dead person. Without you, I'll still live well." Shen Yi'an emphasized.Gu Cheng was stunned. He thought that by giving Shen Yian a step down, she would be grateful and shed tears of gratitude. Unexpe...At 4:57 PM, Shen Yian tidied her desk as usual, preparing to leave work. She didn't even bother to glance at her phone, which vibrated incessantly beside her.

My boyfriend, Gu Cheng, probably wants to talk about yesterday's wedding cancellation.

At 5:00 p.m., Shen Yian picked up his phone to clock out of work, when a text message popped up.

Ms. Shen, you have an outstanding balance of 157,321.61 yuan at the hospital. Please go to the first floor lobby of Building 3 as soon as possible to make the payment. Thank you. If you have any questions, please call 87*****.

Shen Yian clenched his phone tightly, then helplessly let it drop.

It's not that she doesn't want to, it's just that she really can't afford it.

A day in the ICU costing ten thousand, really emptied their entire family fortune. But her mother's illness couldn't be cured, there was only waiting for death.

Shen Yian was abandoned ten days after birth, it was her adoptive parents who gave her a new life. Her father's only wish before he died was for her to take good care of her mother.

So how could she possibly stand by and watch him die

With no other choice, she had to borrow money from her boyfriend Gu Cheng. Gu Cheng refused outright, saying he had no money.

She also didn't feel comfortable pushing too hard.

After all, Gu Cheng only proposed to her, he hasn't gotten married yet.

Yesterday, he boasted on his social media about his newly bought car worth several hundred thousand yuan.

At that time, Shen Yian stared at his Moments for more than a minute, and after coming to his senses, he called Gu Cheng.

He didn't explain, but instead talked on and on.

"Yi An, I bought this car for our marriage. This thirty-something thousand yuan is what I spent on you. I paid one hundred thousand in cash and took out a loan of two hundred twenty thousand. We will pay it back together later."

"Yian, when we get married, I'll sell your parents' little house and we'll buy a big one. My parents live in the countryside and it's time they came to the city to enjoy themselves. They haven't had it easy raising me, so as their daughter-in-law, you should understand."

"By the way, house prices in Haicheng are so expensive. When the time comes, I'll use my salary to pay off the mortgage, and your salary will be our family's living expenses. How about that I'll be understanding, right"

"Anyway, you won't have any relatives left in the future. Marrying me means we'll be taking care of each other as a family. A woman should be sensible and not demand too much."

Shen Yian was so angry that his whole body trembled.

Gu Cheng can not borrow money, but! His mother is still alive! He wants to run out of money.

Even her house was arranged meticulously. This plan was so clear, it could be heard even across half the city.

Shen Yian calmed himself down in three minutes and decisively refused Gu Cheng's marriage proposal of poverty alleviation.

"Gu Cheng, we're breaking up."

After three years together, it's not like she wasn't sad. But she wasn't stupid.

It's best to just let things go. She's busy dealing with her mother's medical expenses right now and doesn't have time to argue with Gu Cheng.

Thoughts swirling, Shen Yian shook his head, trying to shake off the unpleasantness.

As soon as she stepped out of the building, she noticed her colleagues were staring at her with strange looks.

Until Gu Cheng's voice came from across the way.

"Yi'an, I'm here to pick you up from work."

When Shen Yian heard the voice, he looked over. Gu Cheng was wearing a handsome suit and holding a rose bouquet by his new car, looking very charming.

All the surrounding colleagues watched Shen Yian with envy.

She, however, found the new car too ostentatious, as if it were mocking her three-year relationship compared to a vehicle.

Gu Cheng walked over with a smile, presenting the flowers to Shen Yian in front of everyone. There was an uproar from the crowd.

"Gu Cheng, you are so romantic, what about us single dogs"

Gu Cheng always cared about his reputation, and hearing the praise deepened the smile on his face.

"Yi An, here's a flower for you. I'll take you to see the new car I bought for you. From now on, I can pick you up and drop you off from work every day."

An exclamation arose from the crowd.

"Goodness, Yian, you're so lucky! Gu Cheng actually bought you a car. I hope my future boyfriend will be as good to me."

Of course, who am I to resist such a charming person like Yi'an

Gu Cheng's face was full of affection, but his eyes signaled Shen Yi'an to quickly take the flower, lest he lose face in front of everyone.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Yi'an didn't say a word, anger was all she could feel.

Gu Cheng is an outsider. His mother understands that it's not easy for him to work hard in Haicheng, so she doesn't ask him to buy a house, a car or a dowry when he gets married, she just asks him to treat her well.

Even knowing her mother is seriously ill, he doesn't even ask how she's doing and still wants to cut off ties with the family!

Now she's coming up with a pitiful persona, trying to make it seem like she's the victim. She's even blaming her for a 300,000 car! If anyone found out they broke up, they would all think she's ungrateful.

Shen Yian ignored the commotion and brushed past Gu Cheng.

Gu Cheng's smile froze, and he clenched Shen Yian's wrist tightly.

"Yian, stop acting like a child. I came here personally to apologize today, don't push your luck. There are so many people watching, wouldn't that be embarrassing"

The implication is that since he has lowered himself to send flowers, she should accept them unconditionally.

Shen Yian looked at Gu Cheng, feeling particularly strange.

Even after her mother fell ill, he insisted on marrying her. She thought she had found a good man and was lucky to have him.

But now she only hates herself for being blind and not seeing through his intentions sooner.

She glanced at the flowers in front of her and replied, "Gu Cheng, did you really buy the car for me"

Gu Cheng thought she had relented and smiled, "Of course, I'll be your personal driver from now on, picking you up and dropping you off no matter the weather."

When the little girls around him were drooling, Shen Yian directly poured a basin of cold water.

"Show everyone that ID and see whose name is on the car."

"...."

Gu Cheng pursed his lips and said nothing.

Those around him noticed the difference and urged, “Gu Cheng, didn't you buy a car for Yi An Take it out, so we can have a look.”

At that moment, Gu Cheng's face turned ashen.

Shen Yi said calmly, "It's a car you bought for yourself, but you insisted on saying it was bought for me. If that's the case, let's go through the transfer process tomorrow, how about that"

Once that was said, everyone understood Gu Cheng's intentions. Their gazes toward him changed.

Gu Cheng didn't want to lose face and awkwardly smiled: "Just kidding, we had a small disagreement, she's just being a little temperamental."

After he finished speaking, he frowned and glared at Shen Yian.

He whispered a warning, "Shen Yian, don't go too far. Besides me, who else would dare to marry someone like you with a child"

Shen Yian gritted his teeth, a layer of coldness covering his almond eyes.

"Rest assured, I will never marry you. Since you don't want a clean break, don't blame me for not giving you face."

"You..."

Before Gu Cheng could speak, Shen Yian turned to face his colleagues.

Everyone, Gu Cheng and I have broken up.

After saying that, Shen Yian walked towards the street corner without looking back.

Gu Cheng, furious, chased after Shen Yian and pulled her to the parking lot nearby.

"Shen Yian! Are you breaking up with me just because I didn't give you 100,000 yuan What about our three years together"

What does that mean

That's too bad for her!

"Yes! It's this hundred thousand! If I don't have the money, I won't marry you!"

Shen Yian hurried to the hospital to see his mother. He really didn't want to argue with him, so he just went along with what he said.

Gu Cheng just about to retort, the drivers of the cars around them honked their horns and stuck their heads out the windows.

"Excuse me, we're going to leave. Could you please move a little"

Us

Shen Yian, through the darkened car windows beside her, saw a tall figure in the back seat. However, the special-treatment glass prevented her from seeing the person's features.

The driver honked again, and she hurried out of the way.

The car drove away, revealing its logo and license plate.

Maybach, 11111.

What kind of person can afford to drive this car

Gu Cheng was also attracted to such an expensive car. Shen Yian took the opportunity to turn around and leave, and if she didn't leave, she would miss the subway in ten minutes.

But Gu Cheng still caught up, grabbing Shen Yian's hand tightly and persuading her with all his might.

"Yi'an, I know it was wrong of me to not let you know about buying the car in time, but you can borrow it whenever you want in the future."

Shen Yian listened and only felt amused. He shook his hand away with force.

“Borrowing Didn't you just say you were buying it for me So quickly changed your mind Do you really think I broke up with you just because of money It's because you're scheming against me! You don't want to lend money, that's understandable, it's your money. But you don't need to put the car money on my head! Be a person and don't try to have both sides!”

Shen Yian's words pierced through Gu Cheng, making his face even more unsightly.

"It seems my mother was right, you only want money to support your own mother! Aian, can't you be more realistic Your mother's illness will only drag you down. It would be better to let her die now. Then my parents will become your parents. You should treat them well and they'll treat you like their own daughter."

Hearing this, Shen Yian clenched his fist, enduring the nausea rising in his throat, and glared at Gu Cheng.

"Shut up! Go die! My mom won't die!"

"Gu Cheng, from beginning to end, I never forced you to marry me. You were the one who proposed to me. If you think my mother is a burden, you can break up with me, and I would respect your honesty. But you don't need to act differently behind my back and in front of me."

"Don't you know how your mother treats you She pampers you with delicious food and drinks, helps arrange your marriage without asking for a single penny from your family, yet you betray her trust and scheme to take over her house! Do you want to cut off all ties Your family's behavior is truly disgraceful!"

Shen Yian's words completely enraged Gu Cheng, and the moment he opened his mouth, his true intentions were exposed.

"Shen Yian, your mother treats me well because I have the ability! If she didn't fawn over me, just by looking at you, what kind of good man could you find"

"No need to bother." Shen Yian didn't even bother to look at him.

"You...forget it. I know you're angry, just calm down first. When you've calmed down, come find me and apologize. Otherwise, if you miss me, you'll never find a better man!"

Gu Cheng arrogantly shoved the flower into Shen Yi'an's hands and turned to leave in his car.

A sudden cool breeze blew over, waking Shen Yian completely. She tossed the flowers in her hand into the trash can and turned to run towards the subway station.

On the way to the hospital, she mustered her courage and thought about how to solve her mother's medical expenses.

Just when she was at her wit's end, her phone rang.

She is her old friend, Aunt Mo.

Auntie Mo is someone Shen Yian met on the subway. At that time, she was falsely accused by an elderly woman of bumping into her. It was Shen Yian who helped her clear her name.

After exchanging WeChat contacts, they found themselves getting along better and better. They would chat frequently and even make time to have meals and go shopping together. People often mistook them for mother and daughter, and in fact, Aunt Mo treated her like her own daughter, caring for her in every way.

Shen Yian picked up the phone before he could speak, he heard Mo Auntie's voice urgent.

"Yi An, come help me quickly."yes and a shrewd plan forming on her lips."Auntie, you're so kind. A-an will be very happy to have a caring mother-in-law like you. Unlike her ex-boyfriend's mother who came to our company and made a...
