The sun shines into the room.Gu Yanxi opens her eyes and, with a wooden face, stares at the ceiling for a long time.
She moves her body slowly. Thepain all over the body serves as the evidence for her whole-night struggling.
She hadno tear even with waves of anguish last night. But at this moment, she covers her face with her hands, shivering in this empty room. Tears flood her eyes.She whimpers like a poor little cub.
Five years ago, Gu Yanxi was 15 years, young and beautiful, just like a tiny delicate bloom with dews;Huo Yichen was 20 years old, a milkman in her school.
They met at the school canteen every day, and Gu Yanxi smiledto him every time he deliveredmilkto her.
One day, Huo Yichen pulled up all his socks and said, “Gu Yanxi, would you marry me when you grow up?”
Looking at his faded pants washed hundreds of times, Gu Yanxi was little shocked,“With what?”
Huo Yichen clenched his fists, “I will work hard.”
On these words, Gu Yanxi smiled, “You need to earn many bride-price to get my father’s consent.”
Gu Zi’an took her away, “No need to talk with a milkman.”
Gu Yanxi went away arm in arm with Gu Zi’an, “He said he wouldmarry me when I grow up. How ridiculous!”
“Gu Yanxi, in five years, you will be willing to marry me.”
Huo Yichen made anoath that day.
Gu Yanxi cries out of her breath. Fortune knocks once at every man’s door. The pride princess falls down to the bottom of valley, while the milkman strikes back.
She searched Huo Yichen on her phone the day she left Nightking. She found that he is so well-known to everyone except her.
From Baidu, she learnt that Huo Yichen is the leader both in financial and cultural communities. He, temperamental as he is, is favored by numerouswomen. He was in other citiesand just moved to Jingzhou to run business one month ago.
Gu Yanxi- the pride princess comes down in the world.
Huo Yichen- the poor boy becomesa ruler of this world.
Huo Yichen serves asa God when Gu Yanxi has her back to the wall. He has fulfilled his promise and married her.
Not for love, but for humiliation.
Gu Yanxi tires of crying eventually. She gets up and findsa box of Yuting onthe bedside table. The contraceptive pill is just likea loud slap on her face. She, staringat the pill for quite a while, takes out one pill and swallows it without water.
She goes to take a shower with her painful body. The bruised blue-black in the mirror brings back her memories of last night.
She goes to the dressing room after bath. What she sees is three walls’ of wardrobes filled with famous clothes, shoes and handbags with labels on. Huo Yichen is affordable to prepare best for Gu Yanxi.
Gu Yanxi knows clearly his scheme-this is his revenge for the humiliation five years ago..
She takes one set of clothes and makes up to conceal her inflamed eyes. She ties her hair up, takes one designerLV handbag and puts ona pairof French-brand limited-editionheels.
It’s good to know that tears are bitter. Don’t cry, the bad guys will laugh.
Gu Yanxi says to herself, “Gu Yanxi, your waist and back should bestraight and upright, and your head should be lifted. Don’t bow your head, otherwise the crown will fall. I am Gu Yanxi, a forever princessin the eyes of my father.”
In the hospital, Gu Yanxi sits before the bed, looking at her father who is sleeping.She works at a smile and says, “Dad, I got married. His name is Huo Yichen, a very famous man. He takes care of me very well.Our house looks like a palace. The wardrobeis filled with beautifulclothes and shoesspecially designed for me.”
Gu Yanxi takes some water to wash her father’sface, “Dad, wake up till you have enough sleep. You can continue sleeping if you still feel tired. I am not a child any more. I have grown up. I will take everything back belongingto us. Gu Zi’an and Liu Manman will pay for this.”
“Yeah, How dare the woman is! Your plan will be endedin vain, idiot. ” A mystifying voice comes from outside.Gu Yanxi, even with no need to turn back, knows that’s Liu Manman.
Gu Yanxi turns around with her murderouseyes, “Get out.”
Liu Manman, a little scared of her eyes, turns around, “Who wants to stay here? With a half-dead man?”
Gu Yanxi closes the door gently.
To Gu Yanxi’ssurprise, Liu Manman is waiting for her outside to make trouble for her. Seeing Gu Yanxi out, Liu Manman winks over, swinging her lips with a bitter tone, “Gu Yanxi, how’s that feeling to be a pauper? Being treated with disdain, you must love these clothes from flea market!”
Liu Manman fiddles with her hair to expose her diamond on her neck. The finger ring is just the one Gu Zi’an put on Gu Yanxi’sfinger at the wedding. After that, Gu Zi’an said that the ring and necklace are too big for her, so he took all these from her. But now, all these belong to Liu Manman.
Gu Yanxi wants to laugh at that moment. Gu Zi’an rackets his brains to take all valuable ornaments to trouble her.
While, what Gu Zi’an did not expect was that Huo Yichen has found Gu Yanxi.
“Liu Manman, have you heard‘Pauper will never be a king even with imperial robe’?You are mean and cheap.No matter what you wear, you can never cover up your true nature.” Gu Yanxi says coldly.
Liu Manman, with her scar beingexposed.says with a gloomy face,“Gu Yanxi, you’re just sour grapes.”
“I am sour grapes? My dress is the latestdesign of French designer KL, and the fabric is the most extravagant in Europe. How ridiculous! Even if you are wearing my clothes, carrying my handbags, and puttingon my necklace and my finger ring, you cannot hide your bitch nature,ignorance and impudencetolose no time in humiliating me.” Gu Yanxi snorts.
Liu Manmanisso embarrassed, with her face flushing. Shejust wants to show off and see Gu Yanxi’sjokes, but what she received is her squib.
“Bull shit!How could you buy such expensive clothes?We have closed Gu’s house, andall your jewelry and clothes belong to me now. All themoney in your creditcards has been transferred to us and even the medical expense of your father is in arrears. How could you have money? ”
Gu Yanxi shows anenchanting smile, “Liu Manman, you steal everything but me. I just to wave my gusset and men will bringme money one after another. Do you have suchability?”
