Yu Yao sat in the passenger seat, Sun Yu sat in the back shed, and the driver was Xiao Zhang, a driver from the logistics department who was specifically assigned to drive for the leaders.
"Xiao Zhang, thank you for your help again this time," Yu Yao said with a smile.
Xiao Zhang chuckled on his simple, dark face: "Sister-in-law, you're too kind. The organization trusts me; this is what I should do."
"Sister-in-law, the road ahead is relatively flat. You can close your eyes and rest for a while. I will make sure you and Comrade Sun get there safely."
Not far from the car window is the only paved road on the entire island, which is the main road used by the military and state-owned factories for daily transportation.
It is indeed very flat and wide.
Yu Yao did not refuse. Pregnant women are prone to drowsiness, and she needed to ensure she was in good condition when she arrived at the fishing company. It would be good for her to rest and recharge now.
"Alright, Comrade Zhang, call me when we get to the fishery company."
The car drove on the wide, flat dirt road, leaving the trees on both sides behind, and the truck was steady and stable.
While passing by a production team, a woman dressed in blue suddenly darted out from a side path.
The truck braked suddenly the next second, stopping just one meter away from the woman.
The woman was so frightened by the truck that she fell to the ground.
Yu Yao woke up from her nap and saw a person lying on the road in front of the truck. She thought she had hit someone and her face turned pale.
Xiao Zhang quickly explained, "Sister-in-law, she suddenly rushed out; we didn't bump into her."
Yu Yao breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's go down and take a look."
Sun Yu was startled in the back. As soon as the car stopped, she jumped out and ran to the front. "Yu Yao, Comrade Zhang, what happened?"
"I'm fine."
Yu Yao got out of the car with Sun Yu's help and went with Xiao Zhang to check on the woman's condition.
Fearing that the woman might be suspicious, Xiao Zhang told Yu Yao and Sun Yu to step back while he went forward to check on her.
"Comrade, are you alright?" Xiao Zhang helped the unconscious woman up and gently patted her face.
When they saw her face clearly, Yu Yao and Sun Yu were both stunned.
Sun Yu whispered, "Yu Yao, doesn't this look like your niece-in-law?"
Yu Yao looked at Mu Hehe, her brows furrowed. "It really is her."
People from nearby production teams gathered around when they heard the commotion. They were terrified by what had just happened. Luckily, no one was hurt; otherwise, it would have been a real disaster for both of them.
"That daughter-in-law of the Lu family has lost her mind again."
"He must have had another attack just now. It was terrifying; he almost bumped into something."
Yu Yao approached a kind-hearted woman and asked, "Fellow villager, could you please help me call her family?"
"Someone has already gone over and shouted."
Seeing that she was heavily pregnant, the older woman was worried that she would be frightened, so she comforted her, "Comrade, don't worry, we all saw what happened just now. You didn't bump into her. She just suddenly appeared on her own."
When the surrounding production teams saw Xiao Zhang's military uniform and the green Liberation brand truck, they knew that he was a member of the People's Liberation Army. They all patted their chests and assured them not to worry, saying they would testify for them.
Yu Yao thanked them for their kindness and turned her gaze back to Mu Hehe's face.
By this time, the other person had already woken up.
"Comrade Zhang, is she alright?"
Xiao Zhang had learned some basic first aid skills, so he thought, "He should be fine. He was probably just startled."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Hehe suddenly stood up, rushed to Yu Yao, and grinned foolishly at her.
"You, even if you are, I am the future wife of the richest man. You country bumpkin, hurry up and send me to Shanghai. I have plenty of money."
Sun Yu instinctively shielded Yu Yao behind her like a mother hen protecting her chicks.
Yu Yao looked at Mu Hehe, whose mind was far from clear, and asked, "You don't recognize me?"
"You look somewhat familiar." Mu Hehe stared at her for a while, then raised her chin high and said contemptuously, "Aren't you our family's maid, Aunt Wang?"
"My husband will be back from work soon. What are you standing there for? Get to the kitchen and cook! Or I'll dock your pay."
“Yu Yao is already one, now I am the mistress of this house, with money, husband, and children,” Mu Hehe said with a smug smile, looking around, “and this big villa, it’s all mine.”
Those around them whispered amongst themselves upon hearing this.
"They've been poisoned by the weeds of capitalism and are even using servants now."
"Exactly, the way he acts like a tyrant is just like the landlords in my family."
Yu Yao seemed to be deep in thought; Mu Hehe had indeed been reborn.
She's currently confused her past life with this one.
Mu Hehe was completely unaware of her surroundings. Seeing so many people around her, she hugged her arms, her eyes filled with terror.
"What are you doing? Don't come any closer! Ah!"
"Yu Yao, you bitch, it's all your fault, it's all your fault! I want revenge, revenge! Yes, revenge!"
Mu Hehe glared fiercely at Yu Yao, as if she recognized her again, and raised her hand to slap Yu Yao.
Seeing this, Sun Yu and Xiao Zhang were about to make a move, but before they could, Mu Hehe was grabbed by a man who rushed in from the crowd.
Looking at Mu Hehe like this, Lu Yunqi's eyes were full of disgust. He roughly grabbed her arm and dragged her home, saying, "Come on, come back with me."
Mu Hehe struggled, shouting that she wouldn't go back, and kept slapping and punching Lu Yunqi.
With a loud slap, Lu Yunqi received a resounding slap across the face. His face turned so ugly he looked like he wanted to devour someone. He retaliated with a slap, making Mu Hehe's mouth bleed.
"Mu Hehe, haven't you made enough of a scene?"
He now deeply regrets abandoning his beloved wife and mother, Yu Yao, for the sake of such a woman.
After being slapped, Mu Hehe regained some of her senses.
The disgust, regret, and impatience in Lu Yunqi's eyes stung her.
She glanced at Yu Yao, who was being protected behind her, and a strange smile appeared on her face. "Lu Yunqi, are you regretting it? Regret breaking off the engagement to marry me?"
Lu Yunqi didn't want to answer the question. "What exactly do you want? Have you made enough of a scene? If you have, come back with me."
Mu Hehe, however, was relentless, laughing loudly, "Hahahaha, you regret it, you regret it."
"So what if I regret it? How could I leave such a good person like her and marry a woman like you? If you're not satisfied, you can get a divorce."
As she laughed, tears welled up in Mu Hehe's eyes, and she said to herself:
"It's a pity that they don't even want you. You can only rot in the mud with me. You owe me all of this." The hatred in Mu Hehe's eyes was unforgettable.
Lu Yunqi avoided her gaze and pulled her hand, leading her back.
This time, Mu Hehe did not resist, letting Lu Yunqi drag her along. She turned her head and stared intently at Yu Yao.
"Yu Yao, are you feeling smug? Do you think you've won? Wrong, I'm the ultimate winner."
Upon hearing the name "Yu Yao," Lu Yunqi turned around abruptly, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face when he saw Yu Yao.
Did she hear what I just said?
