Everyone was taken aback.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Zhihuan briefly recounted how Xie Lanshen had saved her during the explosion in the general store street.

"The streets were so chaotic that time that I didn't even want to think about what would have happened if I had tripped and fallen on the glass and been stepped on by someone."

Let alone disfigurement, a stampede could be so severe that it could even result in death.

"Therefore, I am always very grateful to Brother Xie."

"So when I heard that he had an accident and was unconscious, I thought I'd come and see if I could help in any way I could."

Shen Zhihuan's clear eyes were filled with sincerity, and every word she spoke was unpretentious.

Just by looking at her expression, you could tell that she had come with a sincere heart to repay the debt, genuine and earnest.

The three parents were increasingly satisfied with what they saw.

Grandpa Xie was so happy he almost couldn't hold his rice, his lips stretching into a wide grin.

Isn't this exactly the granddaughter-in-law he's always dreamed of?

No, he never dreamed that his cold-blooded, stinky grandson would marry such a wonderful granddaughter-in-law!

He could hardly sit still; he put his chopsticks down on the bowl, clapped his hands happily, and exclaimed in delight.

"What a coincidence! This is a destiny bestowed by heaven!"

“Zhihuan, look, there were so many people on the street, so many people in need of help, and Lan Shen just happened to save you.”

"And what a coincidence, in just a blink of an eye, you remembered Lan Shen's face."

"And another thing, the person who was originally supposed to marry into this family was your heartless older sister, but by some twist of fate, you were the one who got married instead."

"You remember Lan Shen's kindness, you went to break off the engagement, and in the process, you saved Lan Shen!"

The old man became more and more excited as he spoke, almost wanting to slam his fist on the table.

"Isn't this just a case of 'no coincidence, no story'?"

"It is said that it takes a hundred years of cultivation to share a boat ride, and every relationship is a hint of fate in the dark!"

"If there really was a past life, maybe you two actually knew each other!"

Grandpa Xie spoke eloquently, going from coincidence to gratitude, and from gratitude to fate, even more fluently than a storyteller on the radio.

It's almost as if they're saying Shen Zhihuan and Xie Lanshen were a couple in their past lives.

As Chen Zhihuan listened, he silently sweated.

We did know each other in our past lives, but that was all; we were never actually together.

Because in her past life, Xie Lanshen was actually her brother-in-law.

Strictly speaking, although Xie Lanshen and Shen Ling were married in their previous life, they were never together.

That's why Shen Ling always complains when she's blaming fate, saying that her husband died right after she got married and she didn't even get to enjoy her wedding night.

With her cunning, lazy, greedy, and profit-driven nature, she would naturally find life difficult in a family with such upright values ​​as the Xie family.

That's why she acts like a complaining woman, blaming everyone and everything and saying bad things about the Xie family.

In her previous life, Shen Zhihuan had never met Xie's grandparents, and for a long time, based solely on Shen's one-sided account, she genuinely believed that the Xie family was a den of wolves and tigers.

Now it seems that Shen Ling brought this upon herself, making Grandpa and Grandma Xie unable to tolerate it any longer.

Otherwise, even out of respect for her grandfather, they wouldn't have made things too difficult for her, the granddaughter-in-law whose husband had died shortly after they married into the family.

However, Xie Lanshen died shortly after his wedding in his previous life...

Chen Zhihuan's heart sank.

His sacrifice in his previous life was such a pity, and it was so wrong.

Even now, Shen Zhihuan still remembers how her master, Grandpa Wang, would sigh every time he mentioned Xie Lanshen.

His sacrifice was at least 70% due to his old illness, which was the lingering effect of this incident.

Shen Zhihuan recalled the illness she had discovered when she examined Xie Lanshen.

Even with such a severe brain contusion and laceration, the military hospital was unable to cure him.

If this condition is not treated properly, even a slight deviation can be like planting a time bomb in the body.

In the future, if I encounter any danger or get injured, it could trigger an explosion at any time, dragging me down completely.

Despite the severity of her illness, when Xie Lanshen went for a physical examination after waking up, the test report actually showed that all tests were perfect scores...

Shen Zhihuan read that test report countless times throughout her life, always feeling that there was something wrong with it.

How could someone recover so quickly in such a short time?

She was completely baffled at the time, not knowing which part of the process had gone wrong.

Unexpectedly, in this life, she ran right into this enemy agent.

The thought of that enemy agent darkened Shen Zhihuan's eyes again.

Although she didn't say it, she could imagine that the situation in her previous life was probably similar to that in this life.

Upon learning that Xie Lanshen had been discharged from the hospital after being seriously injured, this carefully arranged enemy agent used his so-called "medical theories" to prescribe random medications and treat Xie Lanshen haphazardly.

Their goal was nothing more than to worsen Xie Lanshen's condition, so that he could disappear from the world unnoticed under the pretext of "severe injuries leading to death."

In this way, they can achieve their goals effortlessly and without arousing suspicion.

But in his previous life, something went wrong during the enemy's operation. By some twist of fate, not only did they fail to kill Xie Lanshen, but they also woke him up.

Although the person woke up, they were left with serious health problems.

But once the person woke up, they couldn't continue their attack.

Therefore, it must have been during Xie Lanshen's physical examination that the enemy agents tampered with the procedure, deliberately concealing the root of the illness.

This explains why the last medical examination report that Shen Zhihuan saw showed such normal values ​​for all vital signs.

Everything is connected.

In his previous life, Xie Lanshen went to the battlefield with this medical report, completely unaware of the extent of his internal injuries, which is why...
