In my dream, my biological parents, whom I had always missed, disappeared, and my adoptive parents' faces appeared in their place.

They still greeted him with smiles and inquired about his well-being.

When Lu Yi woke up, his pillow was soaked.

But he denied that he had cried.

It's probably because there's no air conditioning in this room, and the person got sweaty and wet.

After changing into clean clothes, Lu Yi walked out of the villa through the small door in the backyard.

He needed to walk through the villa's hallway to get through the front door, and he didn't want to see any of those people.

But after taking only a few steps, he was blocked by a flamboyantly dressed figure.

She has a slender figure, wearing a high-end designer gown with a unique design, carrying a limited-edition handbag, and wearing sky-high heels with heels composed of three letters.

Lu Yi had no idea what kind of strange design it was; he just thought it was incredibly tacky and gaudy!

"Hey, isn't this my little brother Huanzhu?"

Lu Yi ignored her, walked past her, and continued walking forward.

"Lu Yi, you stop right there!"

Lu Baoqi called out to him sharply, walked up to him, put one hand on her hip and bent down, and lifted his chin with the other hand.

She pursed her red lips and chuckled a few times in a sarcastic tone.

"Where are you rushing off to so early in the morning?"

"Mind your own business!"

"So young, yet so temperamental? Why didn't you go to the dinner party last night? Don't you know any of the family rules?"

"Family rules? Those are yours, they have nothing to do with me... Achoo!"

Lu Yi's nose tingled from the perfume scent, and he suddenly sneezed.

Lu Baoqi disgustedly shook off his hand and screamed in alarm.

"You're filthy, you unruly bastard! What do you mean 'it's none of your business'? Aren't you surnamed Lu?"

Lu Yi stared at her exquisite makeup, a cold smile playing on his lips.

"This perfume is so cheap and smells awful!"

After saying that, he strode away without looking back.

"You brat, yesterday you said my style was the perfect match for this Chanel, and today you've changed your mind... Do you believe I'll tell Mom and Dad you're bullying me again!"

Lu Yi turned the corner and disappeared from sight.

Lu Baoqi pressed the car key, turned around angrily, and said, "I haven't settled the score with you for breaking my perfume last time... Wait until you come back, and see how I punish you!"

Muttering to herself, Lu Baoqi lost her footing and fell to the ground with a thud.

She pounded the ground in frustration, "Lu Yi—it's all your fault!"

Just then, my cell phone rang in my handbag.

Lu Baoqi answered the phone irritably, but before she could even speak, her manager's indifferent voice came through the line.

"Bao'er, the deal for that role didn't go through, so don't come over yet. I'll let you know if the director changes his mind. Be good, stay home and rest!"

"Hey, Sister Ai, didn't we agree that this role was definitely meant for me...? Hey, hey!"

Hearing the busy signal inside, Lu Baoqi felt pain not only in her feet but also in her head.

"You jinx! Every time I run into you, I'm doomed. I hate you!"

She slowly got up and limped home.

Resentment welled up in his heart.

There were originally five siblings in the family, and they all got along very well. I really don't know what my parents were thinking by bringing this stranger home.

Are they deliberately trying to annoy their siblings because they think they have too much wealth and they're afraid the siblings are living too comfortably?

If you have a lot of money, then use it freely!

Why did my father refuse without even thinking when I suggested he invest in movies, sponsor variety shows, or even buy script rights?

She can't play the roles of naive and innocent, scheming and manipulative, pretty but useless, or vicious second female lead forever!

Lu Yi walked briskly out of the residential area, went to the square, scanned a shared bicycle, and started pedaling quickly.

From a young age, his adoptive parents taught him to be kind to others, to understand and be tolerant of others, and to endure injustices.

But he endured it for so long, and what was the result?

All he got in return was intensified humiliation and harm from others. What else did he gain?

He's the Lu family's biological son!

Have you ever received warmth and care from your family?

Having been reborn, he no longer wanted to endure it, nor could he.

With all his might, Lu Yi rode to the old house in one go, braked and locked the door, then eagerly went upstairs to open it.

He figured everything out along the way.

Throughout life, people are always searching for what they desire, yet they don't realize that what they are looking for has always been right beside them from the very beginning.

God is fair.

He had already received family affection.

How could I be so foolish as to crave another one!

As soon as he entered his home, everything familiar, the long-lost warmth, and the strong sense of belonging instantly brought tears to his eyes.

This is the real home that belongs to him.

It is a haven that truly accepts him, embraces him, and cherishes him.

His adoptive father also had the surname Lu. He was not as rich as Lu Zhengming, nor did he have any social status, but he treated him like his own flesh and blood and never wanted to let him suffer any grievances.

I remember when I first started elementary school, my classmates somehow found out about my background and made fun of me, saying I was an adopted child.

Lu Yi felt ashamed and didn't want to go to school the next day.

When his adoptive father found out, he took him to the amusement park for half a day, and after finding out the reason, he personally took him to the classroom.

In front of the teacher, he said, word by word, "Lu Yi is not a wild child. He has a family and parents. If anyone dares to bully him in the future, I won't mind teaching you how to be good people on behalf of your parents!"

From then on, Lu Yi always stood up straight and was no longer afraid of hearing those malicious slanderous words.

"Mom and Dad, I'm home!"

Lu Yi went to the bathroom, filled a basin with water, and wiped every nook and cranny until they were spotless, just like his adoptive mother did when he was a child.
