Lin Wantang spent five years working as an unpaid maid in the Zhao household.
She cooked, washed dishes, and waited on her in-laws. In return, her husband cheated on her, her mother-in-law treated her with contempt, and the family assets were transferred away. One winter, at the age of thirty, she was thrown out with only 8,400 yuan to her name.
When she opened her eyes again, it was seven days before she was due to register her marriage.
This time, at the wedding, she projected her ex-husband's online loan records and proof of his infidelity onto the big screen. Two hundred guests witnessed it firsthand as his whole family fell apart on the spot.
She called off the wedding, got her betrothal gifts back, and went to work at her best friend's milk tea shop.
Half a month later, she doubled the shop's profits with a set of improvements.
A month later, she opened her first shop of her own.
Three months later, her ex-husband showed up with his mistress, begging her to forgive him.
Lin Wantang leaned against the counter, stirring the ice in her drink without even looking up.
“Sorry, I'm busy counting money. I don't have time.”
In her previous life, she was the perfect wife in everyone else's eyes. This time, she had only one goal: make money.
No romance, no playing the saint, no looking back. Every penny she earned was her own security.
