That day, I made an appointment to have dinner with my colleague Lijie whom I had worked with before.

Lijie is a few years older than me, she is smooth and worldly-wise, and she runs a high-end beauty salon in the city's most upscale shopping center.

We had a good relationship before, I gave her twenty thousand yuan, and explained carefully.

Lijie smiled, patted her chest and assured me that she would definitely get the job done for me.

Two days later, Hou Juan received a winning message on her phone, stating that because she was shopping at the supermarket, she was luckily selected as a "Medina Beauty Salon free trial customer".

At first, Hou Juan thought it was a scam, but later she received a call from the salon's director personally, saying that this was their cooperation activity with the supermarket, repeatedly guaranteeing that there were absolutely no extra charges, and she could experience several projects.

Hou Juan was persuaded, that day, Lijie personally took action, giving Hou Juan facial and back care, working hard all day long, and didn't take a single penny.

Lijie is very insightful, she knows exactly what the other party wants to hear, what they want, after a few hours, Hou Juan had already poured her heart out to Lijie, talking about her useless husband at home, and ended up in tears.

After returning from the beauty salon, Hou Juan took ten thousand yuan from her bankbook, became the lowest-tier member at Lijie's beauty salon, and started going to the salon for facials every now and then.

Hou Juan came from out of town, without friends, Lijie quickly became her close "bestie".

Under Lijie's guidance, Hou Juan began to quietly change, she started to pay attention to her appearance, changed to a younger hairstyle, bought fashionable clothes, and looked several years younger than before.

Meanwhile, Zhao Wei rarely came home, he didn't even bother to look at Hou Juan most of the time, completely oblivious to her changes.

That day I was still at work in the company, and Zhao Wei came to see me again.

It turned out that after being laid off, he mortgaged his house, recruited two people, and set up a company, hoping to rely on his previous connections to stand on his own.

After the last incident, he did have doubts about me, and even went to see his ex-girlfriend, but the ex-girlfriend said that I did leave only after receiving a call from home.

Zhao Wei was half-believing, but he was eager to take on this project, so he had to pretend that nothing had happened.

I deliberately became friends with Zhao Wei, often going out with a group of brothers to eat skewers and drink.

I was waiting for an opportunity.

Finally, Lijie sent me a message: It's done, tonight.
