Chapter 1
An Nuan was reborn.
She was reborn 10 years ago when she was 22 years old. When she died, Gu Yan Sheng, her husband who was praised by the world, stabbed a dagger into her heart. He said, "An Nuan, I never loved you. I'm even tired of your body. Do you know? Yao Yao is a hundred times more enchanting than you in bed. But you're like a corpse, both cold and hard..."
Cold and hard?!
An Nuan didn't cry or make a fuss. Her good upbringing made her just endure the heart-wrenching pain.
"Don't you love me so much? Then die to make way for me and Yao Yao. I'll be grateful to you!"
The sinister voice was accompanied by the sharp dagger being pulled out from her heart.
Blood instantly splattered on his gentle and handsome face, showing his ruthlessness to the fullest extent. The corners of his mouth raised into an indifferent smile... As if the one facing him wasn't the wife who had silently dedicated herself to him for 10 years.
Until her death, An Nuan's eyes remained wide open, vowing to engrave this man's cruelty deep into her bones!
They had been married for 10 years.
The two were childhood sweethearts with similar family backgrounds.
An Nuan was talented in zither, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was little. After marrying Gu Yan Sheng at the age of 22, she hid all of her talents, dutifully fulfilling her role as a wife, giving up everything for his sake, doing her best to help him succeed, assisting him to go from a prestigious clan to one of the top families.
She never expected that one day, Gu Yan Sheng would kill her with his own hands, and use the extermination of the An clan as the betrothal gift for his beloved!
She hated him.
Hated him to the bone.
Fortunately, heaven has eyes!
This car accident allowed her to return to this year before she got married.
An Nuan bit her lip tightly.
She stared closely at the man in front of her who had crashed into her bridal sedan chair - Ye Jing Huai, the head of the four great prestigious families of North Wen Country, the third young master of the Ye family!
With a face that could bring down cities and states, 6'2" tall, a body as perfect as a sculpture, the most handsome man in Qing City, bar none.
A man born like this was actually a known playboy in Qing City. Hedonistic and promiscuous to an unmentionable degree... But the one man that Gu Yan Sheng could never defeat in their previous life!
"Is Miss An interested in me?" Ye Jing Huai's deep eyes glanced at her lightly after being stared at.
His mellow and magnetic voice carried a unique charm. The obviously flirtatious words sounded strangely pleasant from his mouth.
"Yes." She regained her composure and admitted bluntly.
At her words, the excited one wasn't Ye Jing Huai, but her best friend Xia Qi Qi. She almost exploded as she yelled, "An Nuan, did you hit your head?!
Ye Jing Huai's eyes flashed an imperceptible trace of emotion, but externally he just laughed aloofly.
"Do you know who this demon is? Do you know how scummy he is?" Xia Qi Qi yelled at An Nuan, "Other than being handsome and knowing how to play with women, he's good for nothing. Yet you actually said you're interested in him! Did you suddenly go blind?!"
She was indeed blind to have fallen for the hypocritical villain Gu Yan Sheng!
This morning, they went to Qing Shi Mountain to pray for blessings. On their drive down the mountain, they collided head-on with a speeding red sports car. Fortunately, the driver of the sports car reacted quickly and swerved to avoid a direct impact, but still ended up colliding.
Both cars were slightly damaged but no one was injured.
Yet because of this, she was reborn!
An Nuan didn't answer Xia Qi Qi, only asking Ye Jing Huai directly, "Dare to snatch a bride?"
"An Nuan!" Xia Qi Qi lost her cool again. Even though Ye Jing Huai was very handsome, would An Nuan call off her wedding just for a scumbag?
"My wedding is on the 18th next month. Dare to come?" An Nuan enunciated each word clearly.
It took Ye Jing Huai a few seconds to digest An Nuan's words.
Slowly, he said indifferently, "Miss An really should go get her brain checked."
As he spoke, he casually took out a bank card from his black trousers, holding it between his long fingers in a proud and unruly manner as he handed it to her. "I'll pay for it."
An Nuan glanced at the super VIP black card.
Everyone knew the third young master Ye was extremely generous with money. The women who had been with him all gained a lot.
An Nuan accepted it.
Ye Jing Huai's eyes still flashed a trace of surprise.
Everyone in Qing City knew An Nuan was virtuous, educated, rational, disciplined and aloof. She never had any dealings with debauched young masters like them. She only wanted to marry Gu Yan Sheng and be his virtuous wife.
An Nuan said, "Consider it the bride price."
Xia Qi Qi's eyeballs almost popped out at this.
Ye Jing Huai gently pressed his perfect lips together, smiling meaningfully but choosing to remain silent at that moment, not revealing his feelings.
So it was unclear if he had accepted, or was just... watching for now.
"On the wedding day, as long as you come, I'll leave with you." An Nuan said.
She was actually answering what he had said before.
In her previous life, on the eve of her wedding to Gu Yan Sheng, she was too excited to fall asleep.
At 4am, she received a call from an unknown number.
"I'll come to snatch the bride tomorrow. Will you leave with me?" The other party asked right away.
An Nuan frowned, "Who are you?"
"Gu Yan Sheng is not a good man." He said.
"Who exactly are you?"
"I'm not a good man either."
Then the call was disconnected.
An Nuan thought it was just someone playing a prank, and from his tone he was clearly drunk, so she didn't take it to heart. But later, she inadvertently found out that the phone number belonged to Ye Jing Huai. Knowing that, she dismissed it even more. She had always looked down on womanizers like him, moreover she had never interacted with Ye Jing Huai before.
Until her rebirth now, she vaguely realized there was more to Ye Jing Huai's words.
However, Ye Jing Huai did not show up at her wedding to Gu Yan Sheng that year.
So she wasn't sure if he had been serious with what he said back then.
In any case, in this life she would definitely not marry Gu Yan Sheng again!
Him coming was just to take revenge more thoroughly!
She turned and left directly. Xia Qi Qi hurriedly followed her footsteps, getting back into their bridal sedan chair.
Ye Jing Huai watched the sedan chair that drove past him.
For a long time, the corners of his lips suddenly curved up into a smile.
The eldest daughter of the An family that all the men in Qing City wanted to marry really was... very interesting!
...
In the departing sedan chair.
Xia Qi Qi couldn't hold it in anymore. "Were you not thinking straight just now, saying you'd let that scumbag Ye Jing Huai come snatch the bride?!"
"No, I was very clear-headed." An Nuan drove calmly.
Even somewhat cold-blooded.
One must know, in the second before the car accident, she was still enduring Gu Yan Sheng's cruel torment.
"Then... what about Gu Yan Sheng? You two are the most model 'couple' in the country, envied by countless others. Yet now you actually want to cheat before the wedding?! What do you take him for?" Xia Qi Qi couldn't imagine it at all.
Cheat before the wedding?
An Nuan laughed coldly.
She had witnessed Gu Yan Sheng and another woman, completely naked, entwined together on a bed right in front of her.
She gritted her teeth and said, "I see Gu Yan Sheng as a beast!"
He doesn't deserve to be human!
