“Before we got married?” Song Lihua sneered in disbelief.
She finally knew that she had married a scumbag.
Zhou Liangsheng’s family had a business. However, Song Lihua’s family wasn’t weak at all.
The two were considered a right match in terms of family.
The two had been introduced to each other through an agency. They had gotten married through this matchmaking.
The parents from both sides were very satisfied with them as a couple. The two had spent time together for a while before they had gotten married.
It wasn’t forced.
Both families had businesses, but both families weren’t big, so they weren’t trying to make a connection through the kids’ marriage.
If they found each other suitable, they would get together. Otherwise, they would just forget about it.
This was just a very ordinary matchmaking date routine.
As for the Song Family, even though their daughter was not the daughter of a wealthy and noble family, they had let her experience poverty.
She could get anything she wanted and buy anything she wanted.
They naturally hope that her life after marriage could be the same as the life that her family had provided her while she was still single.
They obviously didn’t want her to be with someone who couldn’t even afford to buy her a bag.
So, they wanted to find a suitable youngster in their social circle.
They noticed that Zhou Liangsheng was an excellent choice.
The Zhou Family had similar socioeconomic status as their family, and Zhou Liangsheng was talented as well.
They asked Zhou Liangsheng’s family and found out that Zhou Liangsheng was single. As such, they arranged for the two to meet and get to know each other.
Zhou Liangsheng then showed interest in Song Lihua.
The two then decided to continue meeting.
It all happened smoothly.
Song Lihua had never forced Zhou Liangsheng.
Honestly, Song Lihua met Zhou Liangsheng through a matchmaking session, so she didn’t actually like Zhou Liangsheng in the beginning, much less love Zhou Liangsheng.
She just thought that Zhou Liangsheng was a very suitable candidate, and she could try spending time with him.
She was fine without him and had no intention of courting him.
If Zhou Liangsheng had told her then that he liked someone else, then she would have never continued with their relationship.
If Zhou Liangsheng met Li Zhixiao after he started dating her and told her about it before they had gotten married…
She would have been able to leave without lingering feelings.
She couldn’t understand why Zhou Liangsheng would marry her when he was already dating Li Zhixiao.
Now, he had just disappointed two women.
But then, Li Zhixiao said, “I was already dating him before you two met.”
Song Lihua looked over at Zhou Liangsheng and said, “Zhou Liangsheng, what is she talking about?!”
“Back when we met, your family and even you said that you were single!”
“He wasn’t married, so he was single,” Li Zhixiao sneered and said, “His family looked down on my family for being too ordinary, so, they wanted to arrange a matchmaking session for him. They said that if he had insisted on marrying me, he would not get anything from the family.”
“Anyway, he has a younger brother. Their family is not worried about not having anyone to inherit the business,” Li Zhixiao said weakly.
“He told me the truth. If things have gotten to this point, how could I allow him to suffer for my sake?”
“However, we both love each other, and it’s impossible for us to separate. Therefore, we are still together. He said that he will divorce you and marry me after he inherits the family business.”
“And you trusted him?” Song Lihua said coldly, “Since he didn’t marry you from the start, how could you even believe in his words?”
“Why wouldn’t I believe him? He bought me a house and a car. He gave me money to start a cafe. He allowed me to do things I wanted to do. If he doesn’t want to marry me, why would he be so generous to me?” Li Zhixiao said confidently.
“In addition, after you married him, he still spent the majority of his time with me. There were many times when he told you that he was working overtime or having dinners with clients, but he was actually spending time with me. He had spent more time with me than he did with you.”
Song Lihua was so grossed out that she felt like puking.
Her marriage had been a lie since the beginning. It had been a mistake.
And she had been sharing her husband with someone since the very beginning.
Song Lihua wanted to puke.
“So that’s why you placed a curse to harm me?” Song Lihua asked.
Li Zhixiao’s facial expression changed. It turned out that Song Lihua had discovered the fact that she had placed a curse on the latter.
“I… I don’t know what you are saying!” Li Zhixiao quickly denied it.
“I am already here. I know everything. Why are you still denying it?” Song Lihua said coldly, “The exorcist you hired was defeated. He has lost all his abilities and can never be an exorcist anymore.”
“Look. I know all of these.” Song Lihua said, “I’m not lying to you.”
Li Zhixiao’s expression changed.
She then heard Song Lihua ask, “Why did you curse me? Were you trying to curse me to death so that you can marry him?”
“Let me explain,” Zhou Liangsheng said.
Since Li Zhixiao had already said everything, there was no reason for Zhou Liangsheng to keep a secret anymore.
“Zhixiao accidentally got pregnant.” Zhou Liangsheng said.
However, Zhou Liangsheng didn’t know that the pregnancy was not unplanned.
Li Zhixiao had done it intentionally. She had calculated everything.
Zhou Liangsheng did say that he would marry her.
However, if Zhou Liangsheng didn’t divorce Song Lihua, Li Zhixiao would never feel assured.
Actually, it was just as Song Lihua had said, Li Zhixiao did not actually trust Zhou Liangsheng.
She was really insecure.
How could she feel secure when Zhou Liangsheng had only provided verbal promises so far?
Therefore, Li Zhixiao had the idea of using a kid to trap Zhou Liangsheng.
She had been with Zhou Liangsheng for so many years, and there was obviously love between them.
She loved him and was reluctant to lose him.
She had been with him for so many years and wasted so many years of her youth for him. Would she eventually end up with nothing?
What if that happened? She kept on thinking about the what-ifs.
What if Zhou Liangsheng didn’t end up marrying her?
She had to find something that would guarantee that marriage.
However, if she couldn’t get married to him, she could stil fight for more benefits with a child.
Even if Zhou Liangsheng didn’t want to marry her, he wouldn’t abandon his child, right?
And so, Li Zhixiao tried to get herself pregnant with Zhou Liangsheng’s child.
After Li Zhixiao had gotten pregnant, she didn’t dare to delay telling the news.
If she told Zhou Liangsheng a few months later, Zhou Liangsheng wasn’t a fool, so he would have guessed that she had planned all this.
Zhou Liangsheng loved her for being “pure” and “clean.”
He had always enjoyed the memories of how their relationship started, and those were his most beautiful memories.
To trap Zhou Liangsheng, Li Zhixiao tried her best to maintain this image and made sure that she was still making Zhou Liangsheng feel that way.
After all, she was at a disadvantage.
Song Lihua and Zhou Liangsheng were legally married.
In addition, Zhou Liangsheng couldn’t always be beside her. He had to go home as well.
What if Zhou Liangsheng’s heart changed when he started spending more time with Song Lihua?
Therefore, Li Zhixiao knew that she had to trap Zhou Liangsheng; she must not make a wrong decision that would destroy this weak relationship.
