“Don’t blame me. Who can tolerate their own wife being more powerful than them? Just like what others said, who knows how many men you’ve slept with in exchange for your current status and position? You’re too dirty.”

In a small courtyard in the suburbs.

The pale-faced woman was lying in a pool of blood. Her wrist was held tightly by the man and her lower body was bleeding profusely.

The man who was her husband was agitated and his fingers were trembling. His eyes were red as he grabbed Xia Sheng’s hand crazily. With her blood, he pressed it against the ‘Property Succession Book’ without hesitation. He threw her away as though she was rubbish and smiled happily.

Xia Sheng lay on the ground and stared at the sky. This was the man she had chosen. For him, she did not hesitate to run away from her own home and eloped with him. She had suffered so much to earn her current status.

In the end, she got a ‘dirty’ word from him.

“Money is more important to you… than me… is it?” Xia Sheng was barely breathing as tears rolled down her cheeks. Was it worth it to do so much for him?

Unfortunately, before the man could answer, a group of people barged in and interrupted him.

“Which f*cking bastard did this? I haven’t even tortured this b*tch properly, and she’s already about to die?! When you sold me the information, I said I wanted her alive!” It was a bearded man with a loud voice.

“This… I didn’t know they were so ruthless. Look, she’s not completely dead yet. Make do with it.”

Xia Sheng shuddered and finally reacted. She struggled to look at her husband whom she had loved for years. “You betrayed me?” The pain in her chest rushed out and suffocated her throat. Xia Sheng screamed in pain, “Why!”

“You’re still asking why? Your husband isn’t simple. In order to get the money in your hands, he was so determined to kill you and sold your information to several people. I paid the least and ranked last.” The bearded man spat. “Little b*tch, you don’t remember me, do you? Because of your words, all my products were destroyed because they didn’t meet the requirements. Today, I’ll make you pay for this!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the bearded man viciously slit Xia Sheng’s throat with the dagger in his hand.

Xia Sheng glared at her husband as blood gushed out of her mouth. Her eyes were bloodshot, but under the circumstances of extreme regret and hatred, she smiled. “I won’t let you off even if I become a ghost.” She finished silently and swallowed her last breath. At the end of her consciousness, Xia Sheng seemed to hear the sound of someone breaking in.

When she regained consciousness, she saw an extremely strange scene.

She saw ‘herself’ lying on the ground with a white cloth covering her neck. In front of her, a man in a suit was kneeling on one knee. His features were clear and distinct, just like a sculpture by an artist. It was angular and perfect. His tall and slender body cast a shadow on her body. Although he did not make a sound, he gave off an invisible sense of oppression. His well-proportioned and slender hand was holding a handkerchief and wiping the blood off her face.

“Young Master, this woman is your archenemy. She’s always going against you. You should let her die here!”

Xia Sheng was shocked. This handsome man was Huo Ye? The crippled big boss that she almost married seven years ago? But no matter how you looked at it, he didn’t look like a disabled person!

“I never knew she was so good-looking.” The moment Huo Ye opened his mouth, both of them were shocked.

Xia Sheng was speechless. Was this an occasion to discuss her good looks? Did this man fall in love with her corpse at first sight?

Huo Ye’s assistant didn’t look any better than Xia Sheng. He was also afraid that his young master had his eyes on Xia Sheng’s… corpse.

He looked at Huo Ye and said, “Young Master, she’s dead.”

“What a pity.” Huo Ye’s fair fingers covered Xia Sheng’s eyes as he said in a hoarse voice, “An opponent who can match me in strength ended up like this.”

Huo Ye was shocked when he found out that his nemesis was his fiancée. He rushed over when he found out that she had been tricked. But he did not manage to make it in time. Huo Ye’s eyes dimmed as an indescribable sense of emptiness surged in his heart. “Go buy a burial ground with good feng shui.”

The assistant understood what he meant and couldn’t help but say, “Young Master, it’s not like she doesn’t have a family. Can’t you just send her body back to her family?”

Huo Ye frowned and glanced coldly at his assistant. “I told you to go.” As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up Xia Sheng’s body in the dust and he did not feel dirty by that at all.

Xia Sheng wanted to follow him. She had just taken a step when everything turned black.

…

“Hey, stop sleeping. Hurry and get up. There’s something important to do later!” The shrill female voice woke Xia Sheng up.

Xia Sheng endured the dizziness and opened her eyes, only to see an unfamiliar room. There was a woman standing in front of the bed that was unfamiliar yet familiar.

Seeing that she had woken up, the woman rolled her eyes and said impatiently, “Hurry up and get up. Miss has already gone to the Huo Family. Pack up and go over.”

“What Miss? What do you mean by the Huo family?” Xia Sheng was confused. Wasn’t she dead?

“What are you pretending for? Miss spent money to buy you so that she could give you to Huo Ye. A cripple still wants to marry our Miss. He should see if he’s worthy!”

Xia Sheng was shocked. She grabbed the woman and asked in a trembling voice, “This is the An family?”

The woman cried out in pain before shaking her off. “Nonsense! If it’s not the An family, then it’s your family is it?”

After getting the answer she wanted, Xia Sheng was extremely excited. She was reborn. She was reborn to seven years ago.

Seven years ago, when the eldest daughter of the An family found out that her fiance was disabled, she forced Huo Ye to end the engagement. She even spent money to buy Xia Sheng to let her marry Huo Ye. The An family should be causing trouble at Huo Ye’s house right now, right?

Xia Sheng suddenly remembered what Huo Ye had said to her ‘corpse’. No matter what, Huo Ye was her benefactor. To prevent him from growing crooked in the future, she had to save him! Thinking of this, Xia Sheng rushed to the Huo Family’s house.

As expected, by the time she arrived, the Huo Family was already in chaos. Huo Ye, who was in a wheelchair, was surrounded in the middle. His clear eyes and handsome features looked even more depressed.

Even though he was sitting in the wheelchair, his back was still straight and he carried a sense of pride and stubbornness.

Xia Sheng took a deep breath, took out the loudspeaker she bought on the way here and shouted, “Huo Ye! I like you!”
