Chapter 165 - 6 Shen Chi’s Plan_2
"But Liu Yuzhi miscalculated," Shen Chi said with a hint of smugness on his face, like a child who had just pulled off a prank. "She thought I would die quietly and quickly, yet here I am, still alive."
"By now, I need to settle accounts with Liu Yuzhi," Shen Chi went on. What he didn’t say was that even though he had already known he wasn’t an illegitimate child, he hadn’t planned on coming to the Capital. That was likely due to resentment and pride—even if General Han Kuang didn’t intentionally abandon him, the suffering he endured over the years was because of the other man, and he preferred to triumph on his own and then confront his estranged father with mockery.
But Wanwan... he couldn’t bring himself to tell Wanwan not to attend Capital University, nor did he want her to go to the Capital alone. Compared to his grudge against a father who was almost a stranger and that slight sting to his pride, his wife was naturally more important.
At this moment, however, Lin Xiaoguai was stunned. By now, she could confirm with one hundred percent certainty that Shen Chi, in his past life, had always thought he was an illegitimate child right up until she died. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have spent his whole life avoiding the Capital and she had never heard about him having any interaction with General Han Kuang from there.
Right, in his past life, General Han Kuang seemed to have died before she did. She couldn’t remember when exactly, but she knew it was in either ’85, ’86, or ’87.
"You and your brother... did you meet during that mission where you got shot in the leg?" Looking back, Lin Xiaoguai could only think of this event that was clearly different from his past life.
"How did you guess that?" Shen Chi was somewhat surprised.
"I just said it off the top of my head." Lin Xiaoguai looked down, her feelings mixed. She felt a sneaky joy knowing Shen Chi had been taken for a ride by a woman in his past life, but also felt indignation and... sympathy?
