Chapter 136 Reborn Scheming Woman from the New Era × Husband in an Arranged MarriageEducated YouthCo

Duran understood and withdrew his supernatural powers. "By the way, Xiangxiang, I have something to give you."

After saying that, he got up in a daze, called Du Xiang away, and secretly pulled her into the bedroom, glancing cautiously outside.

Du Xiang watched her act crazy with a calm expression.

Duran turned her head, smiled ingratiatingly, as if to say, "Sister, you're my confidante," and lowered her voice.

“What do you think? I think it’s fine to get a divorce. Our family is well-off now, and you’re going to become a teacher at that university. Although Shi An has a very powerful background now, think about his whole family. What if he comes back to you one day? Besides, he’s older than you and less educated. You’re not a good match. It’s better to get a divorce sooner rather than later.”

As he spoke, he patted Du Xiang's hand, revealing his snobbish nature.

Du Xiang blinked. "So, Second Sister, you're advising me to abandon my husband who's been through thick and thin with me?"

Du Xiang was heartbroken and incredulous.

Duran dropped her fawning expression and rolled her eyes at her.

They both know each other perfectly well, so what are they pretending for?

At this moment, Shi An, who was sitting at the dining table outside being scrutinized by Yuan Yuan and Du Dani, was unaware that he was a wife who had shared hardship with his husband.

At his current level, only after entering the Du family does he feel this uneasy tension.

Du Lan asked Du Xiang about her thoughts in a cryptic manner, mainly trying to figure out her attitude towards Shi An.

Du Xiang didn't have any particular thoughts. "I don't have any plans for that yet. My older sister would be too nagging if I came back, and Shi An is usually quiet and perceptive. Compared to her, I'm quite comfortable staying over there."

Du Lan felt a little regretful after hearing this, feeling sorry for her promising intellectual sister who had married a roughneck.

Of course, Shi An is unaware that he is perceived this way by Sister Du Xiang, and this is how the earliest form of educational discrimination was born.

The two went out shortly afterward, and Shi An finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Du Xiang.

After dinner, Du Xiang was pulled aside by Du Dani for a chat, receiving a lot of advice and instructions. Du Dani filled all the bags with all sorts of things, big and small, and then reluctantly told her to come home for dinner often.

Du Xiang hugged her dear older sister reluctantly. Du Lan watched her perform effortlessly with a cold face, wondering who had complained about being naughty before.

Du Xiang looked at her second sister's sour face and felt a little aggrieved, which was very obvious. Du Dani turned around and said a few words to Du Lan.

Another happy family!

That night, Du Xiang was fiddling with her pile of new books on the bed when Shi An went over and gently hugged her.

She had a new idea: knowledge is always interconnected, and a person who develops in multiple areas is truly living an extraordinary life.

Du Xiang's idea is that after she passes away, she will occupy a few pages in the history book. Just thinking about it will make her wake up laughing from her grave and lift the coffin lid.

Seeing her close the book, Shi An put it away for her on the bedside table.

Since Du Xiang returned, he had noticed that her mind was elsewhere, and she seemed somewhat absent-minded, like an old married couple.

Shi An, unusually, hugged her and rubbed his head against her shoulder.

What he wanted was still a biased and exclusive relationship.

Du Xiang noticed that he was in a low mood, so she raised her hand and patted him lightly on the back. "What's wrong?"

Shi An didn't get up, but quietly held her.

After a long pause, he said, "How about we just be the two of us from now on? Let's not have any children."

His words came as a surprise to Du Xiangxin. Perhaps he had taken Du Lan's words to heart today, or perhaps it was for some other reason. Who knows?

She had originally planned to talk to Shi An about this, but now that things were stable, she was afraid he would think he was capable again and could have a happy family of three. If that were the case, Du Xiang would have to get a divorce.

It's good that he brought it up himself now.

Du Xiang replied softly, "Okay."

With a successful career and a happy family, Du Xiang has achieved all the ideals of life before she even turned thirty. It has to be said, she's quite remarkable in this life.

If she wants her family to be happy, she can't just do nothing; she has to at least use her words, right?

Noticing that Shi An tightened his grip on her, Du Xiang sighed, "Do you...do you feel like I'm neglecting you?"

Shi An paused for a moment, then said, "It's alright."

He said it was alright, so it was alright. Du Xiang didn't press him further. She believed him, showing the trust between husband and wife and being very considerate.

Xu Jiushian added, "A little."

Du Xiang gently nudged him, and Shi An let go, gazing at her quietly.

Du Xiang looked apologetic and, mimicking how Shi An had always comforted her, looked up and kissed his forehead.

"We both have too many responsibilities on our shoulders, and there are many things we can't control. If... if one day you want to get a divorce and remarry, to find someone who cares about you, I won't blame you."

Of course she wouldn't blame him, as long as he was prepared to be condemned by everyone.

There will be angels...and many people will blame him on her behalf.

Even if she was reborn, even if she fulfilled part of her obsession, even if she fought such a beautiful battle to turn her life around, Du Xiang is still a heartless person.

Moreover, perhaps due to her past life, she is extremely obsessed with her reputation in this life. If it were her past life, as long as she could continue to live a comfortable life, a peaceful separation would not be out of the question. But she cannot do that in this life. Precisely because it is a second chance, she does not want any aspect of her life to be criticized. Not devising a plan to lose her husband in order to establish a reputation for her is already one of the few acts of kindness she has shown.

Du Xiang has read books and received an education in this life, and has seen a wider world than in her previous life. Of course, she knows that there is a problem with her mentality. She thought about whether she should adjust it. After thinking about it carefully, she realized that she had worked so hard, so what problem could she have?

Besides, that's rebirth, right? How could there not be some aftereffects? Anyway, it's definitely not my fault. If I do something wrong in the future, it will definitely be because Shi An is not mature enough.

Shi An immediately withdrew his affected manner and gently pressed his forehead against hers, "Don't talk nonsense, you're the only one I'll ever love."

Du Xiang's words undoubtedly made his heart sink; she could even push him away.

Shi An felt a sharp pang of sadness and hugged the person tightly, giving them a kiss.

Suddenly, he said, "All these years, have I never told you that I like you?"

Du Xiang frowned and pondered for a while, but to no avail.

Shi An said earnestly, "I like you. I like you a lot."

Their marriage was too hasty; they didn't even go through the dating process, and somehow they've gotten to where they are today, almost ten years in total.

At the beginning of their marriage, Du Xiang was still very dependent on him and spoke too frankly and directly. She didn't know that while he appeared calm on the surface, he was always responding in his heart. His feelings were the same as hers, and perhaps even more satisfied and happy than hers.

But what kind of response would it be if I kept it to myself and didn't let her know?

Looking back, he always felt he owed her a lot, starting from when he agreed to marry her to his family. He gave her a husband whose life he didn't know and who she had to worry about all the time. He didn't handle the Shi family's affairs well at first, and later he never had much time to spend with her.

Perhaps even the heavens couldn't bear to see it anymore. Ever since she started school, she became the one with no time for him, while he became the one who constantly thought about her but could never see her.

Their timelines are always out of sync, but fortunately, they have a long life ahead of them. As long as she moves forward, he will always be there for her whenever she looks back.
