Reincarnation: I Married My Ex's Brother

After Dongli Shenghua’s accident, Dongli Ao’s personality changed drastically.

He no longer liked to talk and locked himself in his room all day. However, when it was time to eat, he would still come downstairs regularly.

On this day, he came downstairs and saw someone who shouldn’t be here.

Dongli Ao stared at Beauty Wu for a long time before turning around to go upstairs.

Beauty Wu stopped him.

“Xiao Ao, come down and let’s talk.”

Dongli Ao turned around and looked at her with a complicated gaze.

These few days, be it on television or on the Internet, Dongli Shenghua’s matter was considered a hot topic. Dongli Ao already knew how to use his phone to go online. When he saw countless people scolding his daddy in the comments section, he knew that his daddy had really done a terrible thing.

He had searched for promotional videos and documentaries about drugs. When he found out how badly drug addicts affected their families, Dongli Ao understood how sinful his daddy was.

He also knew that this woman had betrayed his daddy.

He hated her, but he also understood that she had done the right thing. Daddy was a bad person for dealing drugs. The police were right to arrest bad people for the sake of society.

Even though he understood in his heart, when he really faced Beauty Wu, Dongli Ao’s mood was still complicated and heavy.

In an instant, he thought of many things.

Seeing that he was still standing at the same spot and did not go upstairs or downstairs, Beauty Wu’s eyes darkened. She said softly to him, “Xiao Ao, Sister will talk to you for a while, okay?”

Sister…

Dongli Ao finally turned around and went downstairs.

They sat on the sofa and faced each other. Neither of them dared to look at each other’s faces.

One was ashamed, and the other was guilty.

Even though Dongli Shenghua had already left, perhaps because he had expected this day to come, he had left a sum of money for Dongli Ao in advance. This sum of money was enough for him to continue hiring a butler and a nanny who cooked. Therefore, his current life did not change much from before.

The butler poured a cup of warm tea for Beauty Wu. Thinking that Dongli Ao had eaten too much these few days, he poured a cup of milk for him and brought over a plate of snacks.

Dongli Ao looked at the exquisite desserts dejectedly.

“What do you want to tell me?” he asked stiffly. There was a layer of frost in his words.

Beauty Wu finally looked him in the eye.

“Do you hate me?”

The child was stunned for a moment. Perhaps he didn’t expect Beauty Wu to bring this up.

The child’s face twisted into a ball. His lips moved for a while, but he could not say if he hated her. After a moment, he said leisurely, “…I don’t know.” He really did not know. He knew that he should not hate her, but his heart still blamed Beauty Wu.

However, he understood that he should not blame her.

Beauty Wu said, “Then it’s hate.”

Dongli Ao wanted to say something, but in the end, he remained silent.

“I don’t expect you to forgive me.” Beauty Wu put down her teacup and stood up. “I was just a little worried about you and wanted to come and see you.”

“Well, I’m done visiting you and there’s nothing else I can do. I’ll leave.”

She walked out.

Dongli Ao quickly looked up, his gaze following her footsteps until she reached the door.

The person suddenly turned around.

Her slender figure looked especially beautiful in the sunset.

The first time he saw her, she walked against the morning sun. As she got closer, she revealed a stunning face that Dongli Ao had imagined countless times in his mind.

This time, it was against the sunset.

Dongli Ao felt a little reluctant.

He felt that after Beauty Wu left, he might not have a chance to see her again.

“Can I still come to see you in the future?” Beauty Wu could not bear to leave the little guy alone at home.

After all, he was her brother.

Dongli Ao remained silent.

Beauty Wu added, “I won’t come often either. If you don’t like to see me, I’ll come once a month.”

“…Okay.”

Beauty Wu left swiftly.

Dongli Ao stood up and looked around the big house. He felt especially lonely.

Beauty Wu returned to work at the police station again. She had matured and was no longer as impetuous as before.

She had also changed. She no longer liked to tease others, and her smile was less unrestrained.

Kang Hui was not used to her being obedient.

After work, Kang Hui and a few brothers brought Beauty Wu to his house to eat hotpot. Beauty Wu was the only woman in the group. Among them, a few were members of the original team, and two were new members after Captain Huang and the rest left.

Beauty Wu was not familiar with them yet. During supper, she was quite quiet the entire time.

Kang Hui saw her silence and did not question her during the meal.

After eating the hotpot, Kang Hui sent the others away before saying to Beauty Wu, who was holding her motorcycle keys and preparing to leave, “Sleep here tonight. I have something to tell you.”

Only then did Beauty Wu smile. It was still that bright and beautiful smile, more dazzling than the stars and more charming than the morning sun.

She bantered with Kang Hui and said, “It won’t be good if word gets out that a man and a woman are in the same room. Senior Brother, could it be that you’ve had a crush on me for a long time and haven’t been able to confess your feelings for me? Are you trying to have some ambiguity with me before doing it?”

He finally found something familiar about her.

Kang Hui scolded her, “Stop talking nonsense. Shut up.”

Beauty Wu was still smiling, her peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed and were a little lazy.

Kang Hui sighed again. “You’re so good-looking. Why am I not attracted to you?”

“Perhaps we’re too familiar with each other. We both know our strengths and flaws.” After saying that, Beauty Wu was stunned.

Strengths and flaws…

She missed Wei Shuyi again.

That night, Beauty Wu really stayed at his house.

In the past, when she was busy, Beauty Wu had also stayed at Kang Hui’s house. His house still had the clothes she had put here, but they were all summer clothes. Beauty Wu wore a dress and was a little cold, so she wore Kang Hui’s coat.

Kang Hui poured her a cup of hot water using the porcelain cup she had placed at his house.

Beauty Wu was about to drink when Kang Hui spoke.

Kang Hui said frankly, “There’s something wrong with you.”

“What’s wrong?”

Beauty Wu was surprised.

Kang Hui said, “Many aspects. You don’t like to laugh or joke like before. You’re more serious and composed when you do things.”

Beauty Wu could not take it anymore and asked, “Isn’t this good?”

“It’s good.” Kang Hui frowned. He was a little disappointed. “I still prefer the beautiful woman who flirted with the heavens and earth in the past.”

Hearing this, Beauty Wu’s expression turned serious.

She twirled her teacup with her fingers, thinking about Wei Shuyi.

Her heart started to ache again.

Beauty Wu sighed softly and looked vexed. She said, “It’s hurtful to flirt casually.”

Kang Hui frowned at her, thinking about what she had said.

A moment later, he probed, “You and Mr. Wei…”

“We broke up a long time ago. He’s already gone overseas to study at the Cleveland Clinic in America.” With that, she added, “He’s going for three years.”

“Have you never thought of getting back together?”

“Get back together?” Beauty Wu laughed in spite of herself. She laughed self-deprecatingly and muttered, “How can it be so simple? I let him down. How can I still have the face to harass him? He was really lucky that he didn’t die that time. He almost lost his life because of me. Senior Brother, you don’t know how regretful I was when I found out that the car accident was related to me.”

“There has never been a moment when I deeply hated myself like that day.”

Beauty Wu did not want to delve into this topic. She drank all the warm water and stood up. She said goodnight to Kang Hui and returned to her room.

She collapsed on the bed and thought about some things. Her heart ached, swelled, and she felt especially terrible.

Suddenly, she turned around and hugged the blanket tightly. She murmured softly, “Brother…”

Her voice was filled with pain and longing.

Spring passed and winter came. Beauty Wu had been a police officer for more than a year.

Over the past year, she had still been coming and going like the wind. She had been busy fighting drug dealers and going to nursing homes to help take care of her dead colleagues’ parents.

It was a clear day. She went to the cemetery with Kang Hui and the rest to pay respects to her dead colleagues.

In front of Captain Huang’s tombstone, there were a few fresh flowers. It was probably those who had gained his favor and came to see him. Binjiang City was relatively peaceful this year. The drug trafficking groups were not as arrogant as before, but they still existed. Those people in the dark were only more careful when dealing with drugs.

They narcotics team that reported to Captain Huang in Binjiang City for nearly two years and only left at noon.

On the way back, Lin Song teased Kang Hui. “Ah Hui, I heard that you’re going on a blind date. How is it? Is that girl worth considering?”

Kang Hui adjusted his collar and arranged his hair in the rearview mirror. After he was done, he said to Lin Song, “I’ll only know that when we meet.”

“Hey, you’re already 30 years old. It’s time to fall in love.”

Lin Song was already married and his wife was pregnant. This year, he had been living quite comfortably. He turned his head and stared at Beauty Wu beside him. He asked her with a mischievous smile, “When is Sister Beauty planning to stop being single?”

Beauty Wu smiled lightly.

“Who knows!”

Lin Song nodded. “Fate has arrived. You can’t stop it. There’s no hurry.”

“Of course.”

The group chatted and laughed as they arrived at Kang Hui’s blind date.

The brothers cheered him on before Kang Hui got out of the car. He took a deep breath and walked into the cafe. Beauty Wu and the rest hid in the car and secretly watched Kang Hui walk into the cafe. They saw him sit down by the window.

They finally saw Kang Hui’s blind date clearly.

Lin Song exclaimed and said, “Damn, this girl is really good-looking!”

Beauty Wu nodded and said, “Her figure is good too.” Her chest was big, her waist was thin, and her face was good-looking. She was quite compatible with Kang Hui.

“If she’s not bad, then Ah Hui has to grab the opportunity well.”

“I hope so.”

Kang Hui was very engrossed in his conversation with the girl. Seeing that there were no more problems, Beauty Wu said to Lin Song and the rest, “Alright, it’s not easy to have a day off. Go back and accompany your wife and children.”

“What about you?”

“I’m going to see Brother Chen’s mother and Brother Lei’s parents.”

Lin Song quickly opened his wallet and handed Beauty Wu 200 yuan. He said, “I won’t be going. Take this money and help me buy some food for them.”

Beauty Wu did not stand on ceremony with him and took the money.
