Night, deep into the darkness.

On the top of the Imperial Palace, the only seven-star hotel in S City, there was a large hall, bright as day, accommodating a crowd of young bodies, swaying in a convivial manner. Older members were engaging in cordial conversation over raised glasses.

Today is the day Gu Yanxi, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, inherits the family business.

The Gu Group was established during the period of the Republic of China, a true commercial leader standing strong for hundreds of years. Sadly, in the generation of Gu Jianwei, there were no sons to inherit this vast business. The role fell onto his eldest daughter, which made quite a few individuals secretly regretful.

However, even being a daughter, Gu Yanxi was by no means inferior to any male heir in any other family.

"Yanxi, congratulations." Chu Xu gently smiled, raising his glass to toast.

Looking at the tall and handsome man in front of her, Gu Yanxi couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart. He was her childhood friend and her fiancé, and their wedding was scheduled for early next Spring.

The abrupt ring of a cell phone. Gu Yanxi glanced at the caller ID, it was her younger sister, Gu Yanan.

"Hello, sister. Today is your lucky day. There are some things I've wanted to tell you since I came home. Sister, I hope you can come alone."

Gu Yanan's voice was choked with sobs.

Slightly furrowing her eyebrows, Gu Yanxi hung up the call, gently squeezed Chu Xu's hand, and said, "Please stay with dad for now. Yanan is feeling somewhat upset, I need to go see her."

Moments later, Gu Yanxi, dressed in a black diamond-studded gown, stepped onto the dimly lit rooftop alone. She looked around but couldn't see Gu Yanan. She walked a few steps forward hesitantly, and gently called out, "Yanan?"

However, the response was a lethal blow from behind.

An iron rod, swung with a tremendous force, struck her at the back of her neck. Gu Yanxi fell to her knees almost instantly, letting out a bone-chilling scream. With pain riddling her body, she turned back to see the twisted face of Gu Yanan.

As her body collapsed helplessly on the ground, she asked in disbelief, "Why?"

"Because all of this can only belong to me." Gu Yan'an squatted down and looked at her eye to eye, his eyes cold.

Gu Yanxi only noticed then, that the dress Gu Yan'an was wearing today was exactly the same as hers.

They were a pair of twins, with the same background and faces. The twist of fate was that Gu Yan'an got lost when she was young and wasn't taken back to the Gu family until five years ago.

At that time, Gu Yanxi was already the favored daughter of the heavens, while Gu Yan'an was just an ugly duckling.

Everyone in Gu family was worried that Gu Yan'an would be emotionally unbalanced, but this sensible little girl put everyone's mind at ease with her pureness and kindness, even Gu Yanxi swore to treat her well.

But looking at her now, the truth beneath this simplicity was truly shocking.

Looking at Gu Yanxi's penetrating gaze, Gu Yan'an was momentarily flustered, but years of jealousy had already driven her mad. "Why is it that starting from the same origin, our lives have diverged so differently? The Gu family does love me very much, but wherever you are, don't they still only revolve around you? The entire Gu Group was given to you, what did I get? The upper-class circle only sees me as a joke!"

Gu Yanxi looked at her own sister in shock, her lips trembling, unable to utter a word.

"But luckily I have your good fiancé. Otherwise, how could I have come this far so easily?" Gu Yan'an chuckled.

Hearing this, Gu Yanxi’s eyes widened, filled with disbelief.

Chu Xu?

How could Chu Xu betray her?

They were childhood sweethearts and their engagement was set early. He had always been good to her…

"What, you can't believe it?" Gu Yan'an smirked triumphantly, slowly bent over to support Gu Yanxi's body, and drew her towards the edge of the roof. "But your fiancé has always loved me."

"Yan'an, don't." The moment her body was suspended in the air, Gu Yanxi grabbed Gu Yan'an's wrist tightly. She looked down at the constant stream of traffic, her heart filled with boundless fear. Even if she hated these two to the bone, she didn't want to die, nor was she willing to.

"Sister, I will take good care of your fiancé. You can go in peace." As she spoke, Gu Yan'an mercilessly pried Gu Yanxi's hand away.

"Ah----"

A few seconds later, the sound of a body hitting the ground resonated on the street, causing a significant panic with the gruesome sight.
