Female lead’s Delusion of Starting Over

Chapter 126: Even Villains Have Good Luck

The orphanage hasn’t changed much. The old, small building looks like it has undergone some waterproofing and windproofing renovations, but that’s about it. The patch of grass at the entrance is still as natural as ever. Some trimming has been done, but it’s still unable to change the situation of weeds everywhere. Yet, it somehow gives off a clean and tidy vibe, probably because people often play on it.

“Big brother, look, look, the tree is still there!” Yu Meng excitedly pulled Lu Li’s hand. Although things weren’t exactly as expected, coming back to this place full of memories with Lu Li made Yu Meng’s heart leap with joy.

Lu Li also smiled. It’s been years since he last came here. The once small tree has grown up too!

Thecaretaker laughed heartily, “When people get old, they become nostalgic! They don’t want to change. The children are all napping right now, otherwise, I would have had them line up and thank you, our benefactor.”

Lu Li chuckled and shook his head, not knowing how to respond. He had been here before, surrounded by a bunch of little runny-nosed kids saying thank you, which, to be honest, wasn’t too bad.

Of course, after getting familiar with the place, that wasn’t necessary anymore. He only came to the orphanage to check on a certain girl he had sent here.

Rubbing Yu Meng’s head, he thought, “She’s grown up, huh? Cute and pretty, have I played a different kind of nurturing game?”

Yu Meng tiptoed, rubbing her head against Lu Li’s hand like a cat that’s always craving its owner’s touch, pretty and adorable.

That pretty face, capable of charming hundreds, showed an infatuation that was truly endearing.

Su Linya smiled, not having seen Lu Li, this brat, for years, and now he’s become a lady-killer! Hearing from Li Zichuan, this wasn’t the same as the last time he went to Hangzhou.

Really…

Your own child, of course, it’s better the more girls like him! As long as he doesn’t let them down, it’s fine.

Not letting Li Zichuan get involved in Lu Li buying a new house was also from this consideration. Xiao Li is gentle but also a man. A man’s thoughts, Su Linya knew, especially about possessiveness, every man has it.

The new house, obviously, Xiao Li intended to use it as a love nest, it wouldn’t be appropriate for Li Zichuan, a man, to go there.

Just…

Her gaze towards Li Zichuan was filled with complexity.

Did she really make a mistake?

Perhaps, initially… it would have been better!

They didn’t stay at the orphanage for long, after all, they were just there to see thecaretaker. The kids from Yu Meng’s time had all left. Besides, this girl didn’t have many friends at the orphanage; it was quite pitiful.

Yu Meng, however, was reluctant to leave, promising the caretaker that she would come back to see her in a few days.

“Speaking of which, what kind of luck do you have, to come to Magic City and even meet a little girl, and so pretty at that, and she even comes back to repay you when she’s grown up?” Li Zichuan draped his arm around Lu Li’s shoulder, speaking boldly.

“When I was little, I even met you, the young master of the Li family, why don’t you mention that!” Lu Li retorted with a glare at Li Zichuan.

“Damn, that’s true, you’re really blessed by the heavens! Besides your family issues and the previous unhappy love affair, everything else for you is just bursting with good luck!” Li Zichuan exclaimed, holding his head: “Does this mean when one door closes, another opens?”

“Pssh!” Lu Li snorted.

Unhappiness from family matters was definitely the most heart-wrenching, the hurt from those closest to you was the most unforgettable.

Anyway, now that Lu Li had dealt with Lu Ya, he had resolved one of his worries.

“Back then, I was so down and out, I didn’t even know I was the young master of the Li family, but you still sponsored me and my mom. Then suddenly, I became the young master of the Li family, bizarre, really freaking bizarre!” Li Zichuan stroked his chin, becoming more amazed as he spoke, his face full of astonishment. Thinking about it, it was truly amazing!

Saving an abandoned child, who grows up to be a beauty and repays him, and oneself also becoming a dandy that can help Lu Li in various ways, is this normal?

“…” Lu Li shrugged helplessly.

He knew what was going on. Initially, he was aware of Li Zichuan’s identity. As for sponsoring him, it was initially just for the plot, being forced by the system.

Later, seeing Li Zichuan’s situation, he genuinely felt pity and then developed feelings through their interactions, brotherly love… it wasn’t as good as Li Zichuan thought.

These things, it’s enough that Lu Li knows in his heart. If the feelings are real, that’s all that matters.

“But you should also thank me, when you came to Magic City, it was because of me!” Li Zichuan suddenly became excited again, patting Lu Li’s shoulder.

That wasn’t wrong. Lu Li didn’t have any friends in Magic City. Initially, he came to find Li Zichuan. At that time, they were already very good friends. Lu Li was worried about him being mistreated upon his arrival at the Li family and came to support him.

But obviously, he worried too much. Given the Li family head’s attitude of valuing males over females, there was no way they would mistreat him when Li Zichuan was the only son.

“Damn, did I actually play matchmaker?” His eyes widened, suddenly feeling somewhat gloomy.

“Xiao Meng, the matchmaker is here, let’s pray together. If it wasn’t for this guy, we might not have met!” Lu Li laughed.

Is this what they call a step in the right direction, winning the whole game? Because of his concern for Li Zichuan, he came to Magic City and met Yu Meng, unknowingly changing the plot.

“Ah!” Yu Meng tilted her head, puzzled.

Talking to Yu Meng, Su Linya also looked over.

Lu Li grinned, pointing to Li Zichuan beside him: “The day I picked you up, I was actually looking for this guy. So, does he count as our matchmaker or not?”

“Ah!” Yu Meng.

“Ah!” Su Linya.

Both widened their eyes, not expecting this kind of fate between them.

If you put it that way, Yu Meng and Lu Li’s matchmaker was indeed Su Linya and Li Zichuan.

“Hehehehe, Xiao Meng, you and Xiao Li really have a fate decreed by the heavens!” Su Linya couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle.

Yu Meng’s eyes sparkled with sweetness, looking tenderly at Lu Li: “Yes, everything is fate.”

Having encountered something as miraculous as reincarnation, what else could she not accept? She and Big Brother really have a destined connection! After all twists and turns, they finally met and got together.

Li Zichuan: “…”

Damn, why do I talk so much nonsense! Suddenly feeling so annoyed!
