Chapter 1: Future Husband, Snatching the Bride

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Mingchen, I’m here to see you.”

Mu Qiannian, dressed in a white dress, stood in front of a tombstone with a black umbrella in her hand. Her hoarse and gentle voice was mixed with the pitter-patter of the rain.

The tombstone belonged to none other than Mu Qiannian’s husband, Pei Mingchen.

The inscription on the tombstone read, ‘Beloved wife, Mu Qiannian’.

This was the sixth year since Pei Mingchen left. As usual, a cold and fair white rose was gently placed in front of Pei Mingchen’s tombstone..

The howling wind and torrential rain hit Mu Qiannian’s body. Her entire body went limp. She sat on the ground and stared at the person in the photo with her bloodshot eyes. Suddenly, she lost consciousness…

“Sister Niannian, according to the Mu family’s rules, the bride must drink the ginseng tea that mother specially brewed for you before you get married. I wish you a smooth future.”

Outside the door, Mu Wanwan was holding a bowl of dark-colored tea. She leaned against the door, and a sweet and soft sound was heard along with the knocking on the door.

When Mu Qiannian got married, that ginseng tea was mixed with some drugs…


Mu Qiannian’s beautiful eyes narrowed. She recognized that this was six years ago.

Mu Wanwan smiled and walked up to Mu Qiannian, “Sister Niannian, mom spent a few hours waiting in front of the stove to brew this for you. Even though you’ve been living in the Mu family all these years and took over my identity, the family didn’t blame you. You’re not a member of the Mu family. When you marry into the Chen family, you must be careful and not tarnish the reputation of the Mu family…”

In the next second, without waiting for Mu Wanwan to finish her sentence, Mu Qiannian picked up the ginseng tea on the plate with one hand and pinched Mu Wanwan’s chin with the other. She poured the ginseng tea into Mu Wanwan’s mouth in one smooth motion.

“Don’t worry, I won’t tarnish the reputation of the Mu family. I’ll clean up the feces!”

“Ahh— ” A painful and mournful female voice echoed in the empty villa.

——

The taxi slowly stopped in front of the hotel. Mu Qiannian got out of the car in a simple black dress with a white flower on her chest. She did not look like she was attending an engagement party, but more like she was on her way to a funeral. The passing guests could not help but take another look at her.

Mu Qiannian talked to the person on the other end of the Bluetooth headset as she walked.

“Boss, we’ve investigated everything. Two hours ago, a nightclub madam named Zhao Hong gave Mu Wanwan a pack of aphrodisiacs. Mu Wanwan bribed the nanny to put it in your ginseng tea. Mu Wanwan planned to make a fool of you at the Engagement Party.”

Mu Qiannian sneered. Her cold eyes were frozen. Did Mu Wanwan want to harm herself just like that? Then Mu Qiannian asked, “What about the Chen family?”

“The Eldest Young Master of the Chen family, Chen Jia, is a piece of trash. None of the upper-class families in Fang City are willing to marry him. He wants the daughter of the Mu family to marry him as a decoration. It just so happens that the Mu family is greedy for the one billion yuan that the Chen family gave them.”. “Also… According to the informant, the Chen family’s money chain has been in trouble!”

“What’s a poor kid pretending to be here? Go back quickly and don’t interfere with President Chen’s business!”

At the entrance of the hotel, two security guards in uniforms frowned and looked at a man in simple clothes with disdain. They could not help but push him with their hands.

“There isn’t a sign that says one can’t enter without wearing formal attire at the entrance. Besides, I have an invitation.” A melodious voice that sounded like a babbling stream sounded slowly with a hint of coldness. The man frowned slightly and tried his best to suppress his displeasure as he explained patiently.

Suddenly, Mu Qiannian’s heartbeat quickened. She looked at the familiar figure and stopped in her tracks nervously.

That was — Pei Mingchen!

Pei Mingchen, who was still alive and had not been implicated by her!

“Stop it. With your current appearance, where did you steal the invitation from? I advise you to leave as soon as possible, or else I’ll call the police!”

The aura around Pei Mingchen gradually turned cold. His handsome face was filled with coldness. The security guard could not help but feel a little scared when he saw Pei Mingchen. He became even more furious and pushed him violently. “Leave quickly, or don’t blame me for being rude!”

“Wait!”

The security guard looked over and saw a woman with delicate facial features and a cold temperament walking over in high heels. Her cold gaze swept past him. “This person will go in with me.”

“Do you think you are…” The security guard was about to scold Mu Qiannian, but the next moment, he saw a couple on a huge wedding sign outside the hotel from the corner of his eye. He suddenly lost his voice.

The security guard looked at the woman on the sign and then at Mu Qiannian. “…”

Mu Qiannian smiled sarcastically. Her thin lips moved slightly. “See? I’m here to get engaged to your President Chen. You’d better do as I say. Otherwise, you won’t be able to bear the consequences if you delay our entrance and offend President Chen.”

The security guards looked at each other. “…”

Then, they looked at Mu Qiannian, who was wearing a black dress and black shoes. “…” Was she here to get engaged? She seemed to here to send their President Chen to his death!

Nonetheless, they were afraid of Chen Jia’s power, so the security guards could only let Mu Qiannian bring Pei Mingchen in.

Once they entered the hotel, Mu Qiannian did not follow the route to the reception hall. Instead, she took a turn and brought Pei Mingchen into the emergency evacuation route where no one would come and go.

As soon as she closed the door, Mu Qiannian lost control. She hugged Pei Mingchen’s neck and kissed him. She bit down hard and ground him like a wave of ambiguous fire, making it impossible for anyone to escape. The man underneath her was almost completely passive in accepting the kiss.

“Do you still remember me?” Mu Qiannian forced herself to regain some sense and let go of Pei Mingchen a little. However, her pitch-black eyes were staring at the other party.

Three months ago at the Chen family banquet, Mu Qiannian was forced to dance with Chen Jia. She remembered that Pei Mingchen’s eyes had never moved away from her throughout the entire banquet.

Pei Mingchen leaned against the wall and panted. His Adam’s apple rolled up and down as he watched Mu Qiannian. There was some moisture in his eyes as he panted and nodded. “I remember. My elder brother’s fiancée.”

Mu Qiannian smiled and patted Pei Mingchen’s face. “That’s why you’re not obedient. You actually like your sister-in-law. Hmm?”

Pei Mingchen did not say anything else. Mu Qiannian glanced at him with a smirk and turned around to leave. Forget it. As long as she knew that he was still alive, it would be fine as long as he still liked her. She would come back to coax him after she had dealt with the group of vicious dogs outside.

Just as Mu Qiannian was about to leave, Pei Mingchen grabbed her hand. Mu Qiannian turned around to look at him. Pei Mingchen lowered his head and seemed to be deep in thought. He said in a low and muffled voice, “Why did you… kiss me?”

The last two words were so soft that it was almost inaudible. It was like a feather scratching at the tip of her heart.

Mu Qiannian recalled the scene of Pei Mingchen dying for her in her previous life. Without even thinking, she blurted out, “You’re too good… too good-looking. I couldn’t help it.”

Mu Qiannian almost blurted it out. She quickly changed her words.


“Got it.” Pei Mingchen was obviously very happy. His ears turned red. “You’re also very good-looking.”

Facing Mu Qiannian who was clearly dressed in mourning attire, Pei Mingchen just praised her blindly.

“Ding —”

Pei Mingchen’s cell phone rang. He opened it without batting an eyelid and took a look. ‘Boss, I’ve borrowed someone. You can snatch the bride.’

At the same time, Mu Qiannian, who was about to go to the reception hall for a fight, also received an anonymous message.

“Boss, someone is spending a lot of money to get our people to snatch the bride. The location is the hotel where you’re currently at. It can’t be that they’re snatching you, right?”

Snatching the bride?

Mu Qiannian subconsciously shifted her gaze to Pei Mingchen. Other than him, no one else would do such a thing at the engagement party.

Pei Mingchen… Spent money to snatch her, the bride?

That was not right. Where did he get the money?
