The Rejuvenation System of Hehuan: Starting with a Young Woman in an Apartment

Zhao Fang's face was pale, and her expression was extremely hesitant. She didn't know whether she should believe Chen Mo.

It wasn't that she disliked Chen Mo, but rather that it concerned her reputation.

Thinking about it carefully, she is still Zhang Li's daughter-in-law, but Zhang Li gave her own daughter-in-law to another man. If people in her hometown find out, wouldn't she be gossiped about behind her back?

It didn't look good even to her parents.

Especially for someone like her, who appears weak on the surface but is actually very strong-willed, it was worse than killing her.

In this situation, Zhao Fang would rather die.

But Chen Mo's hint reminded her of what Chen Mo had told her before.

If what Chen Mo said is true, then if she cooperates with Chen Mo, she will have a chance to escape from Zhang Li's misery.

At least there's a chance to start anew.

After thinking for a long time, Zhao Fang clenched her fists tightly. The next moment, she made up her mind and decided to take a gamble.

If she wins the gamble, she will be able to escape her misery.

If she loses the gamble and her reputation is truly tarnished, then she can only exchange her life for her honor.

Anyway, she felt that this kind of life was meaningless.

He then nodded to Chen Mo, watching the scene nervously, wondering what Chen Mo would do next.

Seeing Zhao Fang's affirmative reply, Chen Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Zhao Fang would fight to the death when the plan was implemented.

Of course, there is another reason, which would ruin his entire plan.

In this light, the precautions he had given Zhao Fang earlier were probably correct.

Now all he needs to do is deal with Zhang Li's problem.

At this moment, after Zhang Li finished scolding Zhao Fang, she turned back to Chen Mo and said, "So? Big brother, any ideas?"

Hearing this, Chen Mo couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, and then said, "Ideas? He must have a lot of ideas. If he didn't have ideas, why would he go through all this trouble?"

However, he had to pretend, otherwise Zhang Li would see through him, which would be troublesome. Given her greedy nature, he would definitely be hindered.

Chen Mo feigned hesitation for a moment, then pretended to be resolute and said to Zhang Li, "Stop talking. Zhao Fang is indeed very good, but she is your daughter-in-law. Aren't you tarnishing her reputation? I will absolutely not agree to this."

Upon hearing Chen Mo's words, Zhao Fang was instantly terrified.

Then she stared blankly at Chen Mo, unsure whether he was faking it or speaking from the heart.

Chen Mo actually valued her reputation so much.

Even if it's fake, Chen Mo is still her confidant. The fact that he could say such things shows that Chen Mo knows Zhao Fang values ​​her reputation.

The next moment, Zhao Fang finally breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that Chen Mo was indeed aware of the situation.

Upon hearing Chen Mo's refusal, Zhang Lishi immediately became anxious and said to Chen Mo, "Big brother, big brother, don't be in such a hurry, let me finish speaking first."

"Your only concern is that Zhao Fang is my daughter-in-law. Why not just make sure she's not my daughter-in-law?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo feigned surprise and then asked Zhang Li, "Zhao Fang is clearly your daughter-in-law, how can she suddenly not be your daughter-in-law?"

Zhao Fang was also very curious.

At this moment, Zhang Li continued speaking to Chen Mo, "Hey, brother, how could you be so foolish?"

"Is Zhao Fang my daughter-in-law? It's just a matter of a letter of annulment, isn't it?"

Zhao Fang's face turned pale instantly. Clearly, this was not the solution he wanted, and breaking off the engagement would not bring him any good reputation either.

After being jilted, what will become of her? Clearly, this is not the solution he wanted.

Being jilted for no reason, isn't that an insult to her?

Of course, this wasn't the solution Chen Mo wanted, but it could be considered one of the steps in the plan.

Chen Mo pretended not to understand, and then continued to say to Zhang Li, "How can that be? Breaking off the engagement with Zhao Fang without any reason would just make us a laughingstock!"

"And it will also cause me trouble."

Chen Mo feigned dissatisfaction.

At this moment, Zhang Li continued, "Brother, what you say makes sense, but I have a way."

Hearing this, Chen Mo gave a soft "oh," and then continued to ask, "Oh, do you have any ideas?"

Zhang Li chuckled and said, "Brother Wang, don't worry, if you really have feelings for Zhao Fang, I will naturally make all the arrangements."

"Naturally, it will not tarnish Zhao Fang's reputation, nor will it tarnish yours."

"By announcing the engagement to Zhao Fang without any reason, not only has it humiliated you, but it's also bad for my reputation. Don't you agree?"

"I can give a reason: Zhao Fang has been filial to me for many years, and I can't bear to let her continue to suffer. Besides, my son has been dead for many years, and she has already fulfilled her filial duty."

"So I plan to adopt Zhao Fang as my goddaughter. That way, whether she wants to stay in our family or find a new marriage, I will make arrangements for her."

"Not only will it not tarnish Zhao Fang's reputation, but it will also earn everyone's praise."

Upon hearing Zhang Li's impassioned speech, the scene instantly fell silent.

Zhao Fang, whose face had turned pale and who had been looking tense and worried, froze instantly. Then her eyes widened as if she found it utterly unbelievable.

Zhao Fang hadn't expected Zhang Li to come up with such a plan.

If what Zhang Li said is true, then it is indeed a good idea.

If it's a broken engagement, that would be really unpleasant to hear. But if it's a cancellation of the engagement, and then Zhao Fang is adopted as a goddaughter because of her filial piety...

That would be completely different.

It's like giving Zhao Fang a completely new life.

Not only would they not gossip about him, but they would also have plenty to say in his praise.

Moreover, if Zhao Fang were to give the bride price to Zhang Lishi after she got married, that would be the epitome of filial piety and a model of virtue.

In this way, even if others want to say something sarcastic, it will only be directed at Zhang Lishi, and will have nothing to do with Zhao Fang, since all of this was Zhang Lishi's own decision.

For Zhao Fang, whose traditional values ​​are deeply ingrained, this was a perfect solution.

The next moment, Zhao Fang became excited and almost went to Zhang Li's house to ask if it was true. However, she suppressed her excitement the next moment.

Although this plan not only did not tarnish his reputation, it even helped her gain a better reputation.

But if she acts too excited, wouldn't that mean she can't wait to give herself to Chen Mo?

The next moment, Zhao Fang felt a mix of anxiety and uncertainty. If the plan could be successfully implemented, she would indeed be able to escape her suffering, but it also meant that she would be given to Chen Mo.

Does that mean she's going to be Chen Mo's wife?

Thinking of this, Zhao Fang's breathing quickened, and she looked in Chen Mo's direction, staring at Chen Mo's face.

Recalling the events of the past two days, Zhao Fang felt not only no resistance, but also fear, and even more so, nervousness and a touch of anticipation…

Zhao Fang's heart started pounding, it felt like it was about to jump out of her throat. She wondered to herself, what's wrong with her...?

In the past, she had been very resistant to men, but this time, she had inexplicably become expectant. Could it be that she really liked Chen Mo...?
