Chapter 39 A way ou
4: 00 A.M.
Inside Luo Xiaolei’s room, a buzzing sound broke the silence, waking her up from her dreams. She reached out her hand and grabbed her phone. Upon seeing an unknown number, Luo Xiaolei’s brows creased as she hesitantly received the call. But before she could even say hello, a child’s voice immediately rang, surprising her.
"Mommy! Mommy, is this you?" Luo Xiaolei’s eyes widened and her heart fluttered nervously as soon as she recognized the owner of the voice.
"Little Rui? W-why are you calling at this hour?" she asked as she rose looking at the clock on the table.

"Rui? Little Rui? What happened?!"
When Luo Xiaolei heard the dial tone, indicating that the call has ended, extreme worry immediately flashed across her face as she tried dialing the number again. When the call didn’t connect, she dialed her father’s number as she paced back and forth near her bed. After trying twice, the call finally connected.
"Hello? Father?"
"What is it? Are you finally giving me the good news now for you to disturb my sleep like this?"
"Father, I want to speak with the twins. Please, let me speak with them."
"So you don’t have any good news yet?"
"Father, let’s talk about that later. Let me talk to them firs-"
"How dare you disturb me for some trivial matter! I will only let you speak with them when I have heard the news I want to hear!"
As the call ended before she could say anything else, Luo Xiaolei’s grip tightened. She bit her lip hard as the light in her eyes turned into something dangerous. She remembered how she promised the twin’s mother that she would protect her precious sons. She also recalled the last time she took them out to play in the amusement park. This was when the two cute little buns requested if they could call her ’mommy’. They were the cute, little special lights that helped lift Luo Xiaolei’s broken spirit when no one was there to comfort her, so how could she bear it when she heard them begging like that? Moreover, what if those evil hearted people were hurting them right now?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJust the thought of it made Luo Xiaolei want to just go and storm that house and make them regret messing with her. Her worry quickly clouded her head and before she knew it, her desire to destroy them all over again, resurfaced. She had decided not to take the same path she took in her previous life but if they kept driving her to the edge like this, could she still keep her words?
With a dark face, Luo Xiaolei gripped her phone tightly as a bitter smile carved across her face. "Be glad that I am still powerless right now or else I really don’t know if I can still hold back." She said and after a moment, she covered her eyes with the back of her hand. "Please don’t force me to show you how heartless I can really be."
As those words left her mouth, the danger in Luo Xiaolei’s eyes turned into sadness. She realized that maybe, even in this second life of hers, it still might not possible for her to escape the hatred and cycle of revenge and this was what saddened her the most, because she already went through all that before and that wasn’t the kind of life she wanted to live now.
As she thought about it, Luo Xiaolei lay on her bed again as she stared at the ceiling. She thought that cutting all ties with her family might be the only choice for her to change the course of her fate, after all. She needed to stay away from them and live her own life, but right now, no matter how frustrating it was, she still didn’t have enough power to do that.
"Damn... just a little bit more time and I can finally start flying away and yet... fate... please don’t go against me..." she uttered as if she was talking to fate herself. Luo Xiaolei sounded helpless but there was no sign of her giving up. Her eyes were still full of spirit and instead of feeling depressed; she was relentlessly searching for a way out.
She then lifted her phone to look at the dates again but when a photo of a cute big panda appeared instead, Luo Xiaolei’s deep thoughts shifted. Somehow, the appearance of a certain adorable big panda made her troubled self, calm down and as she stared at his expressionless face, Luo Xiaolei suddenly rose. The worry in her eyes disappeared as an invisible light bulb appeared above her head. It looked like she had finally found a way to take the twins back right now.
