When I broke up with my boyfriend, it was an ugly scene.... more>>

In the year he loved me the most, I accepted the three million his mother offered, aborted our child, and betrayed him.

He said he would hate me for a lifetime.

And I, in my misery, sought him out, hoping to borrow some money.

He asked me if I regretted it.

I discovered his diary.

On the last page, it was written:

"In the next life, I don't want to be Ji Yutong's brother."

I was stunned.

So, even until his death, my brother still hated me.

If it weren't for my insistence on marrying Qin Siyuan, inviting a wolf into the house.

The Ji Family wouldn't have gone bankrupt, and my brother wouldn't have ended up in prison.

Suddenly, bullet screens appeared on the diary.

"You don't think his not wanting to be your brother means he hates you, do you?"

"Why don't you turn back a few pages and see."

I turned to the diary entries from my brother's university days.

It read: "Liking one's own younger sister makes one a beast."

Tears instantly welled up in my eyes.

The bullet screens appeared again.

"We've reached a thousand likes! We can help you be reborn back to your university days!"

"Hurry back! Your brother is about to get into a car accident!"

I bumped into Qin Siyuan, who had just returned.

A bullet screen floated by:

"Remember to teach this s*umbag a lesson when you go back to university!" <<less
