Change begins with revenge.

"Boss Niu, what are you doing here? The lease hasn't expired yet!" Ye Fei exclaimed.

Ye Fei was no longer the naive person who hadn't seen the world for several months. When he faced Boss Niu again, he no longer felt afraid like last time. It was Wang Yue who had brought him this maturity.

Boss Niu smiled and said, "Why don't you invite me to sit down? After all, I am the landlord."

Ye Fei furrowed his brow, recalling what Wang Yue had mentioned in her letter. He nodded and said, "Please come in."

After sitting down, Boss Niu looked around the room. The air was filled with the smell of alcohol and instant noodles. His guess was right. This fool had been deceived. It was estimated that he was still waiting for Wang Yue to return.

"That woman has left, it's hard to accept, isn't it?" Boss Niu said, shaking his head. "I've warned you, little Zhang. Didn't I tell you not to get involved with her? If you had listened to me, how could you have been deceived?"

Ye Fei's face turned grim as he asked, "How do you know?"

Boss Niu proudly smiled and said, "I know many things. Let's listen first."

He took out a recording pen and played the words spoken by Wang Yue. Hearing Wang Yue say that she was only with him for his money, Ye Fei couldn't believe his ears. "It can't be true, she wouldn't do that. I don't believe it, I don't believe it."

Boss Niu chuckled and said, "Whether you believe it or not, it's the truth. Is your money still there? Is Wang Yue still around? You've lost both money and love."

Ye Fei looked at Boss Niu angrily and asked, "How did you get this recording? When was it recorded?"

Ye Fei, no longer a naive boy, suddenly spotted a loophole. There was definitely something wrong with the recording. If it was made before Wang Yue left, then her departure was related to them. If it was made afterwards, then Wang Yue might have fallen into their hands.

"If you still care about this, it's best to think about how to find Wang Yue. From what I know, she went to the bank and transferred all your money into her name. If I were you, I would report her to the police. But honestly, you won't lose as a young man. Wang Yue is a beautiful woman. After playing with you for three months, you truly experienced her blessings. I don't know how many people envy you," Boss Niu said, finishing with a compliment.

Ye Fei stood up, showing his intention to see Boss Niu off, and said, "Boss Niu, is there anything else? If not, please leave."

Boss Niu's face darkened. "Kid, don't act arrogant. This is my house."

"I know it's your house, but our contract hasn't ended yet. I'm still living here, and you're not welcome," Ye Fei said firmly.

Though his voice remained calm, he had suppressed his anger. Boss Niu's leering expression when talking about Wang Yue had infuriated him. If he hadn't been taught by Wang Yue, he could have been happy without resorting to violence. He wanted to swing his fist at Boss Niu.

As for the earlier question, he had figured it out. If Wang Yue was with Boss Niu, he wouldn't have come here to report it. If his guess was correct, Wang Yue's departure was absolutely related to them. They wanted to involve the police. They didn't want to find wealth for themselves, but to trap Wang Yue. However, they had misunderstood Ye Fei. He had grown beyond the naive boy he was a few months ago. He had learned to weigh the pros and cons, and compared to the unknown Wang Yue, he trusted her more.

Boss Niu saw Ye Fei's determined demeanor and coldly sat back on the sofa, saying, "Kid, don't act high and mighty. This is my house."

"I know it's your house, but our contract is still in effect. If we violate the contract, we'll face penalties. Otherwise, I don't mind taking legal action in court. Anyway, I'm a poor person. I don't know if Boss Niu has the time for that," Ye Fei replied.

Boss Niu was surprised. He hadn't expected this young man to know how to use the law.

"Boy, what do you think the law is? Is it here to serve poor guys like you seeking justice? It serves people like us, the wealthy. I have a hundred ways to get rid of you, so if I were you, I'd leave quickly before trouble finds you," Boss Niu sneered as he walked out.

After Boss Niu left, Ye Fei could no longer hold back his emotions and sat down heavily on the sofa.

In fact, even without Boss Niu's words, Ye Fei wanted to leave this sad place. The cold laughter and disdainful words from the recording pen replayed in his mind, and he fiercely slammed his fist down on the coffee table.

Was this the true purpose of Wang Yue getting close to him? What was this letter about? Did she have to deceive him before leaving?

It turns out I really was a naive fool, deceived and at a loss, believing Wang Yue's excuses. Instead of having a ghost with him, he ended up with a resentful woman, sitting in the room complaining about himself. Wang Yue was right, this world is full of deception. Either you deceive or others deceive you.

Haha, Wang Yue, if you knew I had millions of dollars in gold, would you still do this?

Yes, this is a society where people eat each other, deceive each other. No one can be trusted.

Well, well, Wang Yue, you've taught me the most vivid lesson!

I would like to express my gratitude to Mr. Niu. Without him, I might never have seen your true colors. I would have remained immersed in fantasies, imagining you to be too perfect! What kind of existence are women, really? They are nothing more than playthings. Love? It's just a wishful fantasy!

Ye Fei had always had an easy life, never experiencing such a heavy blow before. Wang Yue's departure filled him with fantasies, but the words recorded on the tape completely overturned Ye Fei's views on life and the world.

There is a saying, "The landscape may change, but the nature remains the same," but even bad people can regret and reform. Of course, even a good person can suddenly change their path overnight. It can be said that it was Wang Yue's departure that set Ye Fei on a completely new path in life. Decades later, whenever Ye Fei recalls that night, he privately speculates that if none of this had happened, his life would have been completely different.

Ye Fei walked to the liquor cabinet, took out a bottle of Wuliangye, poured a glass, and drank it all at once, feeling a burning sensation in his stomach.

"Alright, alright, you're all fine! That's society for you. Haha, from today onwards, I, Ye Fei, will be different. I will make you regret it." Ye Fei looked up and laughed hysterically, with traces of tears still lingering in the corners of his eyes.

That night, Ye Fei got drunk, and the once innocent, kind-hearted Ye Fei had disappeared without a trace.

In the morning, the ringing phone startled Ye Fei awake. He rubbed his throbbing head and answered, "Who is it?"

"Dafei, are you okay? If your girlfriend left, she left. Mom wants to introduce you to a good girl." Wang Shuang said.

Ye Fei sat up straight, rubbed his eyes, and said, "Mom, I'm fine, don't worry!"

"Dafei, are you really okay?" Wang Shuang couldn't believe it.

A cold gleam flashed in Ye Fei's eyes. "Mom, don't worry. I'm really fine. Better than ever. I will handle my own affairs, you and Dad don't need to worry. I will send you money."

Wang Shuang said, "No, we've spent enough. Just take care of yourself. If there's anything, tell me and your dad, don't keep it to yourself, okay?"

Ye Fei nodded and said, "Mom, I know."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Fei took out a pack of cigarettes from under the coffee table, originally bought to entertain guests. Ye Fei lit his first cigarette in life, savoring the aroma of nicotine, as his thoughts drifted away. Since you no longer care, it's time for revenge.

Why was I beaten? Who caused me to end up in detention? This matter can no longer be delayed. It's time to uncover the truth.

You bastard, are you ready to face my revenge?
