Ten years. We met in university. He was poor and proud. I was the girl who bought him dinner and pretended she was not hungry. After graduation we started a dessert shop together. He handled the business. I handled the oven. The shop became successful. He bought a car, then a bigger one. He began to spend more time with his friends, especially Jiang Lin. She was one of the boys, he said. She had no interest in marriage, so she was safe. I believed him. Then I became pregnant. He was happy for a week. Then Jiang Lin had a crisis, and he disappeared for three days. I lost the baby alone in the hospital. When he came back, he knelt in the snow outside my parents' house for a night and promised it would never happen again. I forgave him. My mother said I was a fool. My father said if I married him, he would disown me. I married him anyway, or almost did. Now, in the taxi, I opened my phone and looked at the wedding photo on my lock screen. We were both smiling. I deleted it. Then I called my cousin. "Qianqian, can I stay at your place tonight?" She was silent for a second. "What happened?" "I will tell you when I get there."0
