"Dad, Mom, this is Shi Ge, the biological daughter of our Lu family."
Xia Shige woke up from the darkness, the feeling of suffocation from excessive blood loss and impending death still lingering in her heart. She opened her eyes and looked around blankly, and found herself standing in the living room of the Lu family villa.
The elegantly dressed couple in front of her were her biological father Lu Bo and her biological mother Xu Yilan.
The fake daughter Lu Sixue was wearing a white high-end dress. She stood next to Xu Yilan, gently holding Xu Yilan's arm, and looking at her with a little uneasiness.
Xia Shige realized that she was reborn to the time when she first met her biological parents.
Xia Shige had never thought that the bloody incident of a rich man recognizing his relatives would actually happen to her, until a week ago, when a young elite man in a suit and tie found her and claimed to be Lu Siming, the president of the Lu Group, and her biological brother. He also said that she was the real daughter of the Lu family who was taken away by mistake ten years ago.
After looking at the paternity test that the other party brought out, Xia Shige prepared himself mentally for a week before making up his mind to come to the Lu family to meet his biological parents.
Xia Shige had long known that she was adopted by foster parents. Later, her foster parents divorced and her adoptive mother raised her alone. Xia Shige was indeed very curious about what kind of people her biological parents were.
Before Xia Shige recovered from the shock of her rebirth, her biological mother Xu Yilan hugged her into her arms. Xu Yilan choked up and said, "Daughter, my daughter!"
Xia Shige came to his senses from the scent of Xu Yilan's expensive perfume, then gently broke free from her arms and tried hard to suppress the hatred in his heart.
It was her biological mother who fed her drugged water and sold her to a cruel black organization in the apocalypse.
Xia Shige and the leader of the black organization died in despair. Unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes again, she was back here.
"Are you Sister Shi Ge? Welcome home." Lu Sixue also walked forward with a slightly nervous smile.
Sister? Xia Shige sneered in her heart. In her previous life, Lu Sixue had also pretended to welcome her in the same way at first, but changed her attitude after she returned home.
After Xia Shige returned home, Lu Sixue often resorted to some tricks, either hurting herself or cutting up her skirt and jewelry and framing Xia Shige.
No matter how Xia Shige explained, the Lu family chose to believe Lu Sixue and became more and more disappointed with Xia Shige.
"Is this girl the one I picked up by mistake?" Xia Shige turned around and asked Mr. and Mrs. Lu expressionlessly, "If I come back, will she leave the Lu family?"
Xu Yilan was stunned, then said anxiously: "Of course Xue'er won't leave!"
"Shi Ge, you and Si Xue are both your parents' daughters." The biological father Lu Bo's tone also carried a subtle dissatisfaction, "Can't the Lu family afford to raise two daughters?"
Before Xia Shige could say anything, an angry voice suddenly came from the stairs: "It's you who should leave! What right do you have to say that to Sister Sixue!"
Xia Shige turned around and saw a boy walking down the stairs. He was about eighteen or nineteen years old and wearing trendy branded clothes. It was her younger brother Lu Siyuan.
Lu Siyuan walked down the stairs and faced his eldest brother Lu Siming with confusion and questioning in his tone: "Brother, why did you bring this woman back!"
"Lu Siyuan!" Lu Bo, his biological father, scolded Lu Siyuan in a low voice, then turned around to comfort Xia Shige, saying, "Shige, your brother Siyuan is young and naive, don't take it to heart."
"Who is her brother! Why should I let this country woman from the countryside be my sister!" Lu Siyuan said unwillingly.
Xia Shige subconsciously looked down at her clothes. After graduation, she had been helping her adoptive mother take care of the family's fish pond and orchard, and often ran around the mountains. She was indeed not as glamorous as Lu Sixue, who was wearing all kinds of branded clothes.
Xia Shige was in no mood to quarrel with Lu Siyuan now. She said, "You misunderstood. I didn't ask her to leave. I came to the Lu family today not to recognize my relatives, but to discuss the transfer of the contract rights of Anyuan Mountain with the Lu family."
The Lu family is in the tourism industry. They have set their sights on Anyuan Mountain in Anyuan Village and want to develop a new tourist resort project there. The contract rights for Anyuan Mountain are in the hands of Xia Shige's adoptive mother and are now under Xia Shige's name.
Xia Shige's adoptive mother's family invested in a large fish pond and orchard in Anyuan Mountain. When Lu Siming, the president of Lu Corporation, was negotiating with the Xia family on the transfer of the contract rights, he saw Xia Shige, who looked ten times similar to Xu Yilan. He was shocked and learned that Xia Shige was the adopted daughter of the Xia family. So he secretly took Xia Shige's hair for a paternity test and finally confirmed that Xia Shige was the biological daughter of the Lu family who was taken away by mistake.
Unexpectedly, Xia Shige would suddenly bring this up. The Lu family was stunned for a moment. Her biological mother Xu Yilan reacted first and said, "Shige, today is your first day home. Let's not talk about this. Let's take a look at the room that your mother has prepared for you."
But Xia Shige knew that the contract transfer agreement must be signed today because there would be a rare mudslide in Anyuan Mountain in three days.
This mudslide was the beginning of the apocalyptic disaster and also the beginning of Xia Shige's nightmare. She lost all her relatives including her adoptive mother in that mudslide and had to return to the Lu family.
In this life, Xia Shige will stay away from the Lu family and live well with her adoptive mother's family. She needs a large sum of money to stock up on supplies needed for the end of the world, so she has to sign the contract transfer agreement today and get the transfer fee.
"The peak tourist season will begin in two months. Signing the contract early will also be beneficial to the Lu family." Xia Shige knew what his biological father Lu Bo cared about most.
For Lu Bo, the company and interests always come first. Real daughter or fake daughter is not important in front of business.
Sure enough, after a moment of hesitation, Lu Bo said to his elder brother Lu Siming, "Go to my study and get the contract."
The Anyuanshan project was strongly promoted by Lu Bo. The Lu Group had made several investment mistakes in recent years and urgently needed new money-making projects to recover the company's capital.
Although I don't know why Xia Shige proposed to sign the agreement at this time, Lu Bo is indeed happy to see it. There are still a few months of preparation time before the peak tourist season in May. If all goes well, this investment will bring profits to the company this year.
