“Yunxi, things are getting chaotic outside. It’s not safe for you to stay in Shanghai. Come with me. When we get to Hong Kong, we’ll get married, okay?” Lu Minghua held her slender hand tenderly, tightening his grip. “Yunxi, in this life, I only want to marry you. Come with me.”
Ruan Yunxi's pupils contracted slightly; she hadn't expected her to awaken at this moment.
The man in front of her, who kept saying he only wanted to marry her, didn't tell her a single truth.
fraud!
Scumbag!
He's lying; the only person he wants to marry is Ning Zhenzhen.
He said he married her only to seize the entire Ruan family's wealth, which amounted to hundreds of millions.
If I hadn't suddenly realized the plot and discovered that I was a tragic female supporting character in a historical novel where both the male and female leads transmigrated, I would have almost been fooled by Lu Minghua.
In the novel, Ruan Yunxi is cheated out of her money and her virtue by the scumbag in front of her, and eventually ends up in Kowloon City, becoming a lowly and humble woman who is bullied by everyone.
How could she, a young lady from a prestigious Shanghai family, with her parents' assets worth hundreds of millions, possibly have fallen to that level?
"Yunxi, to put your mind at ease, I'm giving you the jade bracelet that's only passed down to the granddaughter-in-law of the Lu family. Could you give me your jade gourd as a token of our love?"
Looking at the man before her, so full of affection, who was even trying to trick her into giving him her ancestral gourd with a fake bracelet, Ruan Yunxi laughed: "You really only want to marry me?"
Lu Minghua raised his hand and swore: "It is absolutely true. In this life, I, Lu Minghua, only wish to marry Ruan Yunxi. If I break this vow, may I be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!"
If it weren't for the novel's plot, Ruan Yunxi would almost have believed his feigned sincerity.
Ruan Yunxi twitched the corners of her mouth; now was not the time to tear off the mask of civility.
In the novel, the scumbag and the bitch ruined themselves so badly. He wanted to take advantage of her family's wealth and swindle her out of all her assets. Once he got tired of her, he kicked her aside and sent her to such a filthy place to fend for herself.
They, however, squeezed into the upper echelons of Hong Kong society, thriving and enjoying a life of luxury.
When she was reborn, she was unrecognizable, suffering from a terrible disease, and had no trace of the noble demeanor of a capitalist's daughter. How could Ruan Yunxi not hold a grudge?
"Okay, I believe you!" Ruan Yunxi pretended to be touched.
Lu Minghua's eyes flashed: "That... jade gourd?"
Ruan Yunxi naturally wouldn't give him the jade gourd, as it was their family's heirloom gourd: "Granny Hua, please keep it for me. You can come and get it when she returns."
Lu Minghua became anxious: "How can you let her keep something so important?"
“Granny Hua took care of me since I was little, she’s trustworthy.” Not wanting to get entangled with that scumbag any longer, Ruan Yunxi dismissed her: “I’m a little tired, I want to rest for a bit. Don’t you have to pick up your cousin from school? Go ahead and do your work!”
Seeing her tired expression, and knowing he couldn't get the jade gourd right away, Lu Minghua had no choice but to give up. He pretended to give her a few words of advice, then walked out of the Ruan family's luxurious mansion. Looking at the imposing mansion, Lu Minghua curled his lips, knowing that this grand mansion would soon belong to him, Lu Minghua.
Ruan Yunxi stood behind the window, looking at Lu Minghua's smug smile, and narrowed her eyes.
After confirming that Lu Minghua had left on his bicycle, Ruan Yunxi immediately opened the safe in her room, took out the jade gourd hidden inside, and without saying a word, following the plot of the awakened novel, pricked her index finger with sharp scissors, squeezed out a drop of blood, and smeared it on the jade gourd.
As a current surged through her mind, Ruan Yunxi found herself in a blank space, with nothing but her.
Ruan Yunxi knew that this was the gourd-shaped material storage space described in the novel, which was her family's heirloom. However, Ning Zhenzhen, the transmigrator, found out about it and made Lu Minghua determined to steal her gourd space to store supplies and family property.
The items stored in the gourd space are unknown to and cannot be taken out by anyone other than the owner who has signed the blood oath with them.
How could such a wonderful gourd-shaped space be allowed to fall into Ning Zhenzhen's lap?
