Chapter 1: Time Travel

It was already midnight, and the lights were still on in the Prime Minister's mansion.

In the backyard, the young master and the maids and servants were gathered together.

Lady An, from the Prime Minister's mansion, held her head high and scolded in a stern voice, "The dignified young lady of the Prime Minister's mansion, engaging in such vulgar behavior behind everyone's back. Today, with the Prime Minister not in the mansion, I will clean up the mess for the Prime Minister's mansion!"

As soon as she said this, everyone looked at each other.

"Someone, give this shameless and disgraceful girl a good beating!"

The servants obeyed and pressed the unconscious girl onto a wooden board, and the sticks rained down on her body.

Under the cold moonlight, the beautiful girl lay on the wooden board, her white clothes stained with blood, a terrifying sight.

Seeing this, the servants and maids all looked panicked.

Suddenly, a quiet voice murmured in the crowd, "If she continues to be beaten like this, the young lady will be beaten to death."

"How dare you speak ill of the young lady? Drag him away and beat him to death with a stick!" Lady An glared at the crowd, and someone immediately stepped forward and dragged the person who spoke away. The pitiful cries for help echoed, and everyone fell silent.

Suddenly, the girl lying on the wooden board opened her eyes and stared at the glamorous and wicked Lady An in front of her.

She, Lin Luochen, a top medical research doctor from the future, found herself in this place.

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her head, and she was flooded with memories that did not belong to her. After the intense pain, she understood everything. She had crossed into the fictional world of Chen Guo, as the young lady of the Prime Minister's mansion. She had lost her mother at a young age, and her father favored Lady An, intending to marry her off.

She subconsciously touched her wrist and found that the top medical artifact had also crossed over with her, which calmed her down a bit.

Seeing her wake up, the beautiful face of Lady An showed a hint of satisfaction as she said, "Lin Luochen, you actually had an affair with a wild man. I have already sent someone to inform the master, and you can expect to be punished severely!"

The original owner was deceived by Lady An's daughter, Lin Xueyun, into this secluded courtyard, and was then caught by a stranger. Lady An led a group of people to catch them in the act, and the original owner was beaten to death.

Lin Luochen struggled to get up and took out an emergency pain relief pill from the artifact, which eased her physical pain.

She slowly walked up to Lady An, her eyes growing cold, and with a raised hand, she slapped Lady An across the face.

"Smack!"

Under the cold moonlight, the resounding slap struck a chord in everyone's hearts!

The servants and maids were all shocked, as the young lady had always been timid and never dared to speak out or make a wrong move in the mansion. But now, she dared to strike Lady An?

Everyone thought, could it be that the young lady was possessed?

Lin Luochen stared at the shocked Lady An and sneered, "You are nothing but a concubine bought by my father! I pitied you, but you dared to deceive me? Lady An, do you think you can deceive the world with such clumsy tricks?"

Lady An was shocked and couldn't believe that the usually weak waste of space would have such courage. She had never suffered such a loss before. Gritting her teeth, she pounced on Lin Luochen.

"Lin Luochen, how dare you hit me? You little wretch, you've gone too far!"

Lin Luochen's sharp eyes flashed, and as Lady An pounced, she raised her hand and delivered two more slaps to Lady An's face, causing her to fall to the ground.

"I hit you on purpose!" Lin Luochen scolded.

Lady An, struck by Lin Luochen, trembled and pointed at her, as if she had seen a fierce ghost.

"You... you had an affair with a wild man, and you will bring shame to the Prime Minister. You will not have a good end!"

Lin Luochen furrowed her brows and looked at Lady An, her voice icy, "Lady An, your schemes are too crude. Do you think you can deceive the world? Who is the Prime Minister? Ruthless and brutal. If he finds out about this, the entire Prime Minister's mansion will be buried with you! The underworld will not be complete without your name!"

Lady An trembled, and a flash of murderous intent passed through her eyes.

"The Prime Minister's mansion and the Prince's mansion have been betrothed by the late emperor. If the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's mansion dies, then Yun'er will take her place! Since it has come to this, I will not let you stay. Guards! Get her!"

In an instant, a group of loyal guards given to Lady An by the Prime Minister surrounded Lin Luochen.

After Lady An gave the order, Lin Luochen took out a smoke bomb from the artifact, covered her nose, and detonated it.

"Boom!"

With the chaos, she left. Before leaving, she looked deeply at Lady An, determined to never let her rise again!

After leaving, she headed straight to the Hua Temple to find her father. However, she was followed by pursuers, making her heart race. When she reached a temple near the mountain, she intended to go inside to treat herself, as her small body could barely hold on.

But as she approached the temple, she saw a group of people fighting with a man wearing a mask.

She quickly hid, watching as the man in the mask defeated the people surrounding him one by one, making her nervous.

Suddenly, a shining sword was placed at her neck.

"Who are you?" A cold voice came from behind!

Just out of the frying pan and into the fire!

Lin Luochen reached for a tranquilizer gun and pressed it against the person behind her, causing them to fall. Meanwhile, the man in the mask, distracted by the commotion, was stabbed in the back by someone!

Lin Luochen's pupils dilated, and she realized it was a bad situation. She raised the tranquilizer gun and fired two shots, knocking down the people behind the man.

Seeing that she was injured and had a weapon, the man quickly eliminated the remaining people.

A man was approaching her step by step, holding a large knife. Lin Luochen was afraid, and she raised the tranquilizer gun and aimed it at him.

"Drop it!" The man's tone was commanding, showing no fear despite having seen the power of the weapon.

Lin Luochen forced herself to stay calm and said, "Drop your knife!"

Blood was oozing from his chest, and he wore a silver mask on his face. His eyebrows were sharp, and his eyes were bright and piercing. Despite having seen many handsome men, Lin Luochen was momentarily distracted by his appearance.

Seeing her unusually calm, the man's eyes showed a hint of approval as he threw the knife aside.

Lin Luochen moved to the side of the knife and kicked it far away.

"Why are they chasing you?" Lin Luochen asked.

"The greater the curiosity, the quicker the death! Are you sure you want to know?" The man's blood was still flowing, and the smell of blood filled Lin Luochen's nostrils.

She knew that if the man wasn't treated soon, he would faint.

Feeling dizzy, the man touched his mask to make sure it hadn't fallen off and then commanded, "Take me to see a doctor!"

However, Lin Luochen didn't move. She looked at him warily and asked, "Who are you?"

Being pursued by someone meant his identity was not simple. If she took him for treatment and managed to escape the pursuit of the An family, but then his enemies found and killed her, wouldn't that be a loss?

"I told you! Curiosity kills!" The man's voice was cold, "And, you have no choice!"
