Rebirth: Little Transparent Becomes Group Pet

My name is Du Mingyue, the daughter of the Du Group. While my company isn't a publicly listed giant, I live a comfortable life, never worrying about food or clothing. Every day I spend time hanging out with my friends in my circle and getting dressed up. I've had a few boyfriends before, but most of them were attracted to my looks or my family's wealth.

That day, my sisters invited me to another party. They told me it was a social gathering for my inner circle, and that several young men from similar family backgrounds would be attending. I was a bit surprised and curious to hear this news. After all, such gatherings weren't common for people like us in our social circle.

I began to imagine what those young men looked like. They might possess elegant manners, noble temperaments, and exceptional taste. Perhaps they would wear stylish and exquisite clothing, showcasing their unique personal charm. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look forward to this gathering.

However, I also realized that such gatherings can be somewhat stressful and competitive. After all, everyone wants to put their best foot forward and gain more attention and recognition. Regardless, I decided to attend the gathering with an open mind, enjoy the fun, and build good relationships with my new friends.

When we entered the party, there were a few men dressed alright, but I didn't like them and they didn't look wealthy enough. As the party was winding down, someone walked in and caused a stir. I pulled over a girl next to me and asked, "Who is this?"

"Don't you know him? His name is Cheng Lang. He is the eldest son of the Cheng family. His family is also a branch of the Ou family, so he is very famous in our circle!" The little sister also introduced him to her like a fan.

Cheng Lang? She had never heard of the name, but she had heard of the Ou family, one of the four great families in City M. If he was a branch of their family, his wealth would be quite good. After careful consideration, she finally made a decision - this man named Cheng Lang would be her target! He exuded a unique charm and mysterious aura that drew her in. She knew it might bring some risks, but deep down, a strong urge drove her to explore the story behind this man. So, she began to make plans, preparing to embark on a journey full of challenges and adventures...

First, when everyone was surrounding him, I didn't go over to him but observed him from a distance. After everyone had dispersed, Cheng Lang spotted me eating in the corner and came over to say hello. "Hello! My name is Cheng Lang. What's your name?"

Cheng Lang felt that this girl was very special. Everyone, male or female, came to curry favor with her and flatter her, but she was the only one who was eating without any concern!

"Oh! Hello! My name is Du Mingyue." I introduced myself to him concisely and clearly with a smile. My voice was crisp and confident, as if to let the whole world know my name. At this moment, I felt like a shining star, emitting a unique light.

Very good, this girl is very confident in herself! Cheng Lang likes this kind of girl.

"Du Mingyue! Are you here for the social gathering today as well?"

"Of course, but I don't like anyone who came today and none of them suits my taste." I told him the truth!

"So do you think I can do it?" Cheng Lang didn't hesitate to say anything else and asked her directly.

"You? Well, your face is pretty good! I just don't know what your family does. But since you can come to today's party, your family must be quite well-off, right?" I asked him.

"You're right if you say so! Then I'm definitely a good match for you, what do you think?" Cheng Lang continued to tease me

"Okay, very good, I also like your directness. This social gathering is a success!" I said, holding his hand, but I didn't know that this was just the beginning of my nightmare.

From the beginning, Cheng Lang was incredibly kind to me, listening to me and accommodating me in every way. Naturally, we reached the point of discussing marriage. After our two families met, we quickly set a date. I happily prepared for my dream wedding like a fool, meticulously planning every detail and selecting every item with care. From the dress to the shoes, from the venue to the music, everything reflected my care and anticipation. I was immersed in a wave of happiness, as if the entire world had existed just for this day.

On the wedding day, Cheng Lang invited all his college classmates and teachers, including his ex-girlfriend, Wang Qingqing, the woman who would later drive me crazy with jealousy. After hearing about their relationship from others, I pretended to be nonchalant as I approached her. She was indeed beautiful, a celebrity, and the older sister of the fiancée of Ouyang Mo, the eldest son of the Ou family. It felt like I was outmatched in every way. But I also heard that she had a bad reputation in the entertainment industry and at school! She was a bit of a slut. I thought, how could a legitimate daughter of a wealthy family be inferior to the daughter of a mistress? We quickly got into a small argument. Cheng Lang and the others heard the noise and came over, but he just stood there, watching us arguing without saying anything! It was as if our quarrel over him was natural. I was a little disappointed to see this, but then I thought, maybe Cheng Lang was trying to avoid both sides to avoid gossip!

At that time, I naively thought that he was considering the overall situation. It was only when I discovered their affair much later that I realized how stupid I was!

Not long after we got married, Cheng Lang stopped sweet-talking me like he used to be, and he was often away from home for long periods of time. When I asked his parents, they simply said they were busy at work and Cheng Lang rarely came home. Before we got married, Cheng Lang's family business had been struggling, so I promised him I would use our family resources to help him. Sure enough, with our help, Cheng's business skyrocketed. I thought he would be grateful and love me even more, but I didn't expect that we wouldn't even see each other after we got married.

Once, he was drunk and was sent back by his so-called brothers. I helped him lie down in our own room and prepared to make him a cup of sobering tea, but I heard him shouting a name. When I got closer, I could clearly hear that he was calling "Wang Qingqing". I stood there as if struck by lightning. These three words woke me up from my last bit of sleepiness.

I pulled Cheng Lang up and angrily slapped him. "Cheng Lang, how could you, a bastard, do this to me? You even called that woman's name in your dream?"

Cheng Lang seemed to be awakened by my slap and asked me with wide eyes, "Du Mingyue, what are you doing so mad at this time of night?"

"Why am I crazy? You just kept muttering the name of that woman Wang Qingqing. Do you still take me seriously? Do you regard me as your wife?" I asked angrily, hitting his chest?

"Wife? This wife of yours is the result of a marriage between our two families. I tell you that I did have a good impression of you at the beginning, but later when my family forced me to marry you, all my good feelings towards you were gone." Cheng Lang also laid it out. At first, he wanted to forget the woman Wang Qingqing through socializing and had never thought about getting married. But later, when his family forced him to marry Du Mingyue, saying that it would help the family business, he hated Du Mingyue. Cheng Lang threw Du Mingyue onto the bed with his backhand and said viciously, "Du Mingyue, don't push your luck. I'm telling you, just stay at home and be your wife Cheng! Don't meddle in my business. As for the ridiculous love you want from me, it's impossible!"

After saying that, Cheng Lang turned and walked into the study, slamming the door shut, leaving me alone on the big bed. My body felt like it had lost all its strength, unable to move. I lay quietly on the bed, feeling my heartbeat and breathing, and Cheng Lang's words kept echoing in my mind.

I know this night will be long and difficult. I don't know what will happen tomorrow, or how our relationship will develop. But right now, I feel incredibly exhausted and helpless. I can only let my thoughts wander, waiting for the dawn to arrive.
