Chapter 52 The Scapegoat with a Green Hat (Qi Yuan)

The original owner, Qi Yuan, was born in a rural area in the 1960s. Because he admired soldiers since childhood, he resolutely joined the army after graduating from high school. He worked his way up and eventually became a company commander.

As he grew older, the original owner reached the age to get married and have children. Through an introduction, he married Liu Ruyan, and soon after their marriage, they had a son and a daughter, making a perfect family.

After marriage, the original owner continued to stay in the army, always rushing forward for his wife and children, without considering the danger of the mission.

He tragically died during a mission. After his death, his soul wandered around his wife and children, watching Liu Ruyan flirt with his good brother Qin Shou and even instigate his children to call Qin Shou "Dad." The original owner was so angry that he almost came back to life.

Qin Shou was also married. At first, Qin Shou's wife, Zhou Chuxi, sympathized with Liu Ruyan and her son. However, as Qin Shou went to Liu Ruyan's house every day, Zhou Chuxi also noticed something was wrong.

Zhou Chuxi repeatedly reminded Qin Shou to be mindful of boundaries and limits, but Qin Shou always retorted that Zhou Chuxi lacked compassion. As a result, Zhou Chuxi became known as the heartless person in the compound, and her child was also disliked as a result.

Zhou Chuxi tried to explain many times, but each time she encountered Liu Ruyan and her two children. The three of them would look at the neighbors pitifully, with tears welling up in their eyes. No matter how you looked at it, it seemed like Zhou Chuxi had bullied them.

At this time, Qin Shou, who was usually extremely busy, would suddenly appear and give Zhou Chuxi a good scolding. Seeing that Qin Shou wasn't helping her but instead siding with the scheming mother and son, Zhou Chuxi fainted in anger.

She woke up in the hospital. When she woke up, she didn't see Qin Shou or anyone else. Only her parents were by her bedside. When her parents told her that she was pregnant, Zhou Chuxi's first reaction was to be happy.

Before Zhou Chuxi could even enjoy her happiness, Qin Shou arrived with Liu Ruyan and her son to apologize. The words he uttered nearly drove Zhou Chuxi mad with anger.

However, considering that she had already conceived Qin Shou's child, Zhou Chuxi endured it for more than half a year.

When Zhou Chuxi was eight months pregnant, the original owner's two children, instigated by Liu Ruyan, pushed Zhou Chuxi to the ground. When Zhou Chuxi was taken to the hospital, she was already in critical condition and could not be saved; she died just like that.

After Zhou Chuxi's death, Qin Shou and Liu Ruyan got together and had a son and a daughter. The original owner's children became the hardworking oxen for their family of four. Whenever the two children tried to rebel, Liu Ruyan would scare them by saying that they had deliberately killed Zhou Chuxi back then. The two children were still young, and they actually believed Liu Ruyan's threats.

After that, if Liu Ruyan said east, they dared not go west; if Liu Ruyan said to kill a duck, they dared not chase away a chicken. They served Liu Ruyan diligently for the rest of their lives. Three days after Liu Ruyan's death, after the brother and sister had completed Liu Ruyan's funeral, they followed her in death.

The bodies were found in front of Liu Ruyan's tombstone, but their half-siblings were unwilling to claim them. The two had never married and had no relatives living in the world. The bodies were left unclaimed and eventually destroyed in the funeral home after three years. They were either buried underground or scattered into the sea, depending on the mood of the administrator at the time.

The original owner had been following the brother and sister and couldn't understand why Liu Ruyan would treat her own children so harshly. Just as she noticed something amiss, the scene around her changed, and the original owner saw a young Liu Ruyan with her young children.

Is this rebirth? The original owner rubbed his eyes in disbelief, but found that Liu Ruyan and his children hadn't seen him at all. He waved his hand in front of them, but still no one noticed him. The original owner was a little confused.

It wasn't until she heard that Zhou Chuxi and Qin Shou had divorced that the original owner realized that it was Zhou Chuxi who had been reborn, not herself.

In this life, the original owner still stayed by the side of his two children. Due to Zhou Chuxi's revenge after her rebirth, Qin Shou lost his job in the army and had no choice but to retire and return to the countryside. When he left the military compound, he took Liu Ruyan and her two children with him.

Zhou Chuxi did not take drastic measures against Qin Shou and the others, so Liu Ruyan became pregnant again not long after, and the original owner's two children resumed the life they had lived in the previous life.

This time, the original owner followed closely and discovered some secrets.

It turns out that neither of the two children were the original owner's biological children; Liu Ruyan was already a month pregnant before marrying the original owner. As for the younger daughter, she wasn't the original owner's either, but Liu Ruyan wasn't sure who the father was.

As for why Liu Ruyan treated the two children badly, that can be traced back to the original owner of this body. Liu Ruyan believed that the original owner had discovered that the two children were not his biological offspring, so she gave the original owner sleeping pills before he went on his mission.

It was also because of that sleeping pill that the original owner failed to dodge in time when danger came. Qin Shou pulled her in front of him, shielding her from a fatal shot, and she died on the spot.

Qin Shou felt guilty, so he wanted to take care of Liu Ruyan and her two children. In the process of taking care of them, he ended up taking care of them in his own bed.

In his first life, the original owner felt sorry for his two children and wanted them to have a good life. But after experiencing Zhou Chuxi's second life, he felt that Zhou Chuxi was far too soft-hearted. If he had the chance, he would definitely make all four of them suffer a terrible death...

Yes, the original owner didn't intend to let go of those two children either.

The original owner doesn't have a chance to start over, but there's still a chance to have Qi Yuan take revenge.

"Honey, finish this bowl of soup before you go~" Liu Ruyan stood at the door with a small bowl of soup in her hand, her voice drawn out and very sweet.

"She's a mother now, what's wrong with her at her age? Don't delay my mission." It was absolutely impossible for her to cooperate while enduring disgust. Qi Yuan had no respect for women. To put it simply, in Qi Yuan's eyes, he wouldn't even bother to respect a stone, let alone the distinction between men and women.

Liu Ruyan originally wanted to stop Qi Yuan and coax him into drinking the soup with the added ingredients, but when she heard Qi Yuan say that, she felt a pang of guilt and looked at him. When she found that Qi Yuan was just a little impatient, she chuckled and stepped aside from the doorway.

Seeing that the doorway was empty, Qi Yuan gave Liu Ruyan a look that said, "You're smart to know what's good for you," grabbed her backpack, and rushed out of the house without leaving a word.

Upon arriving at the meeting point, Qi Yuan spotted Qin Shou from afar. In her previous two lives, it was because Qin Shou was cowardly and used the original owner as a shield that the original owner was caught in the act of taking a hit. Just then, the sleeping pills in the original owner's body took effect, leaving him unable to dodge in time.

"Old Qi, you're really slow. Are you still indulging in your sweet life and don't want to come out?" Qin Shou became excited as soon as he saw Qi Yuan, and his words were tinged with a hint of jealousy.

Before Qi Yuan could even speak, a whistle blew, and everyone fell silent, awaiting instructions.

Once in the car, everyone dozed off the whole way, replenishing their energy in advance. Before each mission, everyone would take a nap in the car, because they didn't know how long the mission would take. Qi Yuan and Qin Shou were no exception, and they didn't chat idly.

Upon arrival, they learned that the mission was related to overseas smuggling. Their task was to intercept a shipment of antiques destined for overseas. The smugglers were all armed and skilled in counter-surveillance, which is why the military and armed police were brought in to cooperate and try to apprehend them all.

Qi Yuan and Qin Shou were assigned to the same group, but they weren't very close. Just as the bullet was about to hit, Qi Yuan dodged Qin Shou's pull by sidestepping, and the bullet pierced Qin Shou's body with a muffled groan.

Qi Yuan quickly crouched down and rolled away from Qin Shou.

The sound of bullets whistling through the air rang out one after another, and Qin Shou dodged them in a sorry state. Before losing consciousness, Qin Shou had already been hit by several bullets and was almost riddled with holes.

Qi Yuan wouldn't let anyone die so quickly and easily. After feeding him half a small resurrection pill, he quickly finished off everyone.

The mission was a complete success. Apart from Qin Shou, no one was injured or killed, not even a scratch.

When Qin Shou woke up in the hospital, he saw his comrades standing in a row, all with rosy cheeks and heads held high. Only he was lying on the hospital bed, wrapped up like a mummy.

"Brother Qin, you're awake?" Someone with sharp eyes was the first to notice Qin Shou waking up and couldn't contain their excitement, shouting out on the spot.

Qin Shou felt as if the sound was about to knock him away, and he frowned helplessly.

At this moment, Zhou Chuxi also pushed open the door and entered. Without even looking at the soldiers standing in a row, she rushed straight towards Qin Shou.

Qin Shou was already covered in holes and seriously injured. Zhou Chuxi's pounce almost made him faint and die. It was the same loud-voiced soldier who spoke up: "Sister-in-law, Brother Qin just had surgery, and... well..." He couldn't withstand your pounce.

Hearing this, Zhou Chuxi felt it was inappropriate to continue lying on Qin Shou. She turned her head to look at the soldier who had spoken, and her gaze swept over Qi Yuan. Her pupils dilated in shock. She was somewhat confused as to why Qi Yuan was still alive. Could it be that he had also been reborn?

Did Qi Yuan know that Liu Ruyan would be with Qin Shou? Was Qi Yuan reborn to seek revenge or to repay a debt of gratitude?

Zhou Chuxi's thoughts were entirely focused on the matter of praying for rebirth, and she had no interest in Qin Shou's life or death.

"Since you're here, we'll be leaving now." Qi Yuan didn't want to stay any longer, but she waited a little longer out of politeness.

"Alright, thank you for your hard work, brothers..." Qin Shou said with difficulty, looking at Qi Yuan with gratitude. When he first woke up, the first person Qin Shou looked at was Qi Yuan. Judging from the attitudes and expressions of the others, he could tell that Qi Yuan had not told him about taking the bullet for him. No wonder Qin Shou was grateful.

Seeing that Qi Yuan had no reaction at all, Qin Shou assumed that Qi Yuan had not realized that he wanted to pull him to take the bullet, and his gratitude instantly faded, leaving only relief.

"I'll see them off." Zhou Chuxi still wanted to confirm Qi Yuan's purpose. She was originally not cunning, otherwise she wouldn't have been trapped by someone like Qin Shou. Even after being reborn, she only avoided being schemed against and did not seek revenge.

"Qi Yuan, I have something I want to ask you." Zhou Chuxi followed her out the door, closing the ward door behind her. After walking quite a distance, she called out to Qi Yuan.

Because Qi Yuan and Qin Shou usually had a decent relationship, the others assumed that Zhou Chuxi wanted to know about Qin Shou's injury and didn't think much of it. They nodded to Zhou Chuxi and left the hospital first.

Seeing that everyone had left, Zhou Chuxi finally said, "You were reborn." It wasn't a question, but a statement. Zhou Chuxi didn't know why she spoke so bluntly, but she felt that if she hesitated, the person in front of her might leave immediately.

To be honest, Zhou Chuxi's intuition was right. Qi Yuan wasn't a patient person to begin with, and after waiting for so long, he was already feeling incredibly irritable. Luckily, Zhou Chuxi didn't test him. If she had, Qi Yuan wouldn't have minded completely binding Zhou Chuxi, Qin Shou, and Liu Ruyan together.

"Hmm." Qi Yuan's reaction was very calm, but Zhou Chuxi's heart was already in turmoil. However, she still suppressed her shock and asked, "So, are you seeking revenge or repaying a debt of gratitude?"

“Enmity.” Another word.

Zhou Chuxi didn't know who Qi Yuan had a grudge against, but considering that Qin Shou was lying in a hospital room in this life while Qi Yuan was completely unharmed, Zhou Chuxi vaguely guessed the truth. Could it be that Qi Yuan's death was because of Qin Shou?

"I'm getting a divorce soon, please don't involve me, thank you." Zhou Chuxi didn't want to get involved in these matters, especially not with her own hands anymore. After saying this, she bowed deeply to Qi Yuan and waited for his reply.

"Hmm." Zhou Chuxi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Qi Yuan's reply.

Qin Shou waited in the ward and fell asleep again, unaware that his only son had turned into a pool of blood. Even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care, since Qin Shou was unaware that he had lost his fertility.
