Stepdaughter of a wealthy family? The little darling of a Beijing tycoon

Although the driver was flustered after hitting the pedestrian, he did not have the slightest intention of fleeing. The entire road was covered by surveillance cameras, and he was clear about his responsibilities. He immediately calmed down and dialed 120 for emergency medical assistance and 110 for police assistance, cooperating with the handling of the situation in accordance with regulations throughout the process.

Moments later, the ambulance arrived with sirens blaring, and paramedics quickly lifted the unconscious Shen Yifan onto a stretcher and rushed her to the hospital for treatment.

Shen Yifan, who had fallen into a deep coma, had his consciousness completely detach from his body and plunged into a chaotic darkness.

On his deathbed, a classic revolving lantern effect struck, with countless chaotic and fragmented images flashing uncontrollably through his mind. Strangely, however, these resurfacing memories did not belong to him in this lifetime.

The scenes unfolded one after another, clear, real, and complete, yet completely contrary to his current life trajectory.

At the hospital, the entire Shen family rushed over upon receiving the news. Shen Xinyi and Shen Mobai waited anxiously outside the emergency room, repeatedly asking the doctor about the patient's condition.

After reviewing the examination report, the doctor breathed a sigh of relief and reassured the family, "Don't worry, the patient was very lucky. The driver braked in time and slowed the car down significantly, so the impact was limited. He only suffered a few broken ribs, along with several superficial injuries and soft tissue contusions. There were no fatal internal injuries such as brain hemorrhage or ruptured internal organs, so it's not considered a serious injury. It's a stroke of good luck amidst misfortune."

The tension eased slightly, but new doubts soon arose—

The physical injuries were not fatal, but Shen Yifan remained unconscious since being brought here, showing no signs of waking up.

The doctor finally explained helplessly, "The patient's bodily functions are all normal, and there is no pathological cause for the coma. Currently, he is subjectively shutting down; his subconscious mind is unwilling to wake up."

Unbeknownst to anyone, Shen Yifan was trapped deep within his consciousness, experiencing a memory awakening that would overturn his understanding of the world.

In the chaos of his mind, the complete trajectory of his past life surged forth wildly, clear and distinct down to the smallest detail.

In his previous life, the Shen family, under his leadership, steadily rose to prominence with rapid growth. He accurately seized business opportunities, successfully established connections with the Lu family, a top-tier network, and gradually rose to the ranks of the core elite families in Beijing. The Shen family enjoyed boundless glory and a solid foundation, never experiencing a period of partial collapse, lack of countermeasures, or near bankruptcy.

But in this life, everything is completely in chaos.

The series of failed collaborations, betrayal by trusted confidants, rapid decline of the company, and his eventual disgrace and serious injury in a car accident are a far cry from his previous life's smooth and prosperous ending.

"No...none of it is right!"

While unconscious, Shen Yifan struggled violently with his consciousness, screaming wildly in his heart, filled with astonishment and confusion.

He desperately compared the trajectories of his two lifetimes, frantically tracing the source of the upheavals, and countless fragments eventually converged into a crucial point—

The day my parents divorced!

The predetermined fate was completely derailed and thrown into chaos on that day!

In her previous life, after her parents divorced, Shen Xinyi followed her mother to remarry into the Li family, while Shen Jingshu stayed in the Shen family and was raised by them.

But in this life, fate has been completely reversed!

Shen Jingshu stayed in the Li family and became their beloved stepdaughter;

Shen Xinyi, who was supposed to go to the Li family, stayed at the Shen family instead!

After three days of unconsciousness, Shen Yifan's eyelashes trembled violently. He struggled to lift his heavy eyelids and finally woke up from the abyss of chaotic consciousness.

The nurse on rounds noticed he had woken up immediately and called his family. At that time, Shen Mobai was still resting at his mistress's place. Upon receiving the news that his son had woken up, he didn't have time for any tenderness. He hurriedly put on his coat and drove to the hospital in a panic. On the way, he called Shen Xinyi and asked her to come over immediately.

Right now, only the two of them remain in the Shen family in Beijing. Shen Yifei is away studying in another province and won't be back for a long time, while Shen Yichen is studying at a university in another city and won't be able to return for a while. The father and daughter hurriedly pushed open the door to the VIP ward one after the other, and as soon as they looked up, a strange feeling flashed through their hearts.

Shen Yifan, sitting on the hospital bed, was pale. The pain in his ribs was still lingering. However, his eyes did not show the weakness and confusion of a patient who had just woken up. Instead, they were filled with deep confusion and disarray. His demeanor was completely different from before the accident.

"Big brother! You're finally awake!" Shen Xinyi walked up quickly, her voice filled with genuine worry, but as she looked at him, her heart skipped a beat, and she felt as if her older brother had become a different person.

Shen Yifan looked up at her, his brows furrowed, and his words were full of confusion: "Xinyi, what are you doing here? You should be at the Li family's house right now. Did the Li family give you permission to come out and visit someone in the hospital? At least the Li family knows their place."

Shen Xinyi was completely bewildered by these words, her face blank: "Big brother, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm your own sister. You were in a car accident and are hospitalized. It's only right that I come to take care of you."

She then muttered a complaint in a low voice: "Speaking of which, my sister is too cold-blooded. You were unconscious for three whole days, and Mom came to visit you several times. She lives in the Li family so close by, but she didn't show her face even once from beginning to end."

"No...it shouldn't be like this." Shen Yifan couldn't listen to anything. His predetermined fate from his previous life was deeply ingrained in his mind. He subconsciously raised his voice and ordered, "Go and call Shen Jingshu over. Have her personally prepare some light and stomach-soothing meals and bring them over. I just woke up and have a poor appetite. Other people's cooking doesn't suit my taste."

Upon hearing this, Shen Mobai, who had been silent all along, finally couldn't help but frown and speak, his tone filled with helplessness and worry: "Yifan, did the car accident damage your brain? You're just spouting nonsense. Shen Jingshu is no longer the Shen family daughter we used to boss around. She's the rightful stepdaughter of the Li family, and her standards and ambitions have long since risen. She no longer listens to the Shen family's orders, and she no longer acknowledges me as her father, nor you as her brother."

"Impossible... Everything's in chaos, everything's completely messed up!"

Shen Yifan shook his head violently, his eyes filled with immense panic and anxiety. He muttered repeatedly to himself, the clear lines of fate from his past life clashing and tearing at the disjointed reality of this life. "In the past life, it was clearly you, Xinyi. You were the one who followed your mother and remarried into the Li family, becoming their daughter. Shen Jingshu stayed with us in the Shen family from beginning to end. How could it all be reversed? Why has everything deviated from its original course..."

He muttered to himself, lost in a daze, completely disoriented.

Shen Xinyi stared blankly at his discomposure. Her brother's strange, incoherent words, his drastically different demeanor, and his unwavering assertion that "it should have been him who went to the Li family"—all these clues connected, and a bold yet chilling guess suddenly sprouted in her mind—

Could it be... that her older brother, like her, was also reborn with memories of his previous life?
