liu Yue's live stream.
Ye Cheng was not surprised by his appearance at all, and even knew that Liu Yue had filed for divorce because of this top-ranking friend.
At this moment, Wu Hao, holding a red rose in his hand, walked up to Liu Yue with a smug look on his face: "Darling, congratulations on finally being free."
Liu Yue glanced at Ye Cheng, her face showing embarrassment: "Young Master Wu, what brings you here?"
Wu Hao glanced at Ye Cheng with a playful look, took out a sparkling diamond ring from his pocket, and knelt on one knee: "Liu Yue, marry me!"
Liu Yue covered her red lips in surprise: "Young Master Wu, please don't do this, I just got divorced."
Wu Hao laughed wildly: "I know, that's why I proposed to you."
Don't tell me you still have feelings for that useless person?
Liu Yue looked at Wu Hao with tender affection and patiently explained, "Young Master Wu, Ye Cheng and I are like siblings..."
"Stop!" Ye Cheng rubbed the goosebumps on his arms. "What siblings? You're older than me. Besides, from now on, you go your way and I'll go mine."
Wu Hao thought Ye Cheng was just saying things out of anger, and mocked, "What's there for a cripple to be arrogant about? Just name your price for compensation."
At this moment, a beautiful woman walked up to Ye Cheng, her gaze falling on the divorce certificate in his hand. Without hesitation, she pushed the wheelchair and took him away.
Ye Cheng turned around in surprise to look at the woman, and saw a face that was both aloof and gentle, like a fairy under the moon.
Her skin was as white as snow, and her long hair cascaded down like a waterfall. It was black, shiny, and smooth, swaying gently with her movements and exuding a captivating fragrance.
She wore a white short-sleeved shirt, the silhouette beneath which was so delicate it was almost impossible to grasp, subtly revealing a natural yet dignified voluptuous beauty.
The shaping jeans hugged her long, slender legs, making her appear exceptionally tall.
Upon seeing the woman's face clearly, Ye Cheng was instantly taken aback, his mind filled with questions: "What is she doing here?"
"Shen Qingrou!" Wu Hao recognized the woman and exclaimed in astonishment, "That cripple knows Shen Qingrou?"
Liu Yue shook her head, feeling quite bitter. She was pretty, but compared to Shen Qingrou, she was like a celestial being compared to a country bumpkin.
"You probably... don't know him, right?"
In her mind, Ye Cheng, whose movements were restricted, had no chance to contact people outside.
Not to mention he knew Shen Qingrou, the most beautiful woman in Hedong City.
But things didn't go as planned. For some reason, Ye Cheng had been secretly keeping an eye on this heiress.
They knew she was the apple of the eye of the chairman of the Shen Group.
He is also a top student who graduated from Beijing University, the premier university in China.
The most controversial and influential figure in Hedong City.
What Ye Cheng didn't expect was that he would meet Shen Qingrou in this way.
“We don’t know each other, why did you push me into the Civil Affairs Bureau? I just came out of there.”
Shen Qingrou's behavior at this moment left Ye Cheng bewildered and even somewhat panicked.
Shen Qingrou gave an irrelevant answer: "Do me a favor."
Ye Cheng was still somewhat self-aware, and pointed to the wheelchair: "What can I do to help you in this condition?"
Shen Qingrou looked straight ahead and calmly said, "Marry me."
"!!!"
Ye Cheng's mind went blank. What's wrong with this world? Why do people always want to marry me?
