Sweet Wife Arrives: Mr. CEO, Please Pamper Me

Chapter 505: V385: You’re a smart person, you know very well how to choose... _3

Moreover, the clean status of a young lady allowed her to quickly integrate into the Southern socialite circle, experiencing a life far more comfortable than being an ordinary person.However, she soon realized that every circle has its own difficulties.

Due to her family’s financial situation and the need to keep certain matters low-key, she became the least prominent young lady, with not much "assets," in a circle where money speaks.

Furthermore, because of frequent school transfers in her childhood, she couldn’t keep up with her academic studies. Her struggling grades made her feel pitifully inadequate when faced with the high-education, high-quality socialite world that valued those talented in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.

Once again, she became the object of ridicule.

Confronted with the culture of some wealthy families—eating Western food, using knives and forks, tasting baked goods, playing tennis, swimming, writing calligraphy, and painting ink wash paintings—she didn’t know any of it. Every time she attended gatherings, she’d return with red-rimmed eyes, then furiously smash the "lady’s bedroom" items to pieces with a steel pipe.

Thus, meeting He Qimo and falling for him was completely natural.

As a student who knew nothing, she encountered an exceptional student in every way, despite his poor family background. During their time as classmates, once they were assigned to the same group, He Qimo pulled her to safety when she misadded a reagent during a chemistry experiment, causing a small explosion. Afterward, he criticized her but seeing her genuine ignorance, his eyes softened, and he said, "Forget it, I’ll tutor you."

Staring at the coldly handsome He Qimo.

She resolved to have He Qimo as her boyfriend for life!

Later, with some small tricks, she nearly endangered He Qimo’s sister to win him over. But it didn’t matter because no one realized, and because of that "rescue," He Qimo accepted her. They recognized their relationship as a couple and dated for several years.

...

Thinking about it now.

Liang Shiman could still smile.

Because until then.

She only resented her own family.

Why, while others were learning these things from childhood and openly enjoying everyone’s envy, she was perpetually fleeing and fighting... watching her cousins fight...

She just wanted to escape her past life, meeting He Qimo was both the most unexpected and fortunate event for her.

But... soon that dream was shattered...

...

She started secretly learning all the socialite behaviors under He Qimo’s influence.

The first time she heard Gu Zixuan’s name, it was not because Gu Zixuan was He Qimo’s new girlfriend.

Rather, it was on the way to a piano grading exam.

Holding the Level 4 certificate she had just received, she felt happy inside, considering herself the most successful in her family. She also thought she’d be more brag-worthy in front of He Qimo.

But then, she overheard two young girls beside her talking.

"Did you see? That girl who just passed by is Gu Zixuan, the top socialite young lady in Rong City. That little girl is amazing. First in the Level 8 Violin Exam, proficient in ballet, painting, you name it, and she won first nationwide in the Math Olympiad. Now she’s even got a Level 10 Piano Certificate. And she’s only fourteen, how incredible is that?"

"Yeah, and her dad is a high official, and her mom is from an illustrious literary family. Oh my, to be born in such a family and grow up to be so beautiful, she must’ve been a good person in her past life! Oh, we need to work hard too, or we’ll end up like that older girl in our group who’s only taking Level 4 Piano Exam at sixteen!"

Finally, as the two girls mumbled on and walked farther away.

She stood behind them, clutching that newly obtained Level 4 certificate tightly, and watched Gu Zixuan’s slender silhouette with her eyes shimmering and crimson...

Afterward... misfortunes came one after another.

As soon as she started college, her family’s pressure began.

They believed she was already twenty, old enough to marry.

Marriages among elite families sometimes happen early, and as the family’s business had developed enough, if an excellent match wasn’t feasible, a good-enough one should be. This way, her few sisters could marry even better...

It turned out that the harm to the eldest sister and the third sister’s predicament resulted in her becoming the stepping stone...

Liang Shiman had never felt so panicked.

And at that time, although He Qimo was admitted to Columbia University and was in his second semester, the future seemed uncertain as he might not graduate on time. As for He Qimo’s prospects, she had little confidence.

The days passed with the third aunt’s cold sarcasm, leading her into pain, madness.

Until Chen Baifeng’s provocation came: "If I’d known you were so useless, I would’ve let your eldest sister be the young lady. Your eldest sister married the son of a local coal mine boss! Do you plan to marry that poor boy and be driven away by your uncle as a commoner, live a hard life, and be harassed by local thugs who know your name?"

In that instant, she was profoundly provoked!

She knew the underworld, once you get involved, you can’t escape for a lifetime! Such a life and family... she never wanted to experience.

Speed dating, losing her virginity, getting married, breaking up with He Qimo—all happened at a dizzying pace.

However, people always make mistakes, especially when constantly provoked, it’s easy to act impulsively.

When she got married, her family members behaved themselves, but amid the lonely and painful life, her husband’s more indulgent than the underworld’s wealthy face cooled her down to realize she truly liked He Qimo, from the bottom of her heart.

So, after episodes of domestic violence, miscarriage, and her husband’s affairs...

She endured being slapped several times by the furious aunt before leaving the marriage.

She loved He Qimo, and she believed that the coldly painful and self-mocking He Qimo also loved her during their breakup.

She decided, no matter the cost, to clarify everything and be with He Qimo.

Do you believe in obsessive love in this world? She did.

Moreover, the entire process happened within three months, He Qimo wouldn’t possibly change his heart.

Yet she never expected, when she received her uncle’s threatening call, "Shiman, you’d better go back and remarry immediately, or you won’t get anything. The Liang Family’s young lady could be your sister too."

She angrily retorted, "Then let my sister do it! Do you think I wanted to be the Liang family’s young lady? I never wanted to be!"

She rushed to the United States.

Only to find He Qimo had a new girlfriend, and his lips curled in a faint smile.

But what stung her eyes the most... was that the girlfriend was Gu Zixuan...
