The Adopted Daughter Marries the Wealthiest Man After Being Abandoned

The banquet venue's noisy corridor couldn't hide the moans.

"Lin Xu, do you love my sister?"

"Little vixen, is there a need to ask? How can she compare to you?"

"…"

Kong Zhao, who was about to knock on the door and enter, listened to the conversation inside with disbelief.

This voice, this conversation…

Although she was on the verge of a mental breakdown, Kong Zhao still slowly raised her trembling hand and pushed open the door.

The sound of the door opening made the couple who were hugging each other inside pause at the same time and look at the door.

In an instant, the three of them were stunned. The disbelief in Kong Zhao's eyes turned into anger.

The lovers in front of her were none other than her boyfriend, Lin Xu, and her sister, Kong Rong! In an instant, Kong Zhao felt as if all the strength in her body had been sucked away. She wanted to run away, but she had no strength. Her feet seemed to be nailed to the ground and she couldn't move.

"What… what are you two doing? Because of the shock, Kong Zhao stammered.

"Kong Zhao, this was just an accident. Can you forgive me? She seduced me. You know I love you!" The man held Kong Zhao's hand and apologized.

This man who had apologized to her but slept with her sister was her boyfriend who had pursued her for three years.

Kong Zhao pulled her hand away with disgust.

"I don't want to hear this. Let's break up!" Kong Zhao severed the relationship between the two of them.

"Sister, since you've discovered us, we won't hide anything anymore. I'm pregnant with Lin Xu's child."

Kong Zhao raised her hand and pointed at Kong Rong. Her clear eyes were already bloodshot. "Kong Rong, you have a fiancé, Cheng Fang! Even if you're not afraid of embarrassing the Kong family, you should at least consider Cheng Fang's reputation, right?"

Kong Rong seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world. She raised her head and laughed arrogantly. Her lips curled up in disdain. "Do you really think I'll marry a good-for-nothing poor illegitimate child?"

Kong Zhao exhaled slowly. "I want to talk to Mom and Dad."

"Dad and Mom are not at home now. Go outside and wait." Kong Rong got up from the bed and put on her clothes. She looked at Kong Zhao with disdain and sneered. She was just an adopted daughter. Why was she pretending to be so noble?

Kong Zhao slowly walked out of the room that was suffocating her. She walked to the living room and sat on the sofa. She was not in the mood to deal with this scandal. She returned to borrow money.

Mrs. Li had a kidney disease and needed a large sum of money for the surgery, so she had no choice but to return to this house. She didn't expect to see such a farce.

Kong Rong looked at Kong Zhao, who was sitting on the sofa, and sneered. She took out her phone and made a call. "Mom, things went exceptionally smoothly. I didn't expect Kong Zhao to suddenly come home and see Lin Xu and me… Well, I'll leave the rest to you."

After a while, an exquisitely dressed lady appeared at the door.

She was wearing a custom-made cheongsam that fitted her figure perfectly. It didn't look like she was in her forties at all. Instead, she looked like a noble lady in her early thirties.

She was Kong Zhao's adoptive mother, Kong Rong's mother—Sheng Rou.

Sheng Rou looked at Kong Zhao and smiled. "You're back, Zhao Zhao. Coincidentally, I have something to tell you. Come up first."

Kong Zhao was silent. She went upstairs and followed her to the big balcony on the second floor.

The balcony was very big. There was a small coffee table and a chair. Sheng Rou smiled at her and said, "Sit."

Kong Zhao sat down and asked after the other party sat down, "Why are you looking for me?"

Sheng Rou still had a faint smile on her face. "The Cheng family is urging you to get married as soon as possible. However, Xiao Rong is already pregnant. I want you to marry Cheng Fang on behalf of your sister."

"Although Cheng Fang is an illegitimate child, the Cheng family doesn't mistreat him. After you marry him, you will be the Third Young Madam of the Cheng family…"

Kong Zhao clenched her fists and interrupted her before she could finish. "It's better for my sister to go. He's her fiancé, so it's not suitable for me to snatch him from her."

When Sheng Rou heard this, her lips curled into a mocking smile. "I'm afraid Cheng Fang won't achieve anything in his lifetime. He's just an illegitimate child. Everything in the Cheng family will belong to his elder brother sooner or later. How can my daughter marry such a useless person? I heard that Mrs. Li needs a lot of medical fees every month. If the money isn't paid in time…"

Sensing the threat in her words, Kong Zhao looked at her in disbelief. "Sheng Rou! That's a life! Mrs. Li has been working hard for the Kong family all these years. Even if she didn't make great contributions, at least she worked hard, right?"

"So what if it's a human life? Do you really think I raised you for nothing?" Sheng Rou sneered. "To tell you the truth, right from the beginning, I raised you for the sake of letting you marry into the Cheng family. It's just that Cheng Fang disrupted my plans. If he wasn't an illegitimate child, do you think an orphan like you would be qualified to marry into the Cheng family?"

"As an orphan, you're lucky to be able to marry an illegitimate child. The Cheng family will be here in three days. As long as you marry him on behalf of Rongrong, Mrs. Li's medical fees will be transferred immediately. Otherwise… you'll have to think about the consequences carefully." Sheng Rou stood up and left.

Kong Zhao felt a chill down her spine.

She couldn't believe that her mother, who had always ignored her and let Mrs. Li raise her, would threaten her with Mrs. Li's life today.

She walked out of the Kong family's house. Rain was still pouring outside.

Kong Zhao arrived at the parking lot in the rain. She laid in the driver's seat and cried for a long time.

When she returned to the small house, Kong Zhao was already dizzy with a fever.

In her delirious state, her mind was filled with memories of her childhood.

When she was punished when she was young, Mrs. Li protected her.

She definitely couldn't let anything happen to Mrs. Li!
