Although Ji Qingqing knew that Lu Liting had shown a twisted personality later in the novel, she hadnât expected he would say something like that!
âLu Liting, let me tell you. Dumping you was the best decision I ever made! I wonât regret it!â
Ji Qingqing shoved him away and walked towards Lu Lixingâs room. Lu Liting was left standing there with a gloomy expression.
Inside Lu Lixingâs room, the curtains were closed in hopes that it would help Lu Lixing sleep better.

Ji Qingqing quietly walked over to Lu Lixingâs bed and sat down next to it. Seeing that Lu Lixing was deeply asleep, she sighed.
She had thought that by marrying into the Lu family, she would rid herself of worries for the future. Unexpectedly, she had walked into a wolfâs den. Right now, Lu Lixing was alive and so was Elder Lu, so Lu Liting wouldnât dare to do anything to her. But, later on, once these two people passed away, she would probably reach rock bottom.
Lu Liting wasnât wrong. Elder Lu wouldnât let her inherit Lu Lixingâs accumulated wealth. Those assets belonged to the Lu family and would be inherited by a blood-related member of the Lu family. And so, eventually, that wealth would fall into Lu Litingâs hands.
âIt would be so great if you could continue to liveâŚâ Ji Qingqing was a very empathetic person. It was easy for her to put herself in someone elseâs shoes. It would be great if Lu Lixing didnât die. Although she and Lu Lixing had no feelings for each other, if Lu Lixing was around, Lu Liting wouldnât dare to act outrageously towards her.
Before she had transmigrated into the novel, she had dedicated her life to her messed up family. She had worked so hard in the first part of her life. And now, she had to clean up the mess created by the supporting female character, who had done a multitude of bad deeds. Ji Qingqing felt sad enough to want to die. These were her true feelings. She almost cried.
âLu Lixing, how about this? Iâll give you half of my life. Please donât die.â
Lu Lixing wasnât actually asleep. He had been lying in bed and waiting for his death.
What was the point in living another day? He had lived for almost thirty years, but not a single day had been his to do as he pleased.
When he was younger, in addition to doing arduous schoolwork, he had to learn extra skills whether or not he liked them.
Those skills had been called his hobbies. But, how can they be his hobbies when he didnât like them at all?
As an adult, he was responsible for the Lu familyâs enterprise. His parents had died while he was young, and his younger brother had left home. His old grandfather could only rely on him.
Everyday, he had to mediate the major and minor conflicts that came up at work. There was never a carefree day for him.
Lu Lixing was mentally and physically exhausted.
The month after his car accident could be considered the most leisurely period of time in his life.
Actually, passing away in his sleep didnât sound too bad. Lu Liting was back, so there would be someone to take care of his grandfather and the family business.
As for his weeping wife, Lu Lixing felt that maybe he owed her a big debt in his past life. Or, perhaps, there was enmity between them in a past life. She wanted him to live so badly. To the point that she was willing to give him half of her life!
âYou want me to live that badly?â
