Shanqiu, Shanqiu, Shanqiu… I started to hate my own name
Eventually, I stopped having any expectations for ot married to a completely unfamiliar ex-coworker who said he really loved me
During the wedding reception, bothseveral thousand dollars worth of registry ive me a cent They told me in pretty words and phrases, ”You didn't have a job for two years, did you think that ere supporting you for free? Once you earn some money, then come back and ask us for it!”
Usingjob I had originally thought that even if there was no love in my life, I would still be able to live out my life peacefully, with a man who loved me by my side
However, I never iood to be true' dreams
”The house is filthy, don't you kno to clean it up a bit! Why did I even marry a woman like you who don't kno to do household chores? As a trophy to just stand there and look pretty?”

This again…
Unbelievable
It was as if she had been cursed, even a death couldn't change her mindset It was as if a woman's only reason for existence from birth was to marry a man and become his broodmare
It was like apart from this, 'a female life' was completely pointless
