"Qi Yuan…" The man's deep voice sounded in Qi Yuan's ear.
Qi Yuan suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were filled with hostility, and her consciousness was in a daze.
She grabbed the sharp pendant around her neck and slashed at the person beside her.
Sharp gems cut through the flesh, and the smell of blood confused Qi Yuan's consciousness even more. A crazy viciousness spread, like a vicious dog biting at someone.
In the next moment, Qi Yuan's hands were grabbed and pressed against the bed.
"Let—me—go!" She struggled.
"Snap." The room light came on.
The bright light made Qi close her eyes. When she opened them again, she could see the man pressing against her.
Her consciousness finally returned from the trance.
"Shen… Shen Yutang?" she exclaimed.
The man's robe was slightly torn open, and his chest was dripping with blood. He had a high nose bridge and a perfect jawline. His eyes were as unfathomable as the stars as he looked at her, looking as handsome as a god.
Qi Yuan's madness that seemed to want to drag the world to hell finally turned into shock.
'Didn't she retaliate with her life at the adulterous couple's wedding?'
Why was she beside Shen Yutang?
She didn't have a dagger in her chest, and her body wasn't aching from the cancer.
Was it a dream? But would she still be able to dream when she was dead?
At this moment, Qi Yuan saw the time and date on the LCD screen of the bedside lamp. She was completely shocked.
July 15, 2017.
Five years ago!!!
Could there really be an afterlife?
No, this is not the afterlife. This is rebirth!
She had been reborn as the her five years ago, when she was being forced… to carry out a substitute marriage.
And in front of her was her new husband, Shen Yutang.
The woman's shock was too obvious. Shen Yutang frowned and said with dark eyes, "Do you like Song Ziqian so much that you're determined to divorce me?"
Qi Yuan subconsciously shook her head. Her pale and weak appearance had become completely different from her fierce and hurtful appearance just now.
The Shen family was the richest family in Jiang Lin, but it was said that the second young master of the Shen family was a cripple with a strange personality who sat in a wheelchair. The Qi family coveted the Shen family's wealth and agreed to the marriage. However, Qi Yanran was unwilling to marry, so she was asked to marry him instead.
In the past, she had always been thinking about Song Ziqian so of course, she was unwilling to marry.
Hence, she was injected with a tranquilizer and forcefully sent into the Shen family.
It was not until she was sent to the Shen family that she realized that she was not marrying the rumored flawed Second Young Master Shen, but Eldest Young Master Shen.
The Shen family had two sons.
The Second Young Master, Shen Yuzhi, never walked outside. It was rumored that he was a cripple with a bad temper.
As for the Eldest Young Master, Shen Yutang, the head of the Shen family, he was only 26 years old and controlled almost half of the business lifeline of Jianglin. He was a terrifying man that the entire upper-class circle of Jianglin looked up to. He was also the man those socialites dreamed of marrying.
However, in her previous life, Qi Yuan did not care much about this outstanding man.
After all, she had been forced to marry him, so she was full of grievances and anger. Admitting that she liked Song Ziqian on their wedding night, she made a fuss and wanted a divorce!
Hence her five-year marriage to Shen Yutang was breaking apart amidst all the ruckus .
In the end, when she was cornered, her relatives and friends were the ones hitting her when she was down. On the other hand, Shen Yu helped her again and again.
He had hired a mystical master to teach her medicine and various skills despite her objections. He had even personally taught her martial arts, saying that she could use it to protect herself.
If it hadn't been for the unexpected cancer, she wouldn't have been in a hurry to get her revenge.
If Shen Yutang had been in Jianglin at that time, she might not have died…
Many people in this world owed her, except the man in front of her. Not only did he not owe her anything, she was the one who owed him a favor.
It's surprising that she got rebirthed to the night of the substitute marriage five years ago when she accidentally hurt Shen Yutang.
Qi Yuan instantly restrained all her hatred and hostility.
She looked up at Shen Yutang with a pale face and said weakly and obediently, "I don't like that bastard Song Ziqian anymore! Eldest Young Master, I'm not getting a divorce."
