“Am I dead?”

Xiao Ying slowly opened her eyes but could only see darkness.
She couldn’t help but shake her hand gently.
But it felt off.

This was not the hand of an adult.
She raised her hand and placed it in front of her eyes. Although she couldn’t see it clearly, she could still see its silhouette.
She shook it again.
Xiao Ying was in a stupor. This was clearly the hand of a child.
She sat up in shock.
She touched the bed sheets beneath her.
She gulped. Wasn’t she dead?
She had died at the hands of her heartless parents.

The lights in the house suddenly came on.
Xiao Ying was so agitated that she closed her eyes. When she opened them again, she saw the person who had killed her.
Xiao Ying’s eyes were filled with hatred as she stared straight at the Xiao couple in front of her.
Madam Xiao spoke first. “Dear, did you have a nightmare?”
Madam Xiao used her hand to wipe away the cold sweat from Xiao Ying’s forehead, her face full of concern.
Xiao Lingfu then said, “Dear, don’t be afraid. Nothing in the dream was real.”
They had mistaken Xiao Ying’s gaze for fear.
Xiao Ying was stunned.
A moment ago, they had looked like they wanted to kill her personally.
Why were they acting so pretentiously now?
She looked around at the familiar decorations.
Had everything before really just been a dream?
No. No way.
That pain couldn’t have been a dream.
Xiao Ying seemed to have figured out the situation.
Had she been reborn?

Xiao Ying pushed her parents away, jumped off the bed, and ran to the bathroom.
The mirror hanging on the bathroom wall clearly reflected her current appearance.
She had really been reborn back to when she was ten years old.
Tears instantly filled her eyes.
God must not have been able to stand seeing her living a lie.
She had spent her life being deceived.
In the end, she had even died miserably.
That was why she had been given this chance to come back.
As Xiao Ying’s back was facing the Xiao couple, they could not see her expression clearly.
Madam Xiao teased, “Could it be that our girl was so frightened because she dreamed that she had become ugly? That’s why she’s so anxious to look in the mirror!”
Xiao Ying forced back the tears in her eyes.
Nothing had started yet. She could not expose herself now.
In this life, she was in the darkness while the enemy was in the light.
She would let them have a taste of the deception she had suffered in her previous life.
Xiao Ying adjusted her expression before turning around. She pretended to be the normal child they were expecting and looked at Madam Xiao with a face full of admiration.
“Mommy, you’re too smart. You guessed it right away.”
Xiao Lingbo looked at Xiao Ying with a grin and picked her up.
“Are you relieved to see that you’re still so beautiful?”
Xiao Lingfu’s voice was filled with amusement, as though he were a benevolent father.
Xiao Ying leaned into Xiao Lingfu’s neck and acted coquettishly.
“Daddy, put me down.”
Xiao Lingfu chuckled good-naturedly. “My girl has grown up and knows how to be shy.”
Xiao Ying was placed on the bed as she looked at Xiao Lingfu with dark eyes.
If he didn’t let go of her soon, she was worried that she wouldn’t be able to resist biting him.

Xiao Ying was smiling.
The Xiao couple praised her for a while before leaving.
Xiao Ying looked at the closed door and mocked them in her heart.
With the acting skills of the Xiaos, it was no wonder that she had been fooled by them in her previous life.
The smile on Xiao Lingbo’s face vanished the moment he stepped out.

Madam Xiao also looked impatient.
“When can we send that brat away?”
Xiao Lingfu glared at Madam Xiao and said, “Keep your voice down. It’ll be troublesome if she hears. We don’t know where the amulet is, so we can’t act rashly for now.”
Upon mentioning the amulet, Xiao Lingfu’s eyes flashed with greed.
Madam Xiao was reprimanded by her husband and became even more resentful of Xiao Ying.
However, at the thought of the amulet, the couple’s expressions were surprisingly identical.
Still, Madam Xiao felt sorry for their daughter.
Xiao Ying was their daughter in name, while their biological daughter could only be raised elsewhere.
Xiao Lingbo knew what his wife was thinking.
His heart also ached for his daughter. He turned to her. “Doesn’t Ruoxuan want to go to the Maldives to play? Let’s take her there in a couple of days.”

Madam Xiao was delighted and hoped she could prepare something immediately.
Xiao Ying sat on the bed and thought about what she should do.
She was too weak to antagonize the Xiao family alone.
