Rebirth

"Recently, various geological disasters have been occurring frequently. Some experts predict..."

"Jiang Rui'an, I can give you child support, but you must take the child!"

"Why should I?! How am I supposed to remarry with this burden?"

Two voices raised in heated argument echoed from the divorce registration office at the civil affairs bureau.

The staff member looked sympathetically at the beautiful five-year-old girl standing between the couple's feet, looking like a porcelain doll, and sighed softly.

So young, and her parents were divorcing, neither wanting to keep her.

How pitiful...

Wait, that's strange.

Why is she smiling?

Indeed, Yun Xiaoxiao was in a good mood right now.

Because she had been reborn!

Back to ten years ago, six days before the apocalypse broke out!

"Yun Shaokai, I'm telling you, if you're not willing to raise this burden, you can forget about getting divorced today, and you can forget about continuing to have fun with those girlfriends of yours!"

"Jiang Rui'an, don't think I don't know what you've been up to. Didn't you just hook up with some powerful man? You're afraid you won't be able to marry into a wealthy family if you take her with you, right?"

Yun Shaokai pointed at Yun Xiaoxiao, who was standing quietly to the side, and sneered.

"You two, if you haven't decided who will have custody of the child, we cannot process your divorce," the staff member said, unable to watch any longer.

What kind of ridiculous parents were these, saying such things in front of a child?

If they didn't want to raise her, why did they have her in the first place?

With the divorce application rejected, the couple continued arguing as they walked towards the exit.

Yun Xiaoxiao silently followed behind on her short legs.

Suddenly, a shadow loomed over her.

She looked up and met a pair of eyes filled with disgust.

"Don't follow me, go with your father!"

She glared at Yun Xiaoxiao in revulsion, snorted coldly, and strode away in her high heels.

Watching the woman's heartless departure, Yun Xiaoxiao lowered her head quietly.

Under her thick lashes, a pair of bright eyes held a coldness that didn't match her age.

In her previous life, at the same time, in the same place.

What had she done then?

Oh, right...

Cried...

That's right, in her previous life she had cried until her eyes were swollen.

Begging them not to divorce, begging her mother to take her.

But all she got in return was a cold "Your dad will find you lots of new moms" before being pushed away mercilessly.

Her tiny body fell onto the cold ground.

It was her body that hurt, but it was her heart that shattered.

"What a jinx!" Yun Shaokai kicked the nearby flower bed in frustration.

"Here's a hundred yuan, take a taxi home yourself."

He irritably pulled out a hundred-yuan note from his wallet and tossed it on the ground.

Then he quickly walked towards his luxury car.

From start to finish, he never looked back at Yun Xiaoxiao once.

As he was about to get in the car, he answered a phone call.

"Alright, baby, wait for me. Of course I love you the most..."

Yun Xiaoxiao didn't know what else Yun Shaokai said, because the car had already driven away.

All that was left for her was a cloud of dust.

Yun Xiaoxiao picked up the hundred-yuan note from the ground, her small fingers lightly tapping it.

Watching the rapidly disappearing car, the corners of her lips curved into an ambiguous smile.

How utterly heartless...

What should she do? She really wanted to... tear them apart!

Deep hatred lurked in the depths of Yun Xiaoxiao's eyes.

In her previous life, after the apocalypse broke out, her "good father" cursed her as a burden every day. She would be scolded and beaten just for asking for a bite to eat.
