“The Third Lady, Old Lady is there anticipating you. If you couldn’t wake up the Fourth Miss, none of you could afford her blame when she blames you.” An unruly voice was talking.

"You are unreasonable! Muxi fell into the pond, and she was now in a coma, how could she be able to visit Old Lady?” A soft voice was now talking, but she sounded determined.

Another voice was persuading, “Madam, please pour a basin of water on her head. Otherwise, all the people in Xiaoxiang Yard would be punished.”

“How dare you to pour anything! Muxi is the Fourth Miss in Ye Mansion anyway. Don’t you dare to rebel?” The soft voice was defending her.

The unruly voice said with disdain, “Someone, come! Pull the Third Lady aside, and for the rest, wake up the Fourth Miss. God knows if she is really in a coma."

...

Ye Muxi only felt her skull was torn into two parts due to the severe headache, and the chaos around her sounded familiar and strange. She lifted her eyelids, which seemed to have almost thousands of kilograms' weight, and then she saw a basin of water was going to pour on her face.

Ye Muxi stretched out her hand and blocked it, and then that basin of water was turned over, and the water was poured on to the handmaiden. The handmaiden screamed out, and all the rest stepped forward.

“See? I have said the Fourth Miss was faking her illness. Get up and hurry up, you can’t have the Old Lady wait for you.” Aunt Gui sneered, and she didn’t show any respect to her.

Lin Mingyu broke into a smile and hugged her daughter sitting on the bed, "Muxi, you finally wake up. You scared me.”

“The Fourth Miss was not in a coma at all, and she poured water on me deliberately. That was too much even for you, Fourth Miss.” The handmaiden, Baoqin, who was in wet complained.

Ye Muxi checked their faces one by one, and she saw her mother Lin Mingyu, handmaiden Baoqin, and steward Aunt Gui?

She thought, “Where am I? Why could I see them? Wasn’t my mother died years ago? Is this a hallucination?”

No, this was not a hallucination. It was very real, and the ongoing event was so familiar to her.

After a while, Ye Muxi finally realized what was going on. She was not dead, and she had a rebirth to 5 years ago. A long time had passed, and time took away the people she knew, but the building and dead things remained the same. Ye Muxi took 15 minutes to figure out what was really happening.

Five years ago, she just turned 15 years old, and she was not the daughter of the wife in Lingwu Marquis Mansion but only a daughter of a wife, ranking at the fourth eldest in Family Ye in Jiang State. Her father was the future Lingwu Marquis, and he ranked at the third place in the last generation of Family Ye. He had joined the army at a young age, but he was said to be dead in the war. However, Ye Muxi knew, in a year, her father would come back, and he would be rewarded with the title of Marquis due to the military exploit he would achieve in the war and thus upgrading her as a daughter of the wife in Marquis Mansion.

Her father pretended to be dead for protecting classified military missions, so everyone thought he had deceased already. At this moment, in the entire Da Qian Dynasty, besides the Emperor, only Ye Muxi, the reborn, knew Ye Lingxiao was still alive.

Her mother Lin Mingyu, turned out to be the daughter of a criminal. Her dad was ‘dead’, and her mother was the daughter of a criminal governor, so they were reduced to a low rank in the Ye Family. She, the Fourth Miss, and the daughter whose mother was the wife, enjoyed a worse situation than a daughter of a concubine.

Ye Muxi had a brother who shared the same mother with her, but he almost died since he was not healthy or strong after birth. To continue his life, Lin Mingyu took her young son to Zhongnan Mountain to recuperate, leaving the young Ye Muxi to get raised by the First Lady of Family Ye.

Ye Muxi was abetted by the First Lady, so she had a better relationship with the First Lady and disliked Lin Mingyu. She thought Lin Mingyu preferred her younger brother rather than her, the daughter.

Lin Minyu felt guilty about abandoning her young girl in the family, but the rules were strictly set in this big family, and she was unable to take Ye Muxi to the Zhongnan Moutain together.

Lin Mingyu was trying hard to compensate her daughter, but Ye Muxi didn't buy it. It was not until the Xiaoxiang Yard was on fire, and Lin Mingyu died for rescuing Ye Muxi that Ye Muxi finally knew how much her mother loved her, but it was too late.

Ye Muxi’s appearance was destroyed by that conflagration, and yes, that fire was set by Ye Wanrou!

Ye Wanrou! A cold light was glinting in Ye Muxi’s eyes.
