I Am My Own Substitute Wife

Translator: Lonelytree

There was plenty of space inside a Rolls-Royce. Two people could roll around in it without any problem. The car windows were shaded to ensure privacy too!

“Sheng Hanye, have… have you lost your mind?” Jiang Niansheng shoved him back. “What’s the difference inside the car and outside?”

“Do you prefer the bed?”

“I don’t prefer it anywhere!” She bit her lower lip, clearly flustered.

If Sheng Hanye forced his way, she couldn’t stop him. His muscular body pinned her down and his body temperature was rising. Jiang Niansheng could hear his breathing becoming more rapid.

…

Honestly, Sheng Hanye had no idea what came over him either. He was never one to submit to lust. Many women tried to seduce him but they all failed.

But at that moment, there was only one thought in his mind. ‘I need Jiang Niansheng!’

Perhaps it was her statement of ‘what you can’t have is the best’ that triggered him. It made him want to have her.

“Let me go,” Jiang Niansheng screamed, “Sheng Hanye!”

She used all her limbs to fight him off but he easily suppressed her.

“If I want you, you’ll be mine.” Sheng Hanye’s fingers landed on her skirt zipper. “If I don’t want you, it’s useless even if you throw yourself at me.”

Jiang Niansheng struggled with all her might. “You can have any woman you want, why are you humiliating me like this?”

“Because you’re my wife.”

“I’m just your contracted wife… Ah!”

Sheng Hanye grabbed her ankles and trapped her between his arms. His lips were about to fall when he heard a soft sob. Sheng Hanye paused. He looked up and saw Jiang Niansheng’s teary, red eyes. Seeing this prickled his heart.

“Do you really hate me that much?”

“What do you think? Sheng Hanye, I will always hate you!” Jiang Niansheng looked at him stubbornly with tears in her eyes.

The gaze was so familiar… In fact, it was exactly the same. Wen Wan had the same stubbornness in her eyes when she confronted him in the past.

Sheng Hanye’s expression softened. He wanted to wipe her tears, but Jiang Niansheng slapped him away. “Don’t touch me!” His hand froze in midair.

After he let go, Jiang Niansheng quickly got up to curl up in the corner of the seat. She quietly wiped away her tears.

Sheng Hanye sat up straight. “Stop crying, it’s annoying!”

‘How can this man swing through so many emotions in a few minutes, is he mad?’

Sheng Hanye rolled down the car window, took out a cigarette, and lit it. “Get out.”

Jiang Niansheng was confused.

“You didn’t hear me?” He said calmly, “I can’t guarantee what will happen next.”

Jiang Niansheng used both hands and feet as she jumped out of the car. In her hurry, she almost tripped. Fortunately, she held onto the car door.

‘This Sheng Hanye is a lunatic! A bastard!’

…

The cigarette smoke rose and it blurred Sheng Hanye’s face.

Jiang Niansheng went back to Sheng Manor. She didn’t dare to go back to the company. If Sheng Hanye suddenly turned into a beast at the company, she wouldn’t be able to get help.

Jiang Niansheng changed out of her secretary uniform. Her fingers slid across her neck. There was nothing there. ‘Wait, where’s my jade pendant?’

It was the only thing her parents left her. Where was it?

Jiang Niansheng looked around, and her cell phone rang. She picked it up without looking. “Hello?”

“This is your uncle.” Liao Peng said. “I’m wondering if you have lost something.”

“Stop with the test.” Jiang Niansheng admitted. “I was the one who had people beat you up. You found my jade pendant, didn’t you?”

“My good niece, you are so clever.”

“Give it back.”

“Sure.” Liao Peng said. “I’ll see you at Moonlight Nightclub tonight.”

Jiang Niansheng departed without hesitation. The jade pendant was the only thing she had of her parents. She knew this was a trap but she had to go!

….

Moonlight Bar was Nan City’s most luxurious gentleman’s club. It had a strict membership system. The membership fee was one million.

In the VIP room, Sheng Hanye’s slender fingers held the wine glass, and his eyes darkened.

“You’re so depressed after you got married. You’ve even resorted to drowning your sorrows with wine.” Si Cang sat opposite him. “It’s true. Marriage is the graveyard of love.”

“I just finished a business deal here. I stopped to have two glasses.”

“What business deal?”

Sheng Hanye said lightly, “It was for a batch of imported spices. Sheng Shi Group is developing a brand-new perfume to release on Chinese Valentine.”

“Coming to a place like this to discuss business? How curious.” Si Cang raised his brow. “Were there female companions?”

Gu Yanzhou immediately kicked Si Cang.

“I was only joking.” Si Cang said, “CEO Sheng has a wife, and CEO Gu, you’re his future brother-in-law. Neither of you can have any fun.”

“Do you have to bring that up?”

Si Cang patted Gu Yanzhou’s shoulder. “Why not just surrender to Sheng Miaomiao? It’s not that embarrassing to have Sheng Hanye as your brother-in-law.”

“Si Cang, will you please stop talking?”

“I am only envious because I’m the only single lad here…”

Gu Yanzhou coughed and asked, “Sheng Hanye, are you… serious with Jiang Niansheng?”

“How can a marriage not be serious?”

“Well, if she can help you get over that trauma, that’s a good thing.”

Sheng Hanye raised his head and finished the wine in the glass in one gulp. His throat bobbed up and down.

‘Jiang Niansheng wanted me to die. Why would she help cure my illness?’

Si Cang suddenly whistled. “Hey, isn’t that your lovely wife? Why is she here?”

Sheng Hanye looked up and saw Jiang Niansheng’s figure flash past the door.

She looked around as if looking for someone.

In the private room next door, Liao Peng sat next to Sheng Tianhong. Liao Zhi sprinkled a small bag of power on the scented candle.

When Jiang Niansheng walked in, she caught the strange fragrance immediately.

She curled the corners of her mouth in disdain. She wouldn’t fall for the same trick twice.

“What are you standing there for?” Liao Peng demanded, “Come and have a drink with Third Young Master and apologize to him properly.”

Jiang Niansheng stretched out her hand. “Give me back my jade pendant.”

“When the third young master is happy with your service, I’ll return it to you.”

“Third young master…” Jiang Niansheng smiled and sweetened her voice. “I’ll gladly serve you but do you dare to be served by me?”

Sheng Tianhong looked at her. “Why wouldn’t I dare? You’re quite a looker. Come and finish these two bottles first!”

Jiang Niansheng picked up the bottle, turned around, and smashed it straight at Sheng Tianhong’s head.

“Fuck! Bitch, did you want to kill me?” Sheng Tianhong barely avoided the attack. He cursed and charged at Jiang Niansheng.

She easily subdued him. She pressed her knee on his back and wished, “Third young master, sweet dreams.”

She raised her hand and swung it at his neck. Sheng Tianhong immediately fainted.

Liao Peng and Liao Zhi were dumbstruck.

Jiang Niansheng clapped her hands neatly and said, “If you don’t want the same thing to happen to you, hand over the jade pendant!”

Liao Peng took out the jade pendant.

She reached out to grab it, but Liao Peng dodged her and raised it high. “Ah ah ah! A wrong move and I will smash this into pieces!”
