Chapter 421: Good Nerves

~7 min read 1,341 words

Thinking of this, Si Rong suddenly saw the light.

If the person in that body right now was not Shen Yuan, but Bai Mo, then everything would be explained.

She had always wanted to deliberately get close to Si Nian, and ever since her reputation as a "Child Prodigy" spread, Li Xuan and Shen Lan had never looked for trouble again.

Because she thought the two families had turned hostility into friendship, so there was a possibility for her and Jiang Sinian to rekindle their old flame.

She was betting that Jiang Sinian would fall in love with her just like in her past life.

But in her past life, Si Rong was raised by Bai Jia Fumu and she didn't agree, let alone being raised by Li Xuan and Shen Lan in this life.

However, this was all just Si Rong's speculation; she still needed to find an opportunity to test it out before she could be sure.

"What's wrong with you?" Ming Zi asked when she saw her expression was off.

Si Rong waved her hand, "Nothing, just suddenly thought of Li Xuan."

"Sigh, why think of her?" Ming Zi comforted her in a simple and crude way, "Although she hurt you, she can be considered to have helped you see this cheap man Shen Lan clearly. Now you and Jiang Cheng are living an increasingly prosperous life, but they are living worse and worse. They deserve it!"

"You have a point," Si Rong transitioned the topic to her, "Although their life isn't easy, at least they have two people to keep each other company. So, sometimes it's quite good for a person to find a partner, don't you think?"

"Find who?" Ming Zi sneered, "You don't know, I am especially glad for the words you said to me back then. Didn't Luo Sheng get married a few years ago? His wife even gave birth to a son for him. Guess what? I saw him entangled with a widow two days ago. Tsk, if I were his wife, I'd be so angry I'd get sick."

Si Rong had also seen it, because in this life Ming Zi did not marry Luo Sheng, so Luo Sheng's married life was somewhat different from the past life.

Perhaps that playboy really liked Ming Zi in the past life, so he endured a year before cheating.

The wife he married in this life got into a big fight with Luo Sheng after only a few months.

After fighting and bickering for over a year and having a son, Luo Sheng played around outside even more unscrupulously.

It even seemed like Ming Zi had become his obsession, so he would come to test the waters every few months.

However, he only restrained himself after seeing that Ming Zi and Si Rong's business was growing bigger and bigger.

It really was very disappointing.

"Do you want to travel?" Si Rong really didn't know how to tell her, so she said, "Like going to a remote Haidao to relax or something?"

Ming Zi looked at her a bit strangely, "Rongrong, what exactly are you trying to say? Don't tell me you've been muddled by your sister-in-law?"

"Everything is fine, why would I go to a Haidao?"

Si Rong:...

Right, she had overlooked an important premise: the reason Ming Zi went to that Haidao in her past life was because she was there.

In this life, for her best friend's lifelong happiness, she had to make an effort.

"Actually, I'm the one who wants to travel." Si Rong made a sharp turn, "Sigh, I just feel a bit tired lately and want to find a Haidao to relax."

"Relax? Then let's go to Haishi or Jing Shi? Why go to a Haidao? Your husband is in the navy, and our Huaiyang is connected to the sea, haven't you seen enough of the sea?"

Mentioning this, Si Rong suddenly remembered, right, in her past life she and Jiang Cheng were on Songshan Island, and Xue Ming was also transferred there at that time.

If she wanted to meet Xue Ming in advance, I'm afraid going to a Haidao wouldn't work.

"You have a point, then let's wait and think about it carefully, and then go traveling together."

Si Rong thought, she couldn't just have her husband, children, and a warm bed, and just let Ming Zi live alone until she was nearly fifty to meet Xue Ming, right?

Although she didn't feel that being in her forties was very old in her past life, recalling the comparison of her married life with Jiang Cheng across two lifetimes, she felt that being young was better.

Otherwise, once you get older, you lose a bit of passion.

For example, now Jiang Cheng would carry her to the swing in the middle of the night from time to time, the two of them enjoying the moonlight, how nice that was.

Ming Zi:...

She didn't know why, but she just felt that her good bestie was a bit strange today.

Never mind, if the little princess wants to travel, she'll just accompany her; after all, she was meant to accompany her.

Maybe a few years ago, they were just friends.

But now, Si Rong had become a very important part of Ming Zi's life.

She felt that the bond between her and Si Rong had already surpassed friendship.

She understood even less how someone could turn against a friend for a man; anyway, for a friend like Si Rong, she wouldn't trade her even if she were given more men.

Si Rong waited until Jiang Cheng got off work and came home, and after they finished eating and went out for a walk, she asked about Xue Ming.

"Has he ever told you about his hometown? Or where he worked before going to Songshan Island?"

Jiang Cheng thought for a long while, "He seems to have mentioned it to me, he should be from Yunchuan City."

"But knowing he's from Yunchuan City is useless, the city is so big, Ming Zi wouldn't meet him if she went there, right?"

Si Rong, however, thought otherwise. She looked around, "Jiang Cheng, sometimes I feel there are many invisible threads in the air, these threads connect some people together, and when the time is right, some stories will happen."

"Where we are born, who we will meet, what kind of work we do, it's as if it were all designed in advance."

Jiang Cheng held her hand, "Mm, so we were destined to meet."

"Right, the two of us have the most fate," Si Rong said sweetly, "So in the past life, Ming Zi and Xue Ming met on Songshan Island because of us. Could it be that an invisible thread is also tied between them, and once certain conditions are triggered, they can meet?"

"You have a point, you deserve to be someone who has been a teacher, you're cultured, and you have logic and evidence." Jiang Cheng praised her in time.

Si Rong pinched his arm, "That's right! Don't look at whose wife I am!"

"Whose wife are you?" Jiang Cheng leaned in, teasing her on purpose.

"I'm Regimental Commander Jiang's wife!" Si Rong shook off his hand and trotted a few steps, "Then I've decided to take time next week to travel to Yunchuan City, I'll trouble Regimental Commander Jiang to take care of the house."

"Go ahead!" Jiang Cheng held her shoulders with both hands, "I will take good care of the house, how long do you plan to go for?"

"Taking the train, it'll take about half a month, right?"

Jiang Cheng frowned, not very willing, "Let Ming Zi go by herself! After all, it's her own lifelong happiness."

Si Rong:...

"Then how should I tell her?"

"Just say you want to travel, but you can't bear to leave your husband and children at home, so let her go in your place." Jiang Cheng immediately thought of an excuse for her.

Si Rong:...

What a psycho!
