I simply flew to Japan to spend time with Song Xue.
After nearly three months, I felt much better and flew back home. Upon returning, I went out for a walk and suddenly spotted a familiar figure busy in the flowerbed. It was One Pregnancy Eight Treasures.
I walked over and asked, "What are you doing?"
One Pregnancy Eight Treasures looked up, smiling as he said, "Xiao Xiao, I know you love Chinese Roses, so I want to show you a garden full of them!" He wore a straw hat, his face covered in dirt, and his broad smile revealed a set of bright white teeth.
His tone was sincere as he continued, "Xiao Xiao, I will only make that mistake once! You have to believe me; the person I have loved the most from the beginning is you!"
My heart skipped a beat, feeling as if it were immersed in a warm spring, both sweet and aching. One Pregnancy Eight Treasures was my childhood friend and my first love.
I asked him, "What if you make another mistake?"
He raised his hand in a vow, declaring, "If I make another mistake, I will live in poverty and die a miserable death!"
I felt extremely troubled.
"Xiao Xiao..."
"Don't come any closer!"
I shook my head and hurried away. One Pregnancy Eight Treasures was the man I loved most. Before everything happened, I never thought about separating from him. But then it did happen, like a thorn piercing my heart. I didn’t know how to face him.
The next day, I pretended to walk past the flowerbed but didn’t see One Pregnancy Eight Treasures anywhere. For three days in a row, he didn’t come. The flowerbed had only a small patch of Chinese Roses; the rest of the area was empty.
Standing in the middle of the flowerbed with mud all over my shoes, my heart felt just as hollow.
"Miss, it's time to go back; it's raining," the butler said as he held an umbrella over me.
I gazed at the rain-soaked, drooping Chinese Roses and softly said, "Butler, send someone to find out where he has gone."
In the evening, the butler entered the small living room with a man dressed in black. "Miss, there’s something important I must report to you."
I sat in a rattan chair holding my coffee cup and replied, "Go ahead."
The man in black reported, "Miss, One Pregnancy Eight Treasures has gone to Su Wanqing."
The iron ladle clinked against the coffee cup, producing a sharp sound that echoed in the room.
The man in black continued, "Su Wanqing is pregnant with eight babies and has now been taken back to the Cheng family for bed rest. One Pregnancy Eight Treasures has been accompanying her these days."
The Cheng family is considering calling off the engagement with me.
I sat there for a while, then stood up and rushed out of the villa into the rain.
"Xiao Xiao, where are you going?" my mother called after me.
I turned back, holding back tears as I replied, "I'm going to ask him."
How could he say he would love me forever and change his mind so quickly?
Clearly, I had already been contemplating whether to forgive him...
As I ran out of the villa, a sudden wave of dizziness hit me, and countless images flashed through my mind before I collapsed.
In my dreams, I saw myself bursting into Su Wanqing's room and slapping her hard. Su Wanqing fell from the bed to the floor, crying out in agony.
Everyone sympathized with Su Wanqing, believing I was cruel for what I had done.
One Pregnancy Eight Treasures completely sided with Su Wanqing, treating her like a precious gem.
Out of my infatuation with One Pregnancy Eight Treasures, I committed various petty acts against Su Wanqing and even teamed up with the antagonist Chu Ming to strike at the Cheng family.
In the end, I crazily chased after Su Wanqing with a knife, and during our struggle, we fell down the stairs where I met my demise.
Everyone applauded my death...
"Ah!"
The heart-wrenching pain jolted me awake.
"Xiao Xiao, you're awake?" My mother sat by my bedside and reached out to touch my forehead. "Your fever has gone down; thank goodness."
I grasped her hand tightly, breathing heavily. "Mom..."
All the events in my dream came from a book titled "One Pregnancy Eight Treasures: The Rich Husband's Affection."
And I was the foolish Vicious Female Supporting Character within it.
Though I was a young lady, I resorted to the lowest tactics to undermine Su Wanqing and ultimately met a tragic end.
"Xiao Xiao, it's okay; there are plenty of men in this world. I'll definitely find you someone better than One Pregnancy Eight Treasures," my mother comforted me softly.
Hearing her gentle voice made my eyes well up as I looked up and said, "Mom, I'm fine."
I would never go back to One Pregnancy Eight Treasures' family again.
Su Wanqing had been waiting for me to cause a scene so she could frame me for her miscarriage.
"Mom, tomorrow I want to make a statement: I'm calling off my engagement with One Pregnancy Eight Treasures." I swallowed down the bitterness inside and said calmly, "I want to clarify to the public that it was I, Mu Xiaoxiao, who didn't want him."
"Are you sure you want to do this?" My mother lovingly stroked my hair. "Once it's announced, there will be no turning back."
I looked at her with determination in my eyes. "Yes, do it."
I refuse to look back; I am the proud and willful Miss Mu.
Soon, Mu Group announced that due to the scandal involving One Pregnancy Eight Treasures, the Mu Family had terminated their engagement with the Cheng Family and would no longer cooperate.
The news sent shockwaves throughout the city.
Song Xue called me, her voice filled with disbelief. "You really broke up with One Pregnancy Eight Treasures?"
"Absolutely."
"I remember you liked him since middle school. No matter how many boys flirted with you, you never paid them any mind, not even that Chu Ming... He was so tall and handsome, pursuing you for five whole years, yet you remained unmoved. I thought for sure you would be with One Pregnancy Eight Treasures forever. Who would have thought you'd break up just before the wedding?"
I replied softly, "Nothing lasts forever."
Mentioning Chu Ming brought my thoughts back a few years. Among all my suitors, Chu Ming was the most persistent. Even when I treated him coldly and indifferently, he pursued me for five years.
He once said, "Sister, I like you. I will love you forever."
For the sake of One Pregnancy Eight Treasures, I never entertained a backup option. Whenever someone expressed their affection for me, I would firmly reject them without hesitation; I refused to engage in any ambiguous relationships.
To make sure Chu Ming gave up completely, I spoke harshly to him and disdainfully said, "Sorry, but I don't like younger guys. You'll never be older than me in this lifetime. Just go away."
After that, Chu Ming disappeared from my life; I heard he went abroad.
In the book, Chu Ming became a villain and formed an alliance with me as a malicious antagonist to deal with the male and female leads, ultimately meeting a tragic end together.
I suddenly wondered: if I had chosen Chu Ming back then, would things have been different...?
I quickly shook my head. After humiliating him like that, how could I ever consider him again if I were to find another boyfriend?
"Xiao Xiao, my flight is tomorrow. Come pick me up," Song Xue said.
Song Xue was in Japan; I knew she was worried about me and rushed back home.
A warmth spread through my heart. "Okay."
On Thursday afternoon, I drove to the airport to pick Song Xue up. As soon as I approached the entrance, I spotted a slender figure standing at the door.
As I drove closer, the person seemed to notice me and immediately turned around. "Miss Mu!"
With a pale face that looked pitiful and a noticeably swollen belly—it was none other than Su Wanqing.
