“How can this be!” Lin He covered her mouth in anguish, not allowing herself to make a sound.

Her tears quickly moistened her hand, and there was a ringing in her ears, making her unable to hear anything at all.

Mei Shu opened her eyes and leisurely enjoyed the sight of Lin He’s crumbling expression. She then slightly parted her lips and asked, her voice cold and mocking, “Your husband has cheated and visited prostitutes multiple times after marriage, but you’ve turned a blind eye, unwilling to acknowledge it. Now that you know everything, what do you plan to do?”

Lin He looked at her in despair, her eyelashes trembling as a tear of hopelessness fell. “Who are you? How do you know so much about my family?”

Mei Shu raised an eyebrow and sneered mercilessly. “As you know, the people in Lin City are either wealthy or prominent. Anyone living in the Royal District must be well-off. As long as I’m willing to pay, there will naturally be people willing to investigate and find out everything 1 want to know.”

Lin He sobbed and reluctantly accepted her explanation. “So, you approached me with ulterior motives, right? Is that woman inside also one of your ploys to seduce my husband?”

Mei Shu furrowed her brows, then suddenly handed her a room key card, responding to a different question, “Do you want to go in and witness what they’re doing up close?”

The ambiguous sounds from the room were growing louder.

Lin He desperately shook her head, resisting the urge to leave while leaning against the wall.

The moment she heard her husband’s words, all the strength drained from her body. If she hadn’t held onto the wall, she would have probably collapsed on the floor.

Mei Shu watched her leave with a blank expression, making no move to stop her. However, she relentlessly questioned from behind, “What are you afraid of? Will he not betray you if you go back now and pretend not to hear anything? Will he not abandon you to another man?”

Lin He’s body suddenly quivered, and pain overwhelmed her, forcing her to bend over and clutch her aching stomach, her figure forlorn and disheveled.

“What can I do… I don’t know what to do…”

She choked, her tears streaming down, creating large puddles on the floor.

Mei Shu slowly approached her, her voice as cold as ever. “What are you really afraid of? Are you afraid that if you leave him, you won’t have the means to survive?”

“No…” Lin He helplessly shook her head.

Mei Shu continued, “I’ve investigated you. You’re a university graduate with a degree in finance. During your time at university, you met Zhou Nan, who worked in a bar. You fell in love at first sight, and after you graduated, you married him. You even gave up your profession for him, opting not to enter the workforce and becoming a full-time housewife. But your married life was far from happy.”

“Stop it!” Lin He’s face was filled with pain as she covered her ears and mumbled incessantly.

Mei Shu pried her hands away and continued speaking, “You and Zhou Nan have been married for a while but haven’t had any children. After medical tests, it was revealed that you’re naturally infertile. Since then, Zhou Nan’s attitude towards you has changed drastically, and he began physically abusing you. His mother also insulted and physically attacked you, but you’ve always believed it was your fault, so you never fought back.”

“Please stop, 1 beg you, please…”

Mei Shu released her hands and gazed at the sobbing woman before her with pity. “Before I met you, I had a dream.”

“A dream?” Lin He had cried so much that she had lost the ability to think, asking mechanically as she tilted her head.

Mei Shu’s gaze gradually became distant. “Yes, in the dream, there was a girl just like you. She wasn’t liked by her family and believed everything was her fault. She tried desperately to please everyone, but her father married her into a sadistic man.”

“And then?” Lin He stopped crying and asked in a hushed voice.

Mei Shu answered calmly, “Then she died, tortured to death. That man had no male abilities, so he took pleasure in beating her every day to satisfy his sadistic desires. She never thought of resisting, believing that her family would come to save her, but in the end, her sacrifices led to a tragic fate for all those who cared about her.”

Lin He lowered her hands slowly, her face completely lifeless. “If that girl had resisted back then, would she be better off now?”

“Perhaps she would, or perhaps she wouldn’t,” Mei Shu responded candidly. “That girl never had the opportunity to go to college, and her resistance might have only led to more brutal beatings. Or maybe she would have killed that man and lived a fugitive’s life, but no one would have dared to bully her again.”

“But both paths were dead ends.” Lin He thought desperately.

She wished someone could come to the girl’s rescue, helping her break free from the inescapable quagmire, and offering her a brighter third option.

Unfortunately, that girl hadn’t found a savior and had lost her precious life. contemporary romance
