[Stand-in wife + gangster queen + shady tutor + taboo pull + identity reversal]
On the day of the tutoring interview, I saw the boss pinning the female secretary down on the desk, so I pretended to sign the contract blindly.
His wife lived in the villa. She was twenty-six years old and studied dance. Her smile was gentle and gentle, like a little white flower.
Later she took me to the "Beauty Pavilion", with a massage room in the front and an underground casino in the back. She put on a slit cheongsam and sat at the head seat of the gambling table. Someone was hit on the head and blood was splashed on the carpet. She didn't look back and said, "Pull him out, don't dirty my bed."
That night she squatted beside the massage table, clutching her waist and huddled up, her back soaked with cold sweat. I pressed on the old injury on her waist and felt a layer of old hardness. It was caused by her drunk husband pushing her down the stairs.
She looked up at me with wet eyes: "Xiaoye, you still have time to run away now."
I didn't run. It's not that I don't want to run, it's that I can't run away.
She had plastic surgery, changed her face and married into this family. In order to investigate the car accident seven years ago, the witness became a vegetative state. She endured it for seven years until she had touched every penny of that man.
I helped her with acupuncture to wake up the vegetative state, gave her acupuncture control at the casino, and went to the nursing home late at night to look through old files. She brought me hot milk and peeled eggs for me. She leaned against the door frame and smiled at me under the moonlight - her smile was soft and cold, like a drop of honey on the tip of a knife.
Later I discovered that the biggest pawn in that gambling game was not a real estate boss or a gangster, but her. And the person who should least make the move is me.
She had been playing this game for seven years, and the only thing she missed was that my attraction to her was unplanned.
Now she wants to stop, but I don't want to stop.
