Substituting An Ugly Duckling As The Bride

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The next morning, the Mo family’s car stopped at the entrance of the Chi family’s villa.

Because of superstition, the Mo family and the Chi family chose to keep a low profile.

Chi Ying looked at Chi Xiao’s seductive and graceful figure and then lowered her head to look at her dried up body. A trace of jealousy flashed across her eyes. However, when she saw Chi Xiao’s scarred face, her heart instantly calmed down.

She smiled and said, “Sister, you’re going to marry into the Mo family soon in my place. This is a good marriage. It’s rare that there’s still someone willing to marry you even with such a face.”

Seeing that Chi Xiao did not say anything, Chi Ying’s sense of superiority became even stronger. “You have to thank me properly. After all, without me, how could you have obtained such a good marriage?”

Chi Xiao glanced at Chi Ying from the corner of her eyes and suddenly smiled. “That’s right. This marriage is indeed fortunate. The Mo family is the richest family in the capital. Even with ten Chi families combined, they would not be able to compare to the Mo family. I have to thank you for giving in.”

Chi Ying’s expression froze and her hands were tightly clenched. What did this slut mean?

She had clearly given it to her because she didn’t want it anymore. Why did Chi Xiao look like she had taken advantage of her?

Looking at Chi Xiao’s smug expression, Chi Ying wished she could scratch her face.

After enduring it for a while, Chi Ying finally said, “Since you like that sickly Mo Ting so much, then let’s hurry up. Otherwise, if we’re late, Mo Ting will have already died.”

After saying this, Chi Ying received Qi Yun’s warning gaze. Qi Yun leaned close to Chi Ying’s ear and warned her in a low voice, “Control yourself later. Do you still want your life? If the Mo family hears you say this…”

Chi Ying then realized that she had actually been duped by the slut Chi Xiao the entire time. She glared hatefully at Chi Xiao, only to see Chi Xiao swagger out and open the door. Her gaze was calm as she looked at the Mo family members waiting outside to receive her.

Sitting in the Mo family’s car, Chi Xiao thought back to what the mother and daughter had said.

She felt that it was extremely laughable.

Was Mo Ting ill? She wasn’t afraid. She wanted to take a look first. With her medical skills, there were very few illnesses that she couldn’t cure. Even if she couldn’t cure them, it didn’t matter. She could still help Mo Ting hold on to life. When the time came, she would find her child and immediately escape.

When the time came, if the Mo family wanted to find someone to take responsibility, who could they find?

The Chi family, of course.

When the time came, even the hypocritical scum of the Chi family wouldn’t be able to get away with it.

The car drove quickly. In less than half an hour, Chi Xiao arrived at the entrance of the Mo family’s old residence.

The driver and the bodyguards who escorted Chi Xiao maintained a business-like manner. Their faces were cold and indifferent. Even if Chi Xiao looked at them, they would immediately avoid her gaze, making Chi Xiao look like a ferocious beast.

The servant who opened the door had a smile on his face. However, the moment he raised his head and saw Chi Xiao’s face, his expression suddenly turned into fear.

Then, he stood fixed at the door and pointed at Chi Xiao, unable to speak.

“Aunt Zhao, what’s going on?” The middle-aged man’s voice rang out.

Fortunately, the middle-aged man, as the butler of the Mo family, had seen a lot of storms over the years. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He immediately opened the door and said, “Come in.”

However, his tone was slightly cold.

The butler had watched Mo Ting grow up. Naturally, there were thousands of people who looked down on the ugly and timid Chi Xiao. However, the Chi family was, after all, the only one in the capital who was willing to marry their daughter for the superstition.

It was not his place to dislike her.

With this thought in mind, the butler led Chi Xiao to Mo Ting’s room. “The young master fell ill again last night. He hasn’t woken up yet. The doctor has been here for a long time. I hope it really works and you can help the eldest young master hold on to life.”

“We ought to look for Gui Jianchou…”

The Butler lowered his voice as if he was not sure himself.

This was because even though Gui Jianchou had superb medical skills, he was temperamental and unpredictable. No one knew what he liked. Even his appearance was a mystery.

Mo Ting’s room was completely surrounded. A group of people were making a racket. Those who did not know would have thought that this was a farmers market.

A moment later, Mo Ting’s room door was opened. The doctor looked exhausted. “Although the situation is stable this time and the young master is still holding on to life, if we can’t find Gui Jianchou, I’m afraid it’ll be too late.”

At this moment, Chi Xiao was brought over by the butler. The first person to see Chi Xiao was the doctor who treated Mo Ting. He suddenly stopped mid-sentence, causing everyone to look in the direction of his gaze.

After seeing Chi Xiao’s face, the crowd let out a cry of surprise mixed with the words “So ugly.”

“…” Chi Xiao was helpless. Was it necessary?

Elder Mo was also stunned when he saw Chi Xiao’s face. He couldn’t help but suspect why the eldest daughter of the Chi family had such an appearance?

Mo Ting’s father, Mo Jun, looked at Chi Xiao’s face and listened to the discussions around him. He couldn’t help but slap his thigh. “Father, this won’t do. Do you have the heart to let young Ting marry such an ugly… woman?”

In the end, he still had some dignity. The word ‘ugly’ was swallowed up after only making half a sound.

Elder Mo wasn’t satisfied either. However, things had already come to this. Among all the socialites in the capital, only the Chi family was willing to marry their own to young Ting.

After thinking about it, he waved his hand and said in a heavy voice, “Can you find another partner?”

Mo Jun shut his mouth and couldn’t say anything.

Elder Mo waved at Chi Xiao. Although his tone was not friendly, there was no disdain in it. “Come and see young Ting. He will be your husband from now on.”

Chi Xiao walked in and saw a cold and tall man lying on the sickbed with a pale face.

Since he had not been sick for long, the man’s figure was well maintained. There were still muscles on his arms and his figure was not considered thin.

However, his face was a little too pale, and his lips were so pale that there was no color in them.

However, even this could not conceal the man’s handsomeness. His facial features were just right, and unknowingly, only one thought remained in Chi Xiao’s mind. “This face is really not bad.”

Just as Chi Xiao was staring fixedly at Mo Ting, Mo Ting’s eyes suddenly opened.

That pair of pitch-black eyes stared at Chi Xiao. A moment later, a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes.

However, it wasn’t disdain for Chi Xiao’s ugly appearance. Instead, it was as if… he had seen someone who shouldn’t exist.

Being stared at like this, Chi Xiao felt somewhat embarrassed for the first time in her life. She turned around and was about to leave when she heard Mo Ting’s slightly hoarse voice. “Who are you?”

Mo Ting had woken up!

Everyone present had this understanding. When they turned their heads to look at Chi Xiao again, they began to size her up.

Mo Ting didn’t wake up earlier, yet did when Chi Xiao was around.. What did this mean?
