After rebirth, I became the widow of my mortal enemy

Chi Feng followed in, looking apologetic and embarrassed: "Sir, I didn't stop him."

Yan Mobai raised his sleeves and motioned for him to go down.

Chi Feng bowed and retreated, closing the study door behind him as he left.

Yan Mobai placed the pen in his hand on the inkstone and looked up at the woman who was standing in the room staring at him.

He narrowed his eyes slightly.

In fact, he has been thinking about a question these days.

If the dream he had was his past life, he was reborn two years ago after he died of poisoning during a caesarean section to remove the map.

Then why is it different now than in the previous life?

In his previous life, he and she had fought behind the scenes for three years without ever meeting each other. The first time they met was the day they killed each other to seize the iron mine.

According to the trajectory of the previous life, he and she should still be in the second year of their behind-the-scenes battle.

But she appeared in the Marquis' Mansion and appeared beside him.

In addition, in the past few days, he also compared what happened in the two lives.

He was surprised to find that as long as something had nothing to do with this woman, it would still happen the same as in his previous life.

And every thing that is different from the previous life is more or less, directly or indirectly related to this woman.

Why did she become the center of changes?

He had a bold guess.

Could it be that she was also reborn?

There were two things in particular that made him even more suspicious.

One thing is this trip to Jiangnan to persuade Ge Mingshu.

In his previous life, Ge Mingshu rejected the olive branches from King Ning and King Kang, and was conquered by King An, only because King An accidentally saved Ge Mingshu's daughter who fell into the water in Yanbo Town.

But in this life, the person who saved Ge Mingshu's daughter was her.

Of course, this could just be a coincidence.

But since she posted a notice asking people to go to the Lotus Inn to find King Kang, King An was delayed by the people and did not go to the night market.

Until she happened to go to the night market and happened to appear on the bridge.

Then when the little girl fell into the water from the bridge, she jumped off the bridge to save her almost the next moment.

A normal person wouldn't have had time to react, and would have needed some time to react, but she had already gone into the water.

He had to wonder if all this was premeditated.

She seemed to be waiting for the moment when the little girl fell into the water.

If she knew about the trick in which King Kang asked the Taoist priest to make a black snake appear out of the sand, and if someone replaced the "Spring Flowers Painting" with the "Guan Gong Conquers the Dragon Painting", it would be because she was King Kang's person and knew King Kang's plan.

What about this matter?

She was not King An's woman, and the girl's fall into the water was not a pre-planned event, but an accident.

How did she know in advance what hadn't happened yet?

Only those who have experienced it will know.

Thinking about it now, when she saw him go into the water, she was so angry and refused to give the little girl to him. The reason was not because she cared about his injury, but because she was afraid that he would take the credit.

Another thing is about this year’s spring examination.

This year's top three are also different from previous lives.

In the previous life, they were first and second, and this year they are second and third.

This year, Yan Kunpeng suddenly emerged and won the first place.

And Yan Kunpeng also has a close relationship with her.

In his previous life, after the results of the spring examination were announced, the emperor made multiple copies of the answer sheets of the top three and let all the princes study them.

He had seen it at Prince Ning's place, and she must have seen it at Prince Kang's place as well.

In order to verify his guess, as soon as he returned to Beijing yesterday, he went to check the answer sheets of this year's candidates, especially Yan Kunpeng's.

He discovered that Yan Kunpeng's answer sheet combined all the advantages of the top three answer sheets in his previous life.

This is impossible.

It’s not that Yan Kunpeng doesn’t have such insights, but because these three people think in completely different ways, it’s impossible for them to appear in one person at the same time.

It is very likely that this is because he has seen the answers of the three people in his previous life.

Yan Kunpeng had no chance to see the answer sheet in his previous life. Now, the only person around him who has the chance to see the answer sheet in his previous life is her.

Therefore, he had reason to suspect that it was she who told Yan Kunpeng these things.

He even suspected that the two of them were talking about this when they met on Tianzhifang that day.

He remembered that when they gathered in the yard, there was a stain of ink on Yan Kunpeng's chest.

Although the private rooms of Tianzhifang are equipped with the four treasures of the study, the ink is in the form of ink sticks. Only when the guests need to write something will they add water and grind the ink sticks into ink themselves.

Now that she thought about it, she actually intended to develop Yan Kunpeng into her own person at that time.

Seeing that he had been staring at her without saying anything, with his black eyes as deep as the sea, Ning Miao spoke first.

"Master Yan, do you have nothing to say?"

Yan Mobai came back to his senses, retracted his gaze, and said indifferently: "What does the eldest sister-in-law want to hear?"

Ning Miao frowned slightly and felt that something was wrong with him.

He left her at the dock and returned to Beijing first.

It was understandable that he didn't see Chunlan when she came to return the book. But when she came in person to deliver the sock bottom pastry, he still didn't see her.

Now she is called sister-in-law.

She was clearly no longer his sister-in-law. Others didn't know it, but he was the one who asked her to write the divorce papers, how could he not know?

It wasn't in front of anyone at the moment, so there was no need for him to put on an act. Why did he still call her like that?

"I'll wait for you to give me an explanation." Ning Miao said.

Yan Mobai had a blank expression on his face: "What do you mean? You don't want to take your socks cake?"

Finally, he continued to talk to himself: "Others may not know, but doesn't my elder sister know that I just came back from Jiangnan? Do I still need to eat my elder sister's socks cake?"

"You know I'm not asking that." Ning Miao said angrily.

"I don't know." Yan Mobai's eyes and tone were cold.

After saying this, he picked up the pen again and lowered his eyes to review the official documents.

Ning Miao looked at him and felt that he was so strange.

It wasn't that he was unfamiliar, it was just that he had returned to the way he was when she first entered the Marquis' Mansion.

"Okay, since you don't know, let me tell you." Ning Miao walked to a chair nearby and sat down.

"We clearly agreed that I would wait for you at the dock and that we would go to see Ge Mingshu together. Why haven't you shown up yet?"

Yan Mobai didn't raise his eyebrows, nor did he stop writing. He said calmly, "Because I looked at the map, the water route is too far, and the land route is faster, so I changed to the land route."

Ning Miao was speechless: "...Then you should have asked someone to notify me. I have been waiting for you."

"Sorry, I was in a hurry to return to the capital after meeting Ge Mingshu, and forgot about this."

Ning Miao: “…”

Seeing that he said sorry but there was no apology on his face or in his tone, Ning Miao felt even more angry.

Just as I was about to say something to him, I heard him explain himself.

"Song Xiao, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, sent me a letter by pigeon, saying that the perpetrator of the recent robbery of disaster relief silver swallowed a note of important information passed by his accomplice. Song Xiao cut open the man's abdomen and took out the note. The information on the note is shocking. I need to return to Beijing as soon as possible to make a decision."

Yan Mobai said as he looked up at Ning Miao.

Ning Miao's pupils trembled.

Another caesarean section was performed to remove the sample.

Yan Mobai saw her trembling.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Sure enough, he was reborn.
