The lanterns are on.

The room was lit with an ambiguous warm yellow light. Under the light, on the wide double bed, was a pair of men and women entangled in love.

The two of them were disheveled, and their heavy breathing was infinitely magnified, adding a touch of heat and desire to the already ambiguous atmosphere.

Lu Ranran just felt like there was a fire burning in her body.

"Ran Ran..." The man's deep and sexy voice was like an aphrodisiac.

In the dimness, Lu Ranran only felt a flash of white light flash through his mind...

Lu Ranran suddenly woke up from her dream.

It was not until her eyes slowly adjusted to the light and her body began to feel a little uncomfortable that Lu Ranran realized that she had had that dream again.

A year ago, Lu Ranran was drugged by her cousin Lu Keke and nearly lost her virginity to a strange man. The next day, Lu Keke, who thought her evil plan had succeeded, took her uncle and aunt to catch the adulterer, but saw Lu Ranran, who was well dressed and sleepy, with a wonderful expression on her face.

No matter how much she didn't believe it, Lu Keke couldn't find any clues to prove that she had lost her virginity.

But Lu Keke's father felt ashamed because of this. Not only did he put Lu Ranran under house arrest, he also wanted to kick her out of the house for "insulting the family tradition."

Fortunately, Aunt Chu Yue stopped him.

"Ran Ran is still an unmarried girl. If you kick her out of the house, her reputation will be ruined. How will she get married in the future?"

"Ran Ran, how about..." Chu Yue quietly suggested, "Auntie take you to the hospital for a check-up?"

"Auntie doesn't mean anything else. She's just worried about your health."

Seeing Chu Yue being so sincere, Lu Ranran looked innocent.

"Uncle and aunt, are you okay?"

"I just took a nap. Why are you so nervous? Did something big happen?"

He looked invulnerable, and it was obvious that he was convinced that there was no evidence against the few people.

In the end, the incident ended with Lu Ranran being grounded for a month.

There is no other way. As an orphan whose parents have both passed away, Lu Ranran must "survive" if he wants to survive.

This was the great truth she learned from the rumors about the Lu family.

The Shen family of Nancheng is the most prominent family in Nancheng with a military and political background. Their old house is an ancient building called "Shen Mansion".

Today, the Shen family is the largest real estate developer in Nancheng, and their ancestor is also one of the founders of the famous Nancheng University.

The Lu family, relying on the Shen family, became a famous supplier of building materials in South City, and was often called a "nouveau riche" behind their backs.

Whether you are from a famous family or a nouveau riche, the most important thing is to survive, isn't it?

But today may be the day that Lu Ranran can change his destiny.

Her childhood sweetheart Shen Beiyu actually proposed to marry her!

Although Lu Ranran doesn't like Shen Beiyu, she doesn't hate him either. The Shen family can suppress the Lu family to a certain extent. Isn't "marriage" another way to survive?

"Boom boom boom!"

The sudden knock on the door brought Lu Ranran back from his thoughts.

The voice of Lu family's nanny, Sister Liu, came from outside the door.

"Miss, the master and mistress asked me to call you for lunch. The eldest lady is here too."

Obviously, Lu Ranran should be the "eldest lady" in terms of age. But Lu Keke didn't want to, saying that this was her family and she was the eldest lady, and forcibly took away the title.

Lu Keke's mother, Chu Yue, was very sorry about this.

"Coco is such a spoiled person. If you are unhappy, I will ask her to apologize to you."

Chu Yue is Lu Ranran’s mother, An Ning’s college classmate, and also the most “kind” person.

After all, she has to survive, and it's just a title, so what does it matter who is the eldest lady?

Lu Ranran looked at herself in the mirror. Her face was as white as a peach, her skin was whiter than snow, her eyes were round and almond-shaped, and her eyebrows and nose were well-shaped. Each part seemed unremarkable when taken alone, but when put together, they were naturally harmonious and had a unique beauty.

She tidied herself up briefly, automatically ignored the abnormality in Sister Liu's words, pushed the door and walked downstairs.

Before she even got close to the restaurant, she heard Lawrence Lu's scolding from afar. When Lu Ranran walked to the door of the restaurant, she happened to run into the protagonist who had just been scolded - Lu Li.

The two didn't speak, but before Lu Li left, he glanced at Lu Ranran with sympathy in his eyes.

Before she could figure out what he was sympathizing with, Chu Yue in the restaurant saw Lu Ranran.

She smiled gently and waved to Lu Ranran.

"Ran Ran, come and sit next to your aunt."

Lu Zhongyuan, who was sitting in the main seat, snorted coldly and didn't give Lu Ranran a good look.

Lu Keke on the side said in a strange voice:

"The one who ruined the family reputation is here~"

"Sister Ran, what does it feel like to eat with the servants?"

Ever since that incident, Lu Ranran, who was considered the black sheep of the family, was not allowed to sit at the table for dinner.

Lu Ranran was not angry. After sitting down, she curled her lips and responded:

"It's been a long time since we last met, Coco. You seem to have gained weight?"

"you!"

Furious, Lu Keke quickly grabbed Lawrence Lu and acted like a spoiled child:

"Dad, look at her~~"

"Stop making trouble!" Lu Zhongyuan was obviously in a bad mood and was in no mood to pay attention to Lu Keke.

Chu Yue tried to smooth things over.

"Alright, alright, you two, what's there to quarrel about?"

"Don't we have an important announcement today? Don't steal Ranran's limelight."

My business?

Lu Ranran couldn't help but think of Shen Beiyu's promise, and her heart couldn't help but speed up. It wasn't because of love, but because of escape.

Chu Yue turned around, her eyes full of maternal love, and lovingly tucked Lu Ranran's hair behind her ears.

"In the blink of an eye, Ranran has grown up so big and has become a big girl..."

Lu Ranran suppressed the nausea in her heart, forced herself to curl the corners of her mouth, and smiled obediently.

Lu Keke on the opposite side slammed the metal fork onto the plate and said coquettishly:

"Mom, why don't you care about me?"

Chu Yue scolded, "You are already a grown-up girl, and you are still arguing here. Aren't you ashamed?"

"Besides, you also received it..."

Lu Keke's face turned red.

Lu Ranran couldn't help but wonder, what did Lu Keke receive? Could it be...

"Okay, I won't beat around the bush with you." Chu Yue held Lu Ranran's hand affectionately and said solemnly, "Someone came to the Lu family to propose marriage, and the target is you."

Chu Yue paused, looked back at Lawrence Lu, and then looked back at Lu Ranran.

"Your uncle and I have already agreed."

Agree? They weren't even her parents, so how could they agree on her behalf?

But the target is Shen Beiyu, that is -

"Ran Ran, you will be the daughter-in-law of the Zhang family soon."

"So you and Zhang Heng have already..."

"Zhang Heng?!" Lu Ranran screamed.

Zhang Heng?! The notorious "rapist" who relied on his father for support?!

How could it be him!

Lu Ranran had a lot of questions in her mind but she hadn't asked them yet. Instead, Chu Yue looked at Lu Ranran with her eyes slightly wide open.

"Ran Ran, isn't it you——"

Chu Yue covered her mouth in disbelief.

Lu Keke sneered and said disdainfully:

"Why are you pretending? If you don't know him, why would he come to propose marriage?"

"He's a rapist, he's not worthy of a fickle person like you."

"This is just right. We have eliminated harm for the people."

Lu Ranran's heart gradually cooled.

"Where's Shen Beiyu?"

Lu Keke stood up excitedly, pointed at Lu Ranran's nose and said angrily:

"What qualifications do you have to mention Brother Beiyu!"

Chu Yue glanced at Lu Keke, then turned to look at Lu Ranran with a worried look.

"Bei Yu also proposed marriage, but the partner is..."

"It's Coco."

Lu Ranran was so angry that she laughed.

What a Shen Beiyu! How dare he cheat her?!

"I won't marry."

Soon, Lu Ranran calmed down and decisively rejected this so-called "marriage proposal."
