Chapter 1 Elop
"Rong'er, let's take a rest here. The people who are going to pick us up will be here soon!" Shen Wenyuan picked off a peach blossom and handed it to her.
Jiang Rong felt a piercing pain in his mind, countless memories surged up and finally calmed down.
She stared at the person in front of her, then looked around...
It was the height of spring, the peach blossoms were in full bloom, the breeze was just the right amount, and the affectionate flower-picking man stood opposite her.
This scene...
So familiar.
This was the scene when she eloped with Shen Wenyuan ten years ago...
Later, she always fantasized, if she hadn’t met the bandits that day, if Xie Lingxi hadn’t appeared…
Can they live happily ever after?
It was not until she died that she realized...
She has lived a lie her whole life.
Ridiculous and hateful.
Unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes again after death, she returned to ten years ago.
"The bandits you arranged are indeed approaching." Jiang Rong stared at him, his thin lips curled up in self-mockery.
Shen Wenyuan's expression changed instantly. How did she know that he had hired bandits?
"I'm slapping you on behalf of my father!" Jiang Rong raised his hand and swung his arm, slapping Shen Wenyuan hard on the face:
"He adopted a white-eyed wolf!"
Jiang Rong's father was a close friend of Shen Wenyuan's father. When Shen's father offended the emperor, his family property was confiscated and he was exiled, and no one dared to help the Shen family.
Only Father Jiang was upright and loyal. When Shen's father entrusted his son to him before he left, Jiang adopted Shen Wenyuan, arranged a marriage with his newborn daughter, and raised Shen Wenyuan as his own son.
Countless people gossiped behind her back, saying that the daughter of a wealthy family was married to the son of a criminal.
But Jiang Rong never minded his identity. They were childhood sweethearts, and Shen Wenyuan once said that he only loved her in this life.
"I'm slapping you on behalf of your father!" Before Shen Wenyuan could react, Jiang Rong slapped him on the other side of his face again:
"Uncle Shen has been loyal and upright all his life. He is unlucky to have a son like you."
Half a month ago, the emperor ordered the recall of Shen's father and conferred him the title of Taifu.
Shen Wenyuan immediately felt that he, as the son of the great tutor, was no longer the same as before. How could Jiang Rong, an orphan from a ruined earl's house, be worthy of being his wife?
But the Jiang family helped him in his time of need and raised him for fifteen years. He wanted to break off the engagement, but was afraid that Shen's father would not agree. So he bribed the bandits to kidnap Jiang Rong and destroy her innocence.
In this way, he could get rid of Jiang Rong legitimately.
But before he could take any action, Jiang Rong got into big trouble.
The eldest son of the Northern Prince's Mansion, the most powerful family in Daxia, fell in love with Jiang Rong at first sight and forced her to marry him by using the Queen Mother's decree.
Shen Wenyuan should have clapped his hands and got rid of a trouble. But someone didn't want Jiang Rong to marry into the Northern Prince's Mansion, so he paid a high price to ruin the marriage.
Shen Wenyuan then coaxed Jiang Rong to elope, while arranging for bandits to kill them along the way.
He abandoned her after having sex with her, and refused to let Jiang Rong have a good home.
Extremely vicious.
"Shen Wenyuan, I must dig out your heart and take a look. Is your heart black?" Jiang Rong's eyes were fierce.
"You bitch, how dare you hit me!" Shen Wenyuan came to his senses and was furious.
Jiang Rong was about to be killed by the bandits, so he didn't need to pretend anymore and reached out to grab Jiang Rong's collar...
But just as he made a move, Jiang Rong raised his leg and kicked him hard in the abdomen, knocking him to the ground.
Another stomp on his lower abdomen. The move was clean and sharp, obviously practiced.
"Ah!" Shen Wenyuan screamed in pain and couldn't stand up.
He had never expected that Jiang Rong could actually do this?
At this time in her previous life, Jiang Rong was indeed a weak lady who could not take care of herself. This was something someone taught her during the ten years she spent in the Northern Prince's Palace.
"Just wait for me!" Shen Wenyuan threatened fiercely.
Jiang Rong sneered and kicked Shen Wenyuan like a sandbag again and again, kicking him until he was bleeding profusely and couldn't even scream.
The sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance, and a group of masked bandits came rushing over.
A glimmer of hope ignited in Shen Wenyuan's eyes, "Jiang Rong, you are dead..."
The girl who was kicking him for fun remained calm and fearless.
She knew the bandits would show up soon. But while Shen Wenyuan was waiting for the bandits, she was also waiting for someone.
Jiang Rong looked over and saw a familiar figure appear in the peach forest in the distance.
The young man rides a white horse, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and is unrestrained and free, like a jade tree standing in the wind.
The bright red wedding suit made him look even more unique and stunning, like no other in the world.
The Prince of the Northern King, Xie Lingxi.
There are bandits in front and Xie Lingxi behind.
In her previous life, Jiang Rong hated him so much that she even fled towards the bandits, preferring to die in their hands rather than be caught by him...
And now...
Jiang Rong looked panicked and frightened, and stumbled towards him, holding up her skirt.
