Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, mixed with a little snow, and the bone-chilling cold attacked every cell in the body.

After waiting for a while, the slow-moving Su Xue still hadn't arrived, so she went upstairs to get cigarettes and a lighter.

Sitting on the sofa, she lit a cigarette between her slender fingers. The thin smoke obscured her complex emotions. After finishing the cigarette, her emotions still hadn't calmed down. She took another one from the pack and lit it with her lips. Just then, the loud honking of Su Xue's horn came from outside the door.

She stubbed out her half-finished cigarette, got up and walked towards the door, grabbing a black umbrella from the doorway.

He walked straight to the passenger side of Su Xue's Mercedes.

The heavy rain splashed all over the place. Su Xue said, "Big sister, tell me what's up and why I came to pick you up? Where are you planning to go having fun?"

Su Xue knew Tang Junyao well; unless there was something special, she wouldn't bother to pick her up, especially not to the Imperial Garden, Ji Hancheng's place.

Unless there's a place I absolutely have to go.

Tang Junyao casually joked, "Let's go to Suixin Cafe to see Ji Hancheng's rotten love affairs."

Su Xue turned her head in surprise: "What do you mean?"

Seeing Su Xue's bewildered expression, it was clear she didn't understand what he meant: "Don't just stand there, let's go, I'll take you to see him and you'll understand."

Upon hearing the sound, Su Xue slowly turned around to start the engine, glanced at Tang Junyao again, and then turned back to drive.

She was genuinely confused; was she supposed to go fight against the third-ranked opponent?

Su Xue drove quite fast this time, and with Tang Junyao guiding her, the car arrived at the coffee shop quickly.

Following the room number given to her by the stranger, Tang Junyao pushed open the door and went straight in, with Su Xue following behind.

A woman with milk tea-colored curly hair was already seated in the private room, wearing a limited edition Chanel suit, with a white down jacket hanging on the coat rack by the entrance.

She stirred her coffee slowly and elegantly, her delicate brown sugar caramel tea-colored heart-shaped nail polish sparkling. It was clear that this woman had dressed up meticulously, probably to outshine her.

Indeed, my down jacket, which cost over a thousand yuan, looked very cheap compared to hers.

Su Xue entered shortly after, looking at the woman in the seat with surprise, "Lu Man, what are you doing here?"

Lu Man remained calm and composed, saying, "Miss Su is here too. Is Miss Tang afraid I'll do something to you? She even brought someone to protect you."

Miss Su didn't like hearing this, and took a step forward, "You.................."

Tang Junyao interrupted her, patted her hand, and whispered in her ear, "Go downstairs and wait for me. If you stay, you'll limit her performance. I want to test her skills."

Su Xue didn't want to go, afraid that her best friend would be bullied. Although she didn't know what Yao Yao thought of Ji Hancheng, she was sure that she would feel a little awkward and uncomfortable when her ex-girlfriend came to her door.

Seeing that Su Xue didn't move, Tang Junyao pushed her again before finally pushing her out the door.

After the door closed, Tang Junyao didn't order coffee. Instead, she poured herself a glass of water and held it in her hands to warm them.

She didn't speak to Lu Man immediately; after a moment, she slowly asked, "How should I address this young lady?"

Lu Man was displeased with her feigned aloofness and said arrogantly, "Just call me Miss Lu."

"Oh, what did Miss Lu want to talk to me about today?" She went straight to the point.

Lu Man smiled slightly, and without beating around the bush, commanded even more arrogantly, "Leave Ji Hancheng." A check was placed on the corner of the table and pushed in front of Tang Junyao.

Tang Junyao, still holding the hot water to warm her hands, nodded in apparent agreement. She picked up the check, glanced at it, and then looked surprised before placing it back on the table. She countered, "Miss Lu is quite generous with 100 million. So, in what capacity are you making this request?"

Lu Man wasn't embarrassed at all, and was full of confidence. "Master Ji doesn't like you. If you leave now, you can still earn 100 million. It's worth it. Don't think that you can secure your position as Mrs. Ji and become a phoenix just because you slept with him. You are not good enough for him in any way."

She wasn't angry. A scene flashed through her mind. She took a sip of water and continued warming her hands: "Hmm, that seems to make sense. So, Miss Lu thinks I'm not good enough for him in any way, then who is? You? And who gave you the confidence to think that every part of you is worthy of Ji Hancheng's heart?"

Lu Man hadn't expected her to be so sharp-tongued and unyielding, and her face contorted with anger. "You..."

Tang Junyao, ever the sharp-tongued one, retorted, "First, you don't even know your own identity before asking me to do things. Who gave you the audacity to say you can't even name yourself? Let me give you a hint: ex-girlfriend, casual sex partner, mistress—which one do you think you are? Second, you seem a bit dim-witted. Wouldn't I be richer if I clung to Ji Hancheng? Do you think I'd even bother with your paltry check? Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about Ji Hancheng's net worth?"

Lu Man thought this woman was a shrew, daring to say anything. She gripped the check on the table tightly and glared at Tang Junyao: "So you really are after money?"

Seeing that she was angry, she was also happy and continued, "Aren't you? You went to such lengths to make me leave Ji Hancheng, is it true love? Do you even believe that yourself? You dared to ask me out today, which means you must have investigated my actual relationship with Ji Hancheng. So, according to the current legal relationship between Ji Hancheng and me, no matter which one of you is involved, you're the other woman, understand? It's one thing for you to know you're the other woman, but you even went out of your way to announce it to the whole world. You're so shameless, do your parents know?"

Lu Man's arguing skills were no match for Tang Junyao's, and she stammered with anger. "You...you're just a vulgar shrew. Don't think that just because you slept with Master Ji, I did too."

Full of urges to argue, Tang Junyao didn't care at all. "So, are you a shrew from a wealthy family? Are you comparing who slept with Ji Hancheng the most? Is being a mistress now considered honorable in wealthy families? And are you trying to say that you slept with him the day you bought birth control pills at the pharmacy?"

Lu Man, who was confused by Tang Junyao's scolding, readily replied, "Yes, that was the day."

Tang Junyao chuckled, her laughter mocking, "Miss Lu, aren't you overestimating Ji Hancheng's physical abilities? He could make me pee all over in one morning. Do you think his thing is made of cement or steel bars? How can it stay erect and full of life all night? If he were to do two things in one night, he would have collapsed like an eel long ago. How can he still make you feel good? Use your brain before you lie. Keep those kinds of thoughts to me after the divorce. I don't have time to argue with you now that I'm gone."

He turned back at the door and said, "By the way, don't send me random text messages to call me out in the future. I'm pretty busy. I won't hold it against you today. Goodbye."

Without giving Lu Man a chance to speak, he rattled off a bunch of things, which made her so angry that she threw everything on the table onto the floor.

Her distorted features were hideous and extremely ugly. Originally, she wanted to persuade the woman to leave Ji Hancheng so that she could take the position of Mrs. Ji as soon as possible. Who knew that this woman was a lunatic who talked nonsense and dared to spit out anything.

They even bluntly stated that Master Ji was incapable.

As I walked to the door, I saw Su Xue laughing so hard she couldn't stand up straight. I knew without a doubt that she had been eavesdropping.

Tang Junyao glared at her best friend, who was watching the show with anticipation, and pulled her wrist. "Let's go. Still want to watch the show?"

Su Xue was still laughing, but she couldn't hold it in and burst into laughter again.

"Sister, you want to be looked down upon? Do you want to be thought of as crazy? Pay attention to your ladylike image."

Su Xue put her hands on her hips, almost laughing herself to death. "Big sister, you're telling me you're a lady, but the way you were just now..." Then she laughed again.

Tang Junyao couldn't bear to watch any longer and, disgusted that she didn't want to be made a fool of as a monkey, simply left on her own.

"Wait for me, okay? I won't laugh anymore. You're so cute. You actually said that Young Master Ji is no good, and even said he was like an eel lying down. Tell me, how can you be so talented?"

Tang Junyao didn't want to talk about him, so she nudged Su Xue and said, "Hurry up and get the car, I'll treat you to hot pot."

Su Xue quickly went to get the car.
