Sell her body?
Gu Shinian mocked herself. She was really going to do that.
She was going to sell her body to the one she loved deeply. The person for whom she used a lifetime of sorrow in exchange for his lifetime of peace and safety.
…
In the city where the headquarters of the SEC Corporation was situated.
A tall and magnificent building that had towered for half a century filled people with fear and reverence at the sight of it.
A noble monarch.
A prince of the underworld.
These were what this tower solemnly represented.
When Gu Shinian appeared at the SEC headquarters, she heard a woman’s sharp and high-pitched voice say, “Gu Shinian, why are you here?”
If she did not remember wrong, this voice was…
When she turned around, true enough, she saw her arch-nemesis.
Lin Wange stomped towards her in her 20 centimeters high-heeled shoes in an imposing manner. She arrogantly pointed at her nose and raised the pitch of her voice.
“It’s really you! Why are you here?”
“Aren’t you afraid of death? You actually dare to appear here?”
That incident many years ago caused a huge stir.
However, the news was blocked in time and very few people knew about it. This woman who seemingly did not have any power had almost caused this empire to collapse.
Lin Wange was one of the people who knew about the matter.
Before Gu Shinian could say a word, Lin Wange spoke again, “You came here to look for Muchen, didn’t you? Gu Shinian, you’re too shameless! You did such a thing and you actually dare to come here!”
In addition, so many people were after her life. Why was she still alive and well?!
Gu Shinian was expressionless. She retorted, resolving the issue with little effort, “So what if I am shameless? I don’t eat rice from your family. I have let down Qin Muchen but I did not let you down.”
