"How did you die?"

"How did you die?"

The two spoke in unison, were startled at the same time, looked at each other and smiled.

Shen Wanwan pointed at the wound on her body, "I was stabbed to death from behind. See? Right here, there's a big hole that went straight through my heart."

Pei Wanwan was stunned. This girl looked so fragile that she thought she was a coward, but she didn't expect that she was as brave as herself.

She nodded. "Yes, I saw it, but it's hard to tell unless you look closely. This wedding dress is too red. Don't wear it next time. I don't think it suits you."

Shen Wanwan was stunned for a moment. This girl was too direct in her words. However, although her words were harsh, they made sense. She really shouldn't have gotten married.

Shen Wanwan was the third child of Shen Zhongtian, the current Prime Minister of Nanyao State. She had been pampered at home until—

A year ago, at Shen Wanwan's coming-of-age ceremony, her sister Shen Wanshu, who had been missing for seven years, returned, and the ceremony turned into a large-scale family reunion ceremony.

The family cried so hard in front of so many guests that they even forgot to complete the next steps of the coming-of-age ceremony.

Shen Wanshu suddenly knelt down in front of Shen Wanwan. "Third sister, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so willful as to splash water on you and made you angry and push me into the river. I'm sorry. I really know I was wrong and I won't do that again. Will you forgive me, third sister?"

The scene was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone looked at Shen Wanshu with pity, but when they looked at Shen Wanwan, they felt indescribable disgust.

Someone whispered:

"She was only seven years old at the time. How could she be so cruel and vicious at such a young age, even to kill her own sister?"

"That's right, why wasn't she the one washed away by the water back then?"

……

Shen Wanwan was overjoyed at her sister's return the moment before, but the next moment she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, frozen unable to move.

She looked at Shen Wanshu in shock. She really couldn't understand why her sister had finally come back to reunite with her family, so she lied to her.

"No, that's not the case!"

The corners of Shen Wanwan's lips trembled. She wanted to explain, but no one was willing to listen to her.

The noise at the scene quickly drowned out her mosquito-like voice.

From that day on, Shen Wanwan's status in the family plummeted, and the days when she was the center of attention were gone forever.

The person who fainted from a heart attack at her wedding ceremony was none other than her own sister Shen Wanshu.

Lin Ziye left her and the stunned guests with a pale face, picked up Shen Wanshu and ran out of the Duke's Mansion in a panic to the clinic to find a doctor, but he forgot that Shen Wanwan was the doctor.

It should have been a happy and joyous day, but everyone was watching the joke, their mouths almost grinning from ear to ear, and only Shen Wanwan was silently grieving in her heart.

Pei Wanwan stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Shen Wanwan's eyes, "Wanwan?"

Shen Wanwan came back to her senses, "What about you? What's your name, and how did you die?"

Pei Wanwan looked unnatural. "My name is Pei Wanwan. If I tell you that I didn't know how I died, would you believe me?"

"The way you died sounds weird, but since you said it, I definitely believe it."

There is really no need to lie to Pia.

The two smiled at each other again. Although they had different surnames, they had the same name. Meeting was fate.

The two girls sat down next to each other in the open space between the two corpses. The scene was indescribably weird.

"Wanwan, this long night is too boring. Tell me about your wedding ceremony today."

Shen Wanwan lowered her eyes and thought for a moment before nodding, "Lin Ziye and I..."

When the two first met, Shen Wanwan was ten years old and Lin Ziye was fifteen years old. Five years later, the two could be considered childhood sweethearts.

However, when the two of them were getting married, Lin Ziye left her alone to face the guests and quickly left the scene with her younger sister in his arms.

This was unacceptable to Shen Wanwan. She ran away from the Duke's Mansion alone in a fit of anger, and never thought that anything would happen.

"I feel like I died unjustly."

Pei Wanwan sighed repeatedly, "This is probably what they often say in storybooks: fate, it can't be changed."

Shen Wanwan shook her head. She had already noticed the ambiguity between the two people. If she persisted, it could be changed.

"I thought about breaking off the engagement to let them be together, but he didn't want to let go. He said he only loved me and was only nice to that girl because she was my sister. Otherwise, he wouldn't have given her a second glance."

Not only that, he also raised three fingers and swore to the sky, promising that he would abide by etiquette and keep the appropriate distance from that person in the future.

Pei Wanwan sighed again, "Men's words are deceitful. You believed his lies, and that's why you are in this situation today."

Shen Wanwan nodded, "If I had known this, I should have insisted on following my heart."

"Fortunately, you haven't officially married yet, so you don't have to bear the identity of Lin Shizi's wife and become a ghost. Otherwise, it would be really unlucky."

Pei Wanwan blinked. "But Wanwan, are you sure that the one who suddenly returned to your home is your biological sister?"

"She and I are 50% similar, how could I be wrong? Everyone who has seen us says we are sisters. What's more, she has a token of identity on her."

"Then I don't understand. If she's my biological sister, why would she treat you like that? Not only did she steal your things, but she even stole your future brother-in-law. Her character isn't great. If I had a sister like that, I'd definitely give her a meal of bamboo shoots and braised meat to teach her a lesson."

"This is something I've never been able to understand. She was clearly playing around and accidentally fell into the water. I immediately jumped in to save her. Unfortunately, I was young at the time and couldn't swim. Not only did I fail to save her, I almost lost my own life."
