My Ceo Husband is Sworn Enemy

She seemed quite flustered, continuously looking outside while sipping her coffee as if she was afraid that someone would come to harm her.

The wind blew strands of her hair aside, and through the opened collar of her shirt, I caught sight of several evident scars on her collarbone.

Noticing me staring at her, she quickly covered her collar with her hand.

“Miss Liu, I was actually planning to do some shopping. Would you like to accompany me and we can discuss your husband along the way?”

“Oh, sure!”

Afterward, I took Liu Yu to the mall across the street.

While I was shopping for clothes, I also picked a few for her to try on.

Naturally, women can’t resist beautiful clothes. After a slight hesitation, she happily agreed.

And the clothes I recommended seemed to perfectly match her temperament…

A chic style paired with a miniskirt!

When she stepped out to look at herself in the mirror, I noticed the bruises on her exposed legs.

I understood instantly, but chose not to mention it.

This set of clothing was priced in the five digits. Without any hesitation, I bought it for her, and then we moved on to jewelry shopping…

As usual, I paid for everything.

As it turns out, Liu Yu was exactly as I was told. Although she is, nominally, the young mistress of the Qi Family, Qi Ming never really treated her as one.

She didn’t have any proper jewelry, and even lacked presentable clothing.

After shopping, I took her out for a meal.

After a hearty meal and drink, we finally started to talk.

Liu Yu, blushing, tried to give me money.

“Look, you bought me so many clothes today… Once I get home, I’ll repay you!”

“It’s really not that much money. As long as you’re happy, that’s what matters. From now on, we’re friends and can help each other out. Don’t worry too much!”

“By the way, you wanted to talk about Qi Ming. I want to know, what kind of trouble has he gotten himself into?”

“Liu Yu, are you unhappy in your marriage with Qi Ming?”

At this point, Liu Yu had let her guard down around me. At my question, her tears fell freely.

I handed her a packet of tissues.

“It’s laughable to think that as the young mistress of the Qi Family, my days are living hell…”

“Does he abuse you?”

Earlier on, I had asked Shen Yishu to hire a private investigator to investigate Qi Ming. The evidence the PI gave me pointed to this.

Qi Ming, this despicable man, not only kept mistresses outside but also frequently abused his legal wife.

Liu Yu came from a family without many relatives, and she had moved afar for her marriage. For this reason, she endured her husband’s abuses silently, never resisting him.

I was skeptical at first, but seeing the injuries all over Liu Yu, they were far worse than I had initially imagined.

She nodded, tearfully describing her difficult life.

“I gave birth to two children for him, yet he treats me worse than an animal. Whenever he comes back drunk, he beats me. Even when he’s in a bad mood, he beats me. You see, these burns on my body, they’re all from his cigarette.”

“Why don’t you call the police?”

“He threatened me, saying that if I dared to call the police, he would kill our two daughters! My poor girls are still so young, I must protect them at all costs.”

Liu Yu’s face streamed with tears, and each mention of her young daughters sent shivers down her spine…

“Why did you choose to marry him in the first place?”

“I was a fool in love, I let love blind me. I broke off relations with my parents, married him and moved far away. I never expected him to be such a man. I deserved it…”

In a fit of anger, Liu Yu slapped herself hard several times.

I stopped her,

“This isn’t your problem, it’s his problem! Don’t hurt yourself, if you get hurt, who’s going to protect your daughter?”

When Liu Yu heard this, she stopped crying and looked at me worriedly,

“Then tell me, what should I do?”

“Do you still have feelings for Qi Ming?”

“There’s no affection left long ago, he’s having an affair with another woman. She’s now the deputy manager of his company, and they’ve publicly appeared together. According to my mother-in-law, if that woman has a son, they’ll bring him home, and I’d even have to take care of her while she’s in confinement…”

“And you’re still tolerating this attitude?”

“I… After having two children, I don’t have a job. Qi Ming doesn’t give me any living expenses. If I divorce him, I won’t be able to support my two children, I won’t even have a place to stay! I don’t care if I’m homeless, but the children are still young, they can’t endure such hardship.”

“All these years, do you really not have a single cent? Or anything like jewelry that can be sold for money?”

“I did have some jewelry when I got married, but my mother-in-law said she would keep them for me, and took them away. She initially said she’d return them after I gave birth, but when she saw all my children were girls, she said that she’d only give them back when I had a son! I haven’t seen them till now.”

The words of Liu Yu made me feel a bit depressed and suffocated; I did not expect her living conditions to be so dire.

“What if one day, he decides to kick you out of the house for his mistress, what will you do?”

“I don’t know, if that day really comes, I might kill him just to protect my children!”

“So, here’s the thing, tomorrow night… I heard that Qi Ming and some people are celebrating at a villa in the hilltop. Here’s the address, the rest is for you to take control of.”

In fact, I’ve already made the plan a long time ago.

The only reason I asked Liu Yu out now, was just to test her determination.

Sometimes, if a woman wants to change her life, she needs to have a do-or-die determination.

She needs to save herself, and I… I just so happen to want to get Qi Ming out of the picture!

A partnership between two women, it’s a win-win situation!

After discussing the plan with her, she immediately agreed, but to prevent arousing suspicion, we didn’t add each other on WeChat, and kept our identities as strangers.

After we left the restaurant, we quickly departed in different directions and blended into the crowd.

After leaving the restaurant, I went straight to the police station, and reported a kidnapping case involving Song Zexi.

What I had in mind was…

Once the kidnapping is reported, it will become public knowledge,

Even if Gu Yuanzhou is bold, he wouldn’t dare to harm Song Zexi without getting caught, no matter how ruthless he is, he wouldn’t dare to ignore the law.

Having done all of this, I was waiting quietly for everything to unfold.

Six o’clock in the evening!

Ding Yinuo came home early.

He showed me the finished sample dress. Thanks to Jia Yuyan’s oversight, the dress was made with meticulous detail, it was a perfect copy of my design.

“It’s so beautiful!”

I can’t put it down.

Ding Yinuo also highly praised it,

“My Ayun, so extraordinarily talented. This work is definitely the finest, I am confident we can win.”

“You overestimate me!”

“Ayun, if we can win, our brand will again top the industry, becoming the hot topic.”

Ding Yinuo gazed at me tenderly, he gently brushed my hair strands, and whispered,

“You know? I have noticed you very early, your clothes, your demeanor, were all different from people of your age, you were so beautiful, a unique kind of beauty…”

“Wow, when did you start noticing me?”

“I can’t remember which year, but I distinctly remember you in a rainbow-colored dress, from afar, it looked like you were wearing a rainbow.”

“That was junior high… You’ve liked me for so long, are you a bit of a pervert?”

“Ahem, I was young then too! That’s not being a pervert, that’s called the awakening of love!”

Just as Ding Yinuo was about to embrace me, a sudden ringtone interrupted us.
