Reborn in 1977, starting with severing ties with family.

Luo Jianshe's purchase of the abandoned primary school went very smoothly.

Wang Jianguo was at the company making preparations for moving.

Jiang Sen wanted to help, but he didn't even leave the house.

He stood at the gate, looking at the people there with disgust.

"Jiang Sen, I know you don't want to see me, but I was forced into this situation. You saw what happened. I was supposed to be with you... but when I woke up, I found it was Jiang Lei. What am I, a weak woman, supposed to do?"

Huang Liping cried with tears streaming down her face, looking like a wronged little cabbage that had been reborn.

"Who are you?" Jiang Sen looked at her coldly. "Saying all this nonsense at my front door first thing in the morning, as if I did something to you."

Huang Liping wore a black cotton-padded jacket and a red scarf, which made her small face look even smaller, and could not hide her slender yet well-endowed figure.

She wiped away her tears and tried to smile. "Jiang Sen, I know you blame me, but I know that only you are truly sincere to me. They're the ones who ruined me, you can't do this to me too! You used to love me so much, you gave me whatever I wanted, and because of that time... I don't understand why things turned out that way, but it really wasn't me, really, you have to believe me!"

Jiang Sen tried hard to suppress his anger.

At the time, he just wanted to do whatever made him feel good.

Having just been reborn, he simply didn't have much time to think or prepare.

Looking back now, he really couldn't refute what Huang Liping said.

Because it was indeed him and Huang Liping in bed at the time, and he was the one who knocked her unconscious and brought her to Jiang Lei's room.

Now that Huang Liping has vehemently denied it, he has nothing to say.

Otherwise, how do you explain that he already knew about their plan?

Unexpected prophet?

Did Huang Liping not disclose this situation at the time?

Jiang Sen's eyes flickered, and when Huang Liping saw this, she felt that she had made the right decision to come; he still had feelings for her.

"I know that being with Jiang Lei that day hurt you, and I was heartbroken too. I even thought about ending it all so you would understand that you're the only one in my heart, but..."

"But Jiang Dayou promised you a job, and you're pregnant with Jiang Lei's child, right?"

Jiang Sen looked at Huang Liping with a mocking expression.

"Who do you think you are? Do you think you're still that virgin you used to be?" Jiang Sen spoke without any politeness. "Don't talk about the past. Even now, if you stood naked in front of me, I wouldn't react at all!"

"Jiang Sen!" Huang Liping burst into tears again. "Was everything you did for me before fake? Were all the things you gave me, the things you gave me, fake?"

"If you want to fish, you need to use bait, but if you find that the fish doesn't want to eat it, you don't need to use bait anymore. Tell me, is that true or false?"

Jiang Sen didn't want to argue with her anymore, so he pushed his bicycle and prepared to leave.

But Huang Liping blocked his way, "Why are you doing this to me? Why should I be sacrificed for the feud between you two brothers! I hate Jiang Lei, but I can't hate you! Jiang Sen... I just want one question from you: Did you ever love me?"

"No!" Even if he did, Jiang Sen wouldn't admit it. "I just wanted to play around with you before, and you actually took it seriously? Do you really think you're something special? Get lost, or my wife will beat you up if you keep bothering me!"

These words made Huang Liping's expression change. "You're married?"

"Aren't you being a bit nosy? What business is it of yours whether I get married or not? Get out of my way!"

"Jiang Sen!" Huang Liping seemed to have gone all out, regardless of whether anyone was around, she started shouting at Jiang Sen, "If you don't want me, I'll die!"

"If you're going to die, die somewhere far away!" Jiang Sen was truly exasperated with her; she even resorted to such tricks.

He knew Huang Liping too well; she wouldn't die if there was even the slightest hope.

"I……"

Watching Jiang Sen get on his bike and ride off at breakneck speed, Huang Liping stomped her foot in frustration.

She stared at the door, her eyes filled with hatred. "Since your Jiang family treats me like a plaything, none of you will have a good time!"

She turned and left without seeing the door open, and the old cripple and Yingzi came out from inside.

"Girl, this girl's intentions are not good!"

Yingzi pouted, "Bring it on! If I back down, I'll take her surname!"

The old cripple laughed, "Let's go buy some vegetables. I see we don't have many radishes left, so let's buy some more and dry them into radish slices."

"The radish peel is delicious when pickled, and the rest can be used to make dumplings."

"Listen to you."

The two locked the door as they talked and headed towards the farmers' market.

Huang Liping stormed home, and her mother immediately asked, "Did you see him? What did you say?"

Huang Liping took off her coat and threw it aside, then lazily leaned against the wall and sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed).

"seen!"

"You saw him? Did he say anything? Did he feel sorry for you and ask you to move in with him?"

"Hmph!" Huang Liping scoffed sarcastically. "Do you all think he's a fool? He said he's married, how could he possibly want a used woman like me!"

Mrs. Huang was somewhat surprised and looked at Mr. Huang, "This..."

This is different from what Huang Dajun said.

Huang Liping looked at them, feeling annoyed. She got up, put on her coat, picked up the child on the kang (a heated brick bed), and walked out.

"Where are you going?" Huang's mother quickly jumped down and grabbed her, not even putting on her shoes, and used her foot to hook her shoes over.

"Send it to the Jiang family! They can't expect us to raise their offspring, can they?"

"Hey, come back here! Put it down!"

Huang's mother gave Huang's father a wink, and Huang's father pulled the child over and placed him next to him.

Huang's mother pressed Huang Liping down onto the kang (a heated brick bed).

"Girl, aren't you stupid? Sending it back to them is just letting them off easy."

The attitude Huang Liping felt from Jiang Sen was even more humiliating than when she was first captured.

Why should I listen to my mother and personally offer myself up to be humiliated?

Isn't this cheap?

Huang's mother continued, "They can still afford to raise the child if you have him. But what good will it do you if you send him back? He won't be close to you when he grows up. Isn't that foolish? Daughter, listen to your mother. Let's discuss it again when your brother comes back."

Huang Liping was just angry in the moment, but now that she has calmed down, she realizes that her mother is right.

At the very least, the child belongs to the Jiang family.

Even if Jiang Sen isn't there, there's still Jiang Lei.

Although Jiang Lei is in Daxibi and it's still unknown whether he can come back, can Jiang Dayou and Bai Jing just watch their grandson call someone else "Dad"?

As they were talking, Huang Dajun returned, bringing back a roast duck.

"What's wrong with you guys again?" He sensed something was off as soon as he came in and looked at Huang Liping. "Did you go? What did that kid Jiang Sen say?"

Huang Liping said irritably, "What can I say? You insulted me and told me to go die somewhere far away if I want to die!"

Huang Dajun hadn't expected this outcome, but he knew that this matter couldn't be rushed.

He smiled and put down the roast duck. "Alright, alright, it didn't work out, so what? It's okay, Mom! Make another dish, and Dad and I will have a couple of drinks."

Mr. Huang was already starving. He kicked Mrs. Huang on the kang (a heated brick bed), "Hurry up and go! We'll talk after you've eaten!"

Huang's mother went to the kitchen, muttering to herself.

Father Huang also went out to chop firewood.

Seeing Huang Liping's unhappy face, Huang Dajun smiled and sat down next to her. "Little sister, listen to your brother, I promise you'll have a good life from now on. Today, Jiang Dayou gave the children their living expenses, and I bought you a roast duck to help you make up for it."

"Living expenses?" Huang Liping asked. "Where's the money?"

"it took!"
