Chapter 1_1
"Little beauty, enjoy tonight to the fullest, for this is the surprise your mom and dad have prepared for you!"
In the darkness, the sleazy man forcefully grabbed Rong Shengsheng's hair and impatiently tore at her clothes.
Rong Shengsheng struggled with all her might, her voice uncontrollably trembling, "No, don't..."
"Don't? It's not up to you!"
The man became even more aggressive, his hands erratically roaming over her body, causing Rong Shengsheng's stomach to churn.
Suppressing the nausea, her fingers fumbled around by her side, and suddenly she touched something cold and hard. In the midst of her panic, Rong Shengsheng grabbed the object beside her and smashed it hard.
"Bang!"
Blood flowed down from the man's head, and Rong Shengsheng was stunned.
Hastily she threw away the wine bottle in her hand and fled out the door.
Along the way, tears flew wildly.
She kept organizing the fragments of these days in her mind.
She had been fostered in the countryside by the Rong family since she was young. Yesterday, folks from the Rong family suddenly came to take her back; her parents kept apologizing, crying, and kneeling, saying they were sorry to her, that they would cherish her like the apple of their eye from now on, begging her to come home.
They then booked this private room, preparing to welcome her home and clean away the dust of travel.
She thought that she finally had a family, but never expected that... her biological parents simply intended to send her to a man's bed!!
Painful tears slid down her cheeks as she ran aimlessly through the strange nightclub, not knowing where to go.
Suddenly, a hand reached out from the darkness and dragged her into a pitch-black room.
The man was like a wounded beast, his breath dangerous and scorching. He kissed her on the lips, his voice low and hoarse, "Help me, and I'll marry you."
Rong Shengsheng was pinned down on the bed, the man pressing down upon her, she was unable to move, like a fish on a cutting board at the mercy of others, her eyes filled with despair...
A night of entanglement.
Rong Shengsheng was already exhausted and slept deeply.
The dim light in the private room came on, and the man stood by the bed, neatly dressed, with his impressive height of nearly six feet two, and an extraordinary demeanor. He glanced over at Rong Shengsheng.
"Rong Wanwan?"
Beijing's number one beauty.
He had seen her a few times before, but didn't feel much. Whether it was because of the lighting or the drugs in his system not yet worn off, the woman in front of him stirred his heart.
Noticing the woman's long, dense lashes wet with glistening tears, her forehead painfully furrowed, his heart was slightly touched. He reached out a hand to wipe away her tears.
Afterward, he got up, closed the door, and took one last unwilling glance at the woman's back where there was a black birthmark shaped like a crescent moon or a sickle.
Rong Family.
"Why hasn't Rong Shengsheng come back yet? Nothing bad could have happened, could it?"
Rong Zhonghai was so anxious he was spinning in circles, as restless as an ant on a hot pan.
Rong Wanwan, dressed in gold and silver, with eyes brimming with triumph, laughed so hard she couldn't close her mouth, "Dad, don't panic. The country bumpkin replaced me to sleep with President Zhang. She probably hasn't woken up yet, hahaha."
She and Rong Shengsheng were twin sisters, looking exactly alike. Regrettably, Rong Shengsheng was unlucky; born with an ugly birthmark on her back, a fortune-teller deemed it inauspicious, and fearing it would bring misfortune, the Rong family sent Rong Shengsheng away to the countryside.
She grew up beautiful and pretty, with all the men in Beijing sprawling at her feet.
Recently, the Rong family accidentally offended President Zhang, who demanded she sleep with him for one night; otherwise, he would make sure the Rong family paid dearly.
How could she be willing to sleep with a greasy old man?!
Out of desperation, the family decided they could only bring Rong Shengsheng back from the countryside.
Rong Zhonghai also lamented, "Yeah, that disaster star finally has some use! Not in vain did I spare her life like a dog's."
At that moment, the front door of the Rong family opened.
A man in neat attire entered, the assistant to the eldest heir of Li family, Li Hanxian— Zhou Kuan.
Rong Zhonghai was so frightened that he almost wet his pants and quickly came forward to ask, "Assistant Zhou, what brings you here?"
Young Master Li asked me to deliver the betrothal gifts and to come to marry the Miss Rong. Congratulations."
Upon hearing this, Rong Zhonghai's eyes widened with surprise, his voice trembling with excitement, "Young Master Li... why all of a sudden... wants to marry my daughter?"
"Miss Rong saved Young Master Li at the Charm Color nightclub. It's his promise to her."
After Zhou Kuan had the boxes of lavish betrothal gifts delivered, he left with his entourage.
Rong Wanwan, hiding in a corner eavesdropping, her eyes shone brightly. No longer able to contain her excitement, she greedily looked at these betrothal gifts, "I'm going to be the Young Mistress of the Li Family!! Hahahaha!"
The Li family was powerful in Beijing, and Li Hanxian was truly like a crown prince—handsome, gentle, and courteous, the secret crush of countless girls.
She had always had a crush on Li Hanxian, but alas, Li Hanxian had never shown any interest in her.
Now... he was going to marry her...
Rong Zhonghai, however, was not so happy but rather puzzled as he scratched his sparse hair, asking, "When did you save Li Hanxian??"
"Dad, are you dumb? Didn't Rong Shengsheng go to the Charm Color nightclub last night?? It must have been her who saved Young Master Li, and he thought it was me!!"
After all, Rong Shengsheng had just returned to Beijing yesterday; nobody knew her, nobody recognized her.
This great windfall... had actually landed in her lap!
Rong Zhonghai immediately had an epiphany and slapped his forehead, "I see, so the disaster star is actually useful."
Rong Wanwan's eyes were cold, and she said viciously, "From now on, I am the lifesaver of Li Hanxian."
"What about Rong Shengsheng?"
"Let her disappear completely."
