Going home for Chinese New Year, I squeezed onto a bus with three energetic young women.

"I don't believe your mother's bullshit!"

Ai Tianbi's face was contorted with rage, her fingers trembling as she pointed at Zhao Min on the ground.

This statement, though crude, perfectly captures his current mental state.

Down the steps.

Zhang Qian tiptoed and whispered in Bai Li's ear:

"Back when Xia Qing shamelessly harassed you every day, the girls would gossip behind your backs, saying that a super-rich guy like you had never eaten anything good."

She gestured with her small mouth toward the booth, her face full of disgust.

"I've learned a lot from coming out today."

"Wang Wei is even more ruthless than you. He's been protecting that swill bucket like a precious treasure. What kind of swill food is this?"

Bai Li was delighted to hear this.

This girl may speak a bit roughly, but she's extremely accurate at shooting.

Wang Wei, standing to the side, felt utterly ashamed and covered his chubby face with his hands.

That's disgusting.

He recalled the days when he scrimped and saved to buy bags for Zhao Min, ordered takeout, and worked like a slave for her.

And now look at this woman who's using the excuse of "getting pregnant from her swimsuit running away" to brush off the man who's taking her in.

This physical discomfort actually lessened Wang Wei's hatred for Ai Tianbi.

Men's empathy will be heightened to an unprecedented level when they experience being cheated on.

Looking at Ai Tianbi now, Wang Wei even felt a little sorry for him.

He only lost money and a few years of relationship, but this guy almost became a father unexpectedly, having to raise someone else's illegitimate child.

Just as Wang Wei was preparing to uphold humanitarianism and magnanimously watch the drama unfold.

Ai Tianbi, sitting in the booth, lost her temper again.

He ripped off his black mask, revealing his face, which was flushed and purplish-red.

"Fuck your mother Zhao Min!" Ai Tianbi jumped up and down, pointing at Zhao Min's nose and cursing angrily, spitting everywhere:

"You fucking lied to that idiot Wang Wei, fine, but you're coming to lie to me too?"

Wang Wei, standing at the bottom of the steps, looked utterly exasperated.

The tiny spark of pity that had just arisen was shattered by those words.

Not a buddy?

Who are you calling an idiot?

I'm here to sympathize with you, you big green turtle, and you turn around and use me as a stepping stone?

"Serves you right!" Wang Wei raised two middle fingers at the steps and cursed mercilessly.

"You brainless Jiahao, you were born to be drained dry by this kind of scum! You should just die!"

After being betrayed by Ai Tianbi, Wang Wei felt relieved of his last bit of psychological burden.

This is what they call "evil people will be punished by other evil people".

The booths were a complete mess.

Faced with Ai Tianbi's rage, Zhao Min burst into tears.

She rushed over without hesitation and grabbed Ai Tianbi's trouser leg.

"Brother Tianbi, please let me explain!"

Zhao Min tilted her head back, her makeup completely ruined by tears, and strained her voice:

"It really was an accident. It was just our baby's destiny. You have to believe me, okay?"

"I don't believe you for a second!" Ai Tianbi took two steps forward, her eyes blazing with anger.

"Weren't you just yelling that you wanted to kill this bastard in your belly? Fine! Want me to help you?"

As she spoke, Ai Tianbi actually picked up an empty wine bottle next to her and pretended to smash it down.

Zhao Min was so frightened that she shrank back, protecting her stomach with her hands, and screamed pitifully.

"Brother Tianbi, please don't do this!" Zhao Min stammered, trying to evoke emotions:

"You're my ideal woman, the one I've always dreamed of being with~ You even said I was your first love!"

It would have been better if he hadn't said it; saying it only made Ai Tianbi angrier.

"How dare you bring this up?" Ai Tianbi roared angrily.

"What the hell have I done to wrong you?"

"I had just returned from abroad when my family registered a company for me in the county town as a trial."

"Without saying a word, I immediately made you the legal representative of the company!"

"I've poured my heart and soul into you, aren't you satisfied?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Min rolled her eyes very subtly.

She's not some naive factory worker who's never seen the world.

Ai Tianbi's family runs an illegal mine in the next city; their reputation is terrible.

They came to Ping County to do nothing but shady, borderline businesses.

You want me to become the legal representative?

That's called making someone act as a lightning rod to take the brunt of the thunder!

If the safety supervision bureau comes knocking on our door one day, it will be the legal representative who goes to jail!

Most importantly, despite Ai Tianbi's repeated promises to hand over the company to her, not a single penny of the profits went into her pocket; she was only given a pitiful fixed salary.

Now that the truth has been revealed, the child's timeline doesn't add up at all.

Zhao Min gritted her teeth, determined to fight to the death and squeeze every last drop of profit out of Ai Tianbi before things completely fell apart.

Once we've squeezed him dry, just like we kicked Wang Wei out back then, we'll kick him out with one kick.

Then where to go?

Zhao Min glanced down at the wing tattoo on her inner thigh.

Of course, I'd go find my best friend's ex-husband.

Having suffered such a great injustice, as long as we can get him to acknowledge this child, how can we not get revenge?

Zhao Min's expression changed instantly.

She leaned limply against Ai Tianbi's legs.

"Brother Tianbi, of course I'm satisfied."

Zhao Min's voice returned to its usual sweet, cloying tone, her face full of innocence:

"But this child's death was truly an accident at the swimming pool; I'm a victim too."

She reached up and touched Ai Tianbi's trouser leg, her eyes brimming with tears:

"I don't want to have my first baby aborted."

Ai Tianbi got goosebumps from being touched and dodged away in disgust.

Zhao Min quickly followed up and offered her own solution:

"Brother Tianbi, this is what I think."

"I want to save up 100 million yuan to use as child support for my baby. Then I'll send the child directly to an orphanage."

"After we've dealt with the children's issues, and I'm all cleared up, let's start living together properly again, okay?"

The onlookers were completely shocked by this woman's bizarre way of thinking, which shattered their worldview.

Bai Li listened with amusement from below the steps; this woman was truly a talent.

Zhang Qian didn't hold back at all, spitting out a "Pah!" and clinging to Bai Li's arm while cursing:

"That bitch's scheme has backfired on me."

"Brother, no one would hire a woman like that at a cheap hotel near the train station, she's too dirty."

On the booth.

Ai Tianbi stared at Zhao Min, unable to understand where she got the nerve to make such a request.

Zhao Min didn't give him any time to think, striking while the iron was hot:

"I've already raised more than half of it, just the last 35 is needed. Brother Tianbi, what do you think..."

She stretched out two fingers and gently tugged at the hem of Ai Tianbi's clothes.

The meaning couldn't be clearer: you pay.

"Are you out of your mind?!" Ai Tianbi shook off Zhao Min's hand.

"I only have 50,000 yuan left in total, including cash in my pocket and my WeChat balance! Don't even think about it!"

"Oh, yes, there is!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Min's eyes lit up instead of being discouraged.

Completely disregarding her image, she jumped up from the ground.

"I'll cover the difference!"

These words were powerful and resounding, filled with righteous indignation.

Ai Tianbi was bewildered by her unusual behavior: "Huh?"

Before he could react, Zhao Min reached out and headed straight for Ai Tianbi's pocket.

Give me your phone!

Zhao Min moved with astonishing speed, snatching the phone from Ai Tianbi's pocket.

Then she skillfully opened a mini-program and frantically tapped the screen with her finger.

When she used facial recognition, she shoved her phone camera directly into Ai Tianbi's bewildered face.

Verification successful.

This set of movements was fluid and took no more than fifteen seconds from start to finish.

Zhao Min turned off the screen with great nonchalance and casually shoved the phone back into Ai Tianbi's hand.

Ding dong.

The phone screen lights up, and a short message notification pops up.

Ai Tianbi lowered her head and glanced at the screen.

He only glanced at it, but his eyes widened and his mouth gaped open.

The screen clearly displayed a line of text: Transfer successful, 350000 yuan has been transferred to Zhao Min's account.

"Three hundred and fifty thousand?" Ai Tianbi's hand holding the phone trembled uncontrollably, and her voice cracked:

"Where did this money come from? I don't have that much money in my account!"

Zhao Min, who was standing opposite, had already changed her expression and stopped picking her nose.

Her previous pitiful appearance had completely vanished.

She raised her chin, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked down at Ai Tianbi.

"Stinky Sky Blue".

Even the way he addressed her was downgraded, from "Brother Tianbi" to "Stinky Tianbi".

Zhao Min retorted confidently, "This is your reserve fund on the Yanwang Loan APP, and the limit is just enough."

"I initiated the process myself."

"So you only need to contribute 50,000, and I'll cover the rest! This is what I call self-reliance!"

Ai Tianbi was struck dumb, frozen in place.

He looked down at the text message repeatedly, then at Zhao Min's shameless face.

The string of reason snapped completely.

"Damn it!" Ai Tianbi's voice cracked completely, and his roar echoed through the hall.

"Zhao Min! This is a P2P lending platform, isn't it?!"

"Yanwang Loan"—just the name screams usury!

"You used my information to borrow 300,000 yuan at exorbitant interest rates to fund that bastard in your belly?!"

Down the steps.

Zhang Qian was astonished when she saw this.

The little girl hugged Bai Li tightly around the waist, her full curves distorted by the pressure. She looked up at Bai Li, her voice filled with an unbelievable coquettishness.

"Hey bro, look."

Zhang Qian pointed at the crazed Ai Tianbi above, her tone extremely serious:

"This Ai Tianbi isn't stupid! He actually recognized it as an online loan! I thought he was too dim-witted to recognize it."

Bai Li glanced down at Zhang Qian.

The little girl's eyes sparkled, filled with the joy of watching a mentally challenged person make a fool of themselves.

Bai Li casually patted her head.

"It really is a miracle." Bai Li said casually, adding, "He finally realizes how expensive his green hat is."

Above, Ai Tianbi had completely lost her mind.

He was cheated on, betrayed, and even publicly exposed that the child wasn't his.

He can tolerate all of this.

Because he felt he had a wolf-like nature deep down.

But he used his own ID to borrow 300,000 yuan at exorbitant interest rates and transferred it away!

This is practically asking him to die!

Ai Tianbi grabbed Zhao Min's hair and yanked her down onto the booth sofa.

"Fuck your mother Zhao Min! Fuck your mother!"

A fierce roar tore through the air of the bar.

Ai Tianbi's eyes were bloodshot as he stared intently at the woman struggling desperately in his arms.

"Is this how you treat me?"

"Is this how you fucking treat me?!"
