For three years of marriage, she was nothing but a free housekeeper. Her husband called her dowdy, her mother-in-law called her useless, and even the ancestral lacquerware she treasured was smashed under her mistress's feet like trash.
On the day of the divorce, she signed the papers and burned her wedding ring in front of him. She didn't take a single cent from the Lu family.
"Without the Lu family, you'll have to beg in the streets!"
He sneered, waiting to laugh at her when she ended up destitute.
But he could never have imagined...
She returned to traditional lacquerwork and restored a thousand-year-old lacquer box that museums clamored to buy for millions.
With her mastery of mother-of-pearl inlay and gold detailing, international collectors flew in overnight to compete for her works.
At the World Intangible Cultural Heritage Competition, she crushed every master, put Chinese lacquerwork on the map, and sold one piece for the astronomical price of 300 million!
Her ex-husband knelt at the door of her studio with a bankruptcy agreement in hand, his eyes red as he begged to get back together. "Wanwan, I was wrong. Please come back!"
She rolled gold dust between her fingertips without even looking up.
"You think you're worthy of touching my lacquerwork? Get lost. Don't dirty my studio."
Divorce wasn't a dead end. It was the beginning of her dazzling rise!
