On our wedding night, my vegetative husband suddenly kissed me.

Chapter 1: Crossroads of Destiny: Dying and New Life In the mansion that once symbolized splendor and glory, the light from the crystal chandelier still shone brightly, but it could no longer illuminate the child's bleak eyes. She sat quietly under the lamp, the air around her seemed to have frozen, the laughter and bustle of the past seemed to be still echoing in her ears, but now, there was only endless loneliness and sadness. "Miss, the bank's people are here."Butler Lao Hu's voice broke the suffocating silence, with a few moments of sorrow and reluctance. Tong Yan mechanically raised her head, her eyes empty as she looked around this home she had lived in for twenty years, nodding stiffly. Every corner carried the laughter of her childhood, the shyness of her youth, and the bits and pieces of her growth, and now, all of this would be in the past. Three days ago, that nightmare-like disaster came, and the Tong Group declared bankruptcy without warning. In an instant, the whole world was turned upside down. With the mysterious disappearance of his father and the despairing suicide of his mother, the Hemlock Child family, the towering tree in Jiangcheng that had stood for hundreds of years, collapsed into ruins. The mansion that was once a marketplace is now cold and quiet, leaving only crumbling walls and shattered memories. Old Hu silently moved the suitcase in front of her, this simple action, but it seems to ring the death knell of fate. The servants who used to shuttle between the mansion have long gone their separate ways, and now, in this empty house, only her lonely figure remains, like a leaf in the wind, drifting without support. Stepping out of the mansion, the raindrops on the grape leaves in the courtyard glittered with crystal light under the morning sunlight, as if they were tears of the past years. The August sun was blazing, it should be a season full of vigor and vitality, but Tong Yan only felt a coldness around her body, the coldness from the soles of her feet straight to the bottom of her heart, so that she could not help but shiver. She gripped the handle of the suitcase tightly, nails white from the force, straightened her spine, walked forward firmly step by step, did not dare to turn back, fearing that a glance would drown her in endless memories and sadness. Outside the door, the bank's staff had been waiting for a long time. Tong Yan went forward, numbly signed his name, that once elegant and confident handwriting, at this moment also seems to be colored with a few points of sadness. Hesitating for a moment, she still asked softly, "When will this house ...... probably be auctioned?" The staff raised his head and was instantly attracted by the bright and beautiful woman in front of him. Even though she was now dressed in plain clothes, it was hard to hide that innate noble temperament. He returned to his senses and replied politely, "It is expected in half a year, miss." "Hmph, I heard that the market price of this house is thirty million dollars, but nowadays, Miss Tong is afraid that she can't even get the money to buy a pancake fruit, right?"A piercing taunt came from the roadside sports car, like a sharp blade, stabbing straight into Tong Yan's heart. Tong Yan coldly turned her head, only to see Xiao Nan and his companions getting out of the car, a smug smile on their faces as they approached her step by step. The moment Xiao Nan's gaze landed on Tong Yan, a hint of amazement flashed in his eyes, and it was as if that gaze was going to penetrate her. At one time, he had been haunted by this beautiful face and pursued her for three whole years, but he had never gotten even a single positive look from her. Now, seeing the once high and mighty Miss Tong's family in such a state of despair, a thrill of revenge welled up in his heart. Tong Yan glanced at him with disdain, her eyes filled with indifference and contempt. She didn't want to waste a single moment with this kind of person and turned around to leave, leaving all these unpleasant people and things behind. "Tong Yan, you're not even as good as a broken hen now, what are you proud of."Ji Ya held the man beside her, her face with a victorious stance, but her heart was full of jealousy and resentment. She, too, was the daughter of a rich family, the pearl of the Ji Clan, and had lived under the shadow of the Tong sisters since she was a child. Whether in school or in social occasions, the gazes of the people around her were always attracted by the beautiful faces of the Tong family sisters, and Tong Yan, moreover, was the object that they talked about the most in their mouths. This time, she was here to see with her own eyes how Tong Yan, who had shed the aura of the Tong Clan, could still maintain the scenery of that first lady in Jiang Cheng. "The Tong family's properties have all been taken by the bank, you are now alone and pathetic, why don't you follow me, and save you from sleeping on the streets tonight."Xiao Nan's eyes flashed with greed and desire, for this woman in front of him, he just took one look and could no longer take his eyes off her. Seeing this, Ji Ya, who was beside him, was so angry that she stomped her feet and kept pulling his arm, but Xiao Nan seemed to be obsessed, his eyes staring at Tong Yan. In his eyes, at this moment, Tong Yan was like a rose blooming in the dark night, delicate and dangerous, emitting a fatal attraction. Xiao Nan couldn't help but reach out his hand, wanting to touch that longed-for face, but just at the moment his hand was about to touch Tong Yan, a soft little hand clasped his wrist like lightning. Tong Yan's eyes were cold, his hand slightly exerted force, Xiao Nan immediately screamed in pain, his body uncontrollably fell to sit on the ground. "Tong Yan you even hit someone, be careful I'll call the police."Xiao Nan sat on the ground and screamed in a sorry state. "As you wish."Tong Yan coldly spat out two words, turned around and walked towards the end of the road, behind her Ji Ya's shouting and cursing faded into a blur, she no longer had the heart to pay attention to these irrelevant people. At this moment, her heart was in turmoil, the road ahead was uncertain, she didn't know where to go. Half an hour later, Tong Yan's cell phone suddenly rang, breaking her contemplation. She numbly picked up the phone, and an unfamiliar but calm voice came from the other end of the line, "We are very sincere, please Ms. Tong Yan can consider it well." Tong Yan was slightly stunned, then she hooked her lips, and the tear mole under her eyes was red and demonic, as if it was a burning flame. Without hesitation, she replied, "I promise!" Soon, she received an address on her cell phone, which was in another villa not far from the Tong family. The gears of fate quietly turned at this moment, someone wanted to take her as a daughter-in-law, and she, at this desperate moment, chose to marry! This is a big gamble, she does not know what will be waiting for her, but at this moment, she has no way back.
