Chapter 1: Who Was the Murderer

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


-
At 3 AM, Su Qianci went to the Li household hurriedly and said, “I want to see him.”

“I’m sorry, the young master said that Su Qianci and dogs are not allowed inside.”

Feeling an earthquake in her heart, Su Qianci felt as if something was dying inside her. She cried at the top of her lungs, “Li Sicheng, come out and let’s talk! The death of grandpa has nothing to do with me. I passed out, and grandpa was gone when I woke up!”

The guards stared at her scarred face coldly without a word.

“Forget it,” a soft voice said. A woman about twenty-seven years old was standing inside the iron gate. She was tall and slender. “He will not see you. Grandpa has just passed away. He needs peace.”

It was her, the public mistress of Li Sicheng, whom Su Qianci thought to be her best friend, Tang Mengying.

For five years, Tang Mengying had been the woman holding Li Sicheng’s arm everywhere they went. In the eyes of the media and outsiders, Tang Mengying had become the actual Mrs. Li. On the other hand, Su Qianci was no more than a decoration.

Tang Mengying walked down the stairs slowly, step by step. The guards respectfully opened the gate for her at her arrival. The treatment of the two women was so different that Su Qianci hated Tang Mengying’s guts even more.

“The two of you, go do something else. I want to speak to her alone.”

The two guards looked at each other, nodded, and left.

“I did not kill grandpa!” Su Qianci said.

“I know. Of course you did not kill him.” Tang Mengying smiled and walked outside of the gate. Soon, she came over to the pond that sat opposite the Li household.

There was a street in front of the house. On the other side of the street was the pond. Without any lighting over there, it was hard to tell where exactly Tang Mengying was standing.

Hearing her words, Su Qianci felt like something was off. She followed Tang Mengying hurriedly and asked, “What do you mean?”

“Of course you did not kill grandpa. You were knocked out by me, so how could you possibly have done that?”

Su Qianci stared her eyes wide at Tang Mengying, “So… It’s you!”

“Hush…” Tang Mengying put her finger to her lips, smiling contently.

“It really was you! You bitch. Grandpa was so good to you. Why did you…?”

“Good?” Tang Mengying interrupted, chuckling. “If it were not for that old guy, the wife of brother Sicheng would have been me instead of you. The old guy knew me since I was a little girl. He never liked me. He should have died a long time ago!”

“You are so treacherous. I will go tell them!”

Tang Mengying didn’t fret at all as Su Qianci was about to turn away. She smiled coldly and said, “You think they will believe you?”

Su Qianci paused and stayed where she was.

“It was the same when you tried to explain that you did not drug brother Sicheng. No one believed you.”

Su Qianci quickly turned around, looking at Tang Mengying incredulously.

Tang Mengying utterly enjoyed the look on her face and said, “And it was the same when you said you did not set the fire. No one believed you.”

“What do you mean, Tang Mengying!” Realization suddenly flashed in Su Qianci’s mind. “It was you!”

“That’s right. It was me,” Tang Mengying snorted. “But so what? Do you remember when you left my home? I almost died of stove leaks. You said you did not do anything. But who believed you? And later, when Sicheng was kidnapped by a cult and almost burned at an abandoned warehouse. Everyone saw that I saved him, but you were the one who was found at the site unconscious. You said you did not set the fire, but who believed you?”

Hearing what had happened in the past, Su Qianci unconsciously reached for her own face.

She pushed Li Sicheng out of the fire with all she had, but she did not run out in time herself. The fire ruined half of her face and her entire life!

She was the unlawful daughter of the Su household.

When she returned to her family at eighteen years old, she knew that the man she would marry was named Li Sicheng. However, she had no idea that he had a childhood sweetheart whose name was Tang Mengying.

After she married him at twenty years old, she was constantly compared to Tang Mengying.

Tang Mengying was a dignified and generous woman. Su Qianci was rude.

Tang Mengying was kind and beautiful. Su Qianci was treacherous.

Tang Mengying studied abroad and returned to China. Su Qianci did not even graduate from college before she was married to Li Sicheng.

She also foolishly treated by Tang Mengying as a good friend, from eighteen to twenty-five years old. However, she had no idea at the time that everything she had was destroyed by Tang Mengying.

Everyone knew that Su Qianci drugged her husband on the night of their wedding in order to provoke Tang Mengying. She also set the fire that almost killed Tang Mengying. She deliberately fell from the stairs to lose her baby in order to set Tang Mengying up.

Her stereotypical image made everyone blind to what she had done to be the match of Li Sicheng.

When she stayed up late to revise Li Sicheng’s proposal and became sick, they said she was hypocritical.

When she tried to cure Li Sicheng’s stomach ache and learned how to cook, they said she was calculative.

When she tried to make his grandpa’s wish of having a great-grandson come true and nourished the fetus at home, they said she was lazy.

After the Su family went bankrupt, they said she was a social climber and a bitch.

After she had a miscarriage, they said that she did too much evil and was unworthy of getting pregnant. Even her child was taken away by heaven.

Later, she gradually understood that Tang Mengying was always right. And that she was always wrong.

That is, until yesterday, when she woke up and found grandpa dead on the stairs of the first floor. When she was standing on the second floor and looking down, the police broke in, and she was naturally considered the murderer.

“You bitch, bitch! Why did you set me up like this!” Su Qianci threw herself at Tang Mengying like crazy.

Tang Mengying had learned martial arts. She dodged and held Su Qianci down, pushing her toward the pond.

Choking on water, Su Qianci started to desperately struggle. “Save…”

Bubbles rose.

Tang Mengying looked at her coldly from on the shore. “You go in peace. I will replace you and become Mrs. Li.”

Chapter 2: Sleeping with A Woman as Ugly as I Am


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



Su Qianci felt like she had become a boat, rising up and down on the violent waves. Very soon, she hit a giant iceberg, or rather, a volcano.

Hot, incredibly hot!

However, as hot as it was, she couldn’t help but move closer to the volcano. She was thrown up in the air and then penetrated in her sex fiercely. Something was broken. She whimpered, “It hurts…”

A volcano could not be stopped during its eruption. She felt her entire body was torn apart and split in half. Su Qianci almost sobbed under the mighty strength of the volcano, “Hurts…”

The volcano showed her no sympathy. With a hard thrust, Su Qianci felt a kiss falling on her lips. With a steady rhythm, she soon felt the pain disappearing. A great pleasure was sent down her spine and she started to moan…

It became calm again after what had happened.

The consciousness of Su Qianci returned to her little by little, and she clearly felt the pain in her body.

She was sore and hurting all over.

Her eyelashes fluttered, and she suddenly opened her eyes.

Dedicate ancient wood carving artifacts were hanging on the ceiling in a stylish way.

This was… The old house of the Lis.

Su Qianci suddenly sat up, but she felt so sore that she couldn’t help but yelp.

To her surprise,Su Qianci felt she was naked. Blue marks were laid all over her chest and collarbone, looking rather scary.

She found there was someone else lying next to her!

Su Qianci let out a cry and tried to hide herself underneath the blanket to the side.

The man in front of her eyes was extremely handsome. His thick eyebrows knitted slightly as he quickly opened his eyes.

As he opened his eyes, Su Qianci felt mesmerized.

She would never tire of this face, no matter how many times she had seen it.

His eyes were deep and dark like the starry night, with innate arrogance and elegance. With some drowsiness, they suddenly became sharp the moment he saw Su Qianci.

At this moment, Li Sicheng looked like he was just… twenty-five or twenty-six years old!

Su Qianci was slightly dazed. Her arms were suddenly grabbed as Li Sicheng’s face approached her. He growled, “Su Qianci, you dared to drug me?”

This scene seemed to be familiar.

In her last lifetime, when she was set up by Tang Mengying to spend her wedding night with Li Sicheng, he said exactly the same thing when they got up.

Su Qianci looked at him blankly and quickly said, “I will leave. No worries.”

After their divorce, he gave her a large sum of alimony, including some real estates. If Tang Mengying did not kill grandpa in Su Qianci’s house, Su Qianci would not even be here.

Although she was saved from the water, Su Qianci did not believe that her husband would like to see her. It was definitely another evil trick of Tang Mengying!

She had no idea what kind of impact her words had on Li Sicheng.

Leave?

This woman who tried everything to sleep with him was trying to leave after she drugged him and slept with him?

Throwing a deep glance at the woman, Li Sicheng found she was not kidding at all.

She was not rampant and rebellious as she used to be. Her expression was calm and cold, like someone who had been through desperation. What was left was only sadness.

Staring at her for a while, Li Sicheng snorted, approached her, and grabbed her hand. “What tricks are you trying to pull? First you drugged me, and now… Are you playing hard to get?” His voice was delightful, mellow like the sound of cello. However, every word from his mouth was malicious.

The woman in front of him had very fair skin, so smooth that it was as if she had no pores. Her eyes were wide and dark, her pupils looking like black grapes. With some confusion and surprise, she was staring at him like a lost deer, not knowing what to do.

“I didn’t. Let go of me.” Su Qianci tried to pull her hand away, only to find he was too strong.

When she was struggling, the blanket slid off her body. Li Sicheng’s eyes traced down her body. All of a sudden, he felt as if a million ants were crawling on his body, which made him feel quite uneasy.

Dammit!

Li Sicheng tried to move his eyes away, but a bulge appeared under the blanket. Su Qianci blushed, grabbing the blanket to cover herself up.

Although she had been married to him for five years, she had only slept with him once.

And that time, it was only because Tang Mengying drugged him.

Ever since then, Li Sicheng saw her as a virus. He would not even sleep in the same room with her, let alone touch her.

Facing him naked, Su Qianci blushed so hard that her face was burning.

“Let me go, Li Sicheng! You would even sleep with such an ugly woman as myself? Hasn’t Tang Mengying satisfied you?” Su Qianci became angry.

Tang Mengying?

“So you said you are ugly.” Li Sicheng smiled coldly. He looked at her nervous eyes and then her straight nose. Her lips were slightly apart, wet and supple. They reminded him of a word, kissable.

Feeling his throat tightened, Li Sicheng gazed at her lips and his eyes became darker.

Su Qianci, on the other hand, felt humiliated. If it were not for Tang Mengying, why would her face be ruined?

“Let go!” Su Qianci wiggled, and Li Sicheng couldn’t help drawing in his breath.

“Stop moving!” He cried.

“Ha…” Su Qianci snorted, “You need sex? Go find Tang Mengying. Sleeping with a woman as ugly as I am, you are just tasteless.”

As she said that, Su Qianci suddenly melted into tears.

For so many years, everyone was comparing her against Tang Mengying. She could never win. Tang Mengying was the princess in the palace, while she was dust on the floor.

That was not a good feeling.

Li Sicheng’s eyes became darker. He held her hands down and pushed himself against her. “If I go to Tang Mengying, what do I need you, my lawful wife for?”

Su Qianci became dazed and opened her eyes wide.

Lawful wife?

Li Sicheng looked at her expression and snorted in a cruel way. “The old man asked me to get married with you just to make us sleep together. You went through all the effort to drug me and now you are acting like this? Huh?”

“I did not!” Su Qianci became mad.

Li Sicheng ignored her, squeezing her chin with two fingers, and asked, “Do you know what lawful wife means?”

Chapter 3: Lawful F**ktoy

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



Su Qianci gazed at him and did not speak.

“Lawful f**ktoy.” Holding her chin, Li Sicheng kissed her. Su Qianci stared at him wide-eyed and started to struggle.

Lawful f**ktoy?

Struggling harder and harder with all her limbs, Su Qianci turned her head to the side and cried, “Li Sicheng, we had a divorce. This is rape!”

Li Sicheng paused and felt puzzled, his eyes dark and his eyebrows knitted.

Divorce?

They had only been married for three days, but this woman was already thinking about divorce? What trick is this?

“Let me go!” Not noticing the reaction of Li Sicheng, Su Qianci struggled with all she got. She stopped and cried, “You’re dirty. Don’t touch me…”

His mouth and body had been with Tang Mengying God knows how many times. So dirty… A man that had been with that woman.

Outside the room, with some muffled sound, someone knocked on the door. “Brother Sicheng, are you up?”

It was her, Tang Mengying!

Li Sicheng calmed himself down and looked to the door. Su Qianci took the opportunity to shove him aside. As Li Sicheng was caught off guard, he was shoved to the other side of the bed. Su Qianci held the blanket up and rolled herself under the bed.

“Since you’re not speaking, then I will come inside?” The voice of Tang Mengying was sweet and cute, sounding just like the girl next door. However, only Su Qianci knew how vicious she was.

The door was pushed open. When Tang Mengying tried to look inside, a red pillow was thrown at her, and Li Sicheng said coldly, “Go away!”

Hit in the face, Tang Mengying saw nothing before she was pushed out. The door was closed and locked on a whim.

Li Sicheng turned around, looking at Su Qianci hiding under the blanket like a mummy, and he felt rather amused.

What trick was this woman pulling?

Su Qianci’s face was covered in tears. As she looked down, she suddenly blushed. Su Qianci turned her head around and covered her face. However, she suddenly discovered that her face was extremely smooth!

Worried that she might be mistaken, Su Qianci continued to touch her skin. It was smooth and fine. There was no scar left by the fire! In addition, Su Qianci found that the room was all red.

There was red wedding decorations on the bed, the door, and even the pillow that Li Sicheng used to throw at Tang Mengying. Everything was red, the blanket and the linens…

Su Qianci looked at the sheet. A dried blood stain was left on it.

How come?

The old house, wedding decorations, and the blood stain…

Her heart suddenly started racing. Su Qianci thought of a crazy possibility and her breath quickened. She looked at Li Sicheng and asked, “What year is it? And what’s the date today?”

Li Sicheng looked at her as if she was dumb. “We have only been married for three days, and you are a good actress. Su Qianci, I underestimated you.” He did not pay her any attention anymore. Holding his desire back, he walked to the bathroom.

Su Qianci’s heart raced. She brought herself up to the vanity. The woman in the mirror had delicate features. On her smooth skin, there was no ugly scar. None!

Chapter 4: She Was Reborn


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



At twenty years old, she still looked a bit too young. However, she was a grown woman. Her eyes were wide, and her brows were fine. Everything about her oval face was attractive.

There were lots of skin products on her vanity, all famous brands.

Before she married Li Sicheng, her then “best friend” Tang Mengying suggested that she purchase these, telling her that it was a way to dignify herself.

She had believed her words in her last lifetime. Under the guidance of Tang Mengying, she had bought almost all the products that were expensive, yet they were not suitable for her, and they had all ended up in the trash can.

Li Sicheng had seen it all. It was exactly those details that had made him hate his wife more and more.

Every time Su Qianci thought of those incidents, she regretted it greatly. She often thought of what she would do if she could go back, but she did not expect this day to actually come!

Su Qianci chuckled, and then laughed. Then, she laughed louder and louder. Tears started to cover her face.

She died, and yet she didn’t. She was reborn.

In her last lifetime, she had loved Li Sicheng for five years and waited at his side. In order to become a qualified fine lady, she learned etiquette, musical instruments, foreign languages, finance, and business management on her own. She learned everything that he liked and needed. However, as hard as she had tried, she received no approval. There was only endless comparison and despise.

In her last lifetime, she had lived for Li Sicheng. Now she had another chance, and she would live for herself.

Knock, knock.

Someone knocked on the door, interrupting Su Qianci’s thoughts.

“Who is it?”

There was no answer, but Su Qianci had already known who it was.

She was in no rush to open the door. Checking her closet, she found a wardrobe of luxurious products. They were all picked by Tang Mengying. Each item was expensive, but none of them were suitable for her age and looks.

Su Qianci frowned and took a long time choosing. In the end, she still wore what she used to wear. It was only an ordinary brand. Although it did not match her identity, it suited her age and looks.

Reaching for her lingerie above, Su Qianci had just put her panties on when the door of the bathroom suddenly opened, heat spreading out from it.

Su Qianci was startled. She unconsciously covered her chest, turning her back to him.

Li Sicheng was wearing a fitted black silk robe, his muscular body shown clearly. Over 6 feet tall, he had a nice figure. His curly black hair was still dripping, his eyes fixed on her naked back.

The tender skin looked like the best silk with some blue marks, showing him what a crazy night they had spent.

It suddenly became awkward as silence fell.

Li Sicheng did not move, and Su Qianci was too embarrassed to turn around.

“You…”

The door was knocked on again, and Su Qianci’s words were swallowed.

Li Sicheng turned his eyes away and said, “Put it on.”

Brief—no room for argument.

Li Sicheng opened the door slightly. Seeing who was outside, he frowned and asked, “Do you need something?”

Standing at the door, Tang Mengying could only see half of Li Sicheng’s face. She tried to look inside and said, “I’m here to find Su Qianci. Is she not up yet?”

Chapter 5: The Pretentious Bitch

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

Although Tang Mengying’s voice was not loud, Su Qianci felt all kinds of emotions.

In her previous lifetime, Tang Mengying had simply broken in during Li Sicheng’s shower. Then, Tang Mengying had loudly announced that Su Qianci had drugged and raped her newly wedded husband.

Li Sicheng, who had been suspicious in the beginning, had hated Su Qianci even more.

“Do you need something?” Li Sicheng repeated his question.

Tang Mengying was smiling reluctantly. She pretended to move her arm back, seeming to hide something. She shook her head and said, “Nothing.”

Li Sicheng quickly looked to her hand behind her back but said nothing.

Seeing that he did not want to ask, Tang Mengying was a bit anxious. She simply threw the thing in her hand on the floor, which then broke.

Tang Mengying screamed, as if she was startled, “What should I do?”

Glancing at what was on the floor, Li Sicheng immediately saw the words on the broken bottle.

It was the most popular love potion at the time. Although Li Sicheng was no expert, he had heard of it.

And Tang Mengying was carrying this with her?

As if she was afraid that Li Sicheng might get the wrong idea, Tang Mengying quickly waved her hands.

“Brother Sicheng, please don’t get the wrong idea. This is not mine. I’m just keeping it for Qianci…”

“Keeping what for me?” Su Qianci walked up from behind and opened the door wider.

From the angle Tang Mengying was standing at, she could see the blood stain on the wedding bed and the messy bed linens.

The flame of jealousy suddenly rose.

Tang Mengying smiled reluctantly and said, “It’s just…what you left on the table yesterday. I’m afraid that auntie might see it, so I just took it away for you.”

The eyes of Li Sicheng fell on Su Qianci’s face like a lightning bolt.

However, he did not see any proof on her face. Her black eyes were bright and clear like a spring, without any impurity. Hearing Tang Mengying’s words, she seemed to be doubtful. Squatting down, she picked the pieces up.

“What is this? What is it for?”

Although she said that, Su Qianci had already recognized what it was.

She cast her eyes down and remained calm. Curiously, she looked up at Tang Mengying innocently.

Tang Mengying was slightly surprised but reacted quickly and said, “Of course I have no idea. How would I know what this kind of thing is for?”

“This kind of thing?” Su Qianci was even more suspicious and quickly asked, “What is this kind of thing then?”

“I…” Tang Mengying gritted her teeth and felt very surprised.

How come this foolish girl reacted so quickly today? Something seemed to be different.

However, what was it?

She looked down and saw Su Qianci’s face was slightly blushing. Her tender skin looked extremely fresh. At twenty years of age, she was like a fruit.

From her angle, Tang Mengying could see the blue marks under Su Qianci’s collar…

Tang Mengying gritted her teeth and felt extremely jealous.

It was this bottle of love potion that helped Su Qianci climb into Li Sicheng’s bed!

However, her goal was not to help Su Qianci get into his bed, but to make Li Sicheng resent Su Qianci!

“Not yours? But I saw yesterday that you poured this into the drink you gave to Brother Sicheng. Was I mistaken?”

Chapter 6: Childhood Sweetheart or His Wife


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



“Did I pour any drinks yesterday?” Su Qianci asked, “You gave me those two drinks, didn’t you?”

Tang Mengying’s heart was almost in her throat. She looked at Su Qianci in surprise.

This woman – when did she become so smart? Not only did she not fall for the trap, she managed to set Tang Mengying up.

With cold sweat falling from her forehead, Tang Mengying looked down and saw the kissing marks on Su Qianci’s collarbone again. Tang Mengying gritted her teeth and decided to push it further, “You asked me to pour the drinks for you, didn’t you, Su Qianci? I thought of you as my good friend. How come you…”

Li Sicheng looked at Su Qianci sharply with eyes like an eagle. Disappointed, Su Qianci had already had her answer. One was his childhood sweetheart, and the other his newly wedded wife who had only spent three days with him. Who would he believe?

The answer was obvious.

Willing to reconcile, Su Qianci stood up. Under the fierce gaze of Li Sicheng, she rebutted, “What did I do? You are the weird one, knocking on the door of a newly wedded couple. If I didn’t know any better, I would assume you have some agenda.”

Tang Mengying suddenly became pale. Is this Su Qianci the original Su Qianci? Three days later, she had undergone such a huge change.

She had become more mature, sophisticated, and intelligent! She led the topic naturally to question Tang Mengying. Such EQ and IQ were so different from that unruly girl Tang Mengying remembered her to be.

Could Tang Mengying be making a mistake?

No, impossible.

This stupid girl must have been frightened already. After all, if Li Sicheng believed he was drugged by Su Qianci, then Su Qianci would never have another opportunity to win him over.

Everyone had a bottom line, while Li Sicheng’s bottom line was mysterious. However, any scheme would piss him off – no matter how big or small

Blinking, Tang Mengying suddenly had a sullen look on her face.

“How could I have any agenda? Su Qianci, why did you say that? That is so hurtful!” Tang Mengying’s eyes became red and her tears started to drop. “I was only a bit upset. If I said something to make you unhappy, just tell me. I…” She then looked to Li Sicheng and said with tears, “Brother Sicheng, sorry. I thought even if you marry another woman, we could still be like before. However, I did not realize…”

Su Qianci’s heart sank. What a girl!

With just a few words, Tang Mengying seemed to be explaining, but actually put all the responsibility on Su Qianci. Sniffing her nose, Tang Mengying squatted hurriedly and said, “I accidentally broke the bottle. It would be horrible if any elders saw it. I will take care of it right away.”

The more she said it like that, the more sullen she looked. As Tang Mengying was about to pick the pieces up, she heard a cold voice, “Stand up.”

Li Sicheng pulled Tang up, looked at Su Qianci and asked, “Clean it up.”

“It’s okay, brother Sicheng…” Tang Mengying looked bullied with her eyes wide.

Su Qianci sneered inwardly and felt impressed. So Tang Mengying had such a high level of game play five years ago. With such an opponent, she did not die for nothing.

Chapter 7: Illegitimate Daughter


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


However, Li Sicheng did not even look at Tang Mengying. He quickly turned his head away and said coldly, “You leave first. This is the wedding room after all.”

Although Li Sicheng was still cold, his attitude toward Tang Mengying was much better than toward Su Qianci.

Tang Mengying was thrilled. Is he trying to look out for her and clear her name? Feeling extremely sweet, she simply answered “yes” obediently before she turned away and left slowly.

Li Sicheng’s curly, short hair was still dripping. He glanced at Su Qianci, his eyes dark and cold without any emotions revealed. Quickly, he turned around and returned to the room.

Su Qianci stood in front of the door, looking at the glass pieces on the floor, her nails digging into her arms.

Tang Mengying, Li Sicheng…I will get back at you for ruining my life.

After cleaning everything up, Su Qianci left the room after 10 o’clock. After the night of passion, Su Qianci was sore all over. Even when she was walking, she could feel her legs shivering.

“OMG, you got up just now? Indeed you are born to be a princess. My Mengying does not have such good fortune.” It was a shrill voice. Su Qianci saw it was a lady in her forties or fifties.

The mother of Li Sicheng was just talking to a lady next to her. Hearing that comment, she looked at Su Qianci with discontent and awkwardness.

The woman who spoke was a longtime neighbor of the Li family, Mrs. Tang, Tang Mengying’s mother. She initially thought that the Li’s and Tang’s would become relatives for sure but had no idea that Su Qianci would come in between. It was simply natural for Mrs. Tang to be upset.

In her previous lifetime, this comment of Mrs. Tang had brought her a lot of trouble.

She had thought of herself as the young mistress of the Li household and did not have the best temper. Hearing such a comment targeting at her, she immediately became mad and answered, “This is my house, what’s your business here?”

That was the effect that Mrs. Tang was looking for. She then led all the ladies to point fingers at Su Qianci, making Su Qianci less and less popular. From that point, all the ladies knew that the Li’s had a lazy girl married into their family. It was such a scandal that the good name of the Li’s had suffered.

That was also the beginning of the comparison between Su Qianci and Tang Mengying, which was Su Qianci’s nightmare. However, in this lifetime, Su Qianci would not make the same mistake.

Hearing the comment, Su Qianci looked down and whispered in a shy manner, “I… Last night I went to bed a bit too late. I was so tired, so…”

Seeing the look on Su Qianci’s face, the ladies sitting on the sofa waiting to meet the new girl had a knowing look on their faces. Today was not only the third day that she was married to Li Sicheng, but also the birthday of Li Sicheng’s mother.

Each year, Mrs. Li would have a big birthday. Since it was only the morning, the guests were all Mrs. Li’s close poker partners and neighbors, who were very interested in her new daughter-in-law.

“So, this is your daughter-in-law. She is so pretty!”

“Exactly. When they said she was from the Su family, I thought…”

“Yes, I did not realize that she would be the granddaughter of Mr. Su. She looks so much like her mother!”

Su Qianci’s family name was Su, because she used her mother’s family name.

Chapter 8: Such Difference


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


She had always been an orphan. Growing up, she had nothing except for her name. When she was eighteen years old, she was taken back by her uncle. Only then did she find out that she belonged to a prominent family in Kingstown.

Her mother, Su Han, got pregnant outside of marriage and disappeared eighteen years ago without any information. No one knew if she was still alive. Thinking of that, Mrs. Li did not look happy, and she glanced at Su Qianci coldly.

Su Qianci knew that Mrs. Li did not like her, so she did not respond. Su Qianci simply smiled at the ladies for talking about her. She quietly walked up and called Mrs. Li, “Mother.”

Mrs. Li did not want to be nice to the girl, but they were still in public. She held back her discontent and nodded without any expression.

“Auntie, happy birthday!” It was Tang Mengying’s voice.

Everyone saw Tang Mengying holding a big box walking over, with a huge smile on her face. Tang Mengying was very good-looking. Her eyebrows were delicate, and her eyes were huge. With a cute nose and sharp little chin—she looked like a doll with pink lips and smiley eyes.

Seeing Tang Mengying, Mrs. Li, who had no expression beforehand, immediately smiled and said, “Why are you here so early? You only came back from Australia a few days ago. You should have slept from the jet lag.”

Tang Mengying stuck her tongue out in a cute way and said, “I have been back for a couple of days already. It is auntie’s birthday, so how can I miss it just for sleep?” She smiled and went up to Mrs. Li, placing the big box on the coffee table among the ladies.

“What is this?”

“I admire that Mengying gives you a gift each year. We are also neighbors, but Mengying never paid such attention to us.”

“Right, but I thought Tang Mengying would become your daughter-in-law… However…” Before Mrs. Zhang finished her sentence, she was hit on the hand by Mrs. Mo. Mrs. Zhang’ s smile suddenly disappeared. She looked to Tang Mengying awkwardly and the latter blushed, seeming to feel embarrassed.

Very soon, everyone’s eyes fell on Su Qianci. As if she had heard nothing, Su Qianci made eye contact with everyone, smiled and said, “Let me go prepare some fruit for you. Please sit.”

“That’s okay. The help will do that.” Mrs. Li dialed back her smile and said, “Sit down, in case anyone says I am abusing my daughter-in-law.”

Even an idiot could tell something was off.

Right, Su Qianci was an illegitimate daughter whose father was unknown. How come she got to marry into the most prominent family, the Li family?

If it were not for the insistence and even threats of Li Sicheng’s grandfather, Captain Li, no one in the Li family would have agreed to the marriage. In the eyes of Mrs. Li, nothing about Su Qianci – no matter her education or her family – was a match for her son.

Su Qianci quietly found a remote spot to sit down, deliberately far from Mrs. Li.

In her previous lifetime, she had taken it for granted and sat next to Mrs. Li. However, she had been told to go away harshly, embarrassing herself and getting ridiculed by Tang Mengying.

Seeing that Su Qianci knew her place, Mrs. Li became less agitated. She quickly moved her eyesight away and saw the big box that was brought by Tang Mengying, smiling happily. “What did you prepare for me this time, Tang Mengying? You work so hard on your gift every time.”

“It’s okay.” Tang Mengying smiled. “I like to prepare gifts for auntie. Please have a look.”

Mrs. Li did not hesitate and unboxed the carefully wrapped package before she saw a gorgeous green qipao dress.

Everyone looked amazed by the garment.

“So pretty!”

“Is that embroidery? So beautiful!”

Mrs. Li had a huge smile on her face, feeling extremely proud when hearing the compliments.

Mrs. Tang took the opportunity to approach her and said, “My Mengying is the best dressmaker. Look at the detailed work. It took her a long time to finish making it.”

This remark caused even more shock among the ladies. Everyone looked surprised.

“Tang Mengying made it herself?”

“Impressive! Such a great girl!”

“With such skills and looks, Mengying, come be my daughter-in-law.”

Tang Mengying smiled elegantly, like a true lady. She nodded to all the compliments without acting awkwardly.

Mrs. Li sighed inwardly. What bad luck! If Tang Mengying were her daughter-in-law, that would be amazing. How come it turned out to be such a woman! Thinking that, she looked at Su Qianci resentfully, her smile disappearing.

Su Qianci knew clearly what Mrs. Li was thinking. Everything happening under her eyes had happened in her previous lifetime. Everyone had been praising Tang Mengying, and Su Qianci had become her stepping stone. However, at this moment…

“Su Qianci, what gift did you prepare for auntie?” Tang Mengying successfully moved the focus back onto Su Qianci. She smiled happily and kindly.

Ha, indeed. Such an act was the evidence of kindness to make Su Qianci feel less awkward in other people’s eyes.

However, Su Qianci knew that Tang Mengying only wanted for her to make a fool of herself! In her previous lifetime, Su Qianci could only smile awkwardly when Tang Mengying had showed her kindness. Because her gift was some luxury product the Su family prepared for her. It was expensive but not thoughtful at all compared with the qipao “handmade”by Tang Mengying.

In her previous lifetime, when she had showed her gift in front of everyone, Mrs. Tang had commented, “so unthoughtful, and you are the daughter-in-law.” After that, she had become the abomination. Everyone had started to praise Tang Mengying, and Mrs. Li had been even more upset about this daughter-in-law that she had never liked. She had wished that her son could divorce this woman immediately and marry Tang Mengying instead.

In the end, Tang Mengying said something to alleviate the awkwardness.

Sadly, the previous Su Qianci was so innocent that she had no idea she was set up. Instead, she was even grateful to Tang Mengying. In her previous life, she had always been positive and kind, unwilling to assume the worst in people. However, she had no idea that it was this mindset that caused such tragedy.

In this lifetime, she would not make the same mistake.

With a smile, Su Qianci did not immediately reply to Tang Mengying. Instead, she looked at the green qipao Mrs. Li was holding. Seemingly surprised, she asked, “Tang Mengying, did you study at Old Kingstown Qipao?”

Tang Mengying did not expect Su Qianci to suddenly change the subject and was surprised by her question. On the other hand, Mrs. Tang was less polite than her daughter. She sneered and said, “You think my Mengying has the same amount of leisure as you do? She went to Australia to study abroad and only graduated and returned a few days ago.”

Su Qianci was even more surprised.

“However, I do think the embroidery is the work of the dressmaker at Old Kingstown Qipao. Look, there is a little curve in the end, which is the unique technique of Mr. Ai.”

Tang Mengying’s smile froze. Mrs. Tang hit Su Qianci’s hand and said, “All you do all day is brag. If you want to praise Mengying, you can just say so. Her techniques are great, much better than yours.”

Mrs. Li was also a bit upset. She looked at Su Qianci coldly and said, “What do you know? You probably haven’t even seen many pieces of qipao, and now you’re talking about embroidery. Do not make a fool of yourself.”

Hearing those words, Tang Mengying looked even more pleased. Although she did not know how the stupid girl found out, no one would believe a word Su Qianci said anyway.

As expected, all the ladies cast blaming looks at Su Qianci. Mrs. Mo said, “Mengying made so much effort to make the qipao for your mother-in-law. It is not appropriate for you to say that, don’t you think?”

“If you are that good, you can make your own gift as well. But do not sabotage others. That is shameful.”

“I was wondering why your mother-in-law did not like you. And now I finally have an idea. If I had such a daughter-in-law, I would not like her as well.”

“Please don’t say so.” Tang Mengying had a look of compassion on her face. “Qianci did not mean to say that. Maybe she was mistaken.”

“Mistaken?” Mrs. Tang’s voice was shrill, “How could she say such a thing when she is mistaken? If she has her facts correct, what can she pull?”

Su Qianci glanced at Mrs. Tang coldly and said, “Mrs. Tang, this is indeed the technique of Mr. Ai. I have proof.”

Mrs. Tang snickered and crossed her arms. “I thought the Su family brought you back and spent two years to put some education in you. However, now I know that the scum from the gutter can never be taught.”

Her words were mean. The ladies became quiet. Looking at each other, they felt the atmosphere had become awkward. The words were so terrible that everyone looked at Su Qianci.

Su Qianci’s face dropped as she dug her fingers into her arms. Everyone thought Su Qianci would be angry. After all, no one could listen to such terrible words. In addition, Su Qianci was famous for being short-tempered. However, she did not lose it.

Su Qianci looked at Mrs. Tang coldly and sneered. “It is true that the scum from the gutter cannot be changed. When a shrewd thief becomes a lady, I’m sure her children would steal as well.”

Hearing that, Mrs. Tang suddenly changed her expression.

When she was young, she was a charged with stealing. However, after she married the father of Tang Mengying, that part of her life should have been purged. How come this foolish girl would know that? Unconsciously, she looked at the ladies, who were at a loss. Obviously, no one knew what Su Qianci was talking about.

Suppressing her shock and anger, Mrs. Tang dodged eye contact and screamed, “What do you mean?”

“I have proof that this garment is made by Mr. Ai at Old Kingstown Qipao, instead of Tang Mengying,” Su Qianci stated clearly, word by word.

Tang Mengying looked upset and said, “Su Qianci, why would you say that? I know that you are unhappy that auntie likes me more. However, please don’t make things up.”

“You know very well whether I have made things up.” Su Qianci glanced at her coldly.

Tang Mengying saw her eyes and suddenly felt nervous. At that moment, something seemed to come out of Su Qianci’s eyes and pierced her.

It was hatred!

The hatred was as thick as blood and sunk deep into the bones. However, when Tang Mengying looked again, what she saw was gone. It was as if everything was just an illusion.

Or was it?

Su Qianci held back the urge to tear Tang Mengying apart and said calmly, “Mr. Ai’s wife is Arabic and her name meant happiness, so every time he finished a garment, he would leave the signature inside the collar, which was happiness in Arabic.”

“Bluffing! You know Arabic?” Mrs. Tang scoffed.

“Check it to see if I am bluffing.” Su Qianci held the collar up.

Seeing the black letters on it, Mrs. Tang immediately said, “It is no more than simple embroidery. How can you prove that it is Arabic?”

Su Qianci had seen that question coming and called, “Liu Sao.”

Liu Sao, the servant, was stunned by how calm Su Qianci was. Called upon suddenly, she immediately responded, “Here.”

“Could you call Sicheng over for me?” Then she looked at Mrs. Li, “You can choose not to believe me. However, you must believe your son. He knows eight languages, and maybe Arabic is one of them. Let him tell us whether it is Arabic or not.”

Mrs. Tang fretted and cried, “What do you mean? You think my Mengying is lying?”

Su Qianci snorted, “I don’t know whether she lied. However, this is definitely Mr. Ai’s work.”

“Forget it, mother,” Tang Mengying said, “Qianci, it was a trivial matter. Why do you have to be so aggressive? If you say it is, then let’s just assume that.”

“No.” Su Qianci’s heart was trembling, “It is no big deal for you, but your mother’s words were truly hurtful.”

Tang Mengying did not say anything, throwing a blaming glance at her mother. Everyone heard what Mrs. Tang said and it was over the line. No one thought Su Qianci was to blame. Even Mrs. Li felt a bit pissed. No matter how much she disliked Su Qianci, Su Qianci was still her daughter-in-law. When Su Qianci was scolded like that, she lost face as well.

“If I’m proven right, then Mrs. Tang, you should apologize to me,” said Su Qianci.

Mrs. Tang felt upset, “For what?”

“You don’t dare, do you? You are afraid that I will expose your lies, right?”

Mrs. Tang was extremely upset. If she insisted that Liu Sao not call Li Sicheng, she would be admitting that she was lying. That way, not only her reputation, but the reputation of the Tang family and Tang Mengying would all suffer.

However, if Li Sicheng came and recognized the word to be happiness in Arabic, what then? Su Qianci seemed to have said that Li Sicheng knew eight languages. However, Arabic might not be one of them, right?

Mrs. Tang gritted her teeth and yelled, “Nonsense, who’s afraid?”

“Then go call Li Sicheng,” Mrs. Li finally said. “Let him see if that’s true, so that you can have your answer.”

Mrs. Li’s voice was cold. But there was no telling whether she was talking to Su Qianci or Mrs. Tang. Liu Sao nodded and went away to call Li Sicheng.

When Sicheng came out, he was wearing something casual. A gray V-neck cotton T-shirt and white pants that made him look tall and handsome. There seemed to be a galaxy in his eyes. He pursed his lips and walked up.

Seeing everyone was silent, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Mengying subconsciously, asking, “What happened?”

Old habits die hard. He never saw Su Qianci at first glance, but Tang Mengying. Su Qianci felt discouraged, but she soon got ahold of herself.

Tang Mengying looked upset and tried to speak. However, before she started, Mrs. Li waved at Li Sicheng and said, “Li Sicheng, come over to see this embroidery. What is it?”

Li Sicheng took back his glance and walked up, glancing at Su Qianci subconsciously. Seeing the face that was sullen and resentful, he thought she was pretty, although not as breathtaking as Tang Mengying. His eyes only lingered for a moment before they were focused on the collar.

“Tell mom, is this Arabic?”

He nodded and said, “Yes, it is Arabic. It means happiness.”

As he said that, Su Qianci suddenly wetted her eyes and melted down with emotions. Mrs. Tang, on the other hand, became pale.

The ladies looked at each other, feeling sorry and compassionate about Su Qianci. However, the look they threw at Mrs. Tang and Tang Mengying was much more complex.

“What is it?” Li Sicheng still did not know what had happened. Seeing Su Qianci was brought to tears, he slightly frowned.

Su Qianci noticed his gaze and looked up. All of a sudden, their eyes met. Li Sicheng’s eyes were always cold and deep. She had never seen anyone’s eyes could be that cold and calm. It was as if even if a giant mountain collapsed in front of him, he would not move. No matter what she did, he was always calm and mysterious.

It was in those eyes that she drowned herself in her previous life, which was full of pain. However, she would not do that again, never. She would not love him this time around. Avoiding his investigative look, Su Qianci asked Mrs. Tang, “Mrs. Tang, do you think you should apologize?”

Mrs. Tang did not look too happy, but Tang Mengying who was standing behind her walked up and said to Mrs. Tang, “I’m sorry, mother. I lied to you…”

As she apologized, the ladies yelped incredulously.

Mrs. Li was obviously shocked, unable to believe that Tang Mengying would do something like that.

Guilt crossed Tang Mengying’s face. She said, “Grandma was a famous dressmaker when she was younger. She wished that I could hand-make a qipao for auntie. However, I spent so many years abroad that I had forgotten what my grandmother taught me. When I was at home, I was only pretending for grandmother’s sake. I did not realize I would mislead you. Initially, I wanted to let it be and explain to you and auntie afterwards. But Su Qianci…”

Chapter 13: Grandpa

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



“That’s what it is.” One of Mrs. Li’s friends nodded knowingly. “Old Mrs. Tang is weak now. Tang Mengying is being a good kid, trying not to let her down.”

Tang Mengying looked down, showing guilt and bowing to everyone sincerely. “I’m sorry for not explaining in time. But I did not mean it. I wanted to explain afterwards. I did not know that Su Qianci would be so… so serious about this…”

“Exactly. Focusing on such a detail, she is petty.” Mrs. Tang cut in and said, “The Su family did not teach you well. An illegitimate daughter after all. I wonder what Captain Li was thinking.” In her eyes, Tang Mengying was the one who should be married to Li Sicheng.

Mrs. Li did not look too happy. It was her daughter-in-law after all. Even if she did not like Su Qianci, Mrs. Tang was not giving her any face when scolding Su Qianci.

“It seems that you are very curious about what I think,” an old voice cut in, full of energy.

Everyone was shocked and looked back.

“Mr. Li.”

“Captain Li.”

“Dad…”

An old man walked in. He was in his sixties, but his back was straight, and his movements looked well-trained, like a soldier stationed on the national border.

He was one of the people that Su Qianci respected the most, the master of the house, Captain Li Xun.

Seeing him, Su Qianci couldn’t help straightening her back. It was a habit of hers. Su Qianci did not know that her habitual move made Li Sicheng’s eyes even darker.

Hearing Captain Li’s voice, Mrs. Tang’s chubby face became pale. Feeling the awkwardness, she quickly explained, “No, Mr. Li, I am only saying that casually. Please do not take it seriously. How should I know what you think?”

Su Qianci sneered inwardly. When facing Su Qianci, Mrs. Tang was so arrogant that she could not even contain herself. When facing grandpa however, Mrs. Tang became such a coward. What a difference!

“Speaking casually? You were embarrassing the granddaughter-in-law that I hand-picked. If I did not know you better, I would think that you were trying to pick a fight with me.” His volume was just medium, but the words carried a lot of weight.

Such words frightened Mrs. Tang immediately. When she was about to explain, a pair of hands held her down. Tang Mengying squeezed her mother’s hands and said to Captain Li, “Grandpa Li, long time no see.”

Captain Li glanced at her and only nodded before his eyes fell on Su Qianci. His aging face suddenly looked happy as he waved at Su Qianci, “Qianqian, come over to grandpa.”

Qianqian…

It had been a long while since she had heard that. Ever since she was set up by Tang Mengying and suspected to commit arson, she had never heard grandpa call her in this way.

It had been at least two years!

Su Qianci’s eyes wetted as she went up to him and called, “Grandpa.”

“Good girl.” Captain Li grinned as his wrinkles folded. He was so nice that it was hard for people to connect him with the scary captain. “Did you sleep well? Are you used to sleeping in the old house?”

Su Qianci nodded meekly like a kitten.

Chapter 14: He Was… Holding Her

“That’s good. That’s good. Is anyone bullying you in this family?”

“No, everyone is very nice to me. No one bullies me,” Su Qianci replied sophisticatedly.

Captain Li nodded and said with a smile, “If anyone bullies you, just tell grandpa. Not only within the family, but also the outsiders.”

Everyone present was smart, so they all understood what Captain Li meant.

Mrs. Tang became even more pale, not daring to say anything on the side. Tang Mengying smiled and walked up, saying, “Grandpa, there is brother Sicheng in the house, and me out of the house as Qianqian’s sister. You can rest assured.”

Captain Li heard her words, looked at her and snickered, “If you think like this, that would be the best.”

Tang Mengying’s smile froze. As she was about to say something else, Captain Li suddenly looked to Li Sicheng who had been silent and called, “Li Sicheng.”

This sudden turn made Tang Mengying swallow her words. She was not sure whether she should say it anyway. It was very awkward.

“Grandpa.” Li Sicheng was not affected by any of that. It seemed he was a god, indifferent to everything.

Hearing Captain Li’s call, Li Sicheng walked over and appeared in the center again.

“If I remember it correctly, today should be the third day since your wedding? Are you not going to take your wife to visit her maiden family?”

Pursing his thin lips, Li Sicheng was obviously unwilling. However, seeing his grandpa’s unquestionable look, he had to answer, “Yes, I am preparing to.”

“Stop pretending.” Captain Li patted him on the shoulder and said, “Do not lose face of the Li family.”

“OK.” Li Sicheng put his hands into his pockets, glanced at Su Qianci, and walked back to his room slowly.

The ladies looked at each other as they could tell Captain Li was very protective of Su Qianci. Furthermore, they saw that he did not like Tang Mengying. In public, Captain Li rebutted Mrs. Tang and Tang Mengying, but supported the illegitimate daughter of the Su family fully. If this was spread out, no one would dare to bully Su Qianci anymore and everyone must respect her.

After all, the name of Li Xun was even more scary than the reputation of the Li family.

“Today is your mother’s birthday. Didn’t you prepare a gift? Take it out,” Captain Li noted kindly.

Su Qianci nodded and went back to the room quickly.

The gifts was prepared by the Su family, part of her dowry. It was in the closet of her bedroom.

However, as she opened the door, she saw Li Sicheng picking out shirts, topless.

Su Qianci blushed and shut the door behind her, quickly walking to the closet with the gift inside, deliberately ignoring him.

When she retrieved the gift and turned, she suddenly hit a meat wall.

Su Qianci yelped and step back. However, the closet was small, and she tripped over it, falling involuntarily.

However, when Su Qianci thought she was about to fall hard, a long arm appeared behind her waist.

An unfamiliar scent of male hormones surrounded her. Su Qianci felt her heart tremble and sensed his body temperature on her waist. He was… holding her!

Chapter 15: This Man Is A Tease

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



Su Qianci felt enchanted, but then came back to herself. She straightened her back and pushed Li Sicheng away. Touching his impeccable skin and muscles, she suddenly blushed.

This man… Such a tease!

He not only had a gorgeous face, but also had the bronzed skin many people would kill for and a body that… She suddenly remembered his significant erection and wiggled involuntarily. Shaking her head hard, she tried to get rid of her unholy thought.

Quickly moving her eyes away and looking up, she saw his dark pupils. For some reason, Su Qianci explained, “I still have a gift to give… You… keep going!”

However, when Su Qianci was about to run, her arms were caught.

“Keep going?” Li Sicheng’s voice was deep and mellow, like a cup of well-made hot coffee, rich in flavor.

Su Qianci was caught off guard and pushed against the wall. Her beautiful eyes were opened wide. Su Qianci looked at the man in front of her, full of surprise.

“You asked me to keep going? Did you know what I wanted to do?”

His voice was so intoxicating that Su Qianci’s heart raced. People say that rising intonation was the sexiest in a man. She did not know about other women, but she was so nervous…

Looking at Li Sicheng’s dark pupils, Su Qianci swallowed and said timidly, “Weren’t you trying to change?”

He needs to cover his sexy body up first. Luckily, Su Qianci had a soul five years older than her appearance. If it were before, she would have drooled all over him.

“I was trying to.”

But now he did not want to do that.

With an undetectable dangerous look on his face, Li Sicheng curled his lips into a smile, “You want to leave?”

Holding back her desire to touch him, Su Qianci nodded quickly, took his hands away and said, “I’m going to give the gift to mother.” She then pushed him away and quickly ran out, not daring to stay any longer.

She also conveniently shut the door.

Li Sicheng looked at the door and then squinted at a mirror close to him. The man in the mirror was handsome and fit. If it were the Su Qianci that she used to be, the moment he leaned her against the wall, she would have directly jumped him and announced, “We are husband and wife, and I shall perform my duty!”

But now…

Was she pretending it? It looked a bit too real though. However, could this be who she really was? How come she had such a huge change over the night? He turned his attention back to his closet. He only needed to test her.

Su Qianci had no idea that he had already had suspicions. Full of hope, she retrieved the gift. When she appeared in the salon again, everyone was looking at her. Trying to make it seem natural, Su Qianci walked out with her best posture.

Mrs. Li looked at Su Qianci with an investigative and pleased look. She was glad that this daughter-in-law did not shame herself in front of her grandpa!

“Grandpa, mother,” Su Qianci called and placed a large box on the table and then a smaller box in front of Captain Li.

Chapter 16: Kissing Ass Without Looking Obvious

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



“Grandpa… My uncle asked me to bring this to you. We wish you longevity and good fortune.”

Captain Li did not react much. He smiled kindly and said, “You prepared a gift for me as well? Ha ha, thank your uncle for me.”

The elderly shall always be respected, so the order of presenting gifts should be from grandpa to her mother-in-law. Su Qianci saw his smile and had an unknowing look in her eyes. This pen did not come from her uncle, but herself.

Previously, when she was shopping with Tang Mengying, she really liked the look of the pen, so Tang Mengying urged her to buy it. She spent more than a hundred dollars on it, but never used it.

However, later on, Tang Mengying used it to criticize her extravagance, which turned many heads. Now, she was going to present this pen and lie in of Tang Mengying’s face. Based on what she knew about Tang Mengying…

“Ah…” Tang Mengying looked surprised and said, “Isn’t this the pen that I accompanied you to buy when I came back? How come it becomes your uncle’s?”

Indeed, indeed. Someone like Tang Mengying would never let this go. However, this was exactly what Su Qianci wanted. Su Qianci pretended to blush and stutter.

Seeing that, Tang Mengying immediately “kindly” spoke, “Maybe I remembered it wrong. It should just be a similar looking package, and should not be the one you paid more than a hundred dollars for on a whim, right?”

“More than a hundred dollars”

“on a whim”?

Hearing the words, both Mrs. Li and Captain Li frowned a little.

Su Qianci immediately shook her head, “On a whim? No, I picked it out carefully…” Immediately, she covered her mouth, looking regretted.

Tang Mengying heard that and blamed Su Qianci, “Qianci, why do you…”

Although Tang Mengying stopped there, she left even more space for imagination.

Su Qianci had to admit that this trick worked. However, that was what Su Qianci was going for. Su Qianci looked nervous and whispered, “I…”

Mr. Li looked at Su Qianci deeply, starting to unwrap the package. An all black pen, cold and heavy upon the touch. Diamonds were decorated on the body and tip of the pen, making it look effortlessly elegant.

Captain Li smiled happily and said, “Good eye. You picked this?”

Su Qianci nodded, blushing. She said, “This design looks simple, but has a lot of thought in it. It is so low-key that I think it suits grandpa very much, which is why I…”

She was kissing ass without looking obvious, making Captain Li smile even more.

“You’re just giving a gift. Why did you use your uncle’s name? Lying in front of so many people, you bring disgrace to the Li household.” Mrs. Tang looked at Su Qianci with contempt.

“Because I know that grandpa is frugal. If he knew that I spent so much money on the pen, he would be displeased. That is why I mentioned my uncle, who would not know anyway.” Su Qianci put out her tongue and looked at Captain Li timidly, “Grandpa, you’re not mad, are you?”

“Oh, Qianqian!” Captain Li said, “I have seen so many people who take other people’s achievements as their own. And you would rather do the opposite…”

Chapter 17: It Was Li Sicheng That She Had Married

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


The words of Captain Li reminded all the ladies of the qipao incident, and they suddenly looked at Tang Mengying in a weird way.

Tang Mengying clenched her fists and smiled. However, the smile was rather reluctant.

As if he were just making an irrelevant comment, Captain Li pretended to be displeased and said, “Just this once, I will take it. Do not put your uncle in this position again.”

Su Qianci nodded and saw a tall figure coming from the bedroom. Su Qianci’s smile caught Li Sicheng’s eyes when he walked out. The face that was still a bit too young smiled like the blooming of the flower. She seemed to have an aura surrounding her.

Pretty. That was what Li Sicheng was thinking at that moment. He looked down, and then looked up.

“Let’s go.” As he said that, Li Sicheng had already walked toward the gate.

So cold. So cold that it was as if he was not talking to his newly wedded wife.

Tang Mengying felt slightly relieved and content, looking at Su Qianci provocatively. Tang Mengying believed that her plan last night went very smoothly. If she put more effort into it, Su Qianci would never have any credibility in front of Li Sicheng again.

At the time, no matter how much ass kissing this stupid girl did, it would be in vain. After all, it was Li Sicheng who she married, not Li Xun. Tang Mengying would become the wife of Li Sicheng sooner or later.

Seeing Li Sicheng acting this way, Captain Li sighed inwardly. It seemed that the young couple needed a bit more time to get familiar with each other.

Su Qianci was used to that. Looking at Mrs. Li apologetically, she said, “Mother, sorry, your gift…”

“Go.” Mrs. Li was smiling in her eyes, as she had changed her opinion about Su Qianci. It seemed that this daughter-in-law was not as bad as she had thought.

Li Sicheng did not use a chauffeur but drove himself in front of the gate, where Su Qianci was waiting for him. He glanced at her and did not say a word. Knowing that he did not like her, Su Qianci remained quiet as well.

In her last lifetime, in the old house, she had been unable to control her anger under the provocation of Tang Mengying, so she had completely lost it in public and brought shame to the Li household. Captain Li had not even entered the salon. And Su Qianci had had no idea that grandpa knew what had happened.

Thinking about it, it was probably because of what she had done that Captain Li did not ask Li Sicheng to accompany her to her maiden family.

In the end, when the Su family called specifically to ask Su Qianci, she then remembered that she should have gone to the Su family on that day. Because of that, her status in her maiden family also became lower. She was pressured a lot by her uncle and aunt because of that and had a very hard time.

After Li Sicheng drove for a dozen minutes, Su Qianci suddenly found that Li Sicheng did not go straight to the Su family but stopped at a shopping area.

“Let’s go,” Li Sicheng said with no expression.

Su Qianci pursed her lips, feeling disappointed. However, it was expected. Even with what grandpa had said, Li Sicheng was not obligated to follow through. As long as he could fool grandpa, that was probably enough. Thinking of that, Su Qianci felt a bit at loss. Unbuckling herself, she reached for the door.

Chapter 18: Which Is the Real Her?

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



When she had just reached for the car door, the man next to her spoke again, “I’ll give you twenty minutes to change.”

Su Qianci was stunned, looking down at what she was wearing. She was wearing her favorite outfit. Although it was not a name brand and did not have the best quality, it really suited her. When she was moving, she did not want to throw it away and brought it to the Li family. She did not realize that he had even noticed such a detail.

“Here.” Li Sicheng looked calm and sounded cold, but he was handing her a black card.

Su Qianci was dazed at the black card in his hand. He was… giving her money? Su Qianci’s heart raced a little, looking at him incredulously. There was no difference on his face, as if the black card with a five-million-dollar credit line was nothing.

However, Su Qianci felt a shock in her heart. What surprised her was not how generous he was, but the fact that it was the first time that he gave her something in her two lifetimes.

Seeing that she was dazed, Li Sicheng frowned, displeased. “I don’t want the Su family to think that the Li family could not even afford to buy you an outfit.”

Hearing his words, which were somewhat like an explanation, Su Qianci looked outside the car and saw she was in front of a shopping mall, which made her feel relieved.

Of course, it was not because of her.

“Thank you.” Su Qianci did not hesitate to take the card and get out of the car.

Watching her going into the shopping mall, Li Sicheng seemed to have some thoughts in his mind. It seemed that she was truly different. Her attitude did not seem to be fake. So… Maybe the Su Qianci before was the fake one.

Which Su Qianci was the real Su Qianci?

Walking into her favorite luxury store, Su Qianci felt like all the shop assistants were looking at her once she entered the store. Seeing Su Qianci’s outfit, the shop assistants’ smiles very soon disappeared. They curled their lips downward disdainfully and looked at her with contempt. It was as if a homeless person had entered a five-star hotel.

Su Qianci felt a bit amused. Fortunately, Li Sicheng reminded her to get changed. Otherwise, if she wore what she was wearing to the Su family, her aunt and cousins would laugh at her.

However, there was no need to pay attention to the attitude of these shop assistants. The world was like this as always: a prostitute has more dignity than a poor person.

She wandered around and was attracted by a gorgeous dress displayed in the middle of the store. As she was about to reach for the dress, she heard a high-pitched female voice say, “Hey, don’t touch that. The dress is very expensive!”

Su Qianci turned her head and saw a female shop assistant. She walked to Su Qianci, displeased. “Do you know how much this piece costs? What if you damage it by touching it?”

Her words were full of contempt. Su Qianci asked, “So a fitting room is not an option here?”

“Whoever could afford it can try it on.” The shop assistant was disgusted by the cheap outfit Su Qianci was wearing and said coldly, “I’m sorry, Miss. I think you should leave. I will not walk you out.”

Su Qianci looked to the other shop assistants and felt it was unreasonable. She then asked, “This is how this shopping mall treats its customers?”

Hearing Su Qianci’s words, the shop assistant was very amused, as if she had heard some kind of joke. “Whoever could afford our pieces are, of course, our customers.”

Chapter 19: You Mean I Cannot Afford It?

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


You mean I cannot afford it?

Su Qianci smiled and was about to say something when she suddenly saw two people walking inside together.

“What’s the situation here? Is someone who can’t afford the items here to cause trouble?” The female voice sounded mean. It was a man and woman who had come inside. The man was tall and handsome, and the woman was elegant and pretty.

When they walked inside, the expression of the shop assistant suddenly changed. She quickly forced a smile and called, “Miss Liu, you have come.”

Su Qianci also looked their way and felt slightly surprised. If she remembered correctly, Liu Anan was the daughter of Mrs. Tang’s brother, making her Tang Mengying’s cousin. Liu Anan was also Su Qianci’s worst enemy during high school.

Although Liu Anan was from a poor family, her family became rich after Mrs. Tang married well. They were the new money.

However, the man standing next to Liu Anan was Su Qianci’s first love when she was younger. His name was Fu Lengbing, a truly handsome guy. Not only was he handsome, but he was also from a rich family.

Seeing Fu Lengbing, Su Qianci felt a bit dazed. It had literally been a lifetime apart, so she did not imagine that she would see this high school sweetheart again. However, at this point, she felt nothing for him.

She did remember that in her previous lifetime, Liu Anan was later married to a middle-aged businessman, gave birth to a son and got dozens of millions of dollars. Su Qianci never realized that these two were once together.

Hearing the words of the shop assistant, Liu Anan nodded arrogantly, looking pleased for being recognized. Then, she looked at Su Qianci and seemed surprised. “Isn’t this our campus belle Su Qianci? You are here shopping as well?”

The shop assistant quickly kissed her ass and said, “So Miss Liu, you know this person?”

Liu Anan snickered and said, “How can I not know her? She was suddenly admitted to a renowned university after being a bad student in high school. That makes her famous in our school. Isn’t that right, Lengbing?”

Fu Lengbing frowned and looked at Su Qianci, who seemed to be somewhat different from his impression. Su Qianci had a gorgeous face. Her nose was straight, her eyes were wide, and her hair was dark and soft. She had the simplest hairstyle, long straight black hair parted in the middle, making her face even more eye-catching.

When she was in high school, Su Qianci had been the campus belle. At the time, she was a rebel and did not have the best style. Her hair and outfits were all Gothic. Now changing her style, she was so pretty that he could hardly look away.

Hearing what Liu Anan said, the shop assistant looked knowingly and was even more impatient about Su Qianci. She waved her hand and said, “Go away. If you don’t, I will call security!”

Su Qianci smirked, taking out her purse from her handbag. A black card quickly appeared in her hand as she asked, “Is this card enough?”

Seeing the black card, the shop assistant, who was about to make some remarks, became silent immediately. She grabbed Su Qianci’s black card, examined it, and said, “It is real.”

For such a black card, it had at least a credit line of five million dollars! Seeing her incredulous look, Su Qianci looked back at the dress that caught her eyes and said, “Let me try that dress on.”

Feeling reluctant, the shop assistant still had to retrieve the dress and handed it to Su Qianci with both hands. Su Qianci took the dress and entered the fitting room.

Seeing the black card, Liu Anan looked jealous and gritted her teeth. She chuckled. “I was wondering why she was so confident. It turns out that she is a mistress. Not bad. Being a mistress is indeed a source of income.”

Chapter 20: A Slut Is A Slut

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


The shop assistant looked knowingly at her, and flattered Liu Anan by saying, “So she is a mistress. No wonder. I didn’t think with her style, she could have a card like this.”

“Indeed. The woman was quite a slut in high school. Everyone said that she slept with the headmaster. Otherwise, how could she possibly go to that good of a university?” Liu Anan was satisfied with what the shop assistant had said.

With the sound of the door opening in the fitting room, Su Qianci walked out and impressed everyone that saw her. With her old outfit, Su Qianci looked pretty but ordinary, like the girl next door. With this brand new sleeveless dress, Su Qianci’s skin looked even brighter and she looked like a socialite. Every woman liked to look good, and Su Qianci was no exception. Staring at herself in the mirror, she smiled satisfactorily.

The shop assistants were even more shocked. It was perfect! The dress looked like it was made for her. Not only the size, but the style matched her so well. It was the first time for them, seeing someone wearing the dress so well. Even Fu Lengbing, who had seen a lot of good-looking girls, was dazed by Su Qianci.

Seeing Fu Lengbing’s reaction, Liu Anan felt jealous and smirked. “Talk about the importance of outfits. Even a chicken could be dressed to be a peacock. However, there is no way that a birdie could become a phoenix.”

Su Qianci suddenly frowned and looked to a shop assistant, saying, “You indeed have a diverse pool of clients. Don’t you smell that? Are you not going to get rid of her?”

Being accused of her smell, Liu Anan was so mad that her face became blue. She yelled, “It is you who should go!”

Su Qianci ignored her, went to the register with her black card and said, “Check please.”

The shop assistant was very thrilled that she was able to sell the dress so easily. She quickly went to the register and glimpsed at Su Qianci’s handbag. Although there was no logo and it was extremely low-key, she exclaimed, “It is the limited runway version of Dior this year!”

Meanwhile, another shop assistant also noticed it. She muttered, “Only ten of these were sold globally, right?”

The words shocked Liu Anan and Fu Lengbing as well. Only ten in the whole world and Su Qianci was holding one! She must have other backgrounds, because such a piece could not be bought with money.

The shop assistants all had mixed expressions on their faces. Who could imagine that wearing such a cheap outfit, Su Qianci was carrying a black card and such a rare handbag! These facts were like slaps on their faces.

The shop assistant that had ridiculed Su Qianci immediately blushed and quietly checked her out.

Liu Anan looked even more angry. She sneered and said sourly, “Ha, the money of selling yourself is no big deal! I wonder who your patron is. Is he sixty or seventy? I heard you’re quite good in bed. Our headmaster, the old man, was probably so pleased with you that he recommended you to your university.”

Chapter 21: Unworthy Opponent

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


Su Qianci glanced at Liu Anan coldly and saw her face twisted out of jealous. With a smile, Su Qianci ridiculed, “Bad personality and language, I am very reluctant to admit that you are a classmate of mine.”

Su Qianci turned her eyes away with arrogance. Su Qianci was 5’4″, a bit smaller than the size of Liu Anan. However, at this moment, she gave Liu Anan an incredible amount of pressure. It was not about the height or the look, but psychology. The pressure was enough to break Liu Anan up.

Fu Lengbing couldn’t resist the temptation to check Su Qianci out. At this point, Su Qianci was incredibly chic with her movements and gestures. Compared to that girl in high school, she was a different person. In front of Su Qianci, Liu Anan looked like the ugly duckling, and Su Qianci was the white swan.

The huge difference made Liu Anan feel even more angry. She clenched her fists and was about to shoot fire from her eyes. Liu Anan yelled, “However, I am even more reluctant to admit that a person was willing to sleep with a man older than her father is my high school classmate.”

“That’s enough!” Fu Lengbing stopped her. “That’s too far.”

Coming from a rich family, Fu Lengbing knew better than anyone else that his older sister had her eyes on the handbag for more than half a year but still failed to buy one. The fact that Su Qianci was able to purchase the bag told him that the man behind her back was very important.

In addition, Su Qianci was behaving in a much different way as well. Whether she was a mistress or not, Su Qianci was not someone they could afford to cross at this point.

However, Liu Anan did not know why Fu Lengbing said that. She flicked away his hand and cried, “Too far? Do you feel sorry for her? Seeing that she has become so pretty and awesome, are you planning to go back to her?”

It was the most embarrassed that Fu Lengbing had ever felt in his life. He bristled. “Have you had enough? Let’s go. This is so embarrassing!”

Su Qianci sneered, deciding not to pay her any attention. It was not worth her time to quarrel with someone like this.

After she swiped her card and signed, Liu Anan exclaimed again, “You bitch. You slept with the headmaster for college and slept with an old man for his black card. A dog always eats shit!”

More and more people gathered, and all the eyes were on Su Qianci. However, Su Qianci did not look nervous at all. She was only indifferent. “Liu Anan, do you know how many years you would spend in prison for libel?”

Seeing that more and more people were gathering, Liu Anan raised her voice. “You were admitted to a famous university, but I did not do well in the college entrance examination. Everyone knew how good I was at school. You must have f**ked the headmaster to swap your score with mine!”

Su Qianci was speechless. Indeed, she had not been very good at school previously. However, with the pressure from the Su family, she had worked very hard and stayed up all night for more than a month in her senior year. After the college entrance examination, she had immediately fallen ill. However, she still did not get into the ideal major according to the Su family’s requirement. That was why she had to compromise and go to the business management major of Kingstown University.

How come in Liu Anan’s mouth, she was using unfair means?

More and more people were gathering. Some of those people were recording the scene and uploading it to Weibo. Su Qianci was not nervous at all. Looking at Liu Anan, she said openly, “What about the proof? Since you are so certain, give us the proof. I am curious to know how I could sleep with the headmaster without myself knowing.”

“Proof? What proof do you need!” Liu Anan sneered. “The fact that you, such a bad student ended up in a famous college, is the best proof!”

“Oh, is that right?” A male voice stood out among the noise, sounding deep and mellow, followed by steady footsteps.

Chapter 22: President Li, Do You Know Her
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The tall figure came over against the light. He glanced at Liu Anan and then Su Qianci. Seeing her the outfit, his eyes lit up for a moment.

“President Li.”

“President Li.”

The shop assistants who were initially enjoying the drama immediately stood up when seeing the tall figure, their eyes lighting up with admiration, lust, and jealousy. It was a man that was almost like a god. As the youngest most eligible bachelor, Li Sicheng had always been very low-key.

Unexpectedly, this busy man came to this shopping mall under his name, to everyone’s surprise.

The mean look on Liu Anan’s face suddenly became affection. “President Li.”

“President Li.” Fu Lengbing looked at Li Sicheng who was wearing casual clothes with admiration. Obviously, Fu Lengbing was very excited to meet Li Sicheng.

Li Sicheng nodded, looked at his wristwatch and said calmly, “It has been more than twenty minutes already.”

He was talking to Su Qianci. Seeing that, everyone was shocked. It was hard to believe that the president would talk to this woman this way.

Liu Anan was dazed. Feeling frustrated, she walked up to Li Sicheng and said, “President Li, you know this woman?”

Li Sicheng glanced at her coldly.

“She has the worst character in the world. I suggest you stay away from her. She traded her body for a diploma in high school, and she is even worse now. Someone must have been providing for her. President Li, you grew up with my cousin, so I do not want you to be fooled by her.”

Seeing Liu Anan was giving Li Sicheng a warning, Su Qianci suddenly felt amused. If Liu Anan knew that the mistress she was talking about was the wife of Li Sicheng, how would she react? It must be very amusing.

Thinking of that, Su Qianci couldn’t help grinning, which made Liu Anan more upset. “Su Qianci, how dare you smile!”

“You’re the one who is humiliated. That’s why.” Su Qianci laughed, her pretty face without makeup extremely attractive.

Li Sicheng suddenly felt his throat tightened. For some reason, he thought of the stare she gave him when she was naked this morning and felt his mouth was dry.

“You must have lost your mind. You’re the one who is exposed in public, not me!”

“Oh, is that right?” Su Qianci seemed to be in a good mood. “Well, you can continue to believe that.”

Liu Anan was furious. The fact that Su Qianci did not care was even more upsetting.

“You…” Liu Anan wanted to say something else but was interrupted.

“Tang Mengying is your cousin?” Li Sicheng’s voice was incredibly charming. All the women present felt their heart racing.

Hearing he was addressing her, Liu Anan felt exhilarated, which showed on her face. He talked to her. He talked to her!

Chapter 23: How Could She Be Mrs. Li!

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


Liu Anan blushed and quickly nodded. “Yes! Brother Li, last year we met at your birthday party. I was wearing…”

She suddenly called Li Sicheng brother, which disgusted the man. Li Sicheng felt impatient and said, “Didn’t she tell you that I am married?”

Liu Anan was dazed and nodded. It was no secret that Li Sicheng was married. However, the wedding was very low-key, and the media did not even find out about the identity of his bride. How come he was suddenly bringing this up?

Liu Anan did not understand this man. However, it was exactly the mystery about him that was so fatally attractive to women. Feeling encouraged, Liu Anan stared at Li Sicheng with no shame. Her look was so full of lust that it was disgusting.

Li Sicheng was numb to this kind of look. However, he was suddenly reminded of the fact that Su Qianci had looked at him the same way a couple of days before. However, today…He finally understood what was different about Su Qianci.

Is she playing hard to get?

Throwing a glance at Su Qianci, Li Sicheng quickly looked elsewhere. “So, I do not believe it is smart to insult my wife in front of me.”

He looked calm, as if he was telling people about something ordinary. However, his words shocked everybody.

Liu Anan was the most shocked among all. She immediately yelled, “How is that possible? She is your wife?”

Fu Lengbing was also astonished, looking at Su Qianci incredulously. The Li family was the number one household in Kingstown! They had deep government connections. Among the three brothers in the family, only Li Sicheng chose to do business. However, every person in the family was elite.

Fu Lengbing knew very well how difficult it was to marry into this kind of family. Someone like Su Qianci… The Li family accepted her? Not just Liu Anan, even Fu Lengbing could not believe that.

However, Li Sicheng was admitting it himself!

“What? She is the wife of the president?” One of the shop assistants felt so incredulous that she could hardly stand up straight. The woman in such an ordinary outfit just now was the wife of the big boss!

“So, she is Mrs. Li!” One of the onlookers exclaimed, “I could tell that Mrs. Li was extraordinary. A mistress? Ha ha, a jealous woman is the most horrifying.”

“Exactly! That woman was so aggressive that I almost thought it was true. What a bitch!”

“Mrs. Li is so pretty that she and the president are the perfect match.”

“That’s right. However, who is the man standing next to that woman? Is he one of the Fu family?”

“I think he is. Is that woman his girlfriend?”

“No way. Such poor taste…”

The discussion was louder and louder. Fu Lengbing’s face became crimson and he moved farther from Liu Anan.

Liu Anan could not get over the shock. She had no idea that Fu Lengbing resented her at this point. Liu Anan looked at Su Qianci incredulously and said, “It is absolutely impossible. How come a woman like you could marry into the Li family? You must have done it in a nasty way. Yes, that must be it. Su Qianci, you are absolutely shameless!”

Chapter 24: Go Down Together

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


“What has happened? I heard someone was starting a fight here?” Some people in uniform walked over.

Su Qianci looked around, curled her lips and said, “Yes, officers. Someone is slandering me maliciously.”

Slander? In such hot weather, they came all the way here just for such a small matter?

However, when the police officer saw Li Sicheng, their looks suddenly changed. “Mr. Li.”

Seeing the police, Liu Anan was dazed and started to panic. “Su Qianci, you know very well whether I was telling the truth. Everything I said was true. You shameless woman. How dare you call the police?”

“All right, tell the police then,” Su Qianci said calmly. Her eyes were cold and she looked so fierce that everyone was looking at her. “I did not have extra time for this.”

“How dare you call the police! I am related to the Tang family. Brother Li, is my cousin not your best friend? How could you send her cousin to the police?” Liu Anan looked at Li Sicheng as if he was her savior, wishing that he would stop Su Qianci.

After all, Tang Mengying grew up with him! Everyone said that he and Tang Mengying would make the perfect match. They looked great together and grew up together. Both the Tang family and the Liu family thought that Li Sicheng would definitely marry Tang Mengying. Even if they had not become a couple, he must take into account the relationship, right?

However, Liu Anan obviously had underestimated how far Li Sicheng would go. The tall and glamorous figure ignored her words, looked at the wristwatch again and urged Su Qianci. “It is 1 o’clock.”

For everything Liu Anan said, there was no response at all. Full of frustration, Liu Anan continued to say, “Brother Li, even if you do not want to give my cousin face, you need to respect the Tang family. I am a cousin to them!”

Su Qianci felt pity. This was what would trigger Li Sicheng.

“You’re threatening me?” Li Sicheng looked up, his sharp eyes seizing Liu Anan.

Liu Anan felt frozen by that look, as if someone had poured a bucket of ice over her. “No, I…”

“Did Mr. Sun hire you to enjoy the show?” Li Sicheng asked the police, his voice was so cold that it made people shiver. The police officers immediately reacted and arrested Liu Anan.

“What is your relationship to the suspect?” An officer looked at Fu Lengbing.

“None.”

With such a brainless girlfriend, Fu Lengbing had been thoroughly humiliated. Obviously, Liu Anan had offended more than Su Qianci, but also the man behind Su Qianci. Fu Lengbing could not afford to cross such a man at the risk of his entire family! All he could do was to stay away from such an idiot as Liu Anan.

However, Liu Anan immediately smirked and cried, “He is my boyfriend! He told me everything I just said!”

Staying away from her? No way.

They were bound together and shall go down together.

Fu Lengbing cried, “Liu Anan, do not push it.”

Chapter 25: Sending Her to the Police

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


“Push it? Who is pushing it? Fu Lengbing, you coward!”

“He did not,” Su Qianci said. “You want him to go down with you? Liu Anan you are so f**ked up.”

Fu Lengbing was dazed. He did not expect Su Qianci to defend him, and he felt grateful. However, at the same time, he was proud of his own charm.

Su Qianci is still into him!

That’s right. He was her first love after all. Secretly pleased, Fu Lengbing looked at Su Qianci differently.

The policeman wrote something down and said, “Come with us anyway to make a statement.”

Fu Lengbing nodded. As long as he was not considered a part of this, then it was good.

“Go get the surveillance camera recording as the evidence. And are you willing to be the witness?” Su Qianci asked, and looked to the shop assistant that was talking to her.

“No problem. Absolutely. Rest assured, Mrs. Li. Everyone here could be your witness. This woman was slandering you and inventing stories.”

Seeing how things had changed, Liu Anan cried madly, “Su Qianci, how dare you treat me this way! My cousin will not let this go! The Tang family will not let this go!”

“Oh?” Su Qianci said calmly, “Then I will wait and see.”

Liu Anan was a nobody. She was sending Liu Anan to the police not only to avenge herself, but also to give Tang Mengying a slap on the face. Liu Anan was Tang Mengying’s cousin. And Su Qianci wanted to provoke her to challenge Tang Mengying officially.

Since Liu Anan had crossed Li Sicheng, she was doomed anyway. Very soon, Liu Anan was taken away. The crowd scattered as well. Li Sicheng and Su Qianci walked out of the shopping mall, speechless.

“Wait up, Su Qianci.” It was the voice of Fu Lengbing.

Su Qianci turned back and saw Fu Lengbing catching up, running. Seeing her pretty face, Fu Lengbing smiled. “Su Qianci, it has been so long. I can’t imagine that you had married.”

“I did not expect you to be with Liu Anan either,” Su Qianci said sarcastically.

Fu Lengbing looked embarrassed and cut to the chase. “Next month on the eighth, we will have a high school reunion. Please join us. I could not locate you before and now I can invite you.”

High school reunion?

Su Qianci remembered. In her previous lifetime, she had gone to the same reunion. The venue was in a six-star hotel, and she was invited by her so-called good friend. After she went, Liu Anan repeatedly targeted her. Because Su Qianci had a short temper, Liu Anan and Tang Mengying set her up and spread the rumor that Su Qianci had gone through plastic surgeries and sold her body for her diploma. She had been completely embarrassed. What was worse was that Li Sicheng had been brought to the same hotel by Tang Mengying, witnessing her embarrassment.

Chapter 26: He Wants to Kiss Her?

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


However, he had said nothing the entire time. It was as if he did not know her. He had been cold to the bones and completely indifferent. No one had known that she was his wife. And nobody had believed that she was slandered. The bad reputation had followed her for her entire lifetime after the reunion.

Because of that, she hated Tang Mengying to the bones. However, she had never hated Li Sicheng then. Now thinking back, this man was incredibly ruthless. Reminded of that, her lingering feelings for him disappeared completely.

This man was not someone she could handle. Instead of falling for him, she should set herself free as soon as possible. However, she did not expect that the host of the reunion, Fu Lengbing, would invite her to go.

Seeing her indifferent look, Fu Lengbing did not know what she was thinking and asked carefully, “Su Qianci?”

Su Qianci looked up, smiled and said, “Okay, I’ll be there.”

Fu Lengbing was overjoyed, “Great, I’ll contact you then.” Then he looked at the tall figure next to Su Qianci.

Su Qianci was nothing, but the man next to her was someone Fu Lengbing would like to get introduced to.

“If Mr. Li has time, please join us as well.” Fu Lengbing felt nervous saying that.

Since Mr. Li was so mysterious, Fu Lengbing was afraid that he would refuse.

Li Sicheng simply nodded. Fu Lengbing was relieved, feeling great. As long as he did not turn it down, there was hope. Fu Lengbing definitely wanted to be connected to Li Sicheng.

Back in the car, Li Sicheng took out a cigarette and started to smoke slowly.

The puff of white smoke surrounded Li Sicheng’s face, making his flawless face even more mysterious. His movements were so elegant, as if he were in a painting. Su Qianci knew very well that he was thinking about something.

Li Sicheng did not usually smoke. However, whenever he had something he could not figure out, he would light a cigarette and think. However, what was on his mind? Su Qianci felt that maybe it had something to do with her.

However, she suddenly felt like she was giving herself too much credit. She curled her lips out of self-mockery and saw Li Sicheng looking at her. His eyes were so deep.

Su Qianci felt something was off and asked insecurely, “What is it?”

Li Sicheng did not speak but held down the cigarette between his fingers and moved closer to Su Qianci. Su Qianci was even more nervous, cringing.

His eyes fixed on her face, Li Sicheng did not speak. However, he gradually looked down at her lips.

Feeling a bomb was dropped in her brain, Su Qianci suddenly blushed. She could not help thinking of the theory: when a man looked at the lips of a woman, he only wanted one thing, which was to kiss her!

Feeling blank, Su Qianci moved back, blushed, and closed her eyes.

Chapter 27: They Needed an Abortion

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


“Why?”

As the deep voice sounded next to her ear, Su Qianci felt her ears were pregnant and they needed an abortion. What was he asking?

Su Qianci looked up and saw Li Sicheng’s flawless face.

“You did not smile.”

Oh, so she should have smiled? Su Qianci did not understand that. Before she figured it out, Li Sicheng had sat up, eyes on his cigarette. Flicking the cigarette, Li Sicheng had another puff, looking mysterious.

Su Qianci felt even more confused.

This man… Why is he always so hard to understand?

Suddenly, Su Qianci thought of her previous lifetime. When she had just married him, she had felt like the luckiest woman on the planet. All the women in Kingstown were obsessed with this man, while she was the one who could approach him and become his wife.

Because of that mindset, whenever she had approached him, she could not stop herself from smiling. The happy smile and the amorous smile. However, she was no longer in love with him in this lifetime, so naturally, she had stopped smiling.

Su Qianci suddenly realized that she had not tried to mask herself in this lifetime. In her previous lifetime, it had taken her five years to turn herself from a wanton and ignorant girl into a mature lady, which was a painful process.

However, this change had happened overnight in this lifetime, which was suspicious. When Su Qianci was thinking about what she should say to explain it, Li Sicheng had already driven toward the Su family.

It had been a long wait for the Su family. Su Shanna sat on the couch, hungry and impatient. She pouted at a middle-aged man, “Dad, the stupid Su Qianci will not come. With her character, she would have come already if she wanted to. I bet she could not wait to brag that she is the wife of Li Sicheng. It would not take her so long. Let’s eat first?”

Su Zhengguo checked the time and it was one thirty, way past lunchtime. Looking gloomy, Su Zhengguo said to his wife, “Call them to ask.”

Mrs. Su nodded, and when she was about to dial, the doorbell rang. Su Shanna went to open the door and saw the tall man immediately. Her eyes lit up and she smiled sweetly. “Mr. Li, you’re finally here.”

It was not the first time she had seen this man. However, every time she saw him, she felt stunned. The man was like the moon in the sky, cold and elegant. All the women in the city were obsessed about him.

However…

“Cousin.” As Su Qianci’s figure appeared next to Li Sicheng, Su Shanna’s smile froze as she felt incredibly jealous. However, as much as she disliked Su Qianci, Su Shanna knew what to do, and let her in.

“Uncle, aunt,” Su Qianci called, walking gracefully and smiling sweetly.

Her demeanor was so perfect that she looked great next to Li Sicheng. As if her heart was clawed by a cat, Su Shanna felt so jealous that she was about to go mad.
