Come and get me!

...

In a huge mansion, Little Fan Wushuang jumped on the new leather couch worth thousands of dollars that her father bought. The couch was placed in the living room where there was a huge portrait of her and her parents hanging above the TV.

The staff tried to get her to stop but she merely stuck her tongue out at them and continued to jump. None of the staff dared to physically touch her for they were afraid that they might accidentally hurt her. All they could do was to keep an eye on her to make sure that she would not fall and hurt herself.

While she jumped, a mischievous thought came to her and she shouted, "Haha! Mummy, I'm jumping on the couch again! Come and get me!"

A beautiful woman came running out with a frown on her face. She was talking with a member of the staff in the kitchen when she heard her daughter yelling at the top of her lungs.

She stood akimbo in front of the couch as she said with an irritated tone, "Fan Wushuang! Don't think that just because your dad loves you and protects you all the time, I can't do anything to you!"

The little girl stuck her tongue out at her mother. She knew that she had her father wrapped tightly around her little finger, so she was not afraid of her mother at all. Even the staff could only shake their heads at her.

The woman frowned. She then went to the girl and picked her up from the couch. Throwing the little girl over her shoulder, she then smacked Little Fan Wushuang on the bum twice before saying, "You little devil! Stop scaring the servants! What if you get hurt? Your daddy will skin them alive."

Instead of being hurt, Little Fan Wushuang laughed before she placed a kiss on her mother's back. "Nah! Daddy won't. Daddy's a nice man!"

She pushed herself up so that she was looking right into her mother's eyes. "Mummy, your threat doesn't work. I know that you love me too much to hit me."

The woman smiled at her daughter's antics. This little mini version of her always managed to talk her way out of things. She then placed Little Fan Wushuang on the floor and wagged a finger in front of the girl's face before flicking the girl's forehead. The little girl pouted and rubbed her forehead while she looked at her mother. "That hurts, you big devil!"

The beautiful woman caressed her daughter's head before saying gently, "You little devil, you're so naughty… What are you going to do if Daddy or Mummy is not by your side?"

Little Fan Wushuang laughed and hugged her. "It's never going to happen! We are going to be living together for a long, long time!"

When Xiao Lei opened her eyes again, there was a pained expression that flitted across it. She had not thought about her parents for a long time now. Sitting up, she took a quick glance around the suite before she sighed loudly.

"It's been so long since I lived in luxury…" Xiao Lei went to the kitchen and found that the fridge was fully stocked.

"Woah!" She gasped when she saw that everything inside the fridge was high-quality ingredients. Everything had a sticker with the word "organic" on it.

Since Head Manager Han told her that everything was paid for, Xiao Lei did not hesitate to make the place her home. She immediately took out a few ingredients.

In the end, she made a huge medium rare sirloin steak with broccoli for sides. It was rare for her and her family to eat steak because of how expensive it was compared to other cuts of meat. Now that she had a chance, obviously she was going to eat well.

While she was chewing, she felt guilty for eating the steak without her son, but… she continued to eat.

"Sorry, Zhi Hao, my precious son. Once I've got enough money, I'll take you out for steak," thought Xiao Lei as she popped another piece of meat into her mouth. Based on her experience, she could tell that the meat was a piece of high-quality meat and not those discounted steaks she used to buy for special occasions.

"Man... This is the life..." thought Xiao Lei as she popped another piece of meat that almost melted in her mouth.

Once she was done eating, she placed the plate into the dishwasher.

"I'm still hungry…" Xiao Lei sighed and opened the fridge again. She took a quick glance before pulling out some ingredients for her to make herself a sandwich.

In the end, she made herself a footlong huge sandwich with three different variety of cold cuts, tomatoes, cucumbers, mashed avocado, crumbled goat cheese, drenched with honey mustard, and half a pickled cucumber on the side.

Loading everything onto a plate, she smiled as she cut the sandwich in half. She loved food but in order to save money, she ate simple food and never ate till she was full. Now that someone paid for everything, obviously she was not going to let this chance go!

Holding the plate carefully, she entered the bedroom and saw a huge painting hung over the king-sized bed with luxurious gold bedding. It reminded her of the painted portrait of her parents which hung over their bed. She used to lie on her parents' bed while they told her about their past.

As she sat on the bed in the hotel, she glanced around the room. Everything was luxuriously decorated, even the flowers inside the various vases were picked to suit the decor inside the room.

"This suite is probably at least $1,000 per night. Damn… They should have just given me the money. That's more than one month of my salary!" She ate the first half of the sandwich and chomped away.

There were a few magazines ranging from a top entertainment magazine to a business magazine that was placed inside the drawer of the nightstand. Xiao Lei took a simple entertainment magazine and flipped it through while she ate her fully loaded sandwich.

Once she devoured the entire footlong sandwich, she lay on the bed while rubbing her stuffed belly. It had been a while since she ate so much, so her face was filled with smiles as she stared at the ceiling with a dazed look.

As she looked at the mini chandelier that sparkled like stars and was hanging over the bed, she thought, "After so many years, I've forgotten how the rich people live…"

She then lightly patted her cheeks before saying, "Xiao Lei, you're Xiao Xiao Lei now, not Fan Wushuang. Forget about everything. Forget about your parents. Forget about your revenge. Just live a quiet life with your son and wait for your husband to come home…"

Still, even as she tried to herself what to do, a small drop of tear soon formed and fell from the corner of her eyes.
