Chapter 1: A Series of Fortuitous Events

upstairs and rest for a bit, we'll be back later."Gu Qianshao lowered her head and saw her mother, Ge Hui, quietly placing a house key in her hand.Although Ge Hui's tone was mild, the slight wrinkle..."Momo, you've had too much to drink. Don't embarrass yourself here. Go upstairs and rest for a bit, we'll be back later."

Gu Qianshao lowered her head and saw her mother, Ge Hui, quietly placing a house key in her hand.

Although Ge Hui's tone was mild, the slight wrinkle between her brows still betrayed her displeasure.

Was rejected.

Gu Qianshao lowered the disappointment in her eyes, took the room card, and politely bid farewell to the people at the table.

Those at the table were in high spirits, chatting and laughing. When they heard he was leaving, they tried to persuade him to stay but ultimately let him go.

Gu Qianmo felt a little dizzy and her steps were unsteady as she walked upstairs.

She was originally the precious daughter of a wealthy family, but as a child, she was accidentally lost and adopted by a family in the countryside. It wasn't until half a year ago that she was reunited with her biological parents. Because her adoptive mother needed a large sum of money for kidney inflammation treatment, her biological parents offered to cover the cost, which is why they agreed to take her back.

Today is the first time as the daughter of a wealthy family, being taken out for a meal by her biological parents.

There are many people toasting at the table, so it's inevitable that some drink a lot.

Finally found the room upstairs, a ghostly figure appeared before my eyes.

Taking out the room card and trying to figure out how to scan it, he didn't expect that with a light push, the door would open.

The room was dark.

As soon as I stepped inside, I heard rapid breathing.

The door was slammed shut.

I was startled and about to retreat when I felt a burning hot hand grab my arm.

A moment of dizziness, then I was against the wall. Someone pressed hard on my shoulders.

"Give me the poison, and let me die!"

A low and menacing voice rang out in her ear, making Gu Qianmo shiver.

"I didn't, this isn't 316, is it"

I don't know if I entered the wrong room or if this man entered the wrong room. Sensing the imminent danger, all I want to do is run away.

In the darkness, he didn't know where to go. The man groaned.

"This is 319, who are you"

The man's grip tightened, making Gu Qianshan panic even more. She cried out desperately, "I'm just a college student, not the kind of person you think I am. Let me go, let me out!"

Her defiance quickened his breath, hot breaths spraying on her scalp, making her face flush and her heart race.

Gu Qianmo felt the alcohol taking effect, a wave of nausea and weakness washing over her.

The man realized Gu Qianshao had walked into the wrong room and wasn't the one who drugged him. His defenses instantly dropped a few notches, he moved his hand to his waist, pulling himself closer.

"Help me."

Gu Qianmo's eyes widened in shock. She raised her knee and slammed it toward the man's vulnerable point, but just as she struck, he anticipated her move and easily caught her leg with his hand.

"Help me, and I'll give you anything you want."

Yi's voice seemed to have been held in for too long.

The man took the limited edition watch off his wrist and put it in his pocket.

In the middle of the night, Gu Qianmo was woken up by pain.

Opening his eyes, he saw the man from last night lying on his back, half propped up in bed with a thin blanket covering him.

Fumbled through dressing, gritting my teeth through the pain. Grabbed my phone and fled the hotel.

As he left, he glanced back. The room number was 319. He had indeed walked into the wrong one.

Last night my mother said she would call when she left. I immediately grabbed my phone to check, but there were no missed calls.

There was a sense of relief in my heart, more than anything else. I was glad that no one knew about my late nights away from home. Last night's events would forever remain buried in my memory.

Yun's villa was quiet. Gu Qiansha didn't dare to disturb anyone and went straight back to her room after returning home.

In the mirror of the restroom, a pale face stared back. She removed her heavy glasses and revealed a delicate face.

Because I sweated a lot last night, the freckle makeup I carefully applied on my face is a bit smudged.

With all makeup removed, a beautiful yet charming face appears in the mirror.

Take off your dirty clothes and take out a watch from your pocket.

The watch face was bold and imposing, no doubt belonging to the man from last night. How it ended up in her purse, she had no idea.

Put the watch at the bottom of the drawer, wash your face quickly and lie in bed.

I was feeling both tired and sleepy, but my heart ached intensely.

The moment my eyes close, I can't help but think about everything that happened tonight... It felt like a nightmare.

That's how it was, half asleep and half awake, dawn came quickly.

Sounds of the nanny bustling about came from downstairs.

Gu Qianmo had a splitting headache. She was used to waking up early, so she splashed cold water on her face, put on some light makeup, and put on her glasses before going downstairs.

Downstairs, the Yunqing couple sat on the sofa.

"Is Momo back yet"

Upon hearing her father Yun Qingchuan's voice, Gu Qianmo's feet stumbled.

"It's not that fast, it'd be great if you could be back before noon."

Gu Qianshao's doubts grew even deeper. How could they be so certain that they wouldn't be able to return

Yun Qingchuan's voice was filled with guilt, "This is my fault. I got anxious. The cooperation project with the Wang Group hasn't been finalized yet. If we try a little harder, there might be a turn of events. Although Mr. Wang likes me, he is more than ten years older…"

What does Dad mean by that

Lou Shang Gu Qianmo's face was getting paler and paler. The Yun family were also wealthy people in this city, with several companies under their name. They actually wanted to cooperate by selling their child

"Daddy, it's all my fault!" Yun Qianhua's voice also rang out, she was the adopted child of the Yun family.

When the Yun family lost their child, Ge Hui was heartbroken and adopted an infant from an orphanage.

Ten years ago, the police found the missing child in a small county town. Ge Hui went to see her biological daughter, seven-year-old Gu Qianmo, who only played with mud on the ground.

The biological daughter was raised like a country bumpkin, while the adopted daughter was skilled in everything from music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Because of this, it took a long time for them to acknowledge their biological relationship.

Until the Yun family's company encountered a crisis and needed to arrange a marriage alliance to solve it, just when their almost forgotten biological son had grown into a handsome young man, this drama unfolded.

Yun Qianhua's low sobs rose, adopting an appearance of filial piety, "If I could have impressed Mr. Wang at dinner yesterday, no matter what method I used, I would have helped my father secure the cooperation deal."

"Qianhua, what nonsense are you talking about How can you go and accompany that old man" Ge Hui cried out anxiously.

"It seems I'm getting a little worked up. Let me rephrase that: It's fortunate for Gu Qianshao to be noticed by Mr. Wang. She might not be conventionally beautiful or particularly talented. Someone like her wouldn't stand out in a wealthy family."

"The Wang family is prominent and wealthy, and Mr. Wang genuinely likes her and wants to marry her. It's a match above her station."

Yun Qianhua lowered her head, the corner of her mouth slightly curled up. She was indeed still her mother's favorite child; even her own biological son couldn't compare to her.

Upstairs, Gu Qianshao's face was pale and ashen.

Yesterday at the gathering, there was only Mr. Wang, that Gao wasn't there yet, but there were two fat people instead.

I thought yesterday's excessive drinking was just because I had a poor tolerance for alcohol. Unexpectedly, it turns out they did it on purpose. They intentionally got me drunk, just to have me accompany Mr. Wang.

No wonder I felt that Mr. Wang kept staring at me and refilling my glass during dinner yesterday.

But unexpectedly, my father actually had other thoughts.

And the mother even personally sent the key to the house!

Gu Qianshao swayed and hurriedly grasped the wall to prevent herself from falling.

"He's right, marrying Mr. Wang means I won't have to worry about food for the rest of my life…"

"Dad wants to marry me off to someone else, shouldn't he also ask for my opinion"

Gu Qianshao's voice suddenly rang out.

The three people downstairs were startled. They looked up and saw Gu Qianmo walking down from the floor above, her face looking grim as she stared at them.

"MOMO, how are you here" Yun Qingchuan came to his senses first and asked in some surprise.

Where should I be here By Mr. Wang's side

Gu Qianmo's voice was cold.

"How do you talk to your dad Is this the attitude you have towards elders"

Ge Hui stared coldly.

Gu Qianshao watched, thinking of that room card, cold.

On the side, Yun Qianhua quickly stepped forward and grabbed Gu Qianshao's arm, anxiously explaining.

"Sister, don't blame mom and dad. The company at home is having problems, and Mr. Wang just happens to like someone like you, a clean college student... they had no choice but to do this."

"Since we have no other choice, why not send you instead You're prettier than me, wouldn't that please Mr. Wang even more"

Gu Qianshao shook off her arm.

Yun Qianhua staggered and was pushed to the ground by Gu Qianshao.

"Bang!"

Seeing Yun Qianhua being pushed down by Gu Qiansha, Ge Hui raised her hand and slapped Gu Qiansha.in everything from music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Because of this, it took a long time for them to acknowledge their biological relationship.Until the Yun family's company encountered a cris...
