Chapter 1 The Most Familiar Stranger (1)

  Night, torrential rain.

  A black Rolls-Royce burst through the rain and fog, slowly driving into the Gu's estate, stopping outside the villa gate. A servant immediately held an umbrella to open the rear car door and welcome the man inside...

  Inside the villa, the lights were shining brightly, and in front of the window of a second-floor room, a beautiful and slender figure was reflected.

  Wen Tong sat in the chair by the window, quietly watching the man return downstairs. Ruan Yi was a considerate person, and she took out a soft blanket to cover Wen Tong, adding a touch of warmth to this chilly and wet night.

  "Madam, the young master has returned. Hurry up and seize this opportunity to ask him. I've already brewed the tea. Quickly take it down and have a good talk with him." Nanny Ruan urged her, carrying a tray behind her.

  Wen Tong didn't say a word, staring out of the window with an empty gaze.

  The sound of Lin Ya Li's crying during the day was still in her ears, so heart-wrenching that for a moment she felt like she was the one who shouldn't exist.

  Miss Wen, I already have a child with Xicheng, four months old. We didn't get married but we've been together.

  The doctor said it's a boy, you can feel his heartbeat by touching him.

  "He's still so young, I don't want him to be a bastard child. Miss Wen, please, I beg of you, Xicheng said he doesn't love you at all, he only married you on impulse. Please fulfill my wish, fulfill my child's wish, and fulfill the wish between me and Xicheng..."

  Lin Yali knelt in front of her, shaking her hand and crying, she didn't remember how the maid finally sent Lin Yali away, only that she didn't say a word from start to finish.

  She didn't know what to say and had nothing to say, her heart was as dull as ashes, feeling bewildered.

  After marriage, her husband ignored her and had a child with another woman, what else could she say?

  She saw her not speaking, Ruan's aunt sighed again and comforted softly behind her back, "Young lady, don't listen to that fox spirit's words. Gu's family won't want a child born from an outside woman. You are the legitimate wife of Young Master Gu, go talk to him properly, maybe it's not like this at all..."

  Wen Tong really wanted to tell her, Aunt Ruan, but did you know? I'm actually the illegitimate daughter of a woman outside.

  No one understands the sorrow of being an illegitimate child better than her.

  She faintly curled up the corner of her lips, murmuring in a low voice, "Yes, I have to make it clear with him, I'll go..." She clenched the divorce agreement in her hand, crying in her heart, but her empty eyes couldn't shed tears.

  This was brought by Lin Yali, and Wen Tong had already signed her own name in front of her.

  Downstairs in the hall, a cold-blooded man and his secretary bodyguard burst in, immediately filling the quiet hall with a tense atmosphere. He directly threw his suit jacket to the secretary, and then ripped off his tie with a "zip" sound. Several servants immediately took over, handing him slippers, turning on the TV in the living room, and preparing financial newspapers...

  Everything looks busy and yet in perfect order; the servants of the Gu family dare not be a bit lazy about his habits.

  The man leaned back on the sofa like a king, with his legs crossed, one hand on his knee and the other on the armrest, his perfectly chiseled face clouded over as he stared at the TV screen, his eyes icy cold, causing the temperature around him to drop suddenly.

  The TV is broadcasting today's express news. Lin Ya Li, one of the four little flower dan in the domestic entertainment circle, is facing a siege of reporters.

  The building was surrounded by a crowd of reporters asking about her rumored relationship with the CEO of Gu's Group. Her manager held an umbrella for her, and Lin Yali smiled at the crowd with red eyes, "It's true, I've been with Xi Cheng for a long time, we're deeply in love, he has no feelings for his wife, he'll divorce her soon and marry me, I'm already pregnant with his child, he's very happy..."
