I awakened the Green Serpent bloodline of my family. Upon reaching adulthood, I must choose my gender once again. In my past life, to be with my boyfriend, I resolutely chose to remain a girl. I supported him and raised our children, accompanying him from a small business owner to the richest man in the capital. I raised our son and daughter to attend top universities. But on my fiftieth birthday, after eating the cake my husband made himself, I vomited black blood. My children watched from the side, with no intention of calling an ambulance. "Mom, just go peacefully. Auntie Jasmine will take care of us and Dad." "Yeah, being your child is really embarrassing." They relied on me for everything they had, yet they pushed me into the abyss without hesitation. When I opened my eyes again, I was standing in the ancestral hall. The patriarch handed me the yellow paper for choosing my gender. "Yingying, make your decision." 1 I took the yellow paper from the patriarch's hand and wrote down my name stroke by stroke. Once the last stroke fell, this decision could never be changed. The patriarch looked at me in surprise. "Have you really thought this through? You want to be a man from now on?" "What about your boyfriend? Can he accept you changing your gender?" As he said this, Ethan was standing outside the door, looking at me eagerly. He was an outsider, couldn't enter the ancestral hall, and couldn't hear what we were saying. I devoutly lit the yellow paper and smiled at the patriarch. "Grandpa, I've thought it through. Before I completely change my gender, please keep it a secret for me." "Alright, it's your own business, you decide." "The ceremony ends in a week. Your new ID will be sent over then." A week. I silently repeated these two words. In a week, I would have a brand new life, beautiful as a dream. Before that, I must deal with Ethan. After walking out of the ancestral hall, the man immediately grabbed my hand. "Yingying, you've sacrificed so much for me. I won't let you regret it." "Are you willing to form a bond with me?" I was stunned for a moment. Ethan never mentioned this in my past life. Is he also reborn? I asked tentatively. "Forming a bond isn't just marriage. Once the contract is effective, we can never be separated in this life." "Will you really love me forever and never fall in love with anyone else?" "Of course." The man looked at me affectionately, but I easily saw the familiar ruthlessness and ambition in his eyes. Exactly the same as when he poisoned me with his own hands in my past life. "Yingying, the thought of you possibly leaving me makes me feel like dying." "I beg you, promise me, okay?" My stomach cramped. As if the poison crossed time and was tearing my internal organs apart again. I suppressed all the bitterness and smiled brightly at Ethan. "Okay, I promise you." "I don't want to be separated from you either. Let's form the bond now." I cut a lock of his hair, entwined it with a lock of mine, and asked Grandpa Patriarch to burn it in the ancestral hall. "I, Ethan, tie the knot with you today as husband and wife, loving each other without suspicion." The patriarch hesitated: "Yingying, but aren't you...?" Thinking of my instructions, he looked at us with complex eyes, and finally just sighed deeply. 2 I watched the hair turn to ash in the brazier. Finally, I revealed a sincere smile. That night, Ethan discussed the wedding details with my parents. He had lost his gentle and refined appearance from the day, sitting at the head of the table, asking without looking up. "Auntie, when will you transfer the house and car to my name?" My mother's face darkened. "What do you mean?" "Let me be straight. My family has no money. Your family might have to cover the wedding expenses." "If you care about money, we don't have to have a wedding. I don't mind." "But after marriage, Qing Ying is my wife. Her house and car will be mine sooner or later. Isn't it the same whether transferred early or late?" Saying this, he put a chicken leg in my bowl and asked me triumphantly. "Right, Yingying?" My parents' gazes also focused on me. They knew this matter still depended on my opinion. "Yingying, you heard him. You haven't even married yet, and he already wants to seize our family property." "If you marry him, how will you live? Even if you continue being a girl, Mom and Dad can find you a good husband. Just nod, and we'll kick him out right now." My dad silently picked up a stick. Ethan hurriedly shouted. "We've already formed a bond! You can't go back on it! If Qing Ying doesn't become my wife, she can only die!" My parents were struck by lightning. Seeing my silence, they scolded me for being so muddled, so angry their heart conditions were about to flare up. I held my mother's shoulders to comfort her. They haven't seen Ethan's true viciousness and shamelessness yet. God let me live again to make me realize what the abyss truly is. I turned to Ethan. "My family's assets, except for this house my parents live in, are all under my name." "There are a total of sixteen villas, two courtyard houses, seventy shops, thirty-four cars, and six hundred million in savings." "If you want, I'll transfer them all to you. This one stays for my parents' retirement. Do you agree?" Ethan's eyes burned with greed. In the past life, he became the richest man solely relying on my support. He knew I had money, but didn't know I had this much money. He agreed immediately. "Deal." "But your parents have to write a will now. After they die, this house can only be under my name." I wasn't surprised by his greed. I did everything he said. When the last deposit was transferred to Ethan. A snake scale appeared on his left arm. "What is this?" "The token of the bond. When three snake scales appear, the contract will be completely effective." "Why wasn't it there before?" He muttered in confusion, then quickly shut his mouth. Seeing me penniless yet still looking at him calmly. Ethan turned his head somewhat guiltily. "You don't have to be unhappy. Isn't my money your money? I won't treat you badly. Only when money is in the man's hands can the family stand." In the past life, I initiated the bond. When he swore to treat me well, it was much more sincere than now. But what did he do in the end? A glass of poisoned wine sent me to the West. 3 With money, Ethan first bought himself his favorite heavy motorcycle. Then he swiped the card crazily, buying a pile of jewelry, designer clothes, and skincare products that only women like. Consumption records flowed to my phone like water. What he gave me was a gold-plated bracelet for 9.9 on Pinduoduo. I accepted it with a smile. Not a single word of complaint. Four days before the ceremony was complete, Ethan suddenly dragged me out of the room in the middle of the night. Wearing only pajamas, I was dragged to the hospital by him. "My sister was in a car accident. You have the same blood type as her. You must donate blood to her." Entering the emergency room. I knew, his so-called sister was Jasmine. Auntie Jasmine in my son's mouth. The woman Ethan and the children truly loved. The man grabbed the nurse about to enter the operating room. "Draw her blood. Save Jasmine no matter what." The nurse drew 400ml from my arm. Ethan frowned fiercely. "Wasn't it supposed to be 1000ml? Why stop?" The nurse looked at him troubledly. "More than 400ml is dangerous. 1000ml will cause this lady to go into shock. Besides, the patient inside isn't seriously injured, and the blood we ordered is on the way." "I don't care. Her blood is good, draw hers." "She's my wife. Don't I know her body? It's just 1000ml of blood, what's wrong with drawing it?" Onlookers whispered. "This man is really not a thing, treating his wife as a blood bag?" "Exactly, blood is blood, is there high and low grade? I think he just wants to kill his wife." "Sister, don't agree. It's not worth hurting yourself for others." I smiled and extended my arm to the nurse. "Draw it." "Ethan asked me for it, I must give it to him." The nurse looked at me in astonishment, as if saying I was crazy. The people who were fighting for me just now also turned their heads and cursed me for having no brain, saying good words can't persuade a ghost determined to die. I was unmoved. Watching the blood flow out of my body. How did Ethan know my blood was good? In the past life, he entered ICU with pneumonia, doctors said he wouldn't live. It was me who let my own blood to make medicine for him. That's how he survived. So in this life, even if the hospital didn't lack blood, even if Jasmine just lost some blood and wasn't in danger. He still insisted on draining all my blood to save his white moonlight. I lost consciousness drowsily, waking up with Ethan by my bed. I lifted his sleeve and saw the second snake scale on his left hand. Ethan saw that snake scale, eyes full of complexity, comforting me softly. "Yingying, I didn't expect you to love me so much. It's my fault this time, I'm sorry." "The doctor said you lost too much blood, miscarried, and couldn't keep your uterus. You can never have children again." I smiled. "Is that so? Let it go then, I don't care." "You're not angry?!" Seeing my indifference, Ethan's eyes were filled with anger. "That was our child! Why aren't you sad it died?! Why didn't you tell me earlier you were pregnant!" Would he have given up drawing my blood if I told him earlier? 4 And what's worth cherishing about Ethan's children? I raised them painstakingly, giving them the most luxurious life and the best educational resources. The son was smart but rebellious. The daughter was dull and obedient, but low IQ. Sending such two people to top universities, did it rely on their own efforts and talents? Everything relied on my ancestral bloodline and my support. But did these two ingrates have any gratitude towards me? Watching their mother struggle on the floor. Ten fingers scratching blood from the pain. They were still happily discussing where to take Jasmine for a trip. Thinking of this, I held Ethan's hand. "Ethan, it's already happened, what can we do?" "Fortunately, sister is saved. She is safe and sound. If you want children in the future, we can just adopt hers." "Is... is that so?" Ethan was shocked by my reasonableness. He seemed unable to figure out how I could sacrifice myself to this extent. But my proposal did no harm to him. So the man pulled me into his arms. "Yingying, how lucky am I to have a wife like you." "We will adopt Jasmine's children in the future. If you teach them well, they will definitely be successful." "When the time comes, let the children be filial to you. If they dare not listen, I will definitely teach them a lesson." He spoke sweeter than a song. But in his imagination, the one being taught a lesson would definitely be me.
