Chapter 11: Nightmare and the king of the night (Part 1)

Translated by: Ai Hrist

Lin Chujiu knew that Lin Furen (Madam Lin) doesn’t want to give in, but today she won’t let her do so. She received such a poor body because of her. She should at least get a little bit of compensation.

Lin Chujiu looked at Lin Furen (Madam Lin) and faintly smiled: “Lin Furen (Madam Lin), my time is limited. But, because you’ve given me so much love, I will also give you a little love in return. I hope you can give me at least two hundred and fifty thousand taels of gold. You know my temper… …”

Lin Chujiu hadn’t said the meaning behind those words, but of course, she implied it as a threat. Lin Furen (Madam Lin) was able to understand it clearly: Her time is limited. If she didn’t give the money to Lin Chujiu before the wedding, then Lin Chujiu wouldn’t make things easy for her.

Lin Chujiu’s reputation has already been destroyed. She no longer cares about it, but, Lin Furen (Madam Lin) is different. She is known as a loving wife and a good mother. And, her biological daughter will marry the Crown Prince. She would never let Lin Chujiu destroy her reputation.

Lin Furen (Madam Lin) has no other choice but to resign herself and ask: “Will you take the money and withdraw your threat?”

Life is not short. She will let Lin Chujiu win this time, as she also wants to see if Lin Chujiu would be able to lead a flowery life after her marriage. Of course, sooner or later, she will make her pay for today’s account.

“A cancellation fee for your past misdeeds.” Lin Chujiu got up and looked into Lin Furen’s (Madam Lin) eyes. She slightly smiled: “Lin Furen (Madam Lin), I want to see the banknote tomorrow morning!”

“Tomorrow? It’s impossible … …” Lin Furen (Madam Lin) wished to personally drag Lin Chujiu down to her death. But, since Prince Xiao has a very bad temper and his cruelty is known to everyone, she will give him the honor.


“That is your problem.” As Lin Chujiu got up to see her off, she had suddenly thought of something: “Lin Furen (Madam Lin) … … When you go out, can you remind the maidservant to serve me rice porridge? Oh! and if Lin Furen (Madam Lin) won’t give me food, I might change my mind again and ask you to give me five hundred and fifty thousand taels of gold instead!”


After she finished, Lin Chujiu turned around and walked toward her bed, leaving  Lin Furen (Madam Lin) standing stiffly in the same place.

Two hundred and fifty thousand taels of gold are worth of two million and five hundred thousand taels of silver. This amount is definitely an astronomical figure, even if she uses a banknote she still needs a thousand pieces of them… …

At night, Lin Furen (Madam Lin) simply couldn’t get that much money in silver or bank notes. During the whole night, she was stressed and worried on how she would be able to get two million and five hundred thousand taels of silver!

But, that was exactly what Lin Chujiu wanted!

Lin Furen (Madam Lin) was busy enough that night that she didn’t have time to think up any plans for her. Lin Chujiu currently is able safely spend her last day in Lin Family’s mansion, and as for tomorrow … …

Lin Chujiu is not a pessimistic person, thinking about things that hasn’t happened is useless. She doesn’t know what kind of person Prince Xiao is and she doesn’t know how powerful he is. All she can do now is wait for their wedding.

Anyway, even if Prince Xiao is a cruel and influential man, he will not poison her like Lin Furen (Madam Lin), right?

Lin Chujiu firmly believed that as long as she’s alive, there is hope.

At night, Lin Chujiu was eating a bowl of white rice. Although she still wanted to eat, she knew that a hungry person shouldn’t eat too much. So, she restrains herself and rested for a moment. She then asked the servants to fetch her water since she wanted to bathe.

Lin Chujiu had lived a miserable life for the whole three days, but now she can finally enjoy a bath with rose petals, just like those ancient rich ladies.


However, when she entered the bath tub, Lin Chujiu found out that the bathtub is not only large but also quite deep, like a bucket. Lin Chujiu really wanted to have a comfortable bath, she missed her jacuzzi at home. Of course, this was because she refused the service of her maidservants.

Lin Chujiu didn’t want to enjoy her last moment with her maidservants, she was afraid of being locked down again with their black hands. All of the servants in Lin Mansion had been dominated by Lin Furen (Madam Lin) for too a long time now. The maidservants that were assigned to her were also Lin Furen’s (Madam Lin)  personal maidservants.

And to be on the safe side, Lin Chujiu didn’t want anyone to touch her.

After a nice bath, she hadn’t needed to worry about Lin Furen (Madam Lin) taking advantage of her or harming her. Lin Chujiu was able to take her medicine in peace and go to sleep.

Even though today’s event forced her to say a few foul words, her mood was really good and it didn’t affect her sleep. When she lied down on her bed, she instantly fell asleep. Lin Chujiu couldn’t wait to face her new life tomorrow.

Tonight, Lin Chujiu was sleeping soundly. But, there are two people that could not sleep all night because of her. One of them was Lin Furen (Madam Lin) who is preparing the money and the other one was …

In a study room inside a large mansion, a man was sitting in a wheelchair. Half of his face was hidden in the darkness and the other half was exposed to the candle light. His face looked fuzzy and unclear, which added a sense of mystery to him.

The half of his face that was hidden in the darkness clearly sent a dangerous feeling, and the half of his face that was exposed by the candlelight, was glowing like jade and sent an unspeakable charm… …
