Chapter 10: One Door Apart
Back home, when the villagers heard that the Mu Family had a son, many came to offer their congratulations. However, given Jiang Xue’s past, those people only congratulated them from the courtyard, not daring to enter the room to see the child.
Since others didn’t enter the room, Jiang Xue felt at ease. After watching the baby fall asleep, she began to take in her surroundings and examine the room she lived in.
This was her and Mu Qiancheng’s bridal room, which in her previous life she never seriously looked at. Because she didn’t love Mu Qiancheng, she didn’t care about him or anything related to him.
But today, when she took the time to really look, she realized how deeply Mu Qiancheng cared for her.
This room was almost entirely decorated according to her preferences, arranged like her maiden room back home. Everywhere was a series of pink hues, and even the wallpaper was exactly the same few posters of "Princess Pearl" that were hung in her old room.
Seeing Mu Qiancheng’s attentiveness, Jiang Xue felt guilty again. She deeply questioned whether she was blind in her previous life, for how could she not see Mu Qiancheng’s goodness, or recognize his love for her?
Thinking back to her past self, who was nothing but troublesome, disrupting not only the peace of the Mu Family but also wrecking both herself and Mu Qiancheng, Jiang Xue desperately wished to slap herself.
In her past life, she was truly a fool.
Fortunately, heaven gave her a chance to live again, giving her the opportunity to make amends. In this life, she was determined to open her eyes, treat those who were good to her well, and ruthlessly deal with those who wished her harm.
Just as she was thinking this, the courtyard gate sounded, and then she heard her father-in-law’s excited voice, "Qiancheng, you’re back!"
"Dad, I’m back!" The familiar voice reached Jiang Xue’s ears, making her involuntarily tense up.
