Jiang Jinzhu had been arrogant and domineering all her life. She loved looking beautiful and fashionable, and fancied herself a trendsetter. Behind it all, her husband had supported her like a tireless workhorse for ten years.
Pampered and adored by her husband, she thought only of enjoying herself and never gave him a second thought. Only when he died of exhaustion did she realize just how important he had been to her.
After living her life over again, she learned that she was the shallow, pretty little aunt in a rags-to-riches business novel: a vain woman who threw an entire family into chaos.
And she really had been just like that. Taking advantage of her husband's love, she spent recklessly until she wore his body down.
Watching the man go hungry until his eyes were sunken, all so he could treat her to a meal at a Western restaurant, brought tears to her eyes. This time, she could see her husband's sacrifices instead of thinking only of herself.
With a wave of her hand, she decided they would go eat hot pot together. She missed the hesitant look on his face. After the meal, she wanted to buy them a couple of drinks, but when she reached into her empty pocket, she realized she had no money.
Standing on a street in the 1990s, surrounded by lively shops, she and her husband didn't have a cent between them. She was dumbfounded. She'd forgotten how poor they were back then.
She quit the job everyone envied and opened clothing and beauty shops, saving up to buy a house in what would later become a major commercial district.
In this life, her husband wouldn't have to work himself to death. He could enjoy life with her. But it turned out he was born to work himself to the bone. He went off to work in construction and real estate, busying himself just to buy her luxury cars, villas, jewelry, and gems.
