Chapter 1 Pain comes from regret

The three great fortunes for a middle-aged man: promotion, wealth, and death of his wife.

Han Ning is the man, and Meng Shulan is the wife who was cheated to death.

When the cancer was diagnosed that year, Meng Shulan was destined to die soon. However, she never expected that she did not die of the disease, but was smothered to death by Han Ning with a pillow.

The man kept saying at the end: "Shulan, I was wrong. We won't get divorced, even if we die..."

Meng Shulan couldn't understand. He had been cheating on her for so many years and even had his mistress hanging out next to her bed. She was just getting a divorce, so why did he want to kill her? Something flashed in Meng Shulan's mind, and she felt that she must have been deceived.

The past events are like old slides covered with snowflakes. Meng Shulan wants to clear away the fog and explore the truth of fate.

It was just too difficult. The suffocating feeling of drowning swept over her thoughts like a tide. The pain in her body, the helplessness of half her life, and the memories were like blades, cutting her nerves and causing her heart-wrenching pain.

Someone once told her that pain comes from regret.

Meng Shulan thought, she regretted it!

In fact, the person she loved from the bottom of her heart was not him, but Han Ning was very manipulative, his words were full of false feelings, and he knew how to manipulate people, so she was manipulated without knowing it.

In that era, girls were conservative in their thinking and they dated with the intention of getting married. If the two families seemed to be a good match and there were no issues of principle, that was it.

On the day of her wedding, her sister asked her privately, "Why are you not happy on such a happy day?"

Meng Shulan didn't know what to say, she always felt something was wrong.

Her sister advised her, "Feelings need to be responded to. Han Ning is a good person and treats you very well. Just smile. Your future life will not be too bad."

Meng Shulan listened to the advice and decided that since they were already married, they should just live a good life.

During those years, she did everything she should do, and fell in love with him. Just when she thought Han Ning was a good person, reality slammed her hard into the gates of hell.

It turns out that feelings can be deceived and fate can play tricks on people.

Han Ning, he already had someone else outside when he married me.

How can people be so shameless!

Meng Shulan couldn't understand and didn't want to worry about it. There was no light in her eyes, her pupils were dilated, and her mind was blank.

She knew she was going to die.

When everything returned to dust, Meng Shulan did not go to heaven or hell as expected, but felt a hint of warmth and the aroma of dumplings.

"dumpling?"

"Yes, it's pork-filled. Shulan, try one."

Something was offered to her lips.

At this moment, Meng Shulan's originally scattered thoughts gathered together again like a beam of light. The light passed through her eyes, and everything around her gradually became clear. She saw that hypocritical face, that disgusting face.

But how did this face become younger? Handsome, youthful, with black-framed glasses on his nose and a neat and tidy hairstyle, this was not Han Ning at the age of 34, but Han Ning at the age of 18 or 19.

Meng Shulan frowned, shocked inside.

What the hell is this? But when she heard the teasing and laughter, she looked around blankly and found herself sitting in an old classroom.

This is an imitation Soviet-style building built in the 1950s and 1960s. It is a two-story building made of blue bricks and concrete, with a layer of white lime on the outside.

Looking at the portraits of great men hanging on the wall and the slogans unique to that era, some strange and absurd thoughts popped up in Meng Shulan's mind.

Is she back? This is the classroom where she repeated her studies. It is late autumn of 1980.

After reaching this conclusion, Meng Shulan stood up suddenly.

She moved too violently, and the stool behind her was knocked over and hit the ground with a bang. Her lower back was also hit by the corner of the table, causing her excruciating pain.

But the more pain Meng Shulan felt, the happier she was.

She is back, she is really back! It turns out that death is not the end, but another new life.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

"Shulan, what's wrong with you?"

Meng Shulan looked up.

Beside her, Han Ning was looking at her worriedly, and the originally bustling classroom became quiet at this moment. Everyone in the classroom, those familiar yet unfamiliar faces, were looking at this side with teasing and puzzled eyes.

Meng Shulan's heart moved, and she turned over her long-forgotten memories and finally figured out the situation.

It was on this day that Han Ning brought her a box of dumplings from the cafeteria, which invisibly confirmed their relationship.

In fact, it was just a box of dumplings, and she gave him some money afterwards. How did it become like she agreed to him in the end?

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

It all comes down to the fact that Han Ning, that scumbag, was too calculating. He spread rumors about the two of them in advance, so that's why everyone gathered around to watch the show and make a fuss at the beginning.

In my previous life, I was thin-skinned and didn't know how to explain all those twists and turns, which became a kind of tacit understanding in the eyes of outsiders.

Now that I think about it, I can’t blame my bad luck for ending up like that in my previous life. My initial stupidity was the key.

Meng Shulan carefully sorted out those memories that had already faded away, and her silence plunged the entire classroom into an eerie silence.

Han Ning saw that the eyes of many boys changed from envy to ridicule, so he made up his mind and reached out to grab Meng Shulan's arm.

However, Meng Shulan was quick-witted and picked up the book on the table and waved his hand away.

"Disgusting, dirty! Han Ning, don't touch me!!!"

Meng Shulan spoke every word with great emphasis, her eyes were as cold as ice, and after each word she uttered, her teeth were clenched tightly, a sign of her trying her best to suppress her anger.

Death and rebirth. Two minutes ago, this man suffocated himself with a pillow. Who wouldn't hate and be angry?

If it weren't for a peaceful era and a society ruled by law, it would be hard to say what Meng Shulan would do.

Her eyes were so cold, and there was a hint of murderous intent in them.

Han Ning was stunned and stood there at a loss.

The whole classroom was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone even breathed lightly, as if there was an invisible string stretched in the air that would break at the slightest touch.

At this moment, a peach-colored figure stood up, pointed at Meng Shulan, and spoke in a dissatisfied tone.

"Shulan, how could you treat Han Ning like this? Do you know how many good things he said to the chef in the cafeteria for this dumpling? If you don't like it, just give it to me. Why make Han Ning so embarrassed?"

She was a girl of seventeen or eighteen, with a deliberately pinched voice, like a vixen, so delicate and soft that it was annoying to listen to.

Meng Shulan frowned, looked sideways, and paused.

I was just focusing on the scumbag and forgot about the mistress for a moment.

Meng Shulan chuckled, looking at her with contempt and pity like a clown, "Ye Ran, of course you want it. After all, these dumplings were bought by your brother for you, but you gave them to Han Ning, and Han Ning brought them to me."
