Family Conflict
Whoops, I’m Richer Than You All
On the night of my birthday, my boyfriend said he had to work overtime.
But his childhood sweetheart just posted a selfie on her WeChat Moments, holding his arm, with the caption: “No matter when, my brother will drop everything to come find me, hehe.”
My eyes burned and I couldn’t help but comment:
“What the hell are you giggling about?”
The Replacement Sister
I was the unloved young lady of the Marquis Mansion.
My father gave me to my elder sister’s fiancé and forced me to bear his child.
I was compelled to write a breakup letter to the man I loved.
“How could a Mountain Village Bumpkin ever be worthy of a lady of my station?”
Later, the bumpkin from that letter had risen to the highest ranks, and he mocked me with disdain,
“And you, an Abandoned Wife – how could you ever be worthy of me?”
My Husband’s Calculated Affair
Discovering my husband’s affair was a trivial matter.
At a dinner with friends, he, who had always been aloof, suddenly took the initiative to serve food to everyone at the table.
Later.
I heard him softly reciting a line from Roman Holiday in the study.
“In order to shake your hand, I shook hands with everyone.”
Ha!
