    Reversal and reversal, this is definitely not the Ba Zong article you thought it was! Do you think this is a cool article about your ex-wife's counterattack? Wrong. Do you think this is the crematorium where the hero is chasing his wife? Wrong again. The most cruel part of this story is that the "scumbag" you think is actually the most affectionate person in the world; the "counterattack" you think is him secretly paving the way for every step. The female protagonist works hard to become rich in the system tasks, while the male protagonist works hard to become bankrupt in reality. Both of them are "doing good for each other" in their own way, but they push each other further and further away. The moment the truth was revealed, it was not a pleasure, but a pain. The pain of "he obviously loves you so much but forces you to hate him" can make you cry until three in the morning.
