Ten years pass in the blink of an eye.
In this life, under the care of my parents, my physical condition has improved, and I have more opportunities and resources. I have learned and tried things that I dared not touch in my previous life, gradually enriching myself.
Meanwhile, my parents do not hold out hope for Sheng Xiaorou's return and have been grooming me as the sole heir to the company.
Sheng Xiaorou returned earlier than I expected, or more accurately, she came to us on her own.
In the living room, a girl who looks eight points similar to me but with a slender figure is being held by my mom, weeping bitterly.
"Mom, Dad, I finally found you!"
My mom holds Sheng Xiaorou in her arms, looking at her with tears in her eyes, overflowing with deep concern, "Good child, it's good that you're back."
My dad's face is full of anger, "I want to see who abducted my daughter! The Sheng family will never let this go!"
Hearing my dad's words, Sheng Xiaorou, who is embraced by my mom, stiffens for a moment, sobbing and saying, "I don't know who abducted me, but the people who bought me, their house caught fire two months ago, I barely escaped but they all perished in the fire... I had nowhere to go, so I worked in the town. When I saw Dad's face on TV, I remembered my childhood and came back."
After hearing Sheng Xiaorou's words, my parents' hearts were filled with even more pain. Afraid of upsetting her, they stopped asking questions.
At that moment, my parents saw me at the staircase, smiling and asking me, "Xiaoran, your sister has finally come back. Are you happy?"
I smiled gently, walked over, reached out and hugged Sheng Xiaorou, saying, "I'm happy, of course I'm happy."
If she hadn't come back, after preparing for so many years, how would I have started the show?
During dinner, my parents instructed the maid to prepare a sumptuous meal.
Sheng Xiaorou, who hadn't seen good food for so long, gazed at the table with wide eyes, constantly swallowing saliva. Even before my parents had sat down, she began to eat heartily.
Her rough eating habits made the maid, who had worked there for many years, frown, but out of respect for Sheng Xiaorou's identity, she silently cleaned up on the side.
Seeing this scene on the dining table, my parents frowned imperceptibly, but hidden in their hearts were guilt and love for Sheng Xiaorou. In the end, they didn't say much.
Sheng Xiaorou belatedly realized her mistake, she wiped her oily lips, pitifully saying, "Mom, Dad, I'm sorry. When I was at the Song family, they always bullied me, I was always hungry, I have never seen so much good food, I acted impulsively..."
My mom stepped forward, full of compassion, "It's okay, Xiaorou, eat as much as you want. Our family is better off now, no one dares to bully you anymore, we, as parents, will support you in everything."
Sheng Xiaorou's eyes flickered, she raised an innocent face and asked, "Our family is better off now? How much better?"
When it comes to the company, my dad's pride is evident on his face.
"In Jing City, there are many famous families. Our family may not have a high status, but they still have to give our family some face. In the future, all these industries at home will be inherited by you two sisters!"
Upon hearing this, Sheng Xiaorou's smile uncontrollably spread across her face, her gaze swept over me and then lowered her head to look at herself. In that instant of lowering her head, a flash of jealousy passed through her eyes.
