Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother

This family no longer looked like a home. Keeping the family photos was just a form of consolation.

Beauty Wu’s impression of her aunt was already very vague. Since Dongli Shenghua liked her so much, she would do him a favor and give her photos to him.

Dongli Shenghua did not refuse. “Thank you.”

He took down the pictures almost reverently, packed them in a bag, and planned to take them.

Beauty Wu ignored them. Her body was really weak. After taking the cold medicine, she kept wanting to sleep, so she went straight to her room to sleep.

She woke up again. The sky was dark.

Beauty Wu thought that it was the next morning and quickly got out of bed. She washed up and changed her clothes. After doing everything, she picked up her phone and saw that the time was actually 5.48pm.

So it was already the afternoon.

She took her phone and sat on the sofa in a daze.

She was already awake and would not sleep again.

Beauty Wu held her phone and opened her WeChat conversation with Wei Shuyi. After thinking about it, she wanted to nag at him.

Wei Shuyi woke up in the morning and took out his phone to look at the time. Seeing that it was only six in a few minutes, he was no longer in a hurry. He subconsciously opened WeChat and saw Beauty Wu’s dialog box. He opened the dialog box and saw that the other party was typing on the screen.

Wei Shuyi was stunned.

She wanted to say something to him.

He stared at screen and did not look away, afraid that he would miss her message.

In the end, the other party typed for more than a minute. However, he saw that she stopped typing and he did not receive any news from Beauty Wu.

He fell silent.

Didn’t she have something to say to him?

Wei Shuyi turned on his phone and saw Beauty Wu at his house.

Didn’t she go to work?

Was she resting or feeling unwell?

Wei Shuyi felt that he was asking for a beating. She didn’t want him anymore, so why was he still concerned about her?

Wei Shuyi put down his phone and lifted the blanket to wash his face with cold water.

The next day, Beauty Wu’s body had already mostly recovered. She arrived at Dongli Shenghua’s house and had just walked out of the garage when she was stopped by Dongli Ao halfway.

Beauty Wu stopped in her tracks and looked down at the little child in front of her. The sunlight revealed her doubtful look.

“What are you doing?”

Dongli Ao looked up at her and asked, “Are you my cousin?”

“Yeah.”

“Daddy said that a cousin can’t be my mother.”

“Right.”

“Then… Then can you play with me often in the future?” When Dongli Ao asked this question, his expression was especially arrogant, as if he was looking down on someone. His tone was also quite rash, but Beauty Wu could tell that he was being careful.

Her heart softened. She lowered her head and raised her hand to place it on Dongli Ao’s head. She patted it gently and said, “I’m your sister. Xiao Ao is my only family now. Of course I’ll play with you.”

Yes, after she acknowledged that Cheng Cheng had passed away, Dongli Ao was Beauty Wu’s only relative.

Dongli Ao smiled reservedly.

“That’s good.”

He turned around and ran into the house.

Beauty Wu squatted on the spot and thought about what she had just said. She was thinking about Dongli Shenghua.

Was he planning to give up on her, or was he playing hard to get again?

After breakfast with the father and son, they first sent Dongli Ao to school before driving to the company.

On the way, Dongli Shenghua kept looking out of the window, as did Beauty Wu.

She heard Dongli Shenghua say, “I’ve troubled you recently.”

There was only him, himself, and Old Chen in the car.

These words were most likely directed at her.

Beauty Wu turned around and glanced at Dongli Shenghua.

He seemed to sense something and turned around to meet Beauty Wu’s gaze. There was a hint of apology in Dongli Shenghua’s eyes. He said, “You’re right. I just want to transfer my guilt and longing for your aunt to you.”

“You’re not her after all.”

Dongli Shenghua had also thought it through. There was no need to tie an empty shell similar to Nabing to his side.

Beauty Wu was a little cautious. She did not believe Dongli Shenghua’s words. She felt that this person’s words could not be trusted.

After that, Dongli Shenghua really did not harass her anymore.

However, Beauty Wu still did not dare to let her guard down.

One day in mid-March, Dongli Shenghua invited Beauty Wu to go on a spring trip with him and his son. Beauty Wu wanted to reject him, but Dongli Ao snatched his phone and said to her, “Sister Beauty, come. We bought a barbecue rack. We can go to the river to fish and barbecue ourselves.”

“…Okay.”

Beauty Wu changed into a light spring outfit and rode her motorcycle to their spring outing.

It was on a grassland in the middle of Bin River.

Many people who came to fish and barbecue placed barbecue racks along the river.

They had caught a total of four fishes. They were not big, and the largest was only six to seven ounces. However, they felt a sense of accomplishment because they had fished the fish themselves. Dongli Shenghua took the initiative to kill the fish. Dongli Ao’s eyes lit up when he saw a few children playing with a few tadpoles in a mineral water bottle.

“Wow, frog tadpoles!”

Beauty Wu corrected Dongli Ao. “It’s only March. The tadpoles in this season are usually toad tadpoles. The frog tadpoles will only come in May.”

“Then I want them too.”

Beauty Wu found a mineral water bottle and handed it to Dongli Ao.

Dongli Ao jogged to the river to pretend to be a tadpole. Beauty Wu was worried that something would happen to him, so she followed behind him and looked at him carefully.

When Dongli Ao stood up, his body fell forward. Fortunately, Beauty Wu was prepared and quickly grabbed him. “Be careful. What if you really fall into the water!”

“My daddy will save me.” Dongli Ao was especially arrogant.

Beauty Wu said, “Your father is not good at swimming. He won’t save you.”

“Who said that my daddy’s swimming skills are bad?” Dongli Ao pursed his lips and looked at Beauty Wu in disdain. As he shook the tadpole bottle in his hand, he said to the Wu family, “My daddy knows how to swim. When he was young, he even swam across the Binjiang River!”

“Just continue bragging.”

“It’s true. Daddy competed with a few uncles, but he was the champion.”

Children would not lie about such things.

Seeing that he was serious, the smile on Beauty Wu’s face gradually disappeared, and a chill ran down her spine…

Dongli Shenghua knew how to swim! He was also very good at swimming!

Therefore, last year in the Maldives, Pan Jie had deliberately told her that the Dongli Shenghua’s swimming was not good, his oxygen tank was broken and he was sinking due to a lack of oxygen. It was all a deliberate plan to test her!

His shrewdness was strong.

If she had really let him go that day, then nothing would have happened to the extremely good swimmer Dongli Shenghua. Instead, her life would have been in danger because she had run away at the last minute and deliberately left him in the lurch.

After understanding all of this, Beauty Wu’s breathing quickened.

She turned around and lowered her head. She looked at Dongli Shenghua, who was killing fish by the river, and her face turned slightly pale.

Dongli Shenghua killed the fish and smeared the sauce on it. He called Beauty Wu and Dongli Ao over. “Do you know how to roast fish? Come, help me roast this.” Dongli Shenghua gave Beauty Wu a palm-sized fish.

Beauty Wu took the grilled fish clip and maintained a calm smile on her face. She suddenly said, “How good would it be if it was summer? In summer, we can swim freely in the river.”

Dongli Shenghua replied naturally, “I’m not a good swimmer. It’s just good to think about it.”

Beauty Wu sneered in her heart.

You really know how to maintain a lie.

Beauty Wu was not full after eating a few fish. In the afternoon, they went home. Beauty Wu drove home herself and went home to take a nap. When she woke up, she felt very hungry. She walked around the kitchen and realized that the kitchen was dirty. She immediately gave up on the idea of cooking a bowl of noodles herself.

She left the house with some spare change and walked into a popular bakery at the entrance of the neighborhood.

When Beauty Wu arrived, a batch of freshly baked bread was ready. She bought two loaves of bread and tilted her head to see the kitchen through the small door. The pastry chef was making a cake. He casually grabbed a handful of flour and sprinkled it on the table.

Beauty Wu stared at his actions for a long time.

“Your change, miss.”

“Oh.”

After taking the change, Beauty Wu looked at the pastry chef’s actions again before leaving thoughtfully with the bread.

When she got home, Beauty Wu stared at the two loaves of bread with flickering eyes.

On this day, the secretary handed the list of participants of the art festival for Dongli Shenghua to take a look. Usually, Dongli Shenghua did not care about such a small matter. He casually glanced at it and was quite surprised to see that there were more than a hundred participants.

“So many people?”

“Yes, the rewards are too tempting.”

Dongli Shenghua nodded and handed the list back to the secretary.

At this moment, Beauty Wu suddenly asked, “Can I participate too?”

The secretary and Dongli Shenghua looked at her at the same time.

Beauty Wu smiled and said, “I want to participate too. I know how to make cakes. Anyway, the most important thing is to participate.”

Dongli Shenghua looked at her deeply and asked suspiciously, “You really know how to bake?”

“Of course.”

“That works,” Dongli Shenghua said to his secretary. “Add her name.”

“Okay.”

After the secretary left, Beauty Wu asked Dongli Shenghua, “Then if I win the prize, what reward will I get?”

“What do you want?” Dongli Shenghua was quite interested in this topic.

Beauty Wu said, “I’m not an artiste, so I don’t need makeup endorsements. How about this? If I win, the company will give me a set of makeup products from the Y family and a hundred lipsticks from the S family.” No woman did not love cosmetics.

Dongli Shenghua smiled. “Sure.”
