A sliver of comfort finally settled in Hua Yusen’s heart. All he needed was proof that this woman hadn’t wanted to end up where she was—that she was simply trying to get her revenge.

When you pay too much attention to a woman you don’t dislike, especially one with such breathtaking beauty and charm...

The deeper, more unspeakable reason, known only to Hua Yusen, was that he wanted to test if he could become a true man.

The light refracting from the crystal chandeliers illuminated every corner of the ballroom.

Zhao Nuanyue wore a shimmering, silver-red silk slip evening gown.

Though Zhao Nuanyue was thirty-eight, it was as if time had forgotten her. Her skin was fair and supple, her eyes bright and clear. Two small dimples, which deepened with her smile, gave her a very sweet look.

Hua Yusen stood on the second floor, and when he looked down, he saw Zhao Nuanyue in the grand hall, dancing with one man after another.

Her dancing was exquisite. Every gesture was imbued with a captivating charm.

Hua Yusen’s eyes followed her every move. For the first time, he thought, ’So this is how beautiful a woman can be.’

The friend across from Hua Yusen saw the look in his eyes and asked in a low voice, ”Hua, you’ve got good taste. That woman is a famous socialite in our high-society circles! If you like her, I can figure something out!”

Hearing his friend’s words, Hua Yusen shook his head, his expression flat. ”That won’t be necessary.”

Seeing Hua Yusen say this, the man didn’t dare say more. Who knew what Hua Yusen was really thinking?

All night, Zhao Nuanyue was like a little bee flitting from flower to flower, weaving her way between different men.

She smiled coquettishly, her every move alluring.

Yet who could know of the pain and helplessness hidden behind that radiant smile and graceful form?

Zhao Nuanyue had drunk a lot and had already gone to the restroom to throw up several times. Only in the solitude of a place like the restroom could she drop all her pretenses. The moment she walked out, Zhao Nuanyue was once again that infinitely charming socialite.

She associated with different men, hoping to get various forms of help from them so she could get her revenge.

While some men would sleep with her and disappear, others grew attached and gave her bits of information.

Although it wasn’t very useful, something was better than nothing! She always believed that one day, she would have her revenge.

Clutching her handbag, Zhao Nuanyue walked out the main doors. She had been drinking and couldn’t drive, so she decided to walk back to her nearby residence.

She stumbled along, one unsteady step after another.

Zhao Nuanyue staggered along the concrete path. It was late autumn now, and in her slip evening gown, she was shivering from the cold.

But what was even colder than her body was her heart.

She had endured for so many years, but she could never escape Zhao Jinghai’s grasp. ’What do I have to do to get my revenge?’

She had only graduated from middle school. She had no higher education, no proper job, no survival skills. Aside from this pretty face and alluring body, she had nothing!

The cold wind whipped through the air.

Zhao Nuanyue hoped the cold wind would clear her head a bit.

Walking in high heels was difficult for Zhao Nuanyue, and combined with the alcohol, she was stumbling. So, she took off her heels, held up her dress, and kept walking.

A car approached from behind. Zhao Nuanyue quickly moved to the side of the road. With her great revenge not yet achieved, she didn’t want to die. She wanted to hold onto this wretched life to avenge her brother and herself.

But as she moved to the side of the road, the car also veered to the side, pulling up to block her path.

The glare of the headlights hurt Zhao Nuanyue’s eyes. She shielded them with the hand holding her high heels.

Zhao Nuanyue squinted, trying to see the person inside through the glare, but she couldn’t make out anything at all.

Just as Zhao Nuanyue was racking her brain, trying to figure out who it could be, the car door opened. She saw a tall man with strong, handsome features sitting inside.

Zhao Nuanyue was certain she didn’t know this man.

”Heh, and who might you be?” Even drunk, Zhao Nuanyue could instinctively show her best side when facing a man.

Hua Yusen looked at Zhao Nuanyue. Time must have forgotten this woman. Nearly twenty years had passed; he was already middle-aged, yet she was still as radiant and beautiful as ever.

”Even if you don’t tell me who you are, we can just assume we don’t know each other. Please move, I need to go,” Zhao Nuanyue said with a light laugh. Her bright, beautiful eyes were moist and glistening, as if they could hold all the stars in the sky.

Hua Yusen continued to look at Zhao Nuanyue, then said, ”If I can help you get your revenge, will you be my woman?”

”Huh?” Zhao Nuanyue was stunned by the man’s words. She had met shameless men, suave and charming men, and men who claimed to be paragons of virtue. Their appreciation for her was only skin-deep, yet they insisted on justifying it with a laundry list of reasons—the height of hypocrisy.

Those men wanted to sleep with her, but they would never say it directly, nor would they make a straightforward promise to help her.

This man before her felt very direct to Zhao Nuanyue. But she, Zhao Nuanyue, was a woman who had seen it all, who had met countless men. All she owned was this beautiful body, and it was the only thing she could use.

It was Hua Yusen’s first time doing something like this, and he felt a bit awkward. But his years of practicing his Qi Cultivation Skill allowed him to maintain a calm and composed expression.

”You don’t believe me? Or you’re not willing?” Seeing Zhao Nuanyue’s silence, Hua Yusen frowned and asked, ”Or was I not clear enough for you to understand?”

Hearing Hua Yusen’s words, Zhao Nuanyue found him hilarious. ’So straightforward, it’s almost comical!’

’Does a man like this really exist in the world?’

Zhao Nuanyue was curious. She found herself wanting to know what kind of man he was.

”I’m willing, and I believe you!” Zhao Nuanyue nodded. ”Help me get my revenge, and I’ll be your woman!”

”My woman, and mine alone. You can’t associate with other men anymore.” Hua Yusen looked seriously at the infinitely charming woman, and his heart, usually as steady as a rock, actually began to beat faster.

Maybe it was the alcohol, maybe it was exhaustion, or maybe Zhao Nuanyue truly just wanted a rest. She nodded and said, ”Alright! As long as you help me get my revenge.”

Hua Yusen held out his hand. Zhao Nuanyue took it and got into his car.

From that day on, Zhao Nuanyue moved into a luxurious manor. She went from being a busy little bee flitting among the flowers to a canary in a gilded cage.

But it was such a beautiful cage that Zhao Nuanyue was happy to be inside it. Plus, from her cage, she could watch Hua Yusen trip up the Zhao Family, taking revenge on them step by step.

Hua Yusen would discuss every step of the revenge against the Zhao Family with her. At those moments, Zhao Nuanyue would feel exceptionally happy.

The happiness this man brought her was not just about the passion in bed. It was the thrill and satisfaction of watching her enemies be destroyed, little by little, right before her eyes.
