nIt was already 2:34 in the morning. Lu Mengjie couldn't sleep. Whenever she closed her eyes, the memory of Yong Liwei's betrayal was playing nonstop in her mind. She left a mental note to herself. She should never have married a man without knowing them first. She was rather immature back then. She had gone after someone just because of their beautiful looks. He may have a face that no one could compare to but his personality sucks. At least one part of him. A part that she was hating now.

nShe suddenly recalled what Sloth told her earlier that day. Wrath was in the country. It would only be a matter of time before he would hear the news of her marriage with Yong Liwei. Has this always been their plan? To play with her feelings?

nShe couldn't stop her tears from spilling this time. The words Yong Liwei said earlier, his confession only made things hard for her. Was this another one of his schemes to manipulate her? She didn't know what to believe anymore.

n…

nMeanwhile, inside Wei Sianqi's room. A small light was seen coming from the middle of the bed. The light coming from the phone was shining against the girl's face as her fingers tapped on the screen.

nAutumn Leaf: Zero, let's go on a date!

nMr.Macho: You can't even win against her and yet you're already asking her for a date.

nAutumn Leaf: I did not unleash my full power on her. It's hard to see her in pain.

nPikachuUseDig: Do not look at her then. Problem solved.

nAutumn: Shut up, bartender!

nDrinking Machine: Bartender who provides the world's greatest wine.

nPikachuUseDig: Thank you for the compliment.

nDrinking Machine: I was complimenting the wine, not you.

nLittle Bunny: Hello!

nZeroPerCent: Geez. More people are coming.

nDrinking Machine: Then get out.

nPikachuUseDig: Oh wow. A new member. Welcome.

nLittle Bunny: Thank you.

nDrinking Machine: Little Bunny, what's your height?

nLittle Bunny: I'm 5'1, why do you ask?

nZeroPerCent: No wonder Pika's being warm. He probably felt a fellow shortie. Another one on his eye level.

nDrinking Machine: Lmao. More shorties to come HAHAHA

nPikachuUseDig: Shut up human cockroach!

nForeverSpeechless: Shut up drunkard.

nLittle Bunny: Yeah! Shut Up!

nDrinking Machine: Fufu~ I hit three birds with one stone!

nMr.Macho: Maybe the stone cracked into three?

nOrdinary Human: What the hell is wrong with you people?! It's freaking 2:30 in the MORNING!!

nZeroPerCent: Good moaning.

nLittle Bunny: hehe~ I guess they literally had their eyes open 24

/7

nOrdinary Human: Seriously guys. It's quarter to 3!

nWei Sianqi's giggle was heard inside the room as she continued to chat with her new online friends. Sadly, Xia Liqin was not online but meeting the other members of the Cyborg Cats has already been fulfilling for her. Who knew, maybe she would be lucky enough to meet them in person?

nWhile she continued to chat in the group, her phone began ringing and she saw Xue Lihua's name appearing on the screen.

n

"Ugh.

" She knew why she was calling. She was probably going to ask about Yong Liwei's wife.

nWei Sianqi didn't want to answer the call, no, not when she had already decided to be on Lu Mengjie's side for the sake of being with her brother, Xia Liqin.

nIt was already late so why was she calling? She placed her phone on silent and decided to ignore Xue Lihua's call. She placed her phone under her pillow.

n

"I'm sleeping. I'm sleeping. No one's calling,

" she mumbled as she closed her eyes and pretended to sleep. She was not in the mood to chat anymore since she knew that Xue Lihua would only be disturbing her. That woman was persistent, she would not stop until her calls were answered.

nBack then, Wei Sianqi would quickly answer her calls and messages since she knew that Xue Lihua was a scary woman. She was the most persistent woman among all of Yong Liwei's women. She could already guess that even if the man has ended his contract with her, Xue Lihua would never stop with her schemes to make Yong Liwei's hers. She already knew what she could do so Wei Sianqi tried her best to avoid receiving the other woman's wrath.

nThis time, it was different. Lu Mengjie was there. Her future sister-in-law who came from one of the country's prestigious families, the Lu family. Aside from that, Lu Mengjie's half-brother was the head of the Xia family, a family who contributed the most to the country's military. None of his followers knew about Black Cat's identity, except for her now. Xue Lihua was a fool if she tried going against a rival she couldn't win.

nSince she felt her throat parched, Wei Sianqi left her room and went to the kitchen. On her way, she noticed Yong Liwei sitting on the sofa, a cigarette pressed between his fingers. He blew the smoke out of his mouth before he reached out to a bottle of alcohol on the coffee table.

n

"Mr. Yong, you're still awake?

" She walked towards him and as she did, the moment the cigarette scent entered her nostrils, she ended up scrunching her nose.

"What's wrong?

"

n

"It's late, you should go back and sleep.

" He didn't bother looking at her. The air around him was heavy.

nWei Sianqi had seen him like this a few times in the past and that was whenever he was troubled. He would smoke nonstop until he finished a pack of cigarettes while staring at nowhere. He had never shared his problems with her in the past so she already knew that he would just ignore her as usual.

n

"Your wife might wake up and look for you,

" she said as a reason to make him stop from consuming the cigarette.

nHe only let out a scoff without saying anything which made her wonder if… they fought. She knew that it was none of her business but she still couldn't help but wonder what happened? She could only sigh inwardly and leave the man alone in the room. She wanted to say something but she knew that it would be pointless when he was in that state.
