Feng Qingqing then confessed honestly that after dying in her previous life, she had been reborn into her eighteen-year-old self, specifically at the time she was living in the home allocated to her parents' factory. She recounted how she had avoided the fate of being swindled out of her job and house by her aunt’s family in that past life, and described the actions she had taken to secure her position.
He Yongan listened with a heart full of ache; he hadn't realized she had already shouldered so much on her own. At the same time, he asked the question that weighed most heavily on him:
"You didn't stay in the city, you insisted on coming to the countryside—did you come here to find me?"
He watched her intently, his face tense, as if terrified of the answer she might give.
Feng Qingqing looked at him earnestly and spoke without a moment's hesitation:
"Yes. I hope that you will join me in avenging our past lives, and in exposing those who plotted against you so they receive the punishment they deserve."
