She suddenly pointed at herself and her beautiful eyebrows slammed together to form a single line as she stared at him, a man she had once loved for five years, with both shock and confusion. This man suddenly seemed to foreign to her.

“You…” Mo Yixuan looked at the sky in the distance, the setting sun had its rays blocked by the high-rise building far away and all that remained were the red clouds that filled the sky. In his eyes, he could only see the red part of the sunset glow. He sighed and finally uttered the words he kept in his heart.

“You’re my woman.” He replied and gently closed his eyes to hide his inner turmoil. He thus missed the moment when the moment in front of him froze at his words.

He Xiyan suddenly clutched at his shirt and the tears that were swirling in her eyes had dried up. Instead, her eyes were full of shock and disbelief.

“Yixuan, you’re crazy!”

She could not believe that this man had actually asked her to return to him as his mistress and that he could harbor such dirty thoughts in his heart.

God, he must have gone crazy. She did not recognize him at all.

“I won’t return with you, Mo Yixuan. Your woman is Xia Yuwei.” Angered, He Xiyan breathed rapidly and she spoke forcefully as she tried to remind this man who seemed so foreign to his current identity.

She would never forget the words he uttered that day. The day when he brought Xia Yuwei home, kissed her in front of her and then declared that Xia Yuwei was his woman.

“But I want to take care of you, Yan Yan,” Mo Yixuan reached out to caress her face, flushed red from anger. His hands burned when he felt the warmth from her face for he knew that Xia Yuwei was his wife but he still wanted Yan Yan to remain by his side and even to be able to see her whenever he wanted to.

He Xiyan shook off his hand.

“I don’t need you to look after me.” She said angrily and looked up once again at him, her face full of rage.

His words suddenly made her feel extremely dejected. When had he ever looked after her during the years they spent together? When she fell sick, she went to the doctor’s alone and every year during her parent’s death anniversary, she would return home alone. He had always been extremely busy and they had barely even gone on any movie or shopping dates together.

She was always the one looking after him.

She looked toward her belly and could not stop her tears from falling. Her hands clenched into fists. She would only want to look after her child from now on.

She turned and walked past him.

All she wanted right now was for him to leave and to leave this instant.

She did not want him to ever appear here again.

She walked to the living room and reached out for the doorknob. Unfortunately, even before her hand reached the doorknob and even bigger hand behind her held her once more, then picked her up in a princess carry.

He Xiyan screamed as she lost her center of gravity.

She struggled with all her might and kept kicking at the air with her legs.

Her blood froze in her veins.

She reached out to grab his hair and she pulled hard at it as though she was about to pluck an entire clump of his hair off.

“Let me down!” She shouted so loudly that her throat became hoarse.

The man who held her ignored her protests and threw her on the sofa. Then, he bore down on her and pinned her down so hard that she couldn’t move. He even held her hand that grabbed his hair and rendered her immobile.

Masculine hormones permeated the entire area.

Mo Yixuan bit his lips and looked deeply at the woman under him with tenderness in his eyes. He did not know what he should do at that moment. All he wanted was for her to return home with him but her coldness made him afraid.

He Xiyan’s face was pale and beads of cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She breathed heavily and her heart beat wildly.

What should she do? What should she do?

She clenched her fists tightly and dug her fingernails into her palm, but she was still not able to move. She turned to look at the man’s bloodshot eyes and she made a final desperate attempt to warn him off.

“Mo Yixuan, you can’t do this to me. I am now your ex-wife. This is illegal, it is ra-”

The final syllable was muffled by that man’s mouth.
