What kind of sensation hits when your boyfriend brims with boundless vigor?

As Shen Ruojing gradually stirred awake, a throbbing ache pounded in her head from reminiscing about last night's fierce tussle.

Who could have foreseen that the breathtakingly handsome man from the night before boasted such unbelievable endurance? He acted as if exhaustion was alien to him, taking her... over and over!

Did his success with the proposal last night excite him excessively?

Just then, Shen Ruojing propped herself up on the hotel bed and realized Chu Cichen was nowhere in the room.

She snatched her phone right away and rang him up, determined to address 'moderation', yet a robotic tone blared from the device, plunging her heart into dread.

“Hello, the number you just dialed is not in use.”

Chu Cichen had vanished.

Next, Shen Ruojing scoured every spot he might frequent, spotting no trace of him. Anxious about possible trouble, she filed a police report in the end. Yet the inquiry concluded...

This individual practically never existed!

Be it the job location he mentioned, his home details, the identification for last night's hotel reservation, or surveillance recordings... nothing linked back to him.

He dissolved like mist, as though he'd never graced the world.

A preposterous notion crossed her thoughts: Perhaps the half-year pursuit was merely an illusion?

Regrettably, pregnancy tests soon proved her wrong.

Chaos erupted across the Shen Family as Matriarch Shen flew into a rage, banishing her along with her parents and scrubbing their names from the lineage.

In just one month's time, the Shen Family's esteemed eldest daughter transformed into the infamous discarded wife known to all. Whispers claimed she spiraled into ruin post-childbirth.

Five years afterward, inside the lavish Intercontinental Hotel.

Screech~

Shen Ruojing zoomed in on her worn-out motorcycle, halting sharply at the entrance while her slender legs steadied the bike.

The five-year-old Chu Tianye leaped off the rear with practiced ease, yanked off his tiny helmet, and tousled his born-curly hair. His vivid eyes sparkled with eagerness as he inquired, “Mommy, are you sure that daddy is here?”

“I’m certain.”

Shen Ruojing ditched her helmet as well. Draped in casual garb with her lengthy tresses simply bundled, her sharp, lovely visage radiated a slothful, distant air. She stood in sharp contrast to the opulently attired guests milling in the lobby.

Matriarch Chu of the paramount noble lineage marked her birthday with a grand feast indoors, drawing only the wealthy and influential.

Post-expulsion from the Shen Family, Shen Ruojing shunned such gatherings entirely.

That said, merely an hour earlier, an unnamed email popped up carrying breaking finance updates. Its headline read: Chu Cichen, heir to the top corporation, returns home for his mother’s birthday!

Captured at the airport, the image depicted a man in a sleek black suit whose towering, robust frame eclipsed the whole terminal. His defined face and flawless traits shone, while his intense stare appeared to bore straight through the display~~

This was exactly her beau from five years prior, who insisted on his modest roots!

Shen Ruojing secured her ride and escorted Chu Tianye through the lobby doors. Suddenly, a startled voice pierced the air.

“Hey look, isn’t that the eldest miss that got expelled from the Shen Family?”

Lin Wanru lingered nearby with a cluster of other socialites.

Upon catching those words, Lin Wanru whipped around. Her gaze tightened on Shen Ruojing, freezing her grin in place.

Astonishment colored her words. “Shen Ruojing, what are you doing here?”

Shen Ruojing glanced across and responded coolly, “Why can’t I be here?”

Her retort barely faded when sharp criticism rang out.

“Shen Ruojing, watch how you are talking to Miss Lin. Do you think you are still that eldest miss from Shen Family that can stand on equal grounds with Miss Lin?”

“Although you were once known as a part of the Sea City Twin Beauties, together with Miss Lin, the current you don’t even have the qualifications to lift Miss Lin’s shoes!”

“Yup. Miss Lin was chosen by Matriarch Chu and she is going to be engaged with Young Master Chen!”

Shen Ruojing started. “Chu Cichen?”

“Is the name of Young Master Chen something you can mention?”

“Who do you think you are? Back then, you were unrestrained and had s*x with quite a few strangers. You probably have no idea who the father of your son is!”

“Also, look at what you are wearing. Are you in such bad straits that you can’t even afford to purchase a proper dress!”

“How shameless. Shen Ruotong, your Shen Family had better teach your members more competently.”

Shen Ruotong, Shen Ruojing’s younger cousin, stood among these elite young women too. Flushed with shame and fury, she charged at Shen Ruojing, berating her.

“Shen Ruojing, do you know your own limits? You are nothing but a broken flower that was expelled from the family, yet you actually dared to come here? Scram quickly and stop embarrassing yourself here. Don’t drag me down and shame me along with you!”

Disdain flickered across Shen Ruojing’s gaze.

Back in that incident years ago, she was the true sufferer, yet someone warped the tale, tanking her image. She ended up branded as a loose woman shunned by all.

Outsiders acting this way was tolerable, but even kin aware of facts mirrored their scorn.

She preferred not to bicker with unrelated folks, yet Chu Tianye refused to let his mom endure more. His small frame positioned behind her as his bright, childish tone cut through clearly. “Mommy, I was wondering why there’s the stench of the sea. So it turns out that the brains of everyone here are filled with water!”

This ignited Shen Ruotong’s wrath. “Little b*stard, who are you scolding? Come out right now!”

With turmoil brewing, Lin Wanru quelled her inner shock and commanded, “Enough!”

As Matriarch Chu’s picked future bride, she oversaw today’s welcome. Any issues here fell under her watch.

Her eyes shifted to Shen Ruojing.

Shen Ruojing’s complexion glowed like blush. Her soft lips shone crimson, a petite red mark on her nose bridge boosting her allure. Her almond eyes glimmered faintly, projecting an otherworldly grace.

…She absolutely couldn’t let Shen Ruojing show up at the Chu banquet!

Lin Wanru tightened her grip and pretended kindness. “Miss Shen, did you bring gift money? An invite alone won’t cut it for entry; gift money is required too…”

Shen Ruojing blinked in surprise. “What gift money?”

“Perhaps it’s been ages since your last banquet, leaving you unaware of Chu Family customs.”

Lin Wanru pressed on, “Matriarch Chu adores cash, accepting only money—no gifts—for birthdays. Thus, her events follow this custom.”

“Those who gift one million can sit at this table.”

“Those who gift ten million can sit at that table.”

“Miss Shen, can I ask how much money you are planning on gifting?”

Shen Ruotong stomped in rage at this, mortified. “How would she have money? Her clan’s so broke they can’t afford baby formula! Shen Ruojing, you didn’t show up to mooch food, did you?”

The crowd joined in jeering.

“Not just anyone crashes the Chu Family banquet. Dragging a little b*stard too—absurd! Wait… is she hunting her kid’s dad…?”

“Miss Lin, you’re too kind. Just call security to boot them!”

Lin Wanru flashed a sorry grin. “Miss Shen, if no money, leave now. Getting thrown out wouldn’t look good…”

While all anticipated her humiliation…

Suddenly, Shen Ruojing smirked and nudged the curiously scanning Chu Tianye toward the butler. “Might you inquire of Matriarch Chu? What table awaits the one who gifted her a firstborn grandson?”
