Chapter 1
In late autumn, the chill hits people.

In Peijing General Hospital, the ward was completely white.

Qiao Xi caught sight of the noble lady wearing an orchid cheongsam sitting on the sofa by the window—Huang Yalian, her best friend 30 years ago, who later married Lu Zhanting and became Mrs. Lu.

Huang Yalian wears exquisite makeup and is well maintained. She is 48 years old and has no wrinkles on her face.

However, Qiao Xi, who was of a similar age, looked as old as six or seventy years old, with a thin body, a stooped back, and withered and yellow hair like messy dry straw. He looked haggard and neither human nor ghost.

"What did you call me to do?"

Qiao Xi and Huang Yalian haven't seen each other for 30 years. She is Mrs. Lu, but she has been reduced to a street cleaner. Her status is so different. What can I do with her?

"See for yourself!"

Huang Yalian got up, lifted the white sheet on the bed, and the body of a man in uniform slowly appeared in front of her eyes.

When she saw the man's face clearly, Qiao Xi covered her mouth in shock, her sunken eyes widened in disbelief, and the blood all over her body froze almost instantly.

It's Lu Zhanting!

That face as deep as a knife, majestic and extraordinary, seems to have not changed much from the handsome face of the man engraved in his heart and deep in his memory.

It's him!

I haven't seen each other for 30 years, but what I see now is his body?
Qiao Xi really couldn't believe her eyes, but the feeling of heartache would not lie to her, nor would the uncontrollable tears. The person with a cold and peaceful face in front of her eyes was indeed him.

Did the man she loved for 30 years die at the age of 56?
He is Lu Zhanting who is not afraid of gods and demons!

Known as the "cold-faced devil king", he is rebellious, ruthless, and thunderous. Whenever he goes out on a horse, he can make the enemy frightened.

But now, he closed his eyes forever.

"When he was dying, he kept calling your name, Qiao Qiao, huh, do you think he is stupid? With a wife as good as me, Huang Yalian, why does he still miss you, a street sweeper? 30 years! He has always had you in his heart. Even the Luojing Garden has been preserved and left to you. What is so good about you? A poor rural woman who betrayed him is worthy of his love ?"

Huang Yalian's sarcasm echoed in her ears, every word was utterly embarrassing.

Qiao Xi was shocked again. She was devastated and tried hard to restrain her emotions, but her heart was still overwhelmed by great grief.

"Zhan Ting..."

With a hoarse voice, he finally called out the name hidden deep in his heart.

He Dehe can make you never forget that I am just a stupid woman...

Qiao Xi was heartbroken, shed tears, and wanted to go up to see him.

"Get up! Don't stain him with your disgusting tears and your dirty paws."

Huang Yalian had been holding back her resentment all along, and at this moment, she poured out all her resentment and hatred on Qiao Xi.

Seeing her approaching the body, Huang Yalian forcibly pulled her away, slapped her hard, and pushed her to the ground.

"I'm not reconciled! I'm not reconciled! I've been with him for 30 years, but he misses you and loves you. Why?"

Huang Yalian's face appeared ferocious and distorted, "Heh...Qiao Xi, do you know? In fact, I spread the rumors about Lu Zhanting and Nurse Xiao, just to make you misunderstand him.

"Do you know why you were caught and raped by Lu Zhanting back then? Because Lu Zhanting has always loved you deeply, if he doesn't agree to divorce, your marriage will always be protected by law.

"So I drugged you, and let Lu Zhanting see with his own eyes how you cuckolded him, and made him give up on you."

"What?" Qiao Xi raised her gray teary eyes, shocked, "Why did you do that?"

At that time, she trusted Huang Yalian so much, but she actually designed her and framed her.

It was because of that incident that her fate changed dramatically, she was humiliated by Lu Zhanting, and she lost everything.
