Yu Mei learned about the family’s bankruptcy while she was out shopping for luxury items with colleagues.
At the next moment, when she tried to pay, the transaction couldn’t be processed.
Yu Mei felt utterly embarrassed and went back home to question her parents.
Only then did her parents tell her that after she spread rumors about Lin Zhiyi in high school, Third Young Master of the Gong Family had warned their family.
That’s why her parents had forced her to apologize in public.
She thought this matter had ended there.
Who would have thought that Yu Mei’s family business would decline year after year, barely holding on until her college graduation.
In order to help Yu Mei find a good husband, the last of the family’s money was spent on getting her a job.
After all, the fashion industry is full of wealthy people.
Yu Mei wasn’t unattractive, and marrying a rich man wouldn’t be difficult.
After understanding this, Yu Mei couldn’t figure out what qualifications Lin Zhiyi had to get Third Young Master involved.
Her parents told her that Lin Zhiyi’s mother married Second Master Gong, so Lin Zhiyi was somewhat related to the Gong Family.
Again, it all came back to Lin Zhiyi.
Yu Mei never liked Lin Zhiyi, not just because she was pretty, but also because of her personality.
Too quiet.
When they were causing a ruckus, she stayed calm, appearing above it all.
In high school, Yu Mei loved to play and make trouble, being very rebellious.
She didn’t like anyone more special than herself, so she picked on Lin Zhiyi.
It started with small provocations.
Who knew she’d see Lin Zhiyi get into an older man’s car?
Yu Mei originally just wanted to see Lin Zhiyi flustered, but didn’t expect her to fight back.
Forcing her to be humiliated in public.
Later, her family went bankrupt because of Lin Zhiyi.
Yu Mei held a grudge, but she had no time for revenge then.
She needed to plan for her future.
Plus, with so much negative news about Lin Zhiyi online, Yu Mei thought she’d fall from grace sooner or later.
So she focused on herself.
After careful selection, she chose the newly appointed deputy director, now her husband.
Her colleagues said he was specially recruited from abroad, and his family was wealthy overseas.
Yu Mei made it her mission to get close to him.
He fell for her charms, and soon, she was pregnant.
Relying on her pregnancy, she married him.
She thought she could become a wealthy lady but discovered his wealth was just a facade.
He came from an ordinary family, earning scholarships to study abroad.
He interned with a good magazine abroad.
By surrounding himself with celebrities, he gained many opportunities to enter high society.
Step by step, he entered the domestic fashion scene.
Very inspirational.
He seemed like a capable man.
Success seemed inevitable.
Yu Mei thought so too when she first learned the truth.
This man could make money, had connections, and would only get more prosperous.
At least better than her bankrupt family.
But after more contact, her husband indeed used to be hardworking and ambitious.
For ordinary people, he was undeniably successful.
But in the face of true wealth, he was insignificant.
To enter the wealthy circle, even fifty years wouldn’t guarantee success.
He was also dissatisfied with his inability to climb the social ladder, so he resorted to unconventional means.
He was good at charming wealthy women.
Skipping over twenty years of hard work to reach his current position.
But as long as the madame wasn’t impressed, his position wasn’t secure.
