  Ning Shu’s task was to retaliate against Bai Yiqiao and Li Gouzi. So naturally, she wouldn’t allow Bai Yiqiao to enjoy such a beautiful future.

  If you were reborn, enjoy your second life. Why bother ruining other people’s lives?

  Ning Shu asked Chen Li, “Brother, what kind of woman do you want to marry?”


  Chen Li scratched his head. “Of course, a woman that treats me well. But if she looked pretty that would be even better.”


  The corner of Ning Shu’s mouth twitched.

  Without strength, having beauty was a calamity. This was true for both men and women.

  Bai Yiqiao’s situation became difficult after Ning Shu said those suggestive words. The main issue was that Li Gouzi had been in her house.

  What Bai Yiqiao suggested earlier was that Chen Ermei and Li Gouzi had agreed to bump into each other at her house and that Chen Ermei was learning to weave knots as an excuse to secretly meet with Li Gouzi.

  But now that nothing had happened between Chen Ermei and Li Gouzi, she was implicated by the misunderstanding instead.

  Bai Yiqiao couldn’t help but inwardly criticize Li Gouzi for being such useless trash.

  When Fang Yong came back home with two pheasants, Bai Yiqiao deliberated awhile then told Fang Yong about what had happened.

  Fang Yong, who had a herculean physique, lifted the tied-up Li Gouzi and gave him a solid beating, causing Li Gouzi to emit bloodcurdling screams.

  Bai Yiqiao was angry at Li Gouzi, so she allowed Fang Yong to beat him up without interfering.

  Still, Fang Yong was a person with a sense of propriety, so after teaching Li Gouzi a lesson, he stopped and threw Li Gouzi out of the Fang family’s yard. Fang Yong pointed at Li Gouzi and harshly said, “If you dare step foot in my house again, I will break your leg.”


  Bai Yiqiao’s legs instinctually became cold when she heard Fang Yong threaten to break Li Gouzi’s leg. Her legs had been broken in her previous life, and that feeling of her bones shattering still made her shudder.

  Ever since she was reborn, she felt like she was dreaming, and that she would wake up someday and find herself still crawling on the ground, with a broken bowl in front of her, begging people who walked past her for some money or some food.

  She would never live like that again in this lifetime. She just wanted to live peacefully with Fang Yong.

  Fang Yong was a hunter who spent his time hunting in the mountains all year round. The amount of blood on his hands gave him a vicious aura. Fang Yong’s cold face was so fearsome that Li Gouzi, who bullied the weak and feared the strong, almost pissed his pants in fright. He didn’t dare say anything.

  Bai Yiqiao said to Fang Yong, “Li Gouzi said that he was here to see Chen Ermei and that he had agreed to meet with her. So he slipped into the room, but he fell asleep.”


  Fang Yong furrowed his thick black eyebrows and said doubtfully, “Why did Chen Ermei want to meet Li Gouzi at our house?”


  Fang Yong was a man who fought beasts using his wits and bravery in the mountains and forests. If he really had no brains, how could he rise through the ranks in the army and become such an outstanding figure?

  Bai Yiqiao pursed her lips and deliberately said, “I don’t know. I suppose Father Chen was too strict with her so she had to resort to this method.”


  Fang Yong warned her, “Don’t believe what people like Li Gouzi say. Which girl in this village doesn’t avoid him like the plague? Chen Ermei is not stupid enough to be involved with this kind of person.”


  When Bai Yiqiao heard what he said, she immediately became unhappy. She had always felt that there was an unbreakable connection between Fang Yong and Chen Ermei.

  After all, the two had been husband and wife in their previous lives, and they even had children together.

  Even though she felt unhappy, Bai Yiqiao smiled and said, “So you understand Chen Ermei well?”


  “It’s not that I understand Chen Ermei. But as long as Chen Ermei doesn’t want to ruin herself, she will not have a relationship with Li Gouzi. Just by looking at him, you can tell that Li Gouzi is not someone that a woman can entrust her life with,” Fang Yong said with a smile.

  Fang Yong pinched Bai Yiqiao’s tender and fair cheeks. “Why do I feel like you’re jealous? You are my wife, and Chen Ermei has nothing to do with me. I’m only stating facts.”


  Bai Yiqiao swatted Fang Yong’s hand away and pretended to be angry. “I’m not jealous, you’re jealous.”
