《The Stunning Girl From The Slums》 Chapter 1 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Country H, on an isolated island. This was a prison for mental patients and felons. It was also the poorest place in the entire country. In the slums. There was an extreme shortage of resources. They had to snatch everything they could eat and drink. Some people hung from tree vines and were swallowed alive by the python in the next second. Some people jumped into the sea by the cliff, and the sharks could eat them up. Even more people died from killing one another. This was a criminal¡¯s paradise, a civilized hell. Suddenly. From the sky came the sound of helicopters, and it was more than one. Cheng Xin raised her head and looked at the helicopters. A trace of surprise flashed across her eyes. Who? Such a grand occasion? After a moment of curiosity, Cheng Xin retracted her gaze. It had nothing to do with her anyway. She had been on this island for three years and had seen all kinds of storms. Ever since he was thrown up by the Cheng family¡­ Haha. A family. She was the second daughter of the Cheng family, a child brought over from the orphanage. It was also three years ago that she found out that the Cheng family adopted her just to help the Cheng family¡¯s biological daughter fend off the disaster! The eldest daughter of the Cheng family, Cheng Wei, was born on the day of her birth. She was told by a fortune-teller that a calamity that she could not escape from would strike her at the age of eighteen. Only by finding someone with the exact same birth characteristics would Cheng Wei have a chance of survival. Cheng Xin became the scapegoat. On the surface, she seemed to be the adopted daughter of the Cheng family, who was loved and doted on. In reality, she was just a dog of the Cheng family. She was even worse than a servant! Cheng Wei was the beloved daughter of the entire Cheng family. Cheng Wei would not make any mistakes. All of Cheng Wei¡¯s mistakes had been repaid by Cheng Xin. Her teacher¡¯s physical punishment, her parents¡¯ reprimands, and the semi-finished medicine used to extend Cheng Wei¡¯s life were all used to address Cheng Xin. When she was eighteen, the Cheng family married her off to an old man! Of course, Cheng Xin was unconvinced. After stabbing her ¡°husband,¡± she was sent here by the Cheng family. It was all part of the Cheng family¡¯s plan. The Cheng family could not even kill her directly in order to protect their reputation of being kind and benevolent. They even thought of ways to do this¡­ How could he let them have their way? Cheng Xin focused her gaze and removed herself from her memories. Bang! Bang! Bang! Gunshots rang out. Cheng Xin was shocked. She immediately saw a pair of pure black high-grade leather shoes. ¡°Mr. Li, those mental patients and criminals who had charged in have been dealt with.¡± Another cold voice, as if coming from beside the owner of the leather shoes, could be heard. Mr. Li? Solve it? Cheng Xin just stared at the shoes without looking up. In this situation, he had to pretend to be a fool. Cheng Xin was smart and knew how to read people¡¯s expressions. As sharp as she was, she could clearly feel a gaze on her. The pressure was extremely strong. Was it that Mr. Li? As Cheng Xin thought about it, she still did not raise her head. Until a pair of well-defined hands lifted her chin. ¡°Is this mental illness as well?¡± Cheng Xin met a pair of cold eyes. He was like a god that looked down on all living beings and looked down on them. His voice was pleasant and deep, but it did not lose its power. The man looked like he was in his late twenties. His short hair was neat and neat, and his face¡­ was beautiful. Oh, right. His lips were gorgeous. It was the most beautiful thing Cheng Xin had ever seen. To be precise, he was the most good-looking person Cheng Xin had ever seen. She had long, straight legs, fair skin, and a beautiful face. Cheng Xin was definitely not stupid enough to keep staring at the man. All of these were swept away by her when she was forced to look up. She had to admit that he had left a deep impression on her. Someone grabbed her hair, revealing the electronic chip behind her ear. Every person sent to the island would have an electronic chip that recorded their identity, history, etc. ¡°Mr. Li is indeed mentally ill.¡± ¡°She was sent here three years ago. She¡¯s twenty-one this year¡­ I think she¡¯s a homeless person on the street. No other information. She was sent here after she was diagnosed with schizophrenia.¡± The man called Mr. Li did not say anything, but his grip on her tightened. Cheng Xin silently endured it without saying a word. She tried her best to look like a lunatic. Should I drool a little? Seeing the expensive watch on the man¡¯s wrist and the gun at his waist, Cheng Xin gave up on this idea. The man kept looking at her for a long time. ¡°Correct,¡± Mr. Li said calmly. It had been a long time since anyone dared to look him in the eye, let alone look at him for so long. The girl in front of him was not wearing any makeup, and her face was covered in dust and dirt. Even so, her looks did not pale in comparison. At least she wasn¡¯t ugly. Furthermore, there was no reaction at all¡­ A hint of interest appeared in Li Qun¡¯s eyes. How nice. Li Qun stood up. ¡°It¡¯s her.¡± As soon as she finished speaking, two people immediately picked her up and carried her away. ¡­Huh? What was going on? Cheng Xin was surprised, but¡­ These people were all armed. It was better to continue acting dumb. Chapter 2 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Cheng Xin had no choice but to turn herself into a piece of wood. The group led her out of the dense forest, and Cheng Xin heard a tiny murmur. ¡°Well, why did Mr. Li come looking for a slumdog psychopath?¡± Sing Sing: ¡­ Mental illness in the ghetto. Good image. Bang! A gunshot interrupted Cheng Xin¡¯s train of thought. A blood hole immediately appeared in the head of the muttering man. Mr. Li¡¯s hands. Cheng Xin didn¡¯t move, even if a perfect storm was brewing in her heart. Blood splattered on her face, and Cheng Xin saw Mr. Li frown. He came over, and glasses duly handed over his handkerchief. As Mr. Li approached, he stared at the blood on Cheng¡¯s cheek, then suddenly threw the handkerchief away. ¡°Nevermind.¡± Li Qun said lightly, a dark light condensed in his eyes. That face looks good with blood. After the small incident, the crowd quietly boarded the helicopter. No one saw the light under her eyes. On the shed roof, several young men huddled together, holding binoculars and peering. ¡°If you ask me, why didn¡¯t Sis Hing run away?¡± ¡°Getting rid of those people is not a problem for her,¡± said a boy lying on the roof, hiding behind the covers and confused. ¡°Because Sis Hing wants to go,¡± the other man answered. ¡°And¡­¡± ¡°And what?¡± The boy couldn¡¯t wait to ask. ¡°It was Li Qun who took Xin.¡± ¡°Li Qun, Li Yan.¡± There was a look of horror in the eyes of the man who answered the question. ¡°If you go out, you must stay as far from this man as possible!¡± ¡°But¡­¡± The boy, still unable to get it frowned. But, Cheng Xin, a woman who has been in hell for three years, the uncrowned king of the slums, should be similar to the King of Hell, right? The boy sighed, his eyes saddened. I¡¯m not worried about Kaoru, but. I hope those who leave Xin here will live another two days. The capital of H Nation. The lake, the mountains, the breathtaking scenery¡­ This was Jing Yuan, one of Mr. Li¡¯s properties. Cheng Xin was placed here by Li Qun, all bodyguards except some servants. Armed guards. Through the daily conversations of these people, Cheng Xin not only knew Mr. Li¡¯s full name Li Qun but also the name of the man with glasses¡ªAssistant Chen. Well, it¡¯s not even a name. Well, it¡¯s not really a name. Cheng Xin strolled to the windowsill and recalled all that she had known in the recent days. Li Qun, 28, was a grandmaster and chairman of H Guo Li Group. The eldest young master inherited the position of chairman of the board of directors, but it was Li Qun who had snatched it up by force. No one knew how Li Qun forced Lao Li to abdicate overnight, but they could not forget the sound of gunshots that night. After taking over from Li Shi, Li Qun carried out drastic reforms, offending many people and winning some over. Among those was Assistant Chen. What did the servants and bodyguards say about Li Qun? He¡¯s ruthless. He¡¯s ruthless. He¡¯s ruthless. Oh yes, and also, Hades. Cheng Xin¡¯s eyes rarely fluctuated. Hades? How interesting. She stood on the railing. Downstairs, Li Yan appeared. Cheng Xin hopped around, carefree, like a dancing butterfly, like a kite with a broken string. Li Qun stepped into the manor on the ground with long and slender steps. A group of dark shadows suddenly enveloped him. Li Qun raised his eyes coldly. After seeing Cheng Xin, his eyes trembled violently, and his body suddenly burst. He rushed over with great speed and caught Cheng Xin with open arms. The force of the impact numbed his arm, but it was tolerable. A little thin. Li Qun frowned slightly. The Cheng Xin in his arms was lighter than he anticipated. Cheng Xin curled up in Li Qun¡¯s arms, staring blankly ahead. There were hurried footsteps in the distance, and the maid in charge of Cheng Xin¡¯s food and amenities on weekdays almost knelt before Li Qun. ¡°Young¡­ Young master, we don¡¯t usually go into the lady¡¯s room. We didn¡¯t know she would jump!¡± ¡°Young master, please don¡¯t blame us for this. We really took good care of the young lady!¡± ¡°Young master¡­¡± The maids explained it word by word, with pale lips and profuse sweating, fearing that Li Qun would blame them. In fact, it really shouldn¡¯t be their fault. Cheng Xin wanted to. After all, she jumped off the roof on a whim and pretended to be mentally deranged. And then, there was Li Qun¡¯s reaction¡­ She thought that he would¡¯ve ignored her. Who would care about some psycho fished out of the slums? Not unless he was a psychopath himself. But now it seems that Li Qun cares about her, or at least wants to keep her alive. So, security and all that, not a big deal. Cheng Xin understood, and as soon as she regained her senses, the voice of Li Qun¡¯s cold and piercing voice could be heard. ¡°Why is she so light?¡± ¡­Huh? Wasn¡¯t Li Yan¡¯s focus a little off? Before Cheng Xin could finish complaining, Li Qun spoke again with a harsh and tyrannical tone, ¡°Answer me!¡± Chapter 3 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The maids were so scared that they couldn¡¯t even finish a sentence. Li Qun snorted. Assistant Chen understood and let the bodyguards take the maids away. Hiss. Cheng Xin had a headache. Should she consider what would happen if she pretended to be dumb and was found out by Li Qun? Li Qun carried Cheng Xin into the house. Behind him, Assistant Chen¡¯s solemn voice could be heard. ¡°When Mr. Cheng comes here in the future, you guys stay here and watch.¡± In the future? It seemed that Cheng Xin was planning to keep her here. Why would the CEO of a financial group keep a schizophrenic like her? Cheng Xin lowered her eyes and thought carefully, but she couldn¡¯t think of a reason. Li Qun placed Cheng Xin on the sofa. He hooked his slender hand and pinched Cheng Xin¡¯s chin, forcing her to look him in the eye. However, his scrutinizing gaze was marred with coldness, and Cheng Xin could tell at a glance that Li Qun was no kind person. ¡°Indeed, he does look like her.¡± After a long while, Cheng Xin felt that her chin was about to be crushed. Li Qun finally let go of her, and his deep voice rang in her ears. ¡°Remember, you are one of Li Qun¡¯s people from now on.¡± Very similar to her? Cheng Xin couldn¡¯t help but be curious about who she was. Moreover, she was one of his people¡­ so who was she to him? While Cheng Xin was curious, Assistant Chen rushed in and said, ¡°Mr. Li, we have already done a physical examination on this young lady. There is nothing wrong with her body, nor is she aggressive. She won¡¯t be a threat to you. It¡¯s just that¡­¡± ¡°Just what?¡± Li Qun raised his eyebrows. ¡°It¡¯s just that we haven¡¯t found out her identity yet,¡± Assistant Chen said resentfully. He didn¡¯t dare to look up at Li Qun. Li Qun sneered, ¡°She is just a substitute. She doesn¡¯t need an identity.¡± Assistant Chen was stunned. Then he looked at Cheng Xin for a long time before he sighed and said, ¡°She is indeed very similar to the young lady. Both of them have exceptional looks. They are quiet and quiet.¡± ¡°A few years passed in a flash. She was also 21 years old at that time.¡± Perhaps it was because he mentioned Li Qun¡¯s sad story¡­ but Li Qun, who had always been as cold as a machine, seemed to have some kind of emotion when he said this. Cheng Xin listened to their conversation expressionlessly, but her heart was already in turmoil. What, what did this mean?! His old lover had passed away, so he wanted to find a psycho like her to come back as a substitute?! First, there was Cheng Wei, then Li Qun¡¯s old lover¡ªdid she do something wrong in her previous life?! She could only be a substitute in this life?! She was cursing in her heart when Li Qun scooped her up in his arms again and strode upstairs. He didn¡¯t forget to say to Assistant Chen, ¡°You go first. I¡¯ll sleep here for a while.¡± Sleep¡­ sleep for a while? Some scenes of indecent behavior immediately appeared in Cheng Xin¡¯s mind. Not only was she a substitute, but seeing her like this¡­ Li Qun even wanted to treat her like a machine to vent his desires! Cheng Xin was placed on the bed when she returned to the room, her body had already gone stiff. Li Qun took off his clothes and pulled open the customized colored shirt, revealing his perfect, well-proportioned abdominal muscles. Then, his hand moved to the belt on his waist. With a click, the belt was untied. No!!! Cheng Xin looked calm, but inside, her heart was already roaring. Fortunately, Li Qun stopped taking off his clothes and turned around to walk to the bathroom the next moment. The bathroom door closed. Cheng Xin quickly left the bed and ran to the window, trying to escape the place. However, the bodyguard was standing in the courtyard. It was like a massive birdcage. There was simply no way that she could escape. What the heck?! No one dared to do anything to her in that crowded slum! Cheng Xin held her breath and tried to find another way out. She wandered around the mansion and finally found a hidden room. She jumped in and opened the window to take a look. Well, this place was not bad. There was also a fence to Tiptoe on. It was also a blind spot. However, she could not make any noise. For the rest of her life, Cheng Xin could only be lucky once. She gritted her teeth and climbed onto the windowsill. However, at this critical moment, there was the sound of footsteps outside the door. No way! This man is already taking a bath?! Cheng Xin¡¯s heart thumped faster and faster. If the man found out she was trying to escape, she would definitely die. This time, to survive, she had no choice but to get down from the window and close the window. She pretended to be lost as she sat by the bed in a daze and bit her finger. The sound of footsteps stopped at the door. Then, Cheng Xin¡¯s unhappy voice echoed in the room, ¡°Why are you here?¡± Chapter 4 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Cheng Xin ignored him and used her peripheral vision to look for a tool¡ªone that could protect her. Soon, her peripheral vision swept past a pair of scissors on the bedside table. Anyway, she had already ¡°murdered her husband¡± a few years ago, and she was not afraid to make a move on Li Qun. Li Qun stood in front of Cheng Xin, and the shower gel¡¯s fragrance wafted to the tip of her nose. She calmed herself down and slowly raised her head. Li Qun, wrapped in a white bathrobe, was staring at her. His wet hair was still dripping. Cheng Xin saw the water dripping across his jawbone and then on his beautiful collarbone. It had to be said that Li Qun was indeed a good man. ¡°Don¡¯t run around without my permission,¡± Li Qun suddenly approached and pinned Cheng Xin under his body, now in a trance. His hands supported her side and trapped her in his arms. ¡°Otherwise, you can forget about having your legs.¡± Li Qun¡¯s thin lips curved, but it made Cheng Xin shudder. She believed that Li Qun dared to carry out such an act. Li Qun stared at Cheng Xin¡¯s pink lips and pulled closer to her. The water droplets on his hair also fell on her face. Cheng Xin was thinking about how to get the scissors and stab them precisely at Li Qun. If Li Qun really dared cheat on her, she might as well fight him to the death. Cheng Xin pretended to be calm, but her hand reached for the scissors on the bedside table. Ten centimeters¡­ five centimeters¡­ She was just about to firmly grasp her lifelong dream! Suddenly, Li Qun abruptly grabbed her wrist. Her heart froze and she was almost exposed. It was over. Cheng Xin clenched her teeth and tried to push Li Qun away. Unexpectedly, a dry towel was suddenly stuffed into her hand. ¡°Sister, help me dry my hair.¡± Li Qun stood up from Cheng Xin¡¯s body with a smile at the corner of his eyes, which made his ice-cold body look more flirtatious and sexy. Sister? Dry his hair? Cheng Xin was stunned this time. It wasn¡¯t an act. This was a man who didn¡¯t play by the rules?! Seeing that Cheng Xin was stunned, Li Qun¡¯s face instantly darkened. He grabbed her hand and randomly wiped it on his hair, splashing water droplets everywhere. After wiping, he threw the towel and squeezed Cheng Xin¡¯s hand tightly as if he was going to crush her bones. ¡°Do whatever I command you. If you can¡¯t even dry your hair, then forget about this pair of beautiful hands.¡± In Li Qun¡¯s eyes, chopping off a hand was no different from cutting wood. Cheng Xin endured it and cursed while thinking¡­ from what Li Qun had said just now, she might not be a substitute for her old lover but his sister¡¯s. Owing to this, Cheng Xin breathed a sigh of relief. Li Qun wouldn¡¯t force her to have sex with him. Unexpectedly, just as the thought crossed her mind, Li Qun pushed her onto the bed again and lay down beside her. ¡°Hug me.¡± Li Qun¡¯s cold voice echoed, and Cheng Xin¡¯s eyes widened in shock. Was there something wrong with this big CEO Li¡¯s brain? Cheng Xin quietly distanced herself from him, but her hand was forcefully grabbed. Li Qun seemed unreasonable, only, this time, like a child. Not only was he lying on Cheng Xin¡¯s arm, but a long leg was raised high and crossed over her body. Three black lines appeared on Cheng Xin¡¯s forehead. What was going on? Could it be that Li Qun had a double personality? He was usually a big CEO, but by his sister¡¯s side, he had the IQ of a three-year-old? ¡°Sister, can you pat me like you did when you were young?¡± Cheng Xin thought that by hugging Li Qun, he would be able to fall asleep peacefully. In the end, it turned out he actually had other requests. She refused to budge, so Li Qun directly grabbed the hand he was holding and forced her to pat his back. How was this like a sister? Was he treating her like a mother?! Cheng Xin was speechless, and her hand was also hurt from Li Qun crushing it. She did not want to break her arm because of such a strange thing, so in the end, she still gave in and took the initiative to pat his back. However, her movement was clumsy, and the wrist made a cracking sound. Cheng Xin put her resentment in her palm, wishing that she could hammer him to death. Li Qun was satisfied with her performance, and even moved closer to her. Cheng Xin looked at him and felt that he was like a puppy. She was, however, oblivious to the fact that she was wearing sister Li Qun¡¯s dress, one still tainted with his sister¡¯s fragrance. Subconsciously, amid the reminiscence of the familiar scent, Li Qun closed his eyes. Chapter 5 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The sun shone through the green leaves, the sky was blue and clear, the buzzing of cicadas never ceased, and the flowers in the manor were in full bloom, decorating the already fresh and beautiful summer day. Soon, the sound of cicadas became muffled. In the manor, screams rose and fell. A girl in a white dress stood in the courtyard. Her bright eyes were stained with blood, and the pistol in her hand emitted a wisp of green smoke. The servant who had been shot fell to the ground. The blood dyed the green lawn and her clothes red. Like the roses in the garden, they bloomed seductively. The sun shone on the girl. It was bright, but it was like a god¡¯s favor on someone on the verge of death. ¡°Sister!¡± a young and mournful male voice cut through the silence. The girl came back to her senses. The killing intent in her eyes receded, leaving only confusion behind. There were corpses everywhere, and the smell of blood filled the air. After a while, she realized what she had just done. The girl covered her head with her hands and screamed hysterically. ¡°I killed someone¡­ I killed someone! ¡°I¡¯m guilty¡­ I¡¯m guilty¡­¡± The girl seemed to have lost her soul. Her face pale, she suddenly looked at her younger brother. Her eyes were sad, but the corners of her mouth revealed a strange smile. ¡°It¡¯s good¡­ It¡¯s good¡­ Qun¡¯er. This way, they won¡¯t bully you anymore.¡± The girl stood up and looked at the Little Li Qun in a daze. Tears fell, but she smiled brightly. ¡°These flowers are blooming really well.¡± The girl walked to the side of the blooming rose and reached out to gently stroke the soft petals. ¡°Qun¡¯er, you have to take good care of them.¡± As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her pistol and aimed it at her heart. No!!! Li Qun suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed. Everything was calm. The only thing that was the same as that day was the clear sky outside. So it was just a dream. Li Qun panted and covered his face with his ten fingers. The rose dyed deep red by fresh blood still lingered in his mind. He had been troubled by this nightmare for many years. Li Qun lowered his eyes and looked at Cheng Xin, who was sleeping soundly at the side. She was very similar to the sister in the dream, but her face was as pale as a sheet, and her thoughts as pure as a piece of white paper. Li Qun lay down and pulled Cheng Xin into his arms as if he wanted to pin her onto his body. His head leaned against her neck, greedily sniffing the fragrance on her body. ¡°Sister, I missed you.¡± ¡°Today, father came to see me. He actually wanted me to give him money to mess with women. In the future, if he does this again, I will chase him away and make him a beggar. How about that? ¡°When you left, I was only 10 years old. I couldn¡¯t protect you, and I couldn¡¯t give you anything. ¡°I¡¯m 28 now, but I can¡¯t see you anymore.¡± ¡­.. Li Qun muttered to himself, but he didn¡¯t know that Cheng Xin had woken up because she couldn¡¯t breathe. She pretended to be asleep but heard those words clearly. Although they sounded pitiful, all Cheng Xin wanted was for Li Qun to let her go. Was this man trying to flatten her?! Li Qun didn¡¯t know that Cheng Xin had woken up. After some explanation, he had woken up. However, when he looked down, he saw that Cheng Xin¡¯s collar was wrinkled from being hugged by him. She was also in the prime of her life. Her snow-white and tender skin made people daydream. Oh no. He reacted. He actually reacted to a lunatic?! No! Li Qun pushed Cheng Xin away and sat up from the bed. He looked at her for a moment before finally deciding to leave the room. Hearing the sound of the door closing, Cheng Xin could finally open her eyes and sit up in shock. Did he react to her?! Cheng Xin patted her chest, feeling them hugging tightly just now. Perhaps it was because she was treated as a substitute for his sister that Li Qun did not continue. Instead, he ran away. But on second thought, he had an improper desire for his sister. This was perverse!!! Cheng Xin cried out incessantly. She only wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. She tiptoed out and stood at the corner of the stairs, secretly looking down. Li Qun had already put on a white shirt. Assistant Chen carried the suit and helped Li Qun put it on. ¡°Today, your competitor spouted nonsense in front of the media and framed you. He said that you tried to control the economy of H and wanted to deprive the people of their money,¡± Assistant Chen said in a low voice, sizing up Li Qun¡¯s expression. ¡°Don¡¯t bother. Just get rid of him.¡± To him, killing a few people was nothing more than squeezing a few ants to death. Chapter 6 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Cheng Xin broke out in a cold sweat when she heard Li Qun¡¯s words. Downstairs, Li Qun, was already dressed in a suit. He emitted a strong aura, and to Cheng Xin, he looked like a beast dressed in a suit. ¡°Find me a woman.¡± Li Qun was walking out when he suddenly stopped and looked down at Assistant Chen, half a head shorter than him. He needed to vent his anger. Assistant Chen was stunned. ¡°Wh-what woman?¡± Li Qun frowned as if Assistant Chen was a fool. ¡°Sensible, mature.¡± Li Qun was a man of few words. Only then did Assistant Chen realize what kind of woman Li Qun wanted. His embarrassed face turned from green to white. Cheng Xin thought of Li Qun¡¯s reaction just now and cursed him for being a pervert. She was his sister¡¯s stand-in, but he actually reacted and even found a woman to vent his lust on?! If this wasn¡¯t a pervert, then what was?! Li Qun suddenly raised his eyes upstairs. Cheng Xin jumped in fright and swiftly shrank back. After a long while, Li Qun finally left with Assistant Chen. In the vast foreign house, only Cheng Xin was left. Cheng Xin originally thought that she could take the opportunity to escape, but the good times didn¡¯t last long. Soon, the servants arrived. Nanny Shen and Nanny Rong were the servants sent to take care of Chengxin. They had heard about Sister Li Qun¡¯s incident and had learned from her mistakes. Thus, they didn¡¯t dare to neglect her, fearing that she would go crazy. Fortunately, Chengxin did not say a word all day and only smiled foolishly. As time passed, Nanny Shen and Nanny Rong became less wary. After discovering that she was Sister Li Qun¡¯s substitute, Chengxin¡¯s days became quite comfortable. At least she had someone to take care of her every day. She also had food and drink. It was a thousand times better than the slums. But she had to escape. She wanted to see the ¡°family¡± she hadn¡¯t seen for three years. When she thought of the Cheng family, a trace of coldness flashed across Cheng Xin¡¯s eyes. ¡°Will Young Master come tonight?¡± From afar, Cheng Xin heard Nanny Shen¡¯s voice. Li Qun would not come every day. Since he did not come, Cheng Xin knew it was a good time to escape. She pricked up her ears and heard Nanny Rong reply, ¡°I don¡¯t think so. I heard that Young Master is going to the neighboring province for a business trip tonight. He is not in Haicheng.¡± Li Qun is not in Haicheng?! Cheng Xin was overjoyed. She jumped off the sofa and ran upstairs. ¡°Miss, where are you going?!¡± As soon as Nanny Rong walked out of the kitchen, she saw Cheng Xin running upstairs. Afraid that something would happen to her, she chased after her. Cheng Xin had stayed in the slums for three years and had long developed her skills. She ran so fast that Nanny Rong was no match for her. Cheng Xin quickly ran into Nanny Shen¡¯s room and promptly put the sleeping aid on the dressing table into her pocket. She had been observing the two servants for the past few days. She had long known that Nanny Shen had a sleeping aid, and this medicine had a significant effect on her escape. ¡°Dang, Miss! Why are you running so fast?¡± Nanny Rong was panting as she chased her up the stairs. At a glance, she saw Cheng Xin shuttling back and forth between her room and Nanny Shen¡¯s room. ¡°Butterflies! So many butterflies!¡± Cheng Xin turned into a fool again. She waved her hands in the air as if she was catching butterflies. Seeing Cheng Xin like this, Nanny Rong knew she had fallen ill again. ¡°Ah! The butterfly¡¯s flown away!¡± Cheng Xin suddenly shouted. Just as Nanny Rong was about to approach her, she suddenly turned around and ran downstairs. Nanny Rong staggered behind her. Seeing this, Nanny Shen, who was downstairs, rushed forward, trying to control Cheng Xin. ¡°I want to catch a butterfly! ¡°Help me catch a butterfly too!¡± Cheng Xin was like flying a kite. She followed behind her with the slightly older Nanny Rong and Nanny Shen. Their physical strength was not as good as Cheng Xin¡¯s. She had only jumped up and down a few times, and Nanny Rong and Nanny Shen¡¯s legs had already gone weak. Seeing that it was time, Cheng Xin rushed to the coffee table in the living room. Nanny Shen was shocked and took a big step forward to hug her. At this moment, Cheng Xin threw the sleeping aid into the kettle on the coffee table at lightning speed. After that, Cheng Xin obediently sat down. ¡°Miss¡­ miss¡­ You¡¯re so mischievous. You¡¯ve exhausted us.¡± Nanny Shen patted her chest and took the opportunity to take the teapot on the coffee table and pour two cups of water. ¡°Miss¡­ Drink some water.¡± Cheng Xin giggled. Nanny Shen had little choice but to gulp down one cup herself. She handed the other to Nanny Rong, who had just walked over. Chapter 7 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Half an hour later, the small house had gone entirely silent. Cheng Xin did her best to move Nanny Shen and Nanny Rong to the sofa and lovingly covered them with blankets. According to the dosage of this medicine, it was absolutely no problem for the two of them to sleep for five hours. These five hours were enough for Cheng Xin. She ran to Nanny Rong¡¯s room, took out two hundred cab money from her wallet, and decided to return it to her after returning from the Cheng family. Walking out of the villa, Cheng Xin took a deep breath. It was the air of freedom. After being trapped here for so long, Cheng Xin almost forgot what it was like outside. She stopped a taxi and quickly reported an address, ¡°156 Wutong Road, Changhu District.¡± She would remember this address even if she turned into ashes. The driver did not say a word and went straight to this address. Along the way, Cheng Xin looked out of the car window. After three years of not seeing each other, this city had undergone earth-shattering changes. It was filled with tall buildings and wide lanes. It was clearly the city she was most familiar with, but it was so unfamiliar at this moment. An hour later, the taxi steadily stopped in front of a luxurious villa. After paying to get out of the car, Cheng Xin raised her head and looked at the large and exquisite iron gate. A hint of coldness appeared on her pure face. ¡°Dad, I¡¯m begging you! Don¡¯t give me away, okay? I¡¯ll repay the Cheng family. I¡¯ll be good¡­¡± ¡°Cheng Xin, you¡¯re just an orphan that we picked up! You¡¯re used to protecting Xiao Wei from disasters! It¡¯s already good enough to find you a man!¡± The last time she was in front of this iron gate, she knelt in front of her so-called father, Cheng Kun, tears streaming down her face. She begged him not to marry her to that half-buried old man. However, she only got the truth of Cheng Kun¡¯s ruthlessness. Standing, here again, memories flooded in like a flood. Cheng Xin clenched her fists, her eyes burning. She would never forget that day. She will never forget the ridicule Cheng Wei gave her when she cried and begged Cheng Kun. ¡°The Cheng¡¯s can support you for 18 years. You should be grateful to us. It¡¯s also your good fortune to be able to take the disaster for me!¡± ¡°Besides, what right do you have to seduce my brother Feng Yi? If you act innocent in front of him, you¡¯ll look different when you¡¯re under your husband.¡± ¡°Ah, I want brother Feng Yi to see your disgusting face.¡± .. Cheng Wei¡¯s words pierced Cheng Xin¡¯s heart like thousands of silver needles. Cheng Kun did not stop her, but he also cooperated with Cheng Wei to humiliate her. From that moment on, Cheng Xin understood that they did not treat her as a human. She was not even a pet. Weak, she dared not confront them in the past. Speaking of which, she was also grateful to them. If they had not thrown her into the slums, she wouldn¡¯t have been able to garner the temperament and ability she had right now. Cheng Xin sneered and walked to the back door of the villa. She climbed up the tree briskly, jumped onto the fence, and lightly. She landed perfectly. Cheng Xin¡¯s thin lips curled up. She crept into the big villa from the backyard. In just three years, the Cheng family had changed a lot. The decorations were even more extravagant. The Cheng¡¯s must have had a good life in recent years. Cheng Kun was a councilman. Although he lacked the caliber, he knew how to curry favor the financial groups. Now, It seemed that he had found a new one. However, the better they lived, the more Cheng Xin wanted them to fall. Cheng Xin hid everywhere to avoid being discovered by the servants and quickly entered her room. However, as soon as she entered the room, she and a big dog looked at each other in dismay. Seeing a stranger like her, the big dog put on a fierce look. It stood up and opened its mouth to bark. Cheng Xin quickly picked up the dog food on the side and made a hand gesture. Her expression turned cold. As expected, the fierce-looking dog suddenly sat down obediently and wagged its tail at her. Cheng Xin smiled proudly. The slums had brought them disaster, but trained their ability to survive. To become great, one must first put in the effort. Through three years of experience, Cheng Xin learned a lot of skills from others. Dog training was one of them. She threw the dog food into the bowl and rubbed the big dog¡¯s head. The big dog immediately began to eat with relish. Cheng Xin stood up and looked around. This used to be her room, but now it had become a dog house. Ah, the Cheng family really hated her. Perhaps, in the eyes of the Cheng family, her status was about the same as the dog. Cheng Xin had no time to think about that. She walked to the east side of the room and wiped the wall behind the dog house. Although three years had passed, Cheng Xin did not forget the traps here. With a light push, a brick popped out. Chapter 8 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Cheng Xin removed the brick and took out an iron box with a password lock, generating a cloud of dust. The password had long been memorized. Cheng Xin opened the iron box. Inside was some money that she had saved since she was a child and a wooden button in her swaddling clothes when she was abandoned. When she was young, Cheng Xin had already known that she was not the biological daughter of the Cheng family. But out of gratitude to the Cheng family, she let Cheng Wei do whatever he wanted, even though she was always the obedient and sensible child. No matter how much Cheng Wei misbehaved, she did not get angry. Cheng Xin took the iron box away and put the bricks back. It was flawless. Cheng Xin was delighted. Before she left, she stopped and looked around the dog house. It was not easy to come here, but she had to leave a gift for her good ¡°family.¡± A hint of craftiness flashed in Cheng Xin¡¯s eyes. Ten minutes later, she returned the same way she came and stood by the roadside. She flagged down another taxi, and as soon as she got in, Cheng Xin said impatiently, ¡°Master, please take me to the most famous snack street.¡± After three years in the slums, what made Cheng Xin the most uncomfortable was the unappetizing food. This time, she had to eat what she hadn¡¯t eaten for three years! ¡­ It was night. Two luxury cars drove into the Cheng family villa. ¡°Dad, Mom! What a coincidence, you guys are back too!¡± A young girl in a princess dress got out of a luxury car. She looked at the Cheng couple, who got out of the other car with joy and pounced on them. This was the precious pearl of the Cheng family, Cheng Wei. ¡°Didn¡¯t you get out of Class A a long time ago? Where did you go to play?¡± Cheng Wei¡¯s mother, Xue Lin, gently held Cheng Wei¡¯s hand. Although her words were reproachful, they were more doting. ¡°I went to Li Corporation today, but unfortunately, I didn¡¯t see Li Qun.¡± The family of three walked towards the villa, as Cheng Wei said. ¡°But the person who received me is my fan. She said that she would try her best to apply to Li Qun and try to let us meet.¡± Cheng Wei was determined to win, and she was beaming with joy when she spoke. She was only 21 this year, had just graduated from university, and was already a beauty blogger with 50 million fans on H Nation¡¯s most popular video software. Cheng Wei had a hot body, good looks, and knew how to dance, managing to attract the attention of countless people. She could earn a lot of money just by live broadcasting every day. However, unsatisfied with just being an internet celebrity, she planned to enter the entertainment industry next. At the same time, she would use Cheng Kun¡¯s name to do charity work and rub shoulders with those financial groups. Through this, she could project a positive image to the public. The only thing she lacked now was a man worthy of her. Cheng Wei had been pampered like a princess since her childhood. It made her arrogant, and she looked down on the more ¡°ordinary¡± wealthy kids. If she wanted to marry, she would have to marry the best. Thus, she set her sights on the richest man in H Nation ¡ª Qun Li. ¡°Not bad.¡± Kun Cheng was very satisfied with Wei Cheng¡¯s way of doing things. As a member of the parliament, Kun Cheng naturally wanted to climb onto the high branch of Qun Li. Rumors were, however, that Qun Li disliked others buttering up to him. If Wei Cheng could make a beauty trap Qun Li¡¯s woman, wouldn¡¯t Kun Cheng¡¯s career be even brighter? Xue Lin heard this and hesitated. ¡°Wei Wei, aren¡¯t you dating Yi?¡± Wei Cheng¡¯s face was disdainful when she heard Xue Lin mention Yi Feng. When she took out her phone and saw that she had received a message from Yi Feng, her expression became even more unsightly. ¡°Yi Feng is just the second young master of the Feng Financial Group. He has an outstanding elder brother. It¡¯s not certain who will be the successor of the Feng family in the future.¡± Cheng Wei replied to Feng Yi¡¯s message perfunctorily while saying. ¡°I can¡¯t hang myself on a tree, right? I don¡¯t want to live a hard life in the future.¡± Compared to the Li family, the Feng family was nothing. When she was 18 years old, Cheng Wei fell in love with Feng Yi, her senior at that time. However, the person she fell in love with at that time was Cheng Xin. Employing methods of all manner to seduce him, she finally got Yi Feng to agree to be with her. However, after three years, she was already tired of it. She even felt that it was because Yi Feng had fallen in love with Cheng Xin, that she had to snatch him away. Seeing that Wei Cheng wanted to be with Qun Li, Xue Lin¡¯s heart was full of worry. Qun Li had a rather public reputation, where everyone knew that he was a cold-hearted man. Even the president was wary of him, let alone a senator like Cheng Kun. Chapter 9 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Worried that this would hurt her precious daughter, Xue Lin couldn¡¯t help but advise. ¡°A man like Qun Li is not so easy to control.¡± Wei Cheng didn¡¯t mind it but was a little unhappy. ¡°Mom, can you have a little faith in me? When I get to know Qun Li, I will definitely conquer him.¡± Kun Cheng and Wei Cheng were both ambitious. Seeing that Xue Lin was unhappy about this, he agreed with Wei Cheng. ¡°That¡¯s right, Xue Lin, can you have a little faith in Wei Wei? She already has 50 million fans on the Internet. She is considered a top internet celebrity. You can see that her charms are powerful enough.¡± ¡°No matter how powerful that Qun Li is, he is still a man. Our Wei Wei is both excellent and beautiful. We will definitely get his favor.¡± Xue Lin¡¯s words dampened Wei Cheng¡¯s mood. She did not want to say anything more. She pouted and stood up. ¡°Forget it. It¡¯s still making me moody. It¡¯s better if father knows how to encourage me.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll go upstairs first.¡± After saying that, Wei Cheng walked upstairs. ¡°Ah!!!¡± Suddenly, a shrill scream came from upstairs. Kun Cheng and Xue Lin looked at each other. They immediately stood up and ran upstairs. Upstairs, Wei Cheng fell to the ground, his face pale. ¡°Ah!¡± Xue Lin came forward and wanted to help Wei Cheng up, but she too was frightened by the scene in front of her. On the floor, there were red footprints one after another. They looked like blood. Wei Cheng was so scared that he pounced on Xue Lin, his heart beating like a drum. ¡°Mom, what, what is this¡­¡± Kun Cheng was still calm. He walked along with the bloody footprints one after another and saw the footprints spread forward. Wei Cheng and Xue Lin followed behind Kun Cheng in fear. They were naturally afraid, but they also wanted to know what was happening. The footprints suddenly stopped at a corner. The three of them stood still and looked up. They saw a picture of their family hanging on the wall. The picture was taken after sending Cheng Xin off. Their family, smiling like a garden of flowers, looked exceptionally warm. Suddenly, with a bang, the photo frame shattered. The face in the photo was also divided into several pieces, looking very strange. ¡°AH!!!¡± Wei Cheng and Xue Lin were so scared that they screamed at the same time and hugged each other tightly. Kun Cheng also sucked in a breath of cold air, but he still controlled his emotions and growled, ¡°Shut up!¡± Then, he looked at the bloody footprints that extended forward again and followed them. The footprints finally stopped at the door of the dog house. This was Cheng Xin¡¯s room from before. Cheng Kun reached out and pushed the door open. The big dog at home was obediently squatting in front of the dog house, staring at Cheng Kun. And in front of it were four big words. ¡°I¡¯m back.¡± The Cheng family¡¯s hall was brightly lit, but everyone was terrified. ¡°Did anyone sneak in today?¡± Cheng Kun looked at the servant, his face ashen. The servant shook his head in unison. ¡°We were all at home and we didn¡¯t see any outsiders.¡± ¡°Did Biscuit bark?¡± Biscuit was the big dog. The servant shook his head again. ¡°Biscuit was very obedient today. He didn¡¯t bark much.¡± ¡­. Cheng Kun¡¯s expression became even more twisted when he heard these words. In the end, he waved his hand impatiently. ¡°Alright, you can leave now.¡± After the servants left, the family of three was still sitting on the sofa in the living room. Xue Lin and Wei Cheng¡¯s faces were still extremely pale. The moment they thought that the room belonged to Xin Cheng, Xue Lin was so scared that she immediately took out a quick-acting heart-saving pill. ¡°The room in Biscuit is in used to belong to Xin. Could, could it be¡­¡± ¡°Why are you mentioning that b*tch?¡± Upon hearing Xin Cheng¡¯s name, Wei Cheng immediately interrupted Xue Lin¡¯s words with a look of disdain. ¡°It¡¯s been three years. She must be dead.¡± ¡°It¡¯s because she¡¯s dead that it¡¯s like this. Biscuit will scream whenever it sees a living person, but someone left these behind, and there¡¯s nothing abnormal with Biscuit. This, this means¡­¡± It¡¯s a ghost! Cheng Xin must¡¯ve turned into a ghost! Thinking of this, Xue Lin became even more panicked. Cheng Kun snorted disdainfully, ¡°So what if she turned into a ghost? It¡¯s not like you don¡¯t know Cheng Xin¡¯s character. She¡¯s a coward to begin with. Even if she turned into a ghost, she wouldn¡¯t dare to do anything. She only dares to do such scary little tricks. There¡¯s nothing to be afraid of!¡± In Cheng Kun¡¯s memory, Cheng Xin was a crybaby and a coward. Usually, she would be scared shitless when he shouted at her. Chapter 10 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation ¡°Mom, Dad is right. If it¡¯s Cheng Xin, we don¡¯t have to be afraid.¡± Cheng Wei heard what Cheng Kun said and recovered from the shock. However, if it would always like this, Cheng Wei still felt that it would be unbearable, so she suggested, ¡°Dad, it¡¯s annoying when such a thing happens. Why don¡¯t we find a master to bring bad luck and suppress that b*tch¡¯s soul so that she can never be reincarnated?¡± Xue Lin frowned and muttered, ¡°She¡¯s already dead. Isn¡¯t this a little too cruel?¡± Wouldn¡¯t there be retribution for doing this? ¡°Look at how timid you are.¡± Kun Cheng was a little disgusted. ¡°Vivi is right. We should teach her a lesson. I¡¯ll contact the master right away.¡± Wei Cheng looked at Kun Cheng¡¯s back and smiled proudly. You want to scare me? Oh, Cheng Xin is delusional. If I make her suffer, she will only make Cheng Xin suffer more. Cheng Xin, you better stay in hell! At this moment, however, Cheng Xin was in heaven. She was sitting at a barbecue stall along the street and eating. The air was filled with the aroma of food. Neon lights flashed, and people were shouting. This was the human world. For the past three years, Cheng Xin had lived in purgatory. Presently, she finally felt what it was like to be alive. Cheng Xin looked around like a child who had just arrived in this world. However, she was silently delighted. After a long time, she retracted her gaze and looked at the small metal box in front of her. The proof of her identity was only a middle school student ID. Ever since she was sent to the slums, Cheng Kun had erased all evidence of her life. All her identity information had disappeared as if she had vanished from the world. Without her identity information, she couldn¡¯t live at all. At this moment, she was an unregistered resident. Cheng Xin was a little depressed. She grabbed a skewer of roasted meat and took a big bite. The roasted meat, coupled with the fragrant cumin powder, exploded between Cheng Xin¡¯s mouth and tongue, satisfying her deep cravings. This was much better than the leftovers she had in the slums. It was this delicious food that made Cheng Xin feel better. There were always more solutions than difficulties, and three years in the slums taught her how to survive. What was impossible here? But the most important thing was to escape from Li Qun¡¯s hands. Although she was simply the substitute for Li Qun¡¯s sister, he did nothing to her. However, Li Qun was unpredictable. What if he was unhappy with her one day and decided to shoot her? ¡°Brother Qin, the documents made by your family are really great! Help me deceive the world! I must treat you to this barbecue!¡± Make the documents? Cheng Xin¡¯s eyes lit up. She was really lucky to get what she wanted. She was about to continue listening when suddenly, a voice from the television entered her ears. ¡°Cheng Wei, during the earthquake in the west, you traveled between various financial groups, raising millions of dollars for those affected in the disaster areas. Do you have any comments?¡± Cheng Xin looked at the television set set up beside the barbecue stall. It was her! The person on the television was indeed Cheng Wei! In the past three years, Cheng Wei had become more and more beautiful. Wearing a plain-colored dress and light makeup, she looked exceptionally pure. Under such a face, however, beat the heart of a devil. Cheng Xin sneered. As she gawked at Cheng Wei on the television, she replied humbly, ¡°These are all things I should be doing. Moreover, those who should really be thanked are the financial groups that helped and the doctors and soldiers who went to rescue them. ¡°I only hope that their lives can be guaranteed. Natural disasters are heartless and people have feelings.¡± ¡°As a public figure, you have really set a good example for everyone. I heard that you are interested in entering the entertainment industry. Is that true?¡± the reporter asked on the television. Cheng Wei smiled shyly. ¡°I have the thought, but I still need to train more. With my current abilities, I might just not become a good star.¡± On the television, she really looked like an outstanding young woman. ¡°Cheng Wei, I also heard that you and Feng Yi, the second master of the Feng family, share a good relationship. Previously, someone saw you both traveling together. May I ask if you are both in love?¡± The topic of the reporters suddenly changed to Cheng Wei¡¯s private life. Chapter 11 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Cheng Wei tucked her hair behind her ears. Her eyes filled with innocence, she smiled and said, ¡°No, we¡¯re just good friends. Don¡¯t exaggerate, or I¡¯ll find a lawyer.¡± As she said that, Cheng Wei winked at the camera. Heh. As expected, Cheng Wei had been doing quite well in the past three years, not to mention Cheng Kun. It seemed she had even become a famous figure. What disgusted Cheng Xin even more disgusted was that Feng Yi had actually gotten together with Cheng Wei. Previously, Feng Yi had wholeheartedly confessed his love to her. However, three years was enough to change everything. ¡°F*ck! Cheng Wei actually has a boyfriend?! Back then, we were in uni together! Why couldn¡¯t I sleep with her?!¡± Suddenly, the man called Brother Qin cursed. Cheng Xin glanced at the man as if she was looking at a fool. She was really blind to fall for a man like Cheng Wei. Thinking of this, she didn¡¯t even have the thought of looking for this man to get a fake certificate. Cheng Xin continued to enjoy the delicious food before her, but she didn¡¯t know that she had already been targeted by that group of men. ¡°Brother Qin, look over there, that girl¡¯s not bad.¡± This golden-haired boy called Brother Qin had originally been staring at Cheng Wei on television. When he heard that, he turned his head and saw Cheng Xin, who was wearing a plain colored dress, sitting at the dining table like a lotus flower that was untainted by mud. In front of the pure lotus flower were grilled chicken wings, grilled pork belly, grilled eggplant, spicy crayfish, garlic crayfish, and stir-fried flower beetle. It was the first time Brother Qin had seen a woman with such an amazing appetite. Cheng Xin sat in front of this pile of barbecue and ate slowly. She looked different. Brother Qin¡¯s heart was moved for a moment. ¡°I can¡¯t sleep with Cheng Wei. This girl is not bad.¡± After saying that, he put down the barbecue stick in his hand and walked to Cheng Xin¡¯s table. ¡°Sister, can you finish so much? Why don¡¯t I accompany you?¡± Brother Qin was bold. He sat next to Cheng Xin and put a hand on her shoulder. Cheng Xin calmly picked up a skewer of pork belly and enjoyed it. She glanced at him and said, ¡°Brother, do you like me?¡± Seeing Cheng Xin taking the initiative, Brother Qin became even more unscrupulous. He began his sleazy speech. ¡°Little sister is really smart. After you finish eating this, let me eat you. How about that?¡± Faced with such words, Cheng Xin¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change. In fact, there was still a trace of a smile on her lips. Brother Qin thought that Cheng Xin had tacitly agreed to his words. In a moment of impatience, he pouted his lips and wanted to kiss Cheng Xin¡¯s face. Pa!!! A crisp sound of a slap rang out, causing Brother Qin¡¯s head to buzz. Before he could react, both of his hands were grabbed by Cheng Xin. He was forcefully pressed onto the dining table, and both of his hands were clamped behind his back. This was not enough. Cheng Xin smashed the beer bottle at the side, and the sharp glass aimed at brother Qin¡¯s neck. Brother Qin, who was caught, was so scared that his whole body trembled and his face turned pale. It was over. He seemed to have provoked someone he should not have provoked. ¡°Brother Qin!¡± Brother Qin¡¯s scoundrel friends saw this and immediately surrounded him. ¡°Don¡¯t move!¡± Cheng Xin looked at them lazily and the broken glass in her hand was one step closer to brother Qin¡¯s aorta. Brother Qin¡¯s friends immediately did not dare to act rashly while Brother Qin began to scream and beg for mercy. ¡°Great Aunt! I was wrong! Let me go!¡± Cheng Xin narrowed her eyes and said leisurely, ¡°What was wrong?¡± Brother Qin¡¯s voice had a hint of sobbing. ¡°I was wrong to tease you. I, I don¡¯t dare to do it again!¡± ¡°Heh, you were wrong to be blind, understand?¡± Cheng Xin didn¡¯t care about brother Qin teasing her at all. What she cared about was that brother Qin treated her as a substitute for Cheng Wei. Why? With that thought, the glass shard in Cheng Xin¡¯s hand pierced brother Qin¡¯s skin. ¡°Ah!!¡± Brother Qin was dumbfounded. He screamed in pain, thinking that he was about to be strangled by Cheng Xin. This woman was crazy, right?! No, she was a devil!! ¡°Oh, right, I heard that you¡¯re a perjury?¡±Cheng Xin suddenly remembered that this man had other uses, so she went up to him and asked. Brother Qin was stunned. He thought that Cheng Xin wanted to send him to the police station, but he didn¡¯t dare to deny it, so he could only stammer, ¡°Yes, yes¡­¡± ¡°Help me make an ID card,¡± Cheng Xin ordered. Brother Qin turned his head and looked at Cheng Xin in confusion. ¡°You¡¯re a fake witness? You¡¯re so young and beautiful, why¡­ Ahhh, Ahhh, okay, okay, okay, I¡¯ll do it! I¡¯ll do whatever you want me to do!¡± Chapter 12 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Brother Qin could feel the cold glass shards on his neck. He was afraid that he had said the wrong thing and that Cheng Xin would kill him. Judging from this woman¡¯s behavior, she was probably not a good person. It was better for him to be obedient. ¡°Female, 21 years old. Her birthday is November 1st. You can make up the rest yourself.¡± ¡°What¡¯s her name?¡± Brother Qin was still trembling as he asked. Name? Cheng Xin rolled her eyes and her gaze fell on a plate of fragrant crayfish. ¡°Crayfish.¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Brother Qin was dumbfounded. This¡­ This name didn¡¯t match this woman¡¯s appearance, did it? ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Do you have a problem with it?¡± Cheng Xin¡¯s eyes turned cold. ¡°Of course not. Why would I have a problem with you? ! This name is very good! Very good!¡± Brother Qin didn¡¯t dare to provoke Cheng Xin again. At this moment, he was so scared that he almost wet his pants. ¡°It¡¯s best if you don¡¯t have it,¡± Cheng Xin said coldly. ¡°I¡¯ll give you three days. Three days later, at 10:00 p.m., I¡¯ll meet you at the top of the Fucheng Building.¡± ¡°If you don¡¯t come¡­¡± As Cheng Xin said this, she put the phone in Brother Qin¡¯s pocket into her pocket. ¡°You know the consequences.¡± Brother Qin shivered. Of course, he knew the consequences. Half of his life was in Cheng Xin¡¯s hands now. If he didn¡¯t obey, his whole life would probably be in her hands. ¡°Yes, yes, yes! I, Qin Qi, will definitely be there!¡± Qin Qi panted heavily and didn¡¯t dare to be negligent. Cheng Xin smiled knowingly and let go of him, playing with the ¡°murder weapon¡± in her hand. ¡°Okay, help me settle the bill.¡± Qin Qi held the back of his neck, which was still bleeding. He staggered and retreated obediently. Cheng Xin was in a good mood. She didn¡¯t need to waste any effort to get the fake certificate. She was about to ask the boss to bring her a few catties of crayfish when suddenly, an uproar sounded from afar. Cheng Xin didn¡¯t care. At this moment, she just wanted to fill her stomach. ¡°Clear the area! Clear the area! We¡¯ve booked the entire street!¡± A cold voice sounded. Booked a street full of snacks? She didn¡¯t understand the world of the rich. Cheng Xin couldn¡¯t bear to part with the delicacies in front of her. She walked to the Barbeque stall and wanted to pack up the barbeque, but she suddenly felt something was wrong. That voice just now¡­ was so familiar. Wait! Cheng Xin widened her eyes and looked to the side. A group of men with guns on their waists stood in front of them. Behind them was clearly assistant Chen! Assistant Chen of Li Qun! Could it be¡­ that the contractor of this street was Li Qun?! Help. Shouldn¡¯t he be in the neighboring province?! Shouldn¡¯t he be in and out of Black Pearl and Michelin five-star restaurants?! How could he have the leisure to experience the life of a commoner here? Cheng Xin did not dare to delay and dodged to the side. She quickly picked up the hat on the stall, put on a disposable mask, and even picked up a coat to put on. With these camouflage tools, she could finally follow the crowd out with peace of mind. She lowered her head and walked in a hurry. She saw that she was getting closer and closer to assistant Chen. She was almost there. She could leave now! Just as she was one step away from the scene, assistant Chen suddenly stopped in front of her. Cheng Xin was shocked. No way. No way? Assistant Chen could recognize her even though she was dressed like this?! ¡°Where do you peddlers want to go? What are we going to eat after you leave?¡± ¡­ Peddlers? Cheng Xin was stunned. She looked at the clothes on her body and realized that the words ¡°fruit milk tea¡± were printed on her clothes. D*mn it. The coat she was wearing was the uniform of the milk tea stall next to her! Cheng Xin was extremely depressed. ¡°Go and make two cups of something delicious to quench your thirst. After running around for so long, our CEO is also tired. If you don¡¯t do it well, I guarantee that neither you nor your stall will survive in this world.¡± ¡­.. As expected of Li Qun. Although assistant Chen looked refined, he was also a ruthless person. But.. two cups? Could it be that there was someone else besides Li Qun? Or, one of the cups was assistant Chen¡¯s own? ¡°Why aren¡¯t you going?!¡± Seeing Cheng Xin stunned, Assistant Chen frowned and urged her. Cheng Xin hurriedly nodded and turned to the fruit and milk tea stall. The owner of the fruit and milk tea stall had long run away, and the stall was empty. Cheng Xin had no choice but to use the ingredients in the stall to make drinks for Li Qun. She only hated that there was no poison at this time, or she would¡¯ve been done and over with it once and for all. Chapter 13 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The night market, which was bustling with people just a moment ago, was now deserted. The bodyguards in black quickly cleaned up the scene. The tables, chairs, and floors were cleaned, disinfected, and covered with a seemingly elegant tablecloth with exquisite cutlery. Pretentious. Cheng Xin silently rolled her eyes. She and the few remaining vendors were making delicacies as fast as possible. Compared to those vendors, Cheng Xin looked much calmer. The boss of the barbecue stall next door was shaking his hands as he spread the seasoning. ¡°President Li, I love to come to the Snack Street to try this. I don¡¯t know if you¡¯re used to it.¡± A feminine voice that made people¡¯s hands and feet go numb was heard by Cheng Xin, along with a wave of high heels. Cheng Xin couldn¡¯t help but lookup. Heh. So she was here with a woman. Li Qun, wearing a camel-colored coat, had sharp eyes and his thin lips were tightly shut. Meanwhile, the woman beside him wore a gorgeous and sexy red short skirt with suspenders. Her entire person was like a koala bear, hanging on Li Qun¡¯s arm. Her soft breasts were intentionally or unintentionally rubbing against Li Qun¡¯s body. Tsk. It was not suitable for young children, was not ideal for young children. Cheng Xin lowered her eyes and continued to make milk tea. ¡°Ah! Fruit milk tea! I love this place very much.¡± The woman pulled Li Qun to sit at the dining table in front of Cheng Xin. Cheng Xin wished she could find a hole to hide in. ¡°President Li, do you think I¡¯m very strange? Do I like to eat these things? You haven¡¯t been to a snack stall before, right? These places are the most lively. You can come and visit them when you have time.¡± The woman¡¯s voice was very coquettish, which gave Cheng Xin goosebumps. Do all these men like women like this?! Cheng Xin was a little speechless. She put the pearls and coconut fruits in the milk tea and walked to the two of them with her head lowered. God bless, don¡¯t recognize her. Cheng Xin looked up slightly. She didn¡¯t know when, but the woman in the red dress had already sat on Li Qun¡¯s body. Her collar was exposed, and a slender hand was around Li Qun¡¯s neck. Her legs were touching his waist. Li Qun¡¯s hand also reached into the woman¡¯s skirt, feeling deep into her thigh. This, this was too bold! Cheng Xin was dumbfounded, but at this time, it was a good time for her to escape. She slowly retreated, wanting to escape while they were still in love. ¡°Stop!¡± Li Qun¡¯s cold voice sounded. Cheng Xin was shocked. Could he have recognized her? She didn¡¯t dare to look up, but she felt a huge mountain pressing down, suffocating her. After a while, Li Qun¡¯s gaze shifted elsewhere, and his deep voice sounded with a hint of charm. ¡°Don¡¯t you like this milk tea? Quench your thirst first.¡± The woman quickly glared at Cheng Xin and moved closer to Li Qun. Her red lips opened slightly, and her gaze was ambiguous. Her soft voice sounded again. ¡°My heart is also thirsty. Help me quench my thirst.¡± Li Qun smiled and pushed the woman onto the table. He lifted the woman¡¯s red dress up. Was he really going to do it in front of everyone?! Cheng Xin sucked in a breath of cold air. Before she could withdraw her gaze, she saw a streak of red fly out and hit the table at the side with a muffled sound. Bang. Following a gunshot, the woman was shot squarely in the heart, and blood splattered everywhere. They were flirting just a moment ago, but now it was a bloody scene. Cheng Xin was trembling with fear. She saw a holster at the thigh of the unconscious woman, but it was empty. The gun inside should be the exquisite lady¡¯s gun in Li Qun¡¯s hand. Li Qun¡¯s expression was as cold as ever, as if he was not killing people just now but stepping on an ant. ¡°Ahh!!! Murder!!!¡± Blood splattered on the scene, and the peddlers fled in all directions in fear. Cheng Xin came back to her senses and realized that the calm did not fit in with the peddlers around her. She quickly lowered her head, afraid of attracting attention by deliberately screaming, and she could only reduce her presence. ¡°Chen Yuan! This is the woman you found? ! Do you want me to play with women, or do you want me to go to hell?!¡± Li Qun sneered and looked askance at the black-faced Assistant Chen. This was the first time Cheng Xin had heard of Assistant Chen¡¯s name. Chen Yuan was also frightened just now, and his voice trembled. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, President Li, I didn¡¯t do a proper investigation and almost harmed you. I deserve to die.¡± Chapter 14 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation He had been by Li Qun¡¯s side for many years, but this was the first time he had encountered such a thing. Previously, when Li Qun asked him to find a woman, he was too anxious and found this woman in the business meeting. But who knew that this beautiful woman was actually an assassin. ¡°You are still useful, and I won¡¯t take your life for the time being.¡± Li Qun put the pistol into his pocket. ¡°Go and check the background of this woman, and consider it as an apology.¡± ¡°Yes.¡±Chen Yuan was terrified. Li Qun looked around and fixed his gaze on Cheng Xin. ¡­.. Cheng Xin¡¯s forehead was covered in a layer of cold sweat. A pair of shiny black custom-made leather shoes fell into Cheng Xin¡¯s line of sight. Then, a gun was pressed against her forehead. ¡°The others have run away. Aren¡¯t you afraid?¡± Li Qun¡¯s voice slowly sounded, quite playful. Why was he targeting her?! Cheng Xin secretly cursed her bad luck, but now that things had come to this, she could only try her luck. She lowered her voice and changed her tone, she replied, ¡°You¡¯re Mr. Li, right? We¡¯ve all heard of you. If it weren¡¯t for your support, we wouldn¡¯t have set up a stall here. With you around, we¡¯ll definitely be safe.¡± Who wouldn¡¯t know how to grovel? Li Qun chuckled and said nothing. The two of them were in a stalemate. Cheng Xin prayed that Li Qun would quickly let her go. After a while, the muzzle of the gun finally left her head. ¡°Go to Rose Garden,¡± Li Qun left an order and strode away. Cheng Xin let out a long sigh of relief. He had finally left. The lively snack street was now a mess. The blood on the ground proved what had just happened. At this moment, this was no longer the human world. It was purgatory. Li Qun really was the devil. Cheng Xin¡¯s legs went weak, and she staggered to sit down. Wait! Gui Yuan?! Wasn¡¯t Gui Yuan the small house she lived in?! Oh no! Cheng Xin was so busy rejoicing that she almost forgot what Li Qun said! Wasn¡¯t he not going over today?! How could he change his mind at the last minute?! If he went back and found that she wasn¡¯t there, then she really wouldn¡¯t live long. Cheng Xin thought of the woman in red just now and felt a lingering fear in her heart. If Li Qun found out that she was running around or that she was pretending to be crazy, her ending might be even worse than this woman¡¯s. No, she couldn¡¯t just sit around and wait for death! Cheng Xin looked at the dark mass of bodyguards in black who were leaving and an idea occurred to her. She crouched down and quickly ran past the small stalls and left the snack street in front of this group of people. If she took a taxi, it might not be as fast as the luxury cars parked at the door. Cheng Xin took a deep breath and decided to give it a try. The drivers were standing next to the luxury cars, waiting for Li Qun. Cheng Xin nimbly avoided their sight, picked a random car, opened the trunk, and got in. After lying in the trunk, Cheng Xin let out a sigh of relief. If she followed Li Qun back, there was still hope for her to live. The sound of footsteps could be heard. Li Qun and his men had already arrived at the exit of the snack street. ¡®Don¡¯t get into that car of hers!¡¯ Cheng Xin put her palms together and prayed again. Li Qun¡¯s gaze was fixed on a car. He glanced at it and his thin lips curled up slightly. ¡°Take this car.¡± ¡°Yes.¡± Assistant Chen was stunned. Li Qun had not taken this car before. However, these cars belonged to Li Qun. He could take whichever car he wanted. Assistant Chen did not suspect him. He eagerly opened the car door for Li Qun. Cheng Xin was curled up in the dark trunk. When she heard the sound of Li Qun getting into the car, she almost broke down. She did not even dare to breathe. She was really ¡°lucky.¡± It was her first time escaping, and in the end, she ran into Li Qun at the snack street. Now, she had to hide in the trunk of the car that he was in and go home with him. What an unfortunate fate! ¡°President Li, I¡¯m really sorry about what happened tonight. Please give me another chance. I will definitely find you a woman that you are satisfied with.¡± Thinking about what had happened just now, Chen Yuan still had lingering fear in his heart. Rather than spending the day in a hurry, he might as well think of a way to redeem himself. It was just finding a woman. Chen Yuan could just look for another woman. ¡°Don¡¯t be like today. You¡¯re too pretentious.¡± Most of the women who stuck themselves on Li Qun were like this. He was already tired. ¡°Then what kind of woman does President Li like?¡± Chen Yuan asked respectfully. ¡°Someone with a brain problem.¡± ¡°Ah?!¡± Chapter 15 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Cheng Xin¡¯s reaction was the same as Chen Yuan¡¯s¡ªLi Qun was a pervert¡ªeven his criteria for finding a woman were weird. Playing his long fingers, Li Qun¡¯s eyes were unfathomable, and his voice carried a hint of evil. ¡°Tonight, this woman is not interesting. I¡¯m still interested in that crazy woman in the garden.¡± When Chen Yuan heard this, he was even more surprised. No wonder Li Qun wanted him to find a woman. He must have had thoughts about that crazy woman that day. ¡°Chen Yuan, do you think I should get rid of that woman? But since I had sex with her, I can¡¯t treat her as a substitute.¡± Li Qun really asked Chen Yuan this question seriously, which made her both surprised and confused. In the past, Li Qun had never hesitated like this. Cheng Xin pricked up her ears and listened to the movements outside. But there was only silence in the car. She did not dare to move, and her whole body was stiff. Li Qun! Oh, Li Qun, please wake up! She was his biological sister¡¯s substitute! There was no need to be that perverted, right?! On the way back, Cheng Xin¡¯s seconds felt like years. Fortunately, not long after, the car stopped steadily. Li Qun and Chen Yuan got off the car, and Chen Yuan also waited the whole way, but did not receive Li Qun¡¯s conclusion. And he did not dare to ask. He got off the car in silence and walked into the villa in silence. Cheng Xin listened to the footsteps that were getting further and further away. Taking advantage of the fact that the driver had left the car unlocked, she carefully opened the trunk and jumped out of the car. She rolled on the ground and rolled into the rose bushes at the side. She hid in the darkness and watched Li Qun and Chen Yuan standing at the door of the villa, ready to enter the house. Cheng Xin held her breath and ran to the back of the foreign building. She climbed up the tree quickly and sneaked into the villa as if she had sneaked into the Cheng family. Li Qun did not seem to notice anything unusual. He calmly watched the door open and strode in. However, in the darkness, the corners of his mouth curved into a half-smile. Under the warm light, Nanny Rong and Nanny Shen had just woken up. Hearing the footsteps outside, they suddenly stood up and saw Li Qun walking in with Chen Yuan. Their breathing stopped. It was so close that Li Qun almost found them asleep. ¡°Young Master, you¡¯re here.¡± After adjusting their emotions, Nanny Rong and Nanny Shen greeted Li Qun. Li Qun looked around and asked directly, ¡°Where is she?¡± Nanny Rong and nanny Shen naturally knew who she was. A trace of panic flashed in their eyes¡ªthey knew the consequences if they didn¡¯t watch Cheng Xin well. ¡°Miss is already sleepy. She is still sleeping in the room.¡± Nanny Rong was the first to react and said calmly. Li Qun nodded and walked upstairs. There was a heavy sound coming from the solid wood stairs. One sound after another was like a death bell. Nanny Rong and Nanny Shen looked nervously at the cold back of the man and could not help but tremble. When they reached the door of Cheng Xin¡¯s room, Li Qun pushed the door open. The room was dark and so quiet that there was not even the sound of breathing. Li Qun raised his hand and turned on the lights. With elegant, minimalist European-style decor, the white quilt was slightly raised on the clean bed. Cheng Xin was lying on the bed. Her eyes were closed, and her breathing was even. Her pink lips were moist, making people want to have a taste. Li Qun narrowed his eyes and sized up Cheng Xin. Was she really sleeping? He reached out and pinched Cheng Xin¡¯s tiny face. One hand was not enough, and the other hand pinched the other side. Pain¡ª Cheng Xin frowned and cursed in her heart. She slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were as clear as obsidian but incredibly dull. Li Qun¡¯s hand let go of Cheng Xin¡¯s soft little face and pinched her nose again. It was as if he wanted to suffocate Cheng Xin to death. Cheng Xin finally climbed up to the second floor with her bare hands and entered the room. She adjusted her intense breathing, and now it was even more painful than her rapid breathing just now. ¡°Have you slept enough?¡± Li Qun released her and smiled. ¡°Come, have dinner with me.¡± Who wanted to have dinner with him?! Moreover, she was eating happily at the snack street, and the food was already choking her throat. However, Li Qun picked her up, carried her on his shoulder, and walked out before she could react. ??? Tired and with her head facing down, Cheng Xin felt even more uncomfortable. She pretended to be crazy and tried to struggle, only to hear a ¡°slap.¡± The man¡¯s large palm had hit her round butt. Chapter 16 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation It hurt. Li Qun¡¯s slap wasn¡¯t light, and it hurt Cheng Xin¡¯s butt. ¡°Are you hinting at something by moving around like that? Be careful of getting yourself into trouble.¡± Li Qun¡¯s hoarse voice entered Cheng Xin¡¯s ears. Crazy! Who was hinting at him? Thinking of the vicious words he said in the car, Cheng Xin felt dizzy. It was better not to move at this time. What if Li Qun was really that perverted? She adjusted her breathing and cursed in her heart. She did not move again. Li Qun carried her to the dining room. When Chen Yuan, Nanny Shen, and Nanny Rong saw it, they could not help but be stunned. Exquisite cutlery had been placed on the retroEuropean dining table. A bunch of fresh-picked roses was placed in a vase, beautiful and alluring. Cheng Xin was placed on the chair by Li Qun, while Li Qun sat opposite her, sizing up the silent and dazed Cheng Xin. Nanny Shen and Nanny Rong quickly divided the dinner and placed it in front of Li Qun and Cheng Xin. Li Qun picked up his chopsticks, picked up a dish, and put it into his mouth to chew slowly. However, his gaze was still on Cheng Xin, who had not moved at all. ¡°Does she usually not eat at home?¡± T The corners of Li Qun¡¯s eyes twitched as he glanced at Nanny Rong. When Nanny Rong saw Li Qun¡¯s question, she was so nervous that she was sweating. ¡°Miss usually eats very well, but she occasionally messes up.¡± As she spoke, she walked to Cheng Xin¡¯s side and gently advised, ¡°Miss, it¡¯s time to eat.¡± Cheng Xin looked at the food in front of her and complained endlessly. How could she eat?! Just now at the barbecue stall, she was already 80-90% full. Forget it, Cheng Xin had an idea. She picked up a spoon, scooped up a mouthful of soup, and stuffed it into her mouth. Gulp, gulp, gulp. As the soup was put into her mouth, half of it was swallowed, while the other half flowed out of her mouth like saliva. The soup that leaked out of her mouth dripped onto the white printed tablecloth and onto her snow-white dress. Seeing her like this, Chen Yuan could not help but hold his forehead. Who would be able to eat with such a person? Li Qun didn¡¯t mind. He stared at her with interest, and there was even a smile on his lips. ¡°So cute.¡± So, so cute?! Cheng Xin couldn¡¯t help but spit out a mouthful of soup. It almost splashed onto Li Qun¡¯s face. ¡­.. Chen Yuan felt a little nauseous, and Nanny Shen and Nanny Rong were also shocked. ¡°Young Master, s-sorry, we¡¯ll clean up immediately.¡± Nanny Shen hurriedly cleaned the table and even changed Li Qun¡¯s cutlery. Nanny Rong wanted to take Chengxin somewhere else to eat, afraid that she would anger Li Qun. ¡°Miss, let¡¯s eat somewhere else, I¡¯ll feed you.¡± ¡°No need, let her eat here.¡±Not only was Li Qun not angry, he even let Cheng Xin, who had made such a big mistake, stay by his side. Now it was Xin¡¯s turn to have a headache. This man was really hard to figure out. She had already done so much, yet Li Qun still thought she was cute?! He couldn¡¯t understand. He couldn¡¯t understand. In the hands of such a man, she was definitely doomed. It was better to escape as soon as possible. Cheng Xin thought as she mechanically opened her mouth to eat the rice that Nanny Rong fed her. It was difficult to swallow. But in order to hide it, she had to eat it. ¡°I still give a lot of money to this place. Usually, I can buy more food that she likes to eat to supplement her nutrition.¡±Li Qun narrowed his eyes and stared at Cheng Xin, who was eating with listless eyes. ¡°Don¡¯t give her junk food like barbecue.¡± Hearing this, Cheng Xin almost spat out another mouthful of rice. Was this intentional or unintentional? Did Li Qun recognize her just now? Nanny Rong did not know about the undercurrent between the two of them. She smiled and replied, ¡°How could we let Miss Eat those things? Young master, don¡¯t worry. We will take good care of miss and ensure her health.¡± Cheng Xin¡¯s scalp went numb. She did not dare to look at Li Qun. She could only hear Li Qun stand up and the sound of footsteps gradually approaching. Seeing Li Qun coming over, Nanny Rong took two steps back. She was surprised to see Li Qun standing behind Cheng Xin. He supported himself with a chair with one hand and gently stroked Cheng Xin¡¯s earlobe with the other. He bent down and whispered into her ear, ¡°That¡¯s good. My people can eat whatever they want. There will be serious consequences if they eat recklessly. Do you understand?¡± His voice was deep and pleasant, but to Cheng Xin, it sounded like the voice from the depths of hell. Chapter 17 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Cheng Xin trembled, more certain now that Li Qun had recognized her. How about¡ª Show your cards! She really couldn¡¯t stand it! Just as Cheng Xin was about to stand up, Chen Yuan suddenly said, ¡°President Li, she¡¯s not worth your time. She¡¯s just a lunatic. She¡¯s unable to understand these things.¡± Chen Yuan had known that Li Qun was possessive, but he had never thought that he would treat this woman like this. Li Qun stared at the expressionless Cheng Xin, and his gaze deepened as if he had seen through her. ¡°That¡¯s true. She¡¯s just crazy.¡± Li Qun let go of Cheng Xin¡¯s red earlobes, placed his hands on her shoulders, and chuckled. Cheng Xin did not dare move a muscle. She really did not know what Li Qun was thinking. He said that he did not recognize her, and then he said those threatening words. He said that he recognized her, and then he let her go. Why? Forget it, Cheng Xin was tired. She might as well deal with it this way. ¡°Right, is this the electronic lock of the slums? Can it be unlocked?¡± Just when Cheng Xin thought that Li Qun was going to let her go, Li Qun suddenly took her hand and touched the electronic lock on her wrist. It was the symbol of the slums. Every person who had stayed in the slums would wear such an electronic lock. ¡°Without the president¡¯s office handling it, the electronic lock, made of this special material, can not be opened. Some people escape the slums, and in order not to be recognized, they would even chop off their hands to unlock it,¡± Chen Yuan replied. To the public, the slumdogs were unworthy of being called human. That place was hell, and those who walked out from there were ghosts. Once someone found someone wearing this electronic lock in the city, they would report it to the higher-ups, and those who ran out of the slums would be punished. Cheng Xin also knew this, so she wore long sleeves to block the electronic lock when she went out. ¡°It¡¯s too eye-catching.¡±Li Qun turned the electronic lock but found that it couldn¡¯t move at all. ¡°Change it into a bracelet.¡± Chen Yuan was stunned¡ªwas there a need to change it? Anyway, this woman was just a canary in a cage and wouldn¡¯t go out at all. But he didn¡¯t dare to ask further, so he could only answer, ¡°yes.¡± ¡°By the way, I¡¯ll stay here to rest tonight,¡± Li Qun said casually. ¡­.. Cheng Xin was shocked. Stay here? Previously, she was relieved that Li Qun would stay here because she knew that Li Qun really thought of her as a substitute for his own sister. But what he said in the car made Cheng Xin no longer let down her guard against Li Qun. Just as Cheng Xin was thinking about how to deal with him tonight, a rapid ringtone sounded. Li Qun picked up the phone and stood there listening. His face suddenly turned green, like a dark cloud before a storm. The temperature in the restaurant suddenly dropped to zero. Everyone lowered their heads. ¡°Go back to the manor!¡± After hanging up the phone, Li Qun growled, turned around, and left without looking back. Chen Yuan hurriedly followed. Phew! Luckily he left. Cheng Xin let out a sigh of relief. Tonight was really too dangerous. Fortunately, she was bold now. If it was the previous her, she would have probably fainted from fear. ¡°If the young master had come a few more times, my old life would have been scared to death,¡± Nanny Rong patted her heart and muttered. Nanny Shen tidied up the table and sighed indiscernibly. ¡°I guess that old master must have brought the women back. Old Master really, he still plays with women at his age. If it wasn¡¯t for him, young master wouldn¡¯t have become like this.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Once the young master¡¯s mother left, the master married a new wife. That new wife is the young master¡¯s mother¡¯s half-sister! Isn¡¯t that ridiculous!¡± At the mention of Li Qun¡¯s father, both Shen and Rong were indignant. Li Qun¡¯s mother had also passed away? Cheng Xin mechanically continued to take the food from Rong. When she thought of Li Qun¡¯s childishness in front of her, she felt a little upset. But these things had nothing to do with her. The most important thing now was to leave this place. Her sixth sense had always been very accurate. She felt that Li Qun already knew something. Staying any longer was not the way. Leaving early was the right path. ¡­.. It was night. The garden was pitch black. Only a computer in the study room was shimmering. Cheng Xin picked up the Hawthorn water at the side and rubbed her stomach. Today, she had a barbecue and was forced to eat a whole bowl of rice at home. Her stomach was about to explode. Chapter 18 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation While Nanny Rong and Nanny Shen were asleep, the first thing Cheng Xin did was to make a cup of Hawthorn Water to digest her food. Then, she went into the study in the dark and turned on the computer. Fortunately, the computer did not set the password, and Cheng Xin¡¯s fingers quickly danced on the keyboard. Soon, a surveillance image appeared on the computer. It was the surveillance in the Cheng family¡¯s courtyard. On this trip to the Cheng family¡¯s courtyard, Cheng Xin found a small box filled with electronic equipment. She modified it temporarily and turned it into a surveillance camera device, then hid it in the flowers in the courtyard. Although the surveillance camera was in the courtyard, it could still capture many good things. Moreover, once the haunted incident was out, they would definitely make a move tonight, based on her understanding of the Cheng family. As expected, on the surveillance screen, many people were still standing in the Cheng family courtyard although it was late at night. It was very lively. Wei Cheng sat on her swing, wearing a pure white lace dress. Her beautiful eyes were looking straight ahead, but there was a vicious light in her eyes. Kun Cheng and Xue Lin were standing beside her, looking at a middle-aged man in a yellow robe with a compass. Mumbling something, the man picked up a basin of water and splashed it on the ground. After a while, the servants took out some copper basins. Some were burning with fire, some were water, and some were filled with the sundries left by Cheng Xin. They arranged these according to the array diagram. The middle-aged man took out a stack of talisman papers. It was quite creepy to see these at night. However, Cheng Xin found it funny¡ªafter so many years, the Cheng family hadn¡¯t improved, and they believed in these metaphysical techniques. It seemed that they really thought she was a ghost. You asked for this! The punishment for the Cheng family was far from this. Cheng Xin opened the internet phone interface, set up the synthesized voice, and called all the media in sea city. ¡°Hello, I want to report that Councilman Cheng Kun found a Taoist priest in the courtyard of his home to set up a sinister array and curse people and ghosts. If you go over now, you will definitely get the headlines.¡± The media had always liked this bizarre news, not to mention that this news was related to the councilman and the current Internet Celebrity Cheng Wei. After informing the media, Cheng Xin leaned back in her chair, holding the Hawthorn Water, and watched the lively scene leisurely. In less than five minutes, the media had already arrived at the Cheng family¡¯s entrance. They were filming something through the railings of the courtyard. The Cheng family did not realize they were already in the media¡¯s lens. The Master was still in the center of the array, mumbling. It was not until more media arrived and there was a big commotion outside that the Cheng family realized something was wrong. Cheng Kun looked outside in surprise, and the smile on Cheng Wei¡¯s face froze. There was a sea of people outside the courtyard with long spears and short cannons. ¡°Councilman Cheng, what¡¯s going on with these formations?¡± ¡°Who are you trying to curse? Is it because you¡¯re guilty?¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that you wanted to promote the development of science? Why are you so superstitious?¡± ¡­.. The crowd was in an uproar. Cheng Kun did not have time to answer these questions and hurriedly called out to the servants, ¡°Quickly take the master away! Take these things away too!¡± The Cheng family¡¯s villa was in chaos. Cheng Xin looked at all of this and laughed even more wildly. In the lower right corner of the computer, one piece of news after another popped up. [Councilman Cheng Kun¡¯s family has set up a Yin formation. His competitor is in danger!!!] [Angel or devil? Cheng Wei¡¯s family has set up a Yin Formation!] ¡­.. The media was really swift on its feet. Not bad. Cheng Xin was delighted. She finished the Hawthorn water, turned off the computer, and went back to her room to sleep. Although the Li family occupied an area and was a few hundred times more luxurious than the Cheng family, the manor was as lively as the Cheng family. ¡°Young master. You¡­ you don¡¯t need to be angry.¡± The butler looked at the broken glass in the study, trembling with fear. If someone hadn¡¯t informed master Li in time, these glass products might not have been broken into pieces now. ¡°Master asked me to tell you that he promised never to play with women again. He will listen to you obediently. Please give him another chance.¡± The butler braced himself and said these words. Chapter 19 Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation After hearing that, Li Qun kicked the butler to the ground with an unpleasant expression. ¡°Then tell him for me that if he does this again, I will find someone to castrate him!¡± Li Qun looked at him coldly and gnashed his teeth. The butler nodded repeatedly, scrambled up from the ground, and retreated. Li Qun took a deep breath and tugged at his tie. He was very frustrated. Those old geezers were thinking about getting to the top every day in the financial group. It was not easy for them to rest in the garden, but such a stupid thing happened in the manor. ¡°President Li, you asked me to investigate the woman in the garden. I¡¯ve just received the news.¡± On the way to the manor, Chen Yuan received news about Cheng Xin. It was strange. In Chen Yuan¡¯s opinion, Cheng Xin was a lunatic. He did not know why Li Qun was so concerned about her. Cheng Xin was pretty, but she was still an abnormal woman. ¡°Speak.¡± Li Qun stared at Chen Yuan and said slowly. ¡°She is not a homeless woman.¡± Seeing Li Qun¡¯s determined gaze, Chen Yuan was stunned. ¡°Yes, the person I sent to investigate said Cheng Kun sent her to the slums three years ago. But there was no information about her in the Cheng family¡¯s information. As for why Cheng Kun sent an 18-year-old girl to such a place, we still need to continue investigating.¡± In H Nation, not all people with mental illness had to be sent to the slums. In the slums, there were more people who had no one to rely on, regardless of whether they had mental illness or not. For a wealthy family like Cheng Kun to send someone to such a place by taking a detour, there was something wrong. ¡°Cheng Kun?¡± Li Qun raised his eyebrows. ¡°It¡¯s a member of Parliament. He came to the consortium to look for you earlier and wanted you to support him. He also has a daughter named Cheng Wei, a well-known internet celebrity. It¡¯s been a few days that she¡¯s come to the company to look for you. She wants to meet you and ask you to donate to the disaster area.¡± Chen Yuan then told him the basic information about each member of the Cheng family. Li Qun was not interested in these people at all. He was only interested in her. ¡°Continue investigating.¡± Li Qun wanted to know the background of the woman in the Rose Garden. ¡­.. In the manor, Li Qun did not sleep well. The matter of his father had already made him extremely angry. Without a substitute like Cheng Xin by his side, he still felt uncomfortable and had nightmares. Early in the morning, he was awakened by a nightmare. Helplessly, he got up impatiently and got up early. In the dining room, Chen Yuan had already prepared breakfast for him. ¡°President Li, did you not sleep well last night?¡±Looking at the bloodshot eyes of Li Qun and the dark circles under his eyes, Chen Yuan could not help but be concerned. Li Qun pulled out a chair and sat down. He said coldly, ¡°With so many stupid things, how can I sleep well?¡± As he said this, he glanced at the butler who was not far away. The butler immediately trembled and lowered his head. Li Qun picked up his coffee and took a sip. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of the two big words ¡°Cheng Kun¡± in the newspaper. He had just learned about the Cheng family last night. Today, it was in the headlines. Li Qun was curious. He picked up the newspaper and opened it. He saw a big photo in the headlines. In the photo, there was a man in a yellow robe sitting in the middle of the courtyard. He was holding a yellow talisman in his hand. His eyes were closed, and his lips were slightly open as if he was reading something. [Councilman Cheng Kun asked someone to do something in the middle of the night. The Ghost Formation is vicious.] With just a few words, he had explained everything. Li Qun frowned. ¡°Ghost Formation?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a kind of superstition,¡± Chen Yuan explained. ¡°I heard that this formation is extremely vicious. It can send a ghost into the eighteenth level of hell and never be reincarnated. If it is used on a person, it will also curse the person to die.¡± ¡°Who is the Cheng family using the array formation on? It¡¯s actually so vicious.¡± Li Qun looked at the report and asked. ¡°I contacted the media and asked. A reporter told me that he heard the master who cast the spell say a name.¡±Chen Yuan paused. ¡°Cheng Xin.¡± ¡°Cheng Xin.¡± Li Qun¡¯s thin lips moved, and a trace of playfulness flashed in his eyes. The lingering sound in the air was still there, but Chen Yuan was shocked by what he heard. After a moment, Li Qun stood up and slammed the newspaper on the table. He sneered and said, ¡°Chen Yuan, do you think someone will also use this method against me?¡± Chen Yuan did not know why Li Qun suddenly asked such a question. He felt a chill on his back and replied, ¡°No. You will only let them go to the eighteenth level of Hell.¡± Chapter 20 - Unabated Heat Chapter 20 Unabated Heat Li Qun was very satisfied with this answer. He chuckled, put on his coat, and said each word clearly, ¡°You said it very well. Nobody can be impudent on me. Similarly, they also can¡¯t control that little thing I raise.¡± With that, Li Qun turned around and left the manor. Dumbfounded, Chen Yuan did not move his feet for a long time. Little thing? What little thing did president Li raise recently? ¡­.. Get married. A muffled sound came from the room of the noble and elegant princess. Cheng Wei sat on the bed with her hair disheveled. Her palms had been scratched by her nails, and her eyes were full of anger. Ai Te¡¯s phone was fiercely thrown to the ground. The broken screen was full of surging evil comments. [What angel? This is a devil. ] [Those born in the same family must behave the same way. I feel disgusted after losing my fans.] [Obviously, I have done many wrong things by setting up such a formation. Go to hell.] ¡­.. How could Wei Cheng, who had always been shrouded by the halo, withstand these negative comments? Her beautiful face twisted with anger. She now looked more like a lunatic. Cheng Wei took two deep breaths and walked downstairs in a huff. Cheng Kun and Lin Xue were sitting on the sofa in the living room, frowning ¡°Dad! What the hell is going on?! Why is the PR you hired so useless?!¡± Cheng Kun didn¡¯t sleep last night to deal with this matter. Cheng Wei initially thought that the matter would be over by today, but in the end, it only turned more serious. ¡°I have already made a statement and blamed the master, saying that we were deceived by him.¡±Kun Cheng¡¯s face was dark, ¡°I also contacted the media and asked them to stop spreading it, but¡­ the popularity still couldn¡¯t be reduced.¡± ¡°It must be your competitors who took the opportunity to ruin your reputation.¡±Wei Cheng immediately reacted. Kun Cheng thought the same and cursed, ¡°I think so too, a bunch of b*stards!¡± While the father and daughter were angry, Xue Lin¡¯s face was pale. She said softly, ¡°You, don¡¯t you think that this, this is Little Xin¡¯s ghost causing trouble? ¡°We¡¯re doing it so privately. Why would we suddenly attract so many media outlets¡­ Why don¡¯t we burn some paper for Little Xin and let her let us go?¡± Xue Lin thought about it all night and felt that something was wrong. It must be Cheng Xin. Wei Cheng was already angry, and after hearing Xue Lin¡¯s words, she became even more unhappy. ¡°Dream on! You want me to burn paper money for her?! Dream on!¡± After saying that, Wei Cheng went upstairs in a bad mood. Kun Cheng looked at his daughter¡¯s back and rolled his eyes at Xue Lin. ¡°Look at you. You¡¯ve driven Weiwei away again. I still have to rely on her to clean up our Cheng Family!¡± ¡°Rely on her?¡± Lin Xue was puzzled, then quickly objected. ¡°You¡¯re planning to push Weiwei to the center of the storm? No way!¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to care about that. I¡¯ll talk to Weiwei. She¡¯ll agree.¡± After saying that, Cheng Kun left Lin Xue alone in the living room and followed Cheng Wei upstairs. ¡­.. The Garden of Roses was quiet today. Cheng Xin had seen the headlines early in the morning. Mother Shen and mother Rong even talked about this matter before her. They said a few bad things about Cheng Wei. Cheng Xin felt happy listening to them, and she was delighted the whole day. The craftsman that Chen Yuan found also came to make the pot. He turned her electronic lock into a crystal clear bracelet. The color of the jade made her skin look even fairer and more delicate. The quality of the bracelet also looked expensive. ¡°Miss really likes this bracelet.¡± Seeing Cheng Xin staring at the bracelet, mother Rong couldn¡¯t help but laugh. Cheng Xin laughed foolishly. Naturally, she liked it. With this bracelet, she would no longer have to hide when she went out in the future. She was worried that she would be recognized as a slum dweller. Speaking of which, she really had to thank Li Qun. The next thing to be dealt with was that fake identity. Two days later, at night. Fortunately, Li Qun didn¡¯t come to the rose garden. While Nanny Rong and Nanny Shen were asleep, Cheng Xin put on a pair of sunglasses, called a taxi, and headed straight to the Fu Cheng Building. Today was the day she asked Qin Qi for her fake ID. At ten o¡¯clock, Fu Cheng Building was still open for business. The building was crowded and closed late. Although it was late at night, it was still brightly lit and bustling. In the garden cafe on the top floor, there was a French chanson. An extraordinary-looking man placed a cup of coffee with sugar in front of the girl opposite him with a faint smile on his face. Chapter 21 - Human Or Ghost? Chapter 21 Human Or Ghost? ¡°Weiwei, don¡¯t be so angry about ruining your health. Everyone will forget about this in a few days.¡± Cheng Wei took a sip of her coffee and looked at Feng Yi with red eyes. She said gratefully, ¡°Feng Yi, it¡¯s a good thing that you¡¯re speaking up for me in the media. Otherwise, I wouldn¡¯t know what to do.¡± It was Cheng Kun who gave Cheng Wei the idea to ask Feng Yi and the other young masters of the financial groups to put in a good word for her and vouch for her character. Although Cheng Wei was worried that getting involved with too many men would affect her innocent and pure image, she had no choice but to do this in order to reduce the negative comments. ¡°I¡¯m your boyfriend. This is what I should do.¡± Feng Yi sat beside Cheng Wei and put his arm around her shoulder. Cheng Wei leaned on her arms like a little bird, but her heart was still thinking about Li Qun. If Li Qun was her boyfriend, no media would dare to frame her like this. She still needed a man like Li Qun, who had the strength and courage. Perhaps he thought of something, Feng Yi hesitated for a moment and suddenly said, ¡°By the way, did you also go to the two young masters of the Chen family and the Liu family who spoke up for you?¡± Cheng Wei quickly explained in a coquettish manner, ¡°Of course not. They wanted to speak up for me. Brother Feng Yi, I¡¯m completely devoted to you. Don¡¯t blame me.¡± She would never tell Feng Yi that it was all because of her acting coquettishly. With Cheng Wei in his arms, Feng Yi didn¡¯t think about anything else and believed her. ¡°That¡¯s good. They¡¯re both good-for-nothings. It¡¯s better if you to stay away from them.¡± Cheng Wei nodded obediently. Feng Yi reached out to stroke her hair and said, ¡°When you graduate from university, I¡¯ll go to your house to propose marriage. At that time, we¡¯ll have a grand wedding.¡± ¡°Okay.¡±Cheng Wei leaned on Feng Yi¡¯s shoulder and looked to the other side. The love in her eyes was gone, leaving only a trace of disgust. Proposal? Wedding? Who wanted to marry him? The man who could marry her had to be the strongest. Before that, she had to get Li Qun. Just as Cheng Wei was immersed in her thoughts, a beautiful figure suddenly appeared in her line of sight. The tall girl was wearing a light yellow dress and a cream white blouse. Her black hair fluttered in the wind. Although it wasn¡¯t a brand new style, it made her look fresh and elegant. This was a really good outfit. Cheng Wei complimented her in her heart. She looked up, wanting to see what this woman looked like. If she didn¡¯t look, she wouldn¡¯t know, but when she looked, she was shocked. The woman stood still, as if she was looking for something. She took off her sunglasses, revealing a pure face. Cheng, Cheng Xin?! Cheng Wei¡¯s brain buzzed, and her eyes widened. The coffee in her hand fell on her and Feng Yi. Feng Yi was shocked. He quickly stood up and looked at the stain on his pants. He frowned slightly. ¡°Weiwei, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Cheng Wei didn¡¯t answer. She didn¡¯t even care about her white dress that was soaked in coffee. She was looking in Cheng Xin¡¯s direction with a pale face. Feng Yi was about to look in that direction, but Cheng Wei pulled him back. ¡°Feng¡­ Feng Yi, l-I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯ve been too tired recently. I was a little absent-minded for a while.¡± She absolutely couldn¡¯t let Feng Yi see Cheng Xin. She had seen how much Feng Yi liked Cheng Xin before. Feng Yi was now her backup plan, and she didn¡¯t want Feng Yi to reunite with Cheng Xin. What if their old relationship rekindled?! Thinking of what Cheng Wei had experienced in the past two days, Feng Yi could understand. He said helplessly, ¡°Let¡¯s go to the bathroom to deal with it. We¡¯ll buy a new one later.¡± Cheng Wei agreed and went to the washroom with Feng Yi. However, as soon as Feng Yi walked into the men¡¯s washroom, Cheng Wei immediately turned around and ran wildly in the garden on the top floor of the Fucheng building, ignoring the eyes of others. She couldn¡¯t be mistaken! The woman just now was Cheng Xin! She squeezed through the crowd and looked around in panic, but she didn¡¯t see Cheng Xin again. How could it be?! Could it be that what she saw was not a human, but a ghost?! Cheng Wei stumbled and lost her mind, looking very pathetic. ¡°Isn¡¯t this Cheng Wei? Why does she look like a crazy person?¡± A soft murmur entered her ears. Someone recognized her. ¡°Isn¡¯t that right? The house has set up a ghost boundary.¡± Chapter 22 - She Was Human Chapter 22 She Was Human Cheng Wei¡¯s face alternated between green and white. She looked down and saw the coffee stain on her white dress. It was too embarrassing. She covered her face and rushed to the bathroom. Suddenly, a hand patted her shoulder. Cheng Wei turned around and saw Cheng Xin¡¯s approaching face. That pair of eyes that she was very familiar with was staring straight at her. ¡°Ah!!!¡± Cheng Wei shrieked and fell to the ground in fright. Her ruckus attracted the attention of many people. Some people even started to take out their phones and Pat her. ¡°Miss, are you okay?¡± Xin reached out to help Cheng Wei and asked with concern. Cheng Wei¡¯s face was full of fear. She wanted to avoid Cheng Xin, but she had already held her hand. Her hand was warm. She was human. A hint of surprise flashed in Cheng Wei¡¯s eyes. Soon, she was no longer so afraid. Tch, so she was deliberately mystifying. Cheng Wei let Cheng Xin hold her hand and stood up from the ground. She looked at her coldly. ¡°You¡¯re not dead?¡± ¡°Hmm? Miss, what did you say?¡± Cheng Xin didn¡¯t understand. She looked very innocent. Cheng Wei had always hated Cheng Xin¡¯s innocent look. Previously, she had been like this. She had cheated many men into liking her, including Feng Yi. After not seeing her for three years, she was still like this. Cheng Wei snorted coldly. ¡°What are you pretending for? Aren¡¯t you the one who came to my house to cause trouble? Cheng Xin, you escaped from the slums. Have you thought about what might happen to you?¡± Cheng Xin still had a blank look on her face, pretending not to understand. ¡°Miss, I don¡¯t know you. Why are you saying these things?¡± Cheng Wei saw that Cheng Xin refused to admit it and became even angrier. ¡°Ha! Still pretending? Just you wait, I¡¯ll get father to send someone to send you back to the slums!¡± This b*tch! She¡¯s actually not dead?! Cheng Wei was unwilling to let it go. She picked up her phone and was about to call Cheng Kun. A surprised voice sounded, ¡°Cheng-cheng Xin?¡± It was Feng Yi. Cheng Wei¡¯s body stiffened. She saw Feng Yi standing not far away, his gaze fixed on Cheng Xin. At that moment, only Cheng Xin was left in Feng Yi¡¯s eyes. It was as if his soul had been lured away. Cheng Wei gritted her teeth. Cheng Xin found it interesting-another old acquaintance. However, she still looked at Feng Yi with confusion. ¡°Cheng Xin, where have you been for the past three years? Weiwei and I have been looking for you!¡± Feng Yi strode to Cheng Xin, surprised and happy. Cheng Xin was puzzled. ¡°Looking for me?¡± Previously, Cheng Wei had never admitted that they were sisters. She claimed that they were just friends. ¡°Yeah, after you went missing three years ago, I went to the school to check your information. But the school said that you were taken away by your family. And because of your family, your information has been turned into a secret.¡± So, this was how the Cheng family erased all traces of her. How ridiculous. Cheng Wei saw that Feng Yi no longer cared about her and was furious. However, as there were too many people around, she tried her best to hold it in. She squeezed out a smile and grabbed Feng Yi¡¯s arm. ¡°That¡¯s right, Little Xin. We¡¯ve never given up on looking for you. Where did you go?¡± ¡°But, didn¡¯t you just say that I escaped from the slums?¡± Cheng Xin asked as if nothing had happened. Cheng Wei¡¯s expression changed drastically. Feng Yi turned to look at Cheng Wei with a puzzled face. ¡°Slums?¡± Cheng Wei¡¯s face turned pale. She didn¡¯t expect Cheng Xin to say this out loud. Previously, she told Feng Yi that Cheng Xin had gone missing and she didn¡¯t know where she went. After a moment of silence, Cheng Xin slowly said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, you have mistaken me for someone else. I¡¯m not the person you¡¯re looking for.¡± ¡°How can that be? You look exactly like Xiao Xin,¡± Feng Yi said anxiously. Xiao Xin? Hearing Feng Yi calling her that, Cheng Wei became even angrier. ¡°Xiao Xin, let¡¯s go to the coffee shop. We haven¡¯t seen each other for so long, and we have a lot to talk to you about. Maybe you¡¯ll remember us then.¡± Cheng Wei didn¡¯t want to let Cheng Xin run away just like that. She held Cheng Xin¡¯s arm like a good sister and led her to the coffee shop. When they reached the coffee shop, Cheng Wei pressed Cheng Xin on the sofa and let Feng Yi sit across from her. This was no invitation. It was clearly an escort. Chapter 23 - Im Called Lobster Chapter 23 I¡¯m Called Lobster After Cheng Wei sat down, she took out her cell phone and quickly sent a message to Cheng Kun, asking him to send someone to take Cheng Xin away. After sending the message, she turned to look at Feng Yi, only to see him staring straight at Cheng Xin, his eyes full of the lost joy he had regained. Cheng Wei clenched her fists, but she couldn¡¯t lose her temper, attempting to preserve her image. She sat next to Feng Yi and clung to him as if she was declaring her sovereignty. She said, ¡°Little Xin, I forgot to tell you. I¡¯m with Feng Yi now. You should give us your blessing, right?¡± So, she was called here to show off their love? Cheng Xin looked at them coldly, as if it had nothing to do with her. Feng Yi was a little embarrassed. After all, he had chased Cheng Xin before. ¡°No, that¡¯s right. I¡¯m with Weiwei now.¡± Cheng Xin¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change. She said calmly, ¡°You really have the wrong person. I¡¯m not the Cheng Xin you¡¯re talking about.¡± As she said that, she took out the fake ID she had just gotten from Qin Qi. Her slender fingers blocked the other information, leaving only her name and photo. ¡°My name is Lobster.¡± ¡°Huh?!¡±Feng Yi and Cheng Wei¡¯s reactions were similar to Qin Qi¡¯s. Cheng Xin was serious as she looked at the funny expressions on their faces. ¡°L-lobster?¡±Feng Yi looked at the ID and then at Cheng Xin. Why did such a beautiful girl have such a shocking name? ¡°Right, now you know that you have found the wrong person.¡± Cheng Xin put her identification card back into her bag and prepared to leave. Did she really get the wrong person? In terms of appearance, the woman and Cheng Xin looked precisely the same in front of her. But upon closer inspection, the temperament of this woman was utterly different from Cheng Xin¡¯s. Cheng Xin was usually submissive, but this woman had a determined look in her eyes, and she did not look easy to provoke. Cheng Wei was not reconciled and grabbed Cheng Xin¡¯s wrist. ¡°Miss, what are you doing?¡± Cheng Xin frowned and looked at Cheng Wei warily. Cheng Wei pulled Cheng Xin¡¯s sleeve abruptly, wanting to see if there was an electronic lock on her wrist, but she didn¡¯t know that this behavior was vulgar to others. Feng Yi also felt that Cheng Wei was too aggressive, so he couldn¡¯t help but frown. III ¡°I¡¯m¡­ sorry.¡± Cheng Wei hurriedly let go of Cheng Xin¡¯s hand and stammered, ¡°I, I just want to confirm¡­ you really don¡¯t have twin sisters?¡± Cheng Xin was displeased and said coldly, ¡°You guys are bizarre. I still have something to do, so I¡¯ll leave first.¡± After saying that, she turned around and walked out. ¡°Don¡¯t go!¡± Cheng Wei shouted and chased after her. It was not easy to catch her, so how could Cheng Wei let her go so easily? Whether she was Cheng Xin or not, it would not be wrong to let Cheng Kun send her to the slums! ¡°Weiwei, what¡¯s wrong?¡± Feng Yi was also baffled by Cheng Wei¡¯s behavior. Looking at her, she didn¡¯t look like she was looking for Cheng Xin at all. Instead, she felt a little guilty. Cheng Wei was worried that she would be exposed. She rolled her eyes and explained, ¡°I¡­ I just miss Little Xin too much. It¡¯s not easy to see someone who looks like her, so I was too excited for a moment.¡± ¡°Miss Long, it¡¯s fate that we met. Why don¡¯t¡­ we sit down and get to know each other?¡± Cheng Wei had to calm this woman down. She wasn¡¯t afraid of anything, but just in case. Cheng Xin looked at Cheng Wei indifferently as if she was looking at a stranger. ¡°We don¡¯t know each other, so nothing to talk about.¡± Cheng Wei grabbed Cheng Xin¡¯s hand and pulled her back to the sofa. She smiled and said, ¡°C¡¯mon, Miss Long. I¡¯ve offended you just now, and I apologize.¡± ¡°Yes, Miss Long. Weiwei was just too excited just now. Since fate has brought us together, let¡¯s get to know each other,¡± Feng Yi said to Cheng Xin, reluctant to part with her. Cheng Xin raised her eyes and looked at the two people singing along with each other, feeling disgusted. Seeing that Cheng Xin didn¡¯t leave, Feng Yi promptly handed her his business card and said, ¡°Hello, Miss Long. I¡¯m Feng Yi. This is my business card.¡± ¡°You should know me. I¡¯m Cheng Wei.¡±Cheng Wei felt that she was a household name. Even when she introduced herself, she still acted arrogantly. Cheng Xin took the business card. She was also used to Cheng Wei¡¯s behavior. She looked at the words ¡°Feng Corporation¡± on the business card and pretended to be surprised. ¡°So you¡¯re Feng Yi, the rumored boyfriend of the internet celebrity Cheng Wei? Didn¡¯t Cheng Wei say that you were just ordinary friends when she was interviewed?¡± Chapter 24 - A Sorry State Chapter 24 A Sorry State ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you guys are playing your own games? I just saw the news. Several young masters of financial groups are standing up for Cheng Wei.¡± As soon as he said that, Cheng Wei and Feng Yi¡¯s faces turned green and white. ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense!¡± Cheng Wei glared at Cheng Xin unhappily. Feng Yi held Cheng Wei¡¯s hand and explained. ¡°Weiwei is still studying, and she is a public figure. I don¡¯t want to put her in too much trouble. When she graduates, we will make it public.¡± ¡°You¡¯re already a big internet celebrity, so why are you afraid of trouble? Mr. Feng, you¡¯re not a spare tire, are you?¡± Cheng Xin said with great interest, watching Feng Yi¡¯s expression change. Her words really hit Feng Yi¡¯s sore spot. At the same time, it also made Cheng Wei feel incredibly guilty. She was so embarrassed that she became angry. She stood up and pointed at Cheng Xin¡¯s nose and scolded, ¡°Cheng Xin, stop pretending!¡± How could a stranger target her? ¡°Since we don¡¯t get along, let¡¯s not talk anymore.¡± Cheng Xin stood up again and didn¡¯t want to talk to Cheng Wei anymore. ¡°I¡¯m like this. I¡¯m more straightforward.¡± With that, Cheng Xin left. Cheng Wei gnashed her teeth and chased after her. ¡°Cheng Xin, don¡¯t go!¡± Cheng Xin heard Cheng Wei¡¯s footsteps and predicted her direction in time. She dodged easily. However, Cheng Wei exerted too much strength. She stumbled, bumping into the waiter who was serving coffee. With a muffled sound and two screams, Cheng Wei and the waiter fell together. The hot coffee splashed all over Cheng Wei¡¯s body and even her face. ¡°Ahhh,¡± Cheng Wei was scalded so badly that she kept screaming. Bystanders couldn¡¯t help but look at her. ¡°Sorry, I didn¡¯t mean to. Are you okay?¡± Cheng Xin pretended to be surprised and then said apologetically. Feng Yi saw this and quickly ran up to Cheng Wei, looking worried. ¡°Weiwei, are you okay?¡± Cheng Wei¡¯s face was already red from the coffee, and the fresh stains on her white dress were mixed with the old ones. When had she ever been in such a sorry state?! All of this was because of this b*tch, Cheng Xin! ¡°Cheng Xin! You did it on purpose! You deliberately made me fall! And you even allowed the hot coffee to spill all over me!¡± If Feng Yi hadn¡¯t held her back, Cheng Wei would have come forward and beat Cheng Xin up. It was also the first time Feng Yi had seen Cheng Wei being such a shrew. He felt disgusted, but he still held her back and asked, ¡°Weiwei, are you in pain? Do you want to go to the hospital to have a look?¡± ¡°Miss, don¡¯t beat me up in public. You clearly didn¡¯t pay attention just now and bumped into me,¡± the waiter who was knocked down got up from the ground and muttered. ¡°You!¡± Cheng Wei wanted to give the waiter two slaps to teach her a good lesson, but she could only give up when she thought of Feng Yi and the other customers. Today was really a bad day! Cheng Xin was really unlucky! ¡°Mr. Feng, I see that your girlfriend fell quite badly. You¡¯d better send her to the hospital as soon as possible.¡± Cheng Xin glanced at Cheng Wei¡¯s ankle. Because she was wearing high heels when she fell, her ankle was already swollen. ¡°I¡¯m leaving first.¡± Seeing that Cheng Xin was about to leave, Cheng Wei took a step forward to chase after her, but the pain from her ankle made her frown and stop. ¡°Miss Long, could you give us your contact information? I¡¯m really sorry about what happened today. We really miss our friend so much that we got too excited and offended her.¡± Feng Yi was as unwilling as Cheng Wei. He called out to Cheng Xin, ¡°We can contact each other again later and have a good chat.¡± Cheng Wei held back her anger. She didn¡¯t explode. It was good that she left her contact information. At least she could find this woman later. Cheng Xin didn¡¯t even turn her head and walked straight ahead. ¡°Sorry, I didn¡¯t bring my cell phone.¡± ¡°Then it¡¯s my birthday party next Saturday at 8. It¡¯s at the Lakeside Hotel. Please come!¡± In order to catch this woman, Cheng Wei had to invite her to his birthday party. By then, he would set a trap in advance and send this woman back to the slums. Cheng Xin didn¡¯t answer. She waved at them and left. ¡°Please come, Miss Long!¡± Feng Yi thought Cheng Wei was sincerely inviting him, so he agreed. Chapter 25 - It Must Be Cheng Xin Chapter 25 It Must Be Cheng Xin ¡°Weiwei, I¡¯ll send you to the hospital.¡± Looking at Cheng Wei¡¯s swollen ankle and the red burn marks on her face, Feng Yi¡¯s heart ached slightly. ¡°My Face¡­ Woo¡­¡±Cheng Wei took out a small mirror and looked at the burn on her face, tears streaming down her face. ¡°It¡¯s okay. I¡¯ll go to the hospital to buy a burn ointment later. It¡¯ll heal very quickly. Come, let me carry you.¡±Feng Yi carried Cheng Wei horizontally and prepared to send her to the hospital. Cheng Wei was very famous and had caused such a farce. Many people were watching from the side. She hurriedly covered her face, not wanting to be laughed at. But it still didn¡¯t stop others from looking at her mockingly. ¡°Cheng Wei! Cheng Wei! I¡¯m your collegemate, Qin Qi!¡± Suddenly, a man¡¯s voice sounded. It wasn¡¯t easy to see the goddess, so Qin Qi naturally had to perform well. What if he left an impression on the goddess? What kind of f*cking classmate? Why didn¡¯t he die?! Why did he have to follow her and watch the joke?! Cheng Wei buried her face in Feng Yi¡¯s arms, feeling extremely frustrated. Qin Qi didn¡¯t give up and followed her, chattering non-stop with Cheng Wei. ¡°I saw you guys with crayfish just now. Do you guys know each other?¡± He came here to give Cheng Xin a fake certificate, but in the end, he bumped into the scene where Cheng Wei was chasing Cheng Xin. Cheng Wei couldn¡¯t care less about being embarrassed when she heard ¡°Lobster.¡± She looked up at Qin Qi and asked, ¡°Do you know her?¡± Although her face was burned, it still couldn¡¯t stop Cheng Wei¡¯s beauty. Qin Qi was elated that his goddess could talk to him. He quickly nodded and said, ¡°Yes, yes.¡± ¡°How did you two meet?¡±Cheng Wei vaguely felt that Qin Qi would be the breakthrough. Qin Qi was stunned. He couldn¡¯t possibly say that he was threatened after failing to flirt with her, right? Faced with the Goddess¡¯s questioning, he could only say, ¡°She asked me to do something.¡± Do something? Cheng Wei suddenly thought of Qin Qi¡ªhe was pretty famous in school. The reason why he was famous was that his family applied for a fake certificate. Many students had asked him to apply for some fake certificates. Could it be that Cheng Xin knew him because he applied for a fake certificate? ¡°I remember that your family applied for a fake certificate, right?¡± Cheng Wei probed. Qin Qi was surprised and happy-the goddess actually remembered him?! ¡°Yes, yes.¡± Nonetheless, applying for a fake certificate was an unglamorous affair and Qin Qi was still embarrassed. Cheng Wei was more and more sure that the lobster was just a cover. That woman was clearly Cheng Xin! Ha! She really ran out of the slums! However, how could she not have an electronic lock on her hand? Feng Yi carried Cheng Wei to the front of the car. Qin Qi was still following them, but he was chased away by Feng Yi¡¯s driver. ¡°Who are you? How dare you follow our young master?!¡± ¡°Get lost quickly!¡± Qin Qi was speechless. He could only watch helplessly as Feng Yi brought Cheng Wei into the car. Feng Yi glared at him coldly and closed the car door with force. ¡°Weiwei, are you okay? What happened to you today? Why did you lose your composure?¡± After getting into the car, Feng Yi looked at Cheng Wei with concern. Cheng Wei sniffed and sobbed. ¡°I just missed Little Xin too much. That¡¯s why I was so excited.¡± Did he really miss her? Feng Yi kept feeling that something was wrong. ¡°But why didn¡¯t Little Xin introduce herself to us? My classmate also said just now that she was looking for him to apply for a fake ID. The identity of crayfish must be fake!¡±Cheng Wei cried like a pear blossom in the rain. Those who didn¡¯t know would think she missed him too much. Seeing this, the doubts in Feng Yi¡¯s heart still didn¡¯t disappear. Puzzled, he asked, ¡°That¡¯s true. But, Weiwei, how did you know that Little Xin is in the slums? Isn¡¯t she missing?¡± Cheng Wei froze. Damn, Cheng Xin! She actually told Feng Yi about this! At this point, Cheng Wei had no choice but to lean on Feng Yi and put her arms around his neck. While crying, she said coquettishly, ¡°My¡­ My dad sent people to look for her before. Someone said that she might be in the slums. I¡­ I thought that she was really there. Although my dad sent people to look for her in the slums, they couldn¡¯t find her.¡± After hearing this explanation, Feng Yi didn¡¯t suspect that he was there. His heart ached so much that he hugged Cheng Wei tightly. ¡°It¡¯s okay. You can see her again at the birthday party next week,¡± Feng Yi comforted her. Heh, would cheng Xin really come? If she came, wouldn¡¯t she be sending herself to her death? Just now, she invited Cheng Xin just to be lucky and pretend in front of Feng Yi. Chapter 26 - He Sold Her Chapter 26 He Sold Her As night fell, the shopping mall was still brightly lit. Cheng Xin had just seen Feng Yi leaving with Cheng Wei, and she saw Cheng Kun¡¯s men searching for her everywhere in the shopping mall. Sure enough, Cheng Wei was deliberately stalling for time. It turned out that she had already informed Cheng Kun and wanted to take her away. Cheng Xin sneered, turned around, and walked into the night. The night breeze was a little chilly. She hugged herself tightly to warm herself up, and her eyes were cold. When she was 18 years old, she had worked part time in the school¡¯s snack bar to foot her living expenses. That day at the snack bar, a rich young master saw her beauty and teased her with obscene words. Cheng Xin was still a coward at that time. She dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. Feng Yi suddenly appeared like her savior and chased away the rich young master for her. She still remembered Feng Yi¡¯s coldness when he was scolding that rich young master. She also remembered Feng Yi¡¯s gentle and concerned gaze when he looked at her later on. From that day on, Feng Yi often came to the snack bar and even waited for her to get off work. Feng Yi, who was standing at the snack bar entrance, was tall and slender. His refined temperament was very similar to that of an ancient scholar. Feng Yi also often brought her small gifts. Sometimes, it was expensive imported chocolate, and sometimes, it was a bunch of flowers. Only then did she know that Feng Yi fell in love with her at first sight. When she was young, Cheng Xin even had a fairy-tale dream. She knew Feng Yi¡¯s identity, the second young master of the Feng Corporation. His dignity was completely different from hers. The two of them were like people from two other worlds. Cheng Xin had a beautiful dream, but it was shattered entirely by Cheng Wei. After Cheng Wei found out that Feng Yi had a good impression of Cheng Xin, she started to make a big fuss and ordered Cheng Xin to set her up with Feng Yi. Cheng Xin was weak, and she thanked the Cheng family. She listened to Cheng Wei and tried to create opportunities for Feng Yi and Cheng Wei. After that, the Cheng family sent her to an old man¡¯s bed. At that time, she came to her senses and completely exploded. She stabbed the old man to death and escaped. Cheng Kun sent people to look for her everywhere. Cheng Xin had no choice but to look for Feng Yi. She thought that Feng Yi would stand on her side and help her escape. However, before she could tell Feng Yi the truth, Feng Yi called Cheng Wei and sold her out. In the end, she was found by the Cheng family and sent to the slums. She thanked Feng Yi for being the light in her dark life, but she also hated him for betraying her without saying a word. She had clearly warned him not to tell anyone that she had come to look for him. Whatever. She didn¡¯t want to think about it anymore. Cheng Xin took a deep breath and took out the fake ID. According to Qin Qi¡¯s intention, she could rely on this fake ID to survive in H Nation. In that case, it was also time to leave the garden. Li Qun seemed to have begun to suspect her, and he also had an impulse towards her. But as a substitute, she could tolerate it. She couldn¡¯t tolerate being a sex-machine. This time, when she returned, she would pack her things and leave quickly. Anyway, she was mentally ill, and when the time came, she would say that she had escaped due to illness. ¡­.. Before Cheng Xin returned to the garden, she ran to the lakeside near the garden and buried the password box she had brought back at the Lakeside. After returning to the garden, she quickly tidied up and planned to run away the following day. When she woke up the next day, it was already noon. She was sitting up on the bed when she suddenly heard movement from downstairs. ¡°Young Master, you¡¯re here.¡± ¡°Miss is still sleeping. I¡¯ll call her for you.¡± Li Qun is here?! Cheng Xin sucked in a breath of cold air and randomly put on her clothes. She put on a dull look and walked out of the room with a silly smile. She bumped into Nanny Rong, who came to call her. ¡°Miss, you¡¯re finally awake. Young master is here.¡± Nanny Rong hurriedly led Cheng Xin to the bathroom to wash up while helping her tidy up. ¡°Miss, you¡¯re beautifully dressed. Young Master must be happy.¡± Beautifully dressed? So she had to dress up for Li Qun? Cheng Xin was speechless. After a simple wash and comb, Nanny Rong pulled Cheng Xin into the living room. The air was filled with the fragrance of roses. Li Qun was sitting on the big sofa with his long legs spread apart. He was wearing a simple white shirt. The sleeves were slightly rolled, revealing the perfect outline of his elbows. His slender fingers flexibly manipulated a game controller as his eyes glued themselves to the television. He actually played video games? Chapter 27 - Dont Even Think About Escape Chapter 27 Don¡¯t Even Think About Escape ¡°Sir, I¡¯ve already arranged for the stock market. We can make money today,¡± Chen Yuan said as he stood beside Li Qun. ¡°Okay.¡± Li Qun did not even raise his head. Chen Yuan glanced at the television and continued to report, ¡°About that¡­ about the private meeting between Vice President Chen and President Yada¡­¡± ¡°You still need to report this to me? You know what will happen to such a person who betrayed me.¡± Li Qun¡¯s eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. Out of his eye, he caught a glimpse of white. Li Qun looked up and saw Cheng Xin, who was wearing a white lace nightgown, slowly coming down the stairs. She revealed her shoulders, and her black hair fell to the side. Her gaze was dull, but it could not hide her beauty. Li Qun stared straight at her and gestured at her. ¡°Come here.¡± Calling her was like calling a puppy. Cheng Xin did not move, but Nanny Rong pulled her to Li Qun with a smile. Li Qun grabbed her slender wrist and pulled her to his lap. He wrapped her in his arms and held the game controller again. Cheng Xin¡¯s body stiffened, and she did not dare to move. What did that mean?! Why was she sitting on his lap?! She could even feel Li Qun¡¯s warm breath. Wasn¡¯t that too intimate?! Forget it. Endure it. When he left, she could escape. However, Li Qun did not let her go. He stuffed the handle into her hand and placed his hands on hers. It looked like he wanted to teach her how to play a game. ¡°Your hands are so cold?¡± Li Qun whispered into her ear. Filled with inducement, it was like a small electric current passing through her earlobe. Then, Li Qun held Cheng Xin¡¯s hand and gently stroked it. He looked like he wanted to warm her hand. Chen Yuan could tell at a glance that Li Qun¡¯s mind was not on the game at all. CEO Li¡¯s gaze was really a little strange. Chen Yuan tactfully put away the document in his hand, gave Nanny Rong a look, and took her out of the living room. ¡°I¡¯ve caught it!¡± Li Qun suddenly tightened his grip on her, making her unable to move. He whispered in her ear again. Cheng Xin was shocked and almost broke free from Li Qun¡¯s arms. She looked up and saw that the game had ended. He was playing a chase game. Cheng Xin felt a little guilty. Could it be¡­ Li Qun knew that she was going to escape? No, she must be overthinking. Cheng Xin¡¯s heart was in her throat. ¡°In this world, no one can escape from me, Li Qun.¡± Li Qun¡¯s thin lips curved into an arc as he said leisurely behind Cheng Xin. ¡°All those who try to escape will be like the people in this game, kidnapped by me. ¡°And then¡­ ¡°Bang! It was so scary. Cheng Xin held her breath and resisted the panic in her heart. He must have known something! These words were clearly meant for her to hear! It was clearly a deep and pleasant male voice, but now it sounded like a voice from hell. ¡°President Li, I have already sent someone to deal with Vice President Chen. He is already feeding the fish in the sea.¡± Coincidentally, after Chen Yuan settled this matter, he thought about it and still came to report. Li Qun waved at him and sent him away. Then, he looked down at Cheng Xin in his arms, pinched her chin, and forced her to look at him. ¡°Little Thing, don¡¯t be like the people in the game or Vice President Chen. I saved you from the slums and raised you out of kindness, not to let you escape.¡± ¡°If you escape¡­¡± Cheng Xin¡¯s scalp went numb. Li Qun paused, and the smile on his lips became even more devilish. ¡°I¡¯ll Bury you under the rose bushes as fertilizer.¡± ¡°Seeing those roses like this is the same as seeing you.¡± Was he telling a ghost story? Cheng Xin¡¯s back broke out in a cold sweat. But facing Li Qun¡¯s gaze, she had to remain calm. ¡°In the entire H nation, there is no one I can¡¯t find. So, don¡¯t think of escaping.¡± Li Qun¡¯s voice was cold and domineering. Cheng Xin would have definitely fallen if it weren¡¯t for Li Qun dragging her. Was this man a mind reader? She suspected that he knew that she was going to escape. But why didn¡¯t he directly deal with her and even go in circles with her? It was simply torturing her! ¡°Are you afraid? Looks like you¡¯re not that crazy after all.¡± Li Qun pinched her nose and sneered. Cheng Xin¡¯s brain was buzzing. She could not understand the man in front of her. She had been in the slums for three years, but she had never seen such a difficult person. Chapter 28 - Turning Into Spring Mud To Protect The Flowers Chapter 28 Turning Into Spring Mud To Protect The Flowers After saying this, Li Qun looked away and continued to play video games with her. It was as if nothing had happened just now. Cheng Xin couldn¡¯t understand this man even more. She sat on his lap numbly, not in the mood to watch the games on TV. Even the rose fragrance in the air made Cheng Xin shudder. It was as if these roses were raised with her corpse. After Li Qun left, Cheng Xin gave up the idea of escaping Although she did not know if Li Qun had seen through her, he did not do anything to her at the moment. At least she was safe. She might really ¡°turn into spring mud to protect the flowers if she escaped.¡± At the moment, her enemies were still the Cheng family. After reading the news these two days, the news of the Cheng family setting up the ghost boundary had already died down. As expected, the internet had no memory. After a while, no one would remember this matter at all. Cheng Kun was still the senator with a bright official future, and Cheng Wei was still the ¡°goddess¡± everyone worshipped. Cheng Xin used all her efforts to run out of the garden, but it was just an appetizer for the Cheng family. However, there was still a long way to go. Cheng Xin suddenly thought of the birthday party that Cheng Wei had told her about. Cheng Wei¡¯s birthday party, she would definitely organize it with great fanfare. Cheng Xin thought about it and had a plan in her heart. Just as she was thinking about it, Nanny Shen carried big and small bags of things and walked over happily. ¡°Miss, look how much Young Master cares about you. He bought you so many beautiful clothes.¡± As she said this, Nanny Shen took out all kinds of dresses from the bag. Cheng Xin looked over and saw that they were all exquisite high-end fashions. There were even gowns among them. Li Qun was fascinating. He threatened her while treating her well. She didn¡¯t know what he was planning. Cheng Xin shook her head and chased this man out of her mind. She was clearly thinking about how to deal with the Cheng family. In the blink of an eye, it was Saturday. The Lakeside Hotel, which looked like a sailboat, stood tall beside the Qingcheng Lake in sea city, its lights flickering. The banquet hall was meticulously decorated, with top-quality ceramic cutlery neatly laid on the dining table. The guests chatted and laughed heartily, eating delicacies while waiting for the main character to appear. ¡°Sigh, this Cheng family sure is wealthy. They directly reserved this floor. Even the most difficult banquet hall was reserved.¡± ¡°Exactly. Such extravagance is rare even in H Nation.¡± ¡°As expected of the senator¡¯s daughter¡­ Tsk-tsk.¡± ¡­.. The guests did not forget to discuss and praise the Cheng family¡¯s big spending this time. Only Cheng Wei knew that the whole thing was actually Feng Yi¡¯s doing this time. Feng Yi must have asked his father to help him. Cheng Wei understood how good Feng Yi had been to her. However, Feng Yi¡¯s status was far from enough. Cheng Wei had just put on the high-class dress that she had found a designer to customize with the help of a few good friends. She was sitting beside the dressing table, carefully selecting the jewelry box¡¯s jewelry. ¡°How about this pair of pearl earrings?¡± Cheng Wei picked up the pair of pearl earrings. They were the treasures that Feng Yi had spent a lot of effort to find for her. Yu Jing chimed in and praised, ¡°They¡¯re so beautiful. They match your outfit today! Cheng Wei smiled and put on the pearl earrings. She looked at herself in the mirror and admired them several times. ¡°I see that there are a lot of rich kids here today. As expected of our Weiwei.¡±Yu Jing¡¯s eyes sparkled with envy. ¡°I really envy you for having so many rich and powerful friends. Why Don¡¯t you introduce one to me?¡± Cheng Wei and Yu Jing had been friends for many years. She liked the way Yu Jing always tried to curry favor with her. This was very useful to her. ¡°Which one do you like?¡± Cheng Wei smiled slightly. ¡°Feng Yi, the second young master of the Feng family. I think he¡¯s the most handsome. Yu Jing looked like she was infatuated with him. By the way, I saw him outside the hotel just now. Can you introduce him to me?¡± She held Cheng Wei¡¯s arm intimately and didn¡¯t see the disdain in Cheng Wei¡¯s eyes. For the sake of her image and value, Cheng Wei had always claimed that she was single. Even her friends didn¡¯t know about her and Feng Yi. With Yu Jing¡¯s looks, she actually wanted to get close to Feng Yi? Heh. Cheng Wei didn¡¯t answer directly. Puzzled, she asked instead, ¡°What is Feng Yi doing outside the hotel?¡± Chapter 29 - Surprise Chapter 29 Surprise ¡°Yes,¡± Yu Jing replied, her gaze fixated on the colorful jewelry on the table. ¡°I¡¯m waiting for someone. I saw him looking left and right.¡± Waiting for someone? Cheng Wei¡¯s eyes turned cold. Who could he be waiting for? He was most likely waiting for Cheng Xin! However, how could Cheng Xin come? ¡°Alright, it¡¯s almost time. Let¡¯s go to the banquet hall.¡± Cheng Wei hid her displeasure and stood up. She called the Little Sisters and left the dressing room together. The lights in the banquet hall gradually dimmed, and everyone kept quiet as they looked at the only place that was glowing. The spotlight fell on a swing that fell from the sky. Cheng Wei, wearing a pure white gown, was sitting on the swing. The light behind her made her skin glow like snow, turning her as beautiful as a heavenly goddess descending into the world. Everyone¡¯s eyes were focused on her, and so were that of many rich kids. Cheng Wei looked down at the adoring eyes of the people below her, feeling incredibly proud. The swing slowly descended. Feng Yi was the first to walk up. Dressed in a black suit, he looked particularly well-matched with Cheng Wei. He reached out his hand to Cheng Wei gentlemanly as he invited her for a dance. Cheng Wei smiled and placed her hand in his. A round dance song sounded, and the two of them spun around, dancing in the middle of the crowd. Cheng Wei already had a foundation in dance, so she stood tall and graceful as she spun around Feng Yi. She was incredibly agile. Cheng Wei enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention. She was born to be the center of attention. ¡°Weiwei, you¡¯re gorgeous tonight.¡± Feng Yi¡¯s voice was hidden in the music, and only Cheng Wei could hear it. Cheng Wei leaned against his ear and smiled. ¡°Thank you for hosting such a nice birthday party for me.¡± Even so, Cheng Wei still felt that it would be great if the person she was dancing with tonight was Li Qun. If it was Li Qun, wouldn¡¯t he be able to buy the entire Lakeside Hotel for her? ¡°By the way, I have another surprise for you.¡± Feng Yi¡¯s voice sounded extremely gentle. Could it be that Feng Yi had bought her another expensive gift? The Pearl Earring on her ear was a Valentine¡¯s Day gift given to her by Feng Yi. He had deliberately gone abroad, visiting many auctions and antique stores before finding this pair of earrings. Cheng Wei couldn¡¯t help but be a little expectant as she guessed silently. When the song ended, the dance stopped, and so did they. ¡°Weiwei, who do you think that is?¡± Feng Yi took a step back mysteriously. Cheng Xin smiled as she looked behind him. Her smile froze on her face. In the crowd, a young girl slowly walked over. Her jet-black hair fell on her chest, and she wore a light pink strapless dress that accentuated her graceful figure. Under the light, she was exceptionally refined, completely different from those showy rich girls. ce In an instant, the focus of the audience shifted from Cheng Wei to her. Cheng Xin! She really didn¡¯t expect that she would dare to come?! Wasn¡¯t she walking into a trap?! Cheng Xin smiled at Cheng Wei. It seemed friendly, but it was clearly a provocation. Cheng Wei gnashed his teeth. ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Little Xin to really come. You can have a good chat this time.¡±Feng Yi didn¡¯t notice Cheng Wei¡¯s anger and said to himself. A good chat? Heh, who wants to have a good chat with her?! Since Cheng Xin was here, she would make Cheng Xin pay the price today! ¡°Let¡¯s Go and talk to her.¡±Feng Yi took Cheng Wei¡¯s hand and walked toward Cheng Xin. ¡°Brother Feng Yi, wait a minute.¡± Cheng Wei suddenly opened her mouth and stopped him. ¡°Uncle just called me and asked you to take a look at the company¡¯s jewelry project. Don¡¯t just think about playing.¡± Feng Yi¡¯s face instantly darkened. He had a big brother before. If he didn¡¯t work hard, there would be no position for him in the Feng family from now on. ¡°But¡­ Today is your birthday. We haven¡¯t seen Little Xin for a long time¡­¡± Feng Yi hesitated. Cheng Wei looked down. Her voice was muffled. ¡°But, if that¡¯s the case, uncle will be disappointed in you. I don¡¯t want uncle to think that I¡¯ve led you astray. Moreover, I also hope that you can improve a little and take over the Feng family¡¯s inheritance.¡± ¡°Or, do you miss your Cheng Xin too much?¡± A sour sentence was enough to make Feng Yi surrender. ¡°No, I just want to celebrate your birthday with you.¡± Feng Yi had to compromise and gently coax, ¡°I¡¯ll listen to you. You stay here and have fun. I¡¯ll come back after I¡¯m done with those things.¡± Chapter 30 - A Good Show Chapter 30 A Good Show Looking at Feng Yi¡¯s back, Cheng Wei let out a sigh of relief. He wasn¡¯t here, so she could deal with Cheng Xin. Cheng Xin was surrounded by a few wealthy young masters in the crowd. Cheng Wei gnashed her teeth in anger. She hated Cheng Xin¡¯s behavior the most, always pretending to be pure and lovely. Pui! Cheng Wei walked to her lackey, Yu Jing, and said, ¡°Do you see that woman?¡± Yu Jing followed Cheng Wei¡¯s gaze and nodded. ¡°Yes, I see her. Who Is She? She¡¯s quite beautiful.¡± Hearing Yu Jing¡¯s words, Cheng Wei almost spat out a mouthful of blood. She actually praised Cheng Xin for being beautiful?! She was blind! Cheng Wei endured it. She said leisurely, ¡°She¡¯s Feng Yi¡¯s friend. We¡¯ve met once before. ¡°I don¡¯t know what¡¯s going on with Feng Yi either, so he insisted that I invite her with me. ¡°You also know that Feng Yi helped me before, so I can only return him a favor and verbally agreed to invite her.¡± ¡°Could it be that Feng Yi likes her? She doesn¡¯t look like a person of status at all.¡± Yu Jing¡¯s expression changed drastically when she heard that Feng Yi liked Cheng Xin. Wasn¡¯t she love rival?! ¡°Just based on her?! Ha, she looks like a vixen. How dare she seduce Feng Yi?¡± Sure enough, Yu Jing immediately changed her attitude and scolded. ¡°Isn¡¯t that ao? Look, not only did she seduce Feng Yi, but she even seduced other rich young masters.¡± Cheng Wei fanned the flames and gestured for Yu Jing to look at Cheng Xin, surrounded by several men. Yu Jing understood Cheng Wei¡¯s gesture. In addition, she was also unhappy in her heart, so she followed Cheng Wei to Cheng Xin. ¡°Miss, who are you?¡±Yu Jing looked Cheng Xin up and down and interrupted the group of rich kids who were flattering her. Cheng Xin maintained a decent smile on her face. She looked up at Yu Jing and said, ¡°I¡¯m a guest invited by Cheng Wei.¡± ¡°Ah? When did I invite you? I don¡¯t even know you.¡± Cheng Wei pretended to be surprised and looked at Cheng Xin. ¡°Miss, did you make a mistake?¡± ¡°Yes, if Weiwei really invited you, please show me your invitation card.¡± Yu Jing and Cheng Wei echoed each other and cooperated very well. Cheng Xin sneered in her heart. A few days ago, she pretended to be sincere and invited her to her birthday party. Today, she pretended not to know her? It was such a pity that Cheng Wei did not enter the entertainment industry. She was so good at acting. ¡°I don¡¯t have an invitation. Miss Cheng¡¯s boyfriend, Mr. Feng, who brought me in.¡± Cheng Xin¡¯s voice was calm. Yu Jing laughed coldly. ¡°Boyfriend? What nonsense are you talking about? When did Feng Yi become Cheng Weiwei¡¯s boyfriend? You just came here to eat and drink and hook up with a rich guy, right?! How shameless!¡± Hearing this conversation, the rich kids pestering Cheng Xin looked at her differently. Cheating to eat, drink, and hook up with a rich guy? Don¡¯t get jumped by the immortals. Cheng Xin couldn¡¯t be bothered with Cheng Wei and Yu Jing. She took a bite of the biscuit in her hand as if nothing had happened. ¡°You have been exposed, and you still have the face to eat it?!¡± Seeing that she didn¡¯t care, Yu Jing was even more annoyed. ¡°How can a person like you have the face to enter the Lakeside Hotel?!¡± The liveliness over here quickly attracted the attention of others. Many people looked over and discussed animatedly. ¡°What¡¯s wrong? Did an outsider sneak in?¡± ¡°Yeah, I heard that she¡¯s not a good woman. I guess she came in to deceive the noble young master.¡± ¡°Tsk-tsk. Why would a beautiful woman do such a thing?¡± ¡­.. Cheng Wei heard these discussions and was very satisfied. She wanted everyone to humiliate Cheng Xin. She didn¡¯t deserve to be here at all. ¡°Alright, Alright. It¡¯s my birthday party today. I¡¯m sorry to spoil everyone¡¯s mood,¡± Cheng Wei pretended to be kind and considerate and apologized. ¡°Weiwei, let¡¯s get the security guards to chase this crazy woman out.¡±Yu Jing didn¡¯t want Cheng Xin to stay any longer, afraid that she would attract Feng Yi¡¯s attention. Cheng Wei listened and looked at Cheng Xin gently. ¡°Miss, are you here because you don¡¯t have enough to eat? I¡¯ll get the waiter to pack some delicious food for you to take home to eat, okay?¡± Did she really think she was a beggar? Cheng Xin found it funny. It was really a good show. Chapter 31 - Of Sound Mind Chapter 31 Of Sound Mind ¡°Cheng Wei, aren¡¯t you being too kind? She¡¯s just here to stir up trouble. You can¡¯t let her go!¡± ¡°Yeah, this kind of woman is unclean and self-righteous. She even eats and drinks! Luckily, no one fell for it!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, that¡¯s right. Weiwei, why are you so nice to her?¡± The people around started to discuss among themselves. Cheng Wei enjoyed the compliments from others and looked down at Cheng Xin. Just like before. The VIP suite upstairs was packed to the brim. Under the warm light, the man sitting in the main seat had a cold look in his eyes, and the ink-colored shirt added a bit of momentum to him. The men sitting on both sides of him looked at him with flattering smiles on their faces. ¡°President Li, here¡¯s a toast. Please take care of us in the future.¡± A man smiled ingratiatingly and held the wine glass with both hands. Li Qun glanced at him and gently shook the red wine glass in his hand, but he had no intention of drinking it. The room fell into an awkward silence. ¡°On one hand, you toast me, and on the other hand, you wish for me to die. You guys are really amazing.¡± Li Qun laughed mockingly. His eyes swept across everyone present, and the air became colder. Everyone¡¯s expression changed, and they hurriedly explained, ¡°President Li, what do you mean by this? Who wants you to die?¡± ¡°Last time, at the night market, I was almost killed by a female assassin. Who did It? Tell me yourself.¡± Li Qun played it down. ¡°Female assassin?¡± ¡°Who had the guts to do this?!¡± ¡°Fortunately, President Li is fine¡­¡± Everyone¡¯s face showed a panicked expression. Li Qun just sat there and looked at everyone coldly. Everyone looked at each other and immediately fell silent. In the silence, Li Qun stood up and walked out. ¡°I¡¯m going out to get some fresh air. When I come back, I hope that person can admit it personally. Otherwise, the consequences will be his to bear.¡± As he said this, he picked up the red wine cup and the red wine spilled onto the table like blood. Along with Li Qun¡¯s gloomy aura. Then, with a bang, the red wine glass was thrown to the ground and turned into pieces. It was as if it was hinting at the end of the intentional person. Chen Yuan hurriedly followed Li Qun¡¯s footsteps and walked out with him. The Lakeside Hotel was designed in a circular shape. Coincidentally, standing in the corridor on Li Qun¡¯s floor, one could see the banquet hall where the banquet was being held at a glance. It was so moist that Li Qun didn¡¯t care at first. However, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked down while holding the railing with both hands. Chen Yuan followed him and put the coat in his hand over Li Qun¡¯s body. Worried that he would catch a cold, he followed his gaze and looked down. He saw that the banquet hall was decorated like a garden. There was a big photo at the entrance of the venue. It was clearly the daughter of Councilman Cheng Kun, Cheng Wei. Then, he looked at the center of the banquet hall. Cheng Wei was standing with a group of rich kids, and the person standing in front of them was.. Chen Yuan was shocked. ¡°This, this is not the one in the garden¡­¡± He thought that he had seen wrongly. He rubbed his eyes and looked again. It was that woman! However, her temperament was completely different from when she was in the garden. This woman always had a dull look when she was in the rose garden and it was evident that she was not in her right mind. However, she was calm and composed at this moment, and there seemed to be a sneer hanging on the corner of her mouth. Chen Yuan was shocked. Could it be that she was actually not mentally ill?! He nervously looked at Li Qun, but he found that Li Qun¡¯s expression did not change. He did not look surprised at all. Chen Yuan immediately understood. ¡°President Li, you knew that she was pretending to be crazy?¡± ¡°Tell me when you realize it. It will be too late.¡± Chen Yuan was ashamed. He really did not notice anything unusual about this woman. However, this woman should not be far from death. After all, Li Qun hated lying and betrayal the most. He would never let her off. However, Chen Yuan was a little strange. Since Li Qun had already discovered it, why hadn¡¯t he done anything to this woman? Was he not angry? Chen Yuan did not dare to ask, so he could only continue to stand beside Li Qun and watch the good show downstairs with him. ¡°You came to attend the birthday party, eating and drinking for free, and you don¡¯t even have a gift?¡± A woman stood in front of Cheng Xin arrogantly. Her voice was sharp, and Li Qun and Chen Yuan could hear it clearly. ¡°If you want to leave, that¡¯s fine. Leave the money for your food. Consider it as a birthday gift for Weiwei.¡± Chapter 32 - Jumping Clown Chapter 32 Jumping Clown Cheng Xin¡¯s wrist was tightly gripped by Yu Jing, who had twisted expressions. ¡°Let go!¡± Yu Jing refused to let go and bellowed, ¡°You¡¯re dressed so nobly, yet you can¡¯t even take out money?! If you can¡¯t, then I¡¯ll bet on this skirt of yours!¡± Anyone with discerning eyes could see that Yu Jing was deliberately looking for trouble. However, these people didn¡¯t speak up for Cheng Xin at all. Who would want to offend Cheng Wei? Moreover, everyone liked to watch a show. ¡°What if I don¡¯t?¡± Cheng Xin found it funny and said coldly. Cheng Xin refused, and Yu Jing became even more unwilling to let it go. ¡°Have you no shame? You didn¡¯t get invited to the party, and now you can¡¯t even take out some gifts!¡± The people who were watching the show also started to jeer. ¡°That¡¯s right! Have you no shame?!¡± Just as the commotion was starting to brew, Cheng Wei suddenly exclaimed, ¡°Ah! My earrings are gone!¡± With her screams, everyone looked at her. ¡°This pair of earrings was not easy to find. They have many years of history¡­¡± Cheng Wei tweeted sweetly, looking like she was wronged. Yu Jing looked at Cheng Wei¡¯s earlobes and confirmed that the pair of earrings had gone missing She understood something and pointed at Cheng Xin. ¡°Did you steal Weiwei¡¯s earrings?!¡± A proud look flashed in Cheng Wei¡¯s eyes. Yu Jing was smart. She had thrown the earrings into the crowd when no one was looking. As long as she could stall Cheng Xin, she would take this opportunity to humiliate this b*tch. ¡°I stole the earrings? Heh, if I stole them, where would I hide them?¡± Cheng Xin looked at the ¡°master and servant¡± who were singing along with each other in a teasing manner. ¡°Maybe you hid them in the gown!¡± Yu Jing had Cheng Wei¡¯s support and was showing off. Cheng Xin felt that she was more like a clown. ¡°That¡¯s right! Why aren¡¯t you taking off your earrings?!¡± ¡°Take them off! Take them off!¡± Good heavens, a room full of clowns. Cheng Xin could not help but lament that birds of a feather flock together. Cheng Wei was not a good person, and her friends were definitely not good people. These people who wanted her to take off did not want to verify whether she had stolen anything or wanted her to use the dress as collateral for the gift money. They clearly only wanted to see her make a fool of herself and pry into her body. ¡°President Li¡­¡± Seeing that Cheng Xin was in such a difficult position, Chen Yuan turned to look at Li Qun. Li Qun¡¯s eyes were dark and fixed on Cheng Xin downstairs. Chen Yuan felt a chill on his neck. It was better to shut up and wait and see. ¡°Okay, since you want me to take off my clothes, come and help me take them off.¡± Cheng Xin hooked her finger at Yu Jing. ¡°However, if I can¡¯t find the pair of earrings after I take them off, I will sue you and all of you. I will rattle the media and complain that you rich second-generation heirs forced me to undress! You even demanded gifts.¡± ¡°I wonder, is the money for a dress worth such a fuss?¡± ¡°Besides, why do you think I stole the earrings?¡± ¡­.. When Cheng Xin said that, no one dared to make a sound. Yu Jing¡¯s face alternated between green and white as he looked at Cheng Wei for help. Cheng Wei was already furious. She didn¡¯t expect Cheng Xin to be so difficult to deal with! She had clearly been a pushover before! Thus, her brain spun rapidly, and that was when she suddenly remembered that Cheng Xin had escaped from the slums. Cheng Wei looked at Cheng Xin¡¯s wrist¡ªthere was a yellow silk scarf with floral prints was tied onto it¡ªunder that silk scarf, there had to be an electronic lock! Those who escaped from the slums would have an electronic lock on their wrists. Cheng Wei couldn¡¯t care less about others. Yu Jing was so useless, so she had to do it herself. She strode forward and grabbed Cheng Xin¡¯s hand, trying to untie the scarf on her hand. ¡°Miss Cheng, what are you doing?!¡± Cheng Xin pushed Cheng Wei away with force. Cheng Wei almost lost her balance and fell to the ground. Fortunately, someone held her up. ¡°What? You haven¡¯t even seen a scarf before? Are you trying to snatch it? Or do you think I can hide two pearl earrings under this scarf?¡± As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at Cheng Wei curiously. Cheng Wei had always had a gentle and generous image. Why did she look so crazy just now? Cheng Wei took a deep breath, and after calming herself down, she looked at everyone. ¡°Just now, I received news that the police are arresting a girl who escaped from the slums. Her age and appearance matches that girl.¡± Chapter 33 - The Missing Electronic Lock Chapter 33 The Missing Electronic Lock Everyone¡¯s expressions changed drastically when they heard the word ¡®slum.¡¯ The slumdog was really unlucky-they all took a step back, gawking at Cheng Xin with utter disgust. It was as if she was a freak. ¡°Everyone in the slum has electronic locks on their hands! Weiwei just wanted to see if there was an electronic lock under her scarf, right? !¡± ¡°That¡¯s right! Otherwise, who would tie a scarf on their hands?!¡± Cheng Xin stood where she was. She sneered. ¡°They are all wealthy heirs, yet they don¡¯t know about this fashion? And you, Cheng Wei, one moment you say you don¡¯t know me, the next moment you say I¡¯m a thief, and you say I¡¯m from the slums. How come I didn¡¯t know that I have so many identities?¡±. Cheng Wei gnashed her teeth. She had always been impatient, and at this moment, she was not willing to wait any longer. She rushed up and pulled the scarf off Cheng Xin¡¯s hand. The silk scarf slid off Cheng Xin¡¯s wrist, and a crystal clear jade bracelet fell into her eyes. Cheng Wei turned pale with fright. The scene was also so quiet that it was suffocating ¡°No, impossible! Impossible!¡± Cheng Wei¡¯s brain buzzed as she screamed. She rushed forward and grabbed Cheng Xin¡¯s hand as if possessed. She was in disbelief. ¡°Where¡¯s the electronic lock?! How is it possible¡­ how is it possible that there¡¯s no electronic lock?!¡± Cheng Xin had been sent to the slums. How could she not have an electronic lock on her hand?! an average person would not be able to unlock that lock! The onlookers looked at the crazy Cheng Wei in surprise. They did not understand why she did this. Cheng Xin shook off Cheng Wei¡¯s hand. Then, a clear slap sounded. ¡°You, you dare to hit me?!¡± Amid the uproar, Cheng Wei looked at Cheng Xin in disbelief. Cheng Xin actually dared to hit her?! ¡°What? Do you still need to report when I hit you?¡± Cheng Xin rubbed Cheng Wei¡¯s hand and smiled disdainfully. The crowd still hadn¡¯t recovered from their shock. Who Was Cheng Wei.! was she the daughter of a senator or the dream lover of thousands of men. Yet, this woman of unknown origin was willing to hit her just like that. ¡°Call security! Someone is causing trouble!¡±Cheng Wei shouted hurriedly, her eyes reddened. ¡°Miss, I¡­ I have no enmity with you. Why did you hit me? I¡­ I just wanted to verify your identity¡­¡±. Her acting skills were no worse than those of those movie queens when she acted pitifully. Soon, someone complained about Cheng Wei¡¯s injustice. ¡°That¡¯s right! Why did you hit her?! Do you have a conscience?¡± The banquet hall was in chaos. Li Qun was still standing upstairs watching the show, his gaze never leaving Cheng Xin. He had to admit that the gown he chose for her was gorgeous. Chen Yuan secretly looked down and could not help but sigh that Cheng Xin had really entered a tiger¡¯s den. Any random person from that group of rich kids would be able to rip Cheng Xin Sheng, who had come out of the slums, into shreds. However, this girl had Li Qun¡¯s back. However, why hadn¡¯t Li Qun asked him to save the situation? Chen Yuan had been by Li Qun¡¯s side for many years and had long known that some things should not be said. Despite the doubts in his heart, he still decided to wait for Li Qun¡¯s orders before saying anything. The Banquet Hall was bustling with noise and excitement. Cheng Xin had once again become a thorn in the group¡¯s side. ¡°Let¡¯s Go! i¡¯ll bring you to the police station!¡±A rich man grabbed Cheng Xin¡¯s wrist. As he spoke, his other hand went towards Cheng Xin¡¯s waist. Li Qun, who was watching the show, had a stern look. The veins on his hand that was holding onto the railing were bulging. Cheng Xin was not in a hurry. She broke free from this rich man¡¯s embrace. ¡°I advise you not to touch me. Otherwise, your company will be in danger.¡± At this banquet, Cheng Xin was someone from an unknown background. The rich kid was not afraid at all. He sneered and said, ¡°Who do you think you are? You dare to threaten me?! ¡°Of course, I¡¯m nothing, but none of you can afford to offend me with my background.¡± Cheng Xin made a solemn vow. It did not seem like she was lying at all. Upstairs, Chen Yuan saw the situation and could not help but say, ¡°President Li, I¡¯m afraid that she will use your name to scare people.¡± After he said that, however, Chen Yuan wished he could slap himself twice. He had said too much again. However¡­ when he looked up again, he saw that Li Qun was not angry. Instead, the corner of his mouth had a proud arc. Chen Yuan was full of doubt. What would President Li¡¯s reaction be? Could he be thrilled that this woman relied on him? Chen Yuan was stunned. Chapter 34 - Backed By the Gu Family Chapter 34 Backed By the Gu Family ¡°She really thinks she¡¯s smart. She brought me up. Without evidence, no one would believe her.¡± Li Qun chuckled. It was unknown whether he was talking to himself or Chen Yuan. ¡°Go down and find time to testify for her.¡± Everyone who knew Li Qun knew his assistant, Chen Yuan. If he didn¡¯t help her, Cheng Xin wouldn¡¯t be able to leave tonight. ¡°Yes.¡± No matter how confused Chen Yuan was, he would do as Li Qun said. Just as he was about to go downstairs, a sharp female voice came from downstairs. ¡°Your background? What background do you have?!¡± ¡°The Lakeside Hotel is the business of the Gu family. This family has always been mysterious, but it also happens that the Gu family is my background.¡± Cheng Xin was calm and composed. Chen Yuan was surprised and stopped in his tracks. He couldn¡¯t help but look at Li Qun. At this moment, Li Qun¡¯s smile had already frozen at the corner of his mouth. The surrounding air had become cold and unpredictable. Everyone in the banquet hall was stunned. Cheng Wei felt that Cheng Xin must have gone crazy. She and the Gu family had nothing in common. ¡°Okay, you said that the Gu family is behind you. Then let¡¯s invite the manager to come over and see if he knows you!!¡± Cheng Wei didn¡¯t stand on ceremony when she saw Cheng Xin deliver herself to her door. ¡°The manager¡¯s rank is not high enough. We should get the current family head of the Gu family.¡± Cheng Xin was not afraid. Chen Yuan watched from upstairs and was completely confused. The family head of the Gu family rarely showed up. Even Li Qun did not spend much time with the Gu family. What was the background of this woman? ¡°President Li, is she lying?¡±Chen Yuan could not help but ask. Li Qun snorted, ¡°She did it herself. It¡¯s none of my business.¡± After saying that, Li Qun stopped watching and turned to the private room. The difference in attitude was too significant. Could President Li be angry that this miss in the garden didn¡¯t take him as a backer and would rather lie? Chen Yuan didn¡¯t understand Li Qun¡¯s attitude toward this miss, so he could only follow her back. ¡°Why are you following me?¡± Li Qun suddenly stopped and stared coldly at Chen Yuan. ¡°Continue to keep an eye on her. If anything happens to her, don¡¯t appear in front of me again.¡± After saying that, Li Qun left directly, leaving Chen Yuan alone in a daze. What was going on? Did president Li love that person or hate that person? Forget it. It was better to keep an eye on him. The excellent show was still going on in the banquet hall. Chen Yuan blended into the crowd to observe the situation. Soon, a group of security guards came in from the door. Then, a middle-aged man in a suit and tie followed them in, looking rather awe-inspiring Chen Yuan recognized this man. Li Qun had discussed business with him before. He should be president Wang, the most influential person in the Lakeside Hotel. ¡°I heard that someone is using the name of the Gu family to show off. Who is it?¡± President Wang walked to the center of the farce and looked around. Cheng Wei smiled and walked to President Huang¡¯s side. Glancing at Cheng Xin, she said, ¡°President Wang, this young lady said that she has the backing of the Gu family. No one can touch her.¡± President Wang glanced at Cheng Xin and said disdainfully, ¡°What a joke! The Gu family has been in the capital for a long time and rarely interacts with sea city people. Moreover, the Gu family has no relatives here. Where did she get her connections?¡± ¡°To tell you the truth, Director Wang, I¡¯m Gu Ao¡¯s savior.¡± Cheng Xin said slowly. Gu Ao was the patriarch of the Gu family. After director Wang heard this, he laughed directly, ¡°You¡¯re Mr. Gu¡¯s savior?! I think you¡¯re a liar. Guards! Arrest her and take her away!¡± A few security guards surrounded Cheng Xin, making her look even smaller. Chen Yuan clenched his fists and was about to step forward. However, he saw Cheng Xin calmly push Cheng Wei¡¯s portrait card to the ground, blocking her and the security guards. She let out a muffled sound. ¡°Ah!!!¡± Cheng Wei cried out in surprise. Cheng Xin didn¡¯t care. She stepped hard on Cheng Wei¡¯s face on the card. Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Cheng Wei was so angry that his brain buzzed. He wanted to go up and beat Cheng Xin. Chapter 35 - Its Really You Chapter 35 It¡¯s Really You Cheng Xin was clearly humiliating her! But she had set up her own persona, so she had to endure it. Anyway, someone would deal with Cheng Xin soon. ¡°President Wang, don¡¯t be anxious. You can call gu ao to confirm it before arresting me. You know how Gu Ao will treat you if I¡¯m telling the truth.¡± Cheng Xin was delighted. She looked at CEO Wang with a smile that was not a smile. ¡°What right do you have¡­¡± CEO Wang was about to curse when he suddenly realized something was wrong. The Gu family was mysterious. In the capital, almost no one knew who the current patriarch of the family was. But the girl in front of him said Gu Ao¡¯s name at once. Confidently. He didn¡¯t even react to it just now. CEO Wang realized that he had almost made a big mistake and couldn¡¯t help but look at Cheng Xin, still calm. After thinking for a moment, CEO Wang picked up his phone and dialed a number. Everyone¡¯s eyes focused on CEO Wang, watching his expression change from respect to shock and nervousness. Cheng Xin calmly played with the bracelet on her wrist, waiting for the result. ¡°Miss¡­ Mr. Gu has invited you to video call.¡± After a long while, director Wang looked at Cheng Xin with disbelief written all over his face. After a long time, he stiffly walked up to her respectfully. The whole hall was in an uproar. Cheng Wei was so shocked that her mind went blank, and her face turned pale. ¡°Okay, but no one is allowed to leave this birthday party.¡± Cheng Xin scanned the surroundings and finally fixed her gaze on the stunned Cheng Wei. Director Wang dared not disobey and immediately sent security guards to surround the entire banquet hall. What was going on? Everyone looked at each other. Many who had ridiculed Cheng Xin earlier were now trembling. Cheng Wei was confused. Director Wang¡¯s change in attitude was too noticeable. Could Cheng Xin be really related to the Gu Family? How was this possible?! She was a b*tch that ran away from the slums!!! How could she be related to the Gu Family?! CEO Wang had already brought Cheng Xin to the dressing room that belonged to Cheng Wei. A projector was set up. He helped connect the video and then left the dressing room, leaving Cheng Xin alone. The projection on the wall slowly lit up. A handsome man in his thirties was sitting in the luxurious study. When he saw Cheng Xin, he smiled brightly. ¡°Cheng Xin, I knew it was you.¡± It was like a good friend he had not seen for a long time. Last year, to fight for the family property, Gu Ao was set up by his uncle and fell into the sea. It was Cheng Xin who saved him. It was also Cheng Xin who took good care of Gu Ao in that hell in the slums. Otherwise, Gu Ao, who lived in luxury since he was young, might have died there long ago. He was either starved to death or beaten to death. Later, it was still Cheng Xin who managed to assemble a satellite phone. Only then did gu ao tend to contact his trusted aides and leave the slums. He toppled his uncle and became the current head of the Gu family. Gu Ao had never forgotten Cheng Xin¡¯s kindness to him. After Cheng Xin glanced at Gu ao, she casually played with the dazzling array of cosmetics on the table. She casually broke several lipsticks and threw them on the ground. ¡°It was me,¡± she said. ¡°You didn¡¯t expect me to leave the slums.¡± Gu Ao felt a little uncomfortable. He stood up and bowed respectfully to Cheng Xin. ¡°I promised you that I would take you out of the slums in order to repay you, but¡­¡± The Gu family had always been in the north, and the slums were under the jurisdiction of the south. Moreover, the Gu family was like a lone ranger, and they followed the rules. They could only secretly use help to escape, but they failed. Cheng Xin did not care about these things. She looked up at gu ao and said, ¡°It¡¯s okay. You Don¡¯t have to blame yourself.¡± Gu Ao looked at Cheng Xin. He was already used to her appearance. Just like the Gu family¡¯s style, she was a lone wolf, relying only on herself. What surprised him was that Cheng Xin now looked delicate, and she was dressed in high-quality clothes. She seemed to be living well. Gu Ao couldn¡¯t help but ask curiously, ¡°How did you escape? Didn¡¯t the people in the slums keep you?¡± In the slums, Cheng Xin was the boss. With her around, the slums wouldn¡¯t be too messy. Now that she had left, Gu Ao didn¡¯t know what the slums would be like. People must have been devastated, dead or crazy. ¡°They couldn¡¯t keep me. I was taken away by someone.¡± Chapter 36 - Inhumane Chapter 36 Inhumane Gu Ao was stunned. He saw Cheng Xin continue, ¡°Li Qun brought me out of the slums.¡± Li Qun?! Gu Ao¡¯s expression changed drastically. In the entire H Nation, everyone knew of Li Qun¡¯s power. ¡°Why is it him?! But¡­ in H Nation, the only one who can bring people out of the slums is him.¡± Gu Ao mumbled, but he was a little worried about Cheng Xin. How did Cheng Xin get involved with the ancestor, Li Qun? ¡°Don¡¯t worry. He only used me as a substitute and didn¡¯t do anything to me.¡± Seeing Gu Ao¡¯s worry, Cheng Xin comforted him. She said casually while sweeping the things that belonged to Cheng Wei on the dressing table onto the ground. ¡°How much do you¡­ know about Li Qun?¡± Cheng Xin suddenly raised her eyes and stared at Gu Ao on the screen. With the ability of the Gu family, it was not difficult for them to get some information. ¡°Ruthless, inhumane.¡± Gu Ao was impolite about Li Qun¡¯s evaluation. ¡°His father was also a ruthless character in the past, but he was chased off the stage by Li Qun. Even a tiger would not eat its own son, but here, Li Qun ate his father.¡± The matter of the Li family in the past had also caused a stir. Because of this matter, Li Qun ruthlessly put down those who once had a grudge against him. From then on, no one dared to provoke Li Qun. ¡°However, I heard that the Li family has a hereditary disease. As for what it is, I¡¯m not too sure.¡± Gu Ao told Cheng Xin all the information he knew. Cheng Xin was deep in thought. A hereditary disease? Could it be related to the death of Li Qun¡¯s mother and sister? Forget it. It seemed that she couldn¡¯t find anything out from Gu Ao¡¯s side. If she wanted to escape from Li Qun, she could only rely on herself. ¡°Chengxin, Li Qun hasn¡¯t done anything to you at the moment, but it doesn¡¯t mean that he will treat you well in the future.¡± Gu Ao was still worried. ¡°If you need my help, you can contact me at any time. If you escape from him, come to me, and I will protect you.¡± Gu Ao¡¯s friendship touched Chengxin. However, she could not leave yet. ¡°I appreciate your kindness. Now, I still need to take revenge. I will not leave sea city.¡± At the mention of revenge, a ruthless light flashed in Cheng Xin¡¯s eyes. ¡°I came to you today to ask you to return the favor of saving my life. As for the rest, I will settle it myself.¡± Cheng Xin was straightforward. Gu Ao liked her personality. Since she understood, Gu Ao agreed immediately, ¡°Of course.¡± At this moment, everyone in the banquet hall was anxious. The most nervous one was Yu Jing. After all, she was the first one to pick a fight. Even now, Cheng Wei still couldn¡¯t believe that Cheng Xin was the savior of the Gu family! She had stayed in the slums for three years. How could she have anything to do with the Gu family! There must be some mistake! Amidst the noise, Cheng Xin arrived leisurely. Everyone looked in the direction she had come from and saw that she was like a lotus out of water. If Cheng Wei had not revealed her identity just now, who would have thought she came from the slums? Director Wang, who had been arrogant towards Cheng Xin just now, was now following Cheng Xin like a lackey. The truth was self-evident. Cheng Xin¡¯s expression did not change. She walked to the dreamy swing and sat down on Cheng Wei was furious when she saw that she had taken her seat. ¡°Why are you sitting in my seat?!¡± ¡°Your seat?¡±Cheng Xin looked at the swing suspiciously. ¡°Your name isn¡¯t written on it either?¡± ¡°Besides, even if it¡¯s yours, what if you do it? Will you die?¡± ¡°You!¡± Cheng Wei was speechless. Cheng Xin swung the swing and looked down at Cheng Wei, experiencing how Cheng Wei looked at her in the past. If there weren¡¯t so many people, she would have stepped on Cheng Wei¡¯s face. Just like Cheng Wei in the past. ¡°CEO Wang! Don¡¯t be fooled by this woman! She is not the savior of the Gu family!¡± Cheng Wei grabbed CEO Wang and shouted at him. CEO Wang was not that stupid. Cheng Xin had already spoken to Gu ao on the phone. He would never dare to offend the owner of the swing. He pulled his hand back and said coldly, ¡°Men, catch this crazy woman. Don¡¯t let her cause trouble!¡± ¡°How dare you conspire with a liar to touch me?! Do you know that I¡¯m the daughter of a Senator?!¡± Cheng Wei saw this and used Cheng Kun as a shield. Chapter 37 - Disciplining You On Your Fathers Behalf Chapter 37 Disciplining You On Your Father¡¯s Behalf ¡°I naturally know that you are councilman Cheng¡¯s daughter. However, when Councilman Cheng sees the Gu family, he has to curry favor with them.¡± A mountain was higher than a mountain. Director Wang sneered and did not care at all. In no time at all, Cheng Wei was immediately escorted by a group of bodyguards. She was in an extremely sorry state. When the others saw this, no one dared to speak up for her. They could only stand aside and watch the show silently. At this critical moment, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door. Looking Up, they saw Cheng Kun, who was wearing a suit, striding toward the banquet hall with his people. The guests all made way for him. When Cheng Kun looked closely, he almost staggered in fright. The swing that belonged to his precious daughter, Cheng Wei, was sitting on the luxuriously dressed Cheng Xin. She didn¡¯t die! She actually survived in the slums?! Cheng Xin naturally noticed the complicated emotions in her eyes. She looked Cheng Kun in the eye and smiled. This smile was provocative and flirtatious. It was as if she was here to claim her life. ¡°Daddy! Daddy, Save me!¡± Cheng Wei cried when she saw her savior coming. She no longer cared about her noble image. ¡°What is Chief Wang doing? Did my daughter do something wrong?¡± Cheng Kun frowned and asked, ¡°I wonder if you can let my daughter go?¡± President Wang said with a cold face, ¡°She didn¡¯t mess with me. She messed with the savior of the Master of the Gu family, the young lady on the swing.¡± ¡°Savior?¡± Seeing president Wang¡¯s determined look, Cheng Kun was surprised. Since when did Cheng Xin become the savior of the Master of the Gu Family ?! He looked at Cheng Xin¡¯s wrist again and saw that there was only an excellent jade bracelet on her wrist. Where was the electronic lock?! Three years ago, he had seen Cheng Xin put on the electronic lock with his own eyes! Could the person in front of him be not Cheng Xin? But they did look exactly the same¡­ except that they had different temperaments. Whether it was true or not, Cheng Kun did not want to offend the GU family. A word from the Gu family could make him lose his seat as a Member of Parliament. He still had great ambitions, and he could not ruin his future just like that. ¡°Miss, May I know your name?¡± Cheng Kun¡¯s attitude toward Cheng Xin changed drastically as he asked politely. Cheng Wei, who was standing at the side, widened her eyes in disbelief. ¡°My surname is long.¡± Cheng Kun was slightly startled and hurriedly said, ¡°Miss Long, it¡¯s my fault for not teaching her well. Please let my daughter off. Today is her birthday, so let her have a good birthday.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll let her apologize to you.¡± Cheng Kun really knew how to change his face. One second, he was still attentive to Cheng Xin, and the next second, he glared at Cheng Wei and scolded, ¡°Why aren¡¯t you apologizing to miss long?!¡± ¡°Dad? Are you poisoned?! Why should I apologize to this b*tch?!¡± Let her apologize? Cheng Xin had always been the only one who apologized to her! Slap!!! A loud slap could be heard. The crowd was in an uproar. Cheng Xin had gotten off the swing lazily and stood in front of Cheng Wei, giving her a tight slap. ¡°Since your father has no discipline, I¡¯ll discipline him properly on his behalf.¡± Cheng Xin lowered her body and curled the corners of her lips, staring at Cheng Wei¡¯s angry eyes. ¡°Especially with that foul mouth of yours. I don¡¯t know how Councilman Cheng manages it. She¡¯s clearly a young lady from a wealthy family, but why does she look like a shrew?¡± Cheng Xin rubbed her hands and glanced at Cheng Wei with disdain. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you apologizing to Miss Long?! Are you trying to embarrass the Cheng family?!¡± Cheng Wei looked at Cheng Kun for help, but she didn¡¯t expect Cheng Kun to glare at her angrily. Now, the savior she thought had turned to Cheng Xin. Cheng Wei¡¯s eyes were red-rimmed, but she also knew that Cheng Kun was serious. She could only reluctantly look in Cheng Xin¡¯s direction, and without sincerity, said, ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± ¡°Just because you¡¯re sorry, that¡¯s it?¡± Cheng Xin sat back on the swing and played with the jade bracelet on her wrist without even lifting her head, ¡°Cheng Wei, I¡¯m not that easy to talk to. ¡°You personally invited me to your birthday party, but in the end, you acted like you didn¡¯t know me. You even accused me of escaping from the slums and coming here to eat, drink, and steal. ¡°I was so close to being stripped by you and your friends. ¡°If you don¡¯t kneel and apologize, how can I calm down?¡± Chapter 38 - Kneel and Apologize Chapter 38 Kneel and Apologize As soon as she said that, Cheng Kun and his daughter¡¯s faces changed. Kneel down? When had Cheng Wei ever suffered such grievance? Moreover, the person she knelt down and apologized to was Cheng Xin, whom she usually looked down on the most! ¡°Don¡¯t even think about it!¡±Cheng Wei glared fiercely at Cheng Xin, her gaze as if she was going to skin her alive. Cheng Kun also felt that kneeling down was a little too much. This was not only a great humiliation to Cheng Wei, but also to the Cheng family. He smiled apologetically and said, ¡°Miss Long, Cheng Wei has already apologized. You Don¡¯t have to be so aggressive, right?¡± ¡°Councilman Cheng, it¡¯s a father¡¯s fault for not teaching his son. Why don¡¯t you kneel for her? If none of you are willing to kneel, then I¡¯ll have to ask Gu Ao to come forward and let him discipline the Cheng family properly.¡± Cheng Xin had long known Cheng Kun¡¯s character. He was a person who was afraid of the strong and weak. As expected, when it came to asking gu ao to come forward, Cheng Kun immediately turned his eyes to glare at Cheng Wei and almost pressed her to kneel. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you kneeling?! I Can¡¯t help you anymore. You¡¯re the one who caused this!¡± ¡°Dad?!¡± Cheng Wei couldn¡¯t believe it. Her father, who had always regarded her as the apple of his eye, actually asked her to kneel in front of this B * Tch?! Cheng Xin gave director Wang a leisurely look. Before Cheng Wei could react, the bodyguards, under director Wang¡¯s signal, pressed Cheng Wei to come in front of Cheng Xin, forcing her to bend her knees and kneel in front of Cheng Wei. Cheng Xin looked at Cheng Wei¡¯s pathetic state with a smile and felt very unhappy. Cheng Wei¡¯s scoundrels, including Cheng Kun, all sucked in a breath of cold air, but no one came out to help Cheng Wei. They were really scoundrels. Cheng Xin raised her foot, and the tip of her high-heeled shoes hooked Cheng Wei¡¯s chin. Cheng Wei, who was being pressed down, could not resist at all, and could only let Cheng Xin humiliate her. ¡°Why aren¡¯t you apologizing? Miss Cheng?¡± Cheng Xin¡¯s flirtatious smile shocked Cheng Wei. This scene seemed familiar. On a certain day a few years ago, she sat on the swing like this and humiliated Cheng Xin, who was kneeling on the ground. She must be Cheng Xin! She came back for revenge! ¡°Hiss ¡ª why are you so stubborn?¡±Cheng Xin saw that Cheng Wei did not speak for a long time and was a little annoyed. ¡°In that case, don¡¯t celebrate your birthday.¡± ¡°Director Wang, Smash It!¡± Cheng Xin said to director Wang in a bad mood. Cheng Wei¡¯s face changed greatly. She turned her eyes and saw that director Wang¡¯s subordinates had already started to smash the banquet hall. This was the birthday banquet hall that she had meticulously arranged! Cheng Wei was a person who cared about her face. She paid special attention to this kind of ceremonial feeling. Seeing that her birthday banquet had become like this, she finally couldn¡¯t sit still, she cried and begged, ¡°Miss Long, I was wrong. I shouldn¡¯t have treated you like this. Please be magnanimous and forgive me!¡± Thinking that there were so many outsiders at the scene, Cheng Wei wished she could find a hole to hide in. If this matter was spread out, how would others look at her?! ¡°Ah, right, Miss Cheng hasn¡¯t eaten the cake yet, right? Come, let¡¯s eat together.¡± Cheng Xin ignored Cheng Wei¡¯s apology ¡ª if an apology was useful, why did she need the police? She was going to teach Cheng Wei a lesson today! Cheng Wei shook her head desperately and said ¡°No¡±. However, she watched Cheng Xin pick up a piece of cake and taste the cream with great interest. Then, the whole piece of cream cake fell on Cheng Wei¡¯s face unexpectedly. Cheng Wei, who was wearing delicate makeup, suddenly turned into a colorful cat. ¡°Miss, Miss Long, I will definitely discipline her from now on. Today, please¡­¡± ¡°Why aren¡¯t you eating?!¡± Cheng Xin interrupted Cheng Kun and scolded Cheng Wei angrily. The cream cake had fallen off Cheng Wei¡¯s face and hit the ground, creating a white flower. Asking her to eat the cake, wasn¡¯t it asking her to lick the garbage on the ground like a dog?! ¡°If you don¡¯t eat it, do you know what kind of retribution the Cheng family will suffer? When that time comes, it won¡¯t be as simple as the ghost boundaries reported in the newspapers. The curses on the ghost boundaries will be returned to you¡­¡± The pot was boiling. Cheng Kun and Cheng Wei were not annoyed to death by the ghost boundaries incident. Now that Cheng Xin had mentioned that incident again, Cheng Wei¡¯s expression was really ugly. ¡°Long, Miss Long, I really know my mistake. Please let me go¡­ I¡¯ve already knelt down to apologize to you¡­¡± Cheng Wei¡¯s tears fell, and her entire body trembled. She had lost all her face. Chapter 39 - She Lost Chapter 39 She Lost ¡°You can¡¯t take it anymore?¡± Cheng Xin chuckled. ¡°So you know what it¡¯s like to be humiliated.¡± ¡°Cheng Wei, you asked for it today. I just came to your birthday party because of your invitation. It was you who teased me with your friends.¡± Cheng Xin smiled and walked to Cheng Wei¡¯s side. She grabbed her hair and placed it beside her ear. She said in a voice that only she could hear, ¡°Cheng Wei, I will return everything you did in the past to you.¡± ¡°What, what do you mean?! Cheng Xin! I knew it was you!¡± Cheng Wei looked as if she had seen a ghost and suddenly began to scream crazily. ¡°Cheng Xin? Who¡¯s Cheng Xin?¡± Cheng Xin straightened her body in confusion and looked at the onlookers as she asked. As soon as she finished speaking, Cheng Kun raised his leg and kicked Cheng Wei fiercely. Idiot! Cheng Xin had always been an existence that could not be seen in the Cheng family. How could she tell so many rich children about Cheng Xin?! Wasn¡¯t this pushing the Cheng family into the fire pit? The bodyguards that were holding Cheng Wei dispersed. Cheng Wei was kicked to the ground and was in a mess. When she looked up, she saw Cheng Kun¡¯s furious gaze. She had lost. She had lost completely. She had never thought that she would have such an embarrassing day. The entire venue had been smashed into a mess. Cheng Wei¡¯s hair and face were covered with cake. She looked like a lunatic from the slums. Cheng Xin was particularly satisfied with all of this. ¡°I¡¯m tired too, so I¡¯ll go back first. But Councilman Cheng, you¡¯d better discipline your precious daughter. Look, how many people have seen the joke today?¡± Cheng Xin clapped her hands in disgust and sneered, ¡°If the whole country sees it, Councilman Cheng, can you still have a future?¡± After saying that, she left without looking back. She came and left brightly and beautifully. The rich children watching the show gave way to her one after another. The moment she pushed open the banquet hall door, the wind blew her beautiful long hair and her pink skirt. She was pretty, but she was freezing. Cheng Xin turned around and looked at the highly miserable Cheng Wei and the ashen-faced Cheng Kun beside her. She chuckled and left a beautiful figure behind. ¡°Dad! That¡¯s Cheng Xin! If she comes back, I¡¯ll be finished¡­¡± Cheng Wei was in a daze. She got up from the ground and stumbled as she pulled Cheng Kun¡¯s sleeve. Cheng Kun¡¯s eyes darkened. He carried Cheng Wei horizontally and walked out. ¡°Dad, she humiliated me like this. Are you willing to let her go just like that?¡± Cheng Wei was not willing. She was actually humiliated like this by this b*tch Cheng Xin!! What did she take her for?! Cheng Kun thought and said to the bodyguard beside him, ¡°Go follow Miss Long.¡± ¡°Yes.¡± The bodyguard left in a hurry. The farce ended, and the crowd dispersed. Chen Yuan slowly walked out of the crowd. It was exhilarating just now. Chen Yuan was dumbfounded the entire time. He had seen many of this person from the rose garden, but only today did he discover her true colors. Fortunately, he had taken many photos and videos so that President Li could see this woman¡¯s unusual side. In the suite upstairs, the air was filled with the smell of blood. Li Qun had already found the person who wanted to kill him. The man was lying on the ground, his white shirt stained red with blood. He was on the verge of death. The others were so scared that their faces were pale. Looking at the delicious food on the table, their stomachs churned. Li Qun sat in the main seat and swiped his phone screen with great interest, watching the excellent show that Chen Yuan recorded for him. How interesting This little thing was more capable than he thought. He suddenly stood up and strode out, saying, ¡°Find out the relationship between her and Gu Ao for me. Also, send me all these photos and videos. You Can¡¯t keep any of them.¡± ¡°Alright.¡± Chen Yuan followed Li Qun, silently complaining about Li Qun¡¯s intense possessiveness. On a cold night, Cheng Xin did not wear a coat. She was walking on the street in a formal dress, so cold that she hugged herself tightly. With her sharp senses, she quickly noticed someone following her. She did not need to think much that it was definitely Cheng Kun¡¯s people. Cheng Kun seemed to believe her words, but only for Gu Ao¡¯s sake. In fact, he still suspected her identity. Chapter 40 - Im Your Man Chapter 40 I¡¯m Your Man Cheng Xin had lived in the slums for so long. Without some ability, she could not survive. She quickened her pace and quickly darted into an alley. Clack clack clack The sound of hurried footsteps could be heard. ¡°Where is she?¡± ¡°She clearly ran into this alley just now!¡± ¡­. ¡°Ahh¡° After a few muttering sounds, screams rang through the night sky, but it returned to calm. Cheng Xin jumped down from the wall and quickly knocked a few bodyguards to the ground. She gave them a few more punches, clapped her hands, and walked out of the alley disdainfully. Could she still be Cheng Kun¡¯s bodyguard with this kind of ability? She was really as useless as Cheng Kun himself. Cheng Xin was a little tired after causing a ruckus in the banquet hall, mainly because of her rumbling stomach. She regretted not having eaten more in the banquet hall. Cheng Xin didn¡¯t want to go back to the rose garden. She turned around and walked into a convenience store, wanting to buy some delicious food to fill her stomach. The pier on the West Bank of Qingcheng Lake was empty. On the south bank stood the proud Lakeside Hotel-Cheng Xin had just celebrated Cheng Wei¡¯s birthday there. On the other hand, the east bank was the most prosperous place in Sea City. It was still brightly lit, forming a sharp contrast with the west bank, almost completely pitch black. Cheng Xin suddenly felt that people were just like the scenery on the shore? Cheng Wei was the south coast, the east coast, and she represented the west coast. A trace of loneliness flashed across Cheng Xin¡¯s eyes, and she was no longer as arrogant as before. She took out a can of beer from a plastic bag and a small cake. Today was Cheng Wei¡¯s birthday, and it was also hers. When the Cheng family found her, they discovered that she had her birth date, which was exactly the same as Cheng Wei¡¯s. Even the time. It was thanks to that that she became Cheng Wei¡¯s shield. When they were in the Cheng family, Cheng Wei¡¯s birthday was a big day for the Cheng family every year. They would hold birthday parties at home or in hotels, and Cheng Xin would be locked in her room, not even getting a piece of cake. However, today, she finally got her revenge. She ruthlessly let Cheng Wei have an unforgettable birthday. However, the few bites of cake she ate were Cheng Wei¡¯s. Cheng Xin gulped down the beer, and for some reason, the tip of her nose felt a little sour. ¡°Cheng Xin! Happy 21st birthday! You¡¯ll definitely have a bright future! If you have a family, may you all be prosperous!¡± Chengxin raised her beer and shouted to the lake under the moonlight. After shouting, Chengxin found it funny. She opened the small cake, held it in her hand, and began to sing the happy birthday song in a low voice. ¡°Happy Birthday to you¡­ Happy birthday to you¡­¡± For some reason, the more she sang, the more desolate she felt. At the song¡¯s end, Cheng Xin was still a little choked up. She thought it was too cool to humiliate Cheng Wei today, and she was also very excited. Cheng Xin randomly ate the small cream cake and drank another beer. It was dark all around, and only the sound of the waves of Qingcheng Lake could be heard, like a gentle lullaby. Cheng Xin opened another can of beer and drank it with a gulp. Before she was sent to the slums at the age of eighteen, Cheng Xin had been a good girl and had never touched a drop of alcohol. Three years in the slums, however, and what emerged from the ashes was a phoenix. All of this was just the beginning of her revenge. Although the alcohol level was low, drinking too much would still cause dizziness. Cheng Xin had drunk too quickly and was already a little dizzy. In order to sober herself up, Cheng Xin stood up from the bench and walked to the lakeside. The night breeze by the lakeside was chilly, and it was precisely because of this coldness that she was able to clear her head. The colorful lights on the east bank reflected in the distant lake like a gorgeous painting of a demon, baring its fangs and brandishing its claws, attracting people to fall into it. That was a place that Cheng Xin had never been to before. Just as Cheng Xin woke up, a shadow gradually approached her, and then a strong force came from behind her. Splash The ink-like water stirred up waves. Cheng Xin was born a hydrophobic. She fell into the water and struggled desperately as she tried to call for help. However, the water mercilessly poured into her mouth and nose. She struggled desperately, but it was all in vain. The water was like a big hand, strangling her throat and covering her mouth and nose. Soon, the suffocation spread throughout her body. She could no longer struggle, and her consciousness became increasingly blurry. Was she going to die like this?!
