Chapter 2

No one knew.

In her previous life, Shen Ping married her fiancé, Lu Zhengguo, as she wished, but she never expected that he would leave on their wedding night, followed by news of his death in battle.

From then on, she became a widow, and she was constantly harassed by her in-laws.

In the end, she was tricked by a hooligan, losing both her money and her body, and was sold to a remote mountain, becoming a wife and giving birth to children for several men.

Her step-sister, Shen Man, on the other hand, relied on her looks to marry Lu Zhengguo’s childhood friend, and later became the wife of a wealthy businessman, enjoying a loving marriage and having both a son and a daughter.

After being reborn, she let her step-sister seduce Lu Zhengguo, while she used her to get closer to Gu Yang.

But why did this man who died in battle in her previous life come back alive?

Lu Zhengguo looked up at the still closed door, silent for a moment.

He carried his luggage and walked over, aiming at the closed door, he raised his leg and kicked it open.

With a bang, the door was kicked open.

Instantly, everyone looked inside without exception.

Lu Zhengguo walked in with a cold face.

The people who were watching the show rushed forward, clinging to the door frame, stretching their necks to look inside.

Wang Luoxue directly pulled Shen Ping’s hand and rushed in, “Xiaoping, weren’t you going to deliver the meat to your sister, come on, I’ll take you in to see what’s going on.”

Shen Ping quickly suppressed her complex emotions, her steps were quick, but she said, “Luoxue, it’s not good, we shouldn’t go in.”

“What’s wrong with that, she treated you like that before, why are you still giving that shameless woman any face.”

With the first person rushing in, others followed, wanting to see the show.

“Hurry, hurry, it’s too late and you won’t get a good seat.”

Lu Zhengguo strode into the room and lifted the curtain of the inner room.

He wanted to see what this disgusting woman was still doing under the guise of his wife.

If that was the case, then don’t blame him for being merciless.

However, he quickly scanned the room and didn’t see any indecent scenes.

Lu Zhengguo’s gaze paused, falling on the bed.

There was clearly someone lying there.

At this time, Wang Luoxue and Shen Ping also rushed in.

When she saw the bulging quilt on the bed, she rushed forward without hesitation, wanting to pull the quilt off.

“I knew it, a dog can’t change its spots, Shen Man, you shameless bitch, you dare to cheat on someone in broad daylight.”

“Today I’m going to let everyone see your true colors.”

Lu Zhengguo was about to step forward to stop her, but he accidentally discovered that the window was open, with a faint footprint on it.

He instantly retracted his steps, watching coldly as things unfolded.

Shen Ping seemed to rush forward to pull Wang Luoxue, but in fact, she didn’t make any move, “Luoxue, don’t, no matter what, she’s my sister.”

The other people who rushed in to watch the show crowded the small room, instantly the air in the room became thin.

“What sister, you’re not related by blood, you’re just a burden brought in by your stepmother.”

“Xiaoping, don’t forget, it was because of their mother and daughter’s instigation that your father didn’t love you.”

The next second, the quilt was pulled off.

A flushed and charming face appeared before everyone, making people involuntarily blink.

This situation was clearly abnormal.

Shen Man, dragging her weak body, sweating profusely, sat up from the bed, looking up at the people.

“What are you doing?”

Silence filled the air, everyone was silent, looking at Lu Zhengguo.

Shen Man seemed to have noticed something, her eyes swept over everyone present, finally landing on the tall and imposing man.

She was clearly stunned, she raised her hand and touched her forehead, muttering to herself, “Am I delirious? I actually dreamed of a dead person…”

As soon as these words came out, the people who were watching the show started discussing.

“It turns out she’s sick, no wonder I thought her complexion was off, she must have been burning too badly and didn’t hear the knock on the door.”

“Didn’t Luoxue say she saw Shen Man cheating with her own eyes? I don’t see anyone else in here?”

Lu Zhengguo frowned slightly, carefully observing the abnormalities on her body.

Wang Luoxue’s face turned pale when she heard these words, she pointed at her and shouted, “Alright, Shen Man, look at your seductive look, why don’t you just say where your lover is?”

She clearly heard a man’s voice in the room, and she also heard some ambiguous sounds.

Shen Man rubbed her temples, a little puzzled, “What lover, what are you talking about, I don’t understand, and why are you breaking into my house?”

“I’m not feeling well now, I just finished taking medicine and lay down, please leave, I need to rest.”

Wang Luoxue rolled her eyes, “If you won’t say, then I’ll find it myself.”

She said, she looked around the room, her eyes locked on the closet, she rushed over and opened the closet, there were only clothes inside, no one.

Wang Luoxue’s face looked a little bad, how could there be no one?

Shen Ping, standing beside her, her face changed slightly, a faint uneasiness in her heart.

Apart from the closet, there was no place to hide in the room, could it be that Shen Man had noticed something.

She looked at Shen Man, she was still the same person.

Shen Man’s face turned cold, unnoticed by anyone, her hand hidden under the blanket, she pinched her thigh hard, trying to stay awake.

“Wang Luoxue, are you done searching, if you’re done, get out, who told you to run around other people’s houses and go crazy?”

Wang Luoxue was a little uncomfortable, she glared at her fiercely, “Who knows if your lover ran away beforehand?”

She wasn’t doing it on purpose, who told Shen Man to be so promiscuous.

Shen Ping stepped forward, smiling to smooth things over, “Sister, Luoxue didn’t mean it, she was just worried about you today.”

Suddenly, she changed her tone and walked towards the window, “Right, sister, how come your window is open, you’re running a fever, it’s not good to catch a cold, I’ll close it for you.”

Shen Man’s body stiffened, the hand hidden under the blanket, the force of pinching her thigh suddenly increased.

“No need, it’s too stuffy in the room, I like to air it out.”

Lu Zhengguo’s eyes were deep, he looked at Shen Man with scrutiny.

He strode towards the window and closed it before Shen Ping, blocking the faint footprint, “Xiaoping, you guys go out first, I’ll be fine here.”

Shen Ping was stunned, she stopped and hesitated to nod, “Alright, Zhengguo, then I’ll trouble you to take care of my sister, if she’s acting strange, can you please talk to her nicely for my sake?”

Lu Zhengguo’s expression was cold, “You take the others out first, your sister is sick, I’ll take care of her.”

“Aunties, you guys go out too.”

The people who were watching the show, not seeing the scene they imagined, could only leave.

Shen Ping also dragged Wang Luoxue away.

Only Lu Zhengguo and Shen Man were left in the room.

The air around them instantly froze.

The man turned his back to Shen Man, looking at the footprint on the window sill, “You were drugged?”

His words were soft, but very firm.

Because her current appearance was almost exactly the same as when she was drugged and climbed into his bed, she wasn’t running a fever at all.
