Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“You!” Xu Wen wanted to say something, but she was stopped by the girl who came with her.
The girl always wore a duckbill cap and a mask, making it difficult to see her face. She shook her head at Xu Wen and whispered, “You are the future Mrs. Gu.
Don’t let them see a joke.”
“But Yingying, didn’t you see what Song Fan did just now?” Xu Wen angrily pointed at the girl’s shoulder. “What were you doing? Weren’t you supposed to be here today to help me strategize? When something happened, you hid. Why come out now? You’re just an ugly monster who can’t show your face. I can’t believe I chose you as my assistant. Even a dog knows how to protect its owner, but you’re worse than a dog!”
The nearby staff members couldn’t stand it anymore, but the girl named Yingying didn’t argue. She kept her head down, even when pushed back repeatedly. Softly, she said, “If you want Gu Chen, you can’t continue like this.”
Xu Wen was not willing to give up. As the heiress of the Xu family, the sole successor, why should Gu Chen treat her like this?
Three bodyguards had already surrounded them, but due to her status, no one dared to make a move. However, they couldn’t let her approach either.
Yingying pulled her aside and said quietly, “Acting like this will only make Song Fan appear noble and steady. Do you want everyone to think she’s more suitable to be Mrs. Gu than you?”
Upon hearing this, Xu Wen calmed down. When she came, her parents had warned her many times to change her spoiled temper. Gu Chen had seen all kinds of women over the years. If she continued to be stubborn, she would push him away sooner or later.
Upon taking a deep breath, she glared at Yingying, “Fine, for the sake of you.
Let’s go.”
She pointed at the people from the Gu Group and said, “You all wait for me!
When I become Mrs. Gu, you’ll be done!”
The staff members exchanged knowing glances, their eyes filled with disdain.
If their boss chose this woman, the Gu Group would be in big trouble!
Even when Xu Wen returned to the car, she didn’t calm down. Upon seeing Yingying still wearing a hat and mask, she became even more annoyed. She went up and directly pulled down Yingying’s mask. “You even know that you look hideous and can’t be seen, huh? Hmph! I don’t know what use you have.
You didn’t even protect me just now!”
Yingying tried to cover her face with her bangs, attempting to hide the scar on her left cheek. Half of her face had completely decayed, and the wound appeared bright red with some rotting flesh around it. The unpleasant smell mixed with the scent of decay and blood. However, the right half of her face still resembled the missing person, Song Yin.
When she was rescued by the mysterious person, there was no scar on her face. Although the Song family had tortured her, they hadn’t harmed her face.
However, the mysterious person deliberately injured her face with a special curved knife and applied poison to the wounds. The wounds wouldn’t heal easily, and the smell of the poison was masked by the stench of rotting flesh and blood. No one could detect the poison on her body.
This was the mysterious person’s gift to her, allowing her, a poisonous person, to get close to Xu Wen. She constantly tried to please Xu Wen, become her assistant, help her eliminate Song Fan, and eventually make Xu Wen seriously ill. Then, she could take Xu Wen’s place.
Song Yin lowered her head, hiding the malice in her eyes. She had endured humiliation to get close to Xu Wen, showcasing Xu Wen’s beauty and kindness with her ugliness. In addition to the mysterious person telling her Xu Wen’s preferences, she quickly became Xu Wen’s assistant.
To poison Xu Wen, she needed to repeatedly apply poison to her wounds and then drink the antidote sent by the mysterious person to survive. In addition to the physical pain, she had to endure Xu Wen’s insults every day.
She endured all of this for revenge. She wanted to become superior, to change her fate. She changed her name to Yingying, meaning to win, vowing not to let her life fail so miserably again..
