The Sweet Life: Secretly Married to a Movie Star

Chapter 1



Chapter 1


It was a sunny day in a small town within B-City.


Xia Yishan sat on a thick branch, chewing on a strand of green bristlegrass. Her hand could not help touching a bump on her head.


‘Ouch!


‘It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!


‘Look at you! Why’d you have to touch it?! Now you’re in pain!’


Ahh, the pain sure woke her up!


It had been three days. She finally accepted the fact that she had been reborn. She had returned to her own life five years ago.


Hah…


Everything really began five years in the past, so the timing was just right. At least God had been nice to her.


The view from the tree was extensive, so she was able to see the only broad cement road in town.


According to what had happened in her past life, someone would be coming over the next day. She had to change her life no matter what. She was given a chance to live again, so she should not make the same mistakes!


“Xiaxia!”


Xia Yishan’s train of thought was interrupted. She watched Shen Jiashu scramble up the tree in a flash.


She was annoyed. This little guy, nimble as a monkey, was one of her few friends in B-City. When she thought about it, she recalled he was the one that taught her how to climb trees.


“What are you doing here alone?”


“Enjoying the view.”


“What’s there to look at? Let’s go fishing in Zhenbei tomorrow. Xiaoling is going too!”


Xiaoling. Tan Xiaoling. Xia Yishan’s eyes turned grim as soon as she heard the name.


She leaped from the tree agilely and said two cold words, “Not going.”


“Well, don’t go then. Why are you being so mean? And where are you going now?”


“Back to the orphanage!”


“Are you really not going? I’ve already promised Xiaoling that I’d bring you along…”


Xia Yishan ignored him.


She walked to the orphanage, the same one she had grown up in for as long as she could remember. She took over the retired vice president’s job when she became an adult. She had never expected she was the Xia family’s young mistress.


In her previous life, the three of them happened to be fishing by the lake when the Xia family sent people to pick her up. Tan Xiaoling pushed her into the water by accident, making her appear clumsy. The group from the Xia family looked at her with disdain. They decided to invite Tan Xiaoling and Shen Jiashu to the Xia residence.


She, Xia Yishan, became Tan Xiaoling’s stepping stone. Tan Xiaoling leaped right into high society. She even destroyed Xia Yishan’s future by backstabbing her. It was devastating.


Xia Yishan wanted to slap herself as she remembered it. She was such a fool to have allowed that to happen!!!



The people from the Xia family arrived the next day. Xia Yishan went with them obediently.


The car entered Beijing after five hours on the road.


Looking through the windows of the car, Xia Yishan’s eyes were drawn to the streets on both sides of the capital. Who would have thought that these streets would transform five years later? The capital lived up to its reputation as the core of the country’s economy. The speed of its development was jaw-dropping.


The Xia family was one of the many members of Beijing’s high society. When she came here in her past life, she was shocked by the city’s hustle and bustle and had overlooked those unpredictable, wicked humans. This time, she would be wary and teach those monsters a good lesson!


Xia Yishan stood obediently in the living room of the Xia residence.


Wan Yuning took a good look at the girl before her. She had exquisite features, with a high ponytail on her head. The white dress she wore was clean and neat and neither worn nor new. Although she was in the simplest of clothes, that could not hide her charisma.


This was a kid who grew up in the rural landscape of B-City? She would not believe that no matter what. Even Xia Zhirou, who she had raised properly since young, did not have such a gift!


As Wan Yuning was observing Xia Yishan, Xia Yishan was checking her out too.


The Xia family knew about her existence from the beginning. The reason they had been silent was the fact that she was not a child of Wan Yuning, the official wife. As Xia Qihua’s illegitimate daughter, she was not recognized by the Xia family at all.


They only recalled there was an illegitimate daughter wandering out there since something happened to Xia Zhirou. They then brought her back immediately.


Wan Yuning felt she had taken everything from Xia Zhirou. How could she be nice to her? If not for the fact that she was still useful to the family, they would have chased her away from them.


At that moment, familiar footsteps came from the entrance, and Xia Yishan felt a chill down her spine…
