Yue Ning could not stay in the room again. She would rather not be called by her sister. She still had goosebumps from her voice earlier on. It was sickening.
As she walked down the stairs, her heart was beating frantically. She would finally get to meet the second male lead, it was a dream come true for her.
But she dreaded the situation they were about to meet in.
Marriage!
In the novel, the second female lead had vehemently rejected the marriage proposal, not because she hated the second male lead, but rather, because she was aware that he did not have feelings for her.
She wanted him to be happy, consequently, causing her to reject the marriage.
But now, Yue Ning had her consciousness. Things would change, and it would do so drastically. Major plot holes would be fixed, and age would not follow the plot.
In the novel, the second male lead had tortured the second female lead to the point of insanity. All these were commanded by the female lead, but now, she was going to change that.
"Sister, you are finally here," Yue Chen hastily ran to her as she pulled her.
Yue Ning frowned as she felt her fingers digging into her skin, but she did not say anything. It would make her seem unreasonable if she did so.
"Have a seat beside my future brother-in-law, this will help build your relationship," she happily uttered as she forced her to take a seat.
Yue Ning tensed up as she sat beside Huo Feng. He was the second male lead, the one who wielded power in the business world.
"President Huo, she is here, she can sign the wedding papers now, there is no need for an extravagant wedding," Mrs. Yue spoke up with a smile.
She was very thrilled. They would finally be getting rid of her. She was the black sheep in the family, and she needed to be rid of to pave the way for the daughter which she was proud of.
Yue Ning immediately glanced at the man, who had his eyes closed.
"System, why is this different from the plot? From what I have read, they had a grand wedding, which caused her to be embarrassed," Yue Ning questioned the system.
She was confused as her brows furrowed while still staring at the motionless man.
'The trajectory of the plot will change now that you have been transmigrated into the novel, major plots will change as a result of your actions,' the system explained to her, and she nodded in understanding.
"Ah Si, drop the papers for Miss Ning, she needs to sign it," Huo Feng spoke up without opening his eyes.
He looked laid back, which was one of the traits that attracted Yue Ning to him while she read the book.
"Here, Miss Ning, please sign the papers," the man who was called Ah Si presented the papers to her.
She looked towards her 𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 who were smiling from ear to ear, and a smile escaped her lips.
She had never really gotten the love of a parent, even in her original world. Thus, their actions did not cause her to feel bad, instead, she was willing to leave them.
In the novel, the parents had also treated Yue Ning with disdain. They did not value her, and she had always lived an ordinary life.
She looked at her supposed 𝑠𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟, who had a smirk on her face. Probably, from the joy of having getting rid of her.
She heaved a sigh before gesturing for the pen. She swiftly signed her name on the paper, and she noticed that he had also signed the papers.
"The papers have been signed, President," Ah Si informed him, and he nodded.
"She is now my property, I will invest in your company, do not bother her anymore," Huo Feng finally opened his eyes as he instructed.
"Of course, she is yours now, we will not dare to disturb you both," Mr. Yue had a bright smile on his face as he uttered those words.
He would be a fool if he went against President Huo, that was like courting death.
He wasn't concerned about what his daughter felt, rather he felt his daughter would understand that it had to be done for the family's sake.
In simple terms, Yue Ning had just been sold. The Yues were facing a crisis in their business, and they needed Huo Feng to invest in their business.
He had agreed, but under one condition, and that was the fact that he wanted to be married to Yue Ning.
It came as a surprise to everyone as it was no secret that he loved Yue Chen. But they did not care about it, as long as their family's business could be saved, they will do anything.
"We are leaving today, do say your goodbyes," Huo Feng stood from the seat, and she gulped.
"System, the novel did not do justice to his features, he is hot!" Yue Ning spoke to the system using her consciousness, while still staring at Huo Feng with love struck eyes.
Yue Chen noticed her look, and her brows raised immediately, but she did not speak.
"Are you going to continue staring, or will you say your goodbyes?" Huo Feng stated without turning to look at her.
"Ah!" She spoke senselessly, before mentally facepalming.
"I do not need to tell them goodbyes, I hate being insincere, it is no secret as to how the eldest daughter of the Yue family is treated, so why should I say goodbye,
I will go get back my bags," Yue Ning declared firmly, before leaving for her room, leaving everyone in shock.
Huo Feng squinted his eyes at the petite lady who climbed the stairs. For some reason, he felt that she had changed.
What changed within her, he could not tell, but he knew that he would not be bored with this marriage life. He felt there were numerous secrets to be uncovered from the unknown eldest lady of the family.
'Host please, please keep in mind your first mission, it is best to do it early, as it will help you unlock the necessary skills,' the system kindly reminded as she walked down the stairs with just luggage.
"I know, you do not need to remind me that you gave me such a 𝑑𝑖𝑓𝑓𝑖𝑐𝑢𝑙𝑡 task," Yue Ning was still miffed by the task, but there was nothing she could do as she was bounded to the system already.
