Back to the 1980s: Becoming the Villain's Lucky Wife

Shen Yi was already fast asleep, a smile playing on his lips as he dreamed that Qin Jiao had already given him several children. He would never have guessed that in another room in the very same courtyard, Qin Jiao was lying in bed and talking about running away with his child one day.

But one thing was the same: everyone in the courtyard house slept very well that night.

It was a night of sweet dreams.

But where some found joy, others found only sorrow.

In the Shen family’s large house, the atmosphere was heavy. With both his ex-wife and son getting married tomorrow, Shen Zhengfeng’s emotions were in a tangled mess.

His son, Shen Yi, getting married meant he would have to let go of the clothing factory.

As for his ex-wife Du Liya remarrying... he had heard before that Du Liya went abroad for six months and found herself a younger boyfriend, but he hadn’t paid it any mind.

He thought Du Liya had just found someone at random to get over him.

’After all, that kid came from a well-off family and even had a business abroad. He had to be just toying with Liya. Who would have thought they would actually get married!’

This blow hit him even harder than his son Shen Yi’s marriage.

’A woman’s words are all lies! Liya claimed she loved me to death, and now she’s turning right around to marry someone else!’

Li Xiaomei was also very unhappy. With Shen Yi getting married, the clothing factory would be separated from them. That meant the money for her and her son, Xiao Feng, would be cut by more than half in an instant. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

’That was a huge factory with hundreds of workers! Gone just like that!’

Although Shen Zhengfeng had already planted people he could trust inside the factory, he could still stir up some trouble for a while, even after Shen Yi and Du Liya took over.

But no matter what, it wasn’t the same as holding it in his own hands, and that definitely didn’t sit well with him.

Meanwhile, in a nearby room, Old Mrs. Shen and Shen Xiaoya, mother and daughter, were also whispering to each other.

Old Mrs. Shen spat. "That Du Liya is so shameless, getting married on the same day as Xiao Yi. She just wants the whole world to know that our Zhengfeng doesn’t want her anymore."

Shen Xiaoya added, a hint of jealousy in her voice, "Isn’t that the truth? I heard that man is six years younger than Du Liya! Good heavens, that means he’s even younger than me!"

Du Liya was younger than Shen Zhengfeng, making her only four years older than her sister-in-law, Shen Xiaoya. After her divorce, Shen Xiaoya had never found another suitable partner. She found them either too poor for her taste or, if they were wealthy, far too old. One suitor had been more than ten years older than her own brother, Shen Zhengfeng. Besides, living here meant she never had to worry about her meals or expenses, so Shen Xiaoya simply hadn’t remarried.

Deep down, she still wanted a family of her own, but her standards were just a little too high, which was why she remained single.

But Old Mrs. Shen said, "With Du Liya’s foul temper, how could that kid possibly put up with her? If you ask me, there must be something wrong with him. Maybe he’s infertile, or maybe he’s hideous. Otherwise, why would he be interested in a divorced woman like Du Liya?"

Shen Xiaoya felt a little uncomfortable hearing this, since she was also divorced.

Still, she agreed with her mother. ’That man must have something wrong with him. Otherwise, why would he go for Du Liya?’

Shen Xiaoya said, "Mom, let’s go to the wedding banquet early tomorrow, then. We have to be there to see Du Liya make a fool of herself!"

"Deal!"

While the mother-daughter duo plotted to watch Du Liya’s downfall, Shen Zhengfeng was stewing over his ex-wife’s remarriage, and Li Xiaomei was fuming about losing the factory. Meanwhile, Shen Feng lay on the single bed in his room, staring blankly at the white ceiling.

’Tomorrow, Qin Jiao is going to marry Shen Yi!’

’Why does my heart ache so much?’
