Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

She had lived in the city since she was young and her family was fairly well-off. She had been like a pampered young lady. And what did Wang Guozhu have?

He was just a country bumpkin. If not for her, Zhou Hong, would that bastard be able to find work in the city?

He would still be tilling the fields in the village!

Considering the circumstances, how dare he betray her?

Zhou Hong could not take it lying down. In her eyes, she could abandon Wang Guozhu for someone else, because Wang Guozhu was not worthy of her. But Wang Guozhu had no right to betray her.

So she decided not to let Wang Guozhu off.

At first, she intended to drag things out for as long as possible. If that person paid her, she might as well get a few more months’ worth of payment.

But when Wang Guozhu said he would not divorce her anymore, she changed her mind.

How dare he?

She would make that bastard pay.

A lot of time had passed. She knew that if that woman was pregnant and still did not get married, someone would find out. In order to preserve himself and his job, Wang Guozhu would certainly ask the woman to have an abortion. Then Wang Guozhu would really refuse to divorce her. What would she do then?

So she decided to investigate and identify the woman. She would expose her and then Wang Guozhu and that woman would both be finished.

Then she would be free to marry whomever she pleased, and also receive a wave of sympathy.

So she had been tailing Wang Guozhu for the past few days. She was trying to find out who that woman was.

Today she had lost Wang Guozhu’s trail.

But ran into Gu Qingyao instead.

Gu Qingyao thought of a way to get her to a remote spot. She suddenly emerged from her interspace and jabbed her with her needles. Zhou Hong suddenly felt her body go numb and she collapsed onto the ground.

Gu Qingyao covered her head from behind with a cloth sack, then gripped the back of her neck.

Zhou Hong felt weak all over. She did not even have the energy to scream, but she could still force herself to speak.

“Who… who are you? What do you want?”

Gu Qingyao lowered her voice and made herself sound hoarse, so no one could tell if she was male or female.

She laughed softly. “Don’t worry. I won’t do anything to you. I’m the one who gave you money previously.”

Zhou Hong was taken aback. She immediately recalled the person who had told her that Wang Guozhu was having an affair. That person had asked her to drag out her marriage with Wang Guozhu and gave her a hundred yuan for each month of delay. During that time, she had received the money every month.

But she did not know who the person was.

Gu Qingyao said, “Are you still refusing to divorce Wang Guozhu?”

​ Zhou Hong was silent for a moment, and nodded.

Gu Qingyao said coldly, “Didn’t I tell you to just drag it out for a while? Who told you to carry on delaying the matter? Did you think I would continue giving you money?”

Zhou Hong started to shiver in fright. “I… I…”

She did not dare to say she did indeed want more money. After all, it was a hundred yuan a month!

It was equivalent to two months’ salary!

She received a hundred yuan a month for not doing anything. Where else could she find such a good deal?

She did not dare to say she wanted Wang Guozhu and that woman to both die, because she could not figure out the intentions of this person. She vaguely sensed that the other person did not want to drag this out to the bitter end.

Gu Qingyao did not waste words. She said bluntly, “Listen. When you get home, if Wang Guozhu brings up the divorce, you must relent. Allow his hope of a divorce to slowly grow. I can tell you that Wang Guozhu has already figured out a way to safeguard his child. But he won’t do so unless he has no other choice.

“If you agree to divorce him now, he will certainly agree. But if he settles the issue with the child, then no one can predict how it will turn out!”
