After her ninth miscarriage, she finally let her scumbag husband and her beloved get together.

Chapter 133 The Girl Was Ignorant

Cen Yuan opened the cabinet and took out a new bed sheet.

"You've told others that you...like Cen Shichuan?"

He paused as he unfolded the bed sheet, and his expression darkened.

It seems they didn't really want to say those words.

Xu Wantang was so tired that her whole body ached, and she nestled coquettishly on the single sofa.

"No, given the Xu family's attitude towards me, would I dare say anything?"

"And what about Cen Shichuan?" Cen Yuan asked in return.

"What?" Su Wantang put a cushion under her lower back, stunned for a moment, "Cen Shichuan knows I have a crush on him? But he only found out about my crush on him after those candid photos of me were discovered."

Wow.

The new bed sheet is torn.

Xu Wantang was startled, looking at the man's gloomy face in front of her.

"Taking photos secretly, it's really hard to guess what's on a young girl's mind."

"No, no, what girlish thoughts? It's just that girls are immature!"

Xu Wantang stared longingly at Cen Yuan.

"..."

Cen Yuan didn't speak, but turned around and grabbed a new bed sheet.

At this rate, I won't have any sheets to sleep on tonight.

Xu Wantang quickly got up and hugged Cen Yuan from behind.

"Second brother, my back and legs are so sore. Look, my back is all red from being pinched."

A warm breeze brushed past Cen Yuan's ear as he lightly patted the hand on his waist: "I'll check it later. If it's not red, I'll keep my word."

"Wait a minute, shouldn't you be spoiling me at this point in the TV series?"

"Then I'll pamper you even more later."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man's body tensed up.

Xu Wantang knew he had misunderstood, so she quickly let go of him: "Getting back to the point, no one knows I like Cen Shichuan. I still said a lot of words of blessing when he and Xu Chuxue got engaged."

"Do you still think it's a coincidence that Cen Shichuan was drugged at the engagement party? Cen Shichuan was drugged, and you, the woman who secretly loves him, just happened to be there. Then your sister found out, and then there was the car accident. Immediately afterwards, the photos you secretly took of him were all over the place. The whole thing didn't give you any chance to breathe."

Cen Yuan's analysis was something Xu Wantang had thought about many times after having the precognitive dream.

But upon closer examination, many things seem wrong.

Xu Wantang sat on the edge of the bed, putting on a pillowcase: "Second Brother, I've thought about what you said, but the engagement banquet and the car accident just don't make sense. If it was all Third Young Master's scheme, what does he really want? The engagement banquet failed, he injured his leg, my sister lost her status and her child, and most importantly, who will clean up the mess?"

"you."

Cen Yuan turned his head and tapped Xu Wantang's head.

"..."

Xu Wantang only had a vague understanding and didn't say anything.

Cen Yuan shook the blanket: "You've always thought that the drugging at the engagement party and the car accident were both Cen Shichuan's schemes, but what if we separate the two events?"

"You mean drugging the engagement party wasn't Cen Shichuan's plan? No wonder I couldn't understand the expressions on Cen Shichuan and Xu Chuxue's faces at the engagement party that day."

"Just because it wasn't his plan doesn't mean he was unaware of it," Cen Yuan continued.

"..."

Xu Wantang stood there stunned; she had never imagined this angle.

Cen Yuan said, "Your secret crush and the secretly taken photos would only be known to people who know you well. Besides, no matter how well you hide it, can you really fool a smart person like Cen Shichuan?"

"I..." Xu Wantang bit her lip, "Second Brother, are you scolding me?"

She had previously boasted about her acting skills, which had fooled Cen Yuan.

Only now do I realize it was all a one-man show.

But Cen Yuan is right. She had liked Cen Shichuan since she was a teenager. Even if Cen Shichuan still treated her like a little sister, it was impossible for her to be completely indifferent.

Unless he's pretending to be stupid.

In addition, he became increasingly impatient with himself and was certainly unwilling to break the ice.

Seeing that she seemed lost in thought, Cen Yuan didn't say anything, but simply pulled her to lean against the pillow.

Xu Wantang frowned: "So these are actually two separate things. Someone was plotting against me and Cen Shichuan, and then... a car accident? That doesn't quite make sense either."

"You don't understand why you think Cen Shichuan, such a selfish person, would never harm himself and his child. But car accidents are uncontrollable; a slight mistake could result in a fatal crash."

"In other words, Cen Shichuan may have accidentally included himself and Xu Chuxue in his scheme to stage a car accident. He originally intended to fake being disabled, but he didn't expect to actually be disabled. It's a pity that he was only disabled for a few months, which is too good for him."

Xu Wantang was indignant.

"If he could plan a car accident, it means the best medical team is already waiting, and he won't let himself really get hurt," Cen Yuan said.

That makes sense now.

No, there's one more thing.

"Second Brother, what do you mean by them using me to quell the whole thing?"

"You know perfectly well that when Cen Shichuan and your sister are mentioned now, you're the one being criticized, while their reputations are entirely ruined. If you hadn't tricked Xu Chuxue into losing her identity, people would have applauded her even if she came back from the dead. As for Cen Shichuan... he's got all the reputation he wanted. Who even remembers the mistakes he made? Even if I come back, he's not threatened."

Cen Yuan's words awakened Xu Wantang.

Just as Cen Yuan had said, the engagement banquet was merely a prelude.

She sat up straight and raised her hand to ponder: "In the end, it's all because Cen Shichuan made a big mistake, and he's worried that you'll come back and replace him, so he's schemed so much and used me to win people's hearts."

"..."

Cen Yuan frowned slightly, but remained silent.

Upon hearing no response, Xu Wantang looked up and asked, "Second Brother, why aren't you saying anything?"

"I was thinking, if only I hadn't been in such a hurry to get down the mountain..."

Xu Wantang covered his mouth: "Is this a romance drama? You're already starting to repent. Anyway, I've figured it out. If I'm not happy, nobody else should be happy either. Otherwise, would I have gone to the trouble of pursuing you in the first place?"

Cen Yuan pulled her hand down: "Then think carefully, who else could possibly know that you like Cen Shichuan?"

"I...I can't remember. I don't have many close friends. Besides, I wasn't on guard at all back then. If someone was nice to me, I might accidentally let it slip."

Xu Wantang covered her face, feeling that she deserved to be deceived in the past.

Cen Yuan glanced at the time and immediately turned off the lights.

"Let's not think about it anymore. In this situation, it's not us who can't sit still, it's Cen Shichuan and that person in the shadows."

That's all.

Xu Wantang was pulled into a strong embrace.

She shifted slightly: "Is it really okay if I don't go back today?"

"This is your home, where do you want to go back to?"

"Huh? This?"

"Otherwise, why did I call you here?"

"...I'm not dreaming..."

Xu Wantang fell asleep while talking.

I'm a little tired, but also a little happy.
