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

Seeing his son's rambling and confused state, Shen Mobai felt a pang of anxiety. He assumed it was a head injury from the car accident that had left him with aftereffects. He hurriedly turned around and rushed out of the ward to find the attending physician for a consultation. In the large VIP ward, only Shen Xinyi and her brother Shen Yifan, who had just woken up, remained.

The door closed gently, shutting out the noise from the corridor outside. Shen Xinyi walked slowly to the bedside, her earlier worried and anxious expression vanishing. Her eyes fixed on the dazed and confused Shen Yifan, her voice low and tentative, carrying a tone only the two of them could understand: "Big brother, have you remembered everything too? You... you also came back from your past life, right?"

Shen Yifan suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with shock. Before he could even process the question, Shen Xinyi simply told him everything.

"What do you mean you're back too?" Shen Yifan's voice was dry, the pain in his ribs still tearing at his body.

"To put it bluntly, we are all reborn." Shen Xinyi pursed her lips and slowly revealed her origins. "In my previous life, you made me take Shen Jingshu's place and marry Lu Ze in a political marriage. Shen Jingshu held a grudge and secretly drugged all of our family's water glasses that night. After I fell into a deep sleep, when I opened my eyes again, I was back to the crucial moment on the day my parents went through the divorce proceedings."

"In my previous life, the predetermined path was that I should have followed my mother to remarry into the Li family, while Shen Jingshu stayed in the Shen family. But when I woke up after being reborn, I deliberately changed my choice and did not go with my mother, but stayed in the Shen family instead."

Speaking of the glory of her past life, Shen Xinyi's eyes still held a trace of reminiscence and melancholy: "How glorious were you in your past life? You firmly held the reins of the Shen Group, strategizing and making the company bigger and bigger. In just three years, the once powerful Li family declined and went bankrupt. You seized the opportunity and rose with the tide, leading the Shen family to squeeze into the ranks of the top wealthy families in Beijing, enjoying unparalleled prestige. My second brother, Shen Yifei, became a renowned genius doctor in the industry, and my third brother, Shen Yichen, independently developed a game that became a hit across the internet as soon as it was released, bringing both fame and fortune. Our Shen family should have been on the rise all the way, and would never have fallen to the point of collapse we are in now."

After listening in a daze, Shen Yifan felt the complete life story of his past life intertwined violently with the disjointed and collapsing reality of his present life, and all his doubts were answered at this moment.

It turns out that from the day of the divorce, when fates were reversed, not only his life was rewritten, but Xinyi was also reborn with memories of her past life. It was because she deliberately left behind and took the place of the Li family path that should have belonged to her that she gradually disrupted everyone's destiny, causing the Shen family, which should have been thriving, to slide step by step into the abyss of decline and destruction.

"So it was you...you changed fate from the very beginning." Shen Yifan murmured, his heart filled with mixed emotions. "No wonder everything was wrong. Shen Jingshu went to the Li family, and our Shen family lost the support we should have had. We made a series of mistakes, which led to Amy's return for revenge, the disastrous project bidding, and the company's imminent bankruptcy."

Shen Xinyi's expression darkened: "Back then, I only thought about avoiding that terrible arranged marriage and not wanting to repeat the fate of being manipulated by others in my previous life. I never imagined the chain reaction would be so huge. My sister has long since lost all ties with us in the Li family. She will no longer care about the Shen family's feelings at all. Now, my brother and I both have memories of our past lives. Brother, we have to find a way to turn things around. We can't just watch the Shen family collapse completely."

The anxiety that had been building up in Shen Xinyi's heart for days vanished, and her eyes shone with undisguised joy.

Previously, she was the only one fighting alone with the memories of her past life. In her previous life, she had never been involved in business operations and knew nothing about company operations, project negotiations, or cash flow. Despite having the secret of being reborn, she was always constrained and restricted. The only bargaining chip she held was Lu Ze's connection with her. She was constantly suppressed by Shen Jingshu and forced to be passive at every turn.

Now that her elder brother has also been reborn, he has a complete picture of the business trends, opportunities, and crises from his previous life. With him at the helm, the Shen family will surely return to its peak and even go further than in the previous life. She no longer needs to be anxious and worried alone.

"So we're both back." Shen Yifan's eyes flashed with malice as he recalled Shen Jingshu's scheming against his family in his past life. His tone was icy and chilling. "That woman, Shen Jingshu, was vicious and dared to harm her own relatives in her past life. In this life, she's become even more arrogant because of her status as the Li family's stepdaughter. The Li family will soon go bankrupt and decline. Even if she holds the title of the Li family's stepdaughter, she won't last long."

Recalling the prosperous days of the Shen family in his previous life, when it rose to become one of the top wealthy families in Beijing, Shen Yifan felt a renewed sense of confidence.

He had personally experienced the full spectrum of the times, the business opportunities, and all the underhanded tricks and loopholes of his opponents. If he could do it all over again, he could completely avoid all the traps, seize the initiative, and push the Shen family to a higher position than in his previous life.

Shen Xinyi hesitated before speaking, "Big brother, should we tell Dad, and our second and third brothers about our rebirth?"

"Absolutely not."

Shen Yifan immediately rejected the idea in a deep voice, "This matter is too bizarre and absurd; ordinary people simply cannot believe it. If we were to say it out loud, we would only be accused of having a brain injury from a car accident and going insane, which would only cause more trouble. This matter must be kept a secret between you and me, brother and sister, and not a single word should be divulged."

Just as the two finalized their alliance, the ward door was pushed open, and Shen Mobai led the attending physician back in.

Holding the latest examination report, the doctor meticulously re-examined Shen Yifan, item by item, and finally said with certainty: "Mr. Shen has no serious organic injuries. The rib fracture only requires rest. There is no damage to the internal organs or brain. The previous incoherent ramblings were most likely caused by memory disturbances resulting from the stress-induced psychological trauma of the car accident. After a few days of rest and as his emotions calm down, he will gradually improve."

"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright!" Shen Mobai breathed a long sigh of relief, dismissed the doctor, and then his face showed the exhaustion and irritability of the past few days. He frowned and urged, "Yifan, since you're alright, get discharged as soon as possible and come back to the company to take charge. The incident three days ago, where Amy took away the core bid documents and the bidding was a complete disaster, has thrown the entire group into chaos. Now the whole company is in turmoil, and many middle managers are secretly thinking about running away and jumping ship. I've been running around these past few days and I'm already exhausted. You're the one who made this mess, and you have to clean it up yourself."

Shen Yifan raised his eyes, his gaze calm and resolute, completely unlike the impetuousness and recklessness before the car accident. He spoke each word with conviction: "Dad, don't worry. I'll return to Shen's Group as soon as I'm discharged from the hospital. This time, I will not only make up for all the losses and stabilize the company, but I will also lead Shen's Group to new heights, completely surpassing the Li family and securing our position as one of the top wealthy families in Beijing. You just need to wait and see."

Shen Mobai was stunned for a moment. Looking at his son's confident and completely different demeanor, he was surprised, but his anxiety, which had been hanging over him for days, was inexplicably relieved.

Although Shen Yifan was capable before, he had always been arrogant and impatient, never appearing so calm and confident. He assumed that the car accident had made his son mature and enlightened, and sighed, "It's good that you have this spirit. The Shen family can't afford another setback now."
