Time goes back to the autumn of 2015. Evelyn sat quietly on the train heading to Haicheng, her thoughts drifting away with the turning of the wheels. Nine years ago, she was abandoned in the countryside, but now she was called back because of a sudden marriage. In order to save the seriously ill groom, the Smith family did not hesitate to marry her, who had been fostered in the countryside, to Youlan Garden as a tool for getting married.
On the sleeper berth of the train, Evelyn held a book in her hand, immersed in the ocean of knowledge, trying to forget the upcoming fate. However, fate came quietly at this moment. The door of the carriage was suddenly pushed open, and a biting cold wind mixed with the sweet smell of blood blew in her face. Evelyn looked up and saw a tall and handsome body collapsed and then lost consciousness.
Then, several men in black entered, their eyes revealing strong murderous intent. "Boss, there's no one here now, it's a good time to strike." The leader's voice was cold and resolute. However, their plan was changed by Evelyn 's presence.
Evelyn was keenly aware of the danger, but she remained calm, just looking at them with horrified eyes, begging for mercy in a trembling voice: "Don't hurt me, I didn't see anything." Her weakness and helplessness made the scarred man have evil thoughts and tried to do something bad to her.
However, just as the scarred man reached out to pull Evelyn's button, a slender white hand quietly grasped his wrist. A cold light flashed in Evelyn 's eyes, and she stabbed a sharp silver needle into the scarred man's head with lightning speed. The scarred man fell to the ground and lost consciousness.
This scene shocked the black-clad men present. They tried to step forward, but were subdued one by one by the mysterious man who suddenly woke up. Evelyn sat up and her eyes met the man's. He had a pair of narrow eyes as deep as an eagle's, as if he could see into people's hearts. There was an endless abyss hidden in his eyes, which made people dare not look directly at him.
"Master, we are late." As the rescuers arrived, the man wiped his hands gracefully and walked slowly towards Evelyn . He pinched her jaw, his voice low and magnetic: "How do you think I will deal with you?"
Evelyn was forced to look at him, feeling his strong and cold aura. She knew that she had seen something she shouldn't have seen, and it was not easy to get away with it. So, she decided to take a gamble: "How dare you! I am the bride who will marry into Youlan Garden!"
The man was startled when he heard this, and then he showed an interested look. He released his hand that was pinching Evelyn's chin and said slowly, "You are from Haicheng? Then you should know the news that the daughter of the Smith family is going to marry into Youlan Garden. This wedding has caused a sensation in the whole city. Are you the bride?"
Evelyn took the opportunity to break free and said seriously, "That's right. If something happens to me, do you think you will get into more trouble? Let me go, I didn't see anything and I won't say anything." The man stared at her with a hint of admiration in his eyes. Today he was robbed and killed by his business rival, and meeting this girl was purely accidental. But her clear and intelligent eyes, as well as the wit and courage she showed, made him very interested in her. What's more, she was his bride.
Finally, the man led his people away, leaving Evelyn alone to breathe. She slowly loosened her tightly clenched fingertips, secretly glad that she won the bet. However, the man in front of her suddenly turned around and slowly said in lip language: "We will meet again soon."
…
In the Ligong Manor, the Smith family ’s wedding was in full swing. In the bride’s lounge, Butterfly looked at Evelyn in the mirror and taunted her maliciously: “Evelyn , your mother died when you were nine years old, and you pushed your grandfather down the stairs with your own hands. The fortune teller said that you were a disaster star, and your father sent you to the countryside. If you hadn’t come back to bring good luck this time, you would have stayed in the countryside for the rest of your life. So you have to know your time, you are not the daughter of the Smith family, but a dog raised by the Smith family!”
Evelyn sat in front of the dressing table and responded calmly: "Who are you, the dog, barking at?" Butterfly was so angry that she put her hands on her hips and yelled: "The dog is barking at you!" Evelyn chuckled: "I know, so you don't have to bark anymore."
Butterfly realized that she had been tricked by Evelyn . She looked at Evelyn 's clear eyes with jealousy . Although Evelyn had been wearing a veil, her eyes seemed to reveal her stunning beauty. Butterfly hated her secretly, but could do nothing about it.
At this moment, Ethan and Jasmine came in with a group of distinguished guests. "Evelyn, the auspicious time has come, we can set off!" Their words were full of anticipation and joy. Evelyn took a deep breath and embarked on a new chapter of her destiny.
