Jing Lihua stepped out of the car, accompanied by Zhao Liying. She glanced at the three-story European style mansion. A strong strong feeling of nostalgia hit her. When her mother had married her father, he was already in a relationship with Jing Tian’s mother. He Zhoyan, her stepmother, was a commoner so her paternal grandfather never allowed their marriage. Her mother no the other hand was the only daughter of the prestigious Tang family. Under the influence of greed, her father married her mother,…-

Jing Junhai laughed. "This is not a joke, right?" "If I wanted to joke, I could have waited to get home instead of calling you two here to give you the news." Jing Shuping threw the papers on the table. "But father, are you sure the news is true?" Jing Tian picked up the papers. "Could it be she is fooling us?" "She doesn’t have enough intelligence to think of a plan to fool us." "I have spies, loyal spies in Tang enterprise. The Tang enterprise failed in the last five projects. She used the…

Mo Liang wouldn’t stop laughing. He was such an ardent drama seeker. "Hua’er when did you learn all this?" Zhao Liying was equally surprised. "I didn’t learn it. I simply made up most of that myself" She looked nonchalant and took a sip of water. "You mean to say..." "Do you really think someone as stingy as Jing Tian could gift an $11,000 price necklace to someone?" "The necklace we bid for, it does resemble the one He Zongying was wearing but it was not the one. When Jing Tian forced…

"You as pretty as before" Jing Lihua grabbed a comb and tried to do unravel the nest of her hair. "See? That’s what I’ve been trying to tell that old man! Humph!" "She didn’t say you are not fat." Mo Liang laughed. "You..." "Don’t worry Zhao Liying. Fat people are human too. I know you are here to get an immediate reservation at your favorite Italian restaurant. Let me call my secretary to reserve a private room for us. We’ll leave once I get dressed." "Now that’s my Xiao Hua."…

Jing Lihua finally got to get a good night’s sleep after stabilizing the company. When she woke up, it was already evening. Ha...? How long had she slept? She walked out of her room in a huge teeshirt and pajamas while rubbing her groggy eyes and was scared witless when she found a ghost standing at the apartment’s door. Later it was revealed it was not exactly a ghost but her best friend. Who looked no less scary than a ghost. "When did I gave you my apartment keys?" "You never did." Zhao…

When Jing Lihua returned to the home, she received a message. Mo Liang: "Woah! My Xiao Hua is making quite a headlines today?" Zhao Liying: "Xiao Hua, I’m jealous. I’m a model. I’m supposed to appear in headlines more than you. Why is it you and not me?" Mo Liang: "Just come with me to dinner. I’m sure you’ll make the headlines tonight." Zhao Liying: "I’m not interested in scandalous fu*kboys." Mo Liang: "Too direct." Mo Liang: "But still, you’ll appear in the news." Zhao…

On her way to her apartment, Jing Lihua stopped by her mother’s tomb. She had brought a fresh boutique of flowers along with her. "Mother, thanks for granting me a second chance. I know you’ve always been watching over me. This time, I’ll not disappoint you. I’ll get back at all of those who treated you badly. I’ll not spare a single one of them. I’ll make you proud of me, mother." Jing Lihua bent to place the boutique. She was surprised when she noticed fresh rose flowers on her mother’s…

Zhang Min was pleased and tried to flatter Jing Lihua. "Mr. Jing might have overpraised me. I can never match the President’s competence." Jing Lihua tried hard not to roll her eyes. Ha! The ass licking bastard. But if we look it from the other way, the ass licking was what that had brought him where he was. "Good. Hurry up quickly and sign and let’s be over with this business." Jing Lihua yawned, handing over him the recruitment contract, purposely acting unconcerned. A disgusted look flashed…

The next day, fresh sunlight filtered through the window and lit the beautiful woman wrapped in a thick velvety brown blanket. Before Jing Lihua’s opened her eyes, she mentally prepared herself to find herself in the same slums she was reduced to in her previous life. Her eyes met the pink ceiling of her room. With a smile, she rose from her bed. She took a quick bath and dressed formally for the office. She quickly reached the foot of the apartment. "And you are...?" Jing Lihua glanced at the man…

Jing Lihua walked to the huge glass panes and gazed down at the bustling city at her feet. Her youthful round, puffy face held its innocent charm. But her eyes were replaced with that of a mature lady. Her incisive gaze was very different from that of the innocent gaze that the naive Jing Lihua held - the one who cluelessly fell in love. A series of misfortune taught her, matured her. Now, under her bewitching green eyes, hid a cunning fox ready to exploit its enemies and make them pay a hundred times.…
