Chapter 1: Rebirth

"Xu Tian! Why! Why! Why must you use this method to take revenge on me?"

"Do you hate me that much? Do you want to divorce me that badly? Fine! I'll grant your wish! From today on... there is no longer any connection between you and me!"

"Slap—"

A cold, icy divorce agreement, accompanied by her heart-dead voice, was thrown onto Xu Tian's face without a shred of warmth!

So heavy!

So heavy that it felt as if it were severing all affection between the two of them.

"Bang!"

It wasn't until the sound of the door slamming echoed that Xu Tian, whose mind had been a complete blank, finally snapped back to reality!

As if recalling something, he lunged forward to grab the document and took a look—

【Divorce Agreement】

【Date: August 14th】

"... It's me, the living me..."

"I, I have finally been reborn..."

The next moment, Xu Tian turned his head to look around.

By the bedside, the red underwear deliberately left behind, and the torn clothes scattered across the floor, signaled the scene of madness from last night!

Suddenly, Xu Tian's breathing became sharp and rapid.

He remembered!

August 14th!

Back then, in order to make Tang Bingyan feel cold-hearted enough to divorce, the Xu family had gotten him drunk, sent a woman to his bed to create the illusion of him cheating, and then called Tang Bingyan, just in time for her to 'catch him in the act'!

In his previous life, he had listened to the slander of the Xu family and used every means possible just to divorce Tang Bingyan!

He stole her company secrets! He sabotaged her international collaborations! He exposed her bidding prices to her competitors! He slipped laxatives into her food during her period when she was in agonizing pain!

To get a divorce, he had left her covered in wounds! Yet, she had never once taken revenge on him...

She said: "It's just an international collaboration, if it's ruined, it's ruined; you are more important."

She said: "Don't go stealing confidential documents next time, it's easy to get hurt by security; whatever you want, I will give it to you."

"In this world, anyone might harm you, but I, Tang Bingyan, will not... there is no 'why', as long as I am alive, no one can touch you."

Yes!

Even after the divorce, she still couldn't let him go, still protecting him from the shadows! She even built the Xu family up into the number one wealthy clan in Jiangcheng!

However!

After the Xu family squeezed him dry of all value, they chopped off his hands and feet, staged a fire, and let him be burned alive in the flames! It wasn't until the moment before his death that he learned the truth! He finally realized: the eldest brother he respected! The adoptive parents who fussed over him—they all secretly wished for his death!

They thought that by staging his accidental death, they could hide it from Tang Bingyan's eyes!

But no one expected that Tang Bingyan's true identity was ten thousand times more terrifying than it appeared on the surface!

After investigating the truth, Tang Bingyan single-handedly wiped out the entire Xu family, and then committed suicide in front of his grave.

He could never forget that scene until his death; she was crying, stroking his tombstone, so desperately repeating his name over and over: "Xu Tian, Xu Tian..."

"I'm so scared, why did you leave me again? In the next life, in the next life, will you look at me just once... I miss you so much, you're gone, I can't go on living..."

A person as noble and cold as her had been as humble as the lowliest speck of dust in front of him!

In the second before she committed suicide, she was still begging him, only asking him to look at her once...

Anger!

Remorse!

Pain!

Occupied every nerve in Xu Tian's body. He was back! He would never let the events of his previous life happen again!

"Xu Rixin!"

"Xu Pingfeng!!"

"In this life, I, Xu Tian, and the Xu family are irreconcilable enemies!"

"I'm back, and none of you will have an easy time!"

Xu Tian gripped his fingers until they turned white, his hatred soaring to the heavens.

As for the divorce?!

He! Will! Not! Divorce!

Wait...

Divorce? The Xu family?!

Today! Isn't this the day Tang Bingyan, heartbroken, was preparing to transfer the Yan Group to the Xu family before leaving Jiangcheng?!

And it was precisely because of the transfer of the Yan Group that the Xu family soared to the sky, becoming an unshakable, transcendent existence in the future!

"The Xu family wants to use my identity as a member of the Xu family to swallow the Yan Group for free? Keep dreaming!"

"There is still time, Bingyan! Wait for me! Wait for me..."

Half an hour later.

Following his memories, Xu Tian rushed anxiously to the Jiangcheng First Hospital.

He prayed incessantly in his heart:

Don't sign! Please, don't sign that contract...

He didn't know what had happened to Bingyan, he only vaguely remembered the Xu family once saying that the Yan Group transfer contract was signed by Tang Bingyan at the hospital...

However, just as Xu Tian rushed into the hospital, preparing to find the ward where Tang Bingyan was located.

"Xu Tian! Why are you here?!"

Suddenly!

At the hospital lobby payment counter, Tang Bingyan's assistant, Chen Xiaoxiao, rushed toward Xu Tian, full of fury, blocking his path!

Before Xu Tian could anxiously ask where Tang Bingyan was, a man's voice suddenly came from the phone Chen Xiaoxiao was holding to her ear.

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoxiao softened her expression, and while blocking Xu Tian, she said gently: "Lin Doctor, Tang Zong dragged it out for a day before coming to the hospital. The dean said the injuries are too severe, and even he is helpless. Please hurry over, I will wait for you at the hospital entrance."

After the call ended, Chen Xiaoxiao raised her head, her eyes full of coldness glaring at Xu Tian, her face filled with disgust and anger!

Meeting Chen Xiaoxiao's furious eyes, a bad premonition suddenly arose in Xu Tian's heart: "Assistant Chen, how is Bingyan's condition now?"

"Has the Xu family arrived? Bingyan cannot sign that Yan Group transfer contract, hurry and take me to her, I..."

"Enough!!!" Chen Xiaoxiao suppressed the anger in her heart, pointed at the hospital entrance, and mocked him word by word:

"Xu Tian, at a time like this, what are you pretending for? How is Tang Zong's condition? Xu Tian! Don't you know what you've done?!"

Hearing this, Xu Tian's face turned pale instantly!

Right!

He remembered!

Last night, in order to stage that affair, the Xu family called Tang Bingyan, who was away in the Imperial Capital discussing a collaboration, saying he had been beaten and injured.

Tang Bingyan didn't hesitate to abandon her business partners and rushed from the Imperial Capital to Jiangcheng overnight! As a result, because she was driving too fast, she got into a car accident halfway!

He remembered... that car accident in his previous life was quite serious, and Tang Bingyan had been left with chronic ailments because of it.

So last night...

Last night, when Tang Bingyan mistakenly thought she had 'caught him in the act' and wanted him to explain on the staircase, he listened to Xu Rixin's instigation and ruthlessly pushed Tang Bingyan.

That push directly sent Tang Bingyan, who was already enduring severe pain from the car accident, tumbling down the stairs.

She collapsed on the ground right there and couldn't get up.

But he had thought Tang Bingyan was faking it, trying to make him soften his heart.

He had heartlessly watched her tremble in pain until she fainted...

In the end, she smiled and asked him: "Do you loathe me so much that you can watch me die with your own eyes?"

He answered "Yes"...

And the next day when he woke up, Tang Bingyan threw that divorce agreement in his face!

Xu Tian didn't dare to think anymore!

He didn't dare to think about how much pain Tang Bingyan must have been in at that time!!! ===== CHAPTER 2 =====
