Quick transmigration, she doesn't love anyone!

The day before Shi An left, he told Shi Kang to work hard and then took Du Xiang to town.

Du Xiang's statement that she didn't lack anything wasn't exactly a refusal, but she did have something she wanted.

Seeing that Shi An had bought a few useless things, he was touched.

She pointed to the pastries not far away, her mouth watering.

"Just a little bit is fine, I want to try it."

He gestured with his hand as he spoke, indicating that it really was just a tiny bit.

Shi An chuckled and watched him turn to buy something, while Du Xiang went into the dilapidated recycling shop next door.

Shi An glanced at her trail and let her wander off.

The room was filled with all sorts of broken and tattered things. Du Xiang wandered around on her own, noticing a pile of old books in the corner and a person next to them looking through them, but she paid no attention and went to find what she wanted.

She had never actually gone to school, but in her past life she had seen a lot of things while she was with Yu Minglang. Later, he became a university lecturer, and because she cared about her image, she also learned those literary things.

Looking back now, I vaguely feel that she was somehow better than her older sister.

In her past life, she fought for life and for a good life.

Du Xiang had asked herself many times, what was wrong with her scheming and striving?

Every answer was correct.

But then, suddenly, I realized that one of my answers was wrong.

She was indeed wrong. Her mistake was that she was also blinded by the world's great deception, unable to see the truth, and placed all her hopes for life on others.

Her older sister hoped that having a child would make things better, and she hoped that discipline would make Minglang work hard to give her a better life.

Du Xiang knew that the reasons for her resentment before her death were many; she was unwilling and resentful.

But there's also a hint of curiosity: if she had seen clearly from the beginning—not the future, but the truth and the trap—how ​​far could she have gone?

If she could do it all over again, she would know some future trends and have a natural advantage. She struggled with whether to use those advantages to accumulate funds so that she could finally live the good life she had always dreamed of.

But she was unwilling to accept it. She wanted to know how far she could go as Du Xiang, who couldn't take advantage of time. She wanted to give it a try.

Du Xiang's life motto has always been driven by self-interest, but this time, she gave up those tangible benefits.

Whether she's foolish or stubborn, she has that stubborn streak, and if she doesn't fight back, she'll still be resentful even if she dies a second time.

I wonder if there is anyone in this world who has had such a magical opportunity as her, and I wonder what path that person will take.

Looking at the worn-out books under her, Du Xiang brushed off the dust and chuckled softly.

"Wish us good luck."

They are indeed covered in dust, but what about her? I don't know.

I haven't tried it yet, but I hope she has some talent for learning. If not, it's okay. Once she's made up her mind, she'll stick to it no matter what.

Success means going down in history; failure means losing...

So be it, you've got a chance, why not gamble?

I rummaged through a pile of books and found everything I wanted, a whole stack of them. But these days, books are the cheapest thing, and these things are discarded as if they were sinful.

Du Xiang picked up the book and looked up to see the other person who had just been flipping through it. At that moment, she clearly saw who that person was.

He saw her clearly and was stunned for a moment.

Du Xiang lowered her head, trying to walk around it.

Yu Minglang didn't say anything, but walked straight over and took the things from her hands, since the stack was quite heavy.

Du Xiang wanted to take it back, but Yu Minglang didn't give her the chance.

The two people in the corner faced off for a moment.

Yu Minglang had inquired and knew that Du Xiang had not married into a good family. He had been trying to find an opportunity to see her, but he could never run into her.

Du Xiang seems to be doing well now.

Yu Minglang remained silent, while Du Xiang, wanting to leave, moved her lips.

He's outside.

The meaning of who he was referring to was quite clear. Yu Minglang had never met the person Du Xiang married, but he couldn't help asking:

"Is he... good to you?"

Du Xiang nodded.

Yu Minglang felt a bitter taste in his mouth, opened his mouth, and changed the subject.

Do you want all these books?

Du Xiang nodded, wanting to take it back.

"I'll take it out for you." Yu Minglang carried the things to the store entrance by himself. These kinds of things are now sold by weight.

Du Xiang followed behind him, and as soon as she went out, she saw that Shi An had already arrived.

There was Yu Minglang and Shi An. Although she and Yu Minglang weren't really together now, the sight of these two standing together was quite inexplicable.

She diligently played the role of a quail, while Shi An was somewhat surprised to see that she had bought so many books.

He glanced around the shop, his gaze passing over Yu Minglang next to Du Xiang without lingering.

"Is there anything else you need?"

Upon hearing this, Du Xiang looked at the list and said that was all for now, then shook her head.

"Nothing."

Shi An handed the pastries to Du Xiang, then picked up the book and weighed it in his hand. It wasn't heavy at all; it was quite easy for him.

He carried the book in one hand and held Du Xiang's hand with the other as they left the shop.

Yu Minglang stared blankly at the two figures for a long time, suppressing the bitterness in his heart.

Du Xiang wasn't particularly interested in anything else after coming out, but Shi An was worried that she might be missing something.

Seeing Du Xiang tasting the pastry, he reached out and wiped away the crumbs.

Du Xiang wasn't satisfied with the pastry; it was too sweet.

"Luckily I was smart enough to let you buy less."

Shi An found her proud boasting amusing, but also quite agreeable.

"Ah."

He responded by casually glancing up at the screen.

Shi An noticed that the person in the bookstore was staying at a distance that was neither too close nor too far from them.

The man looked at Du Xiang with a strange expression, but Shi An trusted Du Xiang, though he was still somewhat worried.

"Do you know the person who helped you move your books?"

Du Xiang felt no psychological pressure whatsoever.

"Yes, the educated youth from our village."

So what if we've talked about it? That's all in the past. We've already broken up in this life, and there's no intention of getting back together for now.

If anyone feels guilty, it should be Minglang.

Of course, she has no guilt. She won over these people with her own abilities, and she also won them over with her own abilities. It would be hypocritical for her to talk about feeling guilty.

Aren't they happy together?

She didn't pester or interfere with their lives, neither did Yu Minglang, and now she does too. When they talked, she genuinely offered emotional comfort to everyone.

As long as they can still be of some help to her, she won't easily abandon them for the time being.

Hearing Du Xiang's words, Shi An felt a headache coming on when he saw her innocent and unguarded appearance.

But in the end, nothing was said.

But when Du Xiang wasn't looking, she turned around and gave Yu Minglang a warning look.

Yu Minglang met his gaze calmly, without flinching or panicking, as if it were a completely coincidental encounter. His calm demeanor made it seem as if Shi An was being unreasonable.

But Shi An knew very well that his intentions were not pure.

Fortunately, Minglang was sensible and didn't follow any further.

However, when Du Xiang and Shi An returned home, they were met with Shi Kang's resentful gaze.

One reason was that the old man and woman gave Du Xiang too much work, but the main reason was that he couldn't control Shi Dabao and Shi Xiaobao at all.

He hated Du Xiang, that venomous woman, but he needed her so much.

In this family, he and his eldest brother used to have the worst social standing. To be precise, the eldest brother was at the bottom, contributing money and effort but still being disliked.

He's a bit smarter; he can get by by cheating and being cunning, and at most he'll get scolded. Occasionally his parents will give him a beating, but it's still a good deal.

But now, Shi Kang's not-so-bright mind keenly realized that things had changed in this family.

Of course, the situation still hadn't changed into the hands of his older brother, who was being manipulated at will.

Shi Kang's expression changed, and he eagerly tried to take the things from his venomous sister-in-law's hands.

It was obvious that she hadn't taken anything; the things were all in her older brother's hands.

"It doesn't matter," he said, forcing a worthless smile as he looked at Du Xiang.

"Sister-in-law, you're finally back!"
