Chapter 2 Regardless, I am your wife now!

Zhu Qianying muttered to herself, wondering if this man's mind had been kicked by a donkey, or perhaps he'd been subjected to some unspeakable mental trauma that led him to make such an absurd decision.

A loud "bang" pulled her abruptly from the depths of her aimless daydreams. Before her, dust rose in the wind, a large package had been roughly dropped in front of each girl, thrown by the dozen or so burly men who were travelling with them.

Zhu Qianying squinted at the huge package, tiptoed and gently kicked it.

Could this be... a time bomb?

It could go off unless you disarm it within the specified time, otherwise everyone at the scene would be blown up!

Such a thought is indeed frightening!

But considering the previous absurd selection methods used by this gentleman, Zhu Qianying didn't think her wild thoughts were unreasonable!

As for the other girls, their thinking was obviously quite different from Zhu Qianying's. While she was letting her imagination run wild, the girl on her left seductively twisted her body, cast a coquettish glance at the strong men, and asked in a babyish voice, "Big Brother, what's this?"

"See for yourself!"

The burly man didn't even glance at her, barked a response, and immediately fell back into formation with the other men. The man's brisk movements and strict discipline suggested they were from a highly disciplined military unit.

Zhu Qianying couldn't help but snicker, glancing at the beauty on her left: sweetheart, your flirting might appeal to a dog, but these men who are oblivious to your sexual advances? Isn't that like farting against a stone?!

The obtuse hulk gave Zhu Qianying a cold glance, "The packages contain various tools. Whoever escapes from the canyon first, within a limited time, wins!"

Just warned by the man's glance, Zhu Qianying, like an obedient schoolgirl, raised her hand high, "Excuse me!"

"Speak!" If the man had a sword, he might have been inclined to kill her on the spot.

"Officer, what if ten people escape at the same time? Will our boss have to marry all ten of us?"

Even though Zhu Qianying's purpose wasn't to become Miss Yan, she had personally experienced her mother's meekness since she was young and she had a big psychological shadow about being a concubine.

Although Zhu Qianying felt that this question was reasonable, the hulk saw it as a blatant provocation!

"Don't overestimate yourself!" The hulk hurled back at her, striding away from Zhu Qianying as if she were not a beauty, but a deadly plague.

...

Half a day later, Zhu Qianying proved with her actions that she had indeed not overestimated herself.

Because, she won!

And she was the only person who climbed out of the Grand Canyon by using only her wit and strength!

Although, she looked ridiculously messy!

Her neatly combed ponytail was scattered by thorny vines, her clothes and shoes were torn apart by the rocks and thorns, one of her sneakers was missing, revealing socks full of holes and bleeding toes

The other shoe on her foot, looked as if it had been pulled from the muddy gutter, her face was also undoubtedly full of dirt, because, she had taken a mouthful of earth for falling face first several times.

But, none of this mattered, what mattered was, she stood out among a thousand women!

Yes, she had won!

"Ahhhh! I made it!" Zhu Qianying, not caring about how dirty she was, pounded the ground like a madwoman, shouting excitedly.

"Girl, lift your head, let me take a look!"

The deep, unwavering voice suddenly rang out over her, scaring Zhu Qianying tremendously. Unable to control herself, she obediently raised her head, but couldn't contain her ecstatic smile.

Looking directly into the man's piercing, dark eyes, a phrase flashed through Zhu Qianying's mind: this man...is toxic!

At this point, two men towered over her. One of them was an astute pretty-boy, who burst into laughter at first sight of her face.

The other man, referred to by her as "toxic", was actually exceedingly handsome, and very masculine.

Right now, there was a hint of interest in his dark eyes. He slowly crouched down in front of Zhu Qianying and effortlessly raised her chin. His deep and inscrutable gaze scanned her dirty face, ignoring the original skin color and facial features.

After a second or two, the handsome man frowned and tutted, "Ugh, so dirty! So ugly!"

The man disdainfully finished speaking, stood up abruptly, and then shoved the long fingers that had touched her chin towards the special assistant who had been laughing hysterically.

It must be said, this special assistant, with his sharp vision and quick reflexes, had become quite experienced. He stood up straight, quickly cut out his laughter, took a wet wipe out of his bag, and rigorously cleaned his boss's fingers.

Zhu Qianying didn't care whether she was dirty or ugly, even if her whole body looked more disgusting than a beggar under an overpass, her sharp mind quickly deduced that this man in front of her was her jackpot!

Zhu Qianying, now reinvigorated, pushed herself off the ground, stood up, and decisively grabbed the disgusted man's shirt hem with her dirty hand, and announced loudly.

"Boss Yan, I don't care! I won the competition, dirty or ugly, there's no returning me."

Zhu Qianying paused, afraid the man might not understand, she swallowed, and emphasized loudly again, "In any case, I am your wife now!"

This strong and righteous tone caused the brows of Boss Yan to furrow, a rare occurrence!

Who is he, Boss Yan? Not to mention in L City, but also in the whole country, apart from his elusive and eccentric old mother, there wasn't a second person who would dare to talk to him in such a manner!

Suppressing the disgust in his heart, Boss Yan signaled his omnipotent special assistant with a nod.

This woman was too dirty and too ugly, he didn't even have the desire to look at her anymore, let alone talk to her.

Seeing the boss's brows knit together, the special assistant became fearful, as those thick eyebrows and impatient glance were enough to crush his tiny heart.

The special assistant held no good feelings towards this woman who was disgustingly dirty as well. But he had to step forward to protect his position as the boss was clearly showing his dislike.

He had to remind the woman, who looked even more hopeless than a beggar, that calling herself his wife would be an insult to the women's elegance and brightness, no wonder their boss found her disgusting!

"Miss, whether you're our boss's wife or not, isn't for you to decide, our boss has the final say!"
