After hearing the footsteps receding, Zheng Tianming turned around and glanced back. Xu Mengyu was fast asleep, her hands clutching her hair, her legs wrapped in a blanket. There's a certain charm to being carefree...

The two were very intimate inside the tent, and it was already midnight when they returned to the cabin.

Xu Mengyu felt something cool beside her. She groggily opened one eye and looked around. Shen Yunxi was really clean; she was going to take a shower in the middle of the night.

He Kai smoked a cigarette outside before entering the wooden house. Before getting into bed, he covered Shen Yunxi with a blanket. "Isn't it normal to not be able to resist?" he told himself.

Early in the morning, everyone else got up, but Xu Mengyu clutched her stomach. Ever since she got pregnant with Xiaolu, she had been in excruciating pain every time she came, as if a hand was punching her inside her stomach. Her waist ached and felt weak, and she had no strength at all.

The crucial point is that her bag is gone, and naturally, her daily necessities are also missing. She's lying awkwardly on the bed, unable to move...

Zheng Tianming stood by the bed with a bowl of rice in his hand. He smelled blood and knew what had happened. She could never remember her own date. When she was in school, he would often go to buy her supplies and ask his classmates to deliver them to her.

She says she'll remember, but she forgets it again every few months.

"Continue washing your feet with cold water, and it's best to go soon," Zheng Tianming said, glancing at them.

Xu Mengyu closed her eyes, her face was a little pale. She didn't want to talk, her stomach hurt terribly, as if it were twisted up.

Seeing this, Zheng Tianming went outside. He burned some grass and wood, and put the ashes on his windbreaker. He also had a white short-sleeved shirt that he hadn't worn.

"Tianming, what are you doing?" He Kai looked at him in confusion; he was actually cutting his own clothes.

Zheng Tianming looked up at He Kai, remained silent for a moment, and did not answer.

Shen Yunxi sat under a tree, fanning herself. It was too hot, and she didn't want to get too close to the campfire because she would sweat and feel uncomfortable with the sweat sticking to her body. She had already taken care of He Kai and was just waiting for the right opportunity.

It would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid or nervous. She had previously cut up her rival's dress and given a laxative to a singer who had badmouthed her behind her back. This was the first time she had ever considered killing someone.

Zheng Tianming returned to the cabin with the prepared items. Xu Mengyu sat on the wooden bed, awkwardly covering herself with a thin blanket. She wanted to get out of bed, but as soon as she stood up, she felt a lump in her throat and a wave of dizziness.

Zheng Tianming spread the ashes on his bed and then laid the cut-off half-sleeve on top of it: "Come here." He stretched out his arm as he spoke.

Xu Mengyu shook her head. She wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground. What a despicable person! Who threw her bag? She didn't even need to guess who it was.

Zheng Tianming walked to the bedside, kneeled against the bed, and stretched out his arm: "What's so awkward about?"

"You can leave. I can manage on my own." Xu Mengyu's ears were a little red. She couldn't get up right now; she was dirty and disheveled.

Zheng Tianming picked the person up and glanced at him, his brows furrowing.

"I already told you to get out." Xu Mengyu looked at Zheng Tianming, who clearly looked down on her...

Zheng Tianming said impatiently, "Why are you talking so much nonsense?" After saying that, he put her on his bed.

Xu Mengyu lay on the bed, feeling dry and comfortable beneath her.

Zheng Tianming carried the straw mat that Xu Mengyu had laid out outside. He was very tall, so he had to bend over to go out...

Shen Yunxi went back to the wooden house to get her things and saw Xu Mengyu lying weakly on the bed with pale lips. As a woman, she naturally knew what was going on. The opportunity had come.

That evening, Shen Yunxi nestled in He Kai's arms, her voice low, "I don't want to go back. Brother He, please stay here with me, okay?"

"Okay, whatever you say." He Kai thought to himself, after all, he had touched the girl, so he would try his best to meet her request.

Shen Yunxi used almost every trick in the book to cling to He Kai, holding his hand and saying, "I want to eat wild berries. Can you go with Zheng Tianming tomorrow and pick some for me?"

She was afraid He Kai would feel uncomfortable, so she even changed how she addressed Zheng Tianming.

"Then I'll go now." He Kai said, reaching for his clothes. The moon was very bright today, so he didn't need to worry about not being able to see the way.

Shen Yunxi said in a coquettish tone, "No, it's so dark, I'm worried about you going out. I'll go with Tianming tomorrow." She needed to make some preparations later.

He Kai listened to Shen Yunxi's words.

He could have waited until Zheng Tianming returned before going, but Shen Yunxi cared about him, so he couldn't refuse.

"If I get pregnant, how about we get married after we leave? I can't raise pigs with you, but I can endorse your business and support you from behind." Shen Yunxi took He Kai's hand and placed it on her stomach. In fact, she had undergone surgery and could not get pregnant at all.

He Kai hugged Shen Yunxi and kissed her: "If you're willing, I'll try my best to make sure you don't suffer."

Shen Yunxi pouted. Of course she didn't want to. How much money could he make selling pigs for a year? It wouldn't even be half of her salary. Once she got rid of Xu Mengyu, she would find a way to get Zheng Tianming.

The two are incomparable in terms of physique and appearance. Even in terms of ability, He Kai is inferior to Zheng Tianming, not to mention their family background.

Xu Mengyu lay on the bed groaning. She didn't know what Zheng Tianming had given her to drink; it tasted terribly fishy. She hadn't seen it, so she couldn't describe it.

"Where did He Kai and Shen Yunxi go?" Xu Mengyu turned to look at Zheng Tianming lying next to her. Strange, they disappeared together in the middle of the night.

Zheng Tianming closed his eyes, his voice a little hoarse: "I'm going to clap."

Xu Mengyu: "..."

What a great "clapping"!

Xu Mengyu had stomach pains and couldn't sleep, tossing and turning, making the bed creak. When she was pregnant, she hid from the public eye, afraid of being photographed by paparazzi. On the third day after giving birth, in order to dispel the rumors, she went into the water to film a movie.

Zheng Tianming turned around and pulled the person into his arms: "Like a maggot."

"If all else fails, you might as well donate your mouth..." Xu Mengyu pressed her stomach tightly against Zheng Tianming, his body was very hot, and his familiar scent filled the air.

Zheng Tianming held Xu Mengyu with one arm and pulled down his belt with the other. Xu Mengyu instinctively curled up her legs, but her knees ended up hitting his sensitive area.

"Take it away." Zheng Tianming said in a deep voice, even his sleep was restless.

Xu Mengyu shook her head: "It's not like I insist on sleeping like this. I'll do whatever makes me comfortable." He's not happy; if he's uncomfortable, she's perfectly comfortable!

Zheng Tianming slipped his hand inside Xu Mengyu's clothes and grasped her half-circle through the fabric: "Okay, I'm comfortable sleeping like this."

“...”

Xu Mengyu silently lowered her leg.

However, Zheng Tianming showed no intention of backing down. He had been thinking about something for a while, and now it was too late to regret it.

"Shameless." Xu Mengyu tried to struggle, but as soon as she moved, his hand followed. She bit her lip lightly, and an unnatural blush appeared on her cheeks. Fortunately, he couldn't see it. In the end, she gave up.

After an unknown amount of time, Xu Mengyu finally fell asleep against Zheng Tianming's chest. Her warm breath tickled him intensely. Zheng Tianming pulled his hand away and got up to go to the "bathroom."

Zheng Tianming got up before dawn; he had barely slept.

"Tianming, I'll go pick some fruit with you." He Kai said, yawning. After two days of continuous activity, he was a little exhausted.

Upon hearing their conversation, Shen Yunxi quickly stood up and pulled out her long dress. It was a design from this year, with two ribbons on the arms that were tied together perfectly.

Zheng Tianming goes hunting every day to prepare for lunch and dinner. When Xu Mengyu is unwell, he needs to collect snake blood. This blood should not be consumed in large quantities, just a little is enough.

He Kai followed behind Zheng Tianming, his back aching slightly: "..."

Seeing that everyone had left, Shen Yunxi quickly came out of the tent. Her legs were trembling violently, and her heart was pounding wildly. She had previously acted in a TV series about a female forensic doctor and had learned some related knowledge.

Inside the wooden house, Xu Mengyu felt dizzy and couldn't get up. After hearing footsteps, she looked up and saw Shen Yunxi walking in carrying a bag.

No wonder she wanted to take a shower the night before last. But how could someone like her be interested in He Kai? That's really strange...

Shen Yunxi sat on the edge of the wooden bed, her palms sweating from nervousness: "Xu Mengyu, why is it that you have everything since birth, while I work my hardest but still can't compare to you?"

"Contentment brings happiness." Xu Mengyu didn't want to talk to her at first, but seeing her unusual seriousness, she replied anyway.

She only saw her outward success. She practiced dancing day and night, even memorizing lines in her dreams. Her life wasn't always smooth sailing; it was just that her privileged family background overshadowed her hard work.

But she can't stand up and say, "I got to where I am today through hard work." She didn't. She did get her abundant resources by standing on her father's shoulders. Even if people misunderstand that she has everything without working hard, she can't refute it.

"Do you know what President Li said?" Shen Yunxi said, touching her stomach. "He said that if he hadn't been unable to have you, he wouldn't have settled for second best."

In order to become the female lead, she went to see President Li, but he didn't like using protection and was afraid that she would get pregnant, so she had a sterilization operation. Once, when he was drunk, he said to her, "If I hadn't been unable to have Xu Mengyu, I wouldn't have chosen you as my second choice."

What she found even harder to accept was that at the banquet, President Li fawned over Xu Mengyu like a dog, even though Xu Mengyu didn't even remember who he was...

Immediately afterwards, Xu Mengyu snatched the endorsement she had worked so hard to get, making her a laughing stock and trending on social media for several days.

She came here wanting to compete with Xu Mengyu, but no matter how hard she tried, it was no use. Zheng Tianming and He Kai both kept their eyes on her.

She doesn't need to try; if she and Xu Mengyu seduce He Kai together, he will definitely choose Xu Mengyu without hesitation.

"Who is President Li?" Xu Mengyu showed a disgusted expression. He fantasizes about women in private. What a disgusting thing.

Shen Yunxi's expression changed. She stood up and walked to Xu Mengyu's bedside: "You'll never need to know..."

Xu Mengyu didn't understand Shen Yunxi's words. They had different experiences and values, and continuing to talk would only be pointless. She was exhausted and just wanted to sleep.

Shen Yunxi squinted, and the instant Xu Mengyu closed her eyes, she picked up a cotton pillow and covered her face.

"Hmm--"

Xu Mengyu was caught off guard. She didn't expect Shen Yunxi to suddenly cover her up. She was completely unprepared.

She knew Shen Yunxi wasn't a good person, but she never expected her to have such thoughts of killing someone. She struggled desperately, kicking her legs against the bed.

Shen Yunxi pressed down on the pillow with all her might, sweat trickling down her face...

Xu Mengyu was already feeling unwell, and now the pain was excruciating, but she would die if she didn't struggle!

Shen Yunxi gritted her teeth: "Blame yourself!"

Xu Mengyu felt a sharp pain in her chest. She struggled to breathe, straining with all her might, her chest heaving violently, her hands flailing wildly.

No wonder her father often reminded her that one should always be wary of others, but she never expected that Shen Yunxi would dare to kill someone!

Her mind went blank, the air in her lungs gradually disappeared, she gripped the edge of the bed with all her might, and finally she gave up struggling and her whole body went limp.

Shen Yunxi had never done anything like this before. Seeing that Xu Mengyu had stopped struggling, she slowly let go of her.

She hurriedly took the ribbons out of the bag and hung them on the beams of the wooden house, then ran out to get the prepared wood and placed it below.

She originally wanted to strangle Xu Mengyu, but that would leave two marks on her neck, and hanging and strangulation are different. Zheng Tianming had been a soldier, and she was afraid he would notice something amiss.

Xu Mengyu rolled her eyes and lay stiffly on the bed.

Shen Yunxi was so flustered that she tripped and fell while moving things. Her legs were shaking uncontrollably and her heart was pounding in her throat.

Shen Yunxi's face was pale, and she kept muttering, "Xu Mengyu, you can't blame me, it's all your fault, you shouldn't have argued with me about everything."

Xu Mengyu had struggled too hard, and when she dug her fingertips into the wooden bed, they drew blood. One person could actually take another's life out of jealousy.

At this moment, Zheng Tianming was walking back with a pheasant and a snake in his hands. He hadn't had much effort today; the pheasant had fallen into the trap on its own. He Kai was carrying a wooden basket filled with wild fruit.

Zheng Tianming originally wanted to persuade He Kai, but then he thought that since the two of them were already in a harmonious relationship, it would probably be useless to say anything.

"Tianming, if we can leave this place, I'll definitely treat you to a whole pig feast on the day I marry Yunxi." He Kai took a bite of the fruit; what was so delicious about it? His teeth were practically aching from the sourness.

Zheng Tianming: "..."

After making the preparations, Shen Yunxi planned to hang Xu Mengyu from the beam. She held her breath and walked towards the wooden bed...

Backstage at the live stream, the producer felt a chill run down his spine; he nearly collapsed to the ground. If President Xu knew that his precious daughter had been murdered, they would all be finished.

Chen Han was having dinner with investors when he received a call from the producer, and he suddenly stood up from his chair.

The producer's voice changed: "Director Chen, how... how do we explain this to... to President Xu..."

What's the point of explaining? If Xu Sichen finds out, none of them will live. Shen Yunxi, that idiot, actually dared to kill Xu Mengyu!

Sitting on the hotel sofa, Li Mirui watched the live stream. The comments section was filled with "Zheng Tianming cares for women." Her expression immediately changed. No way! Xu Mengyu's body simply couldn't take that kind of environment.

Xu Sichen was in a meeting when he received the call and got up to leave the meeting room.

Li Mirui stood up, her voice somewhat flustered: "Go and bring Mengyu back to me right now, or I'll turn on you right now."

Since his wife had spoken, Xu Sichen immediately instructed his assistant to prepare...
