The night was dimly lit.
In the bridal suite on the sofa, Su Ying, dressed in a white wedding gown, was intoxicated.
A piercing smell of gas filled the air. Struggling, Su Ying opened her eyes, only to witness a pair of lovers half undressed, locked in a passionate embrace. The sight was like a bolt from the blue, jolting her fully awake.
"Xian'er, the first time I saw your beautiful face seven years ago, deemed the first beauty of the capital, my soul was ensnared," the man murmured, unable to control his desire.
"You're married to my sister; you can't touch me..." the moaning woman half pushed away, half yielded to the man, biting his lip until it bled.
"If it weren't for the president's insistence on an arranged marriage with the Su family, forcing me, his adopted son, to marry Su Ying for the sake of inheritance, why would I wed a country bumpkin so ugly it makes me vomit?"
Casting a glance at the birthmark on Su Ying's cheek left by Red Spider Lily, a wave of disgust washed over the man. His gaze returned to the blushing, beautiful face of the woman in his arms - his immoral desires reignited. "Xian'er, in this world, only you deserve to share my wedding chamber."
With that, he roughly tore off the woman's last piece of clothing, transforming the bridal suite into a battlefield of lust and passion.
As if stricken by a blunt weapon, Su Ying was at a loss, not knowing whether to be angry or sad.
This newlywed husband, who had pursued her relentlessly for seven years and had vowed to love only her, turned out to be in love with her half-sister's face. And they dared to make love in her very bridal chamber!
"Xian'er, let's move this to your place," the satiated Quan Boyan suggested, ready for another round.
"Afraid my sister might discover us and compromise your career?" Su Xian'er sulked.
"The president has publicly announced my inheritance rights at today's wedding ceremony. This ugly creature is of no value to me anymore. What more can she possibly do?" Quan Boyan sneered contemptuously and chuckled maliciously, "More than that, I doping her wine and turned on the gas. By tomorrow, she'll be dead in her sleep. We can't stay here for too long and risk being buried with her."
An intense anger rushed from Su Ying's chest to her head. This deceitful man who used her to gain power was planning to murder her as well? Her fist clenched tightly, sharp nails piercing the flesh of her palm, bringing waves of pain.
"She can't die yet!" Su Xian'er, excited suddenly exclaimed, her eyes falling onto the unsightly birthmark on Su Ying's forehead. "Someone has placed a high price on that birthmark of hers! Let's find a body donor, announce her death, cripple her temporarily and lock her up until we find the buyer for the transaction."
"As long as Xian'er is happy, I'll arrange it immediately." Quan Boyan couldn't understand why someone would be interested in this revolting birthmark, but he made up his mind for the beauty's favor.
After the man left, Su Xian'er closed her robe, swayed to the edge of the couch, and looked down with an ant-like sneer. "Oh Su Ying, you are destined in this life to be trampled under my foot; your identity, your father, even your man, all were snatched by me. Even your sister was forced to commit suicide by me..."
"What did you just say?" Su Ying, who was supposedly dying in her dreams, suddenly sat up, her eyes bloodshot as if a hellish demon had awakened.
Su Xian'er was startled, but she enjoyed observing Su Ying's helpless torment when her weaknesses were probed. She taunted with a light laugh, "I mean, the night you returned from the countryside and got engaged to Prince Bo, I arranged two filthy men to serve you in bed. Alas, they mistook Su Yun for you and she jumped into sea to die after suffering from their disgrace..."
"Yun Yun... She died because of me..." Every word Su Xian'er spits out stabs her heart with poisonous blades. Shaking all over, Su Ying keeps murmuring she couldn't accept this.
Watching her love rival who became pale as a ghost, Su Xian'er was extremely satisfied. With the demeanor of the victorious, she casually unfastened the sapphire pendant from her neck. "Remember this? This was torn off from Su Yun by those two men to curry favor with me. It cost me a million! However, someone paid fifty million for your birthmark, so I've earned my money back. Hahaha..."
"Su Xian'er, you are as vile as vipers and scorpions!" Su Ying lunged at Su Xian'er, choking her. "Give me my sister's life back..."
Su Xian'er was initially ready to fight back viciously, but she saw Quan Boyan coming in with two men. She immediately softened, and cried in vulnerability, "Dear Ying, I know you hate me for stealing Boyan's heart, but love is uncontrollable. I let Boyan push you around to save your life. Please don't ruin my face because you're jealous of my beauty. I beg you..."
"Bitch! If you ruin Xian'er's face, I won't let you off easily!" Quan Boyan shouted in a rage.
"So, if I don't ruin her face, will you let me go?" Su Ying sarcastically eyed the two men Quan Boyan had brought in. She tugged sharply on the sharp earring hanging from Su Xian'er's ear, and violently scratched it across Su Xian'er's face.
"Ahh..."
Su Xian'er lost her chance to fight back, her once beautiful face now marred and bloody.
"Xian'er!" Quan Boyan held Su Xian'er, who fell on the ground, in his arms. His eyes filled with a murderous rage as he glared at Su Ying, "Turn this woman into dog meat!"
"Quan Boyan, Su Xian'er, since you won't let me live, let's all go to hell together...”
As his subordinates were about to make a move, Su Ying suddenly started laughing crazily. In the pause of the onlookers, she pulled out a lighter from somewhere and snapped it open.
"Boom..." As the lighter met the gas, a deafening explosion ensued, everything turned to ashes.
