Abusive Characters
Cracks of Light
Before we married, my husband had a girl who had spent five years chasing him with everything she had, but he fell for me at first sight.
Three years later, that girl returned to the country, successful and famous. She was now an internationally renowned photographer, dazzling and breathtakingly beautiful.
As for me, I was a stay-at-home mom, weighing over 130 pounds, with nothing to show for myself.
At a gathering, someone teased Lu Huaixu.
“Qin Shuang is still a virgin for your sake…”
He snapped at the person immediately, “Don’t talk nonsense!”
But that night.
He stayed out on the balcony, smoking for the entire night.
After the Neighbor Borrowed My Life
Over the weekend, while I was out grocery shopping, someone shoved a red envelope into my hand.
Inside was a note: [Three years of your life have been borrowed. If you pass this on or drop it in a merit box, your entire family will perish.]
Clutching the 900 yuan, I chuckled and chased after the person.
“Are you sure you want to try life‑borrowing from me?”
She shot me a glare, barked “Psychopath!” and spun around to bolt.
I couldn’t help but smile. To think someone actually had the nerve to try life‑borrowing from one of the Living Dead.
The Silent Suspect
On the day my stepsister was murdered.
I told my dad and the police that I had gone to school to do homework, that I hadn’t been home, and that I really didn’t know what had happened.
But the truth was, I lied.
Better Not to Meet
My sister has hated me for twenty years. She once told me to my face that it would be better if I just died.
So, just as she wished, I was diagnosed with stomach cancer.
My Brother’s Girlfriend
I died of a sudden asthma attack while being bullied.
My family sent my bruised and battered body straight to the incinerator; no one went to my school to demand justice for me.
Later, my brother started dating the girl who bullied me.
He turned her into the blade he would use to avenge me.
Green Grapes
When I was sixteen, the Zhou Family bought me to be a breeder for their lame son, Zhou Yuqing, to bear him children.
Though the agreement was for me to arrive in June, I reported to the Zhou Family in March.
I did this for two reasons: first, to save my own family some grain, and second, to leave a good impression on my future master.
But Zhou Yuqing despised me for being a country bumpkin and called me stupid.
He said I wasn’t nearly as delicate or pretty as Miss Su next door.
Even as he shared my bed, he looked down on me for being dirty.
“You must bathe four times with green jasmine and white champaca, then comb your hair with osmanthus oil. Miss Su uses osmanthus oil-have you got that through your head? ”
“If you serve me well next time, this young master might just grant you a formal title.”
I nodded, scrubbing myself with a loofah until I nearly rubbed my skin raw.
Suddenly, someone grabbed me by the scruff of the neck and hauled me, dripping wet, out of the tub.
It was Madam Liu, the broker who had sold me. She was in a frantic rush as she dragged my naked, fragrant body toward the door.
“Good heavens! It’s all wrong, all wrong! It wasn’t the Zhou Family who bought you-it was the Zou Family!”
Stars Without End
I chased after He Chenyi for six years, coming whenever he called, leaving whenever he waved me away.
While he was holding another woman and drinking a wedding toast, I was diagnosed with Leukemia at the hospital, with only three months left to live.
Later, he knelt by my hospital bed, crying and begging me to accept a bone marrow transplant.
How ridiculous. I never even wanted to live.
The CEO’s Runaway Bride
I had been married to the heir of the Jiang Group for two years, and during that entire time, he had treated me with nothing but cold indifference.
Then, in the middle of the night, I got out of bed to use the bathroom when he suddenly grabbed my hand.
I turned around to find the man before me with the corners of his eyes flushed a faint red, his voice trembling.
“Shen Tingwan, are you trying to leave me behind again?”
Black Koi
My sister has a Koi Birthmark on her face.
After receiving her blessing, my father won five million in the lottery, and my mother regained a stunning, slender figure.
I was the only one who wanted nothing from her.
Because I knew that what was on my sister’s face was a Black Koi.
Whatever you take from her, you must pay back double.
Surrender
During the first week of the semester, I frequently dreamed of two men. Both of them claimed to be my boyfriend.
I woke up every morning with my entire body aching, so I went to see a psychiatrist.
“It’s just too much stress. Don’t be nervous.”
He gave me a mild smile and prescribed some medication. “Take these, and you’ll fall asleep much earlier.”
Later, I realized the dreams were only getting longer.
In the dream, the other man pinned my hands down and chuckled.
“I told you to keep the dosage small. If it lasts too long, she won’t be able to handle it.”
