He always told me, “Designer clothes and
bags are frivolous. I don’t like materialistic
girls. I know you’ll understand.”
But now he showered Han Xiaoxiao with
expensive gifts. The bags alone must have
cost $50,000. He wasn’t frugal; I just wasn’t
worthy…
Han Xiaoxiao saw me watching and smirked,
chin held high. She pouted at Chen Yun.
“Chen, I love this dress! Could you ask
Qianqian to give it to me?”
Chen Yun smiled at Han Xiaoxiao.
“Of course.” Then, he looked at me with a
sneer.
“Didn’t you say you wouldn’t regret it? Now
you’re here, looking for a wedding dress, like
a dog? Trying to force me into marriage with
your pregnant belly? It’s not going to happen.
I’m only marrying Xiaoxiao!”
I chuckled.
“Don’t worry,” I said coldly, “We’re over. And
I’m getting married soon. To someone else.”
He paused, then burst into laughter.
“Married? Hahahahaha! You’re delusional!
What idiot would marry a pregnant woman?”
I ignored him and told the sales associate,
“This is the dress I want. Here’s my card.

The sales associate hesitated, then nodded.
But Chen Yun stopped her.
“Wait.” He looked at me with disdain. “Did
you see the price? This dress costs $100,000!
A nobody like you can’t afford it. Even if
you’re trying to force a wedding, you should
at least choose a cheap dress.”
The sales associate looked at me
suspiciously. Chen Yun raised his chin higher.
He handed his card to the associate. “Charge
it to my card. I’ll take the dress.”
Han Xiaoxiao immediately told another
associate, “My husband paid for it, let’s go
try it on.”
I glanced at the dress Han Xiaoxiao was
touching, feeling disgusted. I didn’t want it
anymore. I took back my card.
“I don’t want the dress anymore. Give it to
them.”
I turned to leave, but Han Xiaoxiao wouldn’t
let me go. She grabbed my wrist, greed in her
eyes.
“Chen, this bracelet is beautiful! I want it!”
Chen Yun looked at me, his eyes on my jade
bracelet. His eyebrows rose.
“Xiaoxiao likes your bracelet, give it to her!”
I froze. His shamelessness had reached a new
level.
“If you give Xiaoxiao the bracelet,” Chen Yun
continued, “I’ll let you keep the baby. We’ll
raise him together.‘

A look of malice flashed in Han Xiaoxiao’s
eyes. But her greed overwhelmed her. She
reached for my bracelet..
“I agree, Qianqian. Give me the bracelet, and
I’ll raise your child like my own.”
Before I could respond, she tried to snatch it.
I angrily flung her hand away.
“Get lost! You’re not getting my bracelet!
And you’re certainly not raising my child!”
I tried to leave again, but Chen Yun grabbed
- me.
“Su Qianqian, who gave you the right to talk
to Xiaoxiao like that? I want that bracelet!
You’ll give it to me, whether you want to or
not!”
He tried to take it. He was strong, and I was

pregnant; I couldn’t fight back. None of the
sales associates intervened.
I made a decision. I let him take the bracelet.
