Chapter 1

Yeqiu pushed open the door and immediately heard a man and a woman’s voices coming from the bathroom.

"These past few days have been killing me."

"Look at you, so eager. I haven’t even finished washing, and you’re already demanding it. You’re such a bad guy..."

Boom—

Yeqiu’s face turned pale, as if struck by five thunderbolts.

Because the last sentence was said by Zhang Lili.

Zhang Lili was Yeqiu’s girlfriend.

They were classmates in medical school and had been together for two years. After graduation, they both applied to Jiangzhou Hospital and became doctors, but they were still in the probationary period and had not been officially hired.

Yeqiu never thought Zhang Lili would betray him.

Hearing the gradually increasing moans from the bathroom, Yeqiu was filled with rage. He clenched his fists and strode towards the bathroom.

He wanted to see who the man inside was!

However, when he reached the bathroom door, Yeqiu stopped.

What would seeing the man accomplish?

Could it change the facts?

A single door seemed to separate Yeqiu and Zhang Lili by a thousand miles.

Forget it, after all, they had been in love. Let’s leave each other some dignity!

Yeqiu took a deep breath and turned to leave. At that moment, a voice came from the bathroom.

"Hurry up, Yeqiu is about to finish work. If he sees us, it will be over."

"Seeing us would be perfect. I’m actually a bit excited. After dating for two years, he hasn’t even held her hand, but I’ve slept with her. I wonder what his reaction will be?"

Yeqiu frowned; the man’s voice was somewhat familiar.

He heard Zhang Lili say, "You’re so bad... By the way, have you talked to your father about my promotion?"

"Don’t worry. My father is the deputy director of the hospital. Your promotion is just a matter of his word."

It’s him!

Yeqiu instantly recognized the man in the bathroom as Guo Shaocong.

Guo Shaocong was a surgeon at Jiangzhou Hospital. Relying on his father, the deputy director, he was usually arrogant and domineering.

From the first day he joined the surgery department, Yeqiu had heard many rumors about Guo Shaocong, such as forcing his pregnant girlfriend to have an abortion, seducing married women, and coercing beautiful nurses...

In short, Guo Shaocong was a scumbag!

"To get a promotion, Lili actually hooked up with Guo Shaocong. Is it worth it?" Yeqiu’s heart was bleeding.

In the bathroom.

Zhang Lili asked, "Will Yeqiu be promoted?"

"Promoted? Ha, he shouldn’t even think about it." Guo Shaocong said, "I asked my father, and among your batch of probationary doctors, only one will be promoted. The rest will have to wait until next year."

"Yeqiu scored full marks on the recruitment exam and performed well during the probationary period. Most importantly, Director Bai values him highly."

"What’s the use of Director Bai’s favor? The final decision is still in my father’s hands." Guo Shaocong said, "But I heard from my father that Director Bai approached him, wanting to give the promotion to Yeqiu. I don’t understand why Director Bai is so good to Yeqiu. Could they have something going on?"

"Stop talking nonsense. Director Bai is so beautiful, how could she look at Yeqiu?"

"You’re right. Director Bai always has a cold face, looking like she’s miles away. She must be frigid."

"Did you ask your father who will get the promotion this time?"

"Of course, it’s you! Too bad for Yeqiu, not only will he not be promoted, but he’s also wearing a green hat. What a pity."

"What, do you feel sorry for him?" Zhang Lili asked.

"Sorry? Ha!" Guo Shaocong laughed, "I’m just a bit disappointed that he didn’t see you being so wild with me. That guy is really stupid. He dated you for two years and never slept with you. If he knew, he’d think you were practicing celibacy."

"Enough, stop talking!"

"Are you feeling sorry for him? After all, you dated for two years..."

"Stop talking nonsense. A bastard, why should I feel sorry for him!" Zhang Lili said disdainfully.

Hearing this, Yeqiu outside the door was breathing heavily, his face flushed, and his eyes almost spitting fire.

Bastard...

These two words, though harsh, were true. He was indeed a bastard.

Because he was a bastard, his mother was expelled from the family.

This was Yeqiu’s most shameful secret.

He had only told Zhang Lili.

"Yeqiu is a bastard? What’s the story? Tell me more." Guo Shaocong was very interested in this gossip.

Zhang Lili said, "To this day, Yeqiu doesn’t know who his biological father is."

"No way, he doesn’t even know who his father is? Is he lying to you?"

"He really doesn’t know."

"Damn, who did his mother have him with? Even if it was a dog, you’d know the dog’s name, like Ah Huang or Xiao Hei..."

Yeqiu’s veins bulged on his forehead. His mother was his sore spot, and he would not allow anyone to insult her. In a fit of rage, he kicked open the door.

Bang!

The bathroom door was suddenly kicked open, causing a commotion inside.

"Ahh..." Zhang Lili screamed, quickly grabbing a towel to cover herself.

Guo Shaocong was also startled, hastily standing up from the bathtub. When he saw Yeqiu at the door, his tension vanished, and he laughed, "Lili, look who’s here?"

Zhang Lili looked at the door and was stunned, "Yeqiu, when did you come back?"

"I’ve been back for a while. Sorry to interrupt your fun." Yeqiu’s face was dark, and he was struggling to control his anger.

"Yeqiu, it’s not what you think, I..."

"I saw it with my own eyes. Do you want to tell me that everything I saw was fake? Zhang Lili, I never thought you would be this kind of person!"

Yeqiu’s accusations made Zhang Lili furious.

Zhang Lili decided not to explain and said coldly, "I must have been blind to fall for a wimp like you."

"Being with you for two years, I got nothing. You only gave me a broken bracelet, calling it a family heirloom. Ha!"

Zhang Lili took off a white jade bracelet from her wrist and threw it at Yeqiu, saying, "From now on, I’ll go my own way, and you go yours. We have no more connection!"

Yeqiu looked at Zhang Lili, his heart cold. How could his beloved woman turn into this?

Guo Shaocong wrapped his arm around Zhang Lili’s waist and laughed at Yeqiu, "Kid, do you want to watch a live show? I can perform it with Lili for you."

"Go to hell!"

Bang—

Yeqiu punched Guo Shaocong in the face.

Guo Shaocong’s nose started bleeding, and he was furious, "Damn, you dare to hit me? I’ll kill you."

Bang, bang, bang!

Guo Shaocong was 1.9 meters tall, a head taller than Yeqiu, and he was very fit. Yeqiu was no match for him.

Soon, Yeqiu was beaten to the ground.

"A bastard dares to hit me? You must be tired of living!"

Guo Shaocong’s fists rained down on Yeqiu’s body. After a while, he got tired and stomped on Yeqiu’s right hand.

Crack!

Two fingers broke.

"Ahh..." Yeqiu screamed in pain and passed out.

"Damn, so weak. What a wimp."

Guo Shaocong didn’t notice that at that moment, a drop of blood from Yeqiu’s finger seeped into the white jade bracelet...
