On the night of her wedding, the husband left for a mission as a soldier. For three years, Su Yueya dutifully took care of her mother-in-law. Just as she finally waited for her husband to be promot...
At the entrance of the military region, female soldiers and members of the Meng family were locked in a struggle.
"call--"
Meng Yingxin opened her eyes and saw Su Yueya staring at her with concern and excitement, seemingly shouting something excitedly.
"She's awake! Meng Yingxin is awake!"
The memory abruptly ended.
Meng Yingxin lay on her bed in the dormitory, using the curtains to block her roommates' view, staring at the bracelet on her wrist that she had just snatched from Wu Xiulan.
She was truly reborn because of that slogan...
Meng Yingxin stroked the patterns on the bracelet, memories flooding back. Then, she drew her military knife and, without hesitation, slashed down—
The gleaming blade sliced through her fingertip, and Meng Yingxin quickly dripped the blood onto her bracelet.
"bite--"
"Contract complete."
Everything was exactly the same as before. Meng Yingxin heard that familiar voice again, and she felt a little more at ease.
The reason she had to snatch the bracelet back so quickly was twofold: firstly, as she said, Wu Xiulan was not worthy of the gift she had given with all her heart; secondly, although she had been reborn, she still needed the weapon space to protect herself, and she had to take a gamble to determine whether the bracelet still had the space.
Fortunately, Meng Yingxin won her gamble; the bracelet was still the same bracelet and could still create a space.
"Meng Yingxin, we're going to the cafeteria for lunch, do you want to come?" her roommate called out from inside the dorm, not daring to lift Meng Yingxin's bed curtains directly.
“I’m not going,” Meng Yingxin replied coldly.
These roommates were all people who had bullied her in the past. If she could, she would certainly not want to live with them, because they were destined not to be friends.
However, because of what happened at the military base gate and her subsequent rebirth, she no longer harbored strong hatred for these people.
It's best to keep to ourselves and not interfere with each other.
"Fine, if she doesn't want to come with us, then she doesn't have to. We already asked her opinion anyway," my roommate said.
“Yeah, let’s go quickly,” another roommate said.
Meng Yingxin heard the door close, but her emotions remained unchanged.
She drew the bed curtains tightly shut and then entered the weapon space.
"That's great, just like always..."
This sense of order and familiarity made Meng Yingxin feel particularly at ease.
Because of her rebirth, she still possesses all the memories and experiences from her previous life, including the knowledge she had learned and the skills she had gradually honed—although she wasn't that powerful, she was still much stronger than she was now, unable to pass the test.
"It seems that the stories Dr. Su told me are really true. Being given a second chance at life is a blessing. With these help, revenge is indeed much easier."
However, Meng Yingxin's strongest desire right now is not revenge, but to settle herself down first, and then find a way to reconnect with Qiao Shouyan...
"There's no rush. I have plenty of time. Let me read first."
Meng Yingxin found the weapons-related books she had studied before and began to review them...
Meanwhile, after reporting her work to the medical department, Su Yueya went home after work.
"Major news!" Su Yueya announced as soon as she got home.
"What happened?" Qiao Xinruo was the first to jump out and asked anxiously, "Is it what happened at the military region gate today? I've heard about it. It seems that the female soldier in your mission was chased to the military base by her family. What exactly happened?"
If it were just a casual, lively event, Su Yueya certainly wouldn't have spoken of it so seriously; at most, she would have mentioned it casually during a chat.
Since they've said it, it proves it's not simple.
Liu Yuying and her husband, along with her two brothers, also sat down and listened attentively.
“Xinruo is right, it’s exactly what happened at the military base today, and the person who was brought here by her family to cause trouble is my brother’s future wife! I met her!” Su Yueya said excitedly.
Qiao Gaoyang knew about Leng Yingying's earlier remarks about her future sister-in-law, so the whole family knew about it too.
Things happen one after another, and I never expected that Su Yueya would run into this so soon.
It seems the eldest son's love star has already set in motion.
"Future sister-in-law?" Qiao Xinruo and Qiao Gaoyang exchanged a glance and began to chatter amongst themselves.
"What's your sister-in-law's name?"
How old are you this year?
"What does she look like? Is she like a celestial being?"
"Was my sister-in-law bullied? What exactly happened?"
Su Yueya: "..."
Can you give her a chance to speak?
"Crescent Moon, tell us what happened to you today." Even the usually composed Liu Yuying and Qiao Hanxue were getting impatient.
There's nothing we can do; this involves the feelings of our eldest son, who's as dense as a block of wood. What parent could remain indifferent to this?
The whole family was extremely excited, and although Qiao Shouyan didn't say anything and didn't act as outgoing as the others, he secretly pricked up his ears and listened carefully to every word Su Yueya said, trying not to miss any key words.
"Let me explain slowly, okay?" Su Yueya said irritably.
"Wait a minute!" Qiao Gaoyang fawned over Su Yueya, first pouring her a cup of spiritual spring water, then said ingratiatingly, "Yueya, speak slowly, and moisten your throat if you get thirsty!"
Su Yueya: "..."
She shook her head before explaining Meng Yingxin's situation.
"My future sister-in-law is one of the members of this female soldier training camp. She hasn't passed the assessment yet. Her name is Meng Yingxin, and she's 18 years old."
"What?!" Qiao Gaoyang suddenly interrupted loudly.
The whole family turned their attention to Qiao Shouyan, finding it utterly unbelievable.
The two Qiao brothers are 26 years old this year, and the two sisters are 24 years old. Compared to them, Meng Yingxin, who is only 18 years old, is just a "child".
"Brother, you really can't judge a book by its cover. How did you manage to marry a woman eight years younger than you?" Qiao Gaoyang questioned, staring at Qiao Shouyan with a scrutinizing gaze. "Tsk tsk tsk..."
“My future sister-in-law is too young. Is this... not a good thing?” Qiao Xinruo also said, feeling that the age difference between Meng Yingxin and Qiao Shouyan was too great.
Qiao Shouyan: "..."
No, how can you blame him? He hasn't even done anything yet... Isn't that unfair?!
“My eldest daughter-in-law is indeed a bit young. I don’t know what her family situation is like. Will they be willing to let her be with Shouyan? Will they look down on him because he’s too old?” Liu Yuying asked worriedly, afraid that the matter would not go through.
Qiao Shouyan: "..." Am I already an older single man?
Su Yueya: "..."
At this rate of being interrupted every single sentence, how long would it take to finish explaining the whole thing?
"So, are you still going to listen to me or not?" Su Yueya asked, as if she would leave immediately if they didn't want to listen.
“Listen, listen, come on, Crescent Moon, you continue,” Qiao Gaoyang said.
Su Yueya rolled her eyes at him and continued speaking.
