Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the past, when the butler working for the Jiang family had informed him and his mother that Lu Jingzhi had gone to the Jiang family mansion to look for Jiang Yuning, he did not believe what was said and had thought that the butler only said that to extort money from him. The butler told him to be careful not to allow Lu Jingzhi to s.n.a.t.c.h his fiancée away from him, but he could not be bothered because he barely seen Lu Jingzhi and Jiang Yuning interacting in the past. Furthermore, throughout all these years, Lu Jingzhi had never interacted much with Jiang Yuning but Lu Zongye suddenly realized that things had changed ever since he annulled his engagement to Jiang Yuning.

There was obviously much more interaction between Jiang Yuning and Lu Jingzhi.

Second brother had always cared about Jiang Yuning.

Both of them had already made things so obvious at he and Huo Yuxi’s wedding dinner. Now that he thought about it, he was a fool indeed.

Therefore, he decided that he would go and look for Lu Jingzhi as soon as he was done with matters involving Huo Yuxi. He was going to make things clear with Lu Jingzhi in exchange for his own freedom. After that, he would migrate somewhere where n.o.body knew him and he would start his life afresh…

He already knew that he no longer had the power to return to the life of a wealthy and prestigious family and he would not waste any more time provoking them.

…

That night, Jiang Yuning was sitting on the sofa in the bedroom as she looked at all the messages that she had received on her social media account.

After releasing the first issue of her short video t.i.tled , she had already gained an additional one million fans, and the young paparazzo had been extremely excited about it. Most of the netizens had joined the fan club out of their genuine love for traditional Chinese outfits. However, both Jiang Yuning and the young paparazzo were very aware that these newly gained fans may not necessarily remain loyal to her.

After Jiang Yuning’s short video began gaining popularity on the internet, many other young actresses started imitating Jiang Yuning as they also started posting their own short videos on the internet. Some of the actresses had even worn the traditional Chinese outfit with the dragon embroidered on it for their video.

Therefore, Jiang Yuning received many cute messages from her loyal fans.

[Sister Yuning, a lot of people have been imitating your style lately. I really hate it!]

[Sister Jiang Yuning, your short video is still the best because the effort and dedication that you have put into preparing the short video is obvious! I am looking forward to the next issue of your short videos.]

[The fans of those artistes who have tried to imitate your style and short videos actually dared to start an argument with me. They are so annoying!]

Jiang Yuning also decided to look at the short videos that the other artistes had posted on their social media. Some of them had even incorporated a short story into their video, just like Jiang Yuning did, and they had also gained quite a huge following. However, Jiang Yuning was confident that not everyone could look like her even if they tried.

Jiang Yuning decided to post something to appease her fans. @JiangJiangLovestheScenery: Today, I went to scout for the best location to shoot my next video. My dear videographer took the opportunity to take a few pictures of me. Does anyone want to see how I look?

The fans instantly went crazy as soon as they saw the photograph showing the back view of Jiang Yuning wearing the traditional Chinese outfit with the dragon embroidery on it.

[Oh my G.o.d. Jiang Yuning is so beautiful. I am about to cry.]

[Ah, sister! You really treat your fans so well. I am going to save this picture and use it as a screensaver for my phone.]

[I suddenly feel so envious of Sister Yuning’s boyfriend. Do you have a boyfriend, Sister Yuning? If you don’t have a boyfriend, why don’t you consider my brother?]

Boyfriend?

Oh, she did not only have a boyfriend but he was also the most qualified and eligible bachelor in the whole of Luo City.

[I have just recharged my energy! I can continue bickering with the other copycats’ fans now!]

Jiang Yuning felt warmth in her heart when she saw all the comments that had been posted by her fans to encourage and cheer her on. Even though she knew that her fans did not have the ability to defend or protect her at the moment, she was relieved because she could finally experience what it was like to be loved by the public. Moreover, she was certain that she would definitely have more loyal fans in the future.

However, in two days’ time, the Jiang family would be finally exposing the truth about Fu Yahui and what had caused the Jiang family to lose everything that they had. She hoped that this incident would not tarnish her reputation and make her lose her fans.

She had already arranged for a meeting with the Lu family lawyers tomorrow. Of course, she had arranged for this meeting after discussing the matter with Lu Jingzhi.

She had no choice. She had to fight for justice!

…

Early next morning, Lu Zongye accompanied the male escort that he had hired to the manor.

Although the male escort had left Huo Yuxi behind last night, the housekeeper in charge of the manor had informed him that Huo Yuxi had stayed on and slept in the master bedroom the previous night.

“She is inside,” the male escort named Carl informed Lu Zongye as soon as they arrived outside the master bedroom.

“You can go in first,” Lu Zongye said. “I believe that I do not need to teach you what to say.”

Carl pushed the bedroom door open and when he saw that Huo Yuxi was still fast asleep, he reached out his hand and patted her before saying, “Hey, Huo Yuxi. How can you still be sleeping at a time like this?”

Huo Yuxi opened her eyes and as soon as she saw her beloved boyfriend, she quickly held tightly onto him before saying, “Carl, please do not leave me ever again. I will move over here to live with you, okay?”

“Can you stop disgusting me?” Carl replied as he pushed Huo Yuxi away. “You are already dying and you are still trying to get married to me? I will tell you the truth now. Everything was all just a lie…I am not a rich or wealthy man. I do not have a lot of money and I do not even own this manor. In fact, someone spent three million yuan just to rent this manor for me to put on a show in front of you.”

“Carl, stop lying to me. Have you forgotten that you had even bought me a sports car?” Huo Yuxi asked in disbelief.

“To be honest, I am just an ordinary male escort working in a nightclub. On a regular day, my job is to serve and satisfy rich women who have the money to spend on my services. Someone paid me to act as a rich young man because he knew how desperate you are to marry into a rich and prestigious family. Are you really that desperate to marry into a rich family? You already have a terminal illness and you are still trying to get me to marry you. Are you really that stupid?”

“No…no…I know that you are just lying to me because you want to get rid of me.”

“What do I gain by lying to you? This is my official business card. I am also returning the manor because the rental ends today. Stop lying on the bed because someone else is going to use it after this. I cannot believe that you actually spent the night here when I cannot even bear to sleep in this expensive manor myself,” Carl said as he tossed his business card and the receipt for the manor rental directly in front of Huo Yuxi.

Huo Yuxi quickly grabbed Carl’s business card to confirm his ident.i.ty and she was devastated to discover that he really was just a male escort who worked in a nightclub. She was so shocked that she fell off the bed.

“Why did you lie to me? Why?”

“You have to get the answer from someone else,” Carl replied as he opened the door and allowed Lu Zongye to enter the room.

Huo Yuxi sat on the floor and she was shocked when she looked up and saw Lu Zongye standing right in front of her. “It’s you…”

“Yes, it’s me,” Lu Zongye replied.

He initially hated Huo Yuxi so much that he wanted her to suffer a fate worse than death. However, now that he was looking at the desperate expression on Huo Yuxi’s pale face as she sat on the floor, he suddenly felt a little sad.

“Did you plan all of this?” Huo Yuxi asked as she stared at Lu Zongye.

“Yes, I planned all of this. I did it because I wanted you to personally experience the pain and disappointment of not being able to marry into a rich and prestigious family. However, I have already been very kind to you. Fate is even more cruel. Huo Yuxi, you will never be able to marry into a rich and prestigious family anymore in this lifetime. This is because if you really want to live, you will have to remove your uterus…and no rich and prestigious family would accept a daughter-in-law who is unable to get pregnant and give birth to an heir,” Lu Zongye said as he squatted down and stared directly into Huo Yuxi’s eyes. “This is the price that you have to pay for fooling around with so many different men.”

Huo Yuxi kept crying uncontrollably, unable to believe that this was happening to her.

“I loved you and had given you my heart in the past, but from now on, Huo Yuxi, you are on your own. I hope that you enjoy the pain and suffering…that your terminal disease brings you.”
