Luo Keke, a modern-day medical genius, had been plagued by the same dream every full moon ever since her parents died in a tragic plane crash a year ago.
Inside an enormous mansion, a luxurious crystal chandelier cast a cold, dazzling glow over every corner of the grand hall.
A middle-aged man in his forties stood in front of a young woman, his face flushed with rage. Pointing an accusing finger at her like an enraged bull, he roared hysterically,
“Luo Keke! Hand your job over to your sister immediately! Then head to the countryside and marry your fiancé!”
His expensive dress shirt stretched tightly over his slightly protruding belly. His broad face twisted with fury, thick brows knitted together, bloodshot eyes bulging menacingly. His thick lips opened and closed nonstop as spittle flew from his mouth.
Even his usually slicked-back hair was disheveled, several strands hanging over his forehead, making him appear even more terrifying.
Standing beside him were a middle-aged woman and a young lady of eighteen or nineteen.
Though the woman was already in her forties, she remained graceful and attractive.
Tall and slender, with delicately arched brows that revealed her shrewdness, her phoenix eyes shimmered with calculation while her crimson lips curled into a smug smile. Her tailored qipao accentuated her elegant figure, every movement poised and refined, yet the malice hidden beneath her composed exterior was impossible to miss.
The young woman beside her had a delicate, innocent beauty. Her snow-white skin glowed with youthful radiance, her cheeks lightly flushed. Her large, watery eyes seemed pure at first glance, but concealed a crafty satisfaction beneath their innocent appearance. A faint smile played on her lips, giving her the unmistakable aura of a manipulative “green tea” woman despite her sweet and youthful looks.
Meanwhile, the girl being scolded had collapsed onto the floor, trembling helplessly.
Her frail body shook like a leaf in the wind. Terror filled her delicate face as tears welled up in her beautiful eyes, streaming down her pale cheeks and soaking into the expensive carpet.
“Dad… I don’t want to go to the countryside and get married. I want to keep my job. Grandpa left this position to me. I can’t give it to my sister…” Luo Keke pleaded through sobs, her trembling voice filled with desperation.
“Oh? So you refuse to marry in the countryside because you want to stay in Shanghai?” the man sneered. “I get it now! You’ve fallen for Chu Xiao from the Chu family, haven’t you? Just because he stood up for you a few times, you actually think he likes you?”
He spat disdainfully.
“What a toad dreaming of eating swan meat! Know your place! Chu Xiao is destined to become your brother-in-law!”
“As for the marriage your shameless mother arranged for you—you’ll marry whether you like it or not! Don’t even think about breaking off the engagement!”
Without waiting for a response, he continued coldly,
“If you’re smart, hand over your job now. I’ll even give you a little money so your life in the countryside won’t be too miserable.”
After a brief pause, contempt flashed across his face.
“But if you keep throwing tantrums like before, don’t expect to get a single cent from me.”
With that, he folded his arms across his chest and looked down at the girl as though she were not his own daughter, but his mortal enemy.
Watching the scene, Luo Keke’s temples throbbed with anger. Her nails dug deeply into her palms as the veins on her neck bulged.
How could a father treat his own daughter like this?
She wanted nothing more than to rush over and punch the man in the face, but an invisible force rooted her feet firmly to the ground.
Ever since her own parents had died, she had not only endured the pain of losing them, but had also been forced to abandon the medical career she loved in order to take over the Luo Corporation.
She couldn’t help empathizing with the pitiful girl in the dream.
Especially because something strange had happened to her recently.
To her astonishment, a crescent-shaped birthmark had suddenly appeared on the inside of her left wrist.
Unable to believe her eyes, she cautiously reached out with her right hand and touched it.
The instant her fingertips made contact, something unbelievable happened.
A brilliant blue light erupted from the birthmark, producing a powerful suction force that swallowed Luo Keke whole.
Her vision flashed white as her body was pulled into the mysterious light.
When she regained her senses, she found herself standing inside an enormous space stretching across thousands of acres.
The sky above was bright and cloudless.
Mountains, rivers, and farmland surrounded her.
Beside the sprawling fields stood an enormous villa.
Its minimalist design featured elegant cream-colored walls that glowed warmly beneath the sunlight.
Floor-to-ceiling windows reflected the breathtaking scenery, allowing the beauty outside to flow seamlessly into the house.
Inside, the villa looked almost identical to a luxurious modern home.
The living room featured soft leather sofas arranged atop an exquisite carpet, their understated elegance perfectly matching the surrounding décor.
Unique decorative ornaments rested on the coffee table—their aesthetic surprisingly identical to Luo Keke’s own tastes.
Above, an artistic chandelier cast a warm glow that made the entire home feel inviting.
The dining room was furnished with sturdy solid-wood tables and chairs, while the kitchen contained every modern appliance imaginable.
Most astonishing of all…
There was electricity.
Every appliance worked perfectly.
Not far from the villa stood an ancient stone well.
Crystal-clear spring water continuously bubbled from its depths, wrapped in a faint veil of mist.
Luo Keke scooped up a handful and drank it.
An invigorating freshness instantly spread throughout her body, leaving her refreshed and full of energy.
Could this be the legendary Spirit Spring Water from all those transmigration novels?
Her eyes widened in disbelief.
Looking farther ahead, she noticed several enormous fish ponds surrounding the well.
The water was so clear she could see every pebble and fallen leaf at the bottom.
Yet despite their size, not a single fish swam within them.
The still surface resembled giant mirrors, reflecting the white clouds drifting through the sky and the lush green mountains nearby.
A gentle breeze rippled across the ponds, creating sparkling waves beneath the sunlight.
Several willow trees stood quietly along the banks, their tender green shoots just beginning to sprout, as though welcoming the arrival of a new master.
Having always believed that “anything out of the ordinary usually hides something extraordinary,” and after reading countless transmigration novels online, Luo Keke immediately sensed what was happening.
She was probably about to transmigrate herself.
And the person she would most likely become…
…was the pitiful heiress from her recurring dream.
Thinking about the severe shortages of supplies during that era, she realized that if she failed to secure the wealth her grandfather and mother had left behind, she’d be forced to live a life of hardship.
That simply wouldn’t do.
She had spent her entire life surrounded by comfort and luxury.
There was no way she could adapt to such poverty.
Besides, if she really was going to another world, then her mansion, money, stocks, and everything else in this life would become meaningless.
She might as well sell everything and exchange it for supplies she could bring with her.
Without another thought, Luo Keke picked up the phone from her office desk and called her secretary.
“Hello, Secretary Li? I need you to calculate the total value of everything under my name—my houses, cars, stocks, jewelry, gold, all my company shares… everything.”
“Then sell it all as quickly as possible.”
“I need the money urgently.”
On the other end of the line, Secretary Li was clearly stunned for a moment.
But, adhering to the principle of never questioning a boss’s decisions, he simply replied,
“Understood, President Luo. I’ll take care of it immediately.”
