Lu Yao rubbed her temples with her fingers. When she opened her eyes again, the panic in her eyes had been covered by calmness, and her expression was as calm as water.

Everything around her was clear and real. She was sure she wasn’t dreaming.

She had actually been reborn!

Lu Yao walked to the French window and looked down at the Capital.

The sun was bright and dazzling in the Capital, illuminating every corner of the city. There was no shortage of light and sunshine in a place that was the Capital of a nation.

Lu Yao couldn’t help but feel a chill in her heart. From the time she was abducted and sold to the foreign border at the age of seven until she was 15, she had never seen the sunlight of the Capital again. She had always lived in fear with her head tied to her belt.

Foreign borders were famous for their three-pronged disregard. That place was not bound by law. Sin and evil thoughts grew and spread freely. The people there came from various countries. Some of them were abducted and sold there like Lu Yao, while some of them were willing to join this world that was full of bloodshed.

It was not until after her death that she realized that it was not an organized criminal organization that had abducted her, but her nominal stepmother, Song Qinglian, who had spent a lot of money to find someone to abduct her.

Once the traffickers had taken her to the border, they’d thrown her, a mere seven years old, into the ship for transporting children and women.

It was not surprising that people were trafficked at the border during those years. The more beautiful girls would be sold as toys by those with some power. As for those who were not good-looking and could not be sold, they would inevitably end up with organs being sold and dying of illness.

Lu Yao was lucky. The ship sank not long after it sailed. She was rescued by a kind person and settled in the dilapidated empty house of a village on the shore.

Lu Yao thought about it later. Even if she had to live in a foreign country for the rest of her life, it was better than the days when she returned to the Lu family. She grew up to 22 years old in the border which was often in danger.

Later, when she returned to the Lu family, she was at a loss when she saw Song Qinglian and her daughter guiding her in like the new owners of the Lu family.

Song Qinglian and her daughter were very enthusiastic when they first saw her, despite the three of them having never met before. Song Qinglian, on the other hand, was very warm and considerate. She helped Lu Yao prepare her personal clothes and change the bedsheets.

Even Song Miaomiao, who was two years younger than her, was graceful and cute. The two of them stood together as if Song Miaomiao was the real daughter of the Lu family.

Song Miaomiao called her big sister with a smile and led her into the room. She brought her to various occasions, and the two of them gradually became familiar with each other.

Of course, Lu Yao never knew about their ambitions.

Less than half a year after she was kidnapped, Song Qinglian joined the Lu family’s company and worked under her father.

Song Qinglian was very capable at work and was forthright. She would also show the gentleness and consideration of a woman when she was alone with her father.

A year later, Song Qinglian changed from a department manager to Lu Xin’s girlfriend. She moved into the Lu family with her five-year-old daughter, Song Miaomiao.

Later, with the help of Song Qinglian and her daughter, her relationship with her father and brother became worse and worse. In the end, her family was destroyed.

She had never thought about what was hidden under those two hypocritical faces. The two of them not only wanted the Lu family’s assets, but also their lives!

Then, she thought of her encounter after being tricked by Song Miaomiao to come here and sleep with an unfamiliar man. Lu Yao’s eyes were filled with anger and some imperceptible sorrow.

Lu Yao hurriedly washed her face. She wanted to leave before Song Miaomiao came to “catch the adulterer”.

In order to ruin her reputation, Song Miaomiao coaxed her to drink the aphrodisiac and arranged for a hooligan to stay in her hotel room in advance.

However, Song Miaomiao did not expect that she would enter the wrong room in a daze and sleep with the powerful young master of the Zhan family.

When Song Miaomiao rushed over to “catch the adulterer”, she saw that the person sleeping beside Lu Yao was not the hooligan she had arranged. It was actually the cold and handsome Zhan Jinghong, who was famous in the capital. She was angry and frustrated. In a moment of desperation, she abandoned her in an unfamiliar room.

Instead, she put on exquisite makeup, changed into sexy pajamas, and got into Zhan Jinghong’s bed.

In her previous life, it was also from this time that Song Miaomiao and Song Qinglian could no longer be bothered to hide their wild ambitions. They did not hesitate to appear and frame Lu Yao.

It was only then that Lu Yao realized their true colors.

But it was too late after that. She had reacted too late. From then on, her reputation was ruined. She had lost everything that had been hers, including the child she had never seen.
