Chapter Index

    “Feng Yan, Young Master Bai, long time no see.”

    Sheng Xiaoran greeted the two with a faint smile. Compared to his desolate appearance a month ago, he was now practically glowing with health and vitality.

    “Congratulations, Xiaoran. Miss Ji, long time no see,” Feng Yan said with a smile, greeting the pair.

    Everyone knew what the congratulations were for. Shuang Yu wasn’t familiar with them, and this wasn’t the place to reminisce, so he simply gave them a cool nod.

    “Young Master Bai is quite different from the rumors. Taking on this guy Feng Yan, you’re sure to have a tough time ahead. If you ever need help, just ask,” Ji Jiaxuan said with a smile after giving him a thorough look-over.

    They were all from the same circle and had been playmates since childhood. She was one of the few people who dared to joke with Feng Yan. As a strong woman in the business world, her presence was no less commanding than Sheng Xiaoran’s or Feng Yan’s, a complete opposite of the feigned white lotus persona of Yan Qianqian. She was flamboyant yet poised, making a good first impression.

    “Congratulations to you both,” Shuang Yu said sincerely on behalf of the original host.

    As boot brothers who had both met tragic ends, the original host was very grateful that Shuang Yu had helped Sheng Xiaoran escape from that scourge, Yan Qianqian.

    “Thank you. We should all get together on a weekend. You must do us the honor, Young Master Bai.”

    Sheng Xiaoran’s feelings were undoubtedly complex, but he was genuinely grateful to Bai Shuangyu. If it weren’t for his kind reminder, he might have fallen into an abyss.

    “Alright.”

    The two shook hands and exchanged a knowing smile. Everything was understood without words.

    After entering, Shuang Yu began to search for Yan Qianqian. Feng Yan, seeming to know what he was up to, leaned in with a faint smile and kissed him on the cheek.

    “I’m going to chat with some other people. Feel free to do as you please.”

    Shuang Yu looked at him, wanting to say something, but in the end, he said nothing and just nodded.

    [Lord Ghost Messenger, Yan Qianqian is by the pool.]

    Xiao Ai provided a hint. At that moment, Sheng Xiaoran and Ji Jiaxuan had already walked onto the stage, clearly about to announce their happy news.

    Shuang Yu exited the hall and headed towards the pool. By the poolside, Yan Qianqian, disguised as a waitress, was anxiously waiting in a corner. She and Jiang Lu had already planned it. Jiang Lu would step forward to stop Sheng Xiaoran after he got on stage and would play a secret recording of their sex video. Then, after the video was made public, she would go on stage as the involved party to accuse him. She would portray Sheng Xiaoran as the ultimate scumbag, forcing Ji Jiaxuan to give up the marriage alliance.

    Everything was ready; all they needed was the right moment.

    “A leopard can’t change its spots. Aren’t you afraid of going to hell after you die?” a cold male voice sounded.

    Yan Qianqian’s pupils suddenly contracted as she turned her head, gritting her teeth. “It’s you!”

    She never expected that even in disguise, she would be recognized and cornered by Shuang Yu!

    “Trying to make a desperate move? Do you think I’ll let you succeed?” Shuang Yu sneered, his eyes filled with contempt.

    “Bai Shuangyu, I have no grievances or enmity with you…”

    Even at this point, Yan Qianqian was still pretending.

    “No grievances or enmity? Wifey, your words are a bit too cold, don’t you think?”

    Shuang Yu’s smile was brilliant, but his words plunged her into an icy abyss.

    No, impossible! He can’t possibly be reborn! Otherwise, how could he have signed that fake ten-billion contract! What on earth is going on…

    “You… you…” Yan Qianqian’s face changed drastically, a hint of fear appearing in her eyes.

    Meanwhile, the hall was in an uproar. Just as Sheng Xiaoran went on stage to announce his happy news with Ji Jiaxuan, Jiang Lu suddenly appeared.

    “Miss Ji, if I were you, I would never get engaged to this kind of trash. You’ve been deceived by him. This scumbag tricked the actress under his company, Yan Qianqian, into giving him her first time, even got her pregnant, and then forced her to have an abortion and abandoned her! His private life is a mess. I can’t just stand by and watch him ruin your life. Today, I’m going to let you see his true colors!”

    She sneered and looked at a staff member not far away. The white wall flickered with static, and soon, an inappropriate scene appeared. But the people in the video weren’t Sheng Xiaoran and Yan Qianqian. It was Yan Qianqian and Wang Yunfei!

    This was also Feng Yan’s surprise for Shuang Yu. He had come to this birthday party precisely to switch the videos.

    Wha-what is going on?!

    When the video played, Jiang Lu was dumbfounded, and Yan Qianqian’s face turned ashen. It was over. Everything was over…

    “Everyone has a past. I don’t care about Xiaoran’s past. Even if his heart belongs to another woman, I’m confident I can win him over. I’ve known Xiaoran for decades. I have eyes, I can see for myself what kind of person he is. I appreciate your concern, Mrs. Sheng. You say Xiaoran took her first time? Then what’s with this video?” Ji Jiaxuan’s aura was in full force as she fiercely defended her man.

    “A woman who’s been ‘repaired’ can also be called a virgin. Miss Ji, you’re quite ignorant!” Gao Yiwen said with a laugh, causing the whole room to roar with laughter.

    Jiang Lu and Yan Qianqian, who had tried to manipulate others like marionettes, ended up becoming the clowns, entertaining the crowd.

    “You… you’re really reborn?” The utterly defeated Yan Qianqian asked Shuang Yu, her eyes filled with disbelief and resentment.

    “If you say so, then I guess I am… Yan Qianqian, he who is unjust is doomed to destruction. In our past life, I treated you quite well, didn’t I? And how did you repay me?” A cold glint flashed in Shuang Yu’s eyes, his voice as chilling as ice.

    “You bribed Zhong Hui to trick me into drugging you for your sake! While I was unconscious in bed, you and Zhong Hui were fooling around right next to me, and then you blamed it all on me. I fucking thought I had actually done something to you and was determined to take responsibility, to love and protect you for a lifetime! I was such a fool, wearing a cuckold’s hat the size of the Siberian Prairie and still treating you like a treasure! Having desires isn’t scary, but to satisfy your own selfish desires by treating everyone like monkeys with no bottom line… you’re worse than an animal, not fit to be human!”

    The reason the original host’s resentment was so deep was that he only understood at the moment of his death that he had been played by Yan Qianqian all along. The drugging incident had been planned by Yan Qianqian and Zhong Hui from the start. The drug he drank wasn’t an aphrodisiac at all, but a sleeping potion. That night, he was fast asleep in bed while that wretched pair, seeking thrills, were going at it right next to him. Cuckolded to an astronomical degree, the original host, kept in the dark, blamed himself for the drugging, constantly feeling guilty towards Yan Qianqian and resolving to be good to her for a lifetime, to pamper and love her, and give her whatever she wanted!

    “Shut up! What do you know? Do you have any idea how many disdainful looks I’ve endured since I was a child? You were played to death because you were outmatched, because you were stupid! Why are you blaming me!” Yan Qianqian retorted, her eyes crimson, feeling no remorse whatsoever.

    “You’re right. In the last life, I was stupid, I was outmatched. But don’t forget, in this life, you’re the loser.”
