Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Shen Lan regained consciousness, she found herself in a hospital.
“You’re awake?” Shen Xiu had spent the whole afternoon at her bedside.
Shen Xiu had rushed over when he heard the news. The medical professional had performed a thorough examination of Shen Lan’s body. She was physically fine, but unconscious nonetheless.
The medical professional reasoned that excessive stress was to blame.
When Shen Xiu recalled that Shen Lan had met with a man named Zhou Li earlier in the day, he grasped the situation.
“Uncle… Is that really you? How are you still here?” Shen Lan felt a lump in her throat as she opened her watery eyes and saw the man standing next to her.
“What are you talking about? Why would I not be here when you’re sick?” While Shen Xiu’s expression was cold and severe, his tone was surprisingly gentle.
He took a few tissues from the side and gently dabbed Shen Lan’s eyes to wipe away her tears.
Although Shen Lan remained silent, her response could be felt deep within. In her previous life… In her previous life, he was not around.
When Shen Lan awoke and saw Shen Xiu, she knew for certain that she had traveled through time. It had not been her imagination; she actually did see Zhou Li. A fresh start had presented itself to her.
“Uncle, which year is it now?” Shen Lan made a silly inquiry.
“Goodness. What’s gotten into you? You just celebrated your 20th birthday. What year do you think it is?” Shen Xiu answered her helplessly.
“That’s good, that’s good.” More tears swelled in Shen Lan’s eyes as she said this.
She was 20 years old. She was actually 20 years old! There was nothing she could not yet fix. This was a good time to start!
Shen Lan’s infatuation with Zhou Li caused her to make decisions over the next few years that she would come to deeply regret. She put her trust in the villain, cut herself off from her loved ones, caused harm to her uncle, and ultimately brought down her father’s business.
Her family was practically wiped out!
Even though 26 -year-old Shen Lan did not know for sure, she suspected that her “best friend” Liu Sheng was to blame.
“Liu Sheng and the others have come to see you. Should I call them in?” When Shen Xiu saw how upset Shen Lan was, he decided that a friend, rather than an elder, would be the best choice to accompany her.
“No!” Shen Lan grabbed Shen Xiu’s hand as he was finishing his sentence.
“Uncle, I don’t want to see them!”
The girl’s gentle touch on his arm felt warm and comforting. For a split second, Shen Xiu’s body tensed up. “Okay, you don’t have to see them if you don’t want to.”
“Do you still feel uncomfortable anywhere?” Shen Xiu pulled his hand away.
“Would you like to stay in bed for a while longer?’
“I’m not uncomfortable… I’m just a little confused…” In an effort to alleviate her headache, Shen Lan massaged her temples. Her mind was a jumble of current events and memories from the past.
The things she remembered from this life were vastly different from what she had experienced before.
Lu Zhao… This name made quite an impression on her. According to her memories, Lu Zhao was Liu Sheng’s accomplice in her past life. In a short amount of time, his hard-hitting methods had eaten away at the Shen family’s wealth.
But in this life, Liu Sheng had somehow admitted to liking Lu Zhao. Just what had happened?
Barely able to believe herself, Shen Lan recalled her prior investigations upon Lu Zhao due to Liu Sheng’s claim of liking him. The ignorant were truly fearless.
She finally remembered that the man sitting at the dessert shop during the day was Lu Zhao!
Zhou Li had abandoned her in her previous life as well. Every single one of Zhou Li’s new girlfriends was eventually forced to break up. She even went after his new girlfriends’ friends and family. But she had no recollection of Zhou Li knowing Lu Zhao!
Shen Lan gritted her teeth in confusion. What was going on? What was she going to do?
“What are you thinking about?” Shen Xiu noticed her expression darkening and remembered what the doctor had said. He interrupted Shen Lan’s thoughts.
“I-I don’t know either.” Shen Lan looked up, perplexed. In fact, she was at a loss for what to do. One thing was certain. She had to change. She could no longer be so crazy over Zhou Li, and she could not trust any villains. She had to save her family.
However, she had no idea where to begin.
Shen Xiu noticed her anxiety and decided now was not the time to talk to her.
He sighed. “Forget about it all for the time being. Just close your eyes and rest.”
Shen Lan obediently closed his eyes.
Shen Xiu patiently waited. When he was certain she had fallen asleep again, he left the ward.
“How is it? Is she…” Shen Ping had been waiting outside the ward. He approached Shen Xiu anxiously as soon as he saw him..
