When Chu Yi saw the content of the text message, she felt as though her blood had frozen.

“Wan Yan” she finally remembered the name. She had been wondering why the name sounded so familiar, and now she realized it was her husband whom she had only met once.

The two of them had met for less than ten minutes. Other than remembering that Wan Yan was tall and handsome, she could not remember anything else.

After all, he married her because of his family’s request. As expected, he wanted a divorce as soon as he returned. Chu Yi didn’t know how to feel about it.

Even though they didn’t have any feelings for each other, Chu Yi still felt a little sad.

He hadn’t contacted her for a year and now that he was back, he wanted a divorce. How much did he hate her?

Xu Yin saw Chu Yi’s pale face and how she stood frozen. She quickly walked over to her and asked, “Chu Yi, what’s wrong? Who sent you that message?”

Chu Yi stared at her phone, and Xu Yin couldn’t help but glance at it.

“Wan Yan? Wasn’t he the one who called you last time?” Xu Yin suddenly remembered that there was indeed a man named Wan Yan who had called Chu Yi that day. “Your husband’s name is Wan Yan?”

Chu Yi nodded. She had only remembered his name just now.

She had never mentioned Wan Yan’s name to Xu Yin and Tian Peng, so they naturally didn’t know who he was.

“He disappeared for a year and didn’t care about you. Now that he’s back, he wants a divorce. What kind of person is he?” Xu Yin was a little angry.

When Chu Yi saw the word “divorce,” she twitched the corners of her mouth. She wanted to tell Xu Yin that it was nothing and that she could accept it, but she was still at a loss for words.

Tian Peng also approached, and Xu Yin whispered to him what had happened. Tian Peng looked at Chu Yi and felt heartbroken.

This wasn’t the first time Chu Yi had been abandoned.

Back then, Chu Yi had a good boyfriend named Yuan Hong. He was the young master of the Yuan family and was quite handsome, so he was quite famous in school.

He had also put in a lot of effort to win Chu Yi’s heart. Eventually, the two of them became a couple. At that time, they were even rated as the top ten immortal couples in the school.

At the time, Xu Yin was envious of Chu Yi for having such a great boyfriend. Yuan Hong was not only good-looking and well-connected, but he was also kind to Chu Yi.

However, after Chu Yi had an accident, Yuan Hong was the first to abandon her. He didn’t bother to ask for the reason, nor did he offer her any comfort. Instead, he even helped others suppress her.

The matter became a huge scandal, and although it happened in Chu Yi’s hometown, many people knew about it. No one in her family supported Chu Yi, so she decided to find a lawyer to sue these people.

Xu Yin and Tian Peng had always supported her. When they thought about how Yuan Hong’s family was powerful, Xu Yin had even taken the initiative to ask Yuan Hong to help Chu Yi. As long as the Yuan family helped, this matter would be resolved.

She thought that Yuan Hong would definitely help Chu Yi since he was her boyfriend. However, Yuan Hong chose to side with the others and dissuaded Chu Yi from reporting the incident to the police.

“You think this isn’t embarrassing enough? How can you even face returning to school?”

“If you call the police, it’s equivalent to letting the whole country know about your scandal.”

“Now that the school is going to expel you because of this, why are you still making a fuss? Besides, let me tell you, we’re done. Our Yuan family is prestigious in S City. Your behavior has disgraced me.”

“From now on, you are no longer my girlfriend. Get as far away from me as possible! Don’t even claim to know me.”

In the end, Chu Yi did not successfully report the incident to the police, it was also because of Yuan Hong’s obstruction. She became notorious both in her school and hometown.

Since then, Chu Yi had been silent. In order to prevent herself from having nightmares, she did not sleep every day and only sat on the bed.

In order to prevent Chu Yi’s incident from affecting him, Yuan Hong went abroad to study after two weeks.

This time, she was completely abandoned. Although she didn’t express it, both Xu Yin and Tian Peng knew how much she resented the man who had abandoned her. She no longer believed in love.

She had thought that, in their flash marriage, they wouldn’t interfere with each other. But she hadn’t expected him to abandon her.

“Chu Yi, don’t be sad. Men are all the same. It’s not worth it for such a person! He might be a big liar. He wanted a divorce because he failed to cheat money and women. He was not a good person either!” Xu Yin scolded while patting Chu Yi’s back.
