This is the third year of Tong Le enduring humiliation and bearing the weight of her husband's infidelity with her best friend.
At this moment, sitting in front of her computer screen, Tong Le opened a secret folder filled with dozens of documents, all containing evidence of her husband Ke Wenjie’s betrayal—everything from chat logs to surveillance videos, even explicit footage. This collection of evidence had been accumulated over three long years during which she felt as if she were living a fate worse than death, forced to swallow the bitter fruit of her circumstances.
Tong Le and Ke Wenjie had been a couple since their university days. To outsiders, they appeared to be perfectly matched and deeply in love. Ke Wenjie was seen as the ideal boyfriend, husband, and even an impeccable son-in-law, especially since the Tong family was wealthy and well-known in their small town as prominent real estate developers.
The year they graduated from college, Tong Le and Ke Wenjie entered into marriage. Whispers circulated that Ke Wenjie was merely a son-in-law by marriage, given that the Tong family held considerable wealth. Tong Le often felt guilty about this perception, while Ke Wenjie maintained an indifferent attitude towards public opinion, insisting that his love for Tong Le was strong enough to ignore any gossip.
That same year, both Tong Le's father and mother fell seriously ill. Tong Le traveled to numerous major cities and hospitals but ultimately found no cure for their ailments. They could only rely on medication to sustain their lives. Outsiders referred to it as a mysterious illness with no clear origin.
With her father bedridden, the Tong Family Corporation could not remain leaderless. To care for her father closely, Tong Le had no choice but to hand over control of the family business to Ke Wenjie. This arrangement lasted for three full years.
With power firmly in his hands, Ke Wenjie became the head of the Tong Family Corporation. Everyone in the company began to follow his lead, and gradually, even Tong Le lost her standing within the organization.
During that time, Tong Le trusted Ke Wenjie completely until she noticed several important projects being transferred away from the company. These projects were moved to a newly established real estate firm set up under her mother-in-law's name—an obvious maneuver by Ke Wenjie.
When Tong Le confronted him about this decision, Ke Wenjie was eloquent in his defense, claiming it was a strategy to mitigate investment risks and ultimately for the good of the Tong family. At that moment, she felt powerless to argue against him until she discovered that he had changed his heart; his affair was with none other than her most trusted friend, Lan Qingqing.
Following the clues like unraveling threads from a tangled web, Tong Le felt as if she had fallen into hell. She was filled with hatred and pain and longed for revenge but found herself lacking the ability to turn the tables.
Now, as she looked at the various files on her computer screen, she felt a sense of familiarity; ever since hiring a private investigator to track Ke Wenjie and Lan Qingqing’s clandestine meetings, she received evidence of their infidelity every week.
Just then, her phone buzzed with a message from the private investigator. It contained a real-time report: five minutes ago, Lan Qingqing had left an unlicensed diner with two takeout meals packed into her own ceramic bowls—ceramic bowls that looked quite expensive—but inside were unsanitary food items. She even deliberately stirred them with a napkin that someone else had used to wipe their nose before getting into her car.
Tong Le quickly replied: "Thank you for your hard work."
