The substitute bride was me, but the moment he lifted the hijab - he was stunned.
My name is Su Jinnian, and I should have lived under the light of my sister all my life. In order to join Gu's consortium, my family asked me to marry in my sister's place. They gave me a piece of gauze to cover my face and told me: "Just accept your fate and don't ruin the good thing."
But no one knows——
The "abandoned daughter" who was forced to marry had saved the life of this cold-faced CEO in another identity three years ago.
The red candle flickered, and I took off the veil with my own hands.
Gu Shenhan stared at my face, the wine cup in his hand tilted slightly, and the amber liquid spilled all over the floor. He was silent for three seconds, then opened his thin lips slightly and uttered four words:
"You... Why is it you?"
I thought this substitute marriage would be my deepest shame, but I didn't expect that it would become a turning point in my destiny.
The family thought they were giving away a chess piece, but they didn't know that the chess piece had already recognized the king on the chessboard.
My sister stole my identity? It doesn't matter, I will get it back with my own hands.
Is my stepmother planning my dowry? Debts must always be paid.
Everyone is stepping on me to climb up - then just wait to be knocked down by me one by one!
Gu Shenhan pushed the marriage certificate in front of me, with complicated and deep eyes: "If you don't want this marriage, I will send you away; if you stay, I will protect you."
Stay?
Of course stay.
Not because of him, but because - this marriage has just begun to become my weapon.
Under the veil, there is never a face that is at the mercy of others - but a woman who has been dormant for a long time, waiting for a breakthrough.
