I became the Counterpart of the Winner in a Period Novel-Chapter 398 - 338: Fortune-Bringing Boy (Part 3)

If it weren’t for the deceitful Lin Haiyang seducing a married woman, caught and reported by her husband on the spot, his father’s misdeeds wouldn’t have been exposed.

During this time, Jiang Mingyue returned to Qingshan Village and found out that Jiang Beishan had made her a pair of beautiful cloth shoes, which were left with Mrs. Jiang.

This truly surprised Jiang Mingyue.

According to Mrs. Jiang, Jiang Beishan was living well: her parents-in-law treated her like their own daughter, her sisters-in-law took good care of her, and most importantly, her husband, Wei Houping, cherished her dearly. She was also several months pregnant, and everything was progressing positively.

Except for Wu Cuilan and her husband.

The family matriarch was taken to Beijing by the fourth child, leaving Wu Cuilan alone, suddenly losing her hope for life. At this time, she thought of her daughter, ran to Liu Village overnight, but fell down a mountain slope en route, hitting her head. She was found three days later by two cowherds, and her body had already decomposed.

Despite being estranged, Jiang Beishan arranged the funeral for Wu Cuilan.

At the same time, Jiang Zhenghui’s judgment came out.

Besides embezzling communal assets, he was also identified by several people from Liu Village as the culprit of the forest fire three years ago in Liu Village, which killed three elderly people living alone. Jiang Zhenghui’s malicious arson left him beyond saving.

Jiang Beishan, once again pregnant, organized another funeral.

Jiang Ming’an felt it was necessary to inform Old Mrs. Jiang about this.

He thought a phone call lacked sincerity, so he made a trip to Beijing in person.

Later, it was heard that the old lady’s illness had suddenly worsened.

Jiang Ming’an had left a message for his father: if Old Mrs. Jiang passed away, it would be better not to bring her back to her birthplace. Given her reputation, she should be buried away from home, and he would cover all the costs.

Having not seen Yan Jinzhi for several months, Jiang Mingyue missed him even more and conceived the idea of finding him.

For this reason, she took a month’s leave from the Gan Institute.

At night, she entered her space to prepare things, unexpectedly being greeted by a long-missed person.

"Yan Jinzhi? You—"

Yan Jinzhi immediately embraced her, the familiar warmth in his arms leaving him speechless, only the ever-tighter embrace betraying his excitement.

"Yan Jinzhi, if you don’t let go, you’re going to strangle me."

Yan Jinzhi quickly loosened his grip, yet was reluctant to let go of the girl.

He held her on his lap, all the fatigue leaving his body.

"Sorry, I was supposed to buy a yard during my last break, but something came up again, and I only managed to buy it today. I tried to come as soon as I was free and it worked."

"You really succeeded. It seems it’s not just the house I bought that can teleport; yours can too."

"It’s registered under your name."

Jiang Mingyue: "...Yan Jinzhi, with this, you can easily win a girl’s heart."

"Did I win yours? My heart belongs to you, and it will for a lifetime."

This unexpected confession was touching; moreover, she had already recalled the events of her past life.

"You don’t need to win my heart. My heart has long been engraved with the name Yan Jinzhi."

Reunited lovers have endless things to talk about.

The next day, Yan Jinzhi still had work to do, so Jiang Mingyue accompanied him to the small yard there.

The village on the Gobi Desert was different from the village of Qingshan; each place had its differences in style.

While Yan Jinzhi went to work at the base, Jiang Mingyue strolled through the village.

"Sister, are you a fairy?" a curious little boy dressed in local ethnic attire stood in front of her.

Jiang Mingyue thought of Xiao Ran and immediately felt fond of the boy before her.

"No, sister isn’t a fairy, but sister does like sweet-talking children." Jiang Mingyue, in a good mood, took out two White Rabbit candies and gave them to the boy.
