Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat!

Afterwards, Jiang Li asked Lin Gao for a favor.

"As you said, I stole the wine my sister brewed and got them drunk. Now I assure you they can sleep through the night till morning. Where’s the stuff?"

Lin Gao readily pulled a metal object from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Li when no one was around.

"Be careful using it. It’s good for shooting birds, but if you hurt someone, you’d better watch out or I’ll pull your head off."

Jiang Li was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

"Brother, don’t worry! Tonight I’ll guard the gate. No one will disturb you!

Hehe, go in quickly, don’t make my sister wait."

Lin Gao had no patience to waste time with him, washed his face outside to dispel some of the alcohol smell, and strode inside.

The room was illuminated by red candles. On the bed, clearly visible from the doorway, lay quilts embroidered with mandarin ducks, necks intertwined. A girl sat at the bedside, her long hair draped over her shoulders, dressed in a red cotton garment, quietly watching him.

The flickering candlelight made Lin Gao’s eyes warm, and he walked over cautiously and sat down slowly, urgently and carefully gazing at Jiang Lai’s face.

"Why are you crying?"

Jiang Lai reached out to wipe the tears from the corner of his eyes.

She found it amusing.

Lin Gao remained expressionless, his gaze focused on her.

"I don’t know why, it feels like I’ve waited a long time for this day."

With that, Lin Gao carefully reached out and pulled Jiang Lai into his arms.

His shoulders were broad, exuding a warm scent, which Jiang Lai quite liked, so she quietly leaned against his shoulder, feeling his cautious yet restrained affection.

This feeling was wonderful.

"Jiang Lai, whether you believe it or not, from the moment I saw you, I wanted to spend my life with you."

Jiang Lai couldn’t help but laugh.

"What if I don’t agree?"

"I never thought about it."

Lin Gao’s trembling hands held Jiang Lai’s shoulders as he watched her, the apprehension in his eyes making Jiang Lai a bit helpless.

He was too humble, afraid to scare her away.

"Are you going to watch all night?"

"I’d willingly watch forever."

A mute expressing love, it sure was impactful.

Who doesn’t love hearing sweet talk? Jiang Lai looked into his eyes, then reached over to hook his neck, tilted her head, and kissed him.

"If you want to watch, take your time in the future."

There’s still important business to attend to.

In the latter half of the night, Lin Gao’s eyes reddened again.

It wasn’t his fault because Jiang Lai cried first.

He tenderly held back his feelings, continuously kissing away her tears, nervous and awkward.

"Why are you crying? I never noticed you cry so much before."

Jiang Lai spoke weakly.

Lin Gao’s sweat drops from his forehead fell on her. His voice was husky, deep, and extremely gentle.

"It feels like I’m dreaming."

Jiang Lai pinched him once, Lin Gao remained unfazed, emotions surging in his eyes.

He then leaned forward again.

"Then I won’t sleep tonight. If I don’t sleep, the dream won’t end."

Jiang Lai held him down.

"The days ahead are long. Ever heard of sustainable development? Sleep."

Lin Gao obediently looked at her, not entirely satisfied, yet still listening obediently.

The days that followed were peaceful and calm.

During this time, Little Buding reported to Jiang Lai about Shen Yan’s situation.

"You have a little sister now."

Shen Yan gave birth to a daughter.

Left waiting and waiting without a reply from the director, Shen Yan took her child to find him.

Only to learn that he had already gone to prison.

Shen Yan was instantly dumbfounded.

Followed by one misfortune after another.

Her beloved nephew went insane, her niece was sent away, and the Shen Family was extinct.

This news was as shocking to her as discovering that the child’s father wasn’t around after she gave birth.

Originally planning to live a good life in the city, she found herself without the promised comforts, instead gaining a crazy nephew to take care of.

"She’s now completely reaping the consequences, poor child."

"If your overflowing compassion wants to, then go shovel the manure at the entrance."

"Pah, cold-hearted scum woman."

If Jiang Lai had a friend, Little Buding would definitely label them as full of nonsense cold-hearted scum woman.

Finally, Shen Yan shamelessly went to find Jiang Hai again.

But her reputation was already ruined in that street, not waiting for Jiang Hai to intervene, the director’s wife directly beat her up, leaving her crying for her parents.

"Shen Yan left, taking her fool nephew with her, and abandoning her child."

"Oh."

"You guessed it?"

Jiang Lai was oddly calm.

"Is guessing even necessary? Where was the child dropped?"

"In the coal pile."

A brute.

Yet Jiang Lai smiled lightly.

"Being abandoned is good, rather than staying with her, the child would rather be abandoned."

After speaking, Jiang Lai called Jiang Li over.

"Go tell the widow at the alley entrance that a child was abandoned in the coal pile."

Jiang Li, hearing this, widened his eyes.

"Really?"

Regardless of its truth, he followed Jiang Lai’s instructions and promptly acted.

Sure enough, the widow, who lost her husband early and her son in middle age and lived alone, unhesitantly rescued the child.

The child grew up to be quite promising, caught the wave of the college entrance exam restoration, and immediately plunged into the frenzy, becoming one of the first group of college students, staying at the city’s Polytechnic University, and enjoying the benefits of eating state-provided grains.

Shen Yan heard about this from somewhere, came back crying and screaming to recognize her child, insisting that it was stolen by the widow, herself having searched desperately for years.

The young girl was no fool, she showed no kindness towards Shen Yan, even harshly stated that she had nothing to do with Shen Yan.

By now, Shen Yan was a shadow of her former self, skin and bones, unkempt hair, worse off than beggars on the street, clearly having suffered extensively.

By now she was abandoned by all, none of her children acknowledged her, and Jiang Hai hated her deeply.

She chose to abandon home and children to go to the countryside to have kids with another man. Now when she’s fallen to such a plight, no one pities her.

Shen Yan even thought about taking her nephew to find her niece, but after inquiries, she learned that Shen Yaoyao’s life was tougher than hers.

After being sent to the countryside, in exchange for food, Shen Yaoyao voluntarily stayed with a local man.

After having a child, upon hearing of the opportunity to return to the city, she immediately applied to return.

Her man clearly wouldn’t let her leave like that, and out of anger when she was resolute about leaving, broke her leg, ensuring she couldn’t walk out of the village for life.

In this world, there was someone who cared about her.

Jiang Shun voluntarily went to the countryside searching for her, but went to the wrong place, and the train took him directly to the country’s northernmost point, making it impossible to return home for a lifetime.

As for Zhang Shuci, after living for more than a decade in a pigpen, he became one of the village idiots.

Foolish and silly, he could clearly mention his identity but nothing more, always muttering about being the factory director. People mocked him for this.

Afterwards, Little Buding stopped bringing up their matters with Jiang Lai.

The era developed rapidly, but Jiang Lai eventually died the year before the twenty-first century, in the winter of ninety-nine, from illness.

After living most of his life with her, Lin Gao buried her, and soon after, passed away as well.
