To Save Your White Moonlight, You Harmed My Mother. I Ask for a Divorce, So Why Are You Crying? - Chapter 1:
Chapter 1: You Gave My Mom’s Life-Saving Medicine to Your White Moonlight—Let’s Divorce!:
“Mr. Ye, we did our best. My condolences.”
In the hospital morgue, Doctor Zhang, who performed the surgery, bowed with a heavy expression.
Ye Cang stared at his mother’s cold corpse. His fists were tightly clenched, and his eyes were bloodshot.
“I gave you the medicine to save my mother, didn’t I? Where is it?!”
He roared, his voice like a wild beast on the verge of tearing someone apart.
Doctor Zhang forced a bitter smile and said, “Mr. Ye, the medicine you provided was extremely effective, but Director Gu… Director Gu, she…”
He hesitated, unable to finish the sentence.
“What about Gu Yuyao? Speak!”
A strong sense of foreboding rose in Ye Cang’s chest as his voice turned sharp.
“Director Gu used it… to save her white moonlight…”
“BOOM!”
As soon as those words landed, Ye Cang exploded.
That medicine was the result of three years of painstaking effort, gathering rare herbs and refining it solely for the purpose of saving his mother’s life!
And yet, his wife took it to save her white moonlight?!
“Gu Yuyao, I was completely wrong about you!!”
Ye Cang howled toward the sky.
Hatred. Fury. Madness.
His life had always been full of turbulence.
Though born into the powerful Ye family in Dragon City, he was the most shameful illegitimate child, eventually cast out together with his mother.
Fortunately, Gu Yuyao’s grandfather, Gu Zhenghong, took them in.
Gu Zhenghong had been an old servant of the Ye family and received much help from Ye Cang’s mother in the past. After retiring, he quickly rose to power in Jiang City.
It was also Gu Zhenghong who knelt on the ground and begged Ye Cang to marry Gu Yuyao.
After marrying Gu Yuyao, to avoid exposure, his mother imposed a three-year restriction—he must not reveal his true capabilities during this time.
Ye Cang could only assist the Gu family from the shadows, even treating Gu Zhenghong’s illness in secret.
Yet Gu Yuyao took the life-saving medicine meant for his mother and gave it to her white moonlight?!
Indirectly causing his mother’s death!!!
[Ding!]
At that moment, Ye Cang received a text message.
It was from Gu Yuyao: “Oh, I forgot to tell you. I already used the medicine for mom. Brother Yanqing’s condition worsened and needed immediate treatment. Also, I won’t be home for the next few days. Take care of mom yourself.”
The tone was completely perfunctory.
“Crack!”
Ye Cang crushed his phone into pieces. His bloodshot eyes were filled with ferocity.
Gu Yuyao, you killed my mom, and you don’t even feel a shred of guilt?
Still calling him ‘Brother Yanqing’ so affectionately?
That name… he knew all too well.
Gao Yanqing—Gu Yuyao’s unforgettable white moonlight.
Seeing Ye Cang’s state, Doctor Zhang’s face changed. He had seen families lose control when faced with death, sometimes doing extreme things.
Fearing Ye Cang might do something irrational to Director Gu, he tried to advise him, “The dead cannot return to life, so please—”
“Who said the dead cannot return to life? Who said my mother is dead?”
Before the word ‘mourn’ even left his mouth, Ye Cang abruptly interrupted.
Huh???
His words were shocking. Doctor Zhang froze on the spot.
He had personally witnessed Ye Cang’s mother die on the operating table. Was Ye Cang completely out of his mind?
Ye Cang didn’t explain. He walked to his mother’s body and knelt down, kowtowing three times with a loud thud each time.
“Mother, your son has failed you. I couldn’t save you in time.”
“You told me to be good to Gu Yuyao… but I’m afraid I can’t keep that promise anymore.”
“You also said I shouldn’t practice medicine or fight for three years… but that, too, must be broken.”
“The three-year restriction is up. The trapped dragon shall rise!”
After the three kowtows, Ye Cang’s eyes had become sharp and resolute.
The dead cannot return to life—that applied to ordinary people, but not to him, Ye Cang.
As long as he elevated the Human Emperor Scripture to the fourth layer and gathered six extremely rare herbs, he could refine the Life Restoration Pill!
As for Gu Yuyao…
You caused my mother’s death!
This marriage is over!
Over the next three days, Ye Cang used all his herbs and medical skills to preserve his mother’s body from decaying. All that remained was to transport it to a cryogenic preservation center.
But before that, he needed to show Gu Yuyao what she had done!!!
He called Gu Zhenghong. Just as the text said, Gu Yuyao had indeed been out for three days and nights, not returning once.
Whatever shred of hope Ye Cang still had for her vanished completely.
This woman… didn’t care at all…
However, just as he returned to the Gu family villa, Ye Cang’s pupils shrank.
Gu Yuyao, who had disappeared for three days and nights, was back!
And she was tightly embracing a tall, handsome man in a suit who looked somewhat sickly.
Who else could it be but her white moonlight, Gao Yanqing?!
To be fair, Gao Yanqing was indeed extremely charismatic.
The way Gu Yuyao looked at him made everything clear. In the three years since their marriage, Ye Cang had never seen her smile like that. Yet now, in front of Gao Yanqing, her eyes gleamed with light.
Gao Yanqing’s facial features were striking—chiseled face, deep-set eyes, high nose bridge—a standard Eastern handsome face with the elegance of a Western model.
He always wore a gentle, natural smile. It was no wonder Gu Yuyao liked him. He was the type adored by people of all ages.
Three years ago, Gao Yanqing left without saying goodbye, claiming it was for medical treatment. Not long after, Gu Yuyao’s parents mysteriously jumped to their deaths.
Suffering the loss of both her childhood sweetheart and her parents, Gu Yuyao hit rock bottom.
That’s when Ye Cang appeared and filled some of the emptiness in her heart.
But later, no amount of companionship could compete with the yearning she held deep inside.
To Gu Yuyao, Ye Cang—the fake husband—could never compare to her white moonlight.
Ye Cang didn’t care whom Gu Yuyao loved. Marrying her and helping the Gu family had always been for his mother’s sake.
But he could not accept his mother dying because of this pair of scumbags!
Ye Cang strode forward and forcefully separated the two of them.
“Gu Yuyao! You’re finally willing to come back?”
He sneered coldly.
“Ye Cang? What are you doing here?”
Startled by Ye Cang’s sudden appearance, Gu Yuyao gasped.
Gao Yanqing was stunned at first, then smirked disdainfully. Instead of letting go, he pulled Gu Yuyao even closer.
Gu Yuyao didn’t resist, allowing herself to stay in Gao Yanqing’s arms as she said indifferently, “Ye Cang, don’t misunderstand. Brother Yanqing just had surgery, I was asking if he felt uncomfortable…”
“Come with me.”
Before she could finish, Ye Cang grabbed her hand and pulled her away.
As a daughter-in-law, and as the one responsible for his mother’s death, Gu Yuyao should kneel before his mother’s corpse and repent!
“What are you doing?! Let go… Ye Cang, you’re hurting me!”
Gu Yuyao struggled desperately.
“Let go of Yuyao!”
Gao Yanqing shouted angrily and blocked Ye Cang’s path.
“I know who you are—you’re just a substitute for me!”
He glared coldly at Ye Cang and said, “Since you’ve already seen everything, let’s be frank—no matter how good you are to Yuyao, she’ll never love you. She’ll always love me!”
“I left for overseas treatment three years ago. That’s the only reason you got to enjoy three years with her. Now that I’m back, you don’t stand a chance!”
Ye Cang didn’t respond, but Gao Yanqing arrogantly declared his dominance.
“Still, I can’t just let Yuyao be with you freely. Name your price. I’ll pay you whatever you want.”
He handed Ye Cang a check as if offering a handout.
“RIP—”
Ye Cang didn’t even look at it. He tore it to pieces on the spot.
“Get lost!”
He punched Gao Yanqing hard in the face.
“BOOM!”
Gao Yanqing hadn’t even reacted before blood splattered and he fainted on the spot.
“Brother Yanqing!!”
Seeing this, Gu Yuyao went berserk and screamed.
Then she turned to Ye Cang and roared, “Ye Cang, are you crazy?! So I used your mom’s medicine without asking. Is that worth holding a grudge and beating up Brother Yanqing?! Let me tell you—illness has priorities! Brother Yanqing’s condition was critical and needed urgent treatment. Your mom’s illness could wait. What’s the big deal?!”
In Gu Yuyao’s eyes, Ye Cang’s anger was just about the unauthorized use of the medicine.
But upon hearing that, Ye Cang stared at her in disbelief.
He laughed in rage.
So this was her so-called sense of priorities?
Was this something a daughter-in-law should say?
Because of you, my mother is dead!!!
“Gu Yuyao, is that how you really feel?”
Ye Cang stared at her intensely.
But Gu Yuyao didn’t even respond. All she cared about was Gao Yanqing. “Brother Yanqing, wake up…”
At that moment, Ye Cang completely gave up.
Mother, you misjudged her!
This Gu Yuyao is nothing but an ungrateful, heartless woman!!
All she thinks about is her white moonlight and doesn’t even realize she’s responsible for your death!!
A woman like this—what’s the point of staying married?!
“Gu Yuyao, we’re getting a divorce!!”
Ye Cang threw the divorce agreement he had prepared right at her face.
