Chapter 120: Sister, now that you have a sister-in-law, you don't want your brother anymore?

"Sister, how was my performance just now?"

Lu Xiu Bai looked through the door crack for a long time, determined that the liar Lu Manman had gone far away, and then ran back to his sister's courtyard.

"Not bad."

Shen Man nodded, giving her brother face, biting the bullet to praise him.

Jiang Ye on the side saw this and asked, deflecting a thousand catties with four ounces:

"Did you wash the bowls and chopsticks? I won't wash them for you."

"Aren't I here to wash them? Just now that liar was there, so I threw them in the pool, I'm going to wash them now~"

Lu Xiu Bai showed a look of pleasing, still the same sentence, can't offend the cook.

"Manman, pay attention to safety tomorrow, but if the other party is not right, take your own safety as the first consideration, don't worry about too much."

Pei Yan Ting also came over, and while speaking, handed her sister a folding knife.

Shen Man saw this folding knife, happily took it, "Thank you, sister-in-law, I will definitely protect myself well."

Swish, opened the folding knife, the blade was sharp, the knife body was small and exquisite, suitable for a novice like her who had no strength to truss a chicken.

Even Jiang Ye on the side couldn't help but narrow his eyes when he saw this folding knife.

"Thank you, sister-in-law, for parting with it."

This kind of knife wasn't on the market.

It probably wasn't passed down from the Pei family ancestors, was it.

"We are one family, don't talk about two families, our couple sponges off food every day, isn't brother-in-law also working hard?"

Pei Yan Ting waved her hand indifferently; her sister needed something to defend herself more than she did.

This folding knife was brought back from Switzerland by her great-grandfather, and she had always cherished it.

It was just that as her skills became better and better, others couldn't get close to her, so it had been idle and couldn't play a role.

Just now she thought about it and found it from the box.

Giving it to her sister for self-defense was the most appropriate.

"Sister-in-law is so good to me; in the future, if brother dares to bully you, I will stab a few holes in his stomach..."

Shen Man gestured like a fox pretending to be a tiger, and the object being gestured at, Lu Xiu Bai, felt completely unwell.

Sister, now that you have a sister-in-law, you don't want your brother anymore?

Listen, does this sound like anything?

"Good."

Pei Yan Ting laughed, laughing with curved eyebrows, inexplicably thinking of her cousin Pei Yao.

If that girl saw Shen Man, the two would definitely become better friends...

Such a relaxed and good mood vanished after she returned to the hospital office.

It turned out her cousin had sent her a letter, and after reading the thick letter, the smile on her face became ugly.

It's Lu Manman again!

This woman, haunting like a ghost!

She messed with her cousin, and now she's coming to mess with her sister-in-law!

According to her, the person who put the poisonous snake in her cousin's locker in the changing room was Lu Manman!

If you don't do anything wrong, you don't fear ghosts knocking on the door!

No wonder Lu Manman could come to the Sea Island with a proper job; it turns out she resigned!

According to her, she must have felt guilty, so she simply resigned!

Good, really too good!

"Bang."

In the office, a sound came out, scaring the little nurse who had just carried the fruit plate and wanted to send it over to slip away and change direction.

Doctor Pei hadn't been this angry for a long time, slip away~

In the guesthouse—

Lu Manman returned disheveled; she didn't know what was going on, but she was always restless on the way, either stepping on dog poop or being attacked by bird poop, unable to hide!

Finally, bearing the strange looks of passersby, she returned to the guesthouse in frustration.

"What's wrong with you, so smelly, what did you step on with your shoes? Ugh—"

Although the female comrade on duty now wasn't Wang Mingkui, thanks to Wang Mingkui, this person also knew Lu Manman's "glorious" deeds and was on guard against Lu Manman.

Lu Manman knew that head-on collision wouldn't work, so she begged pitifully:

"I accidentally stepped on something, I'll go back to the room to clean up, I'll come to mop the floor in a while."

The female comrade on duty covered her nose, seeing the other party's pitiful look, she didn't feel a shred of sympathy in her heart.

Just urged impatiently, "Hurry up, don't let others step on it, really troublesome!"

This kind of person is not worth her sympathy!

So what if she's pregnant, snatching someone's marriage with inglorious means, really shameless!

Lu Manman nodded; she couldn't stand her own state either, and fortunately Gu Tingchen didn't come; if the other party saw her so disheveled, the other party would definitely dislike her!

Back in the room emitting a foul stench, her tears couldn't stop falling.

Why was she reborn!

Her luxury car, big villa, gold bars, good life, all turned into bubbles!

Just like a dream, a rebirth directly knocked her back to her original shape!

At first, she thought rebirth was good, she became younger, her skin was delicate without wrinkles, she was the favorite of God, she started a new game, how perfect.

But reality gave her a hard slap; without the jade pendant space, Shen Man was no longer wooden and easy to control like in her previous life, and the relationship between her parents wasn't as good as in her previous life.

Her career wasn't as smooth as in her previous life.

Most importantly, Tingchen's attitude toward her had changed, which was really heartbreaking!

Jade pendant space, right, as long as she took back the jade pendant, she could still make a comeback!

Thinking of how she was aggrieved, acting low, coaxing Shen Man, promising to give all her savings to Shen Man, just to exchange for the other party's trust, she felt a pain in her heart.

There were more than five thousand yuan in the passbook, more than two thousand was the dowry her mother gave her, and more than five hundred was the salary from her years of work.

The other two thousand was the betrothal gift given by the Gu family, which she hadn't even warmed up yet and couldn't bear to spend...

Gritting her teeth, she only kept the train fare to the Capital and food expenses for herself, and all other tickets were stuck in the passbook.

Even if she spent it all, she must win Shen Man's trust tomorrow!

If you don't risk the child, you won't catch the wolf.

For the jade pendant space, she was going all out!

Capital—

Railway Bureau.

Gu Tingchen had just finished a meeting and was called by the bureau chief—

"Do you have time tonight? Bring your wife, and Yinyin, to come home for a simple meal."

This was a signal, Gu Tingchen understood, ripples rose in his heart, and he said steadily on the surface:

"Okay, but my wife recently went to visit relatives and is not at home, I can only bring my sister from home, please forgive me."

Bureau Chief Liu crossed his hands and explained with a gentle smile:

"Is that so? It doesn't matter, my daughter has been mentioning that Yinyin has helped her a lot recently, we don't have any other meaning, just want to invite you to come home for a simple meal."

"Mm, then I'll respectfully obey, see you tonight."

Gu Tingchen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and after confirming the time, he nodded slightly and left the conference room.

At the workstations outside, many secret gazes looked over, but he looked straight ahead, pretending not to see.

The water in the Capital's officialdom is deeper than in the Northeast.

One move affects the whole body.

If he wants his official career to be smooth and to keep the glory of the Gu family, he must constantly climb up.

He originally thought that by marrying into the Lu family, the Lu family would support his rise to the clouds and give him the foundation of the Lu family's connections, but he didn't expect to marry the wrong person...

It seems he has to take another path. ===== CHAPTER 121 =====
