1 After My Rebirth My Husband Is a Little Mischievous

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Longyue looked silently at the handsome young man sitting opposite her.

The light in the room was a little dim. Not far away was a lit oil lamp. The flame flickered gently and reflected the teenager's dark and bright eyes.

He was arranging a bunch of messy threads with a serious expression. On the other side was a torn shirt. He was probably mending clothes.

Longyue tapped her head. She was still a little disoriented. She tried to widen her eyes and look at the familiar yet unfamiliar surroundings. She felt like she was dreaming.

The old man had said that if one had great aspirations before death, they could reincarnate.

As she looked at her husband's youthful face under the candlelight, a tear involuntarily streaked across Longyue's face.

It was salty.

How nice.

"I'm reborn!" she thought.

The scene that flashed before her was of herself fighting with Madam Zhang Meihua next door and getting her clothes ripped a month after she married the third son of the Li family.

At that time, her husband was meticulously mending her clothes just like now.

In an instant, the grievance in her heart surged like tidewater, and Longyue almost cried.

She was framed by her half-sister who spread the lie that she had an affair with someone. Her father felt that it was an insult to his family, so he arranged for her to be married to the third son of the Li family, the poorest family in his hometown in Qingshui Village!

There was no bridal sedan chair, no ceremonial betrothal. Just like that, the daughter of the first wife of the Minister's family was forced to marry into the Li family, which was a poor family!

There was hatred in her heart!

She was very mean to the Li family and her husband. She often quarreled and fought with them. She did not have her parents to back her up, so she used her resentment as a defense mechanism. Unexpectedly, she was mocked by the villagers as the 'wicked woman of the Li family'!

However, never in her wildest dreams would she have imagined that this poor husband of hers, whom she looked down on, would actually go from being a junior official to an illustrious deputy prime minister just a few years after they divorced!

He was decisive in killing people. In front of her and her only, he had always been submissive!

"Pa!"

Longyue slapped herself in anger. "Why was I so blind in my previous life?" she berated herself. She had treated her evil sister like a treasure and the man who had treated her well like trash.

This slap was very loud, startling Li Qingmu, who was busy working. He hurriedly put down the work in his hands and nervously held Longyue's hand.

"Wife, why did you hit yourself? Is there something wrong with me? Wife, if you are angry, you can hit me…"

A pair of fair hands covered his mouth before he could finish talking.

Longyue widened her almond-shaped eyes and glared at him. This man was always so weak when he was with her, and he even liked to pick on his own faults. "This is really annoying!" she thought.

"A man should be assertive!"

"This has nothing to do with you. It was a mosquito that was annoying me!"

Li Qingmu blinked and felt that her wife was a little different this morning. In the past, she would get angry at him even if he did not say much, but today, she seemed gentle.

He was slightly stunned. Looking at him, Longyue said with displeasure, "Why are you staring at me? Could it be that you want to see a flower?"

"My wife is beautiful like a flower."

"…"

Longyue giggled. She had never realized that this man had such a mischievous side.

Yes, she must have detested him in her previous life.

He lowered his head and said faintly, "My wife is different from yesterday."

Longyue was secretly happy. How could she be the same after she was reborn? In her previous life, she had abandoned him like he was trash. In this life, she must hold on to him tightly.

Then she thought of something which might be a thorn in their hearts—they had to remove it as soon as possible.

So she pretended to be pitiful and said, "I was framed by my younger sister and lost my chance at a good marriage. I was even chased out of the capital by my biological father to his hometown in the countryside. I have resentment in my heart. I know that it's wrong to vent my anger on you guys these past few days, but I'm more worried that my husband will be biased against me because of those rumors…

So, do you mind those rumors?"

After Longyue was forced to marry Li Qingmu, that 'good sister' brought some 'rumors' to the village. When she first got married, ugly rumors about her being an adulterous woman were circulating around the village. The Li family had not had any peace, and her own temper had also become very bad.

In her previous life, she was still a virgin when she was with Li Qingmu. He treated her very well, but there was no intimate relationship between them. Now that she thought about it, this was definitely related to the rumors!

Now that she was reborn, she had to remove this thorn first!

As she spoke, she raised her head and secretly glanced at the man. Her petite and charming appearance was seductive. Li Qingmu felt his heart skip a beat.

He felt that staring at her like that was a little too much. He quickly lowered his head to hide his awkwardness. "My wife is the daughter of a Minister. It's my honor to be able to marry her. I only want to live happily with my wife. I don't dare to have any other thoughts."

Longyue glanced at him coldly. She had just realized that this stupid man was very cautious with his words. At first she thought that he was being considerate, but after mulling over it, she realized that he had deflected her question.

Longyue knew that she was innocent, but others did not think so. "Did his words imply that he minded the rumors?" she wondered.

Looking at his calm expression, Longyue knew that this man was deep in thought.

"Hmph, interesting!" she thought.

"In my previous life, you showed me your weak side. In this life, I must tear apart that mask of yours to see what's inside!"

"Wife, why are you staring at me? Don't tell me you think that there's something wrong with my face?"

"Uh…"

Longyue realized that she had indeed been staring at him for a long time. He had said this to dodge her question. "This person is petty and not kind at all!" she thought.

However, this man had such a pleasing appearance. If it weren't for the fact that his family was too poor and he had a father who was on medication all year round, many girls in the village would have thrown themselves at him.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

At this moment, there was a series of urgent knocks on the door, followed by a rough voice. "People of the Li family, get out here quickly! Otherwise, I'll smash your door!"

This voice was very loud, breaking the silence of the morning. The Li family did not stir.

Longyue pouted. "What a bunch of cowards."

Her husband was the third son and had two elder brothers, one younger brother, and one younger sister. Her mother-in-law was weak and was often reprimanded by her second daughter-in-law. After Longyue married into the family, she reprimanded her mother-in-law too. Her father-in-law was not very mobile and so did not care about anything. Whenever something happened to his eldest and second sons, he would be afraid. Her fourth brother-in-law was only a ten-year-old child.

Longyue covered her face. In her previous life, she did not care about this family, so she did not do anything and even fanned the flames of trouble. However, in this life, she wanted to live happily with Li Qingmu, but she realized that this family was not up to par…

"Hurry up, get the f*ck out here. A bunch of bastards. Useless cowards, useless trash. You don't dare to bear the consequences of your mistake. Pfft!"

"Bam! Bam!"

The scolding was very unpleasant. The mother-in-law, Li Zhou, was afraid that the neighbors would hear it and she would be too ashamed to face them. So she said to the eldest son who had popped his head out, "First Son, aren't you going out to take a look? What's going on? Why is there such a big commotion?"

"Mom, this has nothing to do with our Eldest branch!" The eldest daughter-in-law, Madam Wang, said.

"Mom, I don't know anything either!" Second Brother, Li Qinghai, quipped.

Longyue looked at this family with disdain and was about to push open the door to step out when she realized she was a tad too late. Her man had already stepped out.

Her eyes lit up. Only then did she remember that in her previous life, when something happened to the Li family, it was always her husband who intervened. He was the only person who took responsibility for the Li family, but it was not appropriate for him to interfere with such matters. Longyue chased after him without hesitation.

She raised her almond-shaped eyes slightly and said in a mocking tone, "Husband, why are you, a grown man, meddling in these women's affairs? At this time, it should be me—the wicked woman of the Li family—who should step in!"
