We Agreed to Be Child-Free, So Why Is His Son Six?

The whole internet is calling Su Wanning the “wicked wife.”

They say that as soon as her husband died, she started fighting his six-year-old illegitimate son over the inheritance. They say she went ten years without having children after marrying him, yet now she’s hogging her late husband’s assets. They say the mistress is pitiful, the child is innocent, and Su Wanning is a heartless wife.

But no one knows that the supposedly pitiful mistress knew Chen Mozhou was married six years ago, yet happily pocketed the tens of thousands he sent her every month.

No one knows that her supposedly devoted husband left a will before he died, planning to give half his company shares to his illegitimate son and have a business partner hold them on his behalf.

And no one knows that of the 3.4 million yuan in question, 900,000 was salary Su Wanning had worked hard to save before marriage.

Her mother-in-law blocks the door, weeping and wailing: “You don’t have any children. It’s a waste for you to live alone in such a big house.”

Her sister-in-law guilt-trips her: “My brother’s dead. How can you still care only about money?”

The mistress’s lawyer threatens her: “Children born out of wedlock have inheritance rights too.”

Her husband’s business partner smiles as he makes an offer: “Sell me your husband’s shares for 300,000 yuan.”

Su Wanning has only one reply: “Then I’ll see you in court.”

From a dutiful wife deceived by her whole family to a clear-eyed woman who makes them all tremble.

As online abuse rains down on her, she sorts through six years of financial records. While her in-laws try to seize her house, she applies to freeze the assets. As the mistress plays the victim and tries to frame her, she uncovers 8.17 million yuan in illicit company transfers.

They think that without her husband, she has no one to rely on.

They never imagined that she herself would be her greatest source of strength.
