After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

"You've ruined Yingying's life! You want me to let you go? Hmph, impossible! Shen Yao, never!"

Gu Tianyou roughly dragged Shen Yao out of the ward like he was carrying a chick.

He is 184 cm tall and stronger than Shen Yao.

Wearing a bespoke high-end suit and sporting a perpetually dark expression, his handsome face exuded arrogance, giving him an even more intimidating aura that deterred many from approaching.

Nurses stopped them along the way, asking what had happened.

Gu Tianyou bluntly stated, "She's my wife, take her out for some fresh air."

Seeing Gu Tianyou's fierce expression and hearing that he was the patient's husband, the nurse wisely walked away.

Until a figure in a white coat stopped him.

"Patient's family, the patient is pale and could die at any moment. Where do you need to take her?"

Gu Tianyou never expected that there would be someone who wasn't afraid of death trying to stop him.

He looked up and saw an extremely handsome man with his hands in the pockets of his white coat, questioning him with a serious expression.

"Huangfu Hao, get out of my way!"

"You tell me to get lost, and I'll just leave?"

Huangfu Hao pushed up his glasses on his straight nose and a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.

"What, feeling sorry for your girl?" Gu Tianyou gripped Shen Yao's wrist tightly with his right hand.

Shen Yao groaned in pain.

Seeing Shen Yao's pained expression, Huangfu Hao's eyes behind his glasses flashed with a cold light.

He quickly reached out, grabbed Gu Tianyou's wrist that was holding Shen Yao, and twisted it hard, making a sound of bones dislocating.

Gu Tianyou reflexively let out a muffled groan and had no choice but to release Shen Yao.

Huangfuhao quickly grabbed Shen Yao's shoulder, raised his foot, and kicked Gu Tianyou directly in the lower abdomen.

Gu Tianyou let out another muffled groan, his knees buckling in pain.

"If we weren't in the hospital, I would have crippled you!"

After saying this, Huangfuhao picked up Shen Yao around the waist and carried her back to the ward.

When the assistant came up, he saw Gu Tianyou clutching his crotch, leaning against the wall with a pale and ashen face.

"Mr. Gu, what's wrong?"

"Help me get out of here, quickly!"

With people around him pointing and whispering, Gu Tianyou couldn't stay there for even a second longer.

He won't let Shen Yao off so easily!

Lying back in bed, Shen Yao's discomfort lessened considerably.

"Thank you, I'm so sorry to have shown you how disheveled I am."

Shen Yao apologized weakly.

Huangfu Hao tucked Shen Yao in, then gave her a meaningful look with his deep, starry eyes: "I haven't been able to reach you for the past few days. So you were in the hospital. Why didn't you tell me?"

Shen Yao smiled and said, "I'm just feeling unwell. I'll be fine in a couple of days."

Huangfuhao looked at Shen Yao's face covered in bruises, her head wrapped in bandages, and her hands covered in burn ointment. He pursed his lips slightly and didn't ask any more questions.

"Take good care of yourself and recover. Once you're better, think carefully about my advice. You're a top medical student from Harvard; don't waste your talents."

"Okay, sure," Shen Yao replied softly, looking extremely tired.

In the following days, Gu Tianyou did not come to the hospital to cause trouble for Shen Yao again.

But another problem arose for her.

Seven days later, one afternoon, Shen Yao received a call from her father.

As soon as the call connected, a woman's piercing scream came from the other end of the phone.

"Yaoyao, I'm going to die! Please, save me!"

The woman cried bitterly, but Shen Yao remained calm, even indifferent.

"Mom, if you divorce Shen Dequan, I'll come pick you up right away."

Before Shen Yao could finish speaking, a man's rough and filthy curses came from the phone.

"Shen Yao, are you even speaking human language? Who would advise their parents to divorce? Let me tell you, if your mother dares to divorce me, I'll run to the Gu family villa and commit suicide by cutting my wrists. I'll put up big-character posters about you, and I'll let everyone in Shenzhen know that you, Shen Yao, are an ungrateful and heartless wretch!"

After finishing his rant, Shen Dequan raised his foot and kicked Wang Haiya hard in the stomach.

Wang Haiya let out a scream, clutching her stomach and sobbing.

"Dequan, don't cause trouble for Yaoyao! It's not easy for her all alone in Shenzhen. Please don't ruin her life."

"Hmph, she married into a wealthy family, lives in a mansion, and drives luxury cars. How is that not easy for her? She lives a life of luxury every day, but does she ever think about how miserable her old father is, struggling to make ends meet?"

"You've used all the money your daughter sent you to sleep with prostitutes and gamble! Why don't you say that!"

"How dare you talk back? I'll beat you to death!"

From inside the dilapidated house came the pitiful wails of a woman.

Shen Yao hung up the phone in frustration, her entire back soaked with cold sweat.

Her face was pale, and her hand holding the phone trembled slightly.

After marrying into the Gu family, Gu Tianyou, with his net worth of hundreds of billions, gave the Shen family a dowry of 100 million.

Shen Yao gave the 100 million yuan to her biological parents intact as a way of repaying their kindness in giving her life.

The reason it is called the grace of giving birth rather than the grace of raising is because Shen Yao was thrown into a trash can by Shen Dequan as soon as she was born.

A sanitation worker who was cleaning the streets found her and took her to the police station.

The police sent Shen Yao back to Shen Dequan, but Shen Dequan, in a drunken rage, repeatedly abandoned her.

The local women's federation couldn't stand by and watch, so they contacted the Shen family's relatives to ask who was willing to adopt them.

However, Shen Dequan has offended too many people over the years, and no relative is willing to adopt Shen Yao.

The Women's Federation had no choice but to send Shen Yao to an orphanage.

Shen Yao grew up in kindergarten for 6 years and gradually learned about her background: she had been abandoned by her biological parents.

It wasn't until Grandpa Gu came to the orphanage, saw the lovely and charming Shen Yao, and took her back as his adopted granddaughter that Shen Yao's life took a turn for the better.

At the Gu family home, she saw Gu Tianyou, the pride of heaven.

She fell in love with him at first sight.

So from childhood to adulthood, she was willing to do anything for Gu Tianyou so that she could be with him.

When Gu Tianyou was unhappy, she would make funny faces to make him laugh; when Gu Tianyou played a prank on her, making her bark like a dog, she would bark like a dog; when Gu Tianyou said she looked promiscuous in a skirt, she would always wear pants...

From age 6 to 26, Shen Yao lived a humble life and loved Gu Tianyou in a humble way.

She is also trying her best to get rid of the shadow of being abandoned by her biological parents.

However, the day after Shen Yao and Gu Tianyou got married, her father, Shen Dequan, somehow got her phone number and called her.

From then on, whenever Shen Dequan ran out of money, he would call Shen Yao.

If Shen Yao refused, he would hit Wang Haiya.

This happened for three whole years.

Although Shen Yao married Gu Tianyou, Gu Tianyou never gave her a single penny.

They even had their property notarized when they got married.

If they divorce one day, Shen Yao will not get a single penny.

Therefore, the money Shen Yao sent to her parents was all saved up from her work over the years.

Some time ago, she encountered financial difficulties and was unable to transfer money to Shen Dequan in a timely manner.

Shen Dequan then resorted to his old tricks and beat Wang Haiya.

He threatened Shen Yao that if she didn't receive 15 yuan within a month, he would take a fruit knife and commit suicide at the entrance of the Gu family villa.

Misfortune never comes singly.

This morning, the nurse came to take her temperature and also brought her a list of medical expenses, totaling 15 yuan.

She only had 15 yuan left in her bank account.

Is this driving her to the brink of despair?
