In the damp and gloomy basement, Gu Xiaoyue hid in a corner.

In addition to the cold, most of the pain came from his body.

The brutal beating and flogging had left her with almost no intact body parts.

"Pa ~ ~"

A marriage certificate was thrown on her face. Her boyfriend and sister, who had been dating for six years, snuggled together, smiling sweetly.

The circle of steel in the picture was as painful as if it had been imprinted on her heart.

"Sister, Hao and I are getting married, so we came to tell you the good news." Gu Ruiling's face revealed an expression of schadenfreude.

"Heh, in order for me to obediently marry that sickly, you can think of any method."

Gu Xiaoyue hugged herself tightly, but her body continued to get colder and colder, as if she had fallen into an icy cavern.

The sight of love on the marriage certificate made her sick.

Resisting the pain in her heart, she lifted her head and squeezed out a few words. "Why?"

Hee Wenhao, the man she had loved for six years, had given up on everything between them so easily.

"You look so poor, why would Hao fall for you?" Gu Ruiling was extremely pleased with herself.

"Gu Xiaoyue, you don't know what's good for you! No matter what, Ling Family is still a top family in H city. Being able to marry him is completely up to you, and you might not even know if you're lucky or not. "

"Is that so? Then why don't you marry? "

Gu Xiaoyue was originally a poor girl, her mother was sick in bed, and just as she was feeling lonely, a man suddenly appeared, claiming that he was her father, wanting to give her the best living.

Who would have thought that this was all a scam! And she was only a chess piece.

There was a sickness in the Ling Family that required joy. Old Man Gu couldn't bear to marry his own young mistress, so he found an illegitimate daughter to replace her.

Thinking of this, the hatred in Gu Xiaoyue's heart grew even stronger.

"Sister is confused, Hao and I are getting married tonight, how can we marry back to Master Young Master Ling?" As he spoke, his lips curled up into a sneer. The provocative look in his eyes was heavy.

Unable to hold back the anger in her heart any longer, Gu Xiaoyue strode forward and extended her hand out towards Gu Ruiling.

However, it was easily pushed aside by Gu Ruiling and fell heavily onto the ground.

Before he could react, a crisp sound was heard, followed by a burning pain on his face.

She stubbornly raised her head and looked at her 'younger sister' who had just slapped her.

"I advise you to agree to this marriage as soon as possible so that you don't have to suffer this physical pain again."

The door slammed shut, and a deathly silence followed.

Gu Xiaoyue lowered her head and trembled, and then laughed out loud, her smile was sinister and terrifying, tears could not help but trickle down from the corners of her eyes.

From the beginning to end, in their eyes, she, Gu Xiaoyue, was just a clown.

She was unwilling. What had she done wrong? They had to do this to her.

She would make them pay a thousand times the price, considering the Gu Family, which had framed them, and Hee Wenhao, who had fallen in love with them for six years yet had betrayed them.

She had to live well!

After standing up and looking back, Gu Xiaoyue looked at the place where the red light was shining. Her lips moved, but no sound came out. "I agree, you don't need to lock me up."

The person behind the camera could read her lips and immediately sent someone to bring her out.

The Gu family couldn't wait to set a date for their wedding. Ten days later, the wedding would be held as scheduled.

Ling Family was the strongest family in H City. If the successor of the family marries, it was destined to be a century-long wedding.

Sure enough, as soon as they got out of the luxurious wedding car, numerous reporters swarmed over, holding their long guns in their hands.

There were layers upon layers of luxury cars in front of the hotel, so many that not even a drop of water could trickle through.

How luxurious!

Looking at this scene, the corner of her mouth revealed a hint of bitterness. She walked into the hotel through the tunnel created by the host's bodyguard.

When she saw Hee Wenhao's smiling face in the guest seating, she felt extremely sarcastic.

Hee Wenhao, just you wait, there will be a day when you beg me.

Today, she was going to be a proud white swan. Even if she was pretending, she was still a worthy protagonist.

Step by step, the green and red carpet soon arrived in front of the altar.

She stood very straight, waiting for the wedding hero to arrive.

However, as time passed, the male lead still did not appear.

"Some people really think they are. It's such a pity that this Young Master Ling doesn't think much of them …"

It was unknown who among the crowd brazenly ridiculed, but the crowd echoed. The clamor grew louder and louder, and the gazes that sized him up became even more unrestrained.

Gu Xiaoyue took a deep breath and took the microphone.

"I am truly sorry, but something has happened to Ru Feng today. He is temporarily unable to come and has delayed everyone's time. Here, I apologize to everyone on his behalf."

These words were spoken in a natural manner without any hesitation. He bowed deeply and then left the stage in an elegant manner.

The scene gradually calmed down. No one spoke any more words of ridicule or even a few traces of admiration.

This newly appointed Young Mistress of the Ling Family was also not as bad as they had imagined.

No matter how lively and luxurious a wedding was, without a groom, it wouldn't take long.

Gu Xiaoyue sat alone in the shadows, quietly watching the scene as it slowly faded away, she only felt her entire body turning cold.

Although she said it was pretty, the groom didn't even show his face at the wedding. As a woman, how could she not mind?

As she was thinking, a shadow fell over her head and a tall figure stood in front of her.
