"It's you? Why don't you just die? Why did you come back? If it weren't for you, Junxuan and I would have lived happily ever after!" Cui Shiwan was woken up by Xiang Wan splashing her with mineral water. Seeing the scene before her, she trembled with hatred.

With Xiang Wan's instigation, the Cui family's downfall was swiftly exacerbated by the police finding evidence of their crimes, which was followed by the seizure of their assets and the freezing of their funds.

Cui Shiwan initially planned to use the land to stall the Lou family, then unite with several other families to squeeze out and annex the Lou family's other businesses. However, before she could implement her plan, trouble broke out in her own backyard. A series of events followed one after another, and she could no longer care about anything else, rushing back to salvage the situation.

She wasn't in H City, yet Wei Mian was immediately placed under investigation by the Party's disciplinary body because someone anonymously reported him for abusing his power and protecting criminals, and even provided evidence. Who else could this anonymous person be but Xiang Wan?

Anyone who harms the country and its people, regardless of their former official rank or status, will eventually be punished by law, restoring peace to society. Xiang Wan has done a great deed and become an unsung hero.

The struggle between Irving and the owner of the White Horse Club began as evening approached, but it did not end there.

Both were involved in organized crime; Irving wielded considerable power, and the low-profile man's background was equally formidable. They fought each other for a while, suffering significant losses in assets and manpower, before eventually ceasing their conflict and turning their attention to the evening.

Having made such a decision, why would Xiang Wan be afraid of the consequences of retaliation? However, after three years, those people still couldn't find any clues about Xiang Wan. Instead, they were repeatedly led into police encirclements, which finally brought them to a temporary halt.

Irving has lost his backer and wants to run away. Before he leaves, Xiang Wan wants to give him a big gift.

Cui Shiwan disappeared on her way to a friend's party. Shortly after, a couple on a road trip broke down at the ferry terminal. The wife was seriously ill, and the husband carried her off the boat. They had no money for a hotel, so they found a corner in a container yard and sat down to rest.

At midnight, Irving was alone, squatting by a concrete pipe, smoking.

Police in the country were searching for him everywhere, so he had to go into hiding.

He has old acquaintances here; arranging for him to be smuggled across the border discreetly wouldn't be a problem.

However, a sudden sound made him prick up his ears.

As soon as Cui Shiwan woke up, she went crazy upon seeing Xiang Wan, and Xiang Wan naturally had to play along.

"Cui Shiwan, even now you're still indulging in wishful thinking. When you were plotting against Lou Junxuan, did you never imagine things would turn out this way? Let me tell you, your current predicament is entirely your own fault."

If anyone's been wronged, it's me, it's Irving. I've never offended you, so why are you trying to harm me? Mr. Irving even helped you; you were business partners. To betray even him—have you lost your conscience?

Xiang Wan threw the empty bottle on the ground, the clanging sound echoing between the containers, making the surrounding silence seem eerily quiet.

But Cui Shiwan didn't notice at all; all she wanted was to tear the person in front of her to shreds, even though she felt weak all over, her blood was rushing to her head, and her eyes were red.

"Hahaha, Lou Xiangwan, in my dream, you are nothing but a pathetic illegitimate child. What right do you have to live in the Lou family? What right do you have to receive Junxuan's love?"

Marrying Junxuan was the happiest moment of my dreams, but this relationship ended because of you. His eyes and heart were filled with you; even when he was with me, he would unconsciously eat your favorite foods, worrying about whether you had enough money. For you, he even went out in the middle of the night to clean up your mess while I was pregnant. You were a jinx; whoever crossed you was doomed. So I wanted to get rid of you, kill you, so he wouldn't think about you anymore. Ironically, you died, and his heart went with you. Hahaha, how ridiculous, isn't it? I, the man beside you, couldn't stand up to a dead man.

I didn't believe it at first, but after spending just a few days with Lou Junxuan, I clearly realized that he was still the same cold and heartless person from my dreams. Since I can't have him, none of you will have a good life. I want Lou Junxuan to have nothing, forced to grovel before me. I want you to suffer a fate worse than death, to be tasted by a thousand men and ridden by ten thousand.

"Hahaha, what a pity, Kyrie Irving is such a waste, he can't even guard one person, hahahahaha..."

Cui Shiwan appeared insane, her face contorted with resentment and hatred at becoming Xiang Wan's prisoner after her defeat.

She was reborn, Xiang Wan knew.

Her attempt to explain her actions in this life with a dream only makes her seem like a madwoman.

"Cui Shiwan, just because of a ridiculous dream, you'd use someone else to kill? You have absolutely no humanity! My meager blood relation with Lou Junxuan is seen as an incestuous relationship by you, it's laughable. Do you know that because of your stupidity, I've had to live in anonymity for the rest of my life, like a rat in the ground. Are you satisfied now?"

"Hahaha, satisfied? I'll only be satisfied when you're dead. Lou Xiangwan, you wait, I won't let you get away with this."

"Cui Shiwan, you could say you framed me because of a dream. But what was your purpose in framing Irving and the defending champion?"

"Hmph, asking these questions now, don't you think it's too late? Irving is a human trafficker, and Wei Teng is a greedy parasite. Even if I don't touch them, the police won't let them go. Why bother asking me?"

"This is insane, absolutely insane." Xiang Wan sneered as she looked at Owen, who was eavesdropping, and said, "Mr. Owen, you heard everything, didn't you?"

Irving, who had been hiding to one side, stubbed out his cigarette and stepped out from the corner.

"You've gone through all this trouble to catch the person who framed me. I want to go with you, using her as leverage, what do you say?"
