Even though she was reborn as a human, she had experienced so much in her previous life.
But facing back the people and events that caused her the deepest trauma in her childhood and making a clear and definite break with them is not an easy task.
It's like being given a second chance, holding a sharp knife, to cut out the rotten flesh from her heart that once caused her so much pain.
On this day, she appeared decisive and resolute, but the courage she needed to expend behind the scenes was considerable.
The fear, disappointment, anger... all the emotions when I woke up after being reborn and found myself drugged were incredibly real.
She was under a lot of pressure.
But now, knowing that so many people care about her and that she has received so much kindness, Shen Zhihuan feels relieved.
She suddenly understood the meaning of rebirth.
When her life ended in her previous life, she had too much resentment, too much regret, and too many things left undone.
She was held back by Gu Yuchuan and the Shen family, took too many detours, and found her ambitions and aspirations far too late.
God has given her another chance to escape those shadows and pain and to be a good person.
Thinking of this, Shen Zhihuan's heart calmed down.
Since that's the case, this time, she's determined to live a carefree and beautiful life.
I will work harder than before, return to the battlefield as soon as possible, do more than I did in my previous life, and save more people!
Even if one day one is sacrificed on the battlefield, it is still better than being pushed into the abyss by one's own hands in the previous life and ending one's life hastily.
Shen Zhihuan's heart was at peace, but Grandpa Xie and Grandma Xie were furious.
Aunt Liu and Aunt Zhang were still chattering on about Shen Zhihuan's experiences over the years, which made Old Xie furious.
"That Shen Yongcai is such an inhuman wretch! He actually treated such a frail girl like Xiao Zhihuan like an animal!"
"More than that."
Sister-in-law Liu kept sighing.
"I still remember that Zhihuan had a very high fever during her college entrance exam."
"Not only did they not take Zhihuan to see a doctor or get medicine, they also piled up a huge mountain of dirty clothes for Zhihuan to wash when she came back from her exam tonight!"
Aunt Zhang also remembers this incident vividly.
"That's right, that's right. Not only did they make Zhihuan wash until midnight, but they also made her do housework. We couldn't persuade them to stop!"
Aunt Zhang was filled with righteous indignation.
"Zhihuan was known for her excellent grades at school. The teachers all said that she would definitely go to university."
"That failure in the exam must have been caused by those heartless Shen family members!"
Zhao Haiyin listened with her heart pounding.
Although I haven't known Shen Zhihuan for long, the way this girl acted just now was both reliable and sensible.
She could hardly believe that such reliability and maturity had been cultivated in such an environment.
I can't even imagine how painful and distressed such an outstanding girl must have been to fail the college entrance examination.
Putting herself in her shoes, she couldn't help but step forward and hug Shen Zhihuan's shoulder tenderly.
"Such a good, such an outstanding child, how could those blind people not know how to cherish him!"
"Are they even related by blood? How can they be so biased!"
"If this were my daughter, I would cherish her and protect her from any hardship!"
Mr. Xie shared the same idea.
"Although Zhihuan is not my Xie family's biological granddaughter, Old Shen's granddaughter is no different from my own!"
"As long as I, this old man, am here, no one will be able to bully Zhihuan anymore!"
Mr. Xie made the decision on the spot.
"Zhihuan, you can stay at the Xie family's house without worry."
"Even if you look down on my brat, it doesn't matter. From today onwards, you are my goddaughter, Lao Xie's goddaughter!"
"We will treat you the same way we would treat our own granddaughter."
"certainly……"
Old Xie's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly, and he chuckled a couple of times, looking a little embarrassed.
"If you happen to take a liking to my eldest grandson in the future, then we can discuss it again."
After all, it feels closer to be a biological granddaughter than a goddaughter.
Those can be registered in the same household registration book!
Shen Zhihuan paused, then couldn't help but smile and curl her lips.
Old Xie coughed lightly twice, his expression turning serious.
"In short, you saved Lan Shen, and our Xie family will always be grateful for your kindness."
"Even if it's just for the sake of this favor, you can stay at our house as long as you want. If anyone dares to gossip, I, Old Xie, will be the first to talk to them!"
Shen Zhihuan was somewhat embarrassed.
That's what they say.
But in her heart, she was just doing what a doctor should do and shouldn't ask for anything in return.
What's more, Chief Xie had saved her life.
She would still feel guilty if she were to eat and stay at someone else's house for free just for that reason.
Zhao Haiyin and Old Madam Xie exchanged a glance and saw through Shen Zhihuan's thoughts.
The two men walked over, patted Shen Zhihuan's hand, and smiled gently at her.
"That's what we wanted too, Zhihuan. Just stay here and give us a chance to repay your kindness."
After hearing this, and seeing that the Xie family was genuinely grateful, Sister-in-law Liu and Aunt Zhang gradually felt relieved, smiled, and joined in the persuasion.
"Zhihuan, we all know that you have never given up on your studies and want to apply to a university in Beijing."
“We’re not comfortable letting a young girl like you live outside. It’s more convenient for you to stay at the Xie family’s house and buy study materials when you’re preparing for exams.”
“We live close by, so we can come and visit you from time to time and look after you.”
As they were talking, Liu Qiang received a signal from his mother and quickly unloaded Shen Zhihuan's luggage from the car, took it directly to the Xie family's door, and asked her questions.
