Female lead's Delusion of Starting Over-Chapter 120

Chapter 120: Li Ruolan’s Grand Plan, Adding Kinship to Kinship

At that moment, Li Ruolan understood why her ‘mother’ was so calm; she had been prepared all along. Ridiculously, she had even mocked her for being heartless. It was only herself who was truly heartless.

And what was she doing at the time? Being influenced by Ye Chen, sharpening her knives to snatch the Li family’s fortune. How laughable, blaming her ‘mother’ and brother for wanting to take what was hers, due to her father’s favoritism towards males. ‘Mother’, brother, and… Lu Li, none of them really cared about the so-called fortune. Only she, with a villain’s heart, measured others by her own narrow standards.

Despicable and low!

Holding her heart, Li Ruolan reminisced about the days spent with her ‘mother’ and brother,

and that man who had taken up residence in her heart, despite only a few days of actual encounter.

She realized that unexplained feeling was called ‘fall in love’—

Her past self must have seemed so ridiculous in Lu Li’s eyes! Furiously mocking him, thinking she had made him utterly faceless, leaving in defeat. But Lu Li was just too lazy to deal with her, making her the most ridiculous, like a laughable clown.

After her brother’s death, she ‘succeeded’. Even though her chauvinistic father eventually made her the heir, lacking any other choice, was she happy? Not at all! It felt like a heavy burden, suffocating Li Ruolan, making her feel even more despicable and lowly than they.

In their eyes, what she coveted was perhaps never truly valued.

Compared to them, obsessed with possessions, she seemed so… pitiful!

However, it was not without benefits. Being the heir, she finally had some capacity to avenge Lu Li, her brother, and ‘mother’. But the end result couldn’t be changed. The dead couldn’t be brought back to life.

She deserved her lonely, dismal death as punishment for her despicable actions.

Now reborn, she wouldn’t vie for anything. She only wished to be a good sister, a good daughter, and… a good wife.

Her brother, ‘mother’, and their relationship with Lu Li weren’t biological siblings but were closer than that, not mother and son but more than that. She wanted to make their relationship even ‘closer’.

Like… becoming Lu Li’s wife as his sister… hehe!!

But now wasn’t the time to think about these things. With Zhang Ziqin out of the picture, a major enemy gone, it was a relief as much as it was satisfying, considering Lu Li’s relationship with Zhang Ziqin and his feelings for her in the past…

Who wouldn’t shake their head!

Now, with Zhang Ziqin gone, she’d fight anyone. But Ye Chen was still alive!

How could that bastard who killed Lu Li, her brother, and drove ‘mother’ to death continue living in this world! freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

That guy had also faced a change this life, living miserably, which was a refreshing piece of news, alas, only to hear he had fled Hangzhou afterward and vanished (unknown to Li Ruolan); otherwise, she might have tried convincing her brother to take care of him first.

Time returned to the present.

Facing her brother’s questioning, Li Ruolan struggled to explain. She knew she liked Lu Li, but how many times had they met this life?

As a child, Lu Li did visit the Li residence a few times, but it was always a brief visit, barely speaking, and at that time, she disdained speaking with Lu Li.

Lu Li never paid attention to her either.

As adults, Lu Li’s visits became scarcer, and even when he came, he’d call ‘mother’ and her brother out, not visiting the house.

It was all because of her dad’s troublesome nature.

Recalling the only time Lu Li stayed at the Li estate, she never thought, after living another life and changing so much, that Lu Li would not visit the Li estate.

“Brother, I assure you, I have no ulterior motives. No matter what father wants me to do, I won’t do it. I just, just… want to meet the person you and ‘mother’ care about so much.” She smiled softly.

“I’ll introduce you when there’s a chance,” Li Zichuan said stiffly, his expression uncertain as he dismissively spoke after a moment.

Though his sister had changed a lot recently, her transformation was… inexplicable. He was on edge, wary of this woman who used to look at him as if she wanted to kill him.

Li Ruolan, of course, understood the perfunctory nature of Li Zichuan’s words, her smile stiffening. She understood her brother’s position; she deserved it but didn’t want to miss this opportunity.

“What’s losing face compared to having ‘mother’, brother, and Lu Li around, with the situation so favorable? If you don’t seize this chance, you’ll regret it if they all leave your life again. What a great opportunity; if you miss it, you’ll regret it,” Li Ruolan thought.

This time was an excellent chance to improve relations with her brother, ‘mother’, and to get close to Lu Li. She couldn’t let it pass.

Having lived another life, she understood some things were worth fighting for.

Biting her lip, Li Ruolan stepped forward, grabbing Li Zichuan’s sleeve like a sister trying to coax her brother: “Brother, please take me to meet Lu Li! I just want to know what kind of person has left you and ‘mother’ so concerned.”

Performing such an act was truly embarrassing given her current psychological age.

Not to mention her current physical age was awkward enough.

“You let go…” Li Zichuan was dumbfounded.

He was almost scared into goosebumps. This woman was definitely not normal.

“Brother~~”

Her soft, tender voice made Li Zichuan’s scalp tingle.

Too damn disgusting. This woman was way better off being cold or even hateful towards him!

Drivers should never take their hands off the steering wheel, not just for their own safety, but for the safety of others on the road.

As a law-abiding young man, Lu Li, of course, wouldn’t defy such an order.

Usually, if he needed to use his phone while driving, he’d use the hands-free feature.

But now, let’s talk about the human phone holder.

You Meng obediently held the phone to Lu Li’s ear, like a maid presenting delicacies to an emperor, yet yearning for favor, her eyes tender and longing.

“What, barbecue in broad daylight? You sure about this? My first meal in Magic City, and you’re treating me to this?” Lu Li was brimming with laughter.

“Quit your yapping and get over here, we’re waiting just for you.”

“Li Zichuan, damn you, talking about me being stingy!”

Despite his words, Lu Li’s smile never faded.
