In the previous life, she was fed to dogs by her elder sister, and she was reborn to seek revenge

At this moment in the Bai Mansion, Bai Zhi, the second daughter of the Bai family, was painting in her room. Her room was filled with portraits of men, but the men in the paintings had no facial features.

The maidservant beside her was concentrating on grinding ink for Bai Zhi. She looked at Bai Zhi who was a little distressed at the moment and said, "Miss, I heard from Madam that the master has spent a lot of money to send your portrait to Yixianqian, and commissioned the Ice Man Lu Gongzi who has been in the city recently and is very popular to act as a matchmaker for you, Miss."

Bai Zhi did not stop writing after hearing this. She was still concentrating on painting the picture in her hand, with no intention of stopping at all.

As she was painting, she recalled the person in the painting, and the person in her painting was her brother-in-law, Li Jinghuan, the eldest son of the Li family.

She couldn't help but recall the scene when she first met Li Jinghuan. It was the summer when she was still a young adult. Her elder sister Bai Shuang took her and her younger sister Bai Bing to go boating and appreciate the lotus.

She remembered that the summer was unusually hot. The ice stored in the mansion during the winter was not enough, and the ice shops on the street were sold out.

The weather that day was extremely hot and humid, and the cicadas in the trees were chirping non-stop. The eldest sister suggested taking them out of the city to go boating and appreciate the lotus flowers.

After arriving at the destination and getting on the boat, the eldest sister sat on the boat drinking iced herbal tea, while she and the younger sister lay on the boat picking lotus pods and unwithered lotus flowers in the lake.

Just when she was having fun, the boat suddenly shook, she lost her grip and fell straight into the lake.

The moment she entered the water, she felt extremely cool and refreshed, but soon the lake water poured into her eyes, ears, mouth and nose from all directions, and she immediately panicked.

But the more she struggled, the more she seemed to fall. She could hear the anxious cries of her elder sister and younger sister, but as the sounds became farther and farther away, she gradually felt her chest becoming more and more stuffy.

Gradually, she no longer felt the coolness, but a bone-chilling coldness. At the moment when she thought she might drown, a pair of large hands suddenly reached out from above, and those hands quickly embraced her in a warm embrace.

She vaguely saw a handsome and heroic face. Just as she was about to reach out to touch that face, she suddenly became exhausted and fell asleep.

When she woke up again, she saw her mother's anxious face in front of her. After waking up, she couldn't wait to find her younger sister and asked her that the person who saved her that day was the eldest son of the Li family, Li Jingheng.

As soon as she recovered, she sneaked out of the house with her younger sister. She wandered around the gate of Li's house with her younger sister for a whole day but failed to meet Li Jinghuan.

But she was not willing to give up, and she sneaked out for many days and waited in front of the door of Li's mansion. Finally one day, she met Li Jinghuan who happened to return home.

The moment she saw Li Jinghuan, the blurry face she saw on the day she fell into the water immediately became clear. She looked at Li Jinghuan who was about to enter the mansion, gritted her teeth and rushed over, blocking Li Jinghuan.

Her face flushed with shame, and she stammered out of nervousness, "Thank you...thank you...thank you...thank you for saving my life that day."

Her heartbeat accelerated at this moment, and she seemed to be able to feel her own heartbeat very clearly. After saying that, she didn't dare to open her mouth again. She lowered her head and closed her eyes tightly, for she was afraid that if she opened her mouth again, her heart would jump out of her mouth.

Her sudden appearance did not seem to scare Li Jinghuan. Li Jinghuan laughed at first, and then said as if he was very familiar with her, "Little girl, why did you run out by yourself? Do you want me to call a carriage to take you back?"

Only then did Bai Zhi dare to look up at Li Jinghuan. Only then did she realize that she was so much shorter than him that she seemed to be only at Li Jinghuan's waist.

Faced with Li Jinghuan's words, she was a little at a loss. She stood there blankly and nodded involuntarily.

Soon, Li Jinghuan called the Li Mansion's carriage to take her back, and Li Jinghuan himself followed the carriage on horseback. From time to time, she secretly looked at Li Jinghuan riding on a tall horse from the carriage window.

On the way back home, Li Jinghuan kept talking to her in random places. At that time, she thought they were just chatting about some family matters, but she didn't notice that Li Jinghuan kept talking about her elder sister.

Soon Li Jinghuan sent her back home. Although she was immediately scolded by her father, she didn't care at all.

At night, she lay in bed, with the image of Li Jinghuan during the day emerging in her mind. His appearance, his voice, and even the color of his clothes fascinated her deeply. At this moment, it seemed as if flowers were quietly blooming in her heart.

From then on, she, who had never liked eating, began to eat desperately. She remembered her mother always saying that she had to eat more to grow faster. She always thought of the day when she called her a little one, and she suddenly wanted to grow up urgently.

After that day, Li Jinghuan would always come to the mansion to find Bai Lang who was boarding at the Bai Mansion, and they would always play chess in the pavilion in the backyard.

At that time, Bai Zhi always took her younger sister Bai Bing to play in the backyard, sometimes catching butterflies, sometimes catching cicadas, and sometimes playing with the little fish in the pond.

At that time, Bai Zhi always did some exaggerated things to attract Li Jinghuan's attention, but he never realized that Li Jinghuan's eyes were always looking in the direction of her elder sister Bai Shuang.

At that time, Bai Shuang always loved painting. She often went to the backyard to paint alone, sometimes staying there for a whole day.

Finally one day, Bai Zhi caught a butterfly and shouted exaggeratedly, trying to attract the attention of Li Jinghuan who was playing chess in the pavilion.

Unexpectedly, her cousin Bai Lang noticed her first. He said jokingly, "Little Baizhi, you will never get married if you keep bluffing like this. You should learn from your elder sister."

Only then did Bai Zhi notice that Li Jinghuan in the pavilion had been staring at her elder sister who was concentrating on painting not far away.

After that day, Bai Zhi never went to the backyard again. She locked herself in the room and began to learn painting secretly. At that time, she thought that Li Jinghuan must like women who could paint.

Bai Bing had come to look for Bai Zhi many times. The young girl blinked her big innocent eyes and lay in front of Bai Zhi's window and asked, "Second sister, why don't you go to the backyard to play with me? I found a blue butterfly in the backyard yesterday. Today, shall we go catch it together?"

Bai Zhi was still unmoved and continued to draw on the paper. Bai Bing continued to pester her, "Second sister, why are you drawing on paper all day like the eldest sister? Is this as fun as fishing? Let's go to the backyard to fish together. We can grill it tonight."
