Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife Chapter 1: I Will Definitely Marry You In The Next Lifetime!
The sky was thick with heavy clouds today, creating a stifling atmosphere that felt oppressive even within the confines of the vehicle.
Gu Qingyao sat in the rear seat, deep in contemplation.
After all these years, she had finally resolved to wed that man. Although her heart had been a battlefield of conflicting emotions in the past, it was currently overflowing with pure joy. Gu Qingyao realized that she had truly fallen in love with him!
The events of the past weren't his doing, and he had spent every moment since then trying to atone for it. It was time to let the past remain in the past!
Just as Gu Qingyao stepped out of the car at the courtyard gates, she noticed a woman approaching her.
Clad in a white gown, the woman possessed an innate air of nobility and grace despite no longer being in her youth.
A true beauty!
A flash of intense envy crossed Bai Youran’s features as she stared at Gu Qingyao, whose beauty surpassed her own. With a sneer of contempt, Bai Youran mocked, “You seem to be in high spirits! Ha! To think you can actually tolerate marrying the man who once raped you. You certainly are generous!
“It isn't surprising, though. For a girl raised in the rural countryside like yourself, marrying into a prestigious clan like the Mo family is the luckiest thing that could happen. You should be grateful he raped you back then. If he hadn't, someone like you would never have the opportunity to marry him.”
Gu Qingyao’s hands balled into fists. That event had once been her worst nightmare!
It was her deepest source of agony!
Bai Youran had feelings for Mo Beihan, but they were unrequited. In a desperate attempt to claim him, she hadn't hesitated to use drugs on him.
Mo Beihan, however, resisted and managed to flee. It was during his escape that he crossed paths with her.
It was late at night, and she had been alone in the house. Her entire body was limp and she was unable to cry out for help, having been drugged herself by the mother-daughter duo, Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing.
Even though Mo Beihan was struggling under the drug's influence, he clung to a shred of sanity and couldn't bring himself to harm her.
The moment Mo Beihan exited through the front, another man sneaked in through the rear window. That vile man intended to defile her the second he laid eyes on her inside the house.
She was completely helpless, unable to run or scream. Only she knew the true depth of that terror and hopelessness.
By a stroke of luck, Mo Beihan heard a commotion and turned back to save her.
Only fifteen at the time, the sheer trauma of facing such a horror in the dead of night caused her to suffer a mental collapse, and she lost consciousness.
Terrified that she might face further danger, Mo Beihan didn't dare leave her side and stayed to protect her by the bed. He endured until the drug's effects faded, eventually falling asleep from pure exhaustion beside her.
When the sun rose the following morning, chaos erupted!
Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing arrived with a crowd to catch them in an act of adultery!
This took place in the seventies—a unique era marked by conservative values, backward thinking, and social instability. The conduct between men and women was policed with extreme severity. Had Mo Beihan not done everything in his power to shoulder the entire blame, she might have lost her life.
No one cared whether anything had actually occurred between her and Mo Beihan; her reputation was utterly destroyed!
During the upheaval of the seventies, she lived in constant dread, facing the scorn of many.
This was precisely why she had struggled to move past the incident. Throughout her youth in that rigid era, the relentless gossip was enough to drive anyone to the brink of insanity. Consequently, she became terrified whenever she encountered men, Mo Beihan included.
Mo Beihan had spent years attempting to make amends, and after so much time, she was finally prepared to accept him and become his wife!
Bai Youran!
Gu Qingyao fought to maintain her composure, refusing to fall for the bait. Bai Youran was trying to provoke her on purpose!
A smirk played on Gu Qingyao’s lips as she met Bai Youran’s gaze with a steady smile. “Listen to how bitter you sound. In truth, you’re drowning in jealousy, aren't you? You probably wish that you were the one he 'raped' back then just so you could have a chance to marry him, right?”
“You...” Bai Youran’s expression contorted instantly.
“Oh, that’s right!” Gu Qingyao’s smile widened. “I really should thank you! If you hadn't drugged him all those years ago, a simple village girl like me might never have had the chance to marry into a powerful family like the Mo family! You truly are a benefactor!”
“AHAH! Shut your mouth!” The memory of that night filled Bai Youran with rage and envy, especially hearing Gu Qingyao brag about it.
“You slut! Who do you think you are? You're just some nobody from the sticks, yet you have the nerve to marry Brother Beihan. You don't deserve him! You don't deserve him! Just go and die!”
Driven to madness by the news of the impending wedding between Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan, Bai Youran lunged forward and shoved Gu Qingyao violently.
Gu Qingyao was pushed toward the road just as a vehicle was passing by. She tried to dodge, but it was far too late.
“Yao Yao...”
A soul-shattering cry rang out. In the final second before the impact, she saw the man who had waited an entire lifetime for her charging toward her.
“Don’t...”
“Don’t...”
One plea came from Gu Qingyao, while the other was screamed by Bai Youran.
Both were desperate for Mo Beihan to stay away.
Bang!
The violent collision sent both of them flying through the air!
“No...” Seeing Mo Beihan struck down as well, Bai Youran shrieked as if she had lost her mind. As she ran toward them, another truck roared past, and a piercing scream sliced through the air.
Pinned to the ground, Gu Qingyao watched as Bai Youran’s slender frame was tossed into the air by the force of the hit. The truck was heavily loaded, making it impossible to stop in time. The moment Bai Youran hit the pavement, the truck’s tires rolled over her lower body.
The massive wheels crushed her thighs, instantly turning her beautiful dancer’s legs into a bloody mess!
At the same time, half of her lovely face was shredded from the friction against the asphalt!
Having studied medicine since she was a child, Gu Qingyao knew Bai Youran likely wasn't dead, but her future would be a living hell!
She was disfigured and crippled!
And she had killed both her and Mo Beihan!
There were security cameras here! Ha ha!
As her consciousness began to fade, she turned her eyes toward the man before her!
Mo Beihan was slipping away too, but he gripped Gu Qingyao’s hand with all his remaining strength!
“Yao Yao! I Will Definitely Marry You In The Next Lifetime!”
