Tang Su and Lu Han were working with the police on preliminary investigative procedures when Wen Jie, pleased with her success, entered her home in high spirits, only to find the place reeking of alcohol, with bottles and jars scattered all over the floor.

Wen Jie’s smile froze on her face as her husband, sporting a large beer belly, staggered toward her upon hearing the door open and stood still in front of her.

Before Wen Jie could react, a loud slap landed viciously across her face.

“You damn unlucky woman, I went through so much trouble to get you that job, and you lost it after how long? Losing the job is one thing, but now you’ve started staying out all night too, haven’t you? What kind of game are you playing with me?”

By morning, the man’s drunkenness had subsided somewhat, but not his anger.

“When have I ever not come home at night? I left the house at three in the morning. Why did you wake up so early today?” Wen Jie, having been slapped, didn’t dare to make a fuss and helped her husband to the living room to sit.

There was no helping it; the man was the pillar of the household, and he indeed had paid to get her the previous job through connections, and it seemed like their days as a couple were getting better.

But then their large dog got out of the house and killed someone else’s dog. Other times it had happened, her husband just paid some money, and the matter would be settled.

This time, however, they hit a snag.

The small dog was dead, the other party had called the police, their large dog was put down, and her husband was detained for several days.

After much difficulty, she pulled strings to get her husband released. He even went to apologize and grovel, but the other party had a heart of stone, insisting on getting justice for their dead little dog.

Just compensating them with money wasn’t enough; they also had to pay a price and were stripped of their right to own a dog.

That man seemed to know the law very well.

He even hired a lawyer and was determined to take them to court.

Initially, the man told her to just focus on her work, which could have brought in a tidy profit. Naturally, Wen Jie intended to do her job well.

But she had no idea she would fall victim to someone like Tang Su, a calamity of a person.

That Tang Su was just like a smiling tiger.

Always eager to collect the sanitation fee and the management fee, it wasn’t until the end that Wen Jie realized that despite her young age, this girl would not stand for being slighted in the slightest.

Short-sighted with no tact whatsoever.

In the end, Wen Jie actually lost to this girl, losing her job and once again becoming the pitiful creature in the house, subject to her husband’s beatings and scolding at will.

And she didn’t dare to fight back.

After all these years of marriage and still not being able to produce a child, she had angered her in-laws to death.

No matter what, her husband still had an income, whereas she couldn’t even get unemployment benefits.

Living hand-to-mouth was such torment.

“So where did you run off to?”

“Of course, I went to get back at that bitch Tang Su. Look at what she’s done to you, driving you to drink again, and she got rid of my job as well. If I don’t get my revenge, I truly won’t be able to swallow this insult.”

Ever since she lost her job, Wen Jie could neither eat nor sleep well. She had to get her revenge on Tang Su, no matter what.

While her husband said that a gentleman’s revenge could wait ten years, Wen Jie couldn’t wait that long.

At her age, she couldn’t afford to wait. Who the hell knows if she could even live another ten years.

“What did you do?” Chen Guang suddenly sobered up and frowned at Wen Jie.

“I didn’t do much, just splashed some paint on her car and then threw the waste blood, and some rotten innards that they couldn’t sell at the slaughterhouse all over her car.”

These tactics were something Wen Jie learned from watching television.

She knew that Tang Su had money. A quick wash or simply buying a new car would resolve this seemingly tricky problem.

Even so, the frustration she had pent up in her chest for so many days was finally released a little, and she felt refreshed now.

Plus, even if they called the police, no one would trace it back to her.

“You unlucky nag, what use is your half-hearted action? You’ve only managed to tip them off and complicate things. Here’s what we’ll do: I’ll call Biaozi later and have him pick you up in the afternoon. You better lie low for a while,”

Chen Guang was furious. He had already gathered his people and was ready to make his move, but now it had to be delayed because of this foolish woman’s meddling.

That brat Ye Sichen had vanished, and his plan was to catch all three of them and give them a harsh life lesson about not being overbearing when right.

They needed to understand the saying ‘forgive and forget.’

If they didn’t get that, they couldn’t blame others for being ruthless and tearing off the facade to deal with them harshly.

Wen Jie: “…”

Wen Jie wondered, is all this really necessary?

But seeing how serious Chen Guang was, not looking like he was joking, Wen Jie could only nod in agreement.

Seemingly worried only about making herself feel good and happy, Wen Jie did not consult her man. Just like a child who had done something wrong, she went to the kitchen silently to make breakfast for Chen Guang and then cleaned up the house.

Chen Guang picked up his phone to call his bros.

At that moment, he received another call. After a few words from the other end, Chen Guang’s face changed, “Really? That kid has such high status and identity? No wonder he dared to defy me like that.”

“Fine, I’ll let that brat off this time, but as for that Tang Su, continue to keep a close watch on her. She dared to play me, I’ll make sure she understands the consequences,”

What was most important was that the little girl had cost his wife her job, adding new grievances to old grudges. He would make sure she paid for all of them when the time came.

Little girl, hmph—

After completing the preliminary procedures, Lu Han made the final decision to write off Tang Su’s car. With a single phone call, he arranged for someone to take care of the matter.

Going through the scrapping process was easy, especially since there was a specialist handling it, and Tang Su didn’t need to worry about a thing.

Still, even though it was handled, Tang Su felt a bit down, unable to know who exactly was retaliating against her with such malice.

Seeing Tang Su’s gloominess, Lu Han wanted her to find something to do.

“Later, I’ll call Sun Qing to accompany you to pick out a new car. Take this card, it’s an early New Year’s gift from your boyfriend, how about that?” Lu Han teased her.

Tang Su shook her head, instinctively refusing. They had just started dating, and it hadn’t been long. How could she have the nerve to accept such an expensive gift from him so soon?

Even a car of average price would cost at least over a hundred thousand.

That would be Lu Han’s annual salary. Tang Su didn’t want Lu Han to spend so much money on her.

“What does shaking your head mean? You don’t want the gift, or you don’t want me…” Lu Han purposely paused, making Tang Su anxious.

Tang Su pouted, it was neither of those, okay?

“I’ll think about buying a car once I’ve adjusted my emotions. I don’t need to go to the office every day anymore, anyway. Having hired competent staff, I, as the boss, can now lie back at home and make money quietly,” Tang Su said.

“Alright then, when we return from visiting relatives in Beijing, I’ll personally go with you to choose one,” he agreed.

“Mm.”

Tang Su insisted that Lu Han take back the card, and he listened to her, putting it away for now.

He didn’t want to pressure Tang Su; since she needed to take things step by step, he was more than willing to comply.
