charged with fraud.”“...”Gu Cheng was dumbfounded.The crowd also fell silent, looking down on Gu Cheng's brand-name attire with disdain.Shen Yian thought over her sad matters carefully before she mana...At 4:57, Shen Yian tidied up her desk as usual, preparing to leave work. She didn't even bother to glance at her phone buzzing beside her.

It's Gu Cheng, my boyfriend. He must be here because of yesterday's wedding cancellation.

At five o'clock sharp, Shen Yian picked up his phone to clock out for the day 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 lobby on the first floor of Building No. 3 to pay as soon as possible. Thank you. If you have any questions, please call 87*****.

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

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

The ICU's daily ten thousand dollar cost really drained all their family's money, but her mother's illness was incurable and she could only wait to die.

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

So how could she possibly stand by and do nothing

With no other choice, she could only borrow money from her boyfriend Gu Cheng. Gu Cheng refused directly, saying he had no money.

She was also not embarrassed to push too hard.

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

Yesterday, he flaunted his new car, which cost him several hundred thousand yuan, on his social media.

At that time, Shen Yian stared at the Moments for more than a minute. After regaining his composure, he called Gu Cheng.

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

"Yi An, I bought this car to marry you! These thirty or so thousand yuan are what I spent for you. I paid one hundred thousand in cash and took out a loan for twenty-two thousand. We'll pay it back together from now on."

"Yian, when we get married, let's sell your parents' small house and buy a big one. My parents live in the countryside now and it's time for them to enjoy life in the city. They haven't had it easy raising me, so as your daughter-in-law, you should understand."

"By the way, with house prices in Haicheng being so expensive, I'll use my salary to pay the mortgage when the time comes. Your salary will be used as living expenses for our family. How about that I'll be considerate of you, right"

"Anyway, you won't have any family left in the future. Marrying me means we'll be taking care of each other. Women should be more understanding and not be too demanding."

Shen Yian was so angry that his whole body trembled after hearing this.

Gu Cheng could not borrow money, but! His mother is not dead yet! He wants to eat the family dry.

Even her house was arranged perfectly, this calculation could be heard clearly even from across half the city.

Shen Yian took three minutes to compose himself, and decisively rejected Gu Cheng's poverty alleviation marriage proposal.

"Gu Cheng, let's break up."

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

Let's just part ways amicably. She's currently busy with her mother's medical expenses and doesn't have time to argue with Gu Cheng.

Thoughts swirling, Shen Yian shook his head, trying to shake off these unpleasant feelings.

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

Until a sound came from across the way, coming from Gu Cheng.

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

Shen Yian looked over upon hearing the sound. Gu Cheng was in a handsome suit, holding a rose and leaning against his new car, looking quite suave and dashing.

Colleagues around were enviously looking at Shen Yian.

She, however, felt that the new car was too flashy, as if it were mocking her relationship of over three years being less valuable than a car.

Gu Cheng walked over smiling and presented the flower to Shen Yian in front of everyone. The crowd burst into cheers.

"Gu Cheng, you are so romantic, how can we single dogs handle this"

Gu Cheng always valued face, and upon hearing the praise, a smile deepened on his face.

"Yian, here's a flower for you. I'll take you to see the new car I bought for you. After this, I can drive you to and from work every day."

There was an outcry all around.

"Wow, 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 someone as charming as Ian"

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

Shen Yian remained silent, anger her only response. She didn't know what else to say.

Gu Cheng was an outsider. His mother, understanding his struggles in Haicheng, didn't require him to buy a house, a car, or a dowry upon marriage. She only asked that he treat her well.

Even though she knows her mother is seriously ill, he doesn't even offer a word of concern and still wants to cut off ties with the family!

Now she's playing the victim again, blaming her for a thirty thousand dollar car. If anyone found out about their breakup, they'd think she was crazy to let him go.

Shen Yi'an ignored the commotion and sidestepped Gu Cheng.

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

"Yī'ān, don't play childish tricks. I came here personally to apologize today. Don't push your luck. So many people are watching. Would it be embarrassing"

The implication is that since he went out of his way to send flowers, she should accept them unconditionally.

Shen Yian looked at Gu Cheng, feeling unusually strange.

Even after her mother fell ill, he insisted on marrying her. She thought she had found a good man.

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 asked back, "Gu Cheng, did you really buy the car for me"

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

When the little girls around him were all giggling, Shen Yian directly splashed a bucket of cold water on them.

"Let's take out the ID and show everyone whose name is on the car."

"...."

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

Gu Cheng pursed his lips and said nothing.

People around noticed something was amiss and urged, "Gu Cheng, didn't you buy a car for Yi An Bring it out, let us have a look."

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

Shen Yian said calmly, "Since you insist on saying it was bought for me even though it was bought for yourself, then let's go through the transfer process tomorrow. How about that"

Once those words were spoken, everyone understood Gu Cheng's intentions. Their gazes toward him shifted.

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

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 baggage"

Shen Yian gritted his teeth, a cold glint appearing in his almond eyes.

"Rest assured, I'd 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 finishing, Shen Yian walked toward the street corner without looking back.

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

"Shen Yian! Just because I don't give you 100,000 yuan, you want to break up with me What about our three years of love"

What is it

She's so unlucky!

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

Shen Yian hurried to the hospital to see his mother, not wanting to argue with him, so he simply went along with what he said.

Gu Cheng was about to retort when the horns of the cars beside them blared. The drivers rolled down their windows and stuck their heads out.

"Excuse me, we're leaving now, could you please move a little"

Us

Shen Yian, through the dark car windows beside her, noticed a tall figure in the back seat. However, the special treatment of the car window glass prevented her from seeing the person's appearance at all.

The driver honked again, and she hurriedly made 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 by such an expensive car. Shen Yian seized the opportunity to turn around and leave, otherwise she wouldn't catch the subway in ten minutes later.

But Gu Cheng still caught up, grabbing Shen Yian's hand tightly and trying his best to persuade her.

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

Shen Yian laughed, finding it ridiculous, and forcefully shook his hand away.

"Borrowing Didn't you just say you were buying it for me So fast, you're changing your mind again Do you really think I broke up with you just because of money It's because you're scheming against me! It's normal that you don't want to lend money, that's your money, but you don't need to put the cost of the car on my head! People shouldn't try to act both ways!"

Shen Yian's words made Gu Cheng's face even worse.

"It seems like my mom was right, you only want money to support your own mother! Yi'an, can you be more realistic Your mother's illness will only drag you down. You might as well let her die now. After that, my parents will be your parents. You should be filial to them, and they will treat you like their own daughter."

Hearing this, Shen Yian clenched his fists, gritting his teeth against the nausea rising in his throat as he 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'll respect your honesty. But you don't have to be two-faced. "

"Doesn't your conscience hurt My mother treated you so well, with delicious food and drinks, even discussing marriage without asking for a single penny from your family. Yet you are secretly wary of me while plotting to take over my mother's house! Do you want to cut off all ties with our family Your whole family is acting disgracefully!"

Shen Yian's words completely enraged Gu Cheng, and as soon as he opened his mouth again, 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 tell me, what kind of good man could you find"

"Don't 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 Yian's hand and then got in his car and left.

A cool breeze blew, waking Shen Yian completely. She threw the flowers in her hand into the trash can and ran 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 childhood friend, Aunt Mo.

Mo Auntie was someone Shen Yian met on the subway. She had been falsely accused of bumping into an elderly woman, and it was Shen Yian who helped her prove her innocence.

After exchanging WeChat contacts, they found themselves chatting more and more frequently. They would even make time to meet up for meals and shopping trips. People often mistook them for mother and daughter, but in reality, Aunt Mo treated her like her own child, caring for her in every way.

Shen Yi'an answered the phone, before he could speak, he heard Mo Auntie's voice in a hurry.

"Yi'an, come and help me quickly."ly at Song Lin."Don't you want some" Song Lin asked."Drink."Shen Yian took a sip of the milk and suddenly paused. The milk was cold, which instantly eased the dryness in her mouth from that night’s sl...
