King Yama could tell what she was thinking just by looking at her expression, and he roared angrily, "Didn't you see? This book used to be shining with gold, but now it's all turned gray!"
The loud noise startled Shen Jiaojiao. She covered her ears and waited for the sound to stop before yelling at the King of Hell, "Why are you yelling so loudly? I can hear you! What are you trying to say?"
When he yelled at someone, he didn't realize how loud it was until Shen Jiaojiao yelled back at him at the same louder volume.
Their eyes met, and both were simultaneously defeated.
Of course, Yama would not admit defeat; he was of noble status and would not stoop to the level of a child.
Shen Jiaojiao spoke first: "Speak! What did you do!"
Yama's temples throbbed, and he glared at her.
I didn't do it this time!
It was clearly you who did it!
My heart is screaming wildly.
He kept his face expressionless, looked straight at her, and said calmly, "You've scattered the golden light on this book! This is the fortune that sustains the world."
Shen Jiaojiao thought about the few blows she had just received. Could it be such a coincidence?
You've already run out of energy with so little strength?
Look at his eyes, he's clearly saying it's all your fault!
Shen Jiaojiao didn't believe it. How much strength could a weak woman like me have?
Since it's none of my business, she said in a nonchalant tone, "Oh!"
The King of Hell almost lost his composure!
Such a big thing and you just dismiss it with a 'oh'? That's clearly an attempt to shirk responsibility!
snort!
I knew it! No woman is any good. She even hit me just now!
The King of Hell continued to stare intently, this time with a hint of anger on his face: "That's right! You've beaten them all up, you've gotten yourself into trouble!"
Shen Jiaojiao resolutely denied it, believing that the more she said, the more mistakes she would make, and the less mistakes she would make: "Oh!"
How can there be such a heartless woman? To hell with being a great philanthropist for nine lifetimes! This dead woman is only good-looking; she's not kind at all in her words and deeds!
The King of Hell's expression was starting to spiral out of control: "You've completely disrupted the world's fortune in the book. Now, besides living your own life, you'll have to maintain the world and collect its fortune! Otherwise, you won't have a good time inside! Hmph!!"
Now that she was involved, Shen Jiaojiao's attitude changed, and she softened: "What's going on?"
At this moment, Shen Jiaojiao was a little frightened. How could it be so easily broken apart?
Could it be fake?
What have I gained or what ability do I possess?
Yama was watching him intently, and then he noticed that the golden light that had been scattered earlier was slowly gathering around Shen Jiaojiao, gradually merging with the golden light behind her.
He opened his eyes wide, and wow!
Who is this person?! They beat me up for nothing and then sucked all my luck away! Don't I have any dignity?
This time, Shen Jiaojiao absolutely has to go!
Shen Jiaojiao had no idea what was going on, only to see the King of Hell's face growing darker and darker.
After a second of hesitation, he asked, "Um, should I leave now???"
The King of Hell gritted his teeth and said, "Remember this: when you get there, do your best to do good deeds and ensure that the country is prosperous and the people are strong. Those bad things that wouldn't have happened before, I can't guarantee this time either. Now that you are possessed by good fortune, you must do more good deeds and slowly give back your good fortune to the world. Do you understand? Live well and whatever you do, don't die!"
Of course I will live well!
Yama opened the gray book, and with a flick of his sleeve, Shen Jiaojiao was sent into the world within it.
When she opened her eyes again, she combined her memories and understood the current timeline.
Today is only the first day since the imperial edict was issued. I slept for half the day, and it's already evening.
Madam Wang and General Shen stayed by her bedside. When they saw her awake, Madam Wang finally felt relieved.
During the time Jiaojiao was in a coma, she thought a lot. Nothing was more important than her child's life. If she didn't want to, she would donate all her family property and take her child back to her hometown.
Shen Wanshan couldn't express himself, but his eyes were full of worry as he looked at her.
Shen Jiaojiao felt much better after waking up, but she was a little hungry. She wanted to fill her stomach first: "Mom! I'm hungry!"
Madam Wang hurriedly called out, "Dongmei, quickly bring the food, Miss is hungry!"
Dongmei bowed and immediately went out to bring over the porridge.
The doctor said she needs to eat a light diet now, and the kitchen always has easy-to-prepare food on hand. As soon as you give the order, it will be delivered quickly.
Shen Jiaojiao ate the porridge that Wang Shi fed her with big mouthfuls, feeling a warmth in her heart. It felt so good to have her mother's love again.
After finishing a bowl of porridge, she felt her body regain strength. Looking at Wang's conflicted expression, she knew what she was going to say next; she had read the script.
Sure enough, Madam Wang said the same thing: "Jiaojiao, if you don't want to get married, your father and I will find a way. Please don't do anything rash!"
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. She was the only daughter in her family, so why should she be married off to the short-lived crown prince?
Afraid that her mother would overthink it, Shen Jiaojiao quickly said, "Mother! I'll marry him!"
Wang was still racking her brains thinking about how to make arrangements in the countryside when she heard this answer. Did she hear me right?
She looked uncertainly at the person on the bed. His face was only slightly pale, much better than before, and he showed no reluctance.
She continued, "Jiaojiao, did you just say you were willing?"
Shen Jiaojiao looked at the two of them and said very seriously, "Father, Mother, you heard me right. I said I am willing to marry the Crown Prince. Actually, it's good that he died young. I don't have to have children. After he dies, I can live a life of luxury and happiness in the mansion!"
When Wang heard what she said, she couldn't hold back anymore. What kind of day is this?
How can she still laugh!
She had no other requests, she just wanted her precious child to live an ordinary life. Why is God so cruel?
As she thought about it, she started to cry.
Shen Wanshan held his wife, unsure how to speak, feeling both angry and aggrieved.
Shen Jiaojiao didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only hold her hand and stay by her side silently.
Chu Tianling, in the Crown Prince's residence, lay on the bed, expressionless and utterly unmoved.
The servant kneeling below relayed the message: "Your Highness, an imperial decree has just arrived from the palace, bestowing a marriage upon you. The bride is Shen Jiaojiao, the only daughter of General Shen."
The servant glanced up furtively and continued, "The wedding is in three days!"
"Go down!"
Chu Tianling closed his eyes. This scene had been repeated 18 times already, and he was used to it.
He always dies three days later, without exception. He has tried every possible way to die, and now he has given up.
Anyway, he knew that Shen Jiaojiao would run away the next day, and her target was this year's top scorer named Wang Haotian.
Whatever!
I've never seen it before.
She had no chance of surviving anyway, so she could do whatever she wanted and just slowly get through her last three days.
