The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 59

One year later, she would still divorce Huo Shao Ting. She was not the original owner and could not accept using this skin to steal emotions that did not originally belong to her.

She was once the empress of a nation, with her own dignity and arrogance. She would never allow herself to do such a despicable thing.

The light in her eyes gathered bit by bit, and also became more tenacious.

She would properly thank Huo Shao Ting for everything he had done for her. This year, she would do her best to be a good wife to him and a good daughter-in-law to the Huo family.

But she had to guard her own heart. She could not reveal her identity. Huo Shao Ting was in love with the original owner, it had nothing to do with her.

Rong Dai kept persuading herself inwardly. The sour swelling pain made her heart tremble continuously.

She had never imagined that not long after her rebirth, she would develop almost uncontrollable emotions towards a man.

She was truly fated to come and accept the punishment of the heavens. She was given the same appearance and name but a different soul.

She took a deep breath inwardly to calm the messy thoughts in her mind. Holding Huo Mei Shu's hand, she looked at her with determination in her eyes and said gently, "Mei Shu, don't worry. I will treat Shao Ting well. You can rest assured."

Huo Mei Shu could see the sincerity in her eyes. She smiled immediately, "From now on, Huo Mei Shu only recognizes you as my sister-in-law!"

Rong Dai couldn't help but smile lightly. There was a trace of helplessness in the depths of her eyes.

Not only did she have to be a good wife to Huo Shao Ting and daughter-in-law to the Huo family, but she should also find a wife for Huo Shao Ting who could treat him extremely well.

This would also be her repayment for coming to this world.

Having made up her mind, her state of mind returned to the calmness when she first arrived in this world.

The sisters-in-law talked for a long time until Huo Mei Shu's phone kept beeping. Only then did they stop the topic.

Huo Mei Shu checked her phone. Seeing the news on it, her face became darker and the fire in her eyes made her look murderous!

"What happened?" Rong Dai had slept for two days. Now she was also awake and her phone had long been confiscated and broken by Zuo Ran, so she couldn't see the news of the past two days.

"Nothing. My brother will take care of this. Don't worry about it. What you need to focus on now is recuperating well. Don't forget that you have accepted a drama script. If you don't act in it, Lu Ye will probably go mad and jump off a building."

Huo Mei Shu shook her head. This incident was so thrilling, and that Zuo Ran was so twisted. If she let her sister-in-law see these messy things again, wouldn't it make her feel even worse?

But Rong Dai shook her head and reached out to her, "It's okay. I'll just take a look. I also want to know what people are saying."

This information age was really advanced. You could know everything under the sun without even leaving your home. Most importantly, she could also learn a lot through this little gadget.

This way, she wouldn't expose her secret, and she really enjoyed watching too.

"Although the truth is already out, you should know that there is nothing more convincing than hearing it from your own mouth. Because of my audition before, it affected the reputation of the Huo family. I can no longer evade this matter. I can't keep relying on Shao Ting for everything, he is also very tired."

Rong Dai gently explained.

Firstly, she was really afraid that she would rely too much on Huo Shao Ting and almost fail to guard her heart like this time.

Secondly, she had to learn to accept everything in this world, good or bad. She had to learn to accommodate it all.

"Well... okay, but don't get angry after reading it, sister-in-law."

Seeing her so determined and serious, Huo Mei Shu hesitated for a while before handing her phone to her.

Rong Dai took the phone and browsed the news. As expected, the incident between her and Zuo Ran was the most explosive hot search, firmly ranking first and likely to continue for a while.

She looked at the vicious words on it. Some even told her to die, as if she had dug up their ancestral graves.

But she was not angry at all, on the contrary, her face was very calm.

She had been an empress for thirty years. The sharp edges in her heart had long been smoothed out.

If she was still the seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl just coming of age back then, she would have been furious at such words long ago.

But she wouldn't now. She understood too well the fear of public opinion.

But she also knew very clearly that only by seeing reality clearly and having inner strength could even the most vicious words not hurt her one bit.

Having lived in the harem for thirty years, she understood human nature all too well.

Those who couldn't stand seeing you do well were mostly dissatisfied with life.

It must be jealousy, or just to vent their frustrations. They were just foolish people who followed public opinion blindly, unable to distinguish right from wrong.

Since they couldn't tell fact from fiction and just followed the crowd, their only value was probably in finding some self-worth this way. Why should she care about such petty people? Wouldn't that be lowering herself?

She knew very clearly what she was doing.

"These people are really interesting. They don't know me at all or what I have experienced, yet they are so easily misled and cannot tell right from wrong. It really makes me...sympathize with them."

After Rong Dai finished reading, a faint smile appeared on her still swollen face. Her words were full of pity.

Huo Mei Shu was stunned, "Sister-in-law, you're not angry?"

Rong Dai raised her eyebrows, "Why should I be angry? I'm not familiar with them at all. The important thing is that you all know the truth and believe in this fact. You are the closest people to me. As long as you believe me, I'm invincible."

"These people... are just pitiful creatures with heads but no brains. Why should I get angry over their irresponsible words? If I let them make me ill, who would pay for my medical expenses? Wouldn't it make them even happier if I lived worse? I'm not that stupid."

Huo Mei Shu was dumbfounded. Looking at Rong Dai's indifference, it was as if she had gotten to know her all over again.

"Hmm... very well said, excellent."

Huo Mei Shu nodded after a few seconds, then typed a long string of words on the phone screen, directly copying everything Rong Dai had just said.

Leaning on the hospital bed, Rong Dai's gaze went through the window. She saw the dazzling neon lights of the world outside, such beautiful neon lights that she had never seen before.

The calm state of mind allowed her thoughts to become broader and analyze this matter more rationally.

"Mei Shu, can you do me a favor?"

"What is it? Just tell me, sister-in-law." Huo Mei Shu was still immersed in battling on Weibo.

"I... want a cell phone."

Rong Dai was very embarrassed. She already owed a huge debt, and now she didn't even have a cell phone.

These penniless days were really upsetting.

"No problem. I'll bring one over for you tomorrow. This bitch... I won't believe I can't shut your mouth!"

Huo Mei Shu nodded and looked at the comments on Weibo. Her eyes immediately turned fierce as her fingers flew over the keyboard.

Rong Dai watched with some amusement but didn't stop her. She had attained this state of mind only through paying a huge price. She couldn't expect others to achieve the same just because of her personality.

Looking at her suspended leg, these injuries would take at least two to three months to fully recover. She had to think carefully about what she could do during this time, she couldn't just lie around gathering dust.
