Their relationship was intimate. When Su Mian heard that Wei Zhen Hui planned to return home to tell his family about their relationship before proposing to her, she thought she was going to marry him soon.
However, the news about their marriage did not come. Instead, what she heard was his engagement with her older cousin.
This was shocking to Su Mian!
She did not lose hope. Maybe there was some sort of mistake and she hoped that Wei Zhen Hui would explain the situation to her.
However, he could not explain himself, and could only apologize to her repeatedly…
Many years had gone by, but Su Mian could not help but burst into tears at the thought of it.
She hated Wei Zhen Hui. She hated how he abandoned her without reason, but what she hated most was herself. In a fit of anger, she decided to marry Jiang Yi, who had pursued her, before Wei Zhen Hui got married.
Before her marriage, Wei Zhen Hui went to find her many times to warn her that Jiang Yi was not a good person at heart and was mentally ill. He warned her to stay away from such a man, but she did not listen.
That willfulness of her’s came with a disastrous cost.
After marriage, Su Mian then realized that Jiang Yi was truly mentally ill.
Jiang Yi was born from an influential family of soldiers, and was the only son.
He appeared like a normal person, but he was a monster who tormented her. To this day, some scars remained on her body.
Finally, on one night when both Jiang Yi and Su Mian were drunk, Su Mian took the opportunity and killed Jiang Yi with a fruit knife.
“Su Mian, someone’s here to see you.” The female prison guard’s cold voice interrupted Su Mian’s thoughts.
She stood up and followed the prison guard.
In all the years she was imprisoned, her father visited once during the day of her imprisonment.
After that, no one else came to see her.
Her younger brother executed by firing squad after being accused of murder, and her stepmother passed away from a serious illness after a series of anxiety attacks.
Her father soon became depressed and died a few years after.
Su Mian did not know who else in the world remembered her.
The only other person who wanted to see her was Wei Zhen Hui, but she had refused to see him. After all, he was someone she never wanted to see.
He had steadily risen in ranks. When Su Mian was first imprisoned, he was already a captain. There was nothing to talk between them, much less a need to meet.
Su Mian walked unsteadily as the heavy chains were dragged on the black cement floor.
As soon as she entered the visiting room, a gorgeous lady charged at her before she could steady herself.
The woman grabbed Su Mian’s short hair and slammed her against the concrete wall, “Su Mian, you sl*t! You caused Zhen Hui’s death! Why haven’t you died! Why won’t you simply drop dead?”
Su Mian was dizzy from shock, but the pain from the back of her head kept her conscious.
She knew this voice. It was her older cousin, Su Hong.
Su Mian did not resist. Her entire body was like an old ragdoll being dragged by Su Hong.
She was already sick beyond cure. Other than supporting her body, she did not have any strength left to struggle.
After being imprisoned, someone had doped her with a slow-acting poison.
In the beginning, it was just dizziness and headache. After a few years, her skin began to swell. Then years later, her organs began to deteriorate, and her skin began to fester. When she became aware of it, it was already too late.
There were bloodstains on the concrete wall after being slammed against it.
“You sl*t, I’ll slam you against this wall as many times until you die! You seduced my Zhen Hui, so I made you seduce some other man!” Su Hong smashed Su Mian’s head several more times against the wall. As a commander’s wife, she must have used every means to send away the prison guards. That was why she could act without restraint.
“I don’t know…what cousin…is talking about. After being imprisoned…I’ve never met with him.” Su Mian slumped against the wall and said while her breathing was heavy.
Even if she were to die, she did not want to die without knowing why she was insulted for being a sl*t. After all, her relationship with Wei Zhen Hui was a pure one.
