She died in a rigged explosion and unexpectedly woke up in the body of a young girl.
Determined not to waste her second chance at life, she decides to truly enjoy the life she never had befor...
The butler looked at Wen Lu, sat down opposite Wen Lu and Yan Nuo, and told them what had happened on the ship back then.
"Sixteen years ago, my husband and Mr. Xiao were invited to a business symposium held in M continent. I followed Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao onto that ship."
"Most of the people on that ship were going to attend that business conference, and there were also some tourists, including your parents."
"Just as everyone finished dinner and was enjoying the sea view, a group of masked men boarded the ship, looking for a woman named Jessica. They searched the ship for a long time but couldn't find her."
"Then those men in black began to attack the passengers on the ship indiscriminately. Many people were injured and killed. The old man, Mrs. Xiao, Mr. Xiao, and I hid in a warehouse in the canteen and dared not go out to see what was happening outside."
"At that moment, a couple knocked on the door from the outside and said they could get us out of there, but their only request was that we help them get their child back safely."
"After the old gentleman took the young lady, he asked how to contact the couple after leaving the cruise ship. However, they did not leave any contact information for the old gentleman. They just asked him for his contact information and said that they would look for the young lady when they came out alive."
"Later, the couple did indeed send us out through the emergency exit, but after they went back, they never came back. In fact, the old man never gave up looking for the young lady's family until he passed away."
“Young Master, I know you may be upset that the old gentleman didn’t release the news about Jin Suo sooner, but after experiencing that incident firsthand, we don’t know the identities of Miss’s parents. If we offended those people we shouldn’t have, the old gentleman is genuinely worried that he won’t be able to protect Miss.”
The butler spoke with a particularly serious expression. Everything his master did was based on Wen Lu's safety. Their lives were saved by that couple, and they had to protect their daughter. That was why they were so cautious.
Wen Lu took the red velvet box and looked at the gold lock inside. She had absolutely no recollection of it and it shouldn't be related to her previous identity, since there weren't that many coincidences.
Having confirmed his identity and received what the steward wanted to give him, Wen Lu remembered that he still had some things to discuss with the steward. He put the gold lock aside, looked at the steward with a faint gaze, and felt an indescribable weariness in his eyes.
"Uncle Sun, even if you hadn't come to see me today, I would have had something to ask you. I want to ask about the will that Grandpa left for Wen Zhengnan. I heard that Grandpa wrote in the will that if Wen Zhengnan and his wife treat me badly, then all of Wen's Group's assets will become my assets? That will isn't real, is it?"
As Wen Lu spoke, she unconsciously raised her hand to rub her aching temples. Looking at Butler Sun's expression, she felt that the will must exist.
“Miss, this will is actually a binding condition. The old gentleman knows that Mr. Wen and his wife have already been in contact with the Su family. The old gentleman has investigated Su Yu’s character thoroughly and does not want such a bad girl to live with you, so he was able to make this will.”
"But this will was not notarized. The lawyer who appeared a few days ago was also an extra I arranged. He wanted to put pressure on Mr. Wen. If he can treat Miss well, that would be best. If he can't, then let him rightfully kick Miss out of the Wen family. That way, Miss can rightfully take over the Linlu Consortium without any trouble."
The housekeeper did all this as arranged by Mr. Wen before his death.
Mr. Wen divided his property into three parts. The part belonging to his wife's family was given to his grandson, who was expected to manage the assets left by his grandmother well.
The part in M continent, which is the best-developed part, was handed over to a manager to manage in place of Wen Lu. If Wen Lu is ready to take over, it will be handed over to Wen Lu. The manager is Wen Lu's best assistant.
If Wen Lu is unwilling to accept it, that company can fully guarantee that Wen Lu and her descendants will live a worry-free life.
The last part, the smallest part, was given to Wen Zhengnan. On the one hand, it was to give Wen Zhengnan something to do, and on the other hand, it was the foundation of the Wen family, so it was only right to give it to Wen Zhengnan.
However, before his death, Old Master Wen was still worried and deliberately arranged a fake will, hoping that this will would allow Wen Lu to receive better care or leave the Wen family sooner.
The butler explained everything he could to Wen Lu, but looking at Wen Lu's expressionless face, he couldn't figure out what she was thinking.
“Miss, if you want to take over the Wen Group, that’s not impossible. I can arrange to make that will valid.”
The butler looked at Wen Lu cautiously, assuming that Wen Lu was interested in the Wen Group.
"No need. I'm relieved to hear that the will was fake. You should have heard about the Wen family's situation by now, right? I'm asking you about this because I don't want to bear the final burden of the Wen family. I don't have the habit of cleaning up Wen Zhengnan's mess."
"Alright, I know what I need to know and I've figured out what I need to figure out. Aunt Sun, please arrange two rooms. It's getting late, and I'm tired. I'll rest here tonight."
"Alright, Miss's room has already been arranged. I'll go arrange a room for the young master so he can stay here overnight."
"Jasmine, take Miss to see the room first. Miss, please tell Jasmine if you have any requests. From now on, Jasmine will be the one to take care of Miss."
As Aunt Sun was greeting Jasmine, a pretty woman in her mid-twenties walked in from outside. She was wearing a professional work uniform and looked like someone who had received professional training.
Upon hearing Aunt Sun's words, Jasmine quickly walked to Wen Lu's side and gave Wen Lu a highly professional smile, the kind of smile where even the number of teeth shown was professionally measured.
Wen Lu didn't react much to this pretense. Actually, this kind of person is quite good; they don't cause too much unnecessary trouble.
Aunt Sun left with Yan Nuo, and Wen Lu returned to the room with Jasmine. She looked at the antique-style room and quite liked it; the decorations looked very comfortable.
After walking around the house, Wen Lu went into the dressing room next door, took out a set of pajamas, and turned to head towards the bathroom.
