C2 She Was Forced to Marry in Her Place

Shen Xining had just walked out of the airport. Before she could take a look at her hometown that had been gone for ten years, she was pulled into the car by someone sent by the Shen family.

Because she was wearing wet clothes, her whole body shivered. Soon, her lips turned white and her forehead became hot.

When she arrived at the Shen family, she was like a prisoner being escorted to the living room.

Her father, Shen Shixiong, whom she had not seen for ten years, saw Shen Xining's appearance. He let out an unlucky sigh, and his eyes were full of disdain.

"Shen Xining! Did you come back purely to anger your father to death?"

One. A woman angrily stood in front of Shen Xining and raised her hand to pinch Shen Xining's arm.

Shen Xining's eyes were sore from the pain, but her father, Shen Shixiong, turned a blind eye to it.

She stared at the fierce woman in front of her. It was her stepmother, Wang Jialan, who entered the house three days after her mother died in a car accident.

When Wang Jialan entered the house, she was accompanied by a pair of children who were the same age as her. It could be imagined how many things Wang Jialan and Shen Shixiong had done under her mother's watch.

Now, just thinking about it made Shen Xining feel that it was not worth it for her mother.

At this moment, Wang Jialan was dressed in a long silk dress and her chest was adorned with a jeweled brooch. She had a noble and dignified air, but her eyes were filled with maliciousness. One look at her was enough to scare people.

Shen Xining covered her sore spot and said in a panic, "I, I will leave after taking my mother's ashes. It will not affect your eyes."

"You want to leave? What kind of place do you think the Shen family is? Come and go as you wish? " Wang Jialan crossed her arms in front of her chest and looked at Shen Xining with contempt.

Shen Xining suddenly had an ominous feeling.

Wang Jialan gave a look to the maid behind her and said coldly, " Hurry up and tidy up the Eldest Miss. The Su family will come and pick her up later. Is it really that good? If not for the fact that she looks similar to Muxue, I wouldn't want a country bumpkin like her to embarrass herself. Jie! Jie!"

"You, what do you mean?" Shen Xining looked at Wang Jialan vigilantly.

Wang Jialan smiled and a trace of viciousness flashed through her eyes, "Xining, we want you to replace Muxue and marry the young master of Su family, Su Ci."

"Replace, replace, marry?" Shen Xining stared at Wang Jialan in fear.

Wang Jialan casually said, "Isn't it just Muxue drinking too much and bumped into Su Ci's sister? She actually wants our Shen family to compensate a daughter and go out! Otherwise, our Shen family's business will be cut off! Luckily I arranged for Muxue to go abroad early!"

"Xining, you should know that Su Ci is famous for being ruthless. I heard that two years ago, he killed a fiancee, and Muxue got married to the Su family for a crime. Is he still alive? Muxue is your sister. Are you willing to let her die in the Su family? As an elder sister, shouldn't you give in to your sister?"

" Die? " Shen Xining's breathing stopped. Just listening to it made her feel that this Su Ci was very scary.

And Wang Jialan was even more vicious. The one who made a mistake was clearly Shen Muxue. She felt sorry for her daughter, but she forced her to send her to hell on behalf of the marriage!

She did not want it!

Shen Xining turned around and wanted to run, but the Shen family servants pounced on her. Fortunately, she had a lot of exercise in the countryside, so she avoided them.

Wang Jialan scolded harshly, "Useless thing! You can't even catch a country girl!"

Immediately, Wang Jialan took out a black box.

"Shen Xining, you don't even want your mother's ashes?" Wang Jialan weighed the container and the corners of her mouth were full of ridicule, "If you don't want it, I will help you smash it!"

"No, don't! Ah! "

Shen Xining's legs were in a mess. She was fiercely kicked by the servant and was forced to kneel in front of Wang Jialan.

But Shen Xining ignored the pain and looked up, begging Wang Jialan.

"Beg, beg you! Don't smash!"

"Shen Xining, be obedient. I will take good care of your mother's ashes for you. Otherwise... I will throw it out to feed the fish!"

Wang Jialan's round eyes stared at him and she was extremely vicious.

"No, no! Give me back my mother... " Shen Xining turned to look at Shen Shixiong, hoping that he would help her out on the account that she was also her daughter. "Dad, no!"

"Don't you not know how to appreciate favors! If you and Muxue did not look alike, how would you have the chance to enter a big family like Su family?" Shen Shixiong said with an expressionless face. He did not even want to take another look at Shen Xining.

Shen Xining held her breath. This was her father. How could he be so heartless?

Wang Jialan lightly laughed and deliberately shook the hand that was holding the jar. It scared Shen Xining so much that her body also shook, afraid that she would throw the urn.

"I promise! Don't, don't touch my mother."

She admitted it, she also did not want her mother to be unable to enter the earth after death.

"Try not to speak when you go to the Su family, stutter and make a fool of yourself." Wang Jialan sneered.

Shen Xining bit her lips tightly. Her red eyes were full of sorrow.

After her mother died, she could not stand the excitement and stuttered when she spoke.

Was this also her fault?

Shen Xining silently shed tears and looked at Wang Jialan gently holding Shen Shixiong's hand. The two of them chatted happily but no one cared about her feelings.

"Shixiong, don't you think the matter has been resolved? Our baby Muxue will be fine."

"Yes, that's good." He didn't care about Shen Xining at all.

Hearing this, Shen Xining smiled bitterly. It turned out that she was just a substitute for Shen Muxue.

She looked up in despair and the maid behind her suddenly covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.

Instantly, she felt weak and fainted.

Before she closed her eyes, she heard her father say, "It's fine if she's dead. The Shen family doesn't have such a useless daughter. It's her fortune to die for Muxue."

Shen Xining didn't expect that the one who wanted her dead was her biological father.

Shen Muxue was his daughter.

She was the same too!

...

Shen Xining woke up and found herself in an unfamiliar room. The lights were dim and there was a bit of flirtation.

She was naked under the blanket and was placed in the middle of the bed like a gift.

She tightened the blanket and found that there was a pearl pendant around her neck. It was round and smooth and had a gentle luster.

The pendant was a relic that her mother wore when she was alive.

This should be the sweet taste that Wang Jialan gave her. It was also a warning.

"Mother." She held the pearl pendant and curled up.

Suddenly, the door opened.

A tall figure slowly walked over. The light outside the door reflected his figure. He was aloof, aloof, and cold.

As the figure approached, the temperature in the room suddenly dropped. The man's dangerous and cold aura made Shen Xining unable to breathe.

Shen Xining looked at the figure that was approaching in fear. Light and shadow intertwined, illuminating the man's handsome and cold face. His amber eyes were filled with ice water, and his heart could be frozen with just one look.

This was the young master of the Su family, the one called Third Master, Su Ci.

What a terrifying person.
