She was a remarkable woman who cheated on him not long after their wedding. Thinking of the woman's tragic fate, Shen Meijie decided to keep her head down and behave herself.

But looking at these three kids who could raise hell anywhere, could she just call it quits right here? Blurb 2 The women in the family housing compound gathered to gossip.
