They say that I took advantage of the cold war between Shen Mo and his ex-girlfriend to design a situation where he ended up in bed with me, and that's how I managed to marry him.
They say that despite having three years, I never captured Shen Mo's heart, and I deserve it.
They say that out of jealousy towards Pei Nana, I even brought people to threaten her.
They say I'm a scheming gold digger who spent billions of Shen Mo's money over those three years.
They even say I knelt on the ground begging Shen Mo not to leave me, only to be abandoned in the end.
...
And then, I was "exposed."
My phone was cut off, and my address was leaked.
On social media, there were endless insults and curses directed at me.
"I thought she was a delicate flower, but turns out she's just a scheming bitch."
"Why doesn't this kind of person just go die?"
"I'm already at her doorstep; I'll take care of her as soon as she shows her face."
There were even more insulting words that couldn't be mentioned in polite conversation.
I didn't respond or retaliate.
I simply saved all the IDs of those spreading rumors.
Throughout all this, my ex-husband, who claimed to love me, never made any response.
It seems that a peaceful parting is out of the question.
When I saw Pei Nana again, she was wearing a red dress, holding hands with Shen Mo as they navigated through the social scene, laughing and chatting.
Tonight was a new product launch for a senior figure in the industry, and since I received an invitation, I naturally couldn't miss it.
As soon as I stepped through the entrance of the banquet hall, Pei Nana pulled Shen Mo over to greet me.
"Miss Xia, long time no see."
"I've seen so many negative comments about you online lately; they’re quite harsh."
"Have you offended someone?"
"Oh, let me tell you, just take a look at those words and that's enough."
"Please don't take it to heart. What if you end up feeling down again..."
In front of Shen Mo, she always acted sweet and obedient.
Seeing her like this, it seemed she had long forgotten my warning to her.
Well, after such a long time without any news, she probably thought I was just trying to scare her.
I smiled at her and said, "Miss Pei, you should take care of yourself first."
"What’s that saying?"
"If you want to keep something a secret, you must not do it yourself, right?"
Pei Nana's expression changed slightly but quickly returned to a smile.
She leaned against Shen Mo's arm and pouted, "Xiao Mo, look at her."
"I’m being kind and concerned for her, and she doesn’t appreciate it but instead acts all sarcastic."
I couldn't be bothered with her. After signing my name, I prepared to leave.
Suddenly, Pei Nana called out to me from behind and pulled out an invitation from her bag.
"Miss Xia, I forgot to tell you earlier that Xiao Mo and I are getting married in October. You have to come!"
Shen Mo frowned slightly and cast her a quick glance.
No one expected that not only did I accept the invitation, but I also chatted with Pei Nana for a while longer.
"You guys are really good at keeping secrets; I haven't heard a single thing."
"Unlike when I got married, your husband insisted on live-streaming the whole thing as if he was afraid no one would know."
"It was indeed quite glamorous, but it was exhausting. After the wedding ended, I slept for an entire day just to recover."
Pei Nana's face fell immediately.
I ignored her and turned to leave, casually tossing the invitation into the trash can.
I heard that Pei Nana had been pestering Shen Mo for a long time about the wedding details and finally got her wish for it to be live-streamed in its entirety.
She really is foolish.
She was completely immersed in the happiness of marrying Shen Mo, unaware that beneath her feet lay an abyss of unimaginable depth.
