She was tricked into marriage for three years, then remarried a childless, tough guy and became preg

Shen Tang got into the car, and Huo Xiuyuan glanced at her, his eyes full of smiles.

He grasped Shen Tang's hand, shifted gears, started the car, and drove forward.

After driving for a while, Shen Tang looked at the road outside and turned her head in confusion, saying:

"Where are you going? This isn't the way back."

Huo Xiuyuan gripped the steering wheel, his gaze fixed on the road ahead, his tone calm:

"Go visit your parents' graves. I married their daughter; I should at least tell them."

Shen Tang was stunned for a moment, and her eyes immediately welled up with tears.

She hadn't expected Huo Xiuyuan to be so thoughtful.

"Huo Xiuyuan..." Her voice was a little hoarse, and her eyes were red.

Huo Xiuyuan turned to look at her and said softly, "Why are you crying? Your parents would be happy if they knew you married me."

"Stop being so vain." Shen Tang was amused by him.

Shen Tang leaned on his shoulder, her voice filled with happiness.

"Huo Xiuyuan, you're so kind."

Huo Xiuyuan smiled slightly and tilted his head to kiss the top of her head.

"You deserve it," he said earnestly.

Huo Xiuyuan went to the village's supply and marketing cooperative to buy some sacrificial items. He parked the car at the foot of the mountain, and the two of them walked up the stone steps.

The mountain path wasn't steep, but it was narrow, and the weeds on both sides had grown up to knee-high.

Following the original owner's memories, Shen Tang stopped in front of a low grave and parted the weeds in front of it.

The words on the tombstone have been blurred by wind and rain, but the name can still be made out.

Shen Tang felt a slight pang of sadness. Although they were not her biological parents, Shen Tang still retained the original owner's memories.

They were wonderful parents who doted on the original owner of this body. This warmth was something Shen Tang had never experienced before.

After the original owner married Lu Jingshen, she never came to pay her respects, because Liu Jinhua forbade it.

Shen Tang held back her tears, squatted down, and began to pull out the weeds in front of the grave.

"Don't prick your hand, I'll do it," Huo Xiuyuan said softly.

Shen Tang stepped back. Huo Xiuyuan carefully pulled out the weeds and quickly cleared the area.

Huo Xiuyuan lit incense and handed it to Shen Tang, who then placed it in front of the grave.

Huo Xiuyuan placed offerings in front of the grave, then took out a bottle of wine from his pocket, unscrewed the cap, and poured it around the grave. The wine seeped into the soil, releasing a faint aroma of grain.

He took off his coat and spread it on the ground in front of Shen Tang.

"Put some padding on it," Huo Xiuyuan said.

The two knelt side by side in front of the grave, and Shen Tang turned her head to look at Huo Xiuyuan.

"Mom and Dad, this is Huo Xiuyuan. He's very good to me." Her voice was soft.

Huo Xiuyuan knelt beside him, his tone solemn: "Uncle and Aunt, my name is Huo Xiuyuan, and I am the commander of the Special Forces Regiment. I brought Shen Tang back today to tell you that we are planning to get married."

Shen Tang pursed her lips slightly, tears welling up in her eyes.

"From now on, I will take good care of her. I don't have any ulterior motives, nor do I know how to say sweet words, but I will do everything I can. I won't let her suffer any injustice. You can rest assured."

Shen Tang's tears fell into the soil: "Mom and Dad, don't worry, your daughter is very happy."

Huo Xiuyuan pulled her closer to his arms, and the two of them kowtowed together.

They also burned some paper money in the brazier.

They didn't start walking down the mountain until it got a little dark.

Huo Xiuyuan held Shen Tang's hand tightly, a smile playing on his lips.

Shen Tang felt much more at ease. In the past, she always felt that she was herself and the original owner was the original owner, but now she felt that since she had come here and taken over the original owner's life, then she was the original owner, and she was Shen Tang of this era.

Perhaps the original owner transmigrated into her body and became a top female star in the 21st century.

Shen Tang looked up at the horizon. "Isn't it too late?"

"It's alright." Huo Xiuyuan squeezed her hand. "I'll arrive before tomorrow morning."

The two got into the car and drove back, but slowed down halfway there.

Huo Xiuyuan frowned and looked ahead. Not far away, a thick plume of smoke was rising from the roof of a thatched house by the roadside, and flames were already shooting out from the eaves, crackling and popping.

Huo Xiuyuan parked the car on the side of the road, opened the car door, and jumped out.

"You stay in the car!"

He shouted and rushed towards that direction without looking back.

Shen Tang opened the car door and jumped out. "Be careful!"

Just as she was about to follow, she suddenly heard hurried footsteps behind her. Before she could turn around, her mouth and nose were covered.

A pungent odor assaulted her senses, and she immediately held her breath. Before she could even utter a sound, her body went limp.

Shen Tang's gaze turned to Huo Xiuyuan's direction; he was rushing into the sea of ​​fire...

When Shen Tang opened her eyes again, she found herself thrown into a dilapidated temple, her hands tied behind her back, and a rag stuffed in her mouth.

There were two men's voices outside.

"This woman is really pretty, with delicate skin, hehe..."

"This deal was great; I got paid and I'm happy!"

"That man doesn't look like someone you want to mess with."

"What are you afraid of? We'll sleep with her and run away. Who can find us? Besides, who's going to tell anyone about this?"

"Hurry up, I can't wait! Hahaha..."

Two people walked in, one tall and one short, rubbing their hands together.

"Hey, you're awake? Awake makes it even more exciting, come on!"

The tall man threw his tattered jacket out.

The short man laughed loudly and pounced on Shen Tang.

"Ugh, ugh..." Shen Tang mumbled, indicating that she had something to say.

"What's up? You want to say something?" the short man asked with a smile.

"Stop wasting time talking to her, get on with the job." The tall man grabbed Shen Tang by the collar.

"Ugh," Shen Tang used all her strength to push the rag out of her mouth.

"Holy crap? That's pretty powerful." The tall guy picked up the cloth and was about to stuff it into her mouth again.

"How much did they give you? I'll pay double," Shen Tang hurriedly said. "You just want money, right? Taking my money won't get you into trouble."

The tall man's chubby face twitched, and his eyes swept over Shen Tang.

He said with a forced smile, "Double? You have that much money on you?"

Shen Tang thought for a moment and decided that she absolutely could not say that she had money on her, otherwise they would search her and take the money, and her innocence would be in jeopardy.

We can only stall them for now, and then figure out a way to save ourselves.

She prayed that Huo Xiuyuan would find her soon.

"I don't have it on me, but my man does," Shen Tang said firmly. "Let me go, take the money, and run as far away as you want. I won't pursue the matter. After all, this kind of thing isn't honorable, is it?"

The tall man squinted at her for a few seconds, seemingly weighing her words.

"Brother, this is a good deal, double the price!" the short man said with a smile.

"Are you stupid?" The tall man flicked him on the head. "If we send her back, do you think her husband will let us off easily? With his build, he could beat us up like chickens!"

"Yes, brother is right," the short man nodded.

The tall man stepped forward, pinched Shen Tang's mouth shut, and stuffed a rag inside.

"We brothers will make sure you're comfortable, hahaha..."
