She had a splitting headache and her entire body ached.
The sound of splashing water came and went, echoing in her ears.
Ji Liunian frowned slightly as she felt the splitting headache. She moved slightly and her entire body felt like it had just gone through the wringer. Her body felt as if it was falling apart.
She opened her eyes in a daze. All she could see was a luxurious crystal lamp on the white ceiling. A breeze blew past as the light from the balcony reflected on the crystal lamp, dazzling and blinding her.
She closed her eyes again in discomfort.
Some fragmented scenes flashed in her mind, like a badly edited movie.
“Is this what you wanted? Drive her away… curry favor with my father, and marry into our family for money?” At the grand engagement dinner, Yu Yichen—who had just affirmed the marriage—grabbed her soft palm forcefully. He impatiently pushed a diamond ring onto her finger with brute force. His voice was glacial. “Fine, you shall know what it’s like to be engaged to me!”
In the next flashback… Under some flashlights, reporters had caught the scandalous news of Yu Yichen and a young model. He laughed sarcastically. “You’re asking about my fiancée? She’s very reasonable and sensible, and never asks about my private matters!”
The scene then changed to her father’s expectant gaze. “Liunian, you know that something has happened to my company. Without the Yu family’s help, our family is done for! You must marry into the Yu family without any hiccups. No matter what, you must become Yu Yichen’s wife. I’m begging you!”
A year ago, her father’s company had run into serious difficulties and was in dire need of cash.
The Ji and Yu families were long-time friends. She and Yu Yichen had known each other since they were young. Yu Yichen’s father—Yu Bolan—liked her very much. Because of this, she successfully got engaged to Yu Yichen and the company received the support of the Yu family.
There was still a month before her marriage to Yu Yichen. However, she was unwilling to marry into the Yu family, so she secretly found a job behind her family’s back.
The company she joined was a subsidiary of Ling Group. At the annual dinner, she was fervently plied with alcohol. As she could not hold her liquor well, she was soon three sheets to the wind. She vaguely remembered that she was helped out of the bar and then…
Feeling a little uncomfortable, she rolled over to the side and moved her legs slightly. A warm current slowly surged through her, instantly startling her!
Ji Liunian suddenly opened her eyes as if she had thought of something!
An unfamiliar ceiling… An unfamiliar apartment… And an unfamiliar bed… This was not her home!
She supported herself with both hands and was about to sit up from the bedsheets when her entire face turned pale!
As the silk blanket slid down, she saw her fair skin covered with mottled marks of varying shades of green and purple. Her waist was extremely sore, especially the mess below her lower abdomen…
An unfamiliar environment and an unfamiliar bed. Where was this place?
She hammered her head hard, and more scenes flashed past. His heavy breathing… Her gentle moans… And the handsome face that she vaguely saw…
Before regret had time to set in, the sound of water in the adjacent bathroom stopped. The glass door opened with a whoosh as a muscular figure walked out in steady steps, draped in a towel.
Her eyes were huge as saucers. This man was not her fiancé, Yu Yichen. She had stepped out!
