The CEO's wife, suffering from terminal cancer, is filled with regret!

Before Meng Jinghuai could even react, she sneered, "Meng Jinghuai, I am Ji Nanchen's legal wife. How I treat him is a matter between us as husband and wife, and it's none of your business to interfere!"

“Shen Zhixia, you…”

Before Meng Jinghuai could finish speaking, I interrupted him, "Jinghuai, stop talking. I don't want to divorce Shen Zhixia."

"Ji Nanchen! Do you know what you're saying?"

Meng Jinghuai turned to look at me with a shocked expression, his dark eyes filled with astonishment.

He remembered that Nan Chen had said before that he wanted to divorce Shen Zhixia and learn to treat himself better. Why was he refusing now that the opportunity was in front of him?

What's going on? Was he threatened?

Thinking of this, Meng Jinghuai suddenly turned to Shen Zhixia and asked, "He has nothing left now, what do you have to threaten him with?"

"Ji Nanchen, did I threaten you?"

Shen Zhixia looked at me with a half-smile, raising her eyebrows slightly as if she were joking.

But only I know that her smile hides a sharp knife. If I dare to say anything she doesn't like now, misfortune will surely befall the people around me tomorrow.

I can't afford to gamble anymore.

I glanced sideways and met Meng Jinghuai's worried eyes, then gently shook my head. "No, she didn't threaten me. It's just that I can't let her go and I'm unwilling to divorce her."

"why?"

Meng Jinghuai's pupils trembled, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at me. "Ji Nanchen, you've loved her for so many years, isn't that enough? What has she ever given you besides tormenting you? Why aren't you even a little bit kinder to yourself?"

"It's because I've loved her for so many years that loving her has become a habit that I don't want to live without her."

I clenched my fists at my sides and said things that Shen Zhixia wanted to hear against my will.

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhixia curled her lips in satisfaction and looked at Meng Jinghuai provocatively.

"Now, do you understand?"

Meng Jinghuai remained silent.

Shen Zhixia glanced at me, then indifferently said, "I have something to do, I'll be leaving now."

After she left, Meng Jinghuai walked to the bedside and sat down with mixed feelings.

We were both silent for a while, and then I broke the silence by speaking first.

"Jinghuai, from now on, don't worry about my affairs."

Meng Jinghuai sighed helplessly, "What did she use to threaten you?"

I was stunned for a moment; I never expected him to ask that question.

But that's normal. After all, Meng Jinghuai is my best brother, so it's not surprising that he would ask that question.

I chuckled self-deprecatingly, "Anyway, I don't have many days left to live. Once I'm dead, there'll be nothing she can do."

No sooner had I finished speaking than a mocking voice came from the doorway.

"With me here, you might have to endure this living hell for a while longer."

Meng Jinghuai and I looked towards the doorway upon hearing the sound, a fleeting look of surprise crossing our eyes.

Meng Jinghuai stood up and went to greet her, "Jinyun, what brings you here?"

"If I don't come, wouldn't I miss such a good show?"

Su Jinyun walked to the bedside, deftly took down the medicine bottle from the shelf next to the bed, and hung it up again.

After she finished changing the dressing, her gaze fell on me again. "Ji Nanchen, to be honest, seeing you in this state of suffering is really satisfying."

Meng Jinghuai frowned and called out unhappily, "Jinyun!"

I opened my mouth as if to speak, but in the end, I couldn't say anything.

I know that Su Jinyun still harbors resentment about the past and hates me, but that's better than her knowing the truth.

Su Jinyun completely disregarded Meng Jinghuai's objections, and instead looked at me meaningfully, saying, "Evil people will be punished by other evil people. We have a long future ahead of us."

The next second, the ward door was suddenly opened, and Shen Zhixia returned.

When she saw the woman who had suddenly appeared in the ward, her delicate eyebrows furrowed involuntarily. "What are you doing here?"

She remembered this woman; she was one of the people who had helped Ji Nanchen pretend to be sick.

Su Jinyun raised an eyebrow indifferently and replied coldly, "I'm a doctor, I'm here to change his dressing."

"He's just been a little upset, there's no need to make such a fuss."

Shen Zhixia's expression darkened. After saying this, she walked past the two of them and took the phone that had been left by the hospital bed.

She picked up her phone and looked up at me.

"Ji Nanchen, you are a married man. You should consciously keep your distance from women with ulterior motives."

Before I could even open my mouth to argue, Su Jinyun's displeased voice rang out first, "Are you talking about me?"

Shen Zhixia didn't answer her question, but just stared at me intently, "What do you think?"

"Okay," I replied in a hoarse voice.

I have no relationship with Su Jinyun, so it's only right that I keep my distance from her to avoid affecting her.

Su Jinyun glared at me angrily, then looked at Shen Zhixia with a displeased expression, "You and that scumbag are a perfect match."

She picked up the medicine bottle that had just been changed and walked straight out of the ward.

Shen Zhixia stood there, staring at Su Jinyun's departing figure for a long time before turning to look at me, her eyes dark and unfathomable.

What was your relationship with her before?

"It doesn't matter."

I saw Shen Zhixia's brows furrow almost imperceptibly. I knew she was suspicious of my relationship with Su Jinyun, but unfortunately, we were already strangers.

Shen Zhixia smiled mockingly, her gaze towards me growing increasingly gloomy.

If Ji Nanchen really had no relationship with that woman, why would she hate him?

A woman who hates him yet comes to change his dressings—what else could it be but that she can't let him go?

She gently rubbed her hand beside her, and her red lips parted again, "Ji Nanchen, remember what I just said. You are a married man, so don't let any unpleasant rumors spread."

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Shen Zhixia grabbed her phone and left in a hurry.

After she left again, Meng Jinghuai silently covered me with the blanket and said, "Get some sleep."

I nodded wearily and slowly closed my eyes.

I'm about to die anyway, so I'll just have to endure it a little longer.

Once I'm dead, they'll all be safe.

The next day, Shen Zhixia arrived at noon.

She walked into the ward wearing sunglasses. "Ji Nanchen, the dead cannot be brought back to life. You've been running away for a few days; it's time to learn to accept reality."

I froze, turned to look at her, and asked, "Where did you bury my mother?"

“Fu'en Cemetery.” Shen Zhixia uttered these four words calmly, then paused and asked, “Do you want to go see her?”

I nodded slightly, gritted my teeth, went to the bathroom to change my clothes, packed my things, and left the hospital with her.

It started to drizzle on our way to Fuen Cemetery.

The rain fell softly, adding a touch of melancholy to the world.

Shen Zhixia glanced at me sideways and asked gently, "Are you going to move your father's ashes here?"
