Chapter 15: Coming to the Door to Steal the Golden Finger

Jiang Siyuan grit her teeth, forcibly suppressing her anger. Once she got the bracelet from this idiot, she would no longer need to please her.

As long as she had the bracelet, she could become beautiful and intelligent, and she would have countless rare medicinal herbs, becoming an object of envy and jealousy for everyone, just like Jiang Hanyan in her previous life.

That was right, Jiang Siyuan was a reborn person.

In her previous life, Jiang Hanyan was a winner in life. She was with Tang Xuehai, and by relying on her spiritual energy space, she opened a hospital and made connections with many major capitalists. Furthermore, nourished by the spiritual energy space, the already beautiful Jiang Hanyan became even more stunning. Even as a married woman, she had many admirers who were utterly infatuated with her, willing to give her countless resources.

As for her, she was a failure whom no one mentioned. She had also liked Tang Xuehai, but this man never had eyes for her. Being plain-looking, she failed to get into university and, under her parents' arrangement, married Diao Dekai, who was paralyzed from a car accident.

The Diao family paid a hundred thousand yuan in bride price to marry a wife to their paralyzed son to work like an ox or a horse. Diao Dekai had liked Jiang Hanyan, but Jiang Hanyan had looked down on him. Depressed, he turned to alcohol to drown his sorrows, which resulted in a car accident that left him a cripple and mentally twisted.

After marrying Diao Dekai, Jiang Siyuan suffered in hell every day. She didn't dare to resist, nor could she escape; the Diao family employed many thugs who watched her very closely.

She endured in the Diao house for three years until she truly couldn't take it anymore. She bought rat poison and died along with Diao Dekai. Only after her death did she realize she was mere cannon fodder in a book, and the protagonist of the book was Jiang Hanyan.

The only purpose of a cannon fodder like her was to serve as a foil for the female lead. Jiang Hanyan was beautiful, kind, and lucky—loved by all and a winner in life—while she was an ant in the mud, someone anyone could step on.

On what grounds?

So she swore that if there were a next life, she would definitely snatch Jiang Hanyan's "golden finger" and her man, and make this bitch marry Diao Dekai!

She would rewrite the book so that she and Tang Xuehai became the protagonists, while Jiang Hanyan would be written as a stupid, selfish piece of cannon fodder.

She had returned three months ago. After thinking for an entire night, she decided to imitate the successful experience of Jiang Hanyan from her previous life. She had read that book; she was a reborn person, and as long as she had a golden finger, she would surely be more successful than Jiang Hanyan.

But she had asked for the bracelet several times, and Jiang Hanyan had refused to let go. She couldn't push too hard for fear of raising suspicion.

However, through her instigation, Jiang Hanyan had successfully separated from Tang Xuehai. That night, she had made an arrangement with Diao Dekai: she would coax Jiang Hanyan into drinking a drugged beverage and then hand her over to him.

She simply wanted to see Jiang Hanyan's reputation ruined, falling into the hands of that pervert Diao Dekai to live the hellish life she had lived in her previous life.

But due to a single oversight, Jiang Hanyan ended up rolling into bed with Lu Chen. Diao Dekai held a grudge and didn't pay the money they had agreed upon beforehand.

Jiang Siyuan glanced at Lu Chen, who was working as a coal worker, with an inquiring gaze. Lu Chen was a very mysterious person. She remembered that in the summer, there was a major accident at her third brother's coal mine; a gas explosion caused a collapse, trapping twelve miners underground. The accident caused a huge stir, and even higher authorities sent people to rescue them.

In the end, it was Lu Chen, who was familiar with the mine's terrain, who led the rescue team and successfully brought the people out—not a single person died. Her third brother was very grateful to him and gave him a large sum of money. After Lu Chen paid off his debts, he took Dou Dou and left Fucheng, not returning for many years.

When she heard news of Lu Chen again, he had already become a big boss and was also in Shanghai. In her previous life, Jiang Siyuan had even heard that Lu Chen was one of Jiang Hanyan's admirers. Whenever Jiang Hanyan's company encountered crises, it was always Lu Chen who helped resolve them. Unfortunately, Jiang Hanyan only felt friendship toward him. Lu Chen remained devoted and never married.

She hadn't expected that in this life, through a twist of fate, these two would actually be together and even have a child.

Jiang Siyuan scanned Jiang Hanyan's abdomen, jealousy growing like poisonous weeds. Although this idiot could no longer be with Tang Xuehai, she was still unwilling to accept it.

She would absolutely not let Jiang Hanyan live a good life; she would also snatch away Lu Chen's support!

"What are you standing there dazing about for?"

Jiang Hanyan's voice interrupted Jiang Siyuan's thoughts. She snapped back to reality, gave a gentle, shallow smile, and asked with concern, "I heard you're pregnant. How is your body?"

During the first lunar month, Jiang Siyuan had been busy using the excuse of tutoring to cultivate her relationship with Tang Xuehai. It was only when she went home yesterday that she learned Jiang Hanyan had actually killed Jiang Tianbao's dog and was even defying her eldest uncle, acting like a completely different person.

Jiang Siyuan did not like this change. What she wanted to see was a timid, weak, and stupid Jiang Hanyan, so that she could control her.

"Thanks to you, I'm doing very well now!"

Jiang Hanyan gave a fake smile, her tone mocking.

The original owner was truly stupid, being led around by the nose by Jiang Siyuan. This woman had said that if she didn't want to marry Diao Dekai, she should find a more powerful backer, and even claimed that the most powerful man in Fucheng was named Zhang Wu, and that Diao Dekai would cower upon seeing him.

Fortunately, while the original owner was stupid, her standards were quite high. Seeing that Zhang Wu looked like a toad, she felt displeased. Coincidentally, Lu Chen was also drinking at the karaoke bar that night. The original owner changed her mind on a whim, drugged Lu Chen's drink, and then the two naturally went to a hotel.

The original owner couldn't see through Jiang Siyuan's poisonous heart, but Jiang Hanyan saw it clearly and had no intention of pretending to be close sisters with this woman.

"Hanyan, are you blaming me? It was you who told me about being harassed by Di—"

Jiang Siyuan paused intentionally and glanced at Lu Chen. Men generally disliked being "cuckolded," and if Lu Chen knew that Jiang Hanyan was entangled with Diao Dekai, he would surely be angry.

"Everyone in Fucheng knows Diao Dekai is harassing me. Jiang Siyuan, you're being evasive, saying half a sentence and withholding the other half just to make Lu Chen dissatisfied. I didn't expect you to be such a two-faced hypocrite. I finally see you for who you are!"

The smile vanished from Jiang Hanyan's face, replaced by a coldness like frost.

Jiang Siyuan's expression shifted slightly, but she forced a smile. "Hanyan, you've truly wronged me! I've never thought that way. You're holding a grudge because Tang Xuehai is helping me with tutoring, aren't you? There is really nothing between me and Tang Xuehai. The one he likes in his heart is you; he's helping me tutor only for your sake, really!"

She spoke these words through gritted teeth because they were true.

Although Jiang Hanyan and Lu Chen were together, Tang Xuehai was still unable to let go. While tutoring her, he would often ask about Jiang Hanyan in roundabout ways. This bitch was only a little more beautiful, yet she could make so many men devoted to her.

Once she obtained the space and became beautiful, Tang Xuehai would definitely fall in love with her.

Jiang Siyuan glanced at the bracelet on Jiang Hanyan's wrist, her eyes burning with desire. It was this bracelet; she had to get her hands on it.

Jiang Hanyan was almost nauseated to death. This Jiang Siyuan exuded a "tea-like" aura from head to toe; her manipulative, faux-innocent words were truly disgusting. If she and Lu Chen were a real married couple, what man could endure hearing such things?

With Diao Dekai before her and Tang Xuehai behind her, his wife had so many romantic debts out in the world that the "green grassland" on his head would be vast.

The sound of rebutting the "coal ball" was like drumming, rhythmic and powerful. Lu Chen, carrying a mold with one hand, walked up to Jiang Siyuan and said coldly, "Move aside!"
