Chapter 10: Adopted

  Volume 1 Rebirth Return Chapter 10 Adopted

  It's night.

  Su Rui lay on the bed, thinking about what had happened since her rebirth. Her rebirth hadn't prevented her parents' death, but she hadn't been adopted by Li Fu's couple either, and instead was taken in as a disciple by the mysterious old man Liu Qingyun. This was a good start, and she definitely wouldn't let her family get hurt again. There were still some of her parents' belongings at home, which she would have to retrieve tomorrow. As she thought about it, Su Rui fell asleep.

  Suri, who had already fallen asleep, and Liu Qingyun, who was lying on the bed reading a book, did not know that in the study, the ancient wooden box, the white jade ring emitted an abnormal glow.

  The next morning, Su Rui woke up early and saw the floral pattern carved on the bed board, finally accepting the fact that she had been reborn.

  Getting up, washing and just arriving at the front yard, Su Rui saw her master Liu Qingyun sitting cross-legged on a cushion in the courtyard, with his hands clasped together and placed on his abdomen. This made Su Rui feel that her master was very distant from her.

  Perhaps sensing Su Rui's arrival, Liu Qingyun opened her eyes, unsure if it was an illusion or not. At the moment she opened her eyes, Su Rui saw a flash of purple light.

  "Get up and go make some breakfast, just make something simple. Today I'll take you to the police station."

  "Yes, Master."

  Su Rui simply made some plain porridge and a small dish. After the master and apprentice finished eating, they set off towards their destination.

  When she saw her master, Liu Qingyun, push out a bicycle that had been left somewhere, Su Rui's mouth twitched involuntarily. She thought to herself, which immortal would ride a bicycle? Su Rui didn't think it was strange for him to ride on clouds and drive the fog, but riding a bicycle... Su Rui couldn't help but imagine it, and it really sent chills down her spine.

  Led by Liu Qingyun, Su Rui sat in the back seat and soon arrived at the household registration office. Seeing the gate of the household registration office, Su Rui was still thinking, why did it feel faster than taking a car?

  When she arrived at the household registration office, Liu Qingyun suddenly became cold and noble, and was completely different from her previous appearance when riding a bicycle. The boss personally received them, but didn't even give them a glance. Holding a cup of water, he occasionally took a sip. Those who didn't know would have thought he was drinking Da Hong Pao tea. In fact, it was just plain boiled water... It wasn't until the big Boss arrived that he pointed to Su Rui with his chin and said, "I want to adopt her, let's do the paperwork."

  The boss hastily nodded and bowed his head in agreement. He turned around to instruct his subordinates, hurrying them to get it done. Meanwhile, he stood beside Liu Qingyun.

  The adoption procedures were soon completed, and Su Rui didn't find it strange, after all, in her previous life she had also been the young lady of the Su family for a few years.

  "That Li Fu, disturbing social peace, it's better not to let him stay outside." Liu Qingyun said calmly, as if saying today's weather is really good.

  "This... is indeed a good idea to let Li Fu reform, sir you are really thinking for the people, I will definitely do a good job on this matter." After saying that, a flattering expression appeared on that honest and upright face. It's truly without any discordance. Makes one unable to look straight at it.

  It seems that Master is getting a bit impatient, and the white water in the cup is about to run out. Before Master loses his temper, Su Rui hurriedly says "Master, let's go back, I still need to get my parents' belongings."

  Liu Qingyun gave Su Rui an appreciative glance. Putting down the teacup, he stood up and smoothed out his already neat clothes, saying "Then we'll take our leave first." After speaking, without waiting for a response, he walked towards the outside. Su Rui naturally followed closely behind him.

  As she walked to the entrance of the household registration office, Su Rui saw the bicycle and looked back at the director and others who were following behind her. She thought to herself, what should I do now? If they see Master riding a bike, his image will be ruined immediately.

  Who would have thought that Liu Qingyun walked out of the police station gate, didn't even look at the bicycle, and then Su Rui saw a red sedan stop in front of them. Someone got out from the passenger seat, opened the door for Liu Qingyun, and Su Rui saw this scene, so she naturally walked to the other side of the car, opened the door and got in.

  For several years, the efficiency of the police station was still relatively high, so Li Fu was taken to the police station while he was at home with his wife calculating how to spend the compensation. Then he was sent to prison on a pile of charges. No matter how Wang Chunhua cried and begged, she couldn't get him out. And when the villagers found out, they would only secretly laugh at him getting what he deserved, ridding the people of harm, it's simply too satisfying.

  Here, Su Rui sat in the car with doubts in her mind, but after all, she was from the 21st century and knew Master's identity, so she wasn't curious about the red X sedan at all. Although the license plate was very special, she just calmly sat on the back seat.

  She was calm, but the man in front of her wasn't. Although there were many cars in the 90s, being able to ride a red one with a special license plate wasn't something ordinary people could do, so how could this little girl be so calm?

  Du Yan cleared his throat and said "My name is Du Yan, I am... Mr.'s secretary. May I ask who you are?"

  Liu Qingyun only glanced at Du Yan when he spoke, then shifted his gaze elsewhere. But that one glance also made the discovered Du Yan's heart tremble with fear.

  "I am Su Rui, Master's apprentice."

  Du Yan's expression immediately cracked, Emma, just now didn't you open the car door for the future master?!

  Wah wah wah ~ I don't know if Master will make me wear small shoes in the future ~ Du Yan's little villain has cried into a dog.

  Su Rui saw Du Yan's facial expressions changing non-stop and thought this person was simply too awesome, actually having so many expressions. In the future when bored can tease him to find amusement. Unknowingly his own fate had already been decided, in the days to come Du Yan hoped he could become expressionless at all times. Let us quietly light a candle for Du Yan.

  "First go to Su Rui's house to collect things." At this time, Liu Qingyun spoke up.

  "Alright, sir." Upon hearing Liu Qingyun's words, Du Yan immediately retracted his bitter expression and transformed into a refined gentleman.

  They soon arrived at Su Wei's home. Su Wei's parents were substitute teachers at a primary school near the village, and although their salary was not high, they had saved up for several years to build a house. However, the house had not been lived in for long before something happened.

  After being away for a lifetime, Su Rui couldn't help but want to cry when she saw this house again. But Master was still by her side, so she held back. She took out the key from under the flower pot at the door and opened the large gate. The yard had been cleaned up neatly, with some vegetables planted. Su Rui remembered that whenever Father watered the vegetable garden, she always wanted to help, but in the end, she would just cause trouble. However, Father never scolded her and would even play with her together. Mother would smile warmly while washing clothes, watching the father-daughter affection with gentle eyes.

  They lived a happy family of three, although the parents had no memory of their past, they still remembered their names and they had recalled many things. All the fragmented memories were recorded in their diary, and she came today to take her parents' diary.

  After living here for over a decade, there were many relics, but Su Rui only took some clothes that her parents often wore, the gifts her father gave to her mother every year, and some of her own clothes. So it was quickly packed up.

  Su Rui walked out of the house with two notebooks in her arms and said to Du Yan, "The package is inside, thank you."

  Du Yan was speechless, but he still went in to fetch luggage for his future master.

  Su Rui took a last look at the courtyard, then locked the door and got into the car, leaving.

  Digression

  I'd say I'm going crazy playing guessing games and don't know how to write anymore, but I definitely won't say that.
