Chương 12: Fraud

Biên tập viên: Henyee Translations

Yuan Shu didn't react much when she heard that Chu Mei had left. She responded and returned to her room.

After Shi Bin finished having his wound treated, he stopped the family doctor who was about to leave. "What is Chu Mei doing at home?"

"I don't know the details, but when Sister Yue called me over this morning, she said that Miss Chu wasn't feeling well and asked me to examine her." The doctor didn't dare to offend the Fourth Young Master, so he replied honestly.

"If she's not feeling well, why didn't she go to the hospital? Why did she come to my house? Is she trying to scam us?"

"That's not it. Miss Chu said that she's pregnant with Sir's child, so she's probably here to ask Madam for money."

Shi Bin's expression darkened as he said coldly, "She's pregnant? If I remember correctly, the incident between her and my brother happened a month ago, right? But she got pregnant just like that. Could it be that she does pregnancy tests every day?"

The family doctor also found it strange. "Then the timing doesn't match. If my examination is correct, Miss Chu is at least three months pregnant. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be Sir's child."

Shi Bin rolled his eyes. Wasn't she trying to take advantage of his brother? He wouldn't let her off easily. He had to ask Chu Mei what she was up to in person.

When he went downstairs, Chu Mei was nowhere to be seen. Even Yuan Shu wasn't there.

"Where is she?" Shi Bin asked with a frown.

"She's been gone for a while. Miss Chu said that she's not feeling well and wants to go to the hospital for a checkup," Li Yue hurriedly replied.

"Oh, what about Yuan Shu?" Shi Bin secretly complained that it was all Yuan Shu's fault for mentioning that she was his sister-in-law again and again when she was educating him. He had almost been led astray.

In the past, he had always called Yuan Shu by her name or used "Hey" instead. Now, he didn't dare to call her by her full name in front of Yuan Shu, but he didn't want to embarrass himself by calling her sister-in-law in front of the servants, so he felt very conflicted.

Li Yue didn't notice and replied, "Madam returned to her room to rest. She even told us not to disturb her."

Shi Bin didn't pursue the matter. He turned around and went upstairs to his room.

Yuan Shu wasn't resting in bed. She was sitting at the desk with the book she had found in the bathroom in her hand.

This world was too unfamiliar to her, be it food, clothing, accommodation, or those fancy Western equipment. However, although these things were unfamiliar, they weren't complicated.

In just a day, she became roughly familiar with them. This was a good thing. At least it showed that her understanding wasn't wrong.

She needed to understand and explore the current world. She didn't need to worry about her original family.

Her husband had died early and she had no children, but she raised all the children in the clan.

When she was conferred the title of Madam, the children had already grown up and could fend for themselves. On careful thought, even if she really couldn't return to her era, there was nothing to regret.

With this thought in mind, Yuan Shu flipped open the book in her hand.

If she wanted to understand an era well, she had to read more books about this era. Although some words seemed to be vaguely different in terms of spelling, she could still guess the general meaning based on the context.

Wait, why were the words upside down? Yuan Shu flipped through the pages again in confusion and realized that the order of reading was different.

The people of this era actually flipped through books from right to left and read from left to right. Yuan Shu remembered this and made a mental note to pay more attention in the future, so others wouldn't find out and make fun of her.

The tea in the cup gradually turned cold, and the sky darkened. Yuan Shu finally put down the book in her hand and finished reading it.

Just as she placed the book on the table, it actually disappeared into thin air. Yuan Shu didn't react much to this. She was already numb to all the shock.

That book was similar to the books she had read in the past. They were all storybooks. The difference was that the female lead of the book was called Liu Lan, and the male lead was called Shi Xiao. The names of the other supporting actors matched the names of the people Yuan Shu knew. Among them, Shi Xiao had an ex-wife who pestered him. Her name was Yuan Shu.

When Yuan Shu saw these names, she vaguely sensed that something was wrong. It was only when she saw that the plot of Shi Xiao marrying Yuan Shu was almost exactly the same as her memories that she realized that she hadn't come to another dynasty, but had entered a book. Moreover, in this book, she didn't have a good ending!

Chương 13: Questioning Her

Biên tập viên: Henyee Translations

After the male protagonist in the book disappeared, he was saved by an innocent and cute girl called Liu Lan. Liu Lan's kindness and bravery moved the male protagonist, so after his injuries healed, the male protagonist brought Liu Lan back. He wanted to divorce Yuan Shu and promised to compensate her.

However, in the book, Yuan Shu refused. In order to ruin the relationship between the male protagonist and Liu Lan, she used all sorts of dirty methods. In the end, she was despised by everyone, and her family was destroyed.

Yuan Shu was shocked that she had actually entered a book and knew the plot.

However…

All of this had nothing to do with her!

Her husband fell in love with someone else and wanted a divorce? What did this have to do with her? She didn't want to be a roadblock on the path of others pursuing love. If that Shi Xiao wanted a divorce, so be it. She should read more books now and integrate into this world as soon as possible to find a way out for herself.

Her life had never been decided by others!

Just like that, other than eating, washing up, and sleeping, Yuan Shu spent the rest of the time reading in her room. From history and politics to business management, she was fascinated by all the information in the books. Yuan Shu was like a tree, doing her best to absorb nutrition to enrich herself.

A week passed in the blink of an eye. Shi Bin finally couldn't sit still anymore.

Another morning, when Yuan Shu was about to return to her room after breakfast, Shi Bin stopped her.

"What have you been doing all this time? You rarely leave your room or the house. Are you going to shut yourself in your room?"

Yuan Shu blinked in confusion. "I've been reading. Isn't it good to be at home? I can drink tea under the air conditioner. Why would I go out when it's so hot outside?"

Shi Bin was speechless. Just as he was about to retort, the phone in the living room rang.

The maid picked it up. After a while, she carefully handed the phone to Yuan Shu.

"Madam, it's a call from the Tan family. They said that they need you to answer it."

"Tan Family? Tan Zhao?" Yuan Shu thought about it for a while. Tan Zhao was the only person she knew from the Tan family.

"Damn it! Did that fool Tan Zhao really complain to his parents? What a loser!" Shi Bin was a little speechless. He had never looked for his parents after fighting ever since the third grade. He didn't expect Tan Zhao to be such a sore loser.

Shi Bin snatched the phone over and said into the receiver, "Tan Zhao, is this all you've got? You tattletaled to your parents after you lost in a fight?"

The person on the other end of the phone wasn't Tan Zhao, but his second oldest brother, Tan Jing.

"Fourth Master? Please hand the phone to Madam," Tan Jing said coldly.

How could Shi Bin give the phone to Yuan Shu? It was his fault. Yuan Shu had already helped him clean up the mess once. How could he let Yuan Shu clean up his mess again and again?!

Shi Bin took the phone closer and suppressed his anger as he said, "Just look for me. It was Tan Zhao who spouted nonsense first and slandered my brother. Now, you only need to tell me if he's crippled or hospitalized. We'll pay the medical fees that should be compensated. There's no need to trouble my sister-in-law with such a small matter."

Before Shi Bin could hear Tan Jing's reply, the phone was taken away by Yuan Shu.

"Second Young Master Tan." Yuan Shu took the phone and said, "Why are you looking for me?"

As Shi Bin looked at Yuan Shu, who was holding the phone, he didn't know what to say.

He was originally worried that Yuan Shu would show fear in front of Tan Jing and be at a loss, which would embarrass the Shi family, so he wanted to take responsibility. But in the end?

Why was Yuan Shu even bolder than him?

She had beaten up the young master of the Tan family. Now that he was questioning her, she actually asked him why he was looking for her?

The person on the other end of the phone didn't expect Yuan Shu to be so arrogant. He paused for a moment before saying again, "Madam, I'm Tan Zhao's second brother. May I ask if you were the one who beat up my brother?"

"She didn't hit me! I fell down myself. I didn't want to get up, so I rolled on the ground!" Tan Zhao's voice came from the receiver.

"Shut up!" Tan Jing didn't believe Tan Zhao's obvious lie.

After he returned from a business trip, he saw Tan Zhao limping. Only then did he find out that Tan Zhao had been beaten.

Due to his concern for his younger brother, he asked his secretary who stayed behind. He found out that Tan Zhao and Shi Bin fought, then got sent to the police station and returned to the Shi family's house with Shi Bin after that. When Tan Zhao returned, his body was swollen from the beating.
