Chapter 1
"Brother-sister incest is really a moral decline..."
"Lin Ran actually seduced her own stepbrother. Such a lowly bastard deserves to be thrown into a pig cage."
"Chen Garden has a century-old reputation. If Madam Shen were still alive, how could such a scandal happen?"
No, that's not the case. She and her second brother are innocent.
Lin Ran was trembling all over and tried desperately to explain, but she couldn't utter a word.
There was a commotion among the crowd.
The man walked slowly towards them like a god, his handsome face as cold as ice, his tone devoid of emotion: "From now on, both of you will be expelled from Chen Garden and will never be allowed to return."
......
"Ma'am, where are you going in Half Moon Mountain?"
Lin Ran suddenly woke up from a nightmare, covered in cold sweat.
She actually fell asleep in the taxi.
Just now, she had that nightmare again, dreaming about the night she was kicked out of Chen Garden seven years ago.
After so many years, she never thought that she would return to the place where the nightmare began.
In April, Hong Kong was gloomy and rainy, making people feel a little depressed.
"Go to Chen Garden." Lin Ran said hoarsely.
"Chen Garden? That's the ancestral home of the Shen family, Hong Kong's wealthiest family. It's been listed as a cultural heritage site and truly a century-old aristocratic family. I've been driving a sports car for over 20 years, but this is the first time I've seen someone taking a taxi to Chen Garden on Half Moon Mountain."
The driver saw that she was dressed simply, had delicate features, and when she lowered her head, a small widow's peak was exposed on her forehead. She looked cold and distant, and was so stunningly beautiful that he couldn't help but take a second look.
Lin Ran looked out the car window.
If possible, she never wants to come back here in her life.
The next second, there was a loud "bang" and a huge impact force came.
Lin Ran lost his balance, his ears were buzzing, and he hit his head on the handlebar of the front seat, his face turning pale with pain.
The driver was so frightened that he stammered, "Chased, rear-ended a luxury car."
Cheers came from the back of the car from young men and women.
"Well done, such a broken car actually dares to block the road, hahaha..."
"You're really asking for your own life... If someone hits you, you have to pay! The Shen family has plenty of money."
Several luxury cars whizzed past, and the Maybach that crashed into the car even lowered its window in a demonstrative manner, gave a smug middle finger, then stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Lin Ran was dizzy from the collision, but she recognized at a glance that the person driving the Maybach was her former nemesis, the illegitimate daughter of the Shen family, Shen Zhi.
When Lin Ran, the adopted daughter, lived with her mother in Shen Garden, Chen Zhi was crying while clinging to the door of Shen Garden, as she was not even qualified to enter Shen Garden.
Therefore, Shen Zhi has always been against her since childhood.
Later she was driven out of Chen Garden, and heard that Chen Zhi was adopted back.
Things in the world are unpredictable, that's just how it is.
"Is driving a luxury car so great?" The driver was so angry that he was shaking all over, but he just cursed, thought he was unlucky, got out of the car, and called the police.
Those people are obviously from wealthy families. They can crash into luxury cars worth tens of millions at will. You really can't afford to mess with them.
Lin Ran was silent. The Shen family of Hong Kong was indeed not to be trifled with.
She had offended one, and for that, she had paid a terrible price.
It was getting dark, and at this time, there was no taxi available halfway up the mountain.
Lin Ran looked at the remaining distance, dragged her suitcase, and walked to the top of the mountain in the drizzle.
It took two hours to reach Chen Garden.
The housekeeper came to open the door, saw her face clearly, and said in shock: "Fifth Miss? Why are you back?"
Back then, Lin Ran was kicked out of Chen Garden for seducing the second young master, causing a huge uproar.
I didn't expect that he is so bold now and actually dares to come back secretly.
If the young master knew...
The housekeeper couldn't help but sweat.
Lin Ran was soaked to the skin, her hands and feet were frozen stiff, and she said in a hoarse voice, "I'm looking for Ms. Lin."
Her biological mother, Lin Ruolan.
There is only one mistress in Chen Garden, Shen Jinghan’s deceased mother, and the rest are mistresses...Lin Ruolan is one of them.
The housekeeper didn't dare to let her in on his own initiative.
"Please wait a moment. I will ask for instructions."
After hanging up the phone, the housekeeper took her in.
Walking through the lush garden courtyard, looking at the red azaleas blown to the ground by the rain, Lin Ran felt a little dazed.
Her favorite thing to do was to pick rhododendrons in the garden, dry the flowers, and then make paintings.
She had just started learning painting at that time and picked out the best one to give to Shen Jinghan. He glanced at it disdainfully and said, "Ugly."
It turns out that from then on, everything has a traceable path.
He didn't like her paintings, nor did he like her.
She was naive and foolish, unable to read people's expressions. She thought the cold and noble man was too lonely because he kept to himself, so she often secretly gave him gifts.
So, everything that happened afterwards was her own fault.
Lin Ran came to her senses and saw that the side hall of the villa was brightly lit and bustling with activity.
Chen Zhizheng was drinking and singing with a group of friends.
Seeing the housekeeper bring a young woman in, Shen Zhi's eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost.
"Lin Ran?"
The side hall suddenly became quiet.
A group of people turned around and saw that Lin Ran was soaked all over, with her long wet hair casually tied up, revealing her small face the size of a palm.
Her skin is as white as snow, and her almond eyes are as black as grapes. People who see her feel moist in their hearts, as if they have seen the deepest green forest.
There was a flash of surprise in everyone's eyes.
"Who was I thinking? It turns out to be the adopted daughter of the Shen family who was kicked out by my eldest brother. Back then, you seduced my second brother and were caught in public, making our Shen family a laughing stock in Hong Kong. How dare you come back?" Shen Zhi sneered.
"Is it her? She does have some capital."
"I heard that the second son of the Shen family was exiled because of this, how come she is fine?"
This incident caused quite a stir at the time, and they had heard about it.
Lin Ran's face was pale, and the nightmares of the past came back to her, making her feel suffocated.
But nothing was explained.
No need.
Seeing how miserable she was and how she still dared to ignore her, Chen Zhi immediately became furious and stepped forward to slap her.
"Lin Ran, this is Chen Garden, it's my home. You filthy bitch, get out right now!"
Lin Ran grabbed her wrist and said coldly, "Your family? Does Shen Jinghan recognize you as his sister?"
Chen Garden is the private property of Shen Jinghan's mother, Madam Shen.
After Mrs. Shen passed away, Shen Garden belonged to Shen Jinghan, and even the master of the Shen family only had the right to live there.
Based on her understanding of Shen Jinghan, he didn't recognize any of his half-brothers and sisters.
Shen Jinghan is such a noble and indifferent person.
Chen Zhi felt so hurt that he pushed her away and screamed, "How dare you teach me a lesson, bitch? I'm going to beat you to death with my dad's horsewhip today!"
Lin Ran raised her little face, revealing the purple wound on her forehead, and said coldly:
"Hit me? Let's see if you have the chance!"
"The Sixth Miss of the Shen family maliciously crashed a car on a mountain road and fled the scene! With all the evidence, who do you think will make the headlines? And who did Mr. Shen come back to beat up?"
Chen Zhi was arrogant and said angrily, "Bitch! If I had known it was you in the car, I would have hit you to death."
She pushed her angrily, and the next second, as if she had seen a ghost, she looked behind Lin Ran in fear and cried out, "Big, big brother."
Lin Ran's body stiffened, he stood straight, not daring to look back.
"Who are you going to kill?"
