Chapter 80 -78: Wei Jincheng’s Fiancée

Gao Shu, who was bustling about in the kitchen, saw her return, her complexion still not looking good, and asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Your face suddenly looks so pale.”

“Ah Shu, I’m feeling a bit unwell, dizzy.”

“How come you’re suddenly dizzy? Let me take you to the hospital to have a look.”

Xia Lin suddenly grabbed him and said, “It’s probably because I didn’t have breakfast this morning, it’s all your fault.” After her words, a hint of shyness appeared on Xia Lin’s face to mask the panic in her heart.

Gao Shu laughed and said, “Blame me, blame me, I won’t do it again next time. You should lie down and rest for a while, I’ll go make you a bowl of brown sugar water.”

“Hmm.”

The person Xia Lin felt most remorse towards in her previous life was Xue Jianian. When she divorced Gao Shu, she followed Wei Jincheng, but she didn’t realize that Wei Jincheng was married.

In the second year with Wei Jincheng, she got pregnant, but so did Xue Jianian. To stay by Wei Jincheng’s side, she resorted to some methods, caused Xue Jianian’s child to be miscarried, and nearly died from a severe illness. While she was immersed in joy, she was suddenly beaten by Wei Jincheng, which caused her to miscarry too, rendering her unable to have children ever again in her life.

She never expected that Wei Jincheng, who was once so compliant towards her, would suddenly become so ruthless towards her. She had thought that Wei Jincheng didn’t like his lawful wife, but she was wrong. Not only did Wei Jincheng like her, but he also protected her very well, while she herself was just a tool for Wei Jincheng to embarrass Gao Shu.

By the time she realized Wei Jincheng’s true intentions, it was too late. After that, needless to say, she was given a lesson by Wei Jincheng and directly thrown out of his house, penniless.

She wanted to go find Gao Shu, but felt too ashamed to face anyone, so she left West City with her belongings. Unfortunately, fate thought she hadn’t suffered enough; she encountered human traffickers on the road and was heartlessly sold to a remote mountain village.

Those two years in the mountain village were the darkest and most helpless years of her life.

It was then that she suddenly came to her senses and felt regret. She regretted treating Gao Shu so heartlessly, regretted cruelly abandoning her own child, and regretted looking down on Gao Shu. But it was already too late.

During those two years, she thought about escaping every day, and indeed she tried to escape every day, but unfortunately, she never managed to get past the endless mountains and had a miserable fate every time she was caught and brought back.

The turn of events came two years later when the man who bought her had an uncle overseas with no heirs. So when he died, he left him a house and some money.

So she followed the man overseas. He was overjoyed to be overseas, inherited the property, and received quite a bit of money. But they faced difficulties with the language barrier and had trouble getting anything done.

However, the man cared too much about his pride to consider going back home. With the money in hand, he splurged day after day on clothes and various foods he had never tried before. Later on, he bravely ventured into nightclubs, believing that with money, one could gain entry despite the language barrier.

Returning from the nightclub drunk, he would take it out on her, and she would be beaten every two or three days.

Later, as the money dwindled, he made her go out and earn money. As a woman from a rural background with only a middle school diploma and no legal residence permit, the only work she could do was washing dishes.

Two years later, with expenditures outgrowing income, the man fell for a blonde. He started hanging out elsewhere, initially going missing for a day, then two, then a week, until he never returned again.

Five years later, the local police issued a death certificate for him. She didn’t know the details of his death; she only knew that by the time they found him, his body was already decomposing, and they found their home address on him.

The man’s death made her very happy. She not only got a house, but she was also free from his violence forever.

It was then that she was going to be deported back to Hua Country. But fortune seemed to favor her; the owners of the shop where she often worked were from a country neighboring Hua Country and were about to move back home. They had no children and thought well of her, so they wanted to take her as their goddaughter.

After selling the property, she followed the elderly couple to their homeland.

Once there, she helped the couple run their restaurant and also attended an adult technical school, learning to design clothing.

Ten years later, the couple passed away one after the other, and using the money saved over the years, she opened a clothing factory.

Once the factory was on its feet, she finally set out to return to Hua Country.

By that time, they were all in their twilight years. Only after coming back did she discover that Gao Shu had become a famous entrepreneur and was still single.

She thought she could reignite the old flame, but sadly, before the two could spend their remaining years together, she found herself here.

Xia Lin was excited for a long time. In her previous life, she had read many novels of this era, with themes like transmigration armies and rebirth armies, and transmigration always comes with a space ability.

She tested for a month, but unfortunately, she had no such space. However, knowing the future development of society still gave her a considerable edge. Thinking back to her previous life, not going to the university like Gao Shu and getting pregnant early was the start of her life’s darkness, so in this life, she secretly studied. When the college entrance examination came, she was determined to leave with Gao Shu.

As for Lu Jingqiu, thinking of her miserable fate in the previous life, Xia Lin felt that she didn’t need to do anything; Lu Jingqiu would not end up well anyway.

Unfortunately, the incident that was supposed to happen that night did not occur, which puzzled her for a long time. It wasn’t until her mother became ill and passed away that she felt maybe it was her butterfly effect that had allowed Lu Jingqiu to escape that fate. Although her life was slightly different from her previous one, in this life, she still wouldn’t receive Gao Shu’s response.

Indeed, it was Wei Jincheng who, in her previous life, had subjected her to inhumane treatment, leading her to be away from Gao Shu and her children for decades.

After returning to West City, she had deliberately asked someone to visit Wei Jincheng’s hometown and destroy whatever he held dear.

Yet that person had clearly told her that Wei Jincheng was already dead.

What was happening now?

Compared to Xia Lin’s long-lost thoughts, Lu Jingqiu and Xue Jianian didn’t have too many concerns.

Xue Jianian felt at ease, renting this room indeed had a purpose, but the mystery of Xia Lin wanting to harm her had always puzzled her, and she had to find out the truth.

All the way, Lu Jingqiu thought about her good sister, wanting to ask, but fearing it would be too abrupt.

In the end, it was Xue Jianian who broke their silence, “Comrade Lu, how do you know my brother Jincheng?”

“Ah, I don’t know him.”

“…”

“What I mean is, I’m not familiar with him, but I know he is the most popular male comrade in our military region.”

“Hehe, he must have upset quite a few young ladies then.”

Lu Jingqiu didn’t know what to say and just gave an awkward laugh.

“My brother Jincheng is too handsome, too eye-catching, I’ve come this time to keep an eye on him, in case someone steals him away.”

Lu Jingqiu nodded in agreement, “Right, you have to keep a close watch on your own man. Does he know you’re here?”

Xue Jianian didn’t answer, but laughed and said, “I’m here to attend university. I’ve just finished my exams, and the results will be out next week.”

“Is that so? I’m also applying for university, which one did you apply for?”

“Agricultural University. My dream is to become the wealthiest farmer in this lifetime. Once I have money, I plan to contract thousands of acres of good land in the suburbs, and then I’ll have endless rice, flour, fruits, and grains.”

“Your ambitions are very practical, I’ve had similar thoughts before.” During her time in the convalescent home, she had spent a large part of her time hungry, once so starved that at one meter sixty-five, she weighed just over seventy pounds. Back then, her wish had been the same.

Xue Jianian laughed, looking at her and asked, “Which school did you apply for?”

“West City Academy of Fine Arts. Speaking of which, it’s very close to the Agricultural University.”

Xue Jianian laughed, “You must really like painting.”

Lu Jingqiu: “Yes, how did you know?”

Xue Jianian hurriedly explained, “…I saw many paintings at your house.”

“The house has been a bit messy lately, sorry for that.”

“You’re very good.”

Lu Jingqiu smiled, finding this female comrade quite interesting.

Meeting a compatible tenant was indeed rare.

At the carpenter’s, Xue Jianian did not ask for much, but Lu Jingqiu still ordered her a big bed and a large wardrobe, bought an iron pot at the supply and marketing cooperative for twelve industrial coupons and fifteen yuan, and also spent five yuan on a stove not far away. As for the coal balls, Xue Jianian had to buy them herself.

Renting a room, all in all, had cost more than twenty yuan, tsk, more than two months’ rent gone. Of course, if the rent was high, everything should be provided for the tenant.

The two parted ways, and by the time Lu Jingqiu got home it was already past one in the afternoon.

She quickly made herself a bowl of noodles, then took Hua Hua upstairs to do her own work.

Meanwhile, after eating at a restaurant outside, Xue Jianian went to the farmer’s market to buy things like ladles, basins, bowls, and chopsticks with her tickets.

After arranging everything at home, she looked towards Xia Lin’s house for a long while before returning to her room.
