Return to before death

Zong Zhengqing tried to grab Yan Ran's arm, but Yan Ran slapped him away: "Don't touch me! I never thought you were such a disgusting person!"

"Ranran..." Zongzheng Qing looked pained, as if hurt by Yan Ran's words.

Hearing the commotion, the matriarch came out and said with an arrogant expression, "This was my idea."

Yan Ran was stunned, looked at her mother, and said sadly, "Mom... how could you..."

"Don't call me Mom!" the matriarch said. "No matter what, Tangtang is still a member of the Zong family. If it weren't for this child, you would have been kicked out of the house long ago! And now you dare to shout here? Who do you think you are!"

Yan Ran felt a chill run through her body and sneered, "Heh, so you made Zong Qing marry me just so I would have a child..."

"Otherwise what?" The matriarch looked at Yan Ran with disdain: "With your status, how could you possibly enter my clan?"

"Mom...stop talking!" Zong Zhengqing interrupted his mother loudly, then turned to Yan Ran and said, "Ranran, it's not like that. I truly love you. I married you because I love you..."

Yan Ran chuckled self-deprecatingly, suddenly feeling all her strength drain away, and she no longer wanted to stay there.

"Zong Zhengqing, you are the one who should stop talking."

Yan Ran's tone was full of disappointment, which made Zong Zhengqing feel desperate. He had a feeling that Yan Ran was going to leave him forever.

"Ranran..." he called out in a low, pleading voice.

"Zong Zhengqing, let's get a divorce," Yan Ran said resolutely.

"No... Ranran, no..."

Yan Ran stopped arguing with Zong Zhengqing and went inside to retrieve the suitcase she had just brought back that day, which she hadn't even had a chance to open yet. Zong Zhengqing tried to persuade her to stay, but his mother ordered him, "Don't bother with this woman! It'll be better if she leaves!"

"Mom!" Zong Zhengjing, who had been silent until now, suddenly shouted.

Yan Ran glanced at Zong Zhengjing, her cold eyes devoid of any emotion.

She turned and walked out of the house.

Zong Zhengqing wanted to chase after her, but his mother behind him ordered him not to go out, and Zong Zhengqing's steps faltered at the door. Yan Ran felt even colder.

Zongzheng Jing glared at Zongzheng Qing with hatred for his uselessness, then ran out and caught up with Yan Ran, standing in front of her to block her way.

"Yan Ran, things are not as you think. Actually... I..." He didn't know how to continue.

Even if he couldn't say it, Yan Ran could guess what it meant.

What could he say?

Was he actually forced into it?

Actually, nothing happened between him and her that day?

However, if it weren't for Yan Ran's time travel, all of this would be a fait accompli. Even if it wasn't true for them, their thoughts still chilled and disgusted her.

Yan Ran glanced at him coldly and said, "Get out of the way."

Despite his struggle, Zong Zhengqing disobeyed his mother's orders and chased after her.

Upon seeing her elder brother emerge, Zongzheng Jing took two steps back, yielding her seat to Zongzheng Qing. After all, her elder brother was ultimately her husband.

Zong Zhengqing grabbed Yan Ran's hand, which was holding her luggage, and said, "Ranran, don't go. I really had no choice but to do that back then."

"Stop talking, I don't want to hear anything more." The facts I witnessed are enough to prove everything. Perhaps their love and marriage were just a joke.

"Ranran..."

Zong Zhengqing was about to say something more when a sudden change occurred.

A masked man wielding a long knife suddenly emerged from the corner and charged straight at them. He was covered in colorful dust, suggesting he had been lurking and waiting for a long time. Seeing Zong Zhengqing finally emerge from the house, he charged forward, shouting, "Zong Zhengqing! I'll take your life!"

Seeing the man running towards Zong Zhengqing, Zong Zhengqing, startled by the sudden attack, instinctively hid behind Yan Ran and even pushed her.

She was stunned, and her heart turned ice-cold.

Yan Ran was suddenly pushed by Zong Zhengqing and staggered half a step in the direction the man was rushing towards. However, she reacted quickly and used the momentum to throw the backpack in her hand at the man. Then she fell to the side and landed on the ground, avoiding the man's fatal attack. She only suffered a cut on her arm from the knife.

The backpack that Yan Ran threw out buffered the man's attack. In this gap, Zong Zhengqing reacted and stepped forward to wrestle with the man. Yan Ran endured the pain and quickly got up from the ground. She looked back at Zong Zhengqing, who was standing there dumbfounded.

The man had a knife, and Zong Zhengjing was at a complete disadvantage. He was pushed to the ground by the man, who raised the knife to stab Zong Zhengjing. Yan Ran grabbed a brick from the flower bed next to the house and smashed it down on the man's head, stunning him.

Zongzheng seized the opportunity to flip over and push the man down, snatched the knife from his hand, tied his hands behind his back with his own outer sleeve, and pinned him down with his legs.

The man, restrained by Zong Zhengjing, kept cursing: "Zong Zhengqing, you profit-driven, selfish demon! You don't deserve to be a doctor! You misused medicine and killed my wife! I'm going to kill you!"

The matriarch has already instructed the servants to call the police.

Zongzheng Jing held the man in place, then nervously turned to look at Yan Ran. He saw a patch of bright red blood on her arm and was heartbroken. He cried out, "Ranran!"

Yan Ran gritted her teeth, enduring the pain in her arm.

Zong Zhengqing seemed to have just come back to his senses and ran to Yan Ran's side, trying to help her up, but Yan Ran slapped him away. She looked at Zong Zhengqing with a cold smile and said, word by word, "We are getting a divorce."

She never imagined that in that moment of danger, her husband would hide behind her, even pushing her away to face the impending peril. How blind she had been to not realize Zong Zhengqing was this kind of person. Just as the controlled man had said, Zong Zhengqing was a selfish, profit-driven individual.

Zong Zhengqing was completely panicked at this moment. But he also realized that no matter how much he pleaded with her, Yan Ran would not turn back.

From the moment he unconsciously hid behind her, their fate was sealed.

Yan Ran resolutely refused to let Zong Zhengqing get close to her, and the Zong family's servants helped her with simple bandaging.

An ambulance arrived along with the police car.

The police arrived quickly.

The person who got off the bus was none other than Qin Zhiyuan. Qin Zhiyuan handcuffed the man's wrists, and the man struggled unwillingly, shouting, "Why are you arresting me! You should be arresting Zong Zhengqing! My wife was killed by their Zong family's hospital! They used random drugs on my wife and killed her! They are the real murderers!"

Qin Zhiyuan frowned, suppressed the man, and shouted sternly, "Shut up!"
