Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“What nonsense are you spouting? How can your mouth be so foul?”

Sun Yunyun was mortified by the accusations aimed at her. She turned around and was about to walk home when Zhu Yueju pulled her back. “You were the one who wanted to come out. How can you turn back just because someone says nasty things about you? Utterly useless, you are! Who hasn’t had their share of awful things said to them in their youth? I sure did when I was your age!”

Sun Yunyun flinched. Turning back had been her first instinct upon being ridiculed. Already, she had spent more than a month hiding at home, refusing to step out of the house. The reason? Fifth Sister had skipped grades and entered university before her, and she had become a laughingstock. All her plans had gone down the drain, and she hid at home to avoid being laughed at by everyone in the village.

In this month, behind closed doors, not once did she stop feeling aggrieved and indignant at what should have been her glorious future. Worst still was knowing that Su Wen’s family was basking in the glory. Sun Yunyun had to keep telling herself that all this was just temporary. Although fate had decreed she would not be able to enter university, it had opened another door, showing her that she could become a writer.

Sun Yunyun refused to believe she was inferior to a university student. Once she became a successful writer, people would see her as a promising, cultured intellectual. Who would then dare laugh at her as a distinguished author of several published works?

Di Juan, her former form teacher, and all the other students would curry favor with her then. Even that boy who had a crush on her would drown in his obsession with her. Sun Yunyun could already imagine Su Wen’s expression when her plans came to fruition.

At that point, she would laugh in Su Wen’s face, her nose at her arrogance for thinking herself above her betters.

Reveling in what she believed to be an eventuality, Sun Yunyun sneered at Chen Guihua. She did not like the latter one bit. She was too much of a shrew.

Today, she had ventured out of the house to show off in front of Su Wen.

Su Wen did not know that her submitted book had become Sun Yunyun’s. Su Wen was the pen name she had chosen for herself, one she would use when she became famous. If interviewed, she would announce to the whole world how Su Wen was the name of her best friend, once upon a time, someone who had betrayed her and stole the man of her dreams. It would be a triumphant moment of joy for her and bone-deep anguish for Su Wen.

It would be a statement commemorating a love and friendship tarnished by betrayal.

Sun Yunyun did not doubt that this ploy would garner everyone’s sympathy while painting Su Wen as an unscrupulous crook needing a beating. It would be vengeance for the grievances she had suffered all this while.

The mere thought of which was gratifying.

She was God’s beloved. On the night she returned from school, the day she had become the butt of jokes and mean teasing, she dreamed that Su Wen had written a book, submitting it to a publishing house. That publishing house quickly approved her draft and sent a contract via registered mail, beginning negotiations for licensing and publication.

Sun Yunyun went to the post office to collect the registered letter the next day. The contents were exactly as she had dreamed of, so she immediately wrote back to the publishing house, agreeing to the terms of the contract. Most recently, she had been discussing the details regarding royalties. Once things were settled, she would sign the final contract properly and obtain the money they had agreed on.

She Imew the book would be a hit, becoming a bestseller overnight with more than 10,000 copies sold, skyrocketing to the top 500 on the trending list. All this she had been assured by her dream. She would become one of the most celebrated authors in history in one fell swoop, more than earning her place as one of the publishing house’s top writers.

Knowing her guaranteed success, Sun Yunyun was not satisfied with the royalties proposed by the publishing house. Therefore, she demanded an exorbitant sum, demanding a larger portion of the pie. This back-and -forth continued for a while. But now the end was in sight. Sun Yunyun could not help but feel smug and hoped to see Su Wen make a fool of herself.

When she thought of Su Wen’s continued ignorance, she pitied Su Wen.

Humph! Although she had become more intelligent of late, she was still nothing more than a stepping stone for her!

Su Wen stood in the provisions shop with a heavy bag filled with groceries. She eyed Sun Yunyun with interest, a look that conveyed an equal amount of smugness and pity. It sent a shiver down her spine. An ominous sense of foreboding overcame her..
