Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 223

She just came here and was already a married woman, and the person she married would later turn into a malicious spirit and kill her. Sheng Nuan took a deep breath, “Choose a buff, then.”

If there were evil spirits in this world, surely there was more than one. To stop these spirits, she’d need…

Sheng Nuan swiped through the interface, looking for options but only found one called “Physical Exorcism.”

She asked customer service: “What’s physical exorcism?”

Customer service replied reluctantly: “It’s using physical methods to achieve the purpose of exorcising evil spirits…”

Sheng Nuan understood. “Alright, that’ll do.”

This physical exorcism overlapped with martial arts skills, so Sheng Nuan chose to keep her Lucky Koi Physique. As for white skin and beautiful face—well, the original host of this world was already very beautiful… (^_)☆

In the next moment, everything before her returned to normal. All those frozen in time resumed motion, and Sheng Nuan became fully aware of her situation.

The original host attended a banquet with Ji Rong and happened to encounter Ji Chengzhou, who was engaged to Sheng Yue. The original host still hadn’t let go of him, so she took the opportunity to approach him, only to be seen by Sheng Yue.

Sheng Yue intentionally brought Ji Rong over, resulting in Ji Rong witnessing his previously arrogant wife fawning over his illegitimate brother.

He tried to persuade Sheng Nuan to leave nicely, but she, enraged and humiliated, shoved him, causing him to hit his head. This led to the current mess… Sheng Nuan was publicly shamed by Sheng Yue, who pretended to show concern while insinuating that she was seducing her future brother-in-law.

The second young master of the Ji family, with a head injury and covered in bl00d, further solidified Sheng Nuan’s reputation as a shameless and domineering woman…

Everyone at the banquet was from the same social circle, and they were all eagerly watching the scene unfold.

Sheng Yong’an and Tao Hui rushed over after hearing the news. When they saw the situation in front of them, their faces turned livid. They pointed at Sheng Nuan and cursed, “You disgraceful child, you still won’t admit your mistake!”

Sheng Nuan stood alone in the middle, isolated against everyone else…

“Disgraceful?” She suddenly laughed, staring intently at Sheng Yong’an and Tao Hui.

“That’s right. Because I’m not your biological daughter, I’m not even worthy of being treated like a person anymore. I only deserve to be called a disgrace, is that it?”

Sheng Yong’an’s face darkened, “After doing something so shameless, you still have the nerve to question us?”

“Shameless?”

Sheng Nuan stepped forward, raising her voice, “In broad daylight, on a terrace where people are coming and going, what shameless act could I possibly have done? Assaulted this so-called future brother-in-law?”

Tao Yong’an stiffened. “What are you talking about?”

“Am I wrong?”

Sheng Nuan scoffed, “Ever since you two found your real daughter, I’ve been nothing but a thorn in your flesh. Everyone knows I once liked Ji Chengzhou, but I know I’m married now. I only came to apologize and to make things clear, hoping we could interact normally in the future so he wouldn’t avoid me like the plague… Is that wrong?”

The onlookers were stunned.

To make things clear? So it wasn’t seduction?

Sheng Nuan has a flamboyant and domineering personality, but she never bothers to lie, nor is she someone who would do anything she can’t take responsibility for… Because of this, most people around her believe her words.

After all, she wasn’t wrong. In broad daylight, surrounded by people, what could she possibly have done?

However, looking at it like this, it seems that the Sheng family really doesn’t treat their adopted daughter well, quick to nail her to the pillar of shame without considering the circumstances.

Sheng Yong’an’s expression turned unpleasant, and for a moment, he didn’t know what to say. At that moment, Tao Hui, standing beside him, spoke up.

She smiled helplessly, “This child, your father just got anxious and acted out of concern. He didn’t mean anything else. What thorn in the flesh? You’re still a daughter of the Sheng family.”

Sheng Nuan laughed self-mockingly, “You two elders still need me to live with the Ji family’s second young master in place of your biological daughter, so of course, you have to keep me around.”

Tao Hui’s face stiffened.

Was this adopted daughter crazy today, challenging them in front of so many people?

Around them, murmurs arose, and Sheng Yue stepped forward with a gentle and helpless expression, “Nuan Nuan, how can you speak to Mom and Dad like this? We’re family.”

Sheng Nuan turned her head and smiled, “Yes, family. So when you saw me here, you brought my husband over without a second thought to see me standing with your fiancé… as if you were afraid he wouldn’t know I was meeting someone in private. What a loving family!”

Sheng Yue’s expression froze, “I-I only wanted to help the second young master find you…”

Sheng Nuan sneered, “Really?”

“Enough!” A cold voice rang out as the tall and stern Sheng Muyang strode over, looking coldly at Sheng Nuan. “Is this how you speak to the parents who raised you for twenty years?”

The original host used to admire this brother the most. Whenever Sheng Muyang spoke, she would always listen and was unfailingly obedient.

But now, Sheng Nuan looked straight at him, curling her lips, “So, marrying off your precious Sheng Yue at the expense of my own marriage isn’t enough to repay the kindness of upbringing, is it? Then, please tell me—what will it take to pay it off? Just let me know, and I’ll do my best to fulfill it!”

Sheng Muyang was stunned for a moment.

At the same time, everyone around was also dumbfounded.

Why does it sound like this fake daughter is going to sever ties with the Sheng family?

Sheng Muyang gritted his teeth, “Sheng Nuan, have you caused enough trouble?”

Across from him, Sheng Yong’an and Tao Hui also looked distressed…

Sheng Nuan looked at them, then glanced around at everyone present, smiling, “Well then, let’s leave it at this for today. Whenever Mr. Sheng and Madam Sheng decide how you want me to repay you, just let me know.”

With that, she turned and walked past Ji Rong, who was still sitting on a chair, supported by others. Sheng Nuan glanced at him and said, “I only shook you off earlier, I didn’t mean to push you. I didn’t intend for you to get hurt.”

Ji Rong looked up and said softly, “It’s okay, I’m fine.”

He looked slightly uneasy, “Don’t let it bother you…”

People around sighed… this legitimate heir of a wealthy family was indeed extremely weak.

Sheng Nuan laughed, a smile tinged with sadness yet with a sense of relief, “How could I not care? You are my husband. I’ve made up my mind to cut ties with my past self. From now on, I’ll devote myself to you wholeheartedly, yet you let a few words from another woman provoke you into making me look bad and ruin my reputation… Ji Rong, you have betrayed my sincerity!”

The gentle and timid Ji Rong was suddenly confused. “I…”

But Sheng Nuan didn’t give him a chance to explain. She turned around and walked away in her high heels without looking back, leaving everyone with a thin yet unyielding back.

Desolate, but proud…

Customer service tutted.

Brilliant… In just one round of beating and maneuvering, the once domineering and shameless woman who seduced her brother-in-law and humiliated her husband had now turned into a beautiful but tragic figure, abandoned by her adoptive parents and mistrusted by her husband…

Sheng Yue caught the expressions of those around her, lowered her eyes, and secretly gritted her teeth.

Why did it seem like something was different about Sheng Nuan? That fool actually dared to challenge Mom, Dad, and her brother?

Could it be that she really wants to break away from the Sheng family?

How could that be… If she had the courage, she would have left long ago when everyone in the Sheng family ignored her…

But it doesn’t matter, that fool has so many flaws. If she wants to completely ruin her reputation, there will always be another chance…
