Chapter 42: recollection of the past, guests arrive
(Part 1)

At night, Lu Anran laid on her bed, but she kept tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. After reincarnating into this lifetime, many things have changed greatly. Lying flat on the bed, she raised up her arms and borrowed the moonlight shining in to examine the contour of both of hands. In this lifetime, both of her hands were intact and undamaged, so Lu Jianhao will definitely pass down the essence of Lu Family’s cuisine to Lu Anran. Then essentially, Lin Haosheng would not be able to do anything… Thinking of the previous lifetime where she stood in the chapel with the husband she swore to love for her whole life… Lu Anran felt like something was stuck in her throat, throbbing and painful.

In the previous lifetime, Lin Haosheng was a foster son of Lu Family by name only, sent into the care of Lu Junhao and Ji Rou, it was said to be the remaining child of Lu Junhao’s best friend. Both of his parents passed away, and was carried back by Lu Junhao to be adopted. Not long of Lu Anran was born, Lu Haosheng was sent overseas to study, from her recollection of her previous lifetime, they officially met each other when Lu Anran was in her second year of high school and when Lin Haosheng graduated from university and returned home, entering Lu Corporation to work.

After returning home, Lin Haosheng also tutored Lu Anran and Chu Yao and it was also in the course of tutoring that Lu Anran started to fall little by little in love with the intelligent and gentlemanly Lin Haosheng. At the beginning, Lu Anran only felt that Lin Haosheng was very reliable, so Lu Anran who did not have a father relied a little on Lin Haosheng. The reason why she fell in love with Lin Haosheng was also due to Chu Yao’s praises of Lin Haosheng on a daily basis, which led to her heart to slowly flood with affections for him…

Abruptly clenching her hands into a fist, Lu Anran’s eyes also became chilly. In this lifetime, due to her rebirth, many things have changed, perhaps everything would turn out differently from the previous lifetime. She can only let herself become stronger and more powerful step by step, so that she can destroy her enemies and protect the whole of Lu Corporation.

Remembering the unnatural expression on Ji Rou’s face tonight, Lu Anran knew for certain that she definitely knows who is the one who sent the killers after her. But it is because that this person is too powerful, so she cannot say anything! Lu Jianhao also knows, but he also maintained his silence at the dinner table and only told everyone, who was feeling anxious, that Lu Jianfeng agreed to his request and that someone would come over tomorrow.

The only thing Lu Anran can be at ease at doing now, is studying. Although Lin Da will no longer help her in her studies like last time, but she still has her home tutor Qin Shuhan and 100 more days to the entrance examination. She needs to put in all of her effort to be able to enter S City First Middle School. All of the mistakes she made in her previous lifetime, she would prevent them one by one. Even her regrets she also wants to fix it one by one!

Suddenly, a girl’s face floated up in Lu Anran’s mind, she looks about 4 years old with beautiful long curly hair up to her waist, wearing a red princess-style skirt. Her eyes were full of tears and were helplessly begging Lu Anran for help…. Lu Anran’s heart twisted with pain for a moment…. In her previous lifetime, it was because of her cowardice and weakness that led to a cute little girl’s death.

After that, at midnight she often dreamt of this little girl using broken Chinese to piteously begging her (Lu Anran) to save her…. If she could still meet that girl in this lifetime, she will definitely lend a helping hand, this way she would not feel any regrets nor leave behind any remorse….

“Dang dang dang” 3 light knocks sounded at the door interrrupting Lu Anran’s train of thoughts. From outside the door came Ji Rou’s gentle voice, “Anran, are you sleeping?” She was in a state of anxiety for the whole day and was unable to fall asleep right now. She wanted to see her daughter, and came after hesitating for a long while. She asked very softly, if her daughter has already fallen asleep and did not reply her, she will return back to her room. If her daughter was still awake, then she would come in to see her.
