Chapter 1: Showmanship

Shen Qian Cai opened his eyes, and in a haze, he caught a glimpse of a white figure swaying back and forth.

In an instant, from elderly ladies and gentlemen to young children with runny noses, everyone rushed forward, surrounding Shen Qian's wooden bed in several layers both inside and out

Angel in white

After Yan Zhiqing finished speaking, she left behind a stunned Shen Qian Cai and turned to leave

Shen Qian Cai sighed and revealed a bitter smile, saying: "They have all left. Beautiful lady, what brings you to stay?"

After the shock, Shen Qian Cai let out a bitter laugh and thought to himself: "If you want to play me, you need to come up with a new trick. I am tired of both the script and the act of this fake daughter-in-law."

Hehe

Shen Qian Cai looked at the more than ten people in confusion. When his gaze landed on a woman in the center, dressed in a flowing white garment and wearing a white cloth headband, he was instantly taken aback. This was not because he recognized her, but because she was extraordinarily beautiful, to the point of being shameful. Her eyebrows resembled willow blades, her eyes sparkled like stars, and beneath her straight, delicate, and refined nose were two small, neither too thick nor too thin, red lips. Coupled with the heroic aura she exuded, it was as if she was declaring to the world, "Do not compete with me in beauty; I fear you cannot withstand it!"

Seeing that Young Master Shen Er had become like this, how could anyone remain calm? One after another, they chattered and argued, creating a noisy uproar in the small room

The more than ten individuals from www.hetushu.com all stared at Shen Qian Cai as if he were a monster. Only Doctor Xu, with a troubled expression, slowly approached the bedside, grasped Shen Qian Cai's wrist, and with three fingers placed on it, immediately raised his eyebrows and remarked, "Although the pulse is weak, the body shows no major issues. How come you haven't died?"

"Could amnesia also lead to a change in character?" Yan Zhiqing thought to herself, unable to help but let out a bitter laugh. She said to Shen Qian Cai in a calm tone, "Even I have forgotten, it seems you truly have lost your memory."

Shen Qian Cai's character is just like his name, which sounds like "saving money." In reality, he is as stingy as a miser, reaching the extreme of being frugal. As the saying goes, "birds of a feather flock together," his unscrupulous friends cannot possibly be generous. The answer, of course, is no, which leaves Shen Qian Cai puzzled about who is truly putting on a show.

"Who is it?" Shen Qian Cai inquired.

What? Resurrecting the dead?

Alright, everyone, let's leave him in peace. As long as he comes back to life, that's all that matters. Let's go back and change our clothes; this outfit feels rather ominous.

Shen Qian Cai shook his head, and immediately, someone cupped his face and turned it around. He caught sight of a thick, greasy face, and heard the thick lips on that face moving: "I am Fat Jiu, your good buddy. Have you really forgotten me?"

Dr. Xu stood up and turned to the crowd, saying: "I have practiced medicine for many years and consider myself to have seen all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases in the world. However, this is the first time I have encountered someone who, after being dead for a day, has come back to life. Truly, the affairs of the world are unpredictable, and the will of heaven is hard to fathom"

Your newlywed wife, Yan Zhiqi

Today, the residents of the Shen Family Courtyard have gained some insight, as the owner, Shen Yujia, has astonishingly come back to life after being dead for a day. This should have been a rare and joyous event throughout the ages; however, soon everyone became disheartened, for the resurrected Second Young Master Shen turned out to be suffering from amnesia

After much contemplation, Shen Qian Cai decided to face the upcoming situation with a calm mind. Regardless of the tactics employed by the other party, he resolved to maintain his composure, waiting for those individuals to realize that their attempts to unsettle him were futile, at which point he would naturally reveal himself.

When Shen Qian's vision became clear, he was momentarily stunned, for he saw that the white figure he had just seen was actually a person dressed in a plain white ancient costume, with a slender waist and graceful demeanor, moving with delicate steps as she busied herself in the quaint and elegant little room

Shen Qian Cai firmly believed that someone was out to get him, but who could be behind this scheme? Shen Qian Cai thought of all his unscrupulous friends, yet he could not figure out who was responsible. After all, the cost of putting on this show was not insignificant, especially since they had hired this fake daughter-in-law. If they didn't have a few coins in their pockets, would anyone take care of them? And did they even have that kind of spare money?

Just when Shen Qian was unable to bear the financial strain, he suddenly heard a loud female voice that could still be easily distinguished even amidst the quacking of a thousand ducks.

"Is Zhen alive again?" a group of people behind Dr. Xu asked.

"I can't believe it, I've forgotten everything, how can I still remember this?" exclaimed Pang Jiu, his mouth agape in astonishment

This person is too beautiful; any man would be unable to resist. I don't even know who invited this little star Ming. There must be cameras in this room, so I cannot show any signs of weakness

Shen Qian Cai pushed his hand away, leaned against the bed railing, and said: "Can you stay a bit farther away from me? You have bad breath"

Shen Qian was stunned on the spot, completely unable to understand what was happening

What is this?

Shen Qian Cai heard it clearly; this was the voice of an extraordinary beauty. When he poked his head out from under the blanket, he happened to see the woman smiling at him.

At the moment the woman turned her head, Shen Qian Cai had just caught a glimpse of her delicate face. Before he could even comment, he was startled by her terrified voice

Dr. Xu, a little old man in his sixties, at this moment saw the appearance of Shen Qian Cai and realized that he might have misdiagnosed. However, this matter seemed too strange, as he had clearly diagnosed the patient as having passed away yesterday. Why then has he awakened today? Could it be a momentary revival?

Ah! This is terrible, miss, it's a resurrection..." The woman in white exclaimed as she rushed out of the room

Shen Qian Cai recalled that before losing consciousness, he seemed to have been hit by a car. That damned driver was definitely driving under the influence. One could get hit just standing by the roadside; how unfortunate. However, on the other hand, he was also quite careless. As a member of the "head-down" generation, he habitually took out his phone while waiting, neglecting the fast-approaching vehicle. For someone who is part of the "head-down" generation, this was truly a failure.

"Everyone can smell it, what do you think?" Shen Qian Cai's voice was very soft, and he didn't care whether the other person heard him or not. He pulled up the blanket to cover his head and said again, "Can everyone go out and let me be alone for a while"

Yan Zhiqing was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, and then she carefully fixed her gaze on Shen Qian Cai's eyes. After a while, she surprisingly found not a trace of lewdness, nor even a hint of fanciful thoughts in his expression. This was a look Yan Zhiqing had never seen in his eyes before, calm and composed.

"I am your third aunt. Last year, when you went to the capital, you stayed at my house. Could it be that you have even forgotten me?" A woman in her forties exclaimed as she looked at Shen Qian Cai.

When this woman saw Shen Qian Cai sitting well on the bed, her red lips slightly parted, and a faint elegant smile revealed two deep dimples, she spoke in an extremely cold tone: "Doctor Xu, can a dead person be like this!"

Moments later, the door was suddenly pushed open, and immediately a dozen or so people burst into the room. These individuals, both men and women, young and old, were all dressed in mourning attire, as if someone had died in the family, yet none of them were known to Shen Qian Cai

Shen Qian's wealth indeed needs to be quiet for a while; everything that has happened is too strange, so strange that it does not seem like anyone is trying to target him, but rather as if it has been deliberately arranged.

Shen Qian Cai has been left in a daze by these people, completely unaware of what has happened to him, wondering if this is still a hospital or not

It was as if she heard a noise behind her; the woman in white suddenly turned around. The moment she saw Shen Qian Cai sitting up, her eyes widened in terror, and she exclaimed, "Oh no, a zombie has risen!"

As soon as Dr. Xu spoke, he suddenly realized something and immediately slapped himself on the face, saying: "Look at what I've said, oh dear, this matter is truly puzzling. It's great to be alive, really great."

Shen Qian was momentarily stunned, thinking: "Which hospital is this? The nurse's outfit has actually been changed to ancient attire! Could it be that they are filming a movie?"

Doctor Xu, facing the stunning woman, did not dare to be arrogant. He humbly said, "Madam Shen, please do not be angry. Allow this old man to take his pulse for him."

Upon hearing Dr. Xu's words, these individuals were convinced that Shen Qian Cai had come back to life
