With a thought, the treasure-hunting rat came running over, carrying a set of the original owner's clean clothes in its mouth, squeaking.

She quickly changed her clothes, took the puppet granny with her, and in a flash, she left the space.

The night was still dark.

The girl who crawled in through the dog hole remained in the same position, lying motionless on the ground, with half of her body sticking out of the courtyard wall.

Ruan Tang walked over slowly and gently touched the girl's neck with her fingertips.

His breathing was steady.

He was knocked unconscious by the treasure-hunting rat and probably won't wake up for a while.

At this moment, Ruan Tang's soul and this body are at an unprecedented level of harmony.

Although she still had no spiritual power in her body, her divine sense was exceptionally strong and refined.

Should we wait until she wakes up on her own before questioning her?

That's too much trouble.

Ruan Tang has never been very patient.

She gave the puppet grandmother a wink.

The puppet grandmother immediately stepped forward and effortlessly dragged the girl out of the dog hole, laying her flat on the uneven muddy ground like a rag doll.

Looking at the girl's faded coarse cloth clothes and her thin, bony hands, Ruan Tang frowned slightly.

There was no such person in the original owner's memories.

In the dead of night, risking everything, he crawled through a dog hole into the mansion of a billionaire that had just been emptied.

What is she after?

Ruan Tang slowly squatted down.

She extended her slender, fair index finger and, without hesitation, tapped it against the girl's smooth forehead.

The fingertips did not actually touch the other person's skin.

An invisible, far more powerful divine force than when the ship was previously explored, pierced the girl's brow and sea of ​​consciousness with unparalleled precision, like an unseen, cold needle.

She wants to see.

What exactly does this girl want to do by sneaking into the Ruan family's house in the middle of the night?

………………

Divine senses, like needles, silently pierced into the girl's chaotic mind.

In an instant, scenes belonging to this girl flooded back like a tide.

Beside the stove, for a small piece of greasy fat, the mother hurled vicious curses and the second sister shoved her with sharp words.

The girl's name is Cheng Ningning.

My father was a rickshaw puller at the dock. He worked so hard that his back was bent, but he still couldn't provide enough food and clothing for his family.

The mother vented all the bitterness and unhappiness of her life on her children.

Cheng Ningning is the third child in her family, with an older sister and a younger brother, and she is the least popular one.

The scene abruptly shifts, and time begins to distort.

Cheng Ningning's life has been given a second chance.

In her previous life, the following year, she was sold by her mother to a butcher in the neighboring street who had slaughtered pigs for half his life, in exchange for a dowry.

The butcher was more than ten years older than her, burly and thick-waisted, with a face full of fat, like a dark mountain of flesh.

He neither hit nor scolded her.

But those hands, which had been holding butcher knives for years and were covered in grease, made Cheng Ningning feel nauseous to the core every time they touched her skin.

She finally couldn't resist and ran off with a businessman.

The port city's prosperity dazzled her eyes and corrupted her heart.

After a few years of glory, she grew old and lost her beauty, and was ruthlessly kicked aside.

After that, she eked out a living in the world of prostitution, and died before she turned thirty in a leaky rented room.

Tonight, she got into another fight with her second sister, hitting her forehead on the corner of the table. When she opened her eyes again, she was seventeen years old.

It will be a full year before it is sold.

She was not resigned to her fate! She wanted to change it!

In the midst of chaotic memories, a flash of lightning streaked across the sky—the dust of a past life.

The businessman who took her to the port city once boasted about a strange story about Haicheng after drinking.
