Chapter 4: An Unfavorable Start

"You're not." Sheng Hanyu's face was expressionless, his tone icy yet very certain.

Shi Youxuan was still immersed in the wonderful fantasy of gaining freedom and hadn't come back to her senses, she casually asked, "What?"

Sheng Hanyu emitted a powerful and frigid aura, yet his voice was quite plain, "The woman who was supposed to meet me for the blind date isn't you, you're an imposter."

Shi Youxuan waved her hand in front of his eyes, "Can you see?"

"The scent of the perfume is wrong, and so is the voice. Who are you?"

After Sheng Hanyu gave his answer, he suddenly grabbed her wrist tightly.

She felt her wrist was about to break—suddenly, she burst out crying, "Ow! It hurts, it hurts, you villain, let me go, you big bully..."

Tears smeared her pretty little face, and the sprite-like girl transformed dramatically, crying and wailing without regard for her image.

Sheng Hanyu let go of her, turned around, and left, not forgetting to close the door behind him.

...

In the study.

"Investigate this woman immediately, I want to know all her detailed information."

Sheng Hanyu tossed the big red book he had been holding against his chest onto the table, his face expressionless and indifferent, but the aura he emitted was so cold that it involuntarily made the bodyguards shiver.

"Yes."

The bodyguard picked up the marriage certificate and quietly left.

"Bang!"

Sheng Hanyu smashed his fist on the table, his expression dark enough to wring water from, daring to scheme against him?

This woman and the Shi family are courting death.

There was nothing he hated more in his life than being schemed against, not one!

Soon, the bodyguard reappeared in the study, respectfully saying, "Eldest Young Master, the investigation is clear. The Shi family has two young ladies. The one who met you for the blind date was the elder young lady, Mrs. Sheng is the second young lady..." The bodyguard's voice got lower and lower, he stopped without finishing.

"Go on."

"Yes."

The bodyguard swallowed hard, "The, the second young lady is mentally challenged."

"Oh?"

Sheng Hanyu's eyebrows slightly raised, he did not allow his subordinates further action, nor did he think about sending the person back.

A mentally challenged woman being married off as a stand-in? This debt would be noted on the Shi family's account, to be settled later.

However, if the elder young lady wished to marry, it would likely not be easy!

In the bridal chamber, the woman had already curled up on the bed "asleep," her breathing was steady, tears still marked her face, "tears" had carved channels across her cheeks.

Her eyeliner and mascara were smeared, blotting a dark patch at the edge of her eyelids.

"Mrs. Sheng, please wake up." Aunt Zhang entered the room, frowning at the sight of her.

Is this the Mrs. Sheng that the old master chose for the Eldest Young Master?

She doesn't look very smart!

Although there were many women willing to marry the Eldest Young Master, though Aunt Zhang didn't understand why the old master chose this person, once someone was brought into the house, it wasn't her place as a housekeeper to criticize.

Shi Youxuan was "deeply asleep," and despite Aunt Zhang calling her several times, she did not wake up.

"Mrs. Sheng, it's time to eat." The last call did the trick, and like a reflex, Shi Youxuan "popped" up from the bed, "Okay."

Under the strong advice of the housekeeper, she washed her face and hands before sitting down at the dining table.

Sheng Hanyu sat opposite, the meal was lavish, but Shi Youxuan's manners were far from graceful, not using chopsticks and instead eating with her hands, her wolfish devouring made the housekeeper frown from across the table.

"Mrs. Sheng, please be more graceful."

Shi Youxuan stood up, wiping her greasy hands carelessly on her body, "I'm full now, I want to go back to my room to sleep." With that, she walked away with a swagger…

However, she walked in the wrong direction.

The housekeeper called out from behind, "Mrs. Sheng, you are going the wrong way, that's the kitchen."

Thus, Shi Youxuan turned and walked outside…

"Mrs. Sheng, that's outside." The housekeeper hurried after her, no longer daring to let her walk on her own, and led her back to her room.
