"But she better not let me run into her inside the house," said Li ShiZe coldly. He did like Jiang YaGe a lot, but he, too, has his own principles.

Jiang YaGe quickly gave him her promise.

As for Li WangJin's end, that went much smoother.

Even though the video of them from earlier made him resent Wang SiXian a little bit, since Wang SiXian cooked tenderly for him everyday and served his every whim as though he had gained another attentive maid, he had passively agreed to her staying with them.

On the other hand, he also wanted to faceslap Fang JunRong. As Fang JunRong had sold their house on purpose and gave them such a difficult time, he also wanted to use the presence of Wang SiXian to get back at her and hurt her feelings.

As much as Fang JunRong acted like she wanted nothing else to do with him, if he didn't have a spot in her heart, how'd she reacted so greatly to his having an affair and escalated things all the way to a divorce? As the saying goes, the deeper the love, the deeper the hatred.

In addition to letting Wang SiXian move in with them, he treated Jiang YaGe even better. He showered her with all of his fatherly love and bought her many things. He gave her 200,000 yuan pocket money every month, so she could buy anything that she wanted. According to her, that's the proper way to raise a girl.

As for his real daughter, Li XinYun, he had completely neglected her and never brought her up again. And that's how Jiang YaGe finally experienced what a truly luxurious life of being a wealthy girl was like.

His behaviors had no impact whatsoever on Fang JunRong, but it had utterly infuriated Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao had visited a lot of doctors recently, hoping to fix his hand. Unfortunately, nothing worked. Not only could he not overly exhaust his left hand, many times, it'd give in suddenly and cups had fallen out of his hand in more than one occurrence.

That had given him an explosive temperament, and he had taken it out on those around him quite often.

Every time there was something wrong with his hand, he'd think about Jiang YaGe, that woman who was responsible for him becoming half a crippled person.

When he found out that Jiang YaGe's life had become even better than before and that her status had even risen over the real young miss Li XinYun, he was infuriated. He was suffering all sorts of hardships on his end and tried all sorts of methods to no avail, but Jiang YaGe was lucky and happy and there were no consequences whatsoever? How was he supposed to be okay with that?

Wang Xiao had always been a vindictive person. He wasn't going to let Jiang YaGe off the hook so easily. Previously, owing to Fang JunRong, he only dared pulling some small stunts on Li WangJin and nothing serious. Now that Fang JunRong had divorced Li WangJin and taken most of their assets and Li WangJin was just hurting, Wang Xiao no longer has much to worry about.

A ruthless look appeared on his face and he said to his underlings, "I want Jiang YaGe to regret being alive in three days' time. And that Li WangJin, let him know what it meant to have offended me."

His voice was cold like ice in December, mixed with deeply rooted hatred.

As soon as Wang Xiao's revenge started, Li WangJin's bad luck had begun. Lots of trouble-makers showed up at his workplace. Sometimes their windows were smashed; sometimes he'd accidentally fall into a ditch as he was walking down the street. All the ones who had previously picked on him maliciously had started all over again. They came and went without a trace and he couldn't figure out why these were happening to him.

Even though Li WangJin had contacted the police time and again, all his efforts were in vain. He was both annoyed and worried at the same time. He didn't know how far they would go and whether his life would be in danger next time. Li WangJin valued his life quite a bit. So he resorted to spending quite a bit of money and hired a few bodyguards for himself to always check out the areas around him.

He now regretted divorcing Fang JunRong too soon. Fang JunRong had a much better network than he did. But that was no point in regretting now. All he could do was to hire more people to look into the matters for him.

As he was tight on money, he even used the house that his son had bought as a collateral for a loan. Naturally, he didn't think that was a big deal. Of course he'd pay him back when the company turned a profit.

When he had everything arranged, the incidents seemed to have died down around him. Under his heightened surveillance activities, incidents such as windows being smashed had finally stopped. Li WangJin let out a sigh of relief. He thought the issue had finally come to pass and that the other party had already given up. And that all there was left to do was to find out who was behind it out. Unexpectedly, an incident happened on Jiang YaGe's end.

Jiang YaGe has had some really relaxing days lately, and she had been smiling a lot more. Without Fang JunRong and Li XinYun in the house, she had become the woman of the house and was the center of attention. Under that atmosphere, she had become more and more outgoing and would go out and shop for herself from time to time.

This was the day she had learned that one of her favorite designers had just released a new purse and she couldn't wait to bring her aunt along with her to go shopping at the mall. She couldn't wait to bring it to school after she had purchased it. Just the thought of all the envious looks for her classmates was enough to make her steps cheerful. She felt like she was walking on cloud nine.

The incident took place when they had gotten out of their car.

Wang SiXian, her arm in Jiang YaGe's, was about to walk over to the elevator. Right then, someone jumped out of a van next to them. His head was wrapped tight in fabric, exposing nothing other than his eyes. His gloved hands quickly twisted open a bottle, and he splashed the content toward Jiang YaGe.

At the very moment, Jiang YaGe, in her high heels, stumbled and fell on the ground, bringing Wang SiXian with her. The fluid, aimed at Jiang YaGe, had already left the bottle and was too late to be retrieved, landed mostly on Wang SiXian who happened to block in front of Jiang YaGe.

The abrasiveness of the fluid spread in the air and the person quickly got back into the van and took off before anyone could react to what had happened. His movement was so smooth and coordinated and obviously had been well planned out. A woman's scream cut through the air and pierced into everyone's eardrum.

Wang SiXian's voice was filled with agony. "My face! It hurts!"

The pain that was now spreading on her skin made her roll around on the ground while letting out bone-chilling shrieks one after another. Jiang YaGe flared much better than her. None of the fluid landed on her skin. Just a few splattered on her jacket that was used to block the sun and burned a few holes in it. She was lucky that she worried about the air-conditioning at the mall and had worn an extra layer. Otherwise, the fluid would have come into contact with her skin. She had heard about incidents where people were splashed with acid on the news in the past but had always thought that was something very far away and would never happen anywhere near her.

She quickly removed her jacket and scrambled up from the ground. She took a few steps back, and her face was pale. It was so close. Her face was almost ruined. She replayed the earlier scene in her hand and suddenly realized something.

No. That acid was aimed at her. Her aunt was just the innocent bystander. Had she not stumbled right then and there, she would have been the one on the receiving end of the acid.

Who was it that hated her so much that they wanted her face ruined?
