Chapter 423: I Promise I Will Be Good to Him

Generally speaking, if you call a person's name when they are completely off guard, they will subconsciously turn their head.

But Shen Yuan did not.

Li Xuan did hear her voice, turned around, and frowned, "Si Rong, what kind of madness are you up to again?"

Shen Yuan turned around following her mother and said very politely, "Hello, Si Yu's mother."

She had almost turned around at that shout of "Bai Mo" just now, but she had confirmed one thing.

Perhaps because she was bedridden for a long time in her previous life, her neck was still somewhat stiff in this life; usually, when someone called her from behind, she wouldn't turn her head directly, but would always slowly turn her whole body first.

After lowering her head to say a few words to Li Xuan, Li Xuan walked to the side first.

Shen Yuan walked up to Si Rong, tilted her head, and smiled at her, "Auntie Si Rong, did you also have a Rebirth?"

Otherwise, how would you know about Bai Mo?

"Yes, just like you." Si Rong knew that if you want to catch fish, you have to use bait.

The two looked at each other, and Si Rong confirmed again, "You are Bai Mo, not Shen Yuan, right?"

"Auntie, you are truly clever," Shen Yuan didn't want to act anymore, "Heaven is indeed unfair. It gave you beauty, a happy family, a husband who loves you, both a son and a daughter, and as if that wasn't enough, it even gave you a chance to start over."

"But my previous life was so miserable. However, I don't hate you, nor do I want to go against you. I only have one obsession, and that is Jiang Sinian."

"If we are together, I promise you, I will definitely be good to him."

Hearing these words from the mouth of a five-year-old child made one feel inexplicably creeped out.

"You two are not suitable," Si Rong's attitude remained firm, "I will not agree to you being together."

"So, you intend to let him stay with Jiang Yue in this life too? Wouldn't that be too selfish?"

"The person he loves in his heart should clearly be me. When we were on the Haidao, we were childhood sweethearts, and after transferring schools and meeting again, he fell for me at first sight, only later..."

Later, she was too willful, which was why Jiang Sinian became disheartened and ended up settling for a life with Jiang Yue.

In this life, as long as she didn't repeat those mistakes from her previous life, it would be fine.

"I won't be so petty anymore. He is a man who values relationships and loyalty. I will accompany him and treat Jiang Yue like my own sister; I absolutely won't be jealous."

Shen Yuan had spoken to this extent, and her posture was already very low.

She couldn't think of any other reason for Si Rong to disagree.

"You're dreaming."

Si Rong leaned down to look at her, "The opportunity of a Rebirth is very rare; it's a real pity to waste it."

"It is Sinian's freedom to choose who he wants to be with in this life, but it will not be you."

"Actually, there are many excellent men in the world, why must you fix your gaze on Sinian?" Si Rong tried to persuade her.

Shen Yuan laughed, "Auntie Si Rong, you're right. The world is big and there are many excellent people, but why did you choose Uncle Jiang Cheng in both your previous and current lives?"

"We are the same; once we set our sights on someone, we won't change."

Si Rong's expression slowly turned cold, "There is a long time ahead, let's just wait and see."

This son of hers really had a fate plagued by romantic tribulations.

But just like in the previous life, she would definitely protect both children well.

After Si Rong left, Li Xuan walked to her daughter's side, "What were you two whispering about for so long?"

"Mom, haven't you always wanted to know what happened in the previous life?"

Although she didn't have much contact with Li Xuan in her previous life, she was cared for by Shen Chi and Shen Yuan later on, so she understood some of the grievances and entanglements between Li Xuan and Si Rong when they were young.

Li Xuan was very pleasantly surprised; it seemed her daughter had been stimulated by Si Rong just now.

"Yes, is it the right time you mentioned now?"

"Mm, let's go home first," Shen Yuan held her hand, "I'm hungry."

She needed to calm her emotions.

Si Rong was truly impervious to soft or hard tactics. Since the soft approach didn't work, she would have to use the hard one.

Originally, she hadn't intended to tell Shen Lan and Li Xuan about the previous life, but since Si Rong was like this, she couldn't be blamed.

"What do you want to eat? Mom will make it for you."

Li Xuan went to the vegetable market to buy fish and shrimp, and also went to the grocery store to buy a roasted chicken.

At this moment, she was completely immersed in the anticipation of being about to know about the events of the previous life.

Even Shen Laopozi's jabbering while she was cooking couldn't affect her mood.

She only thought to herself that she would ask her daughter later when this annoying old woman died in the previous life.

Shen Yuan ate until her belly was full, and after the meal, she pulled her parents into the room.

"How did I live in the previous life?" Li Xuan asked hurriedly.

Perhaps her good fortune was still to come.

Shen Yuan:...

When she met Li Xuan, she was already a withered old woman.

"In the previous life, Dad married Auntie Si Rong," Shen Yuan said, "But they divorced later, and that was when you two got married."

Shen Lan's heart was greatly shaken, "What? Tell me in more detail."

Shen Yuan rolled her eyes silently in her heart; she didn't know the details either.

"After you married Auntie Si Rong, my brother and I were taken care of by Auntie Si Rong, and then Dad became a Deputy County Magistrate,"

Her gaze shifted from Shen Lan's ecstatic face to Li Xuan's, "Mom, you were a Dance Teacher at the Huaiyang Yishu Xueyuan."

This description made both Shen Lan and Li Xuan yearn for it.

Deputy County Magistrate? Shen Lan thought that must be very glorious, exactly as they had planned at the very beginning.

Originally, he could have slowly walked down that path, but unfortunately...

"And then?"

"A few years after you two divorced, you died," Shen Yuan continued.

Shen Lan:...

Died? How is that possible?

In her past life, Shen Yuan had only heard rumors about these two, "It was after the Si Family discovered your affair and you divorced Si Rong, then Si Rong remarried Uncle Jiang Cheng, and you, Dad, seemed to have been transferred to the factory to handle rotten eggs, and then you fell gravely ill."

Upon hearing Shen Lan's ending, Li Xuan felt some worry about her own fate in that past life, "Then, what about me?"

In truth, most of what was known about Li Xuan in the past life was what Bai Mo had seen herself; Aunt Shen Yuan had always been reluctant to bring up this mother.

It was only later that she learned from her uncle that Li Xuan, having been driven to a dead end, had taken her daughter to work in that kind of business.

"After Dad died, you remarried too, Mom, but then you remarried again, a few times it seems, and in the end, you died too."

Li Xuan:...

"Was it Si Rong who caused it?"

Shen Yuan:...

Remembering her purpose, she nodded, "Yes, Si Rong always hated you both, so after the divorce, she took revenge on you in every way possible, but I am telling you this because I want to tell you something more important."

Shen Lan and Li Xuan's expressions turned stern, "What is it?"
