Yesterday, Lin Wan and her boyfriend were still like a pair of love birds, went shopping and watched a movie together! Today, however, her boyfriend dumped her and was about to marry another girl for benefits. Coincidentally, that girl had a boyfriend abroad, a hot billionaire called Huo Jinnan. Feeling betrayed, Huo Jinnan decided to marry Lin Wan, who was also betrayed by her love. To make Lin Wan his, he gave Lin Wan's family millions, which was all went to Lin Wan's stepmother's pocket... And according to the contract, since Huo Jinnan and Lin Wan got married, the Huo would pay 2,000 a month to Lin Wan, and whenever Huo Jinnan wanted to divorce, Lin Wan must agree unconditionally. A year later, Huo Jinnan met his wife and found her so cute. Meanwhile, Lin Wan thought that her husband would never come back to her country and decided to find a new guy...
The temperature was excessively high in July. Lin Wan wore a pair of jeans, with a red and pink short-sleeved T-shirt. Not only did she look hot, but also her curving figure was covered up.
With the burning sun in the sky, Lin Wan walked with a pair of canvas shoes, powerful. Even if the passers-by looked at her as if she were a lunatic, she totally ignored that!
In front of a European-style villa, when Lin Wan was just about to press the doorbell, a car approached. By the time she turned around, the car had stopped in front of her. The gorgeous woman in the front passenger seat caught her eyes!
Before she could see the woman clearly, Sheng Juenian got out of the car.
The tall figure came to her side before she came back to her senses. His indifferent face made her a little flustered.
His hand landed on her arm with warmth, which made Lin Wan tremble a little.
Sheng Juenian's eyes deepened a little, as if it was hard to tell, but he asked, "Lin Wan? Why are you here?"
Lin Wan pointed at the woman who was sitting on her passenger seat and asked, "Who is she?"
"Lin Wan!" Sheng Juenian furrowed his thick, black eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Go back first."
"Is that true?" Lin Wan's words sounded like she was about to cry. "Are you really getting engaged to someone else?"
"Lin Wan..."
"Why?!" Lin Wan tried to hold back. "Why am I the last one to know about it?"
Yesterday, they, still like a pair of love birds, went shopping, ate, and watched a movie together!
"Lin Wan, I can't do anything about it. This is organised by the families."
A family marriage?! She wanted to ask if he really loved the woman?!
However, a voice coming from the car interrupted her.
"Juenian, hurry up! It's so hot!" The woman in the car poked half her head out. Her voice was crisp and soft, but it was full of impatience!
"Right away." Sheng Juenian gently responded, but turned back to Lin Wan with a cold face and said, "Yes! I'm getting engaged, and the wedding will be on the 8th of next month."
Lin Wan's heart felt like it was going to explode. Before she could recover, Sheng Juenian continued, "So, don't come anymore. My wife-to-be will be unhappy. For me... I don't like you pestering me."
Pestering? Lin Wan suddenly thought of the moments when Sheng Juenian cuddled with her! It was precisely because Sheng Juenian was always so passionate that she fell in love with him deeply.
Sheng Juenian's handsome face suddenly became out of shape in Lin Wan's eyes.
"You think too much. I am here just for an answer. I am relieved to have heard from you in person! This is the end!" It took a long time for Lin Wan to speak out all these.
"Hoop!"
When the horn of the car was heard, the purple carved gate was opened. Sheng Juenian got back to the car.
The car passed by her and entered into the compound in a gust of wind. With a 'bang' sound, her heart was broken.
......
On the other side of the ocean, a man standing in front of the window was looking up at the sky.
It was at sunset, and a faint golden light shot down diagonally. The man's back was shrouded in a layer of fog, a mysterious and cold aura surrounding him.
The assistant behind him reported, "Miss Yi will get engaged next Tuesday and get married on the eighth of next month. Her husband-to-be is the Sheng's young master."
Veins stood up on the back of his hands. After a while, he said, "Get me a suitable woman. I gotta get married."
The assistant was stunned for a moment; then he quickly replied, "Lin Jianye's eldest daughter is 22 years old. She is a junior student and looks pretty. But... she is Sheng Juenian's girlfriend. Oh, ex-girlfriend."
"Let me take her!"
......
After the phone rang more than a hundred times, Lin Wan returned home.
"Oh, dear! Why are you late? I am so anxious!" The smile on Dou Yun's face was even brighter than the flowers in the garden, which confused Lin Wan.
Since she had been dumped by Sheng Juenian, Dou Yun should have scolded her. But why was she so solicitous?
"Auntie, I'm sorry, my cell phone switched off because of low battery..."
"Come on! Never mind, haha." Dou Yun laughed even harder. She pulled Lin Wan to her side and caressed Lin Wan's little hands, "My dear, I heard that you broke up with Sheng Juenian. Don't be sad - I've got you a better one!"
"Auntie, I don't want to..."
"Come on, my dear." Dou Yun quickly interrupted, "There are so many good men in the world. Since Sheng Juenian doesn't want you, get yourself another man and piss him off!"
"He isn't worth my anger. And I wanna be responsible for myself."
"Pa!" Suddenly, Dou Yun raised her hand and slapped on Lin Wan, "Don't be so shameless! Don't pretend to be innocent! I've already promised them and they have paid me a million! If you can afford it, do whatever you want!"
Lin Wan's face was slapped to the side with a buzz in her mind! It turned out that she was sold by her stepmother! This was what Dou Yun really was!
"Calm down. Why did you slap her?" Lin Jianye came over and looked at Lin Wan with a little guilt in his eyes.
"She deserves it!" Dou Yun scolded Lin Wan as she pointed at her outfit. "Look at you, be a lady, okay? No wonder Young Master Sheng had dumped you!"
This was exactly why Dou Yun was angry!
If she could marry Sheng Juenian, Dou Yun would have received more than one million!
"You're not qualified to be picky! You're lucky enough to have been bought by a man!" Dou Yun hugged herself with arms, her raised face turning purple with anger. It seemed that she had lost a lot!
With her moisturising eyes, Lin Wan held back her tears and ignored Dou Yun. She looked at her father and asked, "Dad, is that what you think?"
Lin Jianye wriggled the corner of his mouth and said, "Your husband-to-be is Huo Jin'nan, Huo Tiancheng's son. He will take the power sooner or later. I heard that he is handsome and young. While our company is stuck by budgets..."
Lin Wan interrupted her father's words, "Are you exchanging me for money?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lin Jianye moved his eyes away. "Your mother's sickness can't be delayed anymore!"
"Hah—" Lin Wan sneered. That sarcasm was like a heavy punch which smashed into Lin Jianye's heart.
