The little drama queen is both capricious and naughty, but her military officer husband insists on s

Jiang Zao walked for a long time before finally reaching the bus stop, her calves feeling weak from exhaustion.

There were no seats at the bus stop, so Jiang Zao had to find a stone stool very close to the bus stop to sit on.

The stone block was near the roadside and covered in dust, but she didn't care.

If she doesn't find a place to sit for a while, she won't be able to stand anymore.

Jiang Zao casually brushed the dust off his clothes and sat down.

She sat down and started muttering to herself, "Jiang Zao, you've gone too far. He doesn't want you anymore."

"Why did you have to fall for Lu Yanxun of all people? What's so great about him? He's just a little handsome, a little outstanding... and a little rich..."

"...Okay, I guess you have good taste, but he already has a partner, okay? No matter how good your taste is, he's still someone else's. What right do you have to use underhanded tactics to steal him away?"

"As it turns out, it's useless to steal what isn't yours. Now look what happened! You've really ruined my life."

Jiangzao is feeling very confused right now.

Suddenly, she felt that the world was vast, yet there was nowhere for her to belong.

She actually has her parents' home to return to, but she's afraid that going back in such a humiliating way would cause trouble for her parents.

She could almost foresee the criticism she would face in the village if she went back like this.

The eldest daughter of the Jiang family was abandoned by her wealthy in-laws while pregnant. It must be because the Jiang family failed to raise their daughter properly, which made her in-laws dislike her. They were afraid that her child would be like her, so they abandoned her and the baby together.

Alternatively, the child that Jiang's eldest daughter is carrying must not belong to her wealthy in-laws, otherwise why would they rather not have the child and abandon her?

Or perhaps, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family's wealthy husband abandoned his wife and children for true love, and the Jiang family overestimated themselves and tried to climb the social ladder by getting pregnant, thinking that they could become a phoenix on a branch of the tree, but in the end, their dream of marrying into a wealthy family was shattered.

In short, no matter what, there won't be anything nice to say to her.

She doesn't care; she just ignores what others say about her.

But she didn't want to drag her parents and younger siblings down with her and be subjected to public criticism.

As the sun set and darkness approached, Jiang Zao could only sit there like a homeless person.

Gurgling.

Jiangzao's stomach started growling too.

"I'm still hungry... Jiang Zao, you're such a failure."

Jiang Zao was dejected and extremely depressed.

"Why don't we go back? Anyway, with Great-Grandma around, Lu Yanxun probably won't dare to go too far. His family will definitely still want the child. What do you think, Jiang Zao?"

Jiang Zao muttered to herself and began to talk to herself.

"But going back like this is too pathetic. They don't want you anymore, and you're still going to invite this kind of humiliation. How pathetic..."

"But the child is hungry... and where else can we go if we don't go back? We have no money, and there are no buses to our parents' house at this hour. Why don't we go back and stay for the night, and talk about it tomorrow?"

Just as she was looking down, considering whether to go back to the Lu family first and make plans later, someone suddenly spoke to her.

"Whose wife are you? Why are you sitting here? Where are you going? Do you want your uncle to give you a ride?"

Jiang Zao looked up and saw that the other person was a man in his thirties or forties, pushing a bicycle.

The man had a small mustache on his face and didn't look like a good person.

A pair of triangular eyes were still sizing her up and down.

Jiang Zao felt uncomfortable being stared at by the other person's direct gaze and subconsciously hugged her stomach.

She didn't reply, glanced at the man, and then looked away.

I hope the man will be sensible and leave on his own.

Seeing that Jiang Zao was alone, the man with triangular eyes put down his bicycle and walked towards her.

Soon, the man's long shadow, cast by the setting sun, completely enveloped Jiang Zao.

Jiang Zao felt scared, but she didn't dare let the other person see that she was afraid.

With a dark expression, she coldly questioned, "What are you doing?"

"I'll help you." The man grinned, his mustache twitching slightly with his smile. "I can see you're all alone, you must be waiting for someone, right?"

As the man spoke, his eyes lingered on Jiang Zao's stomach for a moment with ill intent.

Then he asked, "Uncle, you don't look that old. Did you have an affair behind your family's back, get pregnant, elope with someone, and then get abandoned?"

Hearing the man's words, Jiang Zao felt a wave of nausea.

Jiang Zao glared fiercely at the man, mustering her courage to shout, "Get out of here! The person I'm waiting for will be here soon, get lost! Don't bother me!"

Despite Jiang Zao's fierce demeanor, the man showed no fear whatsoever.

He approached teasingly: "Don't try to fool me. I've been watching you for a while. You don't look like you're waiting for someone. You've obviously been dumped by a man."

"I have a place to stay with you. Why don't you come back with me and I'll take good care of you? As long as you're willing to come with me, I won't mind the bastard in your belly."

Upon hearing the words "bastard," Jiang Zao's anger surged to the top of her head.

She stood up abruptly from the stone stool, one hand clutching her stomach, the other on her hip, and retorted with a string of curses:

"You lowlife scoundrel, I'm warning you, don't mess with me! Let me tell you, my husband is a military officer! If you dare to speak rudely to me again, wait for my husband to come and knock your teeth out!"

"Oh, you're pretty fierce!" The man didn't take Jiang Zao's threat seriously at all.

They didn't believe a word she said.

She even mocked, "A military officer husband, my foot! If your husband were really a military officer, would he let a pregnant woman like you come out alone? I think you're just a dumped girl! Maybe he found out the child in your belly wasn't his, so he kicked you out."

Jiangzao was angered by the man.

Seeing that Jiang Zao remained silent, the man continued, "Didn't I hit the nail on the head? If you come with me obediently, I won't despise you like your husband did."

As the man spoke, he reached out to pull Jiang Zao: "Let's go, my house is far away, and it will get dark if we don't go back soon."

"Don't touch me!" Jiang Zao's face turned pale with fright when she saw the man start to hit her. "Get away! Don't touch me!"

Jiang Zao waved her hand, trying to shoo away the man who was trying to pull her away.

But the man was tall and strong, and she was a pregnant woman with limited mobility. If he really wanted to drag her away, she would have no way to resist.

Seeing that the man's hand was about to touch her, Jiang Zao could only scream for help.

"Help! Help!"

Jiang Zao shouted for help while waving her hands to drive the man away.

The fear in my heart was magnified to the extreme in that instant.

"What are you doing!"

A deep, angry shout rang out from not far away.

Immediately afterward, Lu Yanxun rushed over and kicked the man away before he could react.

Lu Yanxun pulled Jiang Zao into his arms.

Jiang Zao didn't know that Lu Yan had come looking for her; she thought the person holding her was the hooligan from before.

She was so frightened that she burst into tears, waving her hands and claws wildly, and kicking her feet frantically.

"Let me go! Let me go! Help! Help! There are human traffickers!"

Jiang Zao screamed in panic.

Lu Yanxun wrapped his arms around the struggling Jiang Zao, holding her tightly in his embrace to comfort her: "It's me, Lu Yanxun. It's alright, I'm here. Don't be afraid."

A soft, low voice sounded above Jiang Zao's head.

The reassuring embrace enveloped her completely, filling her nostrils with Lu Yanxun's unique scent.

Jiang Zao looked up and saw Lu Yanxun's familiar jawline.

He turned around and saw the thug who had been kicked to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time, which brought him back to his senses from the fear.

Coming to her senses, Jiang Zao grabbed Lu Yanxun's waist and threw herself into his broad embrace, bursting into tears.

"Why did you take so long to get here!" Jiang Zao cried and complained, "Lu Yanxun, you bastard, why did you take so long to get here... Do you know how scared I was! I was almost scared to death, you know that!"

"You almost didn't see me... Waaaaah... He almost kidnapped me... Waaaaah..."

Listening to Jiang Zao's accusations, Lu Yanxun felt a wave of fear wash over him.

If it weren't for his timely kick, that man's filthy hands would have touched Jiang Zao.

God knows how fast his heart was beating just now.

"Don't be afraid anymore." Lu Yanxun hugged Jiang Zao and comforted her softly, "I won't let him kidnap you, and I won't let him touch you."

"I was so scared! Why did it take you so long to come! Where did you go! Why did it take you so long to get here?!"

Jiang Zao sobbed and buried herself in Lu Yanxun's arms.

Snot and tears smeared all over Lu Yanxun's chest.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault for being late." Lu Yanxun's strong arms still held Jiang Zao tightly.

He readily apologized without the slightest resistance.

The thug who was kicked to the ground was not about to suffer a loss.

He struggled to his feet, spat out a mouthful of blood, and rolled up his sleeves, wanting to seek revenge on Lu Yanxun.

Although Lu Yanxun was comforting Jiang Zao, Leng Ning's gaze did not miss the rogue's every move.

Seeing the other party approaching menacingly, his expression immediately turned cold.

Before the thug could get close, he kicked him again.

As he lifted his leg, Lu Yanxun also picked up Jiang Zao horizontally.

Lu Yanxun's kick was even harder than the previous one, and the thug was kicked to the ground again.

He clutched his stomach in pain and rolled around on the ground twice.

"roll."

Lu Yanxun's voice was extremely cold.

Murderous.

The thug was so frightened by the kick that he dared not cause any more trouble, no matter how unwilling he was.

He endured the pain, got up from the ground, and ran off pushing his bicycle, grimacing.

In fact, Lu Yanxun originally wanted to take the man to the police station and accuse him of hooliganism.

However, he was worried that Jiang Zao would be too frightened, and he didn't want to waste time. He wanted to take her home as soon as possible, so after thinking it over, he had no choice but to give up for the time being.

But he will definitely find this person.

He remembered his face; he couldn't escape.

Jiang Zao was carried back by Lu Yanxun, crying and sobbing.

The two Lu sisters, who were waiting anxiously at the gate of the compound, saw Lu Yanxun return from afar.

When they saw that he was holding someone in his arms, the two sisters held hands and wept with joy.

"Brother has found his sister-in-law!" Lu Yanwei exclaimed excitedly.

When Lu Yanting saw the two figures, she couldn't help but cry with excitement: "Thank God, she didn't go back to her parents' home!"

The two sisters went to greet her with excitement, but when they got closer, they found that Jiang Zao was crying.

She looked like she was crying very sadly, her face was covered in tears, and she was sobbing uncontrollably.

The two looked at the crying Jiang Zao, and then glanced at Lu Yanxun, whose face was extremely pale.

I knew what had happened instantly.

— Jiang Zao was scolded to tears by Lu Yanxun.

Seeing Jiang Zao crying so miserably, Lu Yanting's stomach even started to ache with her sobs.

Suddenly he was furious.

"Lu Yanxun!" Lu Yanting called her brother by his full name, and indignantly accused him, "It's enough that we found her, why did you have to scold her!"

"She's pregnant. She needs care, she needs protection, she needs your gentle and considerate attention. So what if she was a little willful and ran away from home once? But she didn't actually manage to leave, did she? It's fine if she didn't manage to leave, it's good that she came back. Why did you yell at her until she cried?!"

Lu Yanting was so angry she jumped up and down.

"Why did she run away from home? Wasn't it because you had an affair? She's been living alone in your empty house since the day she married you. She finally waited for you to come back, and you treat her like this! Lu Yanxun, you've gone too far!" Lu Yanting kept berating her brother.

Jiang Zao cried all the way, and was already exhausted from crying.

She had already started to calm down and was slowly stopping crying.

But Lu Yanting's words reminded her of what happened today.

The story of being about to be abandoned and almost being kidnapped.

So Jiangzao cried again.

Jiang Zao turned into Lu Yanxun's arms and buried her head in her hands, bursting into tears.

It's too awful.

Although they avoided being abducted, they could not avoid being abandoned.

However, she didn't cry because she was miserable, nor was she crying on her behalf.

She cried for the original owner of the body.

The original owner put in a lot of effort, but in the end it was all for nothing.

One really shouldn't be too strict with oneself.

It was both tragic and deserved.

As soon as Jiang Zao started crying, Lu Yanxun's cold gaze swept over Lu Yanting.

Lu Yanting was so frightened that she trembled.

She clung tightly to Lu Yanwei's arm, hiding behind her sister and continuing to stomp her feet: "What are you glaring at me for? Lu Yanxun, let me tell you, you can forget about letting Sister Xiaoyue squeeze out Sister Jiang... Sister-in-law! Our sister-in-law can only be Jiang Zao! Even if it's Sister Xiaoyue, we won't acknowledge her!"

After finishing her dance, she vigorously shook her sister's arm for approval: "Sis, am I right?"

“Yes!” Lu Yanwei nodded vigorously.

Lu Yanting became more confident: "Brother, starting today, you and Sister Xiaoyue must break off all contact. You are not allowed to communicate with each other anymore!"

Jiang Zao's crying stopped abruptly.

She turned her head, her hoarse voice still trembling with sobs: "Who?"

"Huh?" Lu Yanting's mind went blank; she didn't understand what Jiangzao meant.

"Who did you just say? Who is the person communicating with Lu Yanxun?" Jiang Zao continued gossiping even while crying.

Lu Yanting was taken aback for a moment, but without thinking much, she replied, "Sister Xiaoyue."

"What?" Jiang Zao exclaimed in surprise, "The person communicating with Lu Yanxun is your sister Xiaoyue? Then who is his mistress?"

Lu Yanting was afraid of being asked questions because she didn't know what Jiang Zao wanted to ask.

But she was also afraid of Jiang Zao crying.

She was afraid that if she didn't answer, she would cry again.

Lu Yanting hesitated for a second, but finally obediently answered, "It's also Sister Xiaoyue."

"Is there... anyone else?" Lu Yanting looked uncertainly at her cold and silent brother, then at her bewildered sister. "No... anyone else, right?"

"no!"

Lu Yanwei answered decisively.

Jiangzao: "..."

Oh, so after all this time, Lu Yanxun only ever had Su Xinyue in his heart.

Jiang Zao was very dissatisfied with the truth of the matter and nestled back into Lu Yanxun's arms in disappointment.

How boring, I made her curious for so long.

Distracted by Lu Yanting, Jiang Zao could no longer cry.

Finally, they gave up and, exhausted, leaned against Lu Yanxun's chest in a daze.

At that moment, the chest against which his ear was pressed vibrated; it was Lu Yanxun speaking:

"Jiang Zao, I haven't been corresponding with anyone, nor have I been having an affair."
