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

Liu Jinhua was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She had actually let Shen Tang get her hands on.

"Isn't that factory manager's daughter in love with you? You should get a divorce as soon as possible. As long as you pin the blame on Shen Tang, you won't have to pay her back the money and the house," Liu Jinhua said in a low voice.

Liu Jinhua secretly thought that if she could become related to the factory director through marriage, she could arrange for her second son, Lu Tianci, to also work as a junior manager in the garment factory. Then who would want a woman like Wang Cuixia?

"Did you hear that?" Liu Jinhua nudged Lu Jingshen.

Lu Jingshen frowned and said in a low voice, "I know what I'm doing."

Although he and Yang Xinyue are in love, he cannot divorce Shen Tang yet.

If he abandons Shen Tang at this time, he will definitely be criticized for being ungrateful.

Moreover, it's bad for the reputation of the new moon.

After seeing Liu Jinhua off, Lu Jingshen pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed deeply.

He glanced at the family compound, but instead of going back, he turned and walked towards the garment factory.

Following the original owner's memories, Shen Tang entered the family compound and went upstairs along the stairs.

The narrow passageways of the tenement building were filled with small tables, each with its own stove and pot.

Shen Tang walked into the room, which was only about 20 square meters, and couldn't help but sigh.

There is no separate bathroom, no latex mattress, no walk-in closet, and no entire wall of haute couture.

She opened the wardrobe, inside which hung several old-fashioned clothes.

Shen Tang pulled out a white shirt and a pair of black pants, tied the hem of the shirt in a knot at her waist, revealing her slender waist.

The original owner had a slender and tall figure, making her a good candidate for dancing.

She looked at herself in the mirror and saw that the face looked about 70-80% like hers.

Her skin was fair and supple, her fox-like eyes were beautiful and charming, her nose was small and high, and her lips were slightly upturned, giving her a natural smile.

Such a beautiful face, yet it's always hidden behind this messy hair.

She picked up the scissors and, with a few quick snips, cut her hair short.

Her short, ear-length hair and high bangs revealed her beautiful eyebrows, eyes, and forehead.

Image makeover complete.

Shen Tang took a deep breath and recalled a few classic revolutionary songs in her mind.

Fortunately, she came from a girl group and had specifically learned a few songs during her training.

She stretched her limbs. Although the original owner had no dance background, she had worked for many years and was quite strong and flexible.

Shen Tang didn't plan to wait; she opened the door and went out.

She wants to secure a spot in the selection process for the performing arts troupe.

When Shen Tang entered the lobby of the Cultural Palace, a large number of people had already gathered inside.

She spotted Huo Xiuyuan sitting at the registration desk immediately. He was dressed in a crisp military uniform, with an upright posture and a cold, stern expression—a truly abstinent young military officer.

"I heard Commander Huo was injured and can't do that..."

"What a pity, otherwise so many girls would be vying for his attention."

The two girls next to me were whispering to each other.

Shen Tang smiled slightly; the claim of having no heir was probably true.

Huo Xiuyuan's gaze fell on her, and he paused slightly before looking away and gently stroking the pen in his hand.

Shen Tang walked straight over.

"Hello comrade, I would like to register."

Shen Tang stood straight and poised.

Huo Xiuyuan glanced up at him and pushed a piece of paper towards her:

"Fill out the form first."

Shen Tang took it and then looked at the pen in Huo Xiuyuan's hand.

"Could I borrow your pen?"

Huo Xiuyuan paused, his hand holding the pen still, and looked up at her.

The sunlight fell behind her, so bright that it was hard to open one's eyes.

Huo Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes and handed her the pen in his hand.

Shen Tang's fingertips "unintentionally" brushed against Huo Xiuyuan's knuckles.

"Thank you," Shen Tang said with a smile.

Huo Xiuyuan's face remained expressionless, but he lightly rubbed his knuckles together.

At this moment, a middle-aged female military officer who looked very kind sat down and looked at Shen Tang,

"Here to register?"

Shen Tang replied crisply, "Yes, Commander."

Shen Tang recognized her at a glance as Ge Aihua, the head of the cultural troupe—the original owner of this body had seen her from afar before.

"You have a good image," Ge Aihua said with a smile. "Are you prepared? How about you perform on stage?"

"Of course I dare," Shen Tang said confidently with a smile.

She returned the pen to Huo Xiuyuan. "Commander Huo, thank you."

Huo Xiuyuan picked up the pen from the table, his face still expressionless.

Ge Aihua opened her eyes wide in shock:

"You don't mean you won't let others touch your pen..."

"Go perform!" Huo Xiuyuan suddenly said coldly to Shen Tang.

Shen Tang glanced at him, thinking to herself, "How can he change his expression so suddenly?"

Shen Tang confidently walked onto the stage, and murmurs arose from below.

Her gaze swept across the lobby and she spotted Lu Jingshen.

Standing next to him was a beautiful girl with big eyes. She was none other than Yang Xinyue, the female protagonist of the original book.

Yang Xinyue wore a white dress, her long black hair cascading over her shoulders, and a pearl hair clip in her hair.

As expected of the original novel's female lead, she is truly beautiful, with her delicate, slightly furrowed brows that evoke a sense of tenderness and vulnerability.

In the book, Yang Xinyue was unaware that Lu Jingshen was already married at first, but by the time she found out, she was already deeply involved.

After the original owner of the book died, Yang Xinyue and Lu Jingshen, lovers, finally got married and lived happily ever after.

Shen Tang smiled slightly; the two looked very well-matched.

"It's my sister-in-law." Yang Xinyue turned to look at Lu Jingshen, her big eyes sparkling. "I didn't expect my sister-in-law to have signed up."

Lu Jingshen frowned. Shen Tang couldn't sing or dance at all? Wasn't this just embarrassing?

Lu Jingshen approached and said in a low voice.

"Shen Tang, what are you doing? Get down here right now."

Shen Tang glanced at him, then looked at the crowd and spoke loudly and confidently:

"I'll be performing 'Night at the Military Port' for you all."

A murmur arose from the audience, but Shen Tang paid no attention to it.

She slowly began to sing, and her clear, sweet voice filled the air—

"The night at the naval port is so quiet."

The waves gently rocked the warship.

After singing just one line, the previously noisy hall instantly fell silent.

Everyone turned to look at Shen Tang on the stage.

Shen Tang's expression was relaxed and carefree, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she gazed into the distance, as if she could see the tranquil and gentle night of the military port.

"The young sailors rested their heads on the waves."

A sweet smile appeared on her face in her sleep.

As the melodious song played, she stretched out her arms and danced to the music. Her movements were graceful and elegant, perfectly capturing the song's gentle beauty.

Wow—what a beautiful dance!

"Such a beautiful voice!"

A gasp of amazement erupted from the audience.

Looking at Shen Tang, who seemed both familiar and unfamiliar on the stage, Lu Jingshen suddenly felt as if he didn't recognize her anymore.

Perhaps he never truly understood her.

Yang Xinyue clenched her fists tightly.

She used to think that Shen Tang was an uneducated country woman who was not good enough for Lu Jingshen. But now, looking at Shen Tang standing on the stage, she felt uneasy.

Ge Aihua, sitting in the front row, beamed with a smile. Beside her, Huo Xiuyuan stared intently at Shen Tang on stage.

After the song ended, enthusiastic applause erupted from the audience.

Ge Aihua also clapped, "Not bad, not bad."

"Preliminary selection passed!" Ge Aihua handed over the selection form with both hands.

Shen Tang hurriedly ran over to take it, bowing and saying, "Thank you, Commander!"

"She's already married, she can't join the performing arts troupe!"

Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted.
