Chapter 294 -294: I Am Sheng Tingyuan’s Wife
Ye Shuangyin donned the latest Valentino haute couture dress, clutching a limited-edition Hermès crocodile bag as she settled into the luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom.
The driver drove steadily forward, and she held a wine glass in her hand, not spilling a drop of the red wine inside.
She had finally escaped back from the slums and returned to the life of a pampered heiress, intoxicated by wealth.
Three years ago, somehow bewitched, she defied her entire family’s pleas and decided to elope with her boyfriend, Hen Mingjun, against all advice.
At the moment she ran away from her wedding, she felt liberated, believing she could do whatever she wished from then on, free from her family’s control, and was so happy that she hugged Hen Mingjun and kissed him fiercely.
During the day, they registered their marriage, but by nightfall, she regretted it.
Hen Mingjun’s home was destitute, not even able to provide a clean, new blanket, and dinner was just a pot of mushy dumplings!
She wanted to leave immediately, but was knocked out.
For the next three years, she lived as if in hell, never failing to regret her choice.
Before their marriage, Hen Mingjun was tender and considerate, willing to do anything for her. No matter how she yelled at or hit him, he never got angry; he would softly say, “Baby, it’s all my fault. I have nothing and can’t give you what you want, but I truly love you.”
Ye Shuangyin knew she had a bad temper that most people couldn’t stand, even her own younger brother couldn’t bear it, let alone others.
But Hen Mingjun always indulged her without limits.
It’s not like there were no men pursuing her, but those guys at most pacified her for a few months; none lasted more than half a year. After a while, they went after other girls with better tempers.
Her temper was too volatile, and she had a strong sense of entitlement like a true heiress, liking to slap people and to have them kneel before her.
And the only one who could bear all this was Hen Mingjun.
Hen Mingjun pursued her for two full years, and even after they were together, where she would either hit or scold him, he remained as good to her as ever.
In the summer, he would travel tirelessly across half the city in the middle of the night to buy her a type of ice cream she mentioned offhand, and during winter, he would stand in line, braving the cold, for a special basket of dumplings, wrapping them in his down jacket to deliver to her downstairs.
He gave her all the money he earned from his hard work at jobs to buy her gifts, even though she barely glanced at them before carelessly tossing them aside.
But he didn’t get angry. He knew he wasn’t worthy of her, so he was humbly subservient to the core, letting her trample all over his dignity.
However, the inhuman torment of the past three years had been enough for Ye Shuangyin to see his true colors.

Everything, all of it, was an act by Hen Mingjun!
He wanted the resources and wealth of the Ye Family, but the Ye Family had no regard for him, and her elopement had completely ruined his hopes of climbing through the Ye Family.
So he stopped pretending; he returned the torment she had inflicted on him twice over.
Now, Ye Shuangyin finally understood that a woman must not marry beneath her station, for no matter how good that man is to her, it’s pointless.
She now loathed poor men and was determined to secure a marriage with wealthy heirs like Sheng Tingyuan.
She refused to endure another day of hardship; she desired the richest life!
The Rolls-Royce stopped in front of the Shengshi Group building.
Ye Shuangyin got out of the car, flanked by two bodyguards, and entered the building.
The receptionist greeted her with a polite smile, “Good day, Miss. Whom are you looking for? Do you have an appointment?”
Ye Shuangyin held her chin high, her face arrogant, “Do I need an appointment?”
The receptionist’s smile stiffened slightly, “May I ask who you are?”
“Are you blind? I’m the wife of your CEO, Sheng Tingyuan! I want to see Sheng Tingyuan, take me up now!”
Startled, the receptionist thought, This woman is the CEO’s wife?
“I’ll call the CEO’s office right away; I don’t have the authority to go up myself,” she hurriedly said.
“Humph, then call quickly!”
The receptionist immediately dialed the intercom, “Assistant Yang, this is Xiaoyuan at the reception. A lady here claims she’s the CEO’s wife, asking to see him.”
