Twenty-two years old, a junior in college. Her parents had died one after another in a car accident a year ago, leaving her all alone.

Fortunately, before her parents passed away, they had arranged an enviable marriage for her.

Unfortunately, that very marriage had also set her on the path to a tragic life.

Her fiancé, Qin Yu, was the only son of the Qin family's second son, one of the top families in B City. Handsome and wealthy, he had both looks and family background.

Most precious of all, Qin Yu was gentle, refined, and easygoing. He would never fool around like those rich second-generation heirs nowadays.

He had only ever dated one woman—Su Qiao—and was so devoted that every woman wanted to throw herself at him.

The Su and Qin families' marriage alliance had made countless people green with envy.

In everyone's eyes, the Su family must have accumulated virtue in their ancestors' lives and had smoke rising from their ancestral graves, which was why they had managed to marry into such a family.

However, not long after their wedding, Su Qiao learned that everything had been fake. Her life had been nothing but a complete joke.

Her husband, handsome, wealthy, exceptionally capable, and seemingly devoted to her in everyone's eyes, had actually long since had his own White Moonlight in his heart.

That woman was Guo Family's stepdaughter, Guo Xiaoyu. Su Qiao was nothing more than a shield.

Not only that, but her parents' deaths, the company of the Su family that had been swallowed up, and the car accident a month before the wedding that had left her with one broken leg—all of it was connected to them.

Unfortunately, by then, Su Qiao had already been powerless.

With one leg broken, she could only sit in a wheelchair every day, while her life and death were in the hands of others.

What she found most unbearable was that Guo Xiaoyu had actually wanted Lu Yong, the son of Guo Family's butler, to rape her simply because she was jealous.

Unwilling to suffer such humiliation, Su Qiao had killed herself to preserve her chastity.

She had left this filthy world carrying overwhelming resentment and hatred.

No wonder the man's voice had sounded so familiar to her just now. So it had been this beast.

Host, Host, please don't do anything rash. This is a society governed by law. You can't just kill people. Killing someone means going to prison...

Feeling the powerful killing intent within her host, 444 trembled in fear.

It had originally thought that since the host had been refined into a Medicine Person from childhood and locked away in the remote mountains, she would surely be very innocent. It had never expected... her to be so vicious.

"Go to prison?"

Su Qiao gave a cold laugh inwardly.

Hah, if killing people really meant going to prison, then why had no one gone to prison when the original body's entire family had died so horribly?

However, killing them now would indeed be troublesome.

Besides, killing this idiot, Guo Min, would be useless. She had merely been manipulated by her cunning stepsister.

If she killed her, she might even be doing that woman Guo Xiaoyu a favor.

Still, although death was avoidable, punishment in life was not.

She didn't mind collecting a little interest first.

Just as she was thinking this, Su Qiao sensed the bed shake.

She knew that Lu Yong had climbed onto the bed.

Now!

Su Qiao's eyes snapped open. With a sudden kip-up, she sprang into the air like a nimble leopard.

In an instant, she pinned Lu Yong, who had been preparing to strip her, beneath her knees.

Without giving him any time to react, she snatched the syringe from his hand and drove it down viciously.

"Ah!"

A sharp pain flared in his neck. Lu Yong let out a scream and collapsed face-down on the bed, frantically struggling to pull the syringe from his neck.

The liquid inside had already been injected into his body, so Su Qiao ignored him.

She shook her slightly dizzy head and charged toward Guo Min, who was staring wide-eyed and screaming in terror.

"You... what are you trying to do?"

Guo Min had never expected Su Qiao to still be able to get up at a time like this.

Earlier, she had bribed one of Su Qiao's classmates and gotten that classmate to force-feed her quite a lot of alcohol at her birthday party.
