Xia Rou went back to her room, where she sat on the bedside spacing out.

It had only been 3 days since she reincarnated. The moment she opened her eyes, she thought she was dreaming a dream that took her back in time to where she and her mother lived in a duplex apartment. Even though when she had moved back to the apartment and had it renovated entirely, it wasn't the same apartment anymore.

She felt like she was sleepwalking and wandered around the apartment, staring at those familiar details that she had already forgotten a long time ago. Walking down the stairs she could see a portrait of Cheng Wan hanging in the living room, and she was questioning herself: Why did she dream back to the time when her mother had just passed away? Maybe this wasn't a dream after all; had she died and had her soul returned back to this place?

In the end she was awakened by the sound of the doorbell. It was Butler Zhou accompanying the lawyer to come over and have her sign the contract.

Including this apartment, there were two more shop lots that was under her mother's name and both had inestimable value. The rent price alone could already afford her a better life compared to normal people.

And of course, all of these were given to her mother by Cao Xiong.

Cao Xiong had promised to take care of her, and he would definitely have fulfilled his promise.

These properties were inherited by Xia Rou after Cheng Wan passed away.

Xia Rou felt muddleheaded. She robotically followed the lawyer's instructions and signed her name on a few of the documents. She started to feel as though something was off.

The details of this dream were too accurate to be true!

A real dream should be blurry, constantly leaping over the time and disjointed. But this dream! Even the door number of the properties were noted down clearly on the contract.

Xia Rou had always been bad at memorizing things. Since she didn't need to worry about the shop lots, so she roughly knew the location of the shops, but she couldn't remember the exact shop number. She stared at the address and numbers that were written out clearly in the contract, clutched the pen, and finally raised her head.

"Butler Zhou...... I, I'm not dreaming right now, right?" She was uncertain.

The young girl who just lost her only family had a pale face, and she even asked a weird question out of nowhere. Butler Zhou looked at her and felt pity in his heart.

Butler Zhou was Cao Xiong's driver. For someone like Cao Xiong, no matter where he goes, there would be driver and bodyguards following around him, whether for official work or even...... private affairs. That's why, Butler Zhou has known Xia Rou for a long time. He could even say he watched Xia Rou grow up.

He let out a sigh, and comforted her: "Don't worry, the commander is still here, he won't leave you alone."

The lawyer was also one of their people, he did not avoid the conversation but went straight to the point: "I was going to tell you later, but the commander has arranged for you to live in his house, so he can take care of you. That's why you don't have to worry about a thing."

Xia Rou was still holding the pen and blankly staring at him.

In their perspective, this girl had too many shocks within these two days, so she couldn't digest the information any further. They tried to coax her into finish signing the documents until finally they felt relieved to accomplish their mission.

Before Butler Zhou left, he urged her again and again: "You should have some rest, tomorrow I'll be coming over to help on packing up your stuffs. You can start packing up the important things first, as for the others...... You can deal with it slowly afterwards."
