"The groom is here to pick up the bride!" someone shouted downstairs at the Lin residence, their voice full of joy.
Downstairs, there was a commotion. The Lin family members, following local customs, formed a human wall to block Xu Chengzhi's path as he came to pick up the bride. Everyone reached out and clamored for red envelopes to share in the joy.
Upstairs, however, there was a deathly silence; Lin Yang couldn't feign the joy of her impending marriage.
If we didn't know the original owner's fate, if we didn't know Xu Chengzhi's true nature, if...
Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs," so this wedding, while filled with joy for many, ultimately left Lin Yang alone with sadness and loneliness.
"Mom..." Lin Yang still didn't grant Ms. Song's wish to become a grandmother, her voice trembling with sobs as she lowered her head, "I'll die... Do you know that I'll die?"
Looking up, her eyes were already brimming with tears, and the corners of her eyes were red. Who wouldn't feel sorry for her?
Ms. Song was taken aback, and a complex mix of emotions welled up inside her.
Staring at Lin Yang, whose tears were streaming down her face, Ms. Song finally closed her eyes, left a sentence, and turned to leave, "Airi, touch up your makeup."
She simply thought Lin Yang was being immature. In any case, in Ms. Song's heart, the Lin family's centuries-old legacy was ultimately more important.
The makeup artist from Airi, who was waiting at the door, did not leave. With her assistant carrying the makeup bag, they went back into the room.
Ms. Song left, but the security guards in black did not.
If Lin Yang makes any unusual move, the rope in their hands will immediately fall mercilessly onto her.
They were tied up tightly, perhaps to add some fun to Xu Chengzhi and to make the bindings look a little more attractive.
In any case, Lin Yang can't escape it.
The marriage between the Lin and Xu families was a cause for celebration throughout the city.
Only Lin Yang, dressed in her wedding gown, was still sobbing and muttering to herself, "I'm going to die..."
Tears ruined her makeup, and Airi touched it up again and again.
Until Xu Chengzhi, having broken free of the human wall, knocked on the door.
"Yangyang, I've come to pick you up." The man outside the door spoke with undisguised tenderness.
Ai Rui, who was touching up Lin Yang's makeup in the mirror, looked on with envy.
"Get out!! I won't marry him!" Lin Yang's eyes were blurry with tears, her five fingers slowly clenched, her nails digging into her palm.
All the high-end cosmetics on the dressing table in front of her were smashed to the ground with a venting of anger by Lin Yang's hand, leaving the place in ruins.
The gentler the person outside the door, the more irritable Lin Yang becomes inside the room.
She stood up and shoved the makeup artists, telling them to leave.
As for the security guards in black, she knew she couldn't get rid of them, so she simply ignored them.
"Bang—" The door slammed shut.
The person outside was turned away, but didn't make a scene. Instead, they patiently knocked gently on the dark door. "Yangyang, can I come in? Let's talk this over?"
"I don't want to talk to you! Divorce, stop the wedding! Then we'll be even and have nothing to do with each other anymore!" Lin Yang covered her ears and said these words cruelly.
“Yangyang…” Xu Chengzhi was still speaking outside the door, but his voice gradually faded away.
Lin Yang simply covered her ears, but then everything went black before her eyes, and that familiar feeling pulled her into another world.
She knew that the damn system that had disappeared for more than half a month and caused her to fall into this predicament was finally about to reappear.
The discomfort gradually subsided, and Lin Yang opened her eyes.
Sure enough, it was still pitch black.
"Host 001, long time no see." A cold, mechanical voice slowly rang out, reaching her ears from every corner.
"Stop with the pleasantries, just tell me, what's the mission?" Lin Yang was too lazy to be polite and went straight to the point.
