Xing Yiyue was a B-rated actress who managed to smitten Feng Tianhua after he rescued her from a sexual assault. Their first meeting was then followed by several coincidences that led to a romantic interest between Feng Tianhua and Xing Yiyue.

  Tang Moyu had met the woman several times, but she treated her with indifference and kept a safe distance from her. Even though she was aware that her fiance was foolishly in love with another woman, Tang Moyu had long prepared herself for this.

  She might not have experienced a romantic relationship in her life, but she could tell that the two were head over heels for each other.

  "You might be his wife, but you cannot be his lover," her mother had once told her.

  "Is that really alright, Mother?" Young Tang Moyu asked. She was confused as to why people marry for business or politics and not for love.

  "Because successful men cheat and you have to accept it, dear." her mother tried to explain. "The reason they have affairs outside their marriage is because they think they won't get caught. They also assume that even if they do get caught, they won't get in trouble, because they have more than enough resources to cover it up."

  "Moyu, do not believe in love. Do not let your heart cloud your judgement," her elder sister added.

  Tang Moyu didn't understand it at first, but now, at the age of twenty-four years old, she finally understood what her mother and her sister meant all those years ago. It was because men often don't bother about the long-term effects of their actions on others, only the short-term gains.

  Wealth, fame, and power are attractive to many women, who make themselves available to powerful men like Feng Tianhua. When powerful men such as businessmen are away from home for days and weeks at a time, which is often the case, loneliness and the desire for female companionship can trigger infidelity.

  In other words, it's easy for these men to find willing sex partners.

  Many men have positions that require a lot of responsibility and authority. They perform well under high stress, and they continually need and enjoy excitement or challenges to drive them forward. An affair gives them the same type of exhilaration in their private life, so she wasn't really surprised when she heard about Feng Tianhua seeing other women behind her back.

  As long as she holds the title of 'Madam Feng', those women weren't worth her time and attention.

  Tang Moyu had been working hard for the past three years as a financial planner for Feng Conglomerate and had seen the same scenario happening to other businessmen over the course of her career.

  This was why Tang Moyu, at her current age, didn't have any semblance of understanding of what a romantic relationship feels like. She found those sappy romance novels and TV shows exaggerated.

  What was so sweet about a man giving a woman flowers? Their beauty was fleeting as well as the 'love' of a man. What was so sweet about a kiss beneath the rain? People who stayed soaking wet would surely get a bad cold and get sick later, which was ridiculous in Tang Moyu's opinion.

  The only sweetness that Tang Moyu knew of in her whole life was the dessert she consumed after every single meal.

  In her slumped state, Tang Moyu could hear the heavy rain pouring outside. As the sound of the rain gets louder, the colder her heart gets.

  "Feng Tianhua, if there comes a day when you realized that you've wrong me today…" The tears that rolled down from Tang Moyu's eyes caught Feng Tianhua off guard. This was the first time he saw her shed tears and display an emotion that was different from her cold and impassive face.

  However, he quickly regained his ruthless facade with his eyes filled with hatred against her.

  "Wronged you? Tang Moyu, you are the one who wronged me and Xing Yiyue in this life!" He roared back at her. "You listen to what I say today, Tang Moyu because I'll only warn you once! Stay away from Xing Yiyue! Stay away from my wife!"

  The moment he uttered those words, everyone's mood changed completely. The air stilled into a shock of silence and Tang Moyu's eyes flew open. Everyone glanced at each other, unsure of what they heard.

  Did just Feng Tianhua call Xing Yiyue as his wife? Then what would happen to Tang Moyu now?

  Li Meili looked at Feng Tianhua, confused. A deep frown furrowed her brows while Tang Moyu stared at him in a daze. It was clear to her what had happened.

  Feng Tianhua betrayed her by marrying Xing Yiyue. That one thing she tried to work hard for the past two decades ended up in another woman's hands.

  Tang Moyu was beyond shocked. Her chest ached to the point where her breathing was painful. What would happen to her now? What would become of her now?

  Because of Feng Tianhua's love for Xing Yiyue, everything she had was taken away. Their families, the time they spent together as they worked hard to revive the Feng Conglomerate he had inherited from his father, the sleepless nights she spent burrowing her head into the strategic financial plans to help him meet his long-term financial objectives for the company.

  The long years of hard work and strict education she underwent were for naught because Feng Tianhua had simply cast her aside for Xing Yiyue.

  Wasn't she the one who worked hard and helped him all this time to reach the status Feng Conglomerate had right now? Wasn't she the one who reduced the spending, paid off the debts, and helped the company to save and invest for the future?

  Then why was another woman harvesting the fruits of her hard work right now?

  "And for you to call my wife a tramp?" Feng Tianhua sneered at her. "Shouldn't you be looking at yourself, Tang Moyu? To actually sleep with another man even before our marriage and carry a bastard… were you planning to let me wear a green hat before marriage?"

  A collective gasp could be heard around them as everyone looked at Tang Moyu with disgust.

  'Oh, my! It was Young Miss Tang who cheated on him?'

  'Did she actually plan to let Young Master Feng take responsibility for her bastard child?'

  'This is insane. And here I thought she would become Madam Feng.'

  The people around her… Tang Moyu felt disgusted and rage in her heart. They only swamped her because of the gains and favors that they could rip from her later. And now that she was being reduced to nothing, they were the first ones to throw stones at her.

  Seeing her pathetic state, Feng Tianhua scoffed and turned around, leaving her in a mess. The moment he turned his back on her, their worlds were severed forever.

  From then on, Tang Moyu swore she would never believe in the love of a man.
