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

Before Sun Qian could even get close to Shen Tang, her raised hand was grabbed by the department store manager.

The director said coldly, "Do you think this is your own home? What are you doing?! Are you going to buy anything or not? If not, get out! Otherwise, I'll call security and have you sent to the police station."

Sun Qian gritted her teeth, stomped her foot in anger, and pointed at Shen Tang, saying:

"You just wait!"

Shen Tang bends her finger at her and says with a smile, "Goodbye."

Sun Qian stormed off in a huff.

Shen Tang pouted and turned to continue choosing clothes.

Shen Tang was looking down at the fabric when a very quiet girl walked in. She must be the "Little Zhao" the director had mentioned.

Shen Tang looked up and asked, "Do you have any scraps of cloth?"

Ready-made garments are too expensive; it's more cost-effective to make them yourself, and scraps of fabric are even cheaper.

When the girl group was first formed, no one had the financial backing to support them, so they had to alter their own stage costumes. It was during that time that Shen Tang learned to operate a sewing machine.

Xiao Zhao asked doubtfully, "I do have some, but they're not neatly arranged. You're going to piece them together to make clothes? Will that look good?"

Shen Tang smiled and said, "Let me see it."

Xiao Zhao dragged a box out from underneath and took out a pile of scraps of cloth from it.

Shen Tang picked it up and looked at it:

"I'll take them all. How much?"

Xiao Zhao scratched his head. These were all unwanted scrap materials; no one would want them even if he sold them.

"Give me two dollars."

Shen Tang readily paid the money and bought another dress.

Shen Tang walked out of the department store, intending to head to the training dormitory of the cultural troupe.

"Beep beep—" A car horn sounded behind me.

Shen Tang quickly moved to the side of the road.

"Shen Tang!"

Shen Tang turned around and saw Ge Aihua.

Huo Xiuyuan was sitting in the driver's seat, looking at her through the car window.

Huo Xiuyuan wore a neatly tailored black shirt today, with two buttons undone at the collar, revealing his prominent collarbone.

Shen Tang stared at him for a long time, completely lacking any self-respect.

"Get in the car, Shen Tang," Ge Aihua called to her.

Shen Tang hurriedly ran over and climbed into the back seat of the car.

Ge Aihua took her hand and smiled:

"I was planning to wait for you at the dormitory, but Commander Huo had something to do and came out, so I was wondering if I could pick you up."

"That's quite a coincidence. Thank you, Commander Huo."

Shen Tang thanked Huo Xiuyuan, who was in the front row.

You're welcome.

Huo Xiuyuan turned and glanced at her, his eyes deep.

Shen Tang was stunned once again. Was this man a succubus?

That profile is absolutely stunning!

A full forehead, a high nose bridge, and a defined jawline; when light and shadow are applied, it looks like a sculpture.

And those long eyelashes that even women envy...

Shen Tang couldn't help but swallow.

Huo Xiuyuan's gaze lingered on her face for a moment before he turned away and continued driving.

"Shen Tang, has your husband been giving you a hard time?"

Shen Tang shook her head. "No."

"Don't worry. If he doesn't let you go, I'll go and demand your release."

Ge Aihua patted her chest and said.

Shen Tang smiled and said, "No need, I can handle it myself. It's nothing."

Ge Aihua preferred Shen Tang. This girl possessed a confidence and resilience rarely seen in ordinary girls.

Lu Jingshen came out of the family compound and walked briskly towards the garment factory.

He had originally intended for Li Xiuying to persuade Shen Tang not to join the performing arts troupe. In the end, he ended up being lectured all morning. He didn't even have time for breakfast before having to rush off to work.

A car horn sounded behind Lu Jingshen, and he turned around to look.

Seeing Huo Xiuyuan sitting in the driver's seat, he looked at him coldly, his eyes filled with contempt.

Lu Jingshen frowned. People from revolutionary families are always full of arrogance.

The jeep slowly drove past him, and he saw Shen Tang sitting inside, smiling brightly.

Lu Jingshen quickened his pace and walked a few steps. He had never seen Shen Tang smile so happily before. She was like a blooming peony, passionate and dazzling.

Lu Jingshen angrily kicked a stone by the roadside. She was laughing so happily with other men, but when she was with him, she was cold and indifferent.

Lu Jingshen arrived at the garment factory with a livid face.

Depth of field.

As soon as he stepped through the gate, Yang Xinyue called out to him.

Yang Xinyue was dressed exceptionally beautifully today, wearing a red dress, with her hair braided into two plaits hanging down on either side, and she was holding a lunchbox in her hands.

"Here, the dumplings I made."

Yang Xinyue handed the lunchbox to Lu Jingshen.

"I've already eaten."

Lu Jingshen didn't have much of an appetite, and not wanting to upset Yang Xinyue, he lied and said he had already eaten.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Yang Xinyue's eyes.

She bit her lip and whispered, "Where did you go yesterday?"

She heard that Shen Tang and Lu Jingshen went back to their hometown together yesterday.

She thought Lu Jingshen would come to see her early this morning, but she only saw him now.

"I've gone back to my hometown."

Lu Jingshen recalled what had happened in his hometown, and a sense of irritation crept into his heart.

He still owes Shen Tang 280 yuan.

Yang Xinyue sensed that Lu Jingshen's tone was unpleasant and felt so wronged that she was about to cry.

She went to the cultural troupe selection yesterday morning and passed the preliminary selection. She originally wanted to tell him the good news.

But what is his attitude towards himself?

Lu Jingshen was already annoyed, and seeing Yang Xinyue about to cry made him even more irritable.

But she patiently said, "I have to go to work."

"I passed the preliminary selection for the cultural troupe."

Yang Xinyue looked at Lu Jingshen with tears in her eyes.

"What?" Lu Jingshen frowned. "Why did you join the performing arts troupe?"

She's going to marry me in the future, what kind of image would she project if she went out in public like this?

Besides, once they got married, Yang Aimin recommended him to become the factory director, and Yang Xinyue would be the factory director's wife. How could the factory director's wife perform on stage?

Prices drop significantly.

Yang Xinyue could no longer hold back her tears, which fell down in a "plop" sound.

Lu Jingshen hurriedly looked around and whispered, "Why are you crying?"

At this moment, Lu Jingshen felt that she would rather do what Shen Tang did and curse a few words.

"You spoil her when she goes, but not when I go? Do you know how focused you are when she's performing on stage?!"

Lu Jingshen quickly coaxed, "How could that be? I hate her too much. She's not even worth a hair on your head. Why are you jealous of her? Okay, stop crying. I'll bring the dumplings; we'll have them for lunch."

"I'm going to be late for work," Lu Jingshen said gently as he took the lunchbox.

"Come find me after you get off work," Yang Xinyue pouted.

"Okay. Good girl."

Lu Jingshen strode forward.

Yang Xinyue watched his retreating figure, her hands clenched tightly.

Lu Jingshen, you can only have me in your heart.

I want you to know that I am no worse than Shen Tang.

Huo Xiuyuan drove the jeep into a spacious courtyard.

Shen Tang got out of the car.

Before me stood several rows of red-tiled houses, their red tiles and white walls exceptionally beautiful. In the middle was a passageway, with acacia trees planted on both sides.

The mimosa flowers were in full bloom, clustered together like a light, wispy sunset, filling the air with a sweet fragrance.

"So beautiful!" Shen Tang couldn't help but exclaim.

Ge Aihua clutched her stomach and said, "Everyone has to go to the bathroom sometimes, I need to go take care of that first."

She said that and ran towards the outhouse.

Shen Tang couldn't help but laugh as a mimosa flower gently landed on her hair.

Huo Xiuyuan looked at her with deep eyes and raised his hand towards her.

Shen Tang tilted her head in confusion, then gave her a gentle head pat?
