Song Nuanyi gritted her teeth and turned on her phone. She stared at the name on the screen and smiled. She was not going to let him go. Everyone in the Cao family would pay the price.

She had been married into the Cao family for 25 years. She had been framed, poisoned, and tortured. She was going to make them pay, one by one.

She tidied up and walked out of the room. Elder Song had disappeared from the living room. When she walked out of the door, she saw a black limousine parked at the door. Cao Yuhan did not get out of the car either. He sat in the car and waited for her.

Every time they met, he always looked so high and mighty. Only she foolishly thought that this was his personality. Until one day, she saw how gentle and considerate he was to that man, only then did she understand that he had never once loved her. He loved that man, and now she could see it in a glance.

Thinking of what he said before she died, she wanted to kill him. They were truly in love, but she had never thought of interfering in their love. He was the one who lied to her, and he was the one who proposed to her. Why was it her fault in the end?

She held back her emotions and knocked on the car window. When the window rolled down, Song Nuanyi did not bend down and wait for him to speak. Instead, she took a step back. “What’s the matter?”

Cao Yuhan frowned. He could not see her from this distance. He could only get out of the car and come to her. “I heard that you lost your engagement ring. I found it and brought it to you.”

As he spoke, he took out a ring and handed it to her.

Yesterday’s incident had already spread throughout Alberto City. the rumor that Miss Song had thrown away her engagement ring and was suspected of breaking off the engagement had caused the Cao family to panic. They had found Song Nuanyi first because she was easier to please. It was because her good reputation could help the Cao family maintain their face.

Furthermore, the Song family still had some influence in Alberto City that could help the Cao family. With all these factors added together, the Cao family had deemed Song Nuanyi to be the most suitable daughter-in-law.

As soon as this rumor was spread, the Cao family immediately chased Cao Yuhan out and asked him to investigate Song Nuanyi’s background.

Song Nuanyi looked at the impatient Cao Yuhan. The ring in his hand was exactly the same as her engagement ring, but she knew it was not that one. She had already destroyed the original ring.

Seeing that she was taking so long to take the ring, Cao Yuhan frowned and said, “Are you blaming me for not waiting for you to leave yesterday? I left early because I had something to do with the company. You must become the mistress of the Cao family in the future. You can’t be so willful.”

The moment he opened his mouth to teach her a lesson, Song Nuanyi suddenly asked, “What happened at the company?”

Cao Yuhan was stunned. He did not understand what she meant.

“I asked what happened at the company yesterday?” she repeated again, waiting for an answer.

Cao Yuhan did not expect her to ask in such detail. It was only an excuse that he came up with. He looked at her suspiciously. She had never been like this before. Every time he casually said something, she would be fooled.

When the two of them were in a stalemate, Song Nuanyi suddenly smiled and returned to her usual gentleness. She said, “I was just worried about you. I didn’t see you yesterday and thought something had happened to you.”

After saying that, she took the ring from his hand and smiled. “Thank you for finding the ring from the water and giving it to me.”

Her words were gentle, but they still made Cao Yuhan feel a little uncomfortable.

Song Nuanyi asked again, “We’re getting married tomorrow. Are you happy?”

Cao Yuhan was thinking about another man. A hint of struggle flashed across her eyes. Then, he said faintly, “I’m happy.”

Song Nuanyi smiled and laughed out loud.

Cao Yuhan frowned in confusion, but she said, “I’m happy too. You’ll be even happier tomorrow.”

Her eyes were filled with mockery. That was not what he had said in her previous life. He told her that she had taken over that man’s position. Well then, she would return it to him tomorrow. She wanted to see if they could be happy together without her participation.

Cao Yuhan felt uncomfortable under her gaze. He hurriedly said that he had something else to do and left.

Song Nuanyi watched him leave, her eyes filled with hatred and joy. She was the one in the leading position in this life. Tomorrow was just the beginning.

However, Wu Chenjin was watching this scene in the dark, and all he saw was Song Nuanyi’s look of reluctance to part with her lover.
