An Qiuyan, spitting blood with hatred, also planned to find a young fresh meat to retaliate against him.
But she forgot one thing: women of different age groups are not the same.
At twenty, she's a beauty; at thirty, an aunt; at forty, a madam; at fifty, a matron.
For men, it's different. At thirty, he's an uncle; at forty, still an uncle; at fifty, he can still be called an uncle.
When it comes to older men dating younger women, men have a greater advantage than women.
An Qiuyan wanted to find a fresh young man, but forgot that she herself had long since faded with age. Everyone feared the Shen family's wealth and power, so which man would dare to get involved with Shen Mingjue's wife?
This tactic didn't work, so An Qiuyan decided to drain the Shen family's wealth and then divorce Shen Mingjue, leaving the couple with nothing.
Who would have thought that after Shen Mingjue saw through her true colors, he had already been guarding against her.
Before An Qiuyan could act, Shen Mingjue struck first. Through various complex financial means, he transferred the property An Qiuyan had extorted from Jian Zhou in her early years into a family trust fund, making it exclusively the Shen family's.
After the property transfer was successful, Shen Mingjue ruthlessly turned his back and directly proposed divorce, kicking An Qiuyan out of the house.
And the son and daughter An Qiuyan had with Shen Mingjue were also ungrateful brats.
Seeing that all the wealth was in their father's hands, they simply disowned An Qiuyan as their mother.
In her old age, An Qiuyan was betrayed by everyone, impoverished, and her fate was even more tragic than Jian Zhou's.
She died in the cold wind, wearing tattered single clothes, with a face full of resentment and unwillingness.
When she opened her eyes again, An Qiuyan found herself reborn, back to her youth.
She thought to herself that Heaven must have pitied her for marrying the wrong person and for being so tragically wronged by that scoundrel Shen Mingjue, and thus gave her a chance to start over.
An Qiuyan didn't know why she was pushed onto the tea table, nor did she want to find Shen Mingjue; she only wanted to find Jian Zhou.
She tried hard to recall her past life memories and wanted to call Jian Zhou, but couldn't remember his contact information at all.
An Qiuyan went to the Jian family, wanting to find Jian Zhou, and by chance met Jiang Yushuang at the entrance, who then scolded her fiercely.
Jiang Yushuang also instructed the security guards at the entrance not to pay attention to this woman anymore and not to let her in, otherwise they would be fired.
With no other choice, An Qiuyan went to the Imperial Capital Film Academy, where Jian Zhou was studying, and inquired about him everywhere.
Since Jian Zhou's roommates and classmates from the same cohort had already graduated and scattered to different parts of the world, it was impossible to get any information.
An Qiuyan could only search aimlessly at the Imperial Capital Film Academy.
After several months of searching, An Qiuyan actually got his phone number from a junior who was a year younger than Jian Zhou.
After making a call and crying about her situation, Jian Zhou agreed to meet her.
An Qiuyan was overjoyed and quickly put on makeup, changed into new clothes, and arrived at the Sculpture Park half an hour early.
The Sculpture Park was where An Qiuyan often met Jian Zhou in her past life to extort the Jian family's property.
The familiar place in her memory remained unchanged.
An Qiuyan looked at it, but it felt like a lifetime ago.
Searching for him a thousand times in the crowd, only to find him suddenly where the lanterns were dim.
Her ambition was sky-high, and she was determined to marry the best man, which was why she set her sights on Shen Mingjue.
As for Jian Zhou, although he was richer than Shen Mingjue, his face looked too youthful and tender; he wasn't her type.
It wasn't until she grew old and was ruthlessly kicked out by Shen Mingjue that she regretted not being with Jian Zhou back then.
