    There's a reason why 110,000 people are following the story! Every chapter oscillates between a "battle royale" and a "revenge against an abusive husband." The scene where the female lead uses "innocence" as a disguise to lure her enemies into the ancestral hall and force them to kowtow before her mother's portrait was so satisfying that I was pounding my bed at 3 a. M.! It's already completed, so you can read it without worry. The extra chapters even include the "iconic scene" of the male lead kneeling on a keyboard begging for remarriage. You won't regret it!
