Chapter 14: Shen Wanci, are you playing with me?

ink this way Pay back the money to Yu Cheng."Shen Wanci kept several curse words in her heart to maintain the surface calm. She didn't take the check he handed over, "I can pay this back myself."His g...Bo Jingzhou's sudden agreement to divorce was something Shen Wanci hadn't expected.

But it's also what she craves, isn't it

She smirked triumphantly, "Thank you, Mr. Bo, for letting me win."

She then turned and left the place, which she found unpleasant.

That night when she returned, Shen Wanci packed all the documents she needed for the next morning. But when she saw the photo on her marriage certificate, she couldn't help but be stunned.

This is the only photo they have taken together in their three years of marriage.

She stared at the man in the photo, his expressionless face stirring a bittersweet ache in her heart.

Fortunately, it's finally coming to an end, this draining and exhausting marriage.

She no longer had to sit every night in the empty living room, staring at the clock on the wall, wondering if her husband would return that night. She wouldn't feel her heart race at his careless touch only to find it was all wishful thinking.

Shen Wanci took one last look at the photo, nonchalantly putting the marriage certificate in her bag.

The next day, she woke up early. She had been tossing and turning all night, barely able to sleep.

At this moment, standing before the washbasin, looking at her reflection in the mirror, she had a pale and haggard face with two obvious dark circles under her eyes.

To appear more awake, Shen Wanci put on a heavier makeup look.

To avoid getting stuck in traffic, she left home early. As a result, her journey was smooth sailing, and she even didn't have to wait for many red lights before arriving at the Civil Affairs Bureau.

It was almost nine o'clock, still an hour to go. It seemed like even God thought their divorce was the right decision, as she could reach her destination so smoothly during rush hour.

It's the height of summer now, and at eight in the morning, the sun is scorching. Shen Wanci found a shady spot to stand and wait.

During this period, she received a WeChat message from Qin Yuezhi: "Wanwan, would you like me to accompany you"

She curled her lips, replying: 【No need, divorce isn't a brawl. I can handle it myself.】

The moment the message was sent, the phone rang. It was a call from the old Thin family residence.

Only Auntie Wang would call using this number, and what she has to say must be about Jiang Ya Zhu.

She frowned, a little reluctant to answer. Divorce was just around the corner, and she didn't want any more complications.

During the pause, the phone automatically hung up. Shen Wanci let out a slight sigh of relief, but soon Wang Yi called back.

Shen Wanci frowned, repeatedly calling her. Could something important have happened

Her heart skipped a beat inexplicably, she didn't have time to think too much and answered the phone: "Aunt Wang, what's the matter..."

"Madam, Madam fainted suddenly while she was just eating! Please come to the hospital quickly, the doctor said family needs to sign!" Wang Yi on the phone was so flustered she was almost crying.

Shen Wanci's face tightened, she hurriedly ran to the street to catch a cab, responding, "Okay, don't worry first, I'll be there soon!"

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the hospital entrance. Shen Wanci went to the emergency room as familiarly as she could.

Upon seeing her, Aunt Wang hurriedly rushed forward, still holding Jiang Yazhu's shawl in her hand.

"The wife fell asleep in the bathtub last night, and she probably caught a chill while bathing, which caused her sudden fever."

Since Jiang Yajue gave birth to Bao Jingzhou, she became as delicate as porcelain. Any slight disturbance would lead to illness, and it was always a sudden and severe one that caught people off guard.

Even a slight fever could send her to the brink of death.

Shen Wanci held her breath, wiped the sweat from her face, and asked again, "Did you call Bo Jingzhou"

Aunt Wang said she hasn't yet.

Shen Wanci wasn't surprised. Bo Jingzhou was usually busy with work and couldn't get away, so Aunt Wang was used to finding her directly when something happened.

But they were about to get divorced, and after that many things would have to be handled by Bo Jinhou immediately.

"Aunt Wang, you should call Bo Jinchou now..."

Before she could finish her words, the door of the emergency room swung open and a doctor walked out, "Family of Jiang Yajue"

"Dr. Shen Wanci rushed forward, "I'm here, doctor. How is my mother"

The doctor glanced at her, "The patient is temporarily out of danger and has been revived, but she's still in a coma... However, I recommend that you give the patient a thorough full-body checkup."

Hearing this, Shen Wanci's heart skipped a beat and she instinctively turned to look at Wang Yi beside her. Wang Yi turned around and went straight into the emergency room.

Shen Wanci asked again, "Doctor, is there something wrong with my mother's body"

"We can't say for sure until the results are in. Let's get you checked out as soon as possible."

The doctor left after finishing his words, but Shen Wanci still heard something was wrong…

Later, Jiang Yajiu was transferred to a general ward. Shen Wanci stayed by her side while Aunt Wang went back to cook some nourishing soup.

Looking at the frail woman on the hospital bed, Shen Wanci tidied up her disheveled hair.

In her eyes, Jiang Yajiu was like her mother. No matter what kind of relationship she had with Bo Jingzhou in the future, she would often visit the elderly.

As if awakening from a trance, Jiang Yajue came to.

She had low blood pressure and often fainted. Waking up in the hospital was already a common occurrence for her.

"Late Porcelain... This time, I'm troubling you again."

"Mom, don't worry. Are you feeling unwell anywhere I'll call a doctor to take a look..."

Jiang Yajiu held her hand, shaking her head. "Old habits, it'll be fine in two days."

Her gaze fell on Shen Wanci's made-up face, and she smiled and asked, "Wanci, you're so beautiful today. You should wear makeup like this every day. So pretty. Are you going on a date with Jingzhou"

Shen Wanci rarely wore such delicate makeup, but her naturally beautiful skin was even more stunning at this moment, captivating all who looked upon her.

She didn't say that today was the day she had made an appointment with Bo Jingzhou to get a divorce, for fear of upsetting Jiang Yajue, so she could only remain silent and say nothing.

Jiang Yazhu treated her silence as consent, overjoyed inside. "I'm fine," she said. "You two go have fun. Auntie Wang will be here soon, she can take care of me."

Shen Wanci held her hand, "Mom, since you're already hospitalized, let's get a full body check-up. It would put my mind and Jingzhou's at ease."

Hearing that she had to undergo a checkup, Jiang Yajiu subconsciously shook her head, showing some resistance to the idea.

But before she could speak, Shen Wanci's phone rang. Looking at the screen, it was Bo Jingzhou calling.

Shen Wanci picked up the phone just about to speak when she heard a man's suppressed angry question on the other end: "Shen Wanci, are you playing with me"manager about the following matters. I'll have Chen Xu give you his business card later."Does this mean we should stop looking for himHow much frustration is there, to even cut off this little bit of...
