The male protagonist of a sweet romance novel went on a killing spree in the world of angst novels.

Inside the car, Yanting stared blankly at the dessert box on her lap.

Before leaving, Chen Xiao suddenly called her back and handed her a large box of carefully packaged desserts. The desserts were from a very famous brand in Hong Kong called Black Velvet.

It's very expensive; it's said that just one small box costs around several hundred thousand.

But Chen Xiao casually gave away millions of dollars worth of desserts as if it were nothing.

The reason this brand is expensive is not only because of its brand effect, but also because its various desserts are adorned with all kinds of diamonds, as well as full and round pearls and other luxury jewelry.

Although Yan Ting is the eldest daughter of the Yan family, aside from having no worries about food, clothing, housing, or transportation on a daily basis, the luxury goods, designer clothes, and bags she enjoys are far less than those of ordinary daughters of wealthy families.

Previously, the family's finances were controlled by Yanshan, but now they are gradually being handed over to Yannan. As for Li Qian, despite her usual adornment with gold and silver, she is actually just a pampered vase in the Yan family and has no real financial power.

Yanting naturally refused such an expensive gift.

But Chen Xiao acted like a rogue, his attitude nonchalant, a slightly wicked smile curving his lips: "If you don't want it, the trash can is its final resting place."

As he spoke, he raised his elbow and, with his fingertips, made a gesture as if he was about to throw the dessert gift box away.

Yanting quickly stopped him: "Waste is shameful!"

She didn't see the triumphant smile flash in the eyes of the young man, who was more than a head taller than her, the moment she lunged forward.

Yanjia.

Before Yanting even stepped into the living room, he could hear Xu Rou and Li Qian talking, as well as Li Qian's occasional laughter.

She had never seen Li Qian so happy.

After all, every time Li Qian saw her, she had a stern face and her eyes were full of annoyance.

"Miss Yan." Butler Wang bowed and called out to the Yan Pavilion at the entrance.

The smile on Li Qian's face faded.

Xu Rou was a discerning person. She looked at the dessert gift box that Yan Ting was carrying, her eyes sparkling: "Sister, you also like to eat desserts from Hei Rong's. I like them too, but they're too expensive. As an orphan, I naturally can't afford these kinds of desserts."

Upon hearing this, Li Qian noticed the beautifully packaged box of desserts that Yan Ting was carrying. So, she said matter-of-factly, "Yan Ting, Rou Rou is now part of our Yan family. If you have anything good, you can share it with us, your family."

Yan Ting almost burst out laughing.

Laughing in anger.

She never expected Li Qian to be so hypocritical.

"Since Sister Xu is part of the Yan family, then Mother, you can buy her another box." Yan Ting said in a nonchalant tone, "I think Mother can certainly afford this amount of money."

A few million dollars is just a drop in the ocean for a wealthy socialite, but if you want to buy desserts from the Black Velvet brand, you have to go to Hong Kong to buy them yourself.

And you might not even be able to buy it, because it's a limited edition.

In other words, even if you have money, you might not be able to buy it.

Feeling humiliated, Li Qian immediately rebuked Yan Ting, "When did you become so selfish?"

"It's just a dessert."

Xu Rou seized the opportunity to say, "It's fine if my sister doesn't like me, but how could you make Mom angry?"

Yanting said in a low voice, "Mother is right, I am indeed a very selfish person."

After saying that, she picked up the box and prepared to leave.

Li Qian's face turned red with anger, and she pointed at Yan Ting: "You stop right there."

Jianyanting continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

Li Qian immediately shouted, "Bodyguards, stop her!"

This time, she was determined to teach that wretched girl a lesson.

As Xu Rou looked at the scene before her, her eyelids lowered, and a faint smile flashed in her eyes.

As soon as Li Qian finished speaking, several strong bodyguards appeared at the door.

Yan Ting looked at the bodyguards blocking her way, her expression calm and composed, without a trace of fear or apprehension.

"Get out of the way." The voice was cold and indifferent.

Although Yan Ting is the eldest daughter of the Yan family, the bodyguards all know which side is more important.

Then, one of the muscular bodyguards, who was in charge, said expressionlessly, "Excuse me, miss."

Yan Ting stood there expressionless.

Seeing the bodyguard about to grab her, she stretched out her soft, boneless hand and struck him directly in the chest.

The next moment, the bodyguard leader's entire body was sent flying by a powerful inertial force, and then crashed heavily into a large floor-to-ceiling glass window dozens of meters behind him.

crackling-

The tempered double-sided glass was smashed to pieces.

The housekeeper and the servants all had their pupils dilate in shock.

Xu Rou and Li Qian both widened their eyes.

At this moment, the surrounding atmosphere was deathly silent.

When the other bodyguards saw their colleague beaten unconscious, they all took a half step back.

Yan Ting raised her eyes and said calmly, "Get out of the way."

This time, no one stopped her.

Yan Ting seemed oblivious to the stares she received from others, who looked at her as if she were a monster, and walked straight toward her room.

The silence was finally broken when Yan Ting's figure disappeared around the corner.

Xu Rou looked at Li Qian with a pale and worried expression: "Mom, my sister..."

“Monster.” Li Qian interrupted her, her face dazed as she murmured, “That master was right after all. Yan Ting is indeed the monster that will bring misfortune to the Yan family.”

While not every mother loves her child, there must be a reason why Li Qian dislikes her daughter so much.

The Yan family was a well-known family in Yancheng who believed in metaphysics.

Back when Yanting was just one year old, Yanshan specially invited a famous master from the port city to the Yan family to attend Yanting's first birthday banquet.

Unexpectedly, the master said frankly upon meeting Yanting for the first time: "This child has a strong birth chart, which will bring misfortune to his relatives."

Although Li Qian held a deep-seated preference for sons, she still felt a certain maternal affection for her daughter, whom she had carried for ten months and given birth to.

However, this bond between mother and daughter was gradually and completely consumed by the subsequent car accident, the fire in their room, and the decline of the Yan family's business.

During that time, Li Qian had nightmares every day.

As a result, she began to harbor resentment towards the child.

I hate her for being born into her womb.

She shouldn't have given birth to this bastard child in the first place.

So how happy she was when she learned that Yanting was not related to her by blood.

Compared to Li Qian's sentimentality, Yan Shan was a profit-driven businessman, and naturally could not allow Yan Ting to continue to bring negative influence to the Yan family.

So, when Yanting was 15 years old, she was sent to live in a small town called Yuewan.

Later, when Yanting was 17, Yanshan had no choice but to ask someone to bring back this unfamiliar daughter because her mother threatened to kill herself.

Upon learning this, Li Qian cried, made a scene, and even threatened to hang herself, refusing to allow Yanting to return.

But the old lady at that time was absolutely inflexible.

Yanshan was very filial, so he went to ask the master for a solution. The master told him to treat his daughter as a stranger and not to get close to her.

Then Yanting was taken back to the Yan family.
