Chapter 4
Attorney Xi’s mouth constantly voiced “Xia Yanyan” which irked Ye Xingguang immensely.
What was so great about this Xia Yanyan that made them poles apart?
Wasn’t she just a mermaid?
People knew only that Xia Yanyan was a unique mermaid in the world. But did they know, at two, she was diagnosed with chronic granulocytic leukemia? To save her, the Xia’s parents once again joined the mermaid transformation program and gave birth to another mermaid.
Ye Xingguang let out a sarcastic laugh. Ha, how would people know?
The mermaid, born so grotesquely, was immediately concealed by Xia’s parents after birth!
If Xia Yanyan was the elegant swan that brought fame and fortune to the Xia family, then the mermaid was the ugly duckling who couldn’t grace the public.
Only because she was so ugly, her sole purpose in life was to supply bone marrow to Xia Yanyan. Once her task was done, she was heartlessly abandoned by her parents to the open sea to fend for herself.
Poor kid, abandoned to the cruel sea where survival of the fittest was the rule. She had forgotten how she survived amidst sharks, and whales that could instantly kill her.
Thinking about this, Ye Xingguang smirked. No matter how hard it was, she had survived!
However, she thought that she would never intersect with Xia Yanyan. But surprisingly, she managed to win the lottery hand of Xia Yanyan’s future fiancé?
Now, Attorney Xi vainly thought to use Xia Yanyan to fight her off. Well, he had miscalculated!
Leaning against the sofa and fiddling with her fingers, Ye Xingguang said nonchalantly, “What’s wrong with being a fisherman’s daughter? I won the lottery fair and square. The state considers us a good match and insists on assigning Mr. Ye to me. If you disagree, go complain to the state!”
Attorney Xi didn’t expect Ye Xingguang to be so ungrateful.
Was she eyeing Mr. Qing and trying to latch onto him?
Attorney Xi sternly said, “Miss Ye, I advise you to know when to stop. Mr. Qing is here. If you remain so obstinate, once Mr. Qing personally deals with this, no one will speak to you this politely anymore. Mr. Qing is known to be ruthless. Killing you would be easier than killing an ant!”
“Ha, let him try, am I supposed to be afraid of him?”
If all else fails, I can always swallow a regret pill, redo the lottery, and aim for a better match. The only thing this lady doesn’t lack is a regret pill that can turn the tide!

Hiss——Hiss——Hiss——
A fleet of cars slowly drove into the civil affairs bureau. A group of low-key yet luxurious Rolls-Royces attracted bystanders as soon as they appeared.
Upon receiving a call from Attorney Xi, Fu Zhuo frowned angrily, “Mr. Qing, that Miss Ye truly has no shame. She dares to latch onto you, hoping to leverage this opportunity to rise and transform into a phoenix.”
Mr. Qing sat powerfully in the car, scorn etched in his eyes, “She wishes to latch onto me? Well, that depends on whether she’s capable! I want all her information!”
Fu Zhuo immediately handed over the iPad, thinking: who asked her to provoke their Mr. Qing, it’s suicidal!
Simply asking for death!
As Mr. Qing took the iPad, he lazily scrolled through the screen, ready to strike at her weakness. His gaze inadvertently fell on Ye Xingguang’s photo in the profile, causing his predatory expression to momentarily falter.
It was as if he couldn’t believe it, he zoomed in on the photo.
His sharp, peach blossom eyes stared at the woman in the photo for a long time. He still couldn’t believe that the one who had won him over was her?
