章節 1: Rebirth of a Woman Who Smelled Worse Than a Rat
編輯: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Cang Lan, if you really loved me and if you're willing to sacrifice everything for me as one would for a son. Could you just sacrifice yourself once more and die for me already!
"After you die, the company and the industry will belong to me and me alone. I really can't thank you enough for this golden ticket that you've so graciously prepared for me. When the time comes, I'll marry Hermione. You should know very well that we are a match made in heaven.
"Don't worry, you know that I'll always care for your well-being. I won't let you go to the Netherworld alone.
"Your parents will accompany you."
Xu Zhou's voice spoke next to her ears. He spoke gently, but there were hints of maliciousness in his voice. The next moment, he opened the door of the passenger seat and jumped out.
Cang Lan looked at the dark night that shrouded her. She was restrained by the tampered seatbelt and could not move, and she could only wait until the cold deep sea drowned her. She closed her eyes and waited for death to come.
Cang Lan suddenly woke up with a startling behavior. Her head was drenched in a cold sweat as she desperately took in large mouthfuls of oxygen.
'I... I'm still alive? I'm not dead? What about my parents?!' Cang Lan thought to herself as she scanned her surroundings.
The scene before her was a dancing crowd with colorful flashlights that sparkled everywhere. The air was filled with the smell of alcohol, accompanied by high-tensioned disco songs that could give anyone a splitting headache.
A memory that did not belong to her flashed in her mind.
This was not her body. This body was obviously too young to be hers. The original owner was Wen Xiaoya, 23 years of age. She was from a prestigious family in the upper class of the Jun Nation. Since young, she had been spoiled by the Wen family to the point that she had become a lawless, willful, arrogant, stupid, and lecherous person. In the entire City of Grace, her reputation was even worse than that of a rat's.
Cang Lan remembered seeing the news this morning. It mentioned that a wealthy heiress in the Jun Nation had spent 3 billion yuan to buy a famous painting titled 'The Fields' and it was even widely announced that she wanted to burn this extraordinary painting live.
How much of a spendthrift would one have to be to carry out such a ridiculous action?
Unfortunately, Cang Lan was already Wen Xiaoya. It seemed that this was not a nightmare.
As Cang Lan herself, she had been betrayed and deceased. It was because of Xu Zhou, whom she had loved deeply, that she put so much trust in him. They had once risked their lives together to fight for the Cang Zhou Company, and their business blueprints had spread all over the world.
It turned out that the ten years of relationship they had was all a scam. She felt like the butt of the joke. She was like a warrior of death who had charged into the battlefield, and right before she could marry the knight of her dreams, she had been tied to the driver's seat of a speeding car and died in a car accident.
When she recalled the past, she had clearly witnessed her best friend Hermione and Xu Zhou having many ambiguous affairs. However, she chose to turn a blind eye to his heartless, self-deceiving, and blind indulgence — which resulted in today's result.
After Xu Zhou plotted to kill Cang Lan, in order to get all the shares, he had to get rid of Cang Lan's immediate family too. For the sake of benefits, he did what he had to do.
They say that love was a sacrifice regardless of the price, what bullsh*t? That means she gambled her life away! And she even sacrificed her parents for it!
Xu Zhou, you really are a ruthless human being!
'Since the heavens did not let me die, I, Cang Lan, swear that I will repay the debt with my blood, avenge my parents, and myself!' she thought to herself.
"Hey baby, why are you kneeling like this? Let's finish the other half of this pill and I'll make sure you go to heaven!" A sexy red-haired girl helped Wen Xiaoya up from her kneeling position. There was a hint of malice in her teasing eyes.
Cang Lan placed her hand on her forehead. The dizziness that she felt physically made her feel like she was on the brink of unconsciousness. She clenched her fists tightly and her nails pierced through her palms, this caused her palms to bleed. She used her sense of pain to maintain her state of consciousness.
Even though the smell of the nightclub was strong, she could still smell the strangeness of the half pill in front of her.
It seemed as though the pill contained hallucinogens, moreover, it had been mixed with strong snake venom. Wen Xiaoya only took half this pill and she was knocked out. That was why Cang Lan, who had died at the same time and space, was saved.
If she took another half, even the Gods would not be able to save her.
"Mimi, I'm tired. I'm not playing anymore. I want to go home... ah... gosh!" Cang Lan deliberately staggered and fell onto Han Mimi's body. The other half of the pill got knocked through the dancing crowd's feet and had long disappeared.
Han Mimi was Wen Xiaoya's friend. She was a despicable and cowardly person who freeloaded on food, drinks, and branded goods. She knew she would definitely not do something like killing people with poison. However, Cang Lan was completely unaware of Wen Xiaoya's current situation. She could not protect herself and could only delay the inevitable.
"Wen Xiaoya! You! Do you know how much I spent on that?!" Han Mimi crawled on the ground and tried to retrieve the other half of the pill. Cang Lan had noticed her nervous expression. Cang Lan struggled to stand up. She could not control her body's balance, and her entire body went limp.
A pair of strong arms hugged her waist. A bewitching male voice whispered in her ear, "Hey, remember when you said that I was your home." The man lowered his head and started to kiss her earlobes. The tip of his nimble tongue lingered like a gentle touch of a flower petal, he kissed her from the back of her ears all the way to her collarbone.
Wen Xiaoya's body began to itch, and a certain deep desire screamed. This addictive feeling was not unfamiliar to Cang Lan, this was because Xu Zhou once treated her like a rare treasure that caused her to feel this way, but little did she know that the back of his gentleness was covered with terrifying and poisonous thorns.
