"Xu ng, you still don’t believe ?" Qin Zhuzhu looked at him disdainfully. In the past, she had looked up to him, thinking he was a great man. But now, she only saw him as a ridiculous fool who easily believed a white lotus’s lies. His actions had beco more and more annoying and hateful. She wished to have nothing to do with this jerk of an ex-husband.
In her eyes, he was nothing but a piece of useless trash. He couldn’t compare to Shentu Jing—his wealth, his power, his influence, his looks, his eyes, his body, his attitude, the way he cared for her...
Ahem... What am I thinking? Why did I suddenly think of Shentu Jing? Qin Zhuzhu wanted to knock her head against the wall.
"As I expected, you still believe Bai Qianhua. Well, if that’s the case, there’s nothing I can do. Since my husband threatened you and blackmailed you, you’d better return my five billion in one month. You’re not even worth a cent of my hard work!" Qin Zhuzhu turned around to walk away.
Since this ex-husband didn’t appreciate her sacrifices, her pain, and the hardships she had endured for him and his Xu family, there was no point in being nice to him. No point at all!
"Qin Zhuzhu, wait!" Xu ng called after her.
Qin Zhuzhu sighed and turned around to face her ex-husband.
"Now what?"
"You can’t be that ruthless! My sisters, they are—"
"They’re weak and can’t stand being held captive?" she finished his sentence with a mocking tone. "Xu ng, think about it yourself. Who’s more ruthless? You or ? Your sisters or ?"
Xu ng was shocked to the core and lost for words. Every word she said smashed his head, slapped him in the face, and attacked him from all sides, leaving no path to retreat. He had never expected her to be like this!
"If you hadn’t treated like hell, I wouldn’t treat them like this! Xu ng, compared to what they and you did to , this is only a small fraction," With that, Qin Zhuzhu walked off proudly, leaving her useless ex-husband behind.

It took Xu ng so ti to recover from his shock. Then he quickly contacted his assistant to verify what Qin Zhuzhu had said.
"Mr. Xu, I’ve found the girl from the nightclub. Your ex-wife’s words are true," the assistant reported.
When Xu ng heard that, he dropped dejectedly into his car seat. The phone slid out of his palm. Bai Qianhua really lied to .
"Then what about my sisters? What they did...?" Xu ng asked again, his voice quivering.
"It’s all true, sir," the assistant hesitated but decided to confirm it.
The Xu family had never gotten involved with criminals, especially people from the underworld. They weren’t powerful enough, and because of Shentu Jing’s suppression of his company, Xu ng had lost a lot of money and business deals.
The Shentu family could have involvent with the underworld and deny it when asked because they were filthy rich, with connections all over the country and even overseas.
One month... Xu ng pondered over it. He had a choice now: give up his properties, wealth, and business in exchange for five billion yuan, or give up his sisters.
Xu ng had never smoked before, but now he felt an urge for a cigarette.

anwhile, Qin Zhuzhu was feeling much better. She had let her anger take over today, which was why she could boldly say all those words. Xu ng deserved it.
She wondered how terrible he must have felt when he found out that his precious Bai Qianhua had lied to him. Heh, serves him right.
Why did I suddenly think of Shentu Jing?
He had lied to her. She had no idea he was Shentu Jing, the tycoon of Shengjing. Suddenly, she rembered her grandfather telling her to stay away from the Shentu family. He hadn’t told her why, but perhaps it was because of their internal conflicts.
Before eting Shentu Jing, she had heard rumors about the Shentu family. Everyone seed scared and respectful toward them. The Shentu family seed to hold so unseen power in Shengjing, alongside the Qiao family.
She rented a new apartnt and settled down there, planning to live there temporarily until she could find a better place.
DING DONG!
Her doorbell rang. She wasn’t expecting any visitors, so who could it be?
When she opened the door, her eyes were greeted by a large bouquet of flowers. The sweet scent of fresh blooms lifted her mood, and she smiled. A young girl stood in front of her door, dressed in orange overalls.
"Hi, Miss! I’m from Duo Duo Flower Shop! These are for you!"
"What is this?" she asked the flower girl.
"Miss, these are roses, lilies, orchids, and dahlias. They’ve already been paid for," the girl explained.
"I think you’re mistaken. I never ordered any flowers, and who would send flowers? The address must be wrong," Qin Zhuzhu chuckled, trying to wave the girl off.
The girl looked at her phone to verify. "Are you Miss Qin Zhuzhu?"
"Yes?"
"Then it’s correct! Miss, please sign here," the girl handed her a pen.
Qin Zhuzhu signed the parcel, and the girl left. Who sent all these flowers?
---
The next day, soone sent her takeout food for breakfast. That’s strange... How did this person know my favorite food?
Another day later, soone sent her dried fruits and nuts.
Qin Zhuzhu was baffled.
The other tenants started to gossip. The arrival of the gifts was big and ostentatious.
"This new girl has many admirers!"
"It could be the sa person. I wonder who the lucky guy is,"
"I wish I had a good grandson like that!" an elderly woman living next door said.
Another day later, a box of white chocolate with raisins and fruits was sent to her door.
Every day, soone would send her als or gifts. Qin Zhuzhu tried to catch the person, but the courier had no idea who the sender was.
From far away, three heads popped out from behind a bush, spying on her.
