Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“I didn’t bring the money back.” Xia Yu weakly and hoarsely said, “If you want it, you have to treat my injuries. When I have healed, I will go out and bring it back.”

“What?!” Xia Shujuan exclaimed. “You didn’t bring the money back?! Why do I have such a stupid daughter like you?! You worthless trash, do you know that once you enter the family territory, you can’t leave?!”

This time, the color was drained from Xia Yu’s face. “I can’t leave?!”

She was horrified and instinctively wanted to sit up, but she did not have half the strength in her weak body. After lifting her body by an inch, she fell back, shocking the flies that were dancing around her wounds.

Xia Family looked at her in disgust and held her nose. “It stinks so badly. Look at you! What do you think the Xia Family is? All the rich people in the world are crying for us to help them! If we did not live in seclusion for the past generations, we would not have been able to live in peace! Only very few people can enter and leave freely in the Xia Family!”

Xia Yu shook her head incredulously. This was such an important piece of information but she only found out now!

Oh god! She still had to look for the flower for Wei Lingnan and give it to him. Otherwise, she would rot to death! She was unwilling to die like this and definitely had to get out! However, she was already inside the family now. How could she get out? She was not prepared at all. If she knew about this early, she would have prepared a few things beforehand.

Xia Shujuan was still rambling on. “Retarded! Idiot! Useless!”

Xia Yu became annoyed and couldn’t help but snap at her. “Shut up!”

Xia Shujuan was startled and did not expect her daughter to rebuke. She couldn’t help but curse. “You dare to talk back to me? Who do you think you are? I hope you die early you piece of trash!”

Xia Yu said faintly, “Xia Shujuan, do you believe that before I die, I have a hundred ways to drag you down with me?”

Her eyes were gloomy as if she were a ghost from hell, immediately scaring Xia Shujuan. At the end of the day, Xia Shujuan was a shrew and had never seen someone so cruel before. Her heart pounded in her chest. This trash was already half-dead, so why did she still look so intimidating?

However, she did not dare to be so arrogant any longer.

She said sternly to Xia Yu, “I can cure you. However, you must give all your money to me. I don’t care if you brought your money back or not. Even if it’s outside, you have to think of a way to get it back in here!”

Xia Yu’s expression darkened. “Ok. However, you must help me get out to get the money.” After a few short sentences, she already knew that since this woman was so greedy, she would use this greedy woman’s weakness to leave this family. When she left, there would be a whole life ahead of her. As for the promise? What a joke! She would never give Xia Shujuan any money.

Xia Shujuan said, “I want to help you, but do you think it’s so easy? If I could leave, I would have left a long time ago! Why would I have to wait for you to come back in?!”

Xia Yu sneered in her heart. This woman could not leave? That’s because she was brainless!

However, that did not mean Xia Yu was brainless like her.

As she laid on the dirty bed, she replied Xia Shujuan confidently, “I don’t need you to give me ideas. When I need your help, I will tell you what to do. First I have to ask you, who are the people who can leave freely in this clan?”

This question was simple. Xia Shujuan said, “The only ones who can leave freely are Xia Family Head and his family, compradors who are involved in trade, and some temporary workers can also go out if they gain the Xia Family Head’s permission.”

“What is a temporary worker?”

“That can be a lot of things.” Xia Shujuan said. “Some leave to learn technology, some leave to gain information... However, I advise you to not to think about it. The people sent out are all elites that were trained since a young age in the clan. As for you... Haha. Just focus on farming at home.”

Xia Yu ignored her snide comments and slightly frowned. It was a little tricky.

“What about a comprador?” She asked, “How often are they allowed to go out and what is their route like?”

Xia Shujuan lifted here for a lifetime and was very familiar, so she immediately spoke up...

At night, the moonlight was intoxicating.

Xia Ling did not sleep very well. She dressed in a nightgown and looked at the moonlight outside.

Outside the windowpane, the shadows were heavy and she could hear the sounds of insects. Xia Ling felt a little lonely. Her room was empty and Li Lei had returned to the city with his family a few days ago.

She initially wanted to go with him.

However, Madam Xia could not bear for her to leave. After confirming that she had the memories of her daughter’s previous life and that Xia Ling really reincarnated, Madam Xia softly convinced her to stay. “You’re engaged and will marry him soon. You spent so little time in your own home. Stay a few more days and let your mom look at you for a few more days, ok?”

How could Xia Ling refuse?

She called Lin Yunan and asked him to adjust her schedule. She stayed in the Xia Family and devoted her time to accompany her parents. Her family treated her like a gem and the other people were even more respectful towards her.

However, she still felt lonely. After not seeing Li Lei for many days, her heart felt empty.

Unknowingly, that man had become a part of her life.

Standing in the moonlight, she couldn’t help but miss him. She raised her fingertips and gently drew his eyebrows in the still air. Outside the windowpane, the shadows swayed as if the entire world recognized his beautiful face. She was lost in her thoughts. Suddenly, she felt that something was moving in the shadows.

She thought that it was an illusion.

After that, the branches rustled unnaturally again.

She stopped trying to draw her sweetheart’s face and started focusing her attention on the trees. It was only then that she saw a thin girl in the flowers not far from the room limping about and looking for something.

“Xia Yu?” Xia Ling mumbled. It was so late, why did she appear here?

Without thinking much, she draped a coat over her and walked out.

“Xia Yu!” In the flowers, she suddenly appeared behind Xia Yu and called her coldly.

Xia Yu was taken aback. She turned around, saw her, and quickly hid the item she was holding behind her back.

“What are you doing?” Xia Ling narrowed her eyes and asked.

“I... I couldn’t sleep, so I decided to walk around.” Xia Yu stammered.

Xia Ling did not believe her excuse. Looking at the way she limped, it was obvious that her injury had not recovered yet. She would be crazy to wander into the place where the Xia Family Head lived from the slums. “You can’t fool me.” She exposed Xia Yu. “What are you holding in your hand.”

“Nothing much. Just... a flower.” As she spoke, Xia Yu slowly extended her hand for Xia Ling to see in the moonlight. Sure enough, it was a small flower. It had a very light color and was almost transparent. This type of flower was very special and only seemed to grow near Xia Ling’s house.

It was not very eye-catching and looked like a wildflower.
