Chapter 175: Lin Jiayu’s Story

Translator: Yunyi Editor: Yunyi

Lin Jiayu stared straight at Yu Gangan. Her cold and stiff face remained emotionless, but her hands clasped together so tightly that her fingers turned red.

Only after a short moment did she respond with doubt, “A-Are you sure?”

Yu Gangan nodded, “You appear to be one month pregnant.”

If Yu Gangan remembered correctly, Jiayu had already broken up with her boyfriend half a year ago.

If that was the case, whose child was this?

Lin Jiayu almost blacked out as she flopped to the side.

Yu Gangan immediately supported her and asked, “Jiayu, are you OK?”

Lin Jiayu was not OK. She was definitely not OK. Lin Jiayu stretched out her arms and wrapped them around her own shoulders.

Yu Gangan looked at the woman’s pale complexion and hugged her comfortingly without a word.

“Didn’t you ask me why I was unwilling to smile?” Lin Jiayu’s lips twitched a little but they remained stiff, unable to pull off a smile.

Ever since she was small, her background, her appearance, her moral character, and her abilities had always been superior to others. Moreover, she had never experienced any setbacks.

But, this was only the case until she met Li Nansheng.

Nansheng ¹ was a pleasant-sounding name. When one called this name, it reminded them of a famous poem: “Red berries grow in the south. How many branches will bloom this Spring? I hope you can gather some, as I miss them the most.”

Lin Jiayu’s family background meant that she was destined to get whatever she wanted in life. But, she had an introverted personality that made her quite humble.

Up until that point, the only thing she ever wanted to possess and protect was the love she shared with Li Nansheng.

Lin Jiayu’s best friend was called Zhang Yuzhi. When she brought Li Nansheng to Beijing with her, she introduced him to Zhang Yuzhi. After that, Lin Jiayu took her along with them to Antarctica.

She wanted Zhang Yuzhi to help her take a look at Li Nansheng and determine how he was as a boyfriend.

But, the result was, her best friend became interested in her boyfriend and stole him away from her.

That was the first time Lin Jiayu put up with humiliation and tried to hold onto a relationship.

In the end…

Lin Jiayu would always remember what her good friend said to her in that cold land of ice and snow, “You can’t force love. He doesn’t love you, he loves me.”

Nor would she ever forget what her boyfriend said to her, “Do you know how tough it is to be with you? I feel so restricted that I struggle to breathe sometimes. I don’t like how you cling to me and I don’t like how you control me. More importantly, I don’t like the way you smile at me. Let’s just leave it at this and end it happily. Perhaps, we are destined to only be friends.”

That was her first friend and first boyfriend.

Lin Jiayu thought their love would be the same as other beautiful love stories and end happily ever after.

She gave 100% into the relationship, thinking that she would receive the same back.

But, to her surprise, not only did she not receive anything, she ended up being betrayed in both love and friendship.

That day, Lin Jiayu stood in that land of ice and snow for a really long time.

So long that she didn’t even realize she had frostbite.

She always thought she was a calm person; even if she was to love, she didn’t expect to love so deeply.

As a result, even she was amazed by her own sorrow and dejection.

She tried telling herself that it was just a man, but no matter what she did, she couldn’t seem to raise her spirits back up.

So, a few days before she was first consulted by Yu Gangan, she actually made a visit to Beijing to see Li Nansheng and Zhang Yuzhi. But, she discovered they were living a good and sweet life.

Because of that, she ended up transforming into a drunk woman at the bar.
