In her previous life, Shen Wantang was married to the Huo family for three years. Neglected and framed, she was pushed down a flight of stairs, killing her and the three babies she carried. Only at the end did she see the truth: her cousin Su Nian had harmed her, her husband Huo Yuanzheng had stood by and watched, and the entire Huo family had kept silent. Reborn, she returns to the second month of her marriage to the Huo family, carrying her unborn child. This time, she won’t cry, make a scene, or throw herself at anyone. She refuses the red envelope for addressing her in-laws by their new titles, rejects the hot soup they have made, cuts off the Shen family’s escape route, and slaps her poisonous cousin back into her true form. The cold-faced man who has returned to the Huo family goes from confusion to shock, from shock to regret, and from regret to begging on his knees for her to come back.
“Shen Wantang, just look at me once. I’ll give you anything.”
She lowers her eyes, rests a hand on her belly, and smiles faintly. “I’m sorry, Mr. Huo. In this life, I’m only protecting my baby.”
