Chapter 7 Modified:

The day before I was murdered, Zhang Tao lost money gambling and called me again to borrow money. This time he wanted to borrow five million from me. The amount was too large, and I did not lend him the money. This led to him conspiring with my wife to take over my assets and ultimately cost me my life.

What I never expected was that the two of them were conspiring to kill me while naked in my bed.

Zhang Tao first asked my wife for money, claiming he needed five million for an investment. My wife was extravagant with her spending and never had the habit of saving money, so she couldn't come up with such an amount.

"Jia Yi, you don't want us to live a life of secret affairs forever, do you? Don't you want to be with me openly?"

"Of course, I always have! I wanted to divorce Xu Hao, but you wouldn't agree."
