Eight boyfriends, one big secret- and they all found out 1Eight boyfriends, one bi
Their gazes as they looked at me were full of intense regret and pain.
They seemed to have a thousand things they wanted to say to me.
They looked just like the tragic second male leads in TV dramas.
It was… a bit funny.
I ignored them and turned to leave with Lucas.
But the following days made me feel that it would have been better not to reveal the
truth!
After learning the truth, these eight were so regretful their intestines turned

They were on the verge of kneeling and begging for my forgiveness while crying.
They even said that it didn’t matter if I didn’t like them.
All eight of them were willing to be my backup options forever.
To be my lifelong good friends..
Good grief, why does this sound so familiar?

Oh right, it’s what Sophia Lin had said to them before.
Sophia Lin liked having nine people as her mundane companions, living freely and casually.
But I’m not that ridiculous!
I seriously said to them: “I have a boyfriend now. We’re very much in love. Please don’t come looking for me anymore.”
Hearing this, the eight of them looked even more pained and unwilling.
Finally leaving with the words: “I won’t give up.”
Then they all left decisively.

I still puzzled at how smoothly they left this time, when I turned and saw Lucas approaching with a frown.
Lucas said that with these eight pursuing me so relentlessly, they’d probably keep bothering me in the future.
He suggested I stay at his place for a while. He wasn’t busy and could drive me to and from work.
With him around, he could beat them up each time they came. Eventually they’d probably stop bothering me.
What an absolute angel Lucas is.
I gratefully agreed.
After I moved in with Lucas, the eight of them came a few times but were all beaten up by Lucas.
Finally they settled down quite a bit.
To thank Lucas, I decided to personally cook him a big meal.

We went to the nearest supermarket together
But we ran into two women who looked very similar to me.
One was a well–maintained, elegantly dressed wealthy lady.
The other was a middle–aged woman with deep frown lines who didn’t look like someone
to mess with.
The two women had very similar facial features, but the middle–aged woman looked much more weathered and older than the wealthy lady.
I heard the middle–aged woman call the wealthy lady “sister” and cry, begging her for help, saying she knew she was wrong.
Amidst their argument, they also spotted me standing not far away. They both looked shocked.
Lucas glanced over, frowning slightly, then pulled me away.
–
Only after we got back did I learn –
The wealthy lady was Sophia Lin’s mother, Mrs. Lin.
The other middle–aged woman was Mrs. Lin’s twin sister.
Mrs. Lin came from a humble background but was very accomplished. She and Mr. Lin were college classmates and married after graduation.
Mrs. Lin’s sister dropped out of school at a young age and often hung around with a small–time thug, developing bad habits.
Over twenty years ago, Mrs. Lin’s sister unexpectedly got pregnant, not knowing who the father was.
With nowhere else to go, she stayed at Mrs. Lin’s home. The two children were born around the same time.
But the next year, Mrs. Lin’s sister actually set her sights on her brother–in–law. She snuck

But the next year, Mrs. Lin’s sister actually set her sights on her brother–in–law. She snuck into his room one night when Mrs. Lin wasn’t home.
Fortunately Mr. and Mrs. Lin had a good relationship.
He angrily berated her and kicked her out of the bedroom.
After that, Mrs. Lin’s sister was driven out of the Lin family.
She had been missing all these years.
After hearing this, I sighed inwardly. Mr. and Mrs. Lin sounded like quite upright people.
I never imagined their daughter Sophia Lin would turn out to be such a lunatic.
She must have been spoiled rotten growing up.
A couple days later was Lucas’s mother’s birthday.
Lucas’s mother had heard him mention me before and invited me to join them for a meal.
I didn’t want to go at first.
But Lucas said his mother had been pressuring him to find a girlfriend lately, so he asked me to help him deal with his family.
He’d helped me so many times. I couldn’t refuse such a small request, so I readily agreed.
When we arrived, I realized it wasn’t just an ordinary family dinner.
Over a hundred people had been invited to the birthday banquet.
Everyone was dressed glamorously all wealthy and influential people.
I was stunned. Although Sophia Lin had said before that Lucas’s parents wouldn’t approve of me, his car, clothes and home had all been very modest.
I never imagined his family was even richer than those eight men!

At the banquet, I saw my eight ridiculous ex–boyfriends.
As well as Sophia Lin and her group of girlfriends.
None of their families were as wealthy as the Lin family.
They usually followed Sophia Lin around flattering her, acting as her little minions.
While Lucas went to find his parents, Sophia Lin’s girlfriends surrounded me.
They started coldly mocking me one after another:
“So this is the poor girl who stole Sophia’s man?”
“Her entire outfit probably doesn’t even cost $10,000. She’s just a knockoff. I can’t believe those blind fools actually fell for her! To think our Sophia risked her life to save them – what a bunch of ungrateful scoundrels!”
“You’re just a penniless orphan. How dare you come to a place like this? You don’t really think that just because those nine like you, their families would agree to let you marry in? Keep dreaming! Our Sophia is the Lin family’s daughter. She’s the daughter–in–law all the aunties and uncles in our circle want. What are you compared to her!”
“Hmph, if you know what’s good for you, I suggest you get out of here quickly. They may be paying special attention to you now, but that’s just novelty. How can you compare to our Sophia with your poor and shabby looks? They’ll go back to Sophia sooner or later. Look, you’ve been here so long but Mrs. Lee hasn’t even glanced at you once. She clearly looks down on someone like you.”
Sophia Lin then spoke up softly, but her eyes held pride and disdain:
“Don’t say such things. Even though her family background is poor, she was born in an orphanage, and her character isn’t good, it’s still not right to bully a girl like this…”
The minions smiled fawningly at Sophia Lin: Sophia, you’re just too kind. With such a good family background, yet still so gentle and considerate. This poor trash dares to bully you. I’ll teach her a good lesson for you today!”

I was speechless. Nothing good ever comes from getting involved with Sophia Lin.
But this farce didn’t last long. Soon Lucas returned, and they all retreated to the side, not daring to make another sound.
Lucas swept an expressionless gaze over them, saying his mother wanted to meet me and asked him to bring me over.
Hearing Lucas say this, Sophia Lin and the others‘ expressions changed slightly.
They probably didn’t expect Mrs. Lee to actually take the initiative to meet a poor person
like me.
When we came before Mrs. Lee, I saw Mrs. Lin standing beside her.
Mrs. Lee warmly took my hand: “So you’re the child who saved Lucas back then? I didn’t expect you to grow up so pretty. I’ve wanted to meet you for a long time, but Lucas was so protective, refusing to let me see you no matter what. How stingy of him.” As she spoke, she glared at Lucas. “Let me be clear – I only acknowledge this one daughter–in–law. If you switch to someone else in the future, I won’t agree.”
But as soon as Mrs. Lee finished speaking, eight wealthy ladies suddenly surrounded me, all warmly encircling me in the middle.
One of them took my other hand and said: “Mrs. Lee, that’s not right. This is clearly the girl our Ethan has his eye on. You can’t steal her from us. Child, I know Ethan has wronged you. I’ve already scolded him. You saved his life back then, so he should dedicate himself to you from now on.”
A bejeweled lady who looked like a nouveau riche grabbed my other hand: “What nonsense. This is our Ryan’s girlfriend. Although they had a falling out recently, they’ll definitely make up. Child, thank goodness you saved Ryan back then. As long as you marry our Ryan, I’ll buy you a wedding house right now!”
The other wealthy ladies refused to be outdone. They all started fighting over me, wanting to betroth me to their sons.
Mrs. Lee grew anxious and quickly called relatives to pull them away.
Then she shielded me behind her and shouted: “Where are the security guards? Throw them out! How dare they come to someone else’s home to steal a daughter–in–law!”
I was dumbfounded.
How is this so different from the expected script?!
I looked around in bewilderment.
I saw the eight lunatics cheering on their mothers from the side.
I also saw Lucas leading security guards to drive people away, a dark expression on his face.
Finally, my gaze landed on Sophia Lin’s face.
The kind and gentle smile could no longer be maintained on her face. She gritted her teeth, her expression twisted.
She glared at me hatefully.
She hated that I had stolen her men.
Stolen everything that should have belonged to her.
Her minions were also dumbfounded. One of them said in shock: “Wasn’t it Sophia who saved those nine people back then? How did it suddenly become this poor country bumpkin…”
Before she could finish speaking, Sophia Lin turned to glare at her angrily.
The minion’s face froze. She quickly put on a smile and said: “Sophia, don’t lower yourself to her level. You’re the Lin family’s daughter. These ladies are just being polite. Who would actually marry a penniless country girl into their family!”
Sophia Lin gritted her teeth, her expression finally improving slightly.
But just then, amidst the pushing and shoving, the jade bracelet my parents had left me

Sophia Lin gritted her teeth, her expression finally improving slightly.
But just then, amidst the pushing and shoving, the jade bracelet my parents had left me was revealed on my arm.
Mrs. Lin beside us suddenly turned pale. She rushed over and grabbed my hand.
Mrs. Lee said in alarm: “Mrs. Lin, your family doesn’t have a son. Why are you joining in
on this commotion!”
Mrs. Lin’s eyes reddened as she hugged me with tears in her eyes.
She said emotionally: “Child, I’ve been searching for five years and finally found you!
You’re my long–lost daughter from over 20 years ago!”
In an instant, everyone was stunned.
