"Ugh …" Cough cough … "Ugh …"

In the washroom on the second floor of a European style villa in the surrounding mountain villa area, the sound of retching continuously came at dawn. A woman in a conservative pajamas was lying on the toilet bowl, vomiting until the sky was dark, her black hair covered her face, and her expression couldn't be seen. However, one could tell that she was really upset from the way she lied on the toilet bowl listlessly, wishing that she could vomit her stomach out.

Helan Xue, who had just vomited, fell to the ground. Her lips were pale and her face was sallow. A trace of worry flashed across her pair of watery eyes …

This situation had been going on for more than a week. Every morning when she opened her eyes, she would feel her stomach churning violently. She couldn't even spit it out, even if she had a bad feeling about it.

She was twenty-two years old, and although she had experienced only one sexual encounter, she could probably guess why she was in this situation. She might have been pregnant, just a month and a half ago, after that intoxicating night.

Helan Xue had always felt that this was an unreal dream when she thought of her first time meeting him, and they had been married for two years now. Helan Xue had always felt that this was an unreal dream when she thought of her first time meeting him, and now that she had been married for two years, Helan Xue had always felt that this was an unreal dream when she had been married.

That's right, he was so heartless. Because this marriage was something he had cheated off, he hated her! In the two years they had been married, their marriage had always been hidden in a dark place where no one could see the light of day. Other than the people from the Helian Clan, no one outside knew that Helan Xue was the third generation chief executive of C City's famous DK Group, the legal wife of Helian Jue who was worth hundreds of billions of rich and handsome men. Even if they knew about it, they had always treated her as a servant of the Helian Clan.

The alarm clock rang, interrupting Helan Xue's train of thought. She stood up and brushed her teeth swiftly to wash her face and change clothes. The whole process took her less than five minutes. She then tied her hair into a ponytail with a black rubber band and quickly went downstairs to the kitchen.

After busying himself in the kitchen for nearly two hours, he finally prepared breakfast for his family. It was the toast, ham and sandwiches, and the steamed bun, fried dough sticks, egg, and flower soup … There were only a few people eating breakfast, but the tastes were vastly different, so she had to change her style every morning. Not only did she have to cook Chinese food, she also had to cook Western food.

As soon as he placed the breakfast on the table, a burst of surprised exclamations came from upstairs, "Ah …" Crap, I'm late. Helan Xue, didn't you tell me to wake up earlier? I have an important date this morning, and it's almost 8 o'clock now.

The one who spoke was her sister-in-law, Helian Qiuxi. Helan Xue maintained her silence when she yelled at her, because once she opened her mouth, she would be endless. It didn't matter if it was her fault or not, as long as she didn't say anything, she would be right.

Helian Qiuxi's shout woke the others up, saving Helan Xue a lot of trouble.

Nanny, sister-in-law and distant cousin, who had just returned home four months ago, came to the table one after another. Helan Xue placed the dishes they liked in front of them, but was despised by her mother-in-law. I mean to have Chinese food, but besides the steamed buns, fried dough sticks and soy milk, millet congee... Never do anything else? Was it because I told you to cook breakfast that you were upset? "

"Nope." Helan Xue lowered her head and hid the unhappiness in her eyes. Her voice was as calm as water.

As for Helian Qiuxi, who did not wake her up this morning, she did not spare any effort to mock her, "Helan Xue, do you think that by marrying my brother you can save her from flying up the tree branch to become a phoenix? You have to have the capital to do that. You and my brother have been married for two years, and my brother has never even looked at you. "Let me tell you some interesting news. I hope you can remain calm like you are now. My brother seems to have fallen in love with a woman recently."

"Pity, is what you said true?" Hearing this, Grandma Wang Linruo's face was filled with schadenfreude. "There's going to be a good show to watch now."

"Cousin, Qiuxi …" Qin Yuning, who had been keeping her head down all this time, suddenly raised her head and glanced at the two of them with an unhappy expression. "Is it that interesting every day?"

"Yuning, you don't understand. This woman has some tricks up her sleeve …" Lili curled her lips in disdain, but she was interrupted by Qin Yuning.

"I don't understand. I don't understand why you guys bully such a kind-hearted person like her all the time. I don't understand why you always torture her when there's a servant at home. Cousin, you have always been a synonym for the noble and elegant in my heart. I hope you don't make me have a whole new level of respect for you. " Qin Yuning's words were very sharp.

Wang Ruo Lin felt embarrassed by her words and quickly changed the topic, "Why did you come back so late last night?"

Qin Yuning's eyes flickered slightly as she replied in an indifferent manner, "Work overtime to get me a project proposal."

"Yo, why are you so desperate? That's our company. Just put on an act. Women can't stay up late. Look at your terrible expression."

Qin Yuning wiped the corner of her mouth gracefully and unintentionally glanced at Helan Xue, who was standing at the side with a pale face. "I don't want to be called an empty vase behind my back, and I don't want to embarrass the viscount either."

"But you have to take care of your body as well. You can't be too tired. Let's do the SPA together after work?" Wang Linruo suggested with a hint of flattery.

"Sorry cousin, I already have an appointment today." Qin YuNing pulled out a chair and stood up, looking at Wang Linruo with an apologetic smile.

"An appointment?" Wang Linruo suddenly perked up. "Male or female?"

"Mom, why are you so gossipy? "Aunt, please give me a lift later. I don't want to drive today." Helian Qiuxi interrupted their conversation and dragged her out without waiting for Qin Yuning to speak.

"What?" I'm left alone again. " Wang Linruo pouted as she muttered to herself. As if she had thought of something, she raised her head and looked at Helan Xue with a confused expression. "Come here!"

"Mom …" Helan Xue walked in front of her expressionlessly. She didn't even have to guess what her mother-in-law was going to do next. Other than mocking herself, she didn't see her doing anything serious at all.

"Just now, you said that the viscount fell in love with a woman. As his wife, can you tell me if that is true or not?" Wang Linruo had an evil smile on her face as she stared unblinkingly at her, hoping to see a sorrowful expression on her face.

Helan Xue's heart was as clear as a mirror. She couldn't help but sneer in her heart: Ever since she entered this house, Wang Linruo disliked her and took advantage of her grandfather and father-in-law's absence to humiliate her. And these were all things that Helian Jue, her husband, had never seen before.

They were certain that they didn't dare to tell their grandpa what she had done. Granddad's health wasn't good, he lived in a fresh vacation home all year round, so he would only come down during New Year's Eve. No matter what kind of treatment they received, she wouldn't complain to him, because grandpa was the person who treated her the best in the world.
