Chapter 255 Episode 19

"Hmph, so that's why you were so proactive. Turns out there was a trap waiting for me to fall into."

"I'm looking for a virtuous wife. I don't need to jeopardize my future for you!"

"This marriage can't happen, and I can't help you with your job either. Don't come looking for me again."

After getting close to this deputy battalion commander, Xu Shanshan wanted him to help her find a job, otherwise it would be inconvenient for her to stay in Beijing.

But the other party said that he couldn't arrange work for someone who wasn't a family member.

Xu Shanshan clearly remembered that in her previous life, Wen Changyu arranged their work without any excuses and completed it quickly.

But at this moment, she couldn't bring up Wen Changyu, and she knew that he was afraid of being taken advantage of by her, so he used this excuse to brush her off.

But after thinking it over, she had no choice but to accept it.

After all, even her supposedly invincible beauty wasn't entirely invincible during the days she spent staking out the guesthouse.

She wanted to find a soldier who was the right age, held a high position, and was single, but such men were extremely rare.

People like Wen Changyu, who hold high positions, are generally older and already have wives.

They are of similar age and generally hold low-ranking positions.

The deputy battalion commander in front of us is already considered high-ranking.

To her surprise, even though she reluctantly accepted it, the other party became unwilling after learning that she was from a capitalist family.

Xu Shanshan was filled with shame and indignation, "Then... what have we been doing all this time?"

The other person was a decent person. After thinking for a moment, he took out a wrapped handkerchief from his pocket and said, "This is my compensation to you, but... I really can't marry you. I can't... I can't ruin everything I've worked so hard for, disregarding myself and my family, all for you."

The other person probably genuinely likes her, and their words implied a desire for her to understand.

Xu Shanshan couldn't understand it at all. All she knew was that Wen Changyu had married her very decisively back then, and it hadn't affected him much afterwards.

Xu Shanshan angrily took the item and cursed, "You're a coward."

The deputy battalion commander looked at his empty hands and heard the word "coward," and thought it would be better not to give it to him at all.

Xu Shanshan had completely lost her protection in Beijing and could not stay there for long. She wanted to see Wen Changyu one more time, but Wen Changyu had never seen her.

She knew that Wen Changyu hated her, so in the end she could only give up!

But when she went to see Wen Yujiao, she looked Wen Yujiao up and down, still wearing cloth shoes, blue cloth trousers, and a floral-sleeved shirt. "I heard your father is a military commander?"

She obtained all this information from the deputy battalion commander.

Wen Yujiao ignored her, just looked at her curiously, wondering why she had come to her.

Wen Yujiao remained silent, her gaze unwavering, which left Xu Shanshan feeling somewhat defeated.

Then she stared at a young face and spoke in an old man's tone, "Young lady, marrying Wen Changyu is not a good choice for you. You will not be happy with him."

Wen Yujiao frowned slightly.

Seeing that her words had worked, Xu Shanshan continued, "He doesn't like you!"

Wen Yujiao then spoke, "Is it you?"

Xu Shanshan looked surprised. "How did you know?"

Wen Yujiao: I don't know, I just can't stand your frivolous talk.

"I don't know, but isn't that what you meant?"

Upon hearing Wen Yujiao's words, Xu Shanshan's expression turned somewhat unpleasant. "What do you mean by that?"

Wen Yujiao shrugged. "What do you mean? What do I mean?"

"Hmph, you're like a dog biting Lü Dongbin—you don't appreciate a kind heart. I'm giving you well-intentioned advice; take it or leave it. If you end up unhappy, don't blame me for not warning you!"

Wen Yujiao immediately objected, "Shut up! What are you up to with your mouth full of curses?"

Xu Shanshan: "??"

Wen Yujiao was not someone to be easily manipulated. "Kindness?"

"You're so kind-hearted, why don't you talk to yourself?"

“I think someone like you,” Wen Yujiao looked her up and down and shook her head, “won’t have a good ending.”

These words were a direct hit to Xu Shanshan's weakness: "Even if he's not good, he's still better than you. Do you think Wen Changyu will forget me, forget those three children..."

Xu Shanshan was furious and blurted it out.

Wen Yujiao focused on the key question: "Three children?"

Xu Shanshan opened her mouth, unsure how to tell people about her rebirth, afraid of being locked up as a lunatic.

Looking at Wen Yujiao with her two little braids, Xu Shanshan couldn't help but ask, "Would you believe me if I told you we were husband and wife in our past life?"

Wen Yujiao: Any information?

Her eyes darted around, but she didn't say anything.

Seeing her stunned expression, Xu Shanshan continued to irritate her, "Whether you believe it or not, in my past life, he and I were husband and wife. He loved me very much and insisted on marrying no one else. We had three children..."

"You speak so eloquently, yet he avoids you like the plague his entire life. Why?"

Wen Yujiao had already realized that this person was reborn.

Of course, Wen Yujiao was also a time traveler.

Before transmigrating, Wen Yujiao was an ordinary person. After transmigrating, she didn't plan to be anything extraordinary. She just wanted to live her life naturally, since she didn't have any special abilities.

I just didn't expect...

They also encountered what is called rebirth.

She looked at Xu Shanshan, who was quite pretty. Could she be some kind of female protagonist in a rebirth novel?

She treated the male lead badly in her past life, but after being reborn, she worked hard to change herself, moved him, and the two eventually lived happily ever after, having a whole bunch of kids...

Wen Yujiao: No, she doesn't want to be part of someone's play!

Wen Yujiao's question left Xu Shanshan speechless, but Wen Yujiao continued her attack, "Could it be that you cheated on someone and the child isn't their biological child?"

Xu Shanshan immediately rebuked, "Shut up! How could you say something so shameless?"

Wen Yujiao laughed, "You can do it, but I can't say it?"

"When did I do it?"

"You just said that yourself!"

"Otherwise, why wouldn't he want you?"

Xu Shanshan was such a proud person, how could she tolerate being looked down upon by a plainly dressed girl? So she actually raised her hand to slap Wen Yujiao.

Wen Yujiao was no weak woman who couldn't even kill a chicken. She raised her hand, grabbed the wrist that was swinging at her, and with a forceful movement, threw the person to the ground.

She fell to the ground, her palm scraped, the pain stimulating Xu Shanshan's nerves. She got up and started fighting with Wen Yujiao.

She was naturally no match for Wen Yujiao in a physical fight, but she had someone report the matter to Wen Changyu.

Wen Changyu arrived quickly.

Wen Yujiao and Xu Shanshan sat separately, creating a stark contrast between them.

Wen Yujiao's hair was only slightly disheveled.

Xu Shanshan was in a terrible state. Not only were her pretty little dress covered in mud stains, but her long, braided black hair was also a mess, and her arms and hands were bruised.

Her eyes welled up with tears the moment she saw Wen Changyu.

But she stubbornly turned her head away.

Of course, Wen Changyu was also looking at her.

Seeing this, Wen Yujiao prepared to get up and leave.

Of course, she immediately got up.

Three-legged toads are hard to find, but two-legged men are easy to find.

Just as she stood up, Wen Changyu walked over to her and asked, "Are you alright?"

Wen Changyu raised his hand, but lowered it again because there were people around.
