Since Ye Lan got together with Qian Chengfeng, she has moved into an apartment under Qian Chengfeng's name.
The living room of this apartment is spacious and bright, with a dazzling crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling.
The living room features a soft leather sofa and an elegant coffee table, with a thick wool carpet covering the floor.
The apartment's bedroom was furnished to be extremely comfortable, with a luxurious, soft bed and high-quality silk bedding that felt delicate and smooth to the touch.
The bedroom also features a huge floor-to-ceiling window, offering a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery outside.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a complete set of kitchen utensils, with a granite countertop as smooth as a mirror and exquisite cabinets.
The bathroom is even more luxurious, with an oversized bathtub, a rain shower, and a smart toilet.
Although this place is slightly inferior to Ye Lan's former home or her post-marital residence, Ye Lan feels deeply satisfied at this moment.
Since my family fell into poverty, those so-called close friends from the past have all disappeared and avoided me like the plague.
Even Huo Nanchu, who was her boyfriend at the time, was very indifferent. With no other options, I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure—drugging him.
Given his consistent character, he will inevitably be forced to marry me in the end.
However, things didn't go as planned, and a sudden turn of events caused the situation to spiral out of control: I mistakenly entered someone else's room and had physical intimacy with that man.
They originally planned to part ways from then on, as if nothing had ever happened.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Ming confessed that he had admired me for a long time and earnestly begged me to take on the responsibility.
With constant pressure and urging from my family back home, I finally had no choice but to go with Zheng Ming across the ocean to a foreign land.
At first, our married life was quite happy and harmonious, but as time went by, I was shocked to discover that Zheng Ming already had a wife and two children in the United States.
At that time, I was all alone in a foreign country—the United States—with no relatives or friends to rely on.
Not only that, my relatives back home were also eyeing my already meager wallet like hungry wolves, hoping to get a share of it.
Faced with such a difficult situation, I really had no other choice but to grit my teeth and persevere.
However, not long ago, I accidentally discovered that the person who was once very close to me had already made a will, but I was not mentioned at all in it.
Upon hearing this news, I felt as if I had been struck by lightning; anger and disappointment filled my heart.
So I went to Zheng Ming to argue and debate, but in the end it was all in vain.
Disheartened, I decided to quietly embark on my journey back to China.
Not long after returning to China, I unexpectedly discovered that I was pregnant.
This sudden turn of events caught me completely off guard, but after I calmed down, I realized that it might also be a rare opportunity to get everything back on track.
The key is that I must hold onto this child tightly and use him to form a marriage alliance with Huo Nanchu, so that I can reclaim what rightfully belongs to me.
From my childhood, my family had high hopes for me and carefully cultivated me as a future top socialite.
Therefore, I strive for perfection in every aspect.
In order to have the opportunity to get close to the heirs of wealthy families, I studied at the most prestigious universities from a young age. In this environment, I naturally got to know many scions of wealthy families.
Huo Nanchu, on the other hand, is the ideal partner that I have carefully selected.
In terms of family background, moral character, talent, appearance, temperament, and personal charm, he far surpasses his peers.
We've played together since we were little; you could say we're childhood sweethearts.
When I graduated from university, I confessed my feelings to Huo Nanchu in front of everyone, and as expected, he readily agreed.
In fact, I knew very well that under those circumstances, he would not have humiliated me because of the many witnesses around us.
I know he doesn't have any romantic feelings for me, he only sees me as a childhood friend, but I don't care. All I want is the position of the young mistress of the Huo family.
However, life is unpredictable. A sudden change occurred in the family, and all the beautiful dreams vanished in an instant, and the carefully planned future was completely disrupted.
What surprised me even more was that Zhao Qiuying and Huo Jinxin, who used to like me, now treat me like strangers and avoid me, which makes it impossible for me to get close to Huo Nanchu.
At that moment, fate brought me together with Qian Chengfeng.
At first, I mistakenly thought he was truly in love with me, but as time went on, the truth gradually came to light—it turned out that he was just trying to use me to get close to Huo Nanchu and achieve some unknown purpose.
Although I saw through his ulterior motives, I did not feel too sad.
After all, becoming the young mistress of the Huo family was my original pursuit, and now with his help, it can be said that I have killed two birds with one stone and gotten what I wanted.
Such mutual benefit is not necessarily a bad thing.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Ming suddenly came to visit today.
Just as we were arguing, I accidentally shoved him. To my surprise, his head hit the coffee table hard and he fell to the ground.
In an instant, I was terrified and at a loss for what to do. I didn’t even notice Qian Chengfeng entering the room.
Neither of us was moved by Zheng Ming's plea for help; we chose to stand by and watch.
In the end, it was Qian Chengfeng who stepped forward to give me advice, suggesting that we could frame Huo Nanchu, and he also vowed to keep the secret for me.
Although she couldn't marry Huo Nanchu as she wished, getting rid of the bizarre and troublesome Zheng Ming was still a good thing.
In addition, Qian Chengfeng promised to pay me a large sum of money after the matter was completed, ensuring that I would have no worries about my future life.
