So what if she's a fake heiress? She's being pampered by a powerful figure in Beijing'

Yu Wei looked at him in disbelief.

They shared a bed for five years, and five years can change a lot.

When her mother passed away, she broke down in tears in front of the tombstone. Shen Huaishan hugged her from behind and said that he would be her last family member in this world.

He said he had avenged her mother, and the first wife, who had inherited the wealthy businessman's fortune, was framed and imprisoned, unable to live or die.

He also said that he didn't want her to "follow" him anymore, and that they should have a proper relationship.

I took it as fact from WeChat.

Later, Shen Huaishan made her his companion and took her to meet the celebrities and dignitaries of Haicheng.

Just when she began to believe in love, at her happiest moment, Shen Huaishan dealt her a heavy blow.

In the bar where she worked, a scantily clad, shapely woman sat on Shen Huaishan's lap, while his cronies teased him:

"Aren't you afraid of Yu Wei checking up on you? Are you really that brazen?"

Shen Huaishan, abandoning his usual refined and gentle demeanor, unbuttoned two buttons on his white shirt, raised an eyebrow, and smiled with a dashing air.

"Why should I be afraid of her? Who is she to me?"

The person sitting next to him paused for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly.

"Aren't you two a couple?"

Shen Huaishan chuckled but remained silent.

The young lady sitting on him giggled and spoke up for him:

"Does Yu Wei, that illegitimate daughter, even deserve to be our Second Young Master Shen's girlfriend?"

"A bootlicker who's always at your beck and call. Young Master Shen is just playing around for a moment. He'll throw him away when he's tired of him. You guys really take it seriously?"

After saying that, the girl glanced at Shen Huaishan's expression. Seeing that Shen Huaishan didn't deny it with a half-smile, she boldly insulted Yu Wei a couple more times.

The other friends in the booth also burst into laughter.

Dressed as a waitress, Yu Wei, standing to the side with a glass of wine, felt a chill run through her body and her whole body went numb.

She awkwardly placed the wine on the booth table and left in a disheveled state before anyone could recognize her.

After returning home, she accepted her mentor's recommendation and prepared to study abroad.

She intended to keep it a secret from Shen Huaishan, but she underestimated Shen Huaishan's extensive connections and influence in Haicheng.

He threw her chat history with her advisor in front of her and demanded an explanation.

With tears in her eyes, she said she didn't want to continue playing this sugar daddy game anymore. She didn't want to be an illegitimate child that anyone could trample on, and she wasn't some kind of simp who could be summoned at will.

She said, "Shen Huaishan, it's been five whole years. I'm not pretty, I'm not romantic, and I don't have as many tricks up my sleeve in bed as your many other women. So, are you tired of me? If you are, please, please let me go."

She said, "You lied to me. You are not my family. I don't want to be lied to by you anymore. I don't want to be manipulated by you anymore. I am a human being too, and I have self-respect."

She said, "I don't care about your money. I will slowly pay you back the money I spent on tuition and my mother's medical treatment. Let's just break up like this."

The night in Haicheng was cool and still. Shen Huaishan and she faced off in their love nest, where they had lived for five years.

After a long while, Shen Huaishan looked up, the sarcasm in his eyes becoming tangible.

He said, "If you dare to go abroad, I'll send the video of you writhing and begging under me back then to your mentor's email address."

He said that your mentor hates people who grovel to the powerful and wealthy. If she finds out that her favorite student is actually just a lowly wretch who submits to others, how will she view you in the future?

Yu Wei looked at him in disbelief.

Five years of sharing a bed, five years of passionate love.

Shen Huaishan knew what her mentor meant to her.

She had thought that Shen Huaishan would try to keep her, or apologize humbly, or ask her to return the money, but she never expected that her husband would threaten her with the thing she cared about most.

She collapsed onto the edge of the bed, covered her face, and burst into tears.

Bowl.

Later, Shen Huaishan gave her everything he could.

Independent designer studios and brands, exquisite jewelry, and romantic surprises for anniversaries.

She was no longer the vibrant student Yu Wei.

Shen Huaishan used money and power to wrap her up like an exquisite Barbie doll, just like any other "socialite" in Haicheng who spends money like water.

Haicheng is the domain of the Shen family; she is like a caged bird, unable to escape.

During that period, everyone in Haicheng's social circles knew Miss Yu's name.

Everyone joked that Miss Yu was incredibly charming, so much so that the handsome young master Shen, surrounded by countless women, was determined to marry her.

Shen Huaishan was very satisfied with this.

With the nourishment of money, Yu Wei became like a rose with its thorns removed, growing more pliable and gentle.

But what he didn't know was that every night they shared a bed, Yu Wei would keep her eyes open, gazing at the night view outside the window until dawn.

He didn't know that beneath the watch worth millions lay the scars of Yu Wei's repeated self-harm.

Expensive perfumes and cosmetics may make one appear even more beautiful, but the inside is already corrupt.

The fireworks in the port city were a birthday gift from Shen Huaishan to Yu Wei.

Fireworks worth millions exploded on the river in the port city. On the cruise ship, Shen Huaishan embraced Yu Wei from behind and gently kissed the tip of her ear.

"Like it?"

Yu Wei forced a smile, but her almond-shaped eyes betrayed her true feelings.

Shen Huaishan met her gaze, his smile slowly fading. After a long while, he angrily smashed his wine glass, bursting into a rage:

"Yu Wei, what more could you possibly want!"

"You're incredibly lucky to be with me. Anyone else would be fawning over me. Why are you giving me that sour look?"

"Money, power, status—what haven't I given you? What more could you possibly want!"

The wine glass shattered on the deck, shards of glass flying everywhere and cutting Yu Wei's face.

A trickle of blood slid down her cheek, falling to the ground like a tear.

Yu Wei stood still, looking at him coldly.

During those five years, she told Shen Huaishan more than once that her least favorite thing was her birthday.

Before she turned eighteen, every year on her birthday, Mrs. Yu would make things difficult for her and her mother in every way.

Even when she was seventeen, her father passed away, and Madam Yu simply found a greasy middle-aged tycoon and used Yu Wei's virginity to exchange for some resources.

This was also the trigger for Yu Wei and her mother to flee their home.

But Shen Huaishan forgot that this might not be important to him.

Upon learning that Yu Wei had been injured, Shen Huaishan immediately snapped out of his rage.

She stood there, her expensive dress fitting her perfectly. A gust of wind blew by, and Shen Huaishan realized that she was abnormally thin, almost unrecognizable.

The fireworks display ended badly.

Shen Huaishan did not come to see her again.

A week later, Shen Changfeng entered her home. This man, who looked three parts like Shen Huaishan but was a hundred times more upright than Shen Huaishan, held her college admission notice and sincerely apologized to her.

He said that his younger brother was unruly and that the Shen family had not disciplined him properly over the years. Now that Shen Huaishan had been sent to the old house for education, she was free.

He also said that he communicated with the school on behalf of the Shen family, and the school said that she was excellent in both character and academics, so they gave her special privileges and allowed her to enroll with this year's freshmen.

He also said that he had seen her medical records and knew that she had severe depression and anxiety. As compensation, he would provide her with medical resources on behalf of his brother to help her recover.
