Chapter 82 – Is This Real?
Cai Shumin was shocked at that moment, her whole body swayed, almost falling down.
“Eh, Shumin, what’s wrong with you?” Xu Fanghua saw it and hurried to support her, letting her sit down on the chair.
Cai Shumin tried to stand up, opened her mouth to ask Xu Jinning why she said such things.
But when she opened her mouth, no sound came out.
It was as if, in an instant, she had become mute.
Cai Shumin was instantly filled with fear.
“Shumin, how are you? Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” Cai Shumin subconsciously replied to Xu Fanghua’s words, but then realized she could speak again.
After trying several times, she found that every time she tried to ask Xu Jinning about her husband Zhou Yinsheng, she couldn’t say a word.
But she could say other things.
What was going on?
Also, would her husband get into university? Was the college entrance examination being restored?
What did “one corpse, three lives” mean, and being pushed off a cliff?
Cai Shumin subconsciously touched her belly. Although she wasn’t pregnant now, she had always hoped to have a child with her husband.
Would she have a child in the future? Twins?
But would she and the children be pushed off a cliff by her husband?
Cai Shumin shook her head gently, unwilling to believe that her husband, who had always been loving towards her, would do such a thing.
No, it couldn’t be. This was just nonsense from the little girl.
Yes, that’s it.
“Shumin, why did you come over?”
“Oh, it’s nothing. I just thought you wouldn’t have classes today, so I came to find you.”
Speaking of it, Xu Fanghua and Cai Shumin had been classmates since they were young, from elementary school to high school graduation.
That’s right, Cai Shumin was also a high school student, and her grades were very good.
At that time, they often took turns being first and second in class.
Xu Fanghua knew that Cai Shumin had always wanted to take the college entrance examination and go to university.
Thinking about the news she had just heard from Ningning, Xu Fanghua hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to tell her.
So, she pulled Cai Shumin aside and whispered in her ear, “Shumin, are you still reviewing your old books?”
“I got some reliable information that the college entrance examination might be restored in the next two years. If you want to go to university, don’t slack off.”
Xu Fanghua’s words made Cai Shumin happy, but then she thought of what Xu Jinning had said earlier, and her heart skipped a beat.
The restoration of the college entrance examination naturally delighted Cai Shumin.
Not only was she happy, but she also believed that her husband, Zhou Yinsheng, would be happy too.
Especially her husband, who had always been thinking about the restoration of the college entrance examination, taking the exam, and going to university.
Cai Shumin hoped to attend high school and then go to university, exploring a broader world outside.
However…
From Xu Jinning, she learned that the college entrance examination would be restored next year, and Xu Fanghua also told her that it might be restored in the next two years.
Doesn’t that mean what the little girl, Xu Jinning, said is true?
No, it couldn’t be.
Cai Shumin still didn’t want to believe that her husband was that kind of person.
That would be killing his wife and children, how could that be possible!
As Cai Shumin was silently denying these thoughts in her mind, on the other side, Xu Jinning’s inner thoughts continued.
[Sister Shumin, don’t let that heartless scum deceive you.]
[At first, Zhou Yinsheng approached you, married you, just as a compromise because he couldn’t return to the city. He doesn’t actually like you; it’s just because you’re the only daughter of the brigade leader and he loved you the most. By marrying you and becoming the son-in-law of the brigade leader, he can relax a bit and doesn’t have to work in the fields anymore.]
[But he never liked you; he only used you. The one he likes has always been a girl he knew in the city, a girl named Shi Xue. Her photo is still in Zhou Yinsheng’s notebook.]
[Moreover, Zhou Yinsheng makes excuses to go to the city every month, but he goes there to write letters to that girl. She also writes back to him, and those letters, Zhou Yinsheng definitely wouldn’t throw away. I don’t know where he hides them at home. After the college entrance examination is restored, the two of them even made plans to meet up again at the university.]
[That girl Shi Xue isn’t a good person either. She was transferred to a production brigade in Hainan Province but couldn’t endure hardship, so she got married. By the time she took the college entrance examination, she already had two daughters. In the end, she abandoned her husband and daughters after participating in the college entrance examination and returned to the city.]
[Zhou Yinsheng wanted to take the college entrance examination and leave, but your father, the brigade leader, could guess that, so he didn’t want him to take the exam.]
[And Zhou Yinsheng felt that because of your pregnancy, you were a constraint, tying him down in the countryside, preventing him from soaring high, so he harbored murderous intentions.]
[He tricked you into going up the mountain, and in the end, pushed you down when you were seven months pregnant, then created an alibi.]
[When you were pushed down, you were still alive but unable to move, and Zhou Yinsheng just watched and then left.]
[Later, after some time passed, Zhou Yinsheng actively searched for you, saying you seemed to have disappeared. When everyone found you in the mountains, you, pregnant with a big belly, had long been cold and lifeless, without closing your eyes.]
In fact, it was very common in period novels that educated youth abandon their spouse and children after taking the college entrance examination and entering university.
It was the same in this Real and Fake Rich Daughter novel.
And among those mentioned, there was one person, Cai Shumin from Qinghe Production Brigade, who had the most tragic fate.
Of course, what made Xu Jinning most enraged was the outcome for Zhou Yinsheng and Shi Xue.
[Zhou Yinsheng and Shi Xue really rekindled their relationship at university.]
[After graduation, they were allocated excellent jobs, got married, had children, and had a bright future, living happily.]
[But the crimes they committed, the people they abandoned, were forever concealed, never known by anyone.]
This was the part of the author that Xu Jinning hated the most.
Good people, kind-hearted people, in her writings, were just cannon fodder, while bad people, with evil intentions, even criminals, could become protagonists with a bright future and great success.
Did being the protagonist mean that morality didn’t matter?
[Sister Shumin, you must keep your eyes open and beware of that scumbag and murderer.]
In fact, Cai Shumin was not lacking in ability. If it weren’t for her pregnancy and consideration for her two children in her belly, the Cai Shumin in the book also had ambitions for the college entrance examination, but her fate in the end…
Meanwhile, Cai Shumin had completely frozen in place, unable to speak.
The information Xu Jinning had just provided was too overwhelming, leaving her unable to react.
She kept asking herself repeatedly in her mind, is this real?
Did Brother Yinsheng really not like her and married her only for his own gain? Did he like a girl named Shi Xue?
Would they, in the future, one commit murder while the other abandon husband and daughters just to rekindle their relationship?
