"Lu Shaoting!" Jiang Mei Ling broke into tears . "You spent the night with another woman without explaining anything to your wife! Maybe . . . if I didn't ask, would you even bother?!"
"Mei . . . I . . . you don't understand . . . "
"What do I not understand about you sleeping in another house instead of staying with your family?!"
"She is also my family! I'm the only family she had left! When you were a pampered princess in your happy family, she only had her father . When fans loved you, she already lost him! My aunt was too sick to even recognize her . My father did not want to recognize her so I had to meet her in secret . She needed me so I went to be there for her . I'm telling you right now because I don't want you to misunderstand . " He grabbed her arms to make her steady .
"You . . . you're mean!" She raised her fists to knock onto his st.u.r.dy chest as she made a childish expression .
"Mei . . . "
She suddenly stopped her antics . Then she chuckled . "Then again . . . you were just forced to marry me . " She had a bitter smile .
Their engagement had been long arranged before they reached the age of 10 . After graduating high school, they had their formal ceremony before entering college . After graduation, they prepared for their wedding for two whole years . n.o.body objected to anything, but then again, not objecting does not always mean agreeing .
"No . " He looked at her sternly . He never thought that he was forced to do so . "Don't say that ever again!" The words sounded like they weighed tons .
"But in your eyes, I'm just a pampered spoiled princess, a piece of work . " She widened her bitter smile .
"Don't be unreasonable!" His grip on her arms tightened as his expression turned gloomy .
"Now I'm being unreasonable?! Did I tell you to sleep with another woman?!"
"I'm not having an affair! She's my cousin for pete's sake!"
She snickered . "Don't worry . It happens to most arranged marriages . I can understand . " Her sarcasm made him furious .
"Jiang Mei Ling! Listen to me!" His hands shook her pet.i.te body as if to wake her up . "I married you because I wanted to, not because my parents wanted me to . When I faced you on our wedding day and made my vows, I meant every word . I will stay married to you and loyal to you because I love you! You know me . I never settle for anything less than what I think is best! Even my parents, if they would give me a half-a.s.s production, will get a word from me! So I did not settle for less when I married you! I chose the best! It is just of good riddance that the person my parents chose would be the person I wanted to spend my life with . "
Her pretty face contorted as she sniffed while her eyes watered .

Ming Xiaoyu rode her black BMW M6 after meeting Yang Jeong Cheol .
There was an eerie silence in the car, but the driver was too afraid to turn on the radio .
In her reverie, Ming Xiaoyu remembered the day she brought her son to be tested as a donor for Yang Jeonghan .
"Mother, why do I need to be tested? We're not even related to them . Are they so desperate in finding a donor?"
She eyed him with a subtle shock in her eyes which she successfully changed before he noticed .
"They were long time friends with me . His father contributed to my success . I only wanted to lend help as much as I could . Don't worry . There is a low chance that you'll be a match since you're not related by blood . " she explained .
In truth, she also used the opportunity to bribe a geneticist to do a DNA test between her son and Yang Jeong Cheol, who also submitted his sample, hoping he could be a match .
When the old Madam Xiu ordered the attack on her son's lover, she had sent several young men from rich families to have their way with her one after another .
The first to take advantage of her was Ming Rouguang . He never learnt that several men came after him in succession . When Wong Xiaoyu was known to be pregnant, he took it as his responsibility and n.o.body else objected .
Wong Xiaoyu was forced to marry him even though she was not even sure if he was the father of her unborn child back then .
However, as Ming Rong Zhang grows up, she saw that he does not resemble his father, not one bit . She began to suspect that his father might be someone else from all the men who wronged her .
One-by-one, she managed to test them through either unknown or forced way . This time, it was Yang Jeong Cheol's turn .
When she found out the results, she took advantage if the donor match to use this family to carry out her next plot of revenge .
