Chapter 1Chapter 001: Marrying the Tablet of Lu Hechen in Place of Another

Licheng Shen Family.

"Weilan, I have discussed with your dad, and you will take Shen Lu's place to marry Hechen's 'tablet'!"

Shen Weilan didn't expect to hear this sentence from her mother as soon as she walked in.

She was in a good mood, returning from the Embroidery Workshop at nine o'clock, planning to spend some quality time with her mother, but who could have anticipated...

A look of shock appeared on Weilan's fair face, and her eyes widened in astonishment.

She had never thought that her mother would propose such a condition.

Seeing Weilan silently standing there, Mrs. Shen's complexion wasn't very good. She paused before saying, "Weilan, now the Shen and Lu families are in peril. The secret of Hechen's unexpected death is on the verge of being exposed, and we urgently need a wedding to stabilize the plummeting stocks of both families! Only then will the Shen and Lu families remain stable!"

Weilan: "....."

The night was very dark.

The heart was even colder.

It sank into a frigid pool, completely encased in ice.

A crushing disappointment surged like a tide.

The brightly lit Shen family hall lacked any trace of warmth.

"Weilan!" Mrs. Shen, seeing that Shen Weilan didn't respond, couldn't help but call out.

Shen Weilan finally came back to her senses, her pale face devoid of anger, only numbness. She shook her head at her mother, "Shen Lu is Lu Hechen's fiancée!"

Meaning, she rejected this absurd proposition.

"Weilan, I'm not asking for your opinion!" said her mother, her tone growing more firm.

Shen Weilan tugged at the corners of her lips gently, lifting her head, her hair like silk cascading behind her, making her pale face stand out even more, isolated and fragile!

But her spine was straight, she wouldn't submit, "I don't agree!"

"If Shen Lu could marry, I wouldn't be asking you!"

"Mom, Lu Hechen is dead, and you are arranging a wedding ceremony that will never have a groom, it's just a temporary solution!"

Mrs. Shen was well aware of it, facing Weilan's clear eyes that seemed to see through everything, she felt guilty. She looked away, irritatedly saying, "Shen Lu is pregnant with another man's child. She has found happiness, we shouldn't hold her back!"

"So, you don't want to hold her back, but you want to hold me back?"

"A few years later, once things are stable, you can quietly leave and find someone else to marry!"

"Shen Lu already has a child, isn't that an even better prop? She can also find the child's father and get married after a few years!"

"Shen Weilan, you are the older sister, can't you be a little more aware of your duties as one?"

"Mom, nineteen years ago, you abandoned me; nineteen years later, you scheme against me; is this how you treat me, is it fair?"

Mrs. Shen became furious with embarrassment, "I'll tell you the truth, the marriage certificate has already been issued, you are already Lu Hechen's wife!"

Having said that, Mrs. Shen threw out a red marriage certificate—

The red booklet caused Weilan's heart to tighten, and her breath caught in her throat.

In disbelief, she took the red booklet and opened it.

A photo of her and Lu Hechen appeared!

In the photo, the man's sharp eyes were staring intently at her, those eyes, darker than the night, were like a deep well, mysterious and unfathomable, with no end in sight.

Weilan quickly averted her gaze, and Lu Hechen's face inadvertently flashed through her mind!

Lu Hechen, Licheng's renowned young master of the Lu Family, the executive CEO of the Lu Group, possessing vast wealth, thirty-five percent of the Lu Family's shares—by any standard, he was an excellent match!

But now, he was dead. Marrying his tablet, and at her own mother's request, was utterly preposterous!

"I will not marry!" Weilan shook her head.

"Weilan, just accept your fate!" Suddenly, a deep male voice came from the stairs.

Weilan looked up; it was her father Shen Tianming, who had already walked down the stairs.

Ha!

Such clear differentiation in affection!

Even if born of the same mother, it is still so.

Weilan has always been too naive, always holding out hope for her parents, only to be slapped in the face by reality now!

At this moment, she finally understood what it meant for the heart to turn to ashes!

Transmigrated Into The True Heiress

Eira Kingston, a feared assassin, never imagined that death would lead her to transmigrate into the body of Ephyra Allen, the disgraced first daughter of the once-powerful Allen family. But what shocked her even more was the soft mechanical voice in her mind, addressing her as "master" and informing her that her soul had returned to its original body. Eira dismissed the strange voice, thinking she was having a post-death hallucination. But waking up in a hospital, with memories that weren’t hers flooding back, she was forced to confront the truth. Ephyra’s life had been nothing short of a nightmare. Despite being the legitimate daughter, she was labeled a bastard, shunned by all, and overshadowed by her scheming stepsister, who had stolen the love of her father and her betrothed. To make matters worse, the wealth and status the Allen family enjoyed were all thanks to Ephyra’s late mother, and the only reason she hadn’t been discarded entirely was due to her mother’s inheritance, locked away until she turned eighteen. But Eira wasn’t one to be defeated by circumstances. If she was going to live Ephyra’s life, she would do so on her own terms. She would destroy those who had caused Ephyra pain, claim the inheritance that was rightfully hers, and find out who was behind her own death. Because if there was one thing Eira knew how to do well, it was to survive—and make her enemies pay. However, being a high-schooler with nothing to her name wasn’t enough. As Ephyra, she’s powerless, but as an assassin, she’s lethal. Still, even that wasn't enough until she became the contracted wife of Lyle Aelion—a powerful, enigmatic figure in the business world with a secret illness. And it turns out, the only thing that can relieve him is her scent.
