Resolute Departure

Cheng Wennian was clearly the one who had proposed not registering the marriage first, yet he remained silent, not saying a single word.

Why? Because he was an indecisive person, and it was this very trait that had caused Jiang Rang to suffer for twenty years in her previous life.

Having said what needed to be said, Jiang Rang walked straight out. She hurried to catch the last bus before dark, wanting to visit her parents at the hospital.

Cheng Wennian's younger sister, Cheng Bailing, ran after her, trying to stop her. Bailing sweetly urged her to return to the Cheng family: "Sister Xiao Rang, I only recognize you as my sister-in-law. My brother must be possessed by a demon. You are so beautiful and gentle; if he doesn't want you, what kind of person does he want?"

Jiang Rang looked at Bailing's gentle, harmless face and felt disgusted. Both siblings relied on their appearance to deceive others. In her previous life, Cheng Bailing had said similar words, but Cheng Wennian's wedding to his white moonlight was also arranged by her.

Jiang Rang now no longer trusted anyone in the Cheng family. She said, "Keep those words for your new sister-in-law."

At this moment, Jiang Rang only wanted to earn money. After all, tomorrow she would ask her brother to bring back her dowry.

Jiang Rang went to the bus station and caught the last bus of the day back to Gu He County. The driver was Uncle Zhao, who always ran the fixed route from Gu He to Luo City and back.

There were a few women on the bus, some of whom Jiang Rang knew. Ye Hongyu, from the same village as Jiang Rang, smiled and patted the empty seat next to her. "Xiao Rang, come sit here."

Jiang Rang knew Ye Hongyu's personality well; she loved to gossip. So, she chose another seat across a small aisle from her.

Even so, Ye Hongyu didn't give up. Across the aisle, she still questioned Jiang Rang, "I heard Cheng Wennian is back. Why didn't he take you back to your parents' home?"
