1 How it all begin

She use to live with her parents. However, they abandoned her when she was five. They sold her to a slave market. But the slave market kicked her out when she was seven. She now lives in between the pipes of the metro, underground. It's quite a narrow passage and a real maze. She's 21 or so did she thought. She doesn't have any friends except for the stray dogs that live near her.

Her name, Chen Lifen.

............................

My life was never good. In fact, you might consider me as the bottom 10%. I know nothing. The only thing I do know is that I have to collect my dose of medicines now. Funny how I need to eat pills when I don't even know what am I suffering from. I mean, I do act like a normal human being. Right? Here I am, near a dark alley. This place is a black market. Shady things happen around here. They sell illegal drugs, weapons and surprisingly, my medicine is fabricated here too. All I know is that after taking the pills, I feel woozy. Maybe some drinks will help me feel better.

Refusing one proposal after the other. All these old foxes know is to swindle money out of major companies.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

"Hello?"

"Son! When are you coming back home?" asked my mom.

" Soon mother. Soon. I still need to work!" I answered.

" Oh, the Ming family came to visit. You remember? The socialite queen!"

" Ok, got it. I will be back in 30 minutes." I sighed. Again, a blind date. How much as it been now? 5? 10? Since I celebrated my birthday as 27 years old, she's been pushing me to meet women from the other families. Tsk, all they're interested in is the benefit of marrying into my family. Alright better get going before I get an earful from mother.
