The Beginning

"Get out! Get out of this house, you slut! You're such a disgrace to the Lin Family!" a man in his forties angrily said.

"Baobei, please be lenient. It's my fault that I failed to teach her what's right and what's wrong." a woman wearing extravagant clothes while sobbing without tears falling down her face. What a vile woman who's acting can even contend Jennifer Lawrence for an Oscar nomination. But of course, the man is too stupid to even notice it.

"Daiyu, it's not your fault. Please, don't cry." The man quickly consoled her in his embrace.

'I almost vomit at this hideous act. This man, Lin Mu, should be my father, a father who does not even see me as his daughter. He used to pamper me when my mom was still alive. But when my mother died, he changed and I didn't understand why because I was still four years old at that time.

And when I turned five, he brought along a woman with two kids, a little boy who is older than me and a little girl who has the same age as me. The 'love' he used to show me was given to them. I badly wanted that attention since I lost my mother at a young age. I was longing for the warmth of a father but as time goes by he no longer sees me as his daughter. He eventually married the woman and I became their slave.

I was seven when I asked them to let me go but they never did. I didn't understand why they don't want to when they always cursed me for eating and staying in the house for free. Until I turned ten, I accidentally learned his greedy desire for the inheritance my mother gave to me. My mother was from an aristocratic family but she betrayed her family to marry that man.

But what did she get in return? Fake love to lure her in. But I guess my mother was still smart to not include my father in her deed.

Today, I turned eighteen and was supposed to get married. I guess I am being disowned because I am being a disgrace to the family that I was not even aware I was part of. I was 'caught' having an 'affair' with a wild man and lost my chastity the night before I get married to my fiance.

Yes, today is my birthday and also my supposed wedding day. Lin Mu is using this wedding to get the inheritance. But his plan failed. He miscalculated his daughter's stupidity. Not me, but my step-sister, Lin Ling. She is in love with my fiance, Fang Liqin, the young master of the Fang family who owns the Fang Entertainment Group. And Lin Mu, of course, doesn't know that.

I was already aware of their secret rendezvous and I too wish for this marriage to not happen but one should not underestimate a woman's jealousy. I want to end this marriage but not in this way. I don't mind losing my reputation but my chastity, at least I should have enjoyed my first or have it with the person I love, right? But alas, why? Why do they have to take everything from me? I was being quiet and patient enough by turning a blind eye to their evil deeds.

But not anymore, I'm too tired of their evil schemes for money and power. I'll take back everything that should have been mine and I, Lin Yingyue, will show them what being a devil really means.
