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

"Lin Zhuozhong and Lin Manzhi."

"What?"

Xu Wantang laughed so hard she rolled around on the bed.

"Then... what about Brother Gu Feng?"

"I just gave him an injection. He should still be unconscious. He should be fine by dawn."

Is it dawn?

Xu Wantang then realized that she had been out all day.

"Oh no, Cen Shichuan is definitely going to be suspicious again."

"No, he's tied up with Xu Chuxue right now and doesn't have time to look for you," Cen Yuan said unhappily.

"Your eyes and ears are everywhere."

"Sleep a little longer, then you'll be watching the show." Cen Yuan pulled the blanket over himself.

"Um."

Xu Wantang turned over and fell asleep.

She was woken up by Cen Yuan just as dawn broke.

"Check your phone."

"oh."

She stretched and opened her phone, where she saw photos of Lin Zhuozhong and Lin Manzhi.

Still a bedroom photo.

Judging from the angle, it was probably taken from outside the window.

"Second brother, you took this picture too clearly, doesn't it look too fake?"

"If things aren't clear enough when dealing with Cen Shichuan, he'll try every trick in the book to cheat. Only when things are clear enough will he lose his composure."

"What if they trace it back to you?" Xu Wantang asked with some concern.

"It doesn't matter if they find out, after all, I didn't wrong them. He's not in the mood to investigate me right now," Cen Yuan said calmly. "By the way, Gu Feng is awake. Should we go see him?"

Xu Wantang, no longer sleepy, nodded.

She wanted to confirm what had happened back then.

After washing up, Xu Wantang followed Cen Yuan to the private room downstairs.

Although Gu Feng had changed his clothes, he was in a very bad mood when he saw Xu Wantang and Cen Yuan standing together.

I instantly understood what was going on.

He gave a wry smile: "This is truly an unexpected turn of events."

Xu Wantang cut to the chase: "Brother Gu Feng, what exactly happened at the engagement banquet?"

"With Cen Yuan here, they must have investigated quite thoroughly."

"Brother Gu Feng, although I can't accept it, I know you have your reasons. Can you explain them to me?" Xu Wantang looked at Gu Feng earnestly.

Gu Feng was stunned. He hadn't expected that Xu Wantang would still give him another chance after he had schemed against her.

He took a deep breath: "It's nothing new that the old man favors the third branch of the family, but you probably don't know just how much they favor them."

"What do you mean?"

"Do you remember how the eldest son and father of the Cen family died?"

"I saw online that he fell into the sea while sea fishing and because he wasn't rescued in time, so..." Xu Wantang recalled.

Cen Yuan said thoughtfully, "My mother was sick when they had the accident, so I don't know the specifics, but it was definitely strange."

Gu Feng glanced at Cen Yuan, but didn't reply after learning the reason for his mother's illness.

"Actually, my mother was supposed to go out to sea that day, but she had an upset stomach from eating something bad that morning and stayed at the hotel because of the stomach pain. But she was the one who arranged the yacht trip, and she felt very guilty and couldn't let it go, so she kept investigating the whole thing."

"Brother Gu Feng, are you saying that there's something fishy about the deaths of the eldest young master and his son?" Xu Wantang choked on her words.

"Yes, my mother found the watch that my eldest brother always carries, in the bait box. It recorded the sounds of fighting, and the other side mentioned the third young master's father."

"Then why didn't you tell the Cen family?" Xu Wantang asked.

Cen Yuan said coldly, "Do you see any bad things that have been spread about Cen Shichuan's family?"

Xu Wantang shook her head.

After having a precognitive dream, she didn't dare to confront Cen Shichuan on the spot because the third wife's reputation was too good.

Especially Cen Shichuan.

Cen Yuan's face grew even darker: "You have evidence. Even if you can't find a way, you shouldn't have used Wan Tang."

"Yes, the stupidest and most regrettable thing I've ever done in my life was using Wan Tang. I never expected that Cen Shichuan would see through our plan and even turn the tables on us. Later, I heard that you married Cen Shichuan as you wished, and I persuaded my mother to leave Beijing."

It turned out to be the case.

No wonder Gu Feng and his first wife didn't return to Beijing for three years in the dream.

Gu Feng thought that letting her marry Cen Shichuan would be a way of compensating her.

Xu Wantang asked, "Then why have you come back now?"

Gu Feng lowered his head: "I saw the news. I just learned that you're not happy at all about marrying Cen Shichuan, and my mother's health is getting worse, so I wanted to come back and take another gamble. Now it seems..."

He looked at Cen Yuan: "I'm late."

"Brother Gu Feng, what are you planning to do this time? You're actually taking action yourself?"

"I wanted to win you back, but Mom and I had a backup plan. We fabricated some evidence, all pointing to Lin Manzhi, so that we could also pin the whole engagement party on her. This way, you could use this opportunity to clear your name, leave Cen Shichuan, and the reputation of the third branch of the family would never be good again."

Gu Feng looked at Xu Wantang with guilt.

Xu Wantang didn't know what to say for a moment.

While she was still in a daze, Gu Feng was punched directly into the wall.

"You know the whole story, which is why you're willing to accept her, but have you thought about her? First Cen Shichuan, then with you, how good will her reputation be?"

Cen Yuan grabbed Gu Feng and pinched him.

This was the first time Xu Wantang had ever seen him so irritable, so she quickly stepped forward.

"Second brother, don't do anything reckless."

"You want to help him?" Cen Yuan's eyes grew even colder.

"No, I'm worried that you're making too much noise. There are paparazzi everywhere upstairs and downstairs now." Xu Wantang was concerned that it would affect Cen Yuanqing's reputation.

Gu Feng, struggling to breathe, gritted his teeth and said, "And what about you? Cen Yuan, I'm just an adopted son, but you're the second young master of the Cen family, Cen Shichuan's rightful second brother. What kind of relationship do you have with your sister-in-law who's still married to you?"

Cen Yuan released Gu Feng, wiped his hands, and said, "Who said she's my sister-in-law?"

"She married Cen Shichuan; she is Cen Shichuan's wife," Gu Feng emphasized.

"She is not."

Cen Yuan's expression suggested he was about to beat Gu Feng up again.

Xu Wantang quickly raised her hand: "It's a long story, let's talk about what to do next first."

Gu Feng took a deep breath, coughed a few times, and walked up to Xu Wantang.

"Wantang, I'm sorry. I was too presumptuous back then. I thought that would fulfill your unrequited love, help my mother get revenge, and ruin the reputation of the third branch of the family. I'm sorry to you."

"Brother Gu Feng, I will not forgive you, but I think we can cooperate from now on."

Xu Wantang knew that even if she killed Gu Feng, what was going to happen would have already happened.

It would be better to unite the two families to deal with Cen Shichuan's family.

Gu Feng's face paled slightly, but he still nodded.

As if he had just thought of something, he immediately said, "Wantang, I deliberately changed the dosage of the medicine that night, so Cen Shichuan couldn't do anything to you."

"I already know," Xu Wantang replied.

"Oh right, and your sister too. Later I realized something was wrong. Your sister's departure was too coincidental. She probably knew about our plan, but the car accident really wasn't ours."

"I understand."

"you……"

Gu Feng looked at Xu Wantang and Cen Yuan in surprise, and suddenly realized that no matter what he did, he could not compare to Cen Yuan.
