"How's it going? Has the person woken up?"

"No, she's been acting foolish since she awoke. Did she hit her head so hard it damaged her brain?"

"Ah, that Lv Aimei really doesn't know how to behave. She brazenly exposed the affair between Little Song and Tang Bilian in front of Little Li. Isn't that akin to stabbing someone directly in the heart?"

Lying on the bed with eyes closed, Li Qingran sighed to the heavens!

After twenty years of struggle, she had finally obtained an esteemed 'Best Actress' award. They had all gone out to celebrate, but on the journey, in order to avoid a child who suddenly dashed across the road, she had unexpectedly died.

A flash of white light, and she then found herself transmigrating into the body of a timid and weak military wife who shared her name.

The original host was quite a pitiful person.

An orphan from an early age, she was taken in by a widow named Zhang from their village. However, being rejected from a young age she developed a timid, docile personality, unable to stand up for herself.

A year ago, the old widow fell seriously ill, and to protect the original host, she took advantage of the gratitude the Song family owed her husband, and arranged for the son of the Song family to marry her.

Naturally, the second and fourth sons of the Song family were unwilling, so the responsibility fell onto the uncared for third son, Song Yan.

Song Yan was a soldier, who was away on duty. His parents made the decision on his behalf and married him to the original host. Preferring convenience, they dropped her off at Song Yan's military base.

Leader of the base had never seen such a case, but had nonetheless arranged accommodation in the military compound for her.

The original host was highly worried, in her mind, Song Yan was a terrifying figure, dark-skinned and strong, like a large black bear.

Fortunately, Song Yan was away on duty the whole year, allowing her to survive the year in fear.

She never would have thought that one morning, while she went out to buy groceries, she would encounter the notorious shrew, Lv Aimei, of the compound.

Lv Aimei went on a tirade, saying that Song Yan was originally supposed to be together with Tang Bilian, the army belle, implying that the original character was the mistress.

She was convinced that Song Yan would divorce her when he returns the day after tomorrow.

Hearing this, the original character, startled and nursing a sprained ankle, lost her footing and stumbled into the roadside flower bed.

There she was, bleeding profusely, scared and panicked. The thought of Song Yan returning meant a death sentence to her.

Li Qingran couldn't help but heave a sigh.

Ah...

"Comrade Li, are you awake?"

Hearing the voice outside, Li Qingran recognized it as the voice of the regiment leader's wife, who likely came over because of the ongoing commotion.

Gathering her emotions, Li Qingran managed to crack a weak smile, "Sister-in-law, I'm fine."

Chang Wenjing felt a bit awkward. Song's wife was quite nice, albeit a bit unsightly.

Dark-skinned, thin, and tiny.

She looked like a half-grown child.

Thinking about her past, she couldn't help feeling a bit sympathetic.

Her voice softened a bit, "Li, don't listen to what Comrade Lv Aimei is saying nonsense. You can rest assured, we understand what kind of person Song is. Since you've already married him, he definitely won't involve himself with other female comrades."

The moment her voice trailed off, there were scattered noises coming from outside the door.

Intermingled were a few shouts from women.

Li Qingran frowned, were these people here to stir up trouble?

Steel herself against the overwhelming shock that made her body go weak, she said, "Sister-in-law, could you help me out to see what's going on?"

Then, a furious scolding was heard echoing in the room.

"I told you to shut up, now get in here!"

Lu Aimei was shoved - staggering a few steps - by a man who was somewhat dark-skinned and donned in military fatigues. A squared face was what set him apart.

"Chen Datian! You son of a... why the hell am I apologizing? She tripped herself, why does that involve me at all, you spineless wimp!"

The man's face flushed a vivid red, and with clearly bulging veins on his forehead, he lashed out to slap the woman.

"Enough!"

A figure walked in through the door, like a small mountain that took everyone's breath away.

Li Qingran lifted her head.

I can't believe this!

Is this Song Yan???

Tall and straight, clad in a military-green shirt, with a rugged charm. His jawline was sharp, extending to his neck and his body exuded a powerful and solemn military aura.

The entirety of his elongated face was striking- sharp eyebrows, deep-set eyes, a high-bridged nose, thin lips, and a pair of eyes that were sharp yet deep.

The original host, also considered a real gem, just compared him to a bear?

Song Yan looked at his wife, whom he had not seen even a year after their marriage, a flicker of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Fearing to startle her, Song Yan's voice softened a bit with a touch of firmness.

"Chen DaTian, we only raise our fists to our enemies!"

"Song Yan, I'm really sorry. It's all because of your sister-in-law, her mouth is not good. Otherwise, she wouldn't cause harm to your younger sister."

With that, he dragged someone over.

"Hurry up and apologize to your younger sister!"

Lu Aimei was about to say something, but was sternly glared at by Chen DaTian.

She turned her body and glanced at Li Qingran, who was standing stunned.

Her voice was as tiny as a mosquito hum.

"I'm sorry!"

"Little Li, you see..."

Li Qingran cleared her throat lightly, casting a casual glance at Lu Aimei.

Though the original host's cause of death was due to her own lack of courage, Lu Aimei was undeniably the fuse.

And according to the original host's memory, Lu Aimei frequently bullied her, took advantage of her at every turn, and even spread rumors about her everywhere.

Since I have taken over the original owner's body, I also must stand up for her.

"Sister-in-law, Elder Brother Chen, I can forgive Sister-in-law Chen."

Upon hearing this, everyone relaxed a bit. Forgiveness was good.

Before they could speak again,

"But everyone is aware that our family's Old Song has been away on mission for a year, and we had not met since our marriage. But in the mouth of Sister-in-law, I am a bad woman who destroys others' marital fate."

As she spoke, a trace of sadness emerged from Li Qingran’s repressed eyes.

"I don't mind, but our Old Song still needs to live in the squadron in the future. Aren't those words spoken by Sister-in-law Chen a blatant smear on him? How is our Old Song supposed to face others? Moreover, the Comrade Tang involved in this, his reputation is also ruined, isn't this akin to murdering someone?"

Her eloquent speech silenced the entire room.

Li Qingran lowered her eyes. Hmm, you want to battle with me? I have plenty of experience performing this kind of play.

As predicted, Lv Aimei's face turned beet red, while Chen Datian looked as if he was constipated.

"Shut up! I just told the truth!..."

Before she could move, the hand that intended to push Li Qingran stopped midway in the air.

"You, you... Little Song, that...”

Song Yan's face darkened slightly, his eyes carried a warning.

Even Chen Datian was taken aback, pulling Lv Aimei towards him.

"Why is Song Yan so furious? This young woman doesn't even look that good. Why is he so protective of her already?"

However, recognizing the reality of the situation, the speaker turned towards Li Qingran, "Little sister, you're right. Whatever opinion you have on this matter, we'll follow accordingly."

With a wronged expression, Li Qingran lifted her eyes, "I just want to clear my name. I'd like for sister-in-law to write a self-criticism, read it out loud to us in public, and apologize to elder Song and comrade Tang."

"You!" Lu Aimei's eyes turned bloodshot. To make her read her wrongdoings in public—it was akin to a knife through her heart! She hadn't realized this supposedly insignificant person could be so ruthless!

Even Chen Datian was a bit troubled, "Little sister, don't you think you're being a bit too severe?"

"Severe?" Song Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.

At this point, Chang Wenjing, sensing the tense atmosphere, decided to step up.

"Chen, Lu, Comrade Li nearly suffocated today."

Upon hearing these words, Chen Datian fell silent.

His clenched fist slowly relaxed.

"Alright. We apologize." He turned to look at Song Yan. "Song Yan, we're sorry!" Then he left the room, pulling Lu Aimei behind him.

"Okay, little Song, now that it's come to this, I'll report to the captain when I get back. You should take good care of little Li!"

"Thank you for your efforts."
