The Path of Revenge After Rebirth - Chapter 8

In my previous life, I was always both afraid and in love with Lu Xinting.

He was several years older than me, and in my heart, he was always a dignified older brother.

When I was young, my parents were busy handling company affairs, so he took care of me.

Whenever I made a mistake, I would be punished with a ruler on my palm, forbidden to eat.

When I brought home a curly-haired stray puppy, he wouldn’t let the maid open the door for me:

“Filthy, such things are not welcome in this house.”

I sat helplessly on the doorstep with the puppy in my arms for an entire night.

Back then, I was still young.

I always thought his personality was just like that, unable to learn the gentle ways other brothers had with their sisters.

Until Lin Jiu appeared.

Only then did I realize.

My brother wasn’t incapable of being gentle.

It was just that the recipient wasn’t me.

I saw him sitting in the car, handing Lin Jiu a hot milk, gently rubbing her hair and saying, “Make sure to eat three meals a day, if money is tight, you have me.”

I also witnessed Lin Jiu not picking up a frail stray cat in the rain, while he held an umbrella for her, softly asking:

“Do you want to keep it?”

When Lin Jiu got drunk and tugged at his clothes, babbling nonsense, he listened patiently, his eyes full of tenderness.

In my previous life, I was trapped in the illusion of love.

Confused about why my brother didn’t love me, why my fiancé didn’t stand by me.

It took living another life to finally awaken.

I am a completely independent individual.

Just because there is no love, doesn’t mean one cannot live.
