Chapter 193: Your Sister Will Hate You
"Darling, why are you crying?" Seeing Ai Ni’s constant tears, he looked completely baffled. He pulled her into his arms, putting on an act of concern. "Darling, are you not feeling well? Should I take you to the hospital?"
Ai Ni wiped away her tears and smiled. "It’s nothing. I just think you work so hard and never have time to come home for dinner. Since I’m just idle at home anyway, I’ve decided I’m going to start working at the office tomorrow."
The man’s expression changed at her words, and his voice suddenly shot up. "That’s ridiculous! What do you mean, go to work? Can’t you just stay home and enjoy a comfortable life?"
But Ai Ni replied, "I want to help share your burden; I don’t mind if it’s hard work. Didn’t you say last time that the company’s finances weren’t adding up? Well, it just so happens I have a classmate from college who studied finance. She’s a top talent in the industry and recently became unemployed. I’ve already notified HR to have her start tomorrow."
...
In Shen Zhiyao’s livestream chat, a group of fans was having a heated discussion:
[Ladies, don’t let love blind you! When a man says he wants to be DINK, the only one who ends up childless in the end is the woman!]
[If a man really wants to be DINK, make him get a vasectomy. Don’t ever trust a man who just says it with his words!]
[Streamer, I want to know if Ai Ni’s scumbag husband will get his just deserts in the end!]
[I really want to know too! Streamer, just tell us! Pretty please!]
[Even though Ai Ni is love-brained, she’s bearing the consequences that come with it. But the scumbag hasn’t gotten his due. It’s an injustice!]
[Everyone cussing him out in the chat right now is a woman, right? From a man’s perspective, he just made a small mistake that every man makes. It’s not like he deserves to die for it, right?]
[That’s fucking bullshit! Then what about Chen Sheng’s wife from earlier? Why don’t you say she just made a small mistake that every woman makes? If you can’t apply the same standard, then shut your trap, okay?]
[Right! Exactly! Chen Sheng’s wife just made a small mistake that every woman makes!]
[...]
Seeing how curious everyone was about what happened next, Shen Zhiyao said, "Although Ai Ni is not fated to have children, her financial fortune is quite good. This means she won’t suffer any losses when it comes to money. After the divorce, she will use her money to sponsor the education of students from poor families. The children she sponsors will all be of good character, and after they grow up, they will visit Ai Ni often, treating her like their own birth mother."
Hearing this, the viewers who had been furiously cursing Ai Ni’s husband fell silent in an instant. The chat began celebrating Ai Ni for cutting her losses in time.
Shen Zhiyao said, "Let’s draw our final reading for the day."
The third lucky viewer appeared on the phone screen.
The beautiful young woman who appeared this time was called "Shan Yi."
The moment she appeared, a crowd of viewers recognized her.
[AHHHH! You’re that huge influencer, Shan Yi! Holy crap, I’m your fan! Can I have an autograph?]
[Damn, you’re as gorgeous as ever! I’m so envious of your face. Bro, let me borrow your face for a bit!]
[There’s no point in a guy being this beautiful. Just let me use that face!]
[Mom, hurry and give me an autograph! I’ve liked you since I was in middle school!]
[The hell you mean, ’mom’?! Person above, stop trying to claim family ties. He’s a man, is that someone you should be calling ’mom’? You act as if you’re so familiar with Shan Yi!]
Shan Yi smiled and greeted everyone. "Hi, everyone. I’m Shan Yi. You probably all recognize me. I’m a beauty blogger, and I’m always updating the content on my account! Thank you all for your continued support. I hope that today you can drop the filters, because I’m here for a fortune-telling!"
He was exceptionally beautiful, but when he opened his mouth, a man’s voice came out. The people in the livestream who knew of him were already used to it.
Before he could say anything, Shen Zhiyao spoke first. "Shan Yi, real name You Lechun. You were diagnosed with terminal liver cancer half a year ago. Go on, what do you want a reading on?"
"You’re truly worthy of your reputation, Streamer. You can see everything!" You Lechun coughed a couple of times and began to tell his story.
You Lechun was born in Hai City. His parents abandoned him when he was very young, and he and his older sister had only each other to depend on.
From a young age, he and his sister grew up in an orphanage, where they were often bullied by the other children.
Later, his sister got into the university of her choice and successfully escaped the orphanage. The first thing she did after graduating was take him out of the orphanage as well.
After that, he learned how to do makeup and gradually became a social media blogger.
His sister, meanwhile, became an attending physician at a Class-A traditional Chinese medicine hospital.
Three years ago, he tearfully sent his sister off to be married.
He had thought his sister would find happiness, but all that awaited her were endless beatings.
In the beginning, his brother-in-law treated his sister very well.
But ever since his sister got pregnant, that man started to change. He brought other women home while she was pregnant and even beat her during her postpartum confinement...
Now, he only had two months left to live, but he couldn’t rest easy about his sister, worrying that she would continue to be abused at her in-laws’ home after he was gone.
As he spoke, You Lechun’s face became a mess of snot and tears.
The sight was truly pitiful and elicited a wave of sympathy from the viewers in the chat:
[SOB SOB SOB... You always seem so happy. I never would have known things were this tragic for you!]
[Is your sister okay? I really hope she’s okay! This is so heartbreaking! She really married the wrong man! He was good to her at first, then he changed the moment she got pregnant. What kind of person is that?!]
[Ladies, you have to keep your eyes wide open when you’re looking for a partner. Find out what kind of person they are before you get married!]
[Damn! Why are all the matches tonight scumbags?!]
[Holy crap, I was thinking the same thing. I’ve had it. Tonight’s been nothing but a parade of scumbags!]
You Lechun wiped away his tears, his voice choked with sobs. "Streamer, I sought you out because I want to ask, if I kill my brother-in-law, how many years would I be sentenced to? After my brother-in-law is gone, will my sister be happy?"
"Sigh..." Hearing this, Shen Zhiyao heaved a deep sigh. "Since you’re going to pass on soon anyway, why worry about all that? Just focus on enjoying yourself and being happy for these last two months. Your sister’s affairs are her own. Why do you have to meddle?"
"You don’t understand! A cold-blooded person like you will never understand the bond between my sister and me!" You Lechun burst into tears after hearing Shen Zhiyao’s words. "My sister is the best person to me in the entire world! If I don’t even help her, who else will?! I just can’t bear to see her suffer!"
"It’s useless!" Shen Zhiyao simply felt it wasn’t worth it for You Lechun.
’Even if he helped his sister, she might not even thank him. Instead, she’d blame him for killing her husband, and she would stop visiting him during the last two months he had left.’
’Even after he died, his sister would only hate him.’
’For a person like her, was it really worth giving up the last moments of his life?’
’Perhaps she really didn’t understand human emotions...’
Seeing how insistent he was, Shen Zhiyao sighed in resignation. "After you kill your brother-in-law, you’ll be sentenced to death. Your sister will also sue you for financial compensation. In the end, all the money you’ve earned from being an influencer will fall into your sister’s pocket. Think it over clearly before you make a move."
"As long as it’s for her, I’m willing..."
You Lechun’s tears streamed down his face, and he looked exceptionally pitiful. "As long as my sister won’t be beaten anymore... I’ll do anything you ask. Even if she hates me for it later... I’m willing!"
