She died tragically at her engagement banquet, and was reborn to marry the heir of the Beijing elite

The excruciating pain from her previous life seemed not to have completely subsided, and Shen Mengxia felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at Qiao Wanwan.

Suddenly, text like bullet comments appeared before my eyes: "Does the female lead know that the person who killed her was sent by Qiao Wanwan?"

"The female lead seems to be very afraid of Qiao Wanwan?"

"The female lead is so much prettier than Qiao Wanwan, what kind of taste does Ye Huaiting have?"

"This Qiao Wanwan is a black lotus; she doesn't allow any woman to be around Ye Huaiting."

"My dear female lead, both of these brothers love you."

What are these? Shen Mengxia thought she must be hallucinating. She shook her head vigorously, and the words really disappeared.

There was a lot of information, but Shen Mengxia still chose to believe it.

She guessed that Qiao Wanwan would want to kill her for no reason other than because of Ye Huaiting.

It seems the crisis is not over yet. Shen Mengxia knows she can't let herself be alone and give the assassin an opportunity, but she can't keep skipping classes either. It's really a headache!

If only I hadn't clung to Ye Huaiting all the time, making everyone around us misunderstand that we were childhood sweethearts.

The current situation is too passive; we must take the initiative to find an opportunity to counter Qiao Wanwan.

But she had no clue what to do. For safety's sake, she decided to hire a bodyguard or something similar. However, a bodyguard would be too conspicuous, so she simply hired a driver instead.

She immediately went back to her room and contacted a headhunting company, asking them to hire a demobilized soldier as her driver, available 24/7, with a monthly salary of 150,000 yuan.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Mengxia frowned. In her previous life, she died two days later, which meant that Qiao Wanwan and Ye Huaiting would announce their engagement two days later. But Qiao Wanwan had only just returned to the country, and the two of them had only been together for two days.

"Young Master, Miss, something terrible has happened! The Old Master has fainted!" Aunt Liu shouted as she ran through the villa, pulling Shen Mengxia back from her reverie.

The group rushed to Grandpa's room, and as soon as they entered, they saw him lying on the bed, his face pale. Ye Huaiting quickly stepped forward and took the old man's hand, his voice trembling slightly, "Grandpa, what's wrong?"

Shen Mengxia was also extremely anxious, her eyes red. At this moment, Fu Yanchen rushed over with the family doctor. After a thorough examination, his brows furrowed. Everyone's hearts jumped into their throats.

The doctor slowly said, "This is a relapse of an old illness in the old man. He needs to recuperate for a while and must not be subjected to any further stimulation during this time. I will give the old man his medicine first, and he will wake up in a little while. However, the old man doesn't have much time left, so you'd better be prepared."

As soon as the family doctor finished speaking, Fu Yanchen nodded slightly and subtly gave Liu Ma a look. Liu Ma understood immediately and respectfully stepped forward, carefully accompanying the doctor out of the room.

The atmosphere in the room was heavy and oppressive. Everyone looked solemn, their eyes fixed on the frail old man on the bed, as if afraid to miss any subtle changes.

Time passed slowly, and everyone waited silently.

Finally, after a while, Grandpa's eyelids twitched slightly, and then he slowly opened his eyes.

Grandpa opened his mouth and said in a weak but clear voice, "Xiao Chen... Grandpa... doesn't have much time left... cough cough cough..." At this point, he couldn't help but cough violently, and his body trembled.

Fu Yanchen quickly stepped forward and gently patted his back, trying to help him relieve his discomfort.

After his cough subsided a little, Grandpa continued in his hoarse voice, "Grandpa's biggest wish in this life is to see you and Xiaoting get married before I close my eyes... I wonder if this small wish... can still be fulfilled?" After saying that, he looked at Fu Yanchen and Ye Huaiting with expectation in his cloudy eyes.

Looking at his grandfather's expectant gaze, Fu Yanchen couldn't bear to refuse.

"Yes, Grandpa, you will definitely see the day when your grandchildren get married and start their own families! Huaiting already has a girlfriend, and I also have someone I want to marry, so don't worry!" Fu Yanchen looked at his grandfather with a sincere expression, his eyes filled with determination and promise.

"Yes, you will. If you live to be a hundred, you'll definitely see my brother and I get married," Ye Huaiting said, his eyes filled with tears.
