Becoming a Wealthy Family’s Beloved After Her Rebirth

Lin Xiaowan did not make things difficult for herself when she ate. After eating, she cleared her throat, seeing that Huo Zheng had no intention of speaking. She asked, “Is my household registration book with you?”

Huo Zheng nodded. “It’s in the old house.”

Lin Xiaowan did not know why he kept it there, but she did not ask. She touched her nose and said, feeling slightly awkward, “I’ll go and get it in the next two days. You should remove my name from this house. I plan to move out in two days.”

“Move out?” Huo Zhen raised his head immediately.

“Yes.”

“Why are you moving out?”

“Uh, we’ve broken up, right?”

‘What kind of question is that? How can we still stay together after breaking up?’

Huo Zheng stared at her intently and said, “You said that it’s a temporary break. Where do you plan to go?”

Lin Xiaowan lowered her head and said softly, “Home.”

“Stay here. I won’t give you your household registration book, and you’re not allowed to leave,” Huo Zheng said, rising to his feet. His aura was so oppressive that Lin Xiaowan did not dare to raise her head at all.

Huo Zheng’s words were domineering and unreasonable, but Lin Xiaowan did not dare to refute them. Not only that, but she actually felt relieved. She thought to herself, ‘Ah, it seems like he really can’t bear to part with me.’

However, at the same time, she felt really shameless as well. She proposed to break up with him, but at the same time, she did not want to leave. It was as though she was deliberately trying to lead him on. She felt like she was really a b*tch.

Seeing that Lin Xiaowan did not say anything, Huo Zheng thought that she was still adamant about leaving. When his eyes fell on the ring on her finger, he deliberately asked, “Where do you think you’re going wearing my ring?”

Huo Zheng was already in a bad mood because of the breakup; his mood only worsened when Lin Xiaowan said she wanted to move out. As such, when he spoke, his words and voice were unintentionally cruel and cold in Lin Xiaowan’s ears. He only wanted her to stay, but in her ears, it did not sound that way.

Lin Xiaowan was originally holding a small bowl of porridge. However, when she heard his words, she instinctively withdrew her hand and touched her ring under the table. Initially, she wanted to keep the ring even after the breakup. However, based on his words, it seemed like he was not willing to let her keep it.

‘How annoying. Previously, when I returned it to him, he didn’t want it. Today, he doesn’t want me to wear it…’

Finally, Lin Xiaowan took the ring off. She placed it on the table and pushed it toward him.

‘So be it. I’ll just return it to him.’

Huo Zheng grew even angrier when he saw her actions. Without saying another word, he left, slamming the door behind him loudly.

Lin Xiaowan froze, shocked. He had never been so angry or fierce to her before so she was a little frightened.

Even the aunt, who was in the kitchen, was shocked. She had never seen Huo Zheng lose his temper ever since she started working here. He was already intimidating enough on normal days, but he was even more terrifying when he lost his temper.

Seeing that Lin Xiaowan was alone, the aunt came over and asked, “Is the porridge cold? It’s bad for your stomach if you eat it cold.”

When Lin Xiaowan looked up, the aunt saw her eyes were red and teary.

Lin Xiaowan wiped her tears with her sleeve. She had lost her appetite to eat. She pushed the bowl away and stood up, looking sad as she said, “Aunty, have you eaten? You should eat. I don’t want to eat anymore.”

The aunt sighed.

…

Huo Zheng left in the morning, and he did not return at night. However, this time, he sent an address to Lin Xiaowan, telling her that he would stay there in the future.

Lin Xiaowan was alone at home. No matter what she did, she could not raise her spirit.

…

The Huo family’s old mansion was in the suburbs of Maple Mountain. It was very far, and Lin Xiaowan did not know the way. The chauffeur worked for Huo Zheng so he definitely would not drive her there. However, she really wanted her household registration book and other documents. In the end, after hesitating for a while, she called Qiao You’an for help. Unfortunately, Qiao You’an did not answer the call.

After a few days passed, Qiao You’an still did not return the call.

Lin Xiaowan did not like to trouble others. Since the other party did not return the call, she also did not call again.

…

Half a month passed, and Huo Zheng and Lin Xiaowan did not contact each other.

Lin Xiaowan did not like going out so she was cooped up at home every day. She was often lost in her thoughts.

Seeing the state she was in, the aunt even advised her to go for walks.

One day, the aunt asked her, “I’m going to the supermarket. Do you want to come with me?”

Lin Xiaowan agreed. She liked snacks so she bought a lot of them.

The aunt felt much happier when she saw this. At the same time, she sighed at how simple Lin Xiaowan was. Nonetheless, it was good that she could divert Lin Xiaowan’s attention.

Huo Zheng, the master of the house, had not been home for so many days. The aunt naturally knew that something had happened, but it was not her place to ask questions. There was nothing she could do either. She could only do her best to cheer Lin Xiaowan up.

…

Lin Xiaowan did not stay happy for long. As soon as she arrived home, the smile on her face vanished, and she became unhappy again.

She missed Huo Zheng very much. After all, they had been together for a while. In her previous life, Huo Zheng had long integrated with her life. Now that she was suddenly alone in a place filled with memories, it was inevitable that she would feel sad.

Alas, Huo Zheng did not contact her, and she was too embarrassed to contact him. After all, she was the one who proposed to break up. No matter how uncomfortable it felt, she had to get used to it.

Lin Xiaowan flipped through the calendar and recalled events from her previous life. Her heart was extremely heavy. No matter what, she had to return to her hometown before the end of the year.

…

Autumn arrived in just a blink of an eye.

When the weather turned cold, Lin Xiaowan was even more unwilling to leave the house. She could sleep up to ten hours a day; it was as though she was hibernating even though it was only October. Apart from that, she also ate very little.

Once in a while, when she went shopping with the aunt, she felt as though she was being watched. She would look around suspiciously, making the aunt nervous.

It was the same today. Lin Xiaowan did not walk very far before the feeling of being watched and followed appeared again. However, she looked back a few times but did not see anyone. She stopped in her tracks, feeling anxious.

The aunt did not think Lin Xiaowan was overthinking things. She had read many reports about women who lived alone being stalked, robbed, or killed. She knew this was not a small matter.

Ever since Lin Xiaowan began to feel suspicious, she had begun to pay attention to suspicious markings on the house. She even placed Huo Zheng’s leather shoes outside the door just to be safe.

After a while, nothing happened, but Lin Xiaowan still felt as though she was being watched and followed whenever she left the house.

The aunt looked around as well. There were only a few pedestrians in the neighborhood, and it was extremely quiet. There was nothing but the sound of wind.

The two of them continued walking forward.

Seeing that Lin Xiaowan was anxious, the aunt suggested, “Should we call the police just in case?”

Lin Xiaowan shook her head and quickly pulled the aunt away. It was only when there were more people around them that she felt slightly more at ease.

Lin Xiaowan knew that there was no point in lodging a report. The police would only think she was being paranoid and would not take this matter seriously.

It was also for this reason that Lin Xiaowan was even more reluctant to leave the house.
