In the chilly living room, her five-year-old son glared at Zhou Mei in disgust and shouted, “I don't want a bad mom like you! I only want Aunt Lin Xue to be my mom!”
Watching the ungrateful boy, thoroughly spoiled by her in-laws and the mistress, Zhou Mei trembled with rage. She tried to discipline him, only for her in-laws to beat her brutally.
Her father-in-law roared, “This is my house! Get out, now!”
In the ensuing chaos, she was cruelly shoved down the stairs, left in a pitiful state.
In her previous life, Zhou Mei was soft-hearted and timid. She was deceived time and again by this family's honeyed words, spent half her life swallowing her grievances, and met a miserable end.
Now that she had finally come to her senses, her heart had turned to ice. She would never again foolishly give everything to them.
Her husband was cold and selfish, her in-laws were tyrannical and cruel, and her son was ungrateful and impossible to raise. So she would cut ties with them all!
She filed for divorce, sued her vile in-laws, and gave up on her ungrateful son.
Since he was so set on having another woman as his mom, she would give him what he wanted and never let him bother her again.
When she was at her lowest, her best friend Tian Qiu made a bold entrance and stood up for her.
Free from that toxic family, Zhou Mei joined forces with her close friend. Together they made money, staged a comeback, and gave her ex-husband's family a taste of their own medicine. She grew rich at lightning speed, lived life with dazzling brilliance, and rose to the top!
