Someone was plucking my mouth, someone was pinching my chin, and their nails were embedded in my flesh. The pain made me jump and open my eyes. The dazzling crystal light came down and made me squint my eyes. There was a fishy and bitter taste in my mouth, like a rusty iron nail soaked in blood.
"Swallow it, don't pretend to be dead."
A middle-aged woman's voice was sharp and mean, like fingernails scratching a blackboard. I was pulled back by my hair, my whole face was forced to look up, my throat rolled subconsciously, and the mouthful of liquid had slipped into my stomach.
Nausea.
"Madam, you're done." Someone let go of his hand, and my body fell to the ground like a rag. My forehead hit the marble floor with a muffled sound. It hurts, it fucking hurts.
I lay on the ground and took a few breaths, blinked hard, and then my eyes slowly focused. In front of her eyes was a pair of red high-heeled shoes with heels as thin as nails. Above them, there was a dark green cheongsam with dazzling emerald buttons on the chest. The woman looked at me condescendingly, with a smile on her lips, but her eyes were as cold as ice.
"I wanted to save some dignity for you, but you are shameless." She adjusted her sleeves slowly, "You want to enter our Gu family even though you are pregnant with a bastard? Wei Ci, Wei Ci, do you think you can hide by pretending to be faint?"
Wei Ci?
