Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 222

“Sheng Nuan, how can you be like this?”

A startled voice rang out, and Sheng Nuan’s eyes brightened as she saw a young woman, beautiful and delicate, dressed in a flowery white ensemble, staring at her in disbelief.

“Nuan Nuan, the Second Young Master is only trying to help. You know his health is weak, how can you push him?”

When Sheng Nuan heard this, she looked sideways and saw a thin man being helped up next to her…

He was dressed in a well-tailored suit, with exquisite features that placed him between youth and adolescence, resembling a prince from a comic… But his face was bloodless, pale and unlike a living person’s, and his slender, fair fingers pressed against the gauze on his forehead, where dark red bl00d was seeping through.

He kept his eyes lowered, and his long, dark eyelashes made his whole person look fragile and pitiful.

The young woman, who had just been looking at Sheng Nuan with reproach, was accompanied by a tall, handsome young man exuding an air of affluence. Both were watching Sheng Nuan, their brows tightly furrowed.

With a sigh, the young woman stepped in front of Sheng Nuan, “Nuan Nuan, the Second Young Master is looking for you to return for your own good. After all, you’re already married, and Chengzhou is your future brother-in-law… It’s inappropriate for you to seek out Chengzhou alone. Even if Sister trusts you, what will others think?”

As soon as the woman finished speaking, it felt as if everything around her had been pressed to a stop, and then the familiar voice of customer service rang out.

“I’m here, I’m here, host, I’ve arrived…”

Due to needing to report on five worlds, customer service was a bit late, but the time for the main system’s portal had already come, so Sheng Nuan had entered the new world ahead of time.

Immediately, customer service began transmitting the world’s plot…

Sheng Nuan exclaimed, “Fake rich daughter? Tsk…”

This world comes from a novel about real and fake daughters called ‘The Return of the Daughter.’ The heroine is the true daughter who was mistakenly taken away from home as a child, while the client entrusted with the task is the fake daughter who occupied the magpie’s nest¹.

The client, Sheng Nuan, is the young lady of the Sheng family, raised with great care and held in the palms of the hands² of her parents and brother since childhood. However, when she was nearly twenty years old, the Sheng family discovered that Sheng Nuan had no bl00d relation to them.

The Sheng family felt as if the sky was about to collapse, and then they crazily began to investigate. Upon investigation, they found out that on the day the child was born, there had been a significant disturbance in the newborn ward of the hospital, and amidst the chaos, the nurse had mistakenly switched the babies.

The advantage of having a clue allowed Sheng Yong’an and Tao Hui to effortlessly retrieve their biological daughter, Su Yue.

When they learned that Su Yue’s adoptive parents had passed away in an accident five years ago, and that Su Yue had been struggling to survive alone for the past few years, seeing their biological daughter’s thin and weak appearance shattered the hearts of the couple and Sheng Muyang, the eldest son of the Sheng family.

In this way, Su Yue returned to the Sheng family as Sheng Yue, transforming into the Sheng family’s eldest daughter.

The original eldest daughter of the Sheng family, Sheng Nuan, became the second miss, while also being viewed by everyone as the fake daughter who had occupied the magpie’s nest for nearly twenty years.

Sheng Nuan had been spoiled and indulged at home, lacking in intelligence, and was unpopular in her social circle, often referred to by others as a “good-for-nothing vase”.

Now, this vase, stripped of her lofty status, faced mockery and attacks from former rivals.

Meanwhile, back at home, her parents and brother only had eyes for the simple and kind-hearted Sheng Yue, who had suffered so much, thoroughly ignoring her.

Even the wealthy heir she had desperately pursued, Ji Chengzhou, the eldest son of the Ji family, had fallen in love at first sight with the real daughter, Sheng Yue, without even giving Sheng Nuan a second glance.

Overnight, Sheng Nuan seemed to have become the extraneous person…

She couldn’t believe that her previously loving parents and brother now didn’t care about her at all. If they truly didn’t care, why did they keep her in the Sheng family?

For this reason, in order to attract her family’s attention, Sheng Nuan deliberately behaved in various ways, particularly by having frequent disputes and conflicts with Sheng Yue.

However, precisely because of her actions, Sheng Yong’an and Tao Hui became increasingly repelled by their adopted daughter, who enjoyed everything that should have belonged to their biological daughter, despite having no bl00d relation to them.

Sheng Nuan’s elder brother, Sheng Muyang, also reprimanded and warned her several times not to bully Sheng Yue.

Though Sheng Nuan felt sad, she still believed that her adoptive parents and brother cared about her… until she was to be married off by the Sheng family to the second young master of the Ji family, Ji Rong.

The Ji family was a powerful conglomerate, but their legitimate heir, Ji Rong, had been weak and sickly since birth, and it was later predicted he would not live past twenty-four.

Consequently, the Ji family had to acknowledge Ji Chengzhou, Ji Rong’s illegitimate son who had been left outside, and they recognized Ji Chengzhou back into the Ji family, raising him as the future heir.

Although the nominal legitimate heir remained the sickly second young master, Ji Rong, everyone knew that the future of the Ji family belonged to Ji Chengzhou.

And the Ji family and the Sheng family already had a marriage contract…

Logically, the marriage contract was supposed to be for the true eldest daughter of the Sheng family, Sheng Yue, to marry the legitimate heir of the Ji family, Ji Rong. However, with Ji Rong’s days numbered, Sheng Yue had fallen in love with the future heir of the Ji family, Ji Chengzhou.

This was why Sheng Yong’an and his wife chose not to send Sheng Nuan away after finding their biological daughter.

In their view, Sheng Nuan had enjoyed everything that should have belonged to their biological daughter, so she naturally had to pay the price… Thus, one evening, the family of four called Sheng Nuan to the living room.

Sheng Nuan was still a little happy at first, thinking that her family had finally realized their neglect of her, and she decided that she would be obedient and treat Sheng Yue as her sister from now on.

However, what awaited her was not the warm scene she had imagined. The family of four sat opposite her, with Sheng Yue sitting between her parents, informing Sheng Nuan that she had two choices: either marry Ji Rong or leave the Sheng family.

“Nuan Nuan, although the second young master of the Ji family is not in good health, he has a gentle temperament, and you won’t be wronged by marrying him.” This was said by the conciliatory Tao Hui.

“The Sheng family has raised you as their daughter for over twenty years. This is what you should do!” This was said by the firm Sheng Yong’an.

“Nuan Nuan, Yue’er has suffered so much, and you are also a daughter of the Sheng family. This is what you owe her.” This was said by her once-loving elder brother, Sheng Muyang.

Finally, Sheng Yue said, “Sister, my feelings for Chengzhou are mutual. If you marry the second young master, we will still be a family in the future…”

They seemed to be discussing it with her, but Sheng Nuan knew she only had one choice.

She had nothing. Leaving the Sheng family meant that those previous rivals could easily crush her like an ant.

In the end, Ji Chengzhou, who had never even looked at her once, also said to her, “Nuan Nuan, I’ve always regarded you as a sister. If you marry my second brother, even if he is no longer here in the future, I will still take care of you…”

Sheng Nuan looked at Ji Chengzhou, whose expression was gentle, and nodded in agreement.

Thus, Sheng Nuan married the docile and sickly Ji Rong.

Although she married Ji Rong, she still secretly admired the handsome and noble Ji Chengzhou, which only fueled her disdain for her sickly and timid husband, Ji Rong.

She took advantage of Ji Rong’s weak character, acting arrogantly in front of him and even subtly bullying him.

While Ji Chengzhou appeared to be graceful and composed on the surface, he secretly loathed the Ji family, especially Ji Rong, because he remembered how, when his mother had brought him to the Ji family as a child, they had trampled on them, particularly Ji Rong’s mother.

Now, Ji Rong’s father was traveling the world with his cancer-stricken wife, and Ji Chengzhou managed everything for the Ji family.

So when Sheng Nuan trampled on and bullied Ji Rong, who was sick and weak, he turned a blind eye and even added fuel to the flames… The servants, sensing the prevailing situation, were even less likely to intervene.

Because of this, the original host became even more unscrupulous, regularly mocking, humiliating, and trampling on Ji Rong…

As a result, Ji Rong’s health deteriorated rapidly, and just as he was on the brink of death, a malevolent spirit invaded his body, turning him into a violent and ferocious being…

The malevolent Ji Rong was no longer the weak and easily bullied person he once was; he became strong and ruthless, first injuring the original host, Sheng Nuan, and throwing her into the street to suffer like a wild dog, enduring a fate worse than death, before dealing with Ji Chengzhou.

Ji Chengzhou was no match for him, and just as he was about to lose, Sheng Yue fortuitously encountered a powerful outsider. With the outsider’s help, they suppressed the malevolent spirit, and Ji Chengzhou emerged victorious.

The evil spirit within Ji Rong was annihilated, and the sickly young master, whose body had been taken over by this evil spirit, passed away within a few days.

The original host, Sheng Nuan, curled up like a wild dog under a bridge one rainy night and breathed her last.

Since she had been kicked out from the Ji family, no one from the Sheng family even thought of rescuing her…

In fact, from the moment their biological daughter was found, Sheng Nuan became merely a tool for marriage. The Sheng family’s tolerance of her was just to allow her to maintain her status as the daughter of the Sheng family, only to marry her off to the fated-to-die Ji Rong…

After receiving the original plot, Sheng Nuan asked customer service: “What are the original host’s requests?”

Customer service replied: “Sever ties with the Sheng family, gain self-respect and independence, and also, prevent Ji Rong from being possessed by the evil spirit.”

Sheng Nuan was somewhat puzzled: “Why go through so much trouble to stop the evil spirit? Wouldn’t it be better to just run away and avoid it?”

Customer service cleared its throat: “Um… Because you’re already married, and the original host has already bullied Ji Rong several times. Now you need to find a way to prevent him from turning into an evil spirit seeking revenge on you… Running away won’t work, which is why this mission exists.”

Sheng Nuan: ……

So she became a married woman upon her arrival, marrying someone who would eventually turn into an evil spirit and kill her…
