The only thing that eased her was the fact that her new lover gave her a huge sum of money. This had allowed her to live a life of luxury for a period of time. However, he couldn't give her a status because his parents required him to marry a woman who could give him successor.
Thus, she had to become a mistress. It was the only reason why Yu Xin ended up in this forsaken dark room.
She couldn't show her face in public and all the humiliation she received only made her felt even more enraged. Her appetite disappeared and even her most favorite food tasted bland in her tongue. But in front of her lover, she always acted as if he was the best man in the world.
Going out and work on her own?
She couldn't do anything and even if there were some menial work, how could she reduce herself to do them? She refused!
Then, she found out that Yu Yan would be opening new store. She immediately called some people to create trouble there and paid a huge sum of money.
But where were the people she called?
The opening ceremony went without a hitch and everyone was instead praising Xingyan Company for having connection to Long Shu Ting.
"Yu Yan… Lei Xing Yi…" Yu Xin called out their names and smashed the bottle to the television with anger. She wanted them to live worse than her! How could she accept that she had been reduced to a mere mistress who could not show her face outside.
And yet they… they were receiving glory and everything!
She could not accept this!
Yu Xin took her phone. Her hands were shaking out of anger as she didn't wish for them to live well. Before long, she opened a website and posted a notice. Her lips curled up to form a cruel smile.
After this, she wanted to see how they would survive with so many people after their lives.
If she couldn't live well, she would make sure that they would have the same ending!
...
In other place, Bao Tu was now working as security guard. He didn't have money anymore and after moving to live at the edge of City A, he found a job offer to be a security guard in a nearby mall. Since it didn't really require any job experience or anything like that, he chose to pick this job.
As one of the heir candidates, Bao Tu naturally learned martial arts when he was still young. The skill proved to be useful as he could use it to be the guard of this mall.
The pay was not much but he could save up bit by bit to start over.
"Bao Tu, you can take a break now."
"Alright."
Removing his cap, Bao Tu sat down at the side. His eyes glanced towards the evening newspaper that had just arrived. For the security guard who didn't have any work, they were provided with newspaper so that they could read it to pass the time.
The front page of the newspaper was Long Shu Ting and Lei Xing Yi. His eyes widened as he picked the newspaper and started to read.
'Brother asked to come…?'
Bao Tu then recalled that Yu Yan must be working with Lei Xing Yi. If not because of that, there was no way she would ask her husband's brother to come to the place. Looking at the picture and the report, he understood that Xingyan Jewelry Store would be famous.
In fact, it might become one of the powerful business behemoth in City A.
He felt his mouth dry when he thought about it.
Thinking about how he used to be together with Yu Yan and the fact that she had the 40% profit share of AC mine… Bao Tu felt immense regret. If only he was still with Yu Yan, the company that was supposed to flourish would be his.
And yet, his name was now gone.
His uncle refused to allow him to return back to Bao Family from the moment he declared bankruptcy. In fact, his parents wished for him to return back and they would provide for him. However, Bao Wang refused.
Thus, Bao Tu had no other choice but to head out and earn a living on his own. It was hard but he had to work if he wanted to live.
"If only I'm not that stupid…"
The first time Bao Tu saw Yu Yan was when she went on a walk with her friend from the workplace. At that time, Yu Yan was forcing her smile because of some problems in the past, but she managed to laugh from the joke of the friend beside her.
At that time, he thought that she was really beautiful.
After investigating a bit about Yu Yan, he found out that she was one of the granddaughter of Kang Shu Jiang. Knowing that Kang Shu Jiang owned the mine, he chose to try his luck and got close to Yu Yan.
What attracted him to her the most was her face and beautiful smile.
But at some unknown point of time, Yu Xin appeared and her face was even more exquisite than Yu Yan. Bao Tu's heart was enraptured by the woman and soon, he forgot his original intention to Yu Yan.
The two sisters were similar, so he didn't think much about the matter anymore when he first hooked up with Yu Xin. Besides, Yu Xin was not as stuck up as Yu Yan who didn't even want them to kiss when they had just started to go out.
And when he started to hear about Yu Yan's glorious past, he started to despise the other party.
It was to the point that he loathed himself for trying to get such a woman.. He also felt thankful that he could get away from her before he got too close and earned himself a better woman.
