Substituting An Ugly Duckling As The Bride

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was night at the capital. Those who worked overtime were intoxicated.

Yunyi Lane was the best place in the capital. There was an entire street of bars. There were ordinary bars and bars where only people with ID cards could enter.

A few young men and women went to a certain clubhouse. They wanted to take advantage of their drunkenness to try and see what the legendary clubhouse that only the rich and powerful could enter looked like.

However, when they saw the two rows of muscular black-clothed bodyguards at the door, the courage that they had a moment ago immediately disappeared. They did not even need the bodyguards to chase them away before running off themselves.

After walking far away, the few of them still looked back at the clubhouse with lingering fear.

The huge “Yun Shang Clubhouse” sign above the building was still flashing with a red light.

It seemed that they did not have the chance to visit it.

In a private room of Yun Shang Clubhouse, a few middle-aged men were toasting. A slightly plump but still handsome man was in high spirits, and he said, “This round’s on me. Order whatever you want. Put it on my tab.”

“CEO Chi is so bright!”

“I’ve already said that the marriage between the Chi family and the Mo family is an excellent one. Didn’t CEO Chi sign a big contract today?”

“…”

Chi Rui’s expression turned cold. Chi Rui liked the flattery at the start, but what did the following mean? Wasn’t the person saying that he could only sign the contract by relying on the Mo Family?

Someone beside him noticed Chi Rui’s cold expression and quickly said, “CEO Chi’s business is doing well. Even if it has nothing to do with the Mo family, it should be CEO Chi’s contract. No one can snatch it away from him, don’t you think so?”

Everyone present was experienced and naturally understood that he was trying to smooth things over with Chi Rui. They immediately tried to accommodate him and the atmosphere in the room reached its peak.

Only then did Chi Rui’s expression calm down. He said in a reserved manner, “That’s true. The Chi family has been preparing this contract for a long time. It’s only natural that it was signed.”

After what had just happened, the people present naturally did not find trouble with Chi Rui. The atmosphere became even more harmonious.

After a few rounds of drinking, someone took advantage of the tipsy atmosphere and said, “CEO Chi, you said that you sent your eldest daughter to marry that short-lived heir from the Mo family. Don’t you feel sorry for her?”

“What’s there to feel sorry for?” Chi Rui narrowed his eyes slightly and said half-drunk, “Isn’t she just a daughter? It’s her honor to be able to marry into the Mo family.”

After saying that, Chi Rui pulled everyone together in a mysterious manner and said, “You guys don’t know that my eldest daughter is extremely ugly. Four years or so ago, she actually gave birth to a child out of wedlock. Fortunately, that child is gone now. It doesn’t count as bringing shame to the Chi family.”

When the others heard this, they were a little confused. “The daughter you’re talking about is Chi Xiao?”

After receiving Chi Rui’s nod, everyone was shocked.

They all knew who Chi Xiao was. As the heir of the Chi family and the Xiao family, Chi Xiao was undoubtedly outstanding. Four years ago, the young masters in the capital city who wanted to marry Chi Xiao lined up from the front gate of the Chi family to five streets across outside.

However, a fire broke out in the Chi family four years ago. From then on, Chi Xiao disappeared without a trace.

However, they did not expect to hear news of Chi Xiao again under such circumstances.

Everyone looked at Chi Rui in a daze and sighed in their hearts.

Chi Rui was also not a loyal person. Less than a week after Chi Xiao’s mother died, he could not wait to raise his lover’s status and even claimed that they were truly in love. Even the illegitimate daughter had gained a different status due to the talk of true love.

The few CEOs looked at one another and saw disdain in one another’s eyes.

Chi Rui was originally an illegitimate child of the Chi family and was extremely disliked there. When he first pursued the Xiao family’s little princess, he was sincere and acted humbly towards Elder Xiao. In the end, he managed to deceive the Xiao family’s little princess.

The good times did not last long. Not long after Elder Xiao’s death, Chi Rui revealed his true nature and treated Chi Xiao’s mother extremely poorly. It was only after Chi Xiao’s mother’s death that they found out that Chi Rui had an illegitimate daughter outside who was almost the same age as Chi Xiao.

The man was really something else to be able to do this.

The middle-aged man was still bragging about his glorious life in the room. Outside, Chi Xiao heard Chi Rui talking about her and her mother without a care in the world, and she almost twisted the doorknob off.

Jin Mao was following behind Chi Xiao and called out nervously, “Boss?”

After a while, the room returned to silence. Chi Xiao finally calmed down and a cold glint flashed across her eyes. “Get someone to go in. Find any excuse. In short, I want Chi Rui to be embarrassed today.”

After a pause, Chi Xiao added in her heart, “It would be best if the embarrassment could last for the rest of his life.”

Jin Mao asked, “Boss, do you want to install a surveillance camera to record Chi Rui’s ugly behavior today?”

“With you recording it, are you planning for Yun Shang to go out of business in the future?” Chi Xiao glanced at Jin Mao before praising him, “However, it wouldn’t be bad if I could see Chi Rui’s ugly behavior with my own eyes. Go ahead and make the arrangements. I want to see it..”
