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

Shen Tang's gaze fell on Yang Xinyue's lower abdomen.

Yang Xinyue was dressed very loosely, so nothing could be seen.

Yang Xinyue's expression changed, and she tugged at the hem of her clothes.

"You're mistaken. I didn't go to the hospital. I've been doing laundry all day."

Shen Tang smiled and didn't press further, kindly instructing:

"You can't dance while you're pregnant. If something happens, you'll be the one who gets hurt."

Yang Xinyue's hands clenched tightly, and her face turned pale instantly.

"I'm not pregnant!"

In her haste, Yang Xinyue's voice unconsciously rose.

People around were looking this way.

Yang Xinyue lowered her voice and said to Shen Tang, "Shen Tang, even if I get pregnant, Lu Jingshen will still marry me. Unlike you, who can't have children and will never experience what it's like to be a mother."

Shen Tang squinted at her, thinking how vicious her little mouth was.

Shen Tang gave a cold laugh, "Don't you know? I went for a checkup today, and I'm perfectly healthy. I'm sorry to disappoint you, but it was a misdiagnosis before. I don't have infertility."

"What?" Yang Xinyue asked incredulously.

To clear herself of suspicion, she had been washing clothes by the pool until she saw Ge Aihua leave, at which point she came up. Therefore, she didn't hear what had just happened.

Yang Xinyue was stunned for a moment, then sneered.

"What a pity. Even if they find out, what can they do? It's too late. Lu Jingshen can't turn back now."

Shen Tang looked at her pitifully, "Only you would treat that trash Lu Jingshen like a treasure and cherish him so much."

Shen Tang leaned closer to her and said, "Don't think I don't know you're the one pulling the strings behind my back. You'd better not mess with me again, or next time I'll be hitting your face."

Yang Xinyue gripped the enamel basin tightly in her hand, her lower abdomen twitching slightly. She took a deep breath and swallowed her words.

Shen Tang gave her a cold look, then turned and walked back to the dormitory.

Yang Xinyue stood there, staring at Shen Tang's back, a slow smile appearing on her lips as she patted her lower abdomen.

She has already written to Lu Jingshen, and once he arrives, she will go back with him to apply for marriage.

Then we can live a happy life.

Shen Tang? She would never take her seriously again.

What's so great about a performing arts troupe? The most important thing for a woman in her life is to marry a good man.

Shen Tang walked to the dormitory entrance and glanced downstairs.

In the passageway not far away, Ge Aihua was talking to Huo Xiuyuan.

Shen Tang remembered what the old Taoist priest had said and touched the beaded string on her hand.

I decided to remind Huo Xiuyuan anyway.

Ge Aihua looked at Huo Xiuyuan with a smile in her eyes and lowered her voice:

"Shen Tang is fertile and in good health."

A hint of surprise flashed in Huo Xiuyuan's eyes, but he still said calmly:

"We have nothing to do with each other now."

Huo Xiuyuan asked in surprise, "You broke up?"

She thought for a moment and laughed, "Are you afraid that Commander Zhang will punish Shen Tang? That's just how Zhang Weili is. She says she won't let us talk about it, but if we do, she won't do anything. As long as it doesn't affect training, she'll turn a blind eye."

Huo Xiuyuan lowered his eyes. "No, we've never talked about it."

Ge Aihua frowned. "Huo Xiuyuan, I never expected you to be this kind of person. Are you trying to shirk responsibility? Or has your family introduced you to some rich heiress again?"

Huo Xiuyuan's jawline tightened, and he didn't reply.

He looked up at the building, and Shen Tang quickly turned away.

Shen Tang was far away, so naturally she couldn't hear what Ge Aihua and Huo Xiuyuan were saying.

She wanted to go to Ge Aihua and remind Huo Xiuyuan through her.

After all, the old Taoist priest spoke so truthfully that she would feel guilty if something really happened to Huo Xiuyuan.

Shen Tang watched as Ge Aihua walked towards the regimental commander's dormitory. She hurried down the stairs to find Ge Aihua in the dormitory.

"Shen Tang? Is something the matter?" Ge Aihua looked at Shen Tang. "Sit down and talk."

Shen Tang sat down on the chair next to him and leaned forward slightly:

"Commander Ge, I met an old Taoist priest outside today, and he said some cryptic things to me."

Ge Aihua looked up at her and waited for her to finish speaking.

Shen Tang thought for a moment before continuing, "He said Huo Xiuyuan will face a major calamity this year, and you should remind him to be careful when he goes on missions, especially in the southwest direction."

Ge Aihua's gaze scrutinized Shen Tang's face. "You went to tell his fortune?"

"No," Shen Tang hurriedly explained, "It's just... the Taoist priest somehow started talking about him."

Ge Aihua saw that she didn't respond, and sighed heavily.

"Shen Tang, Huo Xiuyuan is very outstanding. Don't let his age fool you. I've never seen him care about anyone before. You're the first."

Shen Tang curled her lip, "He even went to Li Meihua's house for dinner and is going to get engaged to her. They're the real couple."

Ge Aihua was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.

Shen Tang then learned that when Huo Xiuyuan was young, Li Meihua's mother, Zhang Guiying, had helped their family out of poverty, and Huo Xiuyuan went to eat there because of Zhang Guiying.

"Huo Xiuyuan doesn't like Li Meihua, and there's nothing between them anyway. You're a smart kid, don't miss out on a good marriage."

Ge Aihua patted Shen Tang's hand.

"Go and say what you're telling me yourself. I'm not going to be your mouthpiece." Ge Aihua turned her gaze back to the notebook in her hand.

"By the way, the performing arts troupe is going to perform in the countryside in a couple of days. If you have something to say, tell Huo Xiuyuan quickly, before it's too late."

Shen Tang walked out of Ge Aihua's dormitory and soon saw Huo Xiuyuan standing on the road, talking to someone.

She glanced up, then lowered her head and walked away quickly.

"Wait a moment," Huo Xiuyuan said in a deep voice.

Shen Tang stopped and turned around. "What's wrong, Commander Huo?"

"Wait here for me."

After Huo Xiuyuan finished speaking, he strode towards the dormitory.

Shen Tang looked at his retreating figure, feeling somewhat bewildered.

What's wrong with you? You just dumped someone and left?

She stood there for a while, then was about to leave.

Huo Xiuyuan ran up from behind and stuffed a cloth bag into Shen Tang's hands.

"What is it?" Shen Tang tore open the opening and looked inside.

"I brought you dates, dried cheese, and beef jerky."

Shen Tang's eyes lit up; this beef jerky was no easy feat!

"I don't want it." Shen Tang pushed the cloth bag back.

"If you don't want it, I'll give it to the soldiers," Huo Xiuyuan said helplessly.

Shen Tang gritted her teeth.

You big idiot, couldn't you have pushed it over one more time?

Who doesn't go back and forth like they're doing Tai Chi, pushing and pulling several times before finally giving up?

"Hmm, if you really want it, then I'll reluctantly accept it," Shen Tang muttered under her breath, looking away.

"I originally bought it for you, but I was afraid you would dislike it." Huo Xiuyuan looked at Shen Tang with a deep gaze.

Shen Tang took the cloth bag from his hand.

"Um, be careful when you go on missions lately, especially those to the southwest."

"You still care about me." Huo Xiuyuan looked at her intently.
