Chapter 777 The Sister Who Was Shackled Because She Wasn't Sent Away (2)
Perhaps because the original owner of this body had grown increasingly beautiful and had become useful, her father treated her much better.
On the day of her coming-of-age ceremony, a banquet was even prepared for her, which was quite unusual.
But what they didn't expect was that this was a coming-of-age ceremony, but in reality, it was a blind date.
That night, her father pushed her toward a man.
The man was four years older than her and was fairly good-looking, but he looked like he had been drained of his yang energy, and his whole body was weak and thin.
Mu Zhou had heard of him.
It is said that he became addicted to drugs while studying abroad. After returning to China, everyone quietly distanced themselves from him and was unwilling to have any contact with him. Parents were also afraid that their children would be led astray.
But her parents actively pushed her towards him.
She was instinctively afraid, but her parents said they were about the same age and had common topics, and insisted that they talk to each other alone.
In the lounge, looking at the man with sunken eyes in front of her, the original owner was terrified.
But her tears only provoked the man's violence.
Through the man's smug boasting, the original owner realized that her family wanted to cooperate with the man's family, which was why they pushed her out in hopes of getting an opportunity.
It turns out that her parents dressed her up so carefully so that they could sell her for a good price.
In the end, it was Shen Yan who saved her.
Shen Yan kicked the door open, telling her to wait outside.
She didn't know what had happened inside. In the end, Shen Yan came out alone, with injuries on his fists.
He smiled and comforted her, saying that the matter had been resolved and that the man would no longer bother her.
At that moment, the original owner's naive love for Shen Yan became clear for the first time.
Afterwards, the original owner's parents did not know what had happened. They only knew that the man no longer wanted to see them and assumed that he was dissatisfied with the original owner, so they complained that the original owner was useless.
When the original owner of this body first angrily questioned her parents about why they treated her this way, Lin Xi actually said to her:
“You were raised by your parents since you were a child and enjoyed the family’s resources. Now that the family is in trouble, what’s wrong with sacrificing for your parents? How can you be so selfish?”
Her words were instantly accepted by her parents and even her grandfather.
At that moment, the original owner knew that no one would side with her anymore.
But the original owner still couldn't help but complain about why they were so good to her sister, but treated her like this.
Unexpectedly, they said that she owed Lin Xi something.
Because she wasn't sent away, she will always owe Lin Xi something.
Their matter-of-fact attitude made the original owner completely disappointed in them.
Later, she and Shen Yan confirmed their relationship, and then came the final blow.
Lin Xi also took Shen Yan away.
This incident became the final straw that broke the camel's back.
She finally gave up and left completely.
Then I came here and lived a peaceful life for five years.
However, just half a month later, she met Shen Yan again.
He was here on a business trip, and the two met unexpectedly.
Shen Yan grabbed her and explained what happened back then.
He claimed he was framed, that he was just drunk and mistook Lin Xi for her.
The original owner no longer wanted to pursue right and wrong; she just wanted to live a peaceful life.
But her peaceful life was still disrupted.
Shen Yan started coming to Luo City frequently for her sake, which eventually aroused Lin Xi's suspicion, and she followed him there as well.
Upon seeing the original owner of the body, the hatred in her heart reignited.
After what happened back then, Lin Xi went so far as to make a big scene, getting Shen Yan's parents to intervene and force Shen Yan to give her an identity.
So both families forced them to get engaged.
For the past five years, however, Shen Yan has refused to get close to her again, let alone mention marriage.
Linxi was already troubled by this matter.
Unexpectedly, many years later, I saw the original owner clinging to Shen Yan again.
In particular, she went completely insane when she saw that Shen Yan was actually trying to get rid of his family, break off his engagement with her, and prepare to marry the original owner of the body.
The original owner was unaware of all of this.
She rejected Shen Yan and planned to leave.
Who knew that Shen Yan would go mad and imprison her, determined to marry her.
This completely broke Lin Xi.
While Shen Yan was at home confronting his parents, she set fire to the villa where the original owner of the body lived.
To prevent the original owner from escaping, Shen Yan locked the villa's main gate from the inside and sealed all the windows.
Unexpectedly, this ultimately led to the original owner's death in the fire.
What chilled the original owner even more was that after her parents found out, they chose to protect Lin Xi.
Although Shen Yan knew it was Lin Xi, he was so consumed by self-blame that he became mentally unstable, and his testimony was not accepted.
Moreover, he was in Kyoto when the incident occurred.
Neither of the original owner's biological parents pursued the matter further, and her death was attributed to an accident.
The original owner felt that his life was really stifling.
Even after her death, her parents still feigned grief and cried at her grave.
"Consider it as you finally paying back what you owe Lin Xi. We will perform a proper ritual for you so that you can be reborn into a better life in your next life."
Lin Xi also made a one-sided reconciliation with her, looking quite disappointed.
"I will never hate you again. The past is forgotten, and I will live a good life together with you."
But why?
Actually, the original owner also wanted to ask her who she had wronged.
What does she owe Lin Xi?
Everyone says she got a great deal, but what did she actually enjoy?
She was poorly fed and clothed from a young age, and had to endure her father's indifference and her mother's beatings and scoldings. Who did she owe?
She wasn't the one who sent her younger sister away.
It wasn't her fault that her mother couldn't give birth to a son.
It was her father who betrayed the family and had an affair, not her. Why did it all end up being her fault?
Lin Xi hated her for wanting to take everything from her, but she endured it all.
From small things like clothes and accessories to big things like competition opportunities and family and friends, she has given up everything. Isn't that enough?
Why do you do this to her?
An overwhelming hatred overwhelmed her.
Her wish is that everyone will be punished.
She wanted them all to experience her despair.
Mu Zhou closed his eyes, pondering the current plot.
Shen Yan will be arriving in Luoshi in half a month.
Over the past five years, the Mu family, the Shen family, and Shen Yan's own business have all flourished.
But she didn't even get a college diploma, and now her life is just enough to make ends meet.
She alone would probably find it difficult to fight back.
If Shen Yan goes mad again and imprisons her, she probably won't be able to escape easily with her current abilities.
She needs to leverage her connections.
As for whose help to borrow...
My phone vibrated; it was a message from Huo Xiaoyun.
[Sis, my dear sister, you're not just playing games with me, are you? Where are you?!]
[Coming soon.]
Mu Zhou composed himself and got out of the taxi.
In front of us is a Western restaurant.
The environment is elegant and suitable for a date.
Huo Xiaoyun was tricked by his parents into thinking it was a family gathering, only to find out upon arrival that it was a blind date.
At this moment, his mother and the woman's mother and aunt were both at the table.
As soon as Mu Zhou entered the restaurant, he saw a group of people at a table not far away.
The waiter immediately came forward:
"Madam, how many people are in your party? Do you have a reservation?"
Mu Zhou waved his hand:
"Find a friend."
After entering the restaurant, she did not go directly to Huo Xiaoyun's table, but instead pretended to look for someone and walked in another direction.
Not far away, a man in a suit was being entangled by a man and a woman.
Mu Zhou couldn't see the man's face clearly, but seeing that he was wearing a suit and had a familiar tall figure, she paused for a moment, then mustered up her courage and stepped forward.
Before the man in the suit could turn around, she hugged him from behind.
For a moment, everyone was stunned.
