At this moment, both felt immense satisfaction from each other.
However, at this same moment, in contrast, He Meiwei felt completely hollow inside.
She was not very familiar with the downtown area, frantically hailed a cab, and only after getting on did she realize that the three people following her were actually after her lover, whom she had just met. Three women were also waiting for them there. Perhaps because those three were tall and strong, dressed not so gentlemanly, walking with a somewhat gangster-like swagger, she felt threatened.
In reality, they were not following her at all.
She heaved a sigh of relief, and her mood for shopping vanished completely.
Her mind still lingered on that cold, harsh "Scram."
It seemed she had completely ruined every good aspect of being called his ex-girlfriend.
She returned home feeling so listless.
Her wrist was still faintly aching as she stared at the ceiling, feeling like a failure in life. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoveI★Fire.net
How did it come to this?
All she knew was that she desperately wanted to regain everything she had lost.
She desperately wanted to re-earn his affection.
But in the end, she only pushed him further and further away.
Far away to the horizon.
Ultimately, he no longer loved her.
Ultimately, there was another woman replacing her in his life, his attention shifted to others, not her.
He Meiwei wanted to cry, to really have a good cry, but she couldn’t bring herself to do it.
She felt as if she no longer had any reason to live, no one to love her.
How could she go on living?
Lying back on her bed, scrolling through social media, she suddenly saw a comment: a certain celebrity couple was getting back together, and the man’s ex-wife could only turn the tables by marrying the father of the male celebrity.
He Meiwei suddenly felt there was a lot of sense in that. The netizens’ comment was meant as a joke, yet she took it seriously.
She thought, if she were to get together with Long Yubei’s father, wouldn’t Long Yubei and his wife have to call her mom?
The thought of becoming their elder, surprisingly, felt very satisfying.
If she really became Long Yubei’s stepmother, wouldn’t it infuriate him to death?
He Meiwei chuckled to herself, but then had to face reality again.
Long Yubei’s father, how could such a figure appear in a place she could easily access?
Clearly, it wasn’t realistic.
He Meiwei didn’t know how she came up with such an idea, but she couldn’t swallow her pride.
All night long, she didn’t sleep, her mind preoccupied with ideas on how to surpass Gu Lili.
The more she thought, the more insurmountable the obstacles seemed.
The next morning, when going to work, He Meiwei resigned from her job at Long Group; such a low salary couldn’t solve any of her problems.
She needed more than just to feed herself, she also had to pay for medical expenses.
This was a significant expense.
So, she had to find another way.
