Within the lavish villa of the Gu household, the foremost authority of Yangcheng.

Eighteen demure ladies stood at the center of the grand hall, their young figures enveloped in exquisite evening gowns. Their hands were crossed over their flat stomachs as charming smiles played at their beautiful lips.

That night was the wife-selection banquet for the Gu family heir, Gu Yuting.

A prospective bride would be chosen from these eighteen exceptional ladies hailing from all over the country for a trial marriage.

Rumor has it that if a lady were chosen and successfully tied the knot with Gu Yuting, she would receive a dowry of ten million.

However...

In the spacious bedroom on the third floor of the villa, clothes were strewn everywhere, extending from the doorway all the way to the pristine white bed.

The air was occasionally infused with an intoxicating scent, not leaving much to imagination about the passionate encounter that had just happened.

The fierceness of it was evident from the purplish bruises on the girl's fair skin.

"No... I can't take it anymore..."

Ning Meng was extremely tired, feeling unbearably thirsty, hot and uncomfortable.

"Uh..."

My head hurt so much!

She furrowed her eyebrows, massaging her temples, only to find herself completely drained of all energy!

As if a switch was suddenly flipped, her body stiffened as her eyes shot wide open!

Under the dim light of the bedside lamp, Ning Meng saw the strange man lying next to her.

She wanted to scream, to shout, but overwhelming fear rendered her mute!

It was over!

She was done for!

She had slept with a stranger, and what's more, it happened in the Gu household. Who was this man, and how could they...?

As she watched the man sound asleep in front of her, in that instant, Ning Meng wanted to grab a vase and smash it on him!

"Thud..."

Suddenly, Ning Meng felt a whirl of dizziness and a pain in her abdomen. The man, who had somehow woken up without her knowing, had kicked her off the bed onto the floor.

"Ah..."

Ning Meng cried out in shock. This man, this man was absolutely ruthless!

Before she had the chance to figure out who he was, she watched as the man slowly sat up on the bed, a storm brewing in his narrow eyes, his thin lips pressed into a line.

His gaze was as fierce as a beast after its prey, intent on ripping her apart on the spot.

Ning Meng had never seen a man so terrifying before.

His delicate features were as stunning as a celestial being, but his temperament was akin to a demon.

With a slight smirk on his lips and a wicked gleam in his eyes, he said disdainfully, "So eager to be the Gu family's young mistress? With your tactics? You think this young master would take a liking to you?"

"The Miss of the Gu family?"

Ning Meng's eyes widened, the man in front of her is...

Could he be... Gu Yuting, the Gu family's heir?

Today is Gu Yuting's wife-selection banquet. How could she... wake up in his bed?

Wuu wuu...

She was on the verge of crying, completely devastated.

But she still bravely stated, "I don't know how this happened, it's true. I don't want to be the Miss of the Gu family, I didn't deceive you."

"Heh..." he snorted coldly, suddenly getting out of bed. He walked towards her, long legs striding, his waist barely covered with a towel.

His well-built eight-pack, the sexy clavicle exposed provocatively, stimulating Ning Meng’s vision.

She tried to back away, but he still scooped her up and brought her back to bed.

His cold, bloodthirsty voice echoed again. "Let's do it once more, and let this young master see whether you want to or not."

Gu Yuting didn’t even give Ning Meng the chance to react, he stripped her clean!

Just like a hellish Asura, dominating her entirely.

"Let me go! Let me go, you bastard! You're a bastard!" Ning Meng continued to struggle fiercely.

Let her go?

Daring to drug him and even climbing into his bed, now she even dares call him a scumbag?

"Click——"

The door suddenly opens from the outside!

Gu Yuting pauses at his movements, and almost immediately, a smile emerges on his lips.

That smile, lingering at the corner of his mouth, is like a blooming mandrake, bewitching and wickedly charming.

Ning Meng's heart skips a beat, her face suddenly turns pale as snow.

This is bad!

"Yuting, the banquet has begun, everyone is…"

An old but strong voice halts mid-sentence.

Grandpa Gu, Gu Changfeng stands at the door, observing the scene in the room.

Behind him, there are also some servants.

Even Ning Meng's grandmother, Wu Huijun, is there, standing slightly to the right rear of Gu Changfeng.

Countless pairs of eyes, sharp as arrows, are all shooting towards Ning Meng with a "whoosh" sound!
