Chapter 120: Li Ruolanâs Grand Plan, Adding Kinship to Kinship
At that moment, Li Ruolan understood why her âmotherâ 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 familyâs fortune. How laughable, blaming her âmotherâ and brother for wanting to take what was hers, due to her fatherâs favoritism towards males. âMotherâ, brother, and⊠Lu Li, none of them really cared about the so-called fortune. Only she, with a villainâs heart, measured others by her own narrow standards.
Despicable and low!
Holding her heart, Li Ruolan reminisced about the days spent with her âmotherâ 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 âfall in loveââ
Her past self must have seemed so ridiculous in Lu Liâs 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 brotherâs death, she âsucceededâ. 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 âmotherâ. But the end result couldnât be changed. The dead couldnât be brought back to life.
She deserved her lonely, dismal death as punishment for her despicable actions.
Now reborn, she wouldnât vie for anything. She only wished to be a good sister, a good daughter, and⊠a good wife.
Her brother, âmotherâ, and their relationship with Lu Li werenât biological siblings but were closer than that, not mother and son but more than that. She wanted to make their relationship even âcloserâ.
Like⊠becoming Lu Liâs wife as his sister⊠hehe!!
But now wasnât 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 Liâs relationship with Zhang Ziqin and his feelings for her in the pastâŠ
Who wouldnât shake their head!
Now, with Zhang Ziqin gone, sheâd fight anyone. But Ye Chen was still alive!
How could that bastard who killed Lu Li, her brother, and drove âmotherâ to death continue living in this world! freeweÉnovÄl.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 brotherâs 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 Liâs visits became scarcer, and even when he came, heâd call âmotherâ and her brother out, not visiting the house.
It was all because of her dadâs 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.
âBrother, I assure you, I have no ulterior motives. No matter what father wants me to do, I wonât do it. I just, just⊠want to meet the person you and âmotherâ care about so much.â She smiled softly.
âIâll introduce you when thereâs a chance,â 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 Zichuanâs words, her smile stiffening. She understood her brotherâs position; she deserved it but didnât want to miss this opportunity.
âWhatâs losing face compared to having âmotherâ, brother, and Lu Li around, with the situation so favorable? If you donât seize this chance, youâll regret it if they all leave your life again. What a great opportunity; if you miss it, youâll regret it,â Li Ruolan thought.
This time was an excellent chance to improve relations with her brother, âmotherâ, and to get close to Lu Li. She couldnât let it pass.
Having lived another life, she understood some things were worth fighting for.
Biting her lip, Li Ruolan stepped forward, grabbing Li Zichuanâs sleeve like a sister trying to coax her brother: âBrother, please take me to meet Lu Li! I just want to know what kind of person has left you and âmotherâ so concerned.â
Performing such an act was truly embarrassing given her current psychological age.
Not to mention her current physical age was awkward enough.
âYou let goâŠâ Li Zichuan was dumbfounded.
He was almost scared into goosebumps. This woman was definitely not normal.
âBrother~~â
Her soft, tender voice made Li Zichuanâs 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, wouldnât defy such an order.
Usually, if he needed to use his phone while driving, heâd use the hands-free feature.
But now, letâs talk about the human phone holder.
You Meng obediently held the phone to Lu Liâs ear, like a maid presenting delicacies to an emperor, yet yearning for favor, her eyes tender and longing.
âWhat, barbecue in broad daylight? You sure about this? My first meal in Magic City, and youâre treating me to this?â Lu Li was brimming with laughter.
âQuit your yapping and get over here, weâre waiting just for you.â
âLi Zichuan, damn you, talking about me being stingy!â
Despite his words, Lu Liâs smile never faded.
