Chapter 4: Playing Possum Once Asleep?

Chapter 4: Chapter 4: Playing Possum Once Asleep?Su Jin closed her eyes, concealing all the thoughts in her heart.

As Su Jin, she had already died on that hospital bed. From that moment on, the world no longer had anyone named Su Jin.

And the owner of this body, the one Lu Qing referred to as Qin Miaomiao, could be said to be the luckiest person. Due to an old-fashioned arranged marriage by their elders, she married the most powerful man in City A, the commanding and formidable king, Lu Qing.

Yet, she was also pitiable. From a young age, she was excluded by her family, her only value being a mere bargaining chip to secure the Lu Family's support for the Qin Family.

But she was ultimately just a foolish little girl, yearning to break free from her family's shackles, seeking to prove herself, desperately trying to hold onto this man before her, but using all the wrong methods.

Although she had become Mrs. Lu, she had never felt even a shred of security. Whenever any woman appeared around Lu Qing, even if it was merely a business client, she would spiral into a frenzy of jealousy, creating chaos that would shake the entire city.

In the end, yet again, because of a woman who was only a client, her jealousy erupted. In her fit of jealousy, she drank alone, encountered hooligans who assaulted her, fought desperately to escape, but was accidentally struck by a passing street racer. Severely injured, blind, and reduced to a vegetative state, she left this world soon after, taking regret with her.

Now, Su Jin had become the owner of this body, reborn with the hatred from her past life in this new vessel.

Since heaven had given her a second chance, she would reclaim everything she once lost and personally seek revenge against all who had wronged her.

She would also ensure that the name Qin Miaomiao became legendary in City A, becoming someone others looked up to and revered.

This would count as compensation for the unfortunate girl.

When she opened her eyes again, Qin Miaomiao tucked away the hatred and determination in her heart, and 'uneasily' looked toward Lu Qing—just as his gaze subtly landed on her.

In the instant their eyes met, Qin Miaomiao felt as though her soul had been penetrated, frozen to its core. Her entire body trembled involuntarily.

Before she could speak, he tossed a document onto the table before her.

"Sign it."

Looking closely, it was actually a divorce agreement!

In the instant their eyes met, Qin Miaomiao's body shivered uncontrollably. Though she had weathered many storms in her previous life, she could not help but feel a trace of fear before those eyes, as if her very soul had been pierced and rendered icy cold.

Regarding the Lu Family and Lu Qing, back in her past life as Su Jin, their names had resounded in her ears countless times. But she'd never imagined that one day she would meet this enigmatic and elusive man in such a fashion.

The Lu Family was the number one family in City A, standing far above the other elite families. In City A, their word was law. Even a branch of the Lu Family could use its name to command the winds and rain outside.

And Lu Qing was the helm of this preeminent family. The rumors painted him as ruthless and domineering, someone who held sway in both the underworld and the business world. Even political figures had to tread carefully around him.

Though the rumors depicted him as an invincible force, he kept a low profile, so secretive that no one had ever seen his true face—only his terrifying reputation preceded him.

Yet in this moment, Qin Miaomiao never imagined her first meeting with him would be so awkward: as a discarded Mrs. Lu initiating a divorce.

Fate, truly, had played a cruel trick.

Taking a deep breath to steady herself against the oppression radiating from Lu Qing, Qin Miaomiao raised her gaze to this most powerful man. Her eyes, initially lifeless, now sparkled with brilliance. Even Lu Qing couldn't help but take a few more glances.
