After the divorce, the aloof female CEO was filled with regret.

Hearing her words, a disdainful smile curled at the corner of my lips, full of mockery. I said go east, but she insisted on going west. Now she's even going abroad to chase after her husband, and she's still trying to threaten me into obediently coming home. From what she's saying, she wants me to come back like a concubine in the imperial harem, waiting for her to favor me?

Ha, what a truly despicable woman, even worse than in her past life!

I pried open her tightly entwined fingers one by one, my eyes blazing as I stared straight at her, a deathly smile playing on my lips.

"You're disgusting. You're blatantly cheating on me, and you expect me to agree? Do you really think I'm out of my mind to want to spend every day with a cheating woman? When you come back, we'll get a divorce, you idiot."

Jiang Yuwei and I ultimately parted on bad terms.

I returned home and began sorting through my mother's belongings.

Gazing at my mother's portrait, I gently stroked her photo with my fingers. My longing surged like a tidal wave, my nose tingled, and my eyes welled up with tears, but I stubbornly refused to let them fall. All that remained in my eyes was hatred.

"Mom, I will definitely avenge you."

“I will definitely make those scumbags and bitches pay the price, and I will never let them get away with it.”

In my past life, I only felt betrayed. I never imagined that my father had a mistress all along, and that mistress was actually my aunt. At that time, I was extremely angry and just wanted to bankrupt them.

In this lifetime, all I wanted was to ruin their reputations and make them unable to hold their heads high in public. But after arguing with Li Jingxiu, I suddenly realized that was far from enough.

The hearts of bad people are always more vicious than ordinary people can imagine.

I clenched my fists tightly, and it took a lot of effort to suppress the raging anger in my heart. My blood seemed to flow backward, and my gaze was extremely cold.

On Saturday, I didn't go home and there was no sound at all. Jiang Yuwei didn't even call me, and I couldn't be bothered to talk to her.

Just like in my past life, my dad called me on Sunday night, giving me countless instructions and reminders, as if we had never had any disagreements before and everything was as usual.

"Ye Qiu, go to the market at dawn tomorrow to buy the freshest vegetables. A lot of people will be coming to our house tomorrow, so you have to cook a big feast to make me look good."

I smiled and replied, "Okay."

Before going to bed, I turned off my alarm clock and phone and fell asleep peacefully.

When I woke up the next day, it was already 11 o'clock. I checked my phone and found more than 50 missed calls from Li Jingxiu, my aunt, my dad, and even Wang Ma called me.

I opened WeChat, and my dad sent me one angry voice message after another, so long that it almost filled the entire screen.

I laughed out loud and clicked on the last voice message. My dad roared through the phone: "Ye Qiu, where the hell are you? You bastard, I've already ordered food, you don't need to cook. You dare to act like this on your old man's birthday? Hurry up and bring Yuwei over for dinner, and don't mess around with me. If you don't come today, don't ever come back to this house!"

I laughed even harder, but my eyes were as cold as ice, and I replied to him, "Okay, I'll be right there."

Today is the day I take my revenge on everyone.

It'll start with my dad, and then it'll be Jiang Yuwei's turn. Today, nobody's getting away with this.

I strolled leisurely into the bathroom, took a long and refreshing shower, and then changed into a sharp suit, looking quite refreshed.

In my past life, whenever I saw Chen Yiran's gentle and refined face, I would always feel inferior, thinking that my striking features wouldn't appeal to him, and that I couldn't compare to his god-like, ethereal charm. He was many people's first love, and he easily captured Jiang Yuwei's heart. I even foolishly considered getting plastic surgery, just to win her favor, but ultimately gave up the idea because I was afraid of the pain.

But in this life, I don't care what she likes.

Upon arriving at the Jiang family home, I found it teeming with guests, a lively and bustling atmosphere filled with the clinking of glasses. Pushing through the crowd, I immediately spotted my radiant aunt. She wore a custom-made gown, elegant and poised, her hair styled in an updo—she was simply breathtaking. This starkly contrasted with my mother's weary and worn-out appearance, a testament to her hard work.

My dad stood next to my aunt, raising his glass and chatting animatedly with others. I looked around but couldn't find Li Jingxiu. I couldn't help but sneer inwardly: Didn't he say he was going to completely surpass me today? Where is he?

Just as I was thinking this, a gentle voice suddenly rang out: "Ye Qiu, you're here."

My aunt saw me, her face beaming with a smile, and walked towards me as if we were very close. "Where's Yuwei? Is she still parking?" she asked.

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with anticipation. After all, who wouldn't want to curry favor with the president of the Jiang Group?

Just as I was about to answer, my dad suddenly gestured for everyone to be quiet: "It's my in-laws calling, please wait a moment."

Everyone immediately quieted down and turned their attention to the speaker, my aunt looking on expectantly. My dad, driven by vanity, actually pressed the speakerphone button.

I raised an eyebrow slightly. In my past life, after much compromise and appeasement, my mother-in-law and father-in-law reluctantly attended my birthday banquet, which brought my father considerable prestige, and our collaborations flowed in like a river, yielding fruitful results. But in this life, given how I had previously angered my mother-in-law, my father's actions were undoubtedly courting death.

Sure enough, my dad asked, "Father-in-law, when are you coming today? It's so lively now, should I have Ye Qiu pick you up?"

However, the mother-in-law's cold and ruthless voice came through the phone: "I'm calling to tell you I'm not going. Don't call me again, and don't send any nonsense to my house. What kind of person are you to deserve my invitation to a banquet? If you really want me to attend, wait until your company goes public, you poor wretch."

Then the call was disconnected, leaving only a busy tone.

The air seemed to freeze instantly; all the noise vanished. Everyone's gaze was fixed on my father, filled with disdain, curiosity, and mockery. My father and aunt's faces instantly turned ashen, as if they'd eaten shit.

I couldn't help but laugh, for the first time thanking my mother-in-law for her pettiness and grudge-holding. She'd better attack my family hard to get revenge on me.

My dad looked embarrassed, but he still forced a smile and said to everyone, "Maybe my in-laws are in a bad mood today."

My aunt suddenly gave me a cold look: "Ye Qiu, did you upset your mother-in-law? She was fine yesterday, saying she was going to a banquet."
