You're the one who wants to marry a mistress, and I'm marrying someone else, yet you still

"Why do you think that is, Third Brother?"

Xie Wanru smiled and gestured for everyone around her to step back. Regardless of Xie Yanting's guess, she had a premonition that she couldn't hide it any longer.

She didn't know if her third brother could accept it, nor did she know what the consequences would be if she told him. But she had been holding on to this for too long, and she wanted to tell him the secret in her heart.

"I have no idea……"

Xie Yanting lowered his eyes, not daring to meet Xie Wanru's gaze. "But I know you are Wanwan, it's just that you know too much."

"Yes, indeed."

Xie Wanru nodded, silently praying that she wouldn't frighten her third brother.

She took a deep breath and said, "I am indeed Xie Wanru, but I am not your sister who is only twenty years old. I am your sister who is already thirty years old, Third Brother. If I said that I came back from the future, would you believe me?"

Xie Wanru walked to Xie Yanting's side and looked up at him very seriously, but her words startled Xie Yanting so much that his heart skipped a beat.

“I not only know that the Simons bring leaves, but I also know that the Northern Barbarians have amassed a large army in the heart of their grasslands. They will not stop marching south, but you have repelled them time and time again, protecting the territory of our Great Zhou.”

Xie Wanru reached out and gently took Xie Yanting's finger, just like she always did before, holding Xie Yanting's hand when going out to play.

She was pampered by her older brothers from a young age and lived a carefree life.

"You...you really came back from the future? Now that you're back, what will happen to your future self?"

Xie Yanting grasped Xie Wanru's shoulders. The touch was so real that he was certain the woman in front of him was his sister.

"Third Brother, my future self is already dead, so don't worry."

Xie Wanru gave a bitter smile.

"What...who is that...?"

Xie Yanting wanted to ask who killed her, but the words wouldn't come out.

How could he let Wanwan die? How could he? He would never let anyone hurt Wanwan. But Shen Nian'an did hurt Wanwan.

"It's Shen Yanzhi, but not entirely because of him. He and Shen Nian'an hate our Xie family because everyone says that all their achievements were given to them by our Xie family. Isn't that outrageous? Hehe."

Xie Wanru pulled Xie Yanting to sit on the steps, where they sat in a row.

“In my past life, I didn’t divorce Shen Nian’an. I stayed with the Shen family. Shen Cong’an never woke up. He was drugged by Shen Nian’an. After I died, the Shen family fell into ruin, and he was saved by the Crown Prince’s posthumous son. Yes, in my past life, the Crown Prince had already been framed by Xiao Yan and demoted to a commoner at this time, and died in despair. When Xiao Yan ascended the throne, he listened to Shen Nian’an and his son and attacked our Xie family, accusing us of treason. Our entire Xie family died. Heh heh.”

Whenever she thinks of the fate of her family in her past life, Xie Wanru can't help but burst into tears.

"My sister-in-law's first pregnancy was twins, a boy and a girl. You and your second brother..."

Xie Wanru told Xie Yanting about some things from her past life, in such detail that Xie Yanting had no choice but to believe her.

“I was killed by Shen Yanzhi himself. The child of the child I raised with my own hands killed me in the end.”

Xie Wanru's emotions calmed down towards the end.

"I'm going to kill him right now! I'm going to kill them all!"

Xie Yanting suddenly stood up. How could he let his sister be bullied for so long without knowing it? He was not worthy to be Wanwan's third brother!

Xie Wanru immediately stood up and pulled him back, "Third Brother! Not now. If you kill him now, you'll be a murderer! You can't! It's not worth getting your hands dirty for someone like him."

"Wanwan, I will never let anything happen to you again. A murderer is a murderer, but I will not give him another chance to hurt you."

Xie Yanting still looked indignant. He was calm about other things, but he couldn't remain calm about Wanwan's matter.

"it is good."

Xie Wanru unexpectedly let go of her hand. "Third brother, go ahead. Kill the person and then go to jail. From now on, I will never have a third brother again. There is even a possibility that people will find out that I came back from the future and be treated as a monster."

She couldn't persuade him, so she stopped trying.

Xie Yanting calmed down instead. Indeed, with his skills, killing Shen Yanzhi and Shen Nian'an would have been easy, but what was his motive?

If someone digs deeper, it will still implicate Wanwan.

This isn't as simple as Wanwan wanting a divorce and him setting fire to vent his anger.

When someone dies, the authorities will definitely investigate thoroughly.

Xie Yanting calmed down and sat back down next to Xie Wanru.

"Wanwan, does it hurt?"

Xie Yanting carefully tried to hug Xie Wanru, but then felt that they were too old for each other to hug, so he just patted her on the shoulder lightly, so lightly that Xie Wanru almost didn't feel it.

"They killed you, you must have suffered a lot."

Xie Wanru's eyes immediately welled up with tears when she heard the question, "Does it hurt?"

“It hurts, how could it not hurt? I watched helplessly as you were falsely accused and killed as rebels. The entire Xie family was wiped out. I still remember that despair and pain clearly.”

Xie Wanru's voice trembled slightly, tears welled up in her eyes, and then fell silently.

“But Third Brother, I can’t let hatred blind me and act rashly. There’s no evidence for what happened ten years later. If I want Shen Yanzhi and Shen Nian’an to pay the price they deserve, I can’t take the right path. I won’t let them die easily either. I want to watch the Shen family decline and decay step by step…”

Xie Wanru took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. Wanwan's words tonight had surprised him greatly.

No wonder Wanwan hates the Shen family, but treats Shen Cong'an differently.

Xie Wanru turned to look at Xie Yanting, her eyes glistening with tears, just like the shining stars in the sky.

She wiped away her tears, revealed a bright smile, and leaned on Xie Yanting's shoulder: "Third Brother, I believe in you, and I believe in myself that I can take revenge and make them wish they were dead. Xiao Yan is also one of the executioners, and I won't let him get away with it either. The Great Zhou Dynasty was almost destroyed in his hands."

Seeing Xie Wanru's determined gaze, Xie Yanting felt slightly relieved; his sister was indeed resolute.

He put his arm around Xie Wanru's shoulder, and the two leaned against each other. "Wanwan, you've worked so hard. I won't let any of those who hurt you get away with it. From now on, your third brother will always be by your side. No matter what difficulties you face, your third brother will always be there for you. You don't need to worry or be afraid anymore."

The road ahead is still long, but at this moment, Xie Wanru is no longer afraid.

"Yes, I know. I'm not alone anymore, my third brother is back."

Xie Wanru sniffed. If she kept crying, she would become a big-eyed girl tomorrow.

At this moment, Xie Yanting's tears also slid down one by one.
