Chapter 1 — Hao Mon Swap

The foster brother wore a washed-to-faded uniform, standing in front of the orphanage gate. As for my younger sister, who has considered money as my life since childhood, she happily ran to him, jumped into his arms, and sweetly called out to her brother. At this moment, I knew that my sister had also been reborn. In a previous life, standing in front of the Luc family - the richest family in Hai Thanh came to adopt a child, and the Tham family was extremely poor. My sister pushed me hard and fell to the ground, trying to get into the black Bentley first. "I don't want to go back and suffer with the poor devils, sister, please bear this suffering for me." It was as he wished to live the life of a rich person, but the smile on his lips became less and less. Even five years later, he was kicked out of his house and froze to death under an overpass. As for me, based on my achievement in passing the entrance exam to the best school, I went abroad with my foster brother to study. With the blessing of my adoptive parents, I got married and had children with my adoptive brother, living a peaceful and smooth life. Reliving her life again, this time, her sister made the completely opposite choice from last time. I looked towards the foster brother who had lived with me all my life, expecting him to say something. He pulled his sister behind him to protect him, looking at me with cold eyes, "Don't come close to my sister." Under my sister's proud eyes, I walked towards the black Bentley car. It's good, I also want to live a different life. “Get in the car, miss.” The Luc family did not send anyone, except a driver. As he drove, he told him the rules to keep when he arrived at the Luc family's house later. "Mr. usually doesn't come home. The lady doesn't like noise. The young master has a bad temper. If you see him, don't argue." I nodded, "I know." The driver looked at me through the rearview mirror, "Also, don't carelessly touch the things in the house. The Luc family is not an orphanage. If it's damaged, you can't make up for it." I didn't reply. The car arrived very quickly. I followed the driver and entered the luxurious villa that looked like a hotel. “Madam, you have already brought it.” The beautiful lady sitting on the sofa arranging flowers raised her head, her eyes assessing me, she waved at me, "Come here." “What is your name?” “Ning Duong.” The lady nodded, "Very good, from now on my name will be Luc Ninh Duong." “Butler Chu, take her upstairs.” "Yes." I followed behind the butler, stepping on the carpeted stairs. Paintings of famous families hang on the walls, and rows of trophies and porcelain are displayed in glass cabinets. All of them exude the word expensive. I also saw these things in my previous life. Not at someone else's house, but later I earned it myself. The butler turned his head to look at me, "Aren't you afraid?" I said: "I will be careful not to damage anything." He paused for a moment and didn't say anything more. Pushing open the door, a spacious princess room appeared before my eyes. “Miss, this is your room from now on.” "The clothes are all in the changing room, and there is a class schedule on the tablet at the desk. You should rest first. The lady will call you downstairs for dinner tonight." After he finished speaking, he left. I walked in and closed the door. The bed is very comfortable, outside the window is a neatly trimmed garden, in the dressing room hangs a series of new clothes with uncut tags. In my previous life, the first time my sister entered this room, she hugged the dresses and cried for half the night. She thought she had finally become a princess. But the Luc family has never lacked a princess. What they lack is someone who can clean up the mess for the young master of the Luc family. I sat in front of my desk and opened my tablet. The class schedule appears. Etiquette, piano, French, horseback riding, tea ceremony, basic business courses, party skills. Each item is packed densely. As soon as I finished watching, the door was pushed open by someone from the outside. A basketball hit me, hit me right in the shoulder, and rolled down my leg. “Hey, you country girl, pick up the ball for me.” A joking voice rang out. I looked back. Standing at the door was a male student about my age, very tall, wearing a black hoodie, and two boys behind him.

Another boy followed. He lifted his chin, as if he were looking at an eyesore. If I remember correctly, he is the only son of the Luc family, Luc Thua Da. Likes racing, likes to fight, likes to skip class, a typical rich young man. In his previous life, on his eighteenth birthday, he raced a car, the car flipped down a mountainside, his right leg was amputated, and from then on his temper became worse. At that time, the younger sister was hated by the Luc family. She cried and begged him to take her out. He ordered someone to throw it out in the rain, saying it was unlucky. “Deaf?” Luc Thua Da kicked the door frame, "I told you to pick up the ball." I bent down to pick up the basketball, walked over and gave it to him. Remembering what the driver said, I called out, "Hey, this is yours." His movement of receiving the ball paused for a moment. A boy behind him laughed, "Thua Da, he's quite reasonable." Another boy said: "Coming from an orphanage, the best thing to do is look at other people's faces." Luc Thua Da twirled the ball in his hand, "Don't think that just by calling me you can divide the Luc family's things." I said, “I don't intend to divide.” “What are you pretending to do?” He threw the ball straight into the room again, "Pick it up here." The ball hit the wardrobe, making a dull "thump" sound. I didn't move. Luc Thua Da's face darkened, "You just arrived on your first day, and you dare to disobey?" I looked at the dent on the closet door, "The closet is broken." He sneered, "If it's broken, it's broken. The Luc family can make up for it." “I can't pay for it.” “So what?” “So you go pick it up yourself.” The door was quiet for a while. The two boys behind Luc Thua Da stopped smiling. Luc Thua Da stared at me for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed, "Okay, you have personality." He walked in, picked up the ball, and as he passed me, he lowered his voice, "Luc Ninh Duong, the Luc family is not a place for you to act rashly." I said: "I didn't come to be rude." “So what did you come for?” “Go to school, eat, grow up.” He seemed to hear some joke, turned around and said to his two friends: "Did you hear that? He knows how to organize himself." The crowd disappeared. The room door was slammed shut violently. At dinner, Mrs. Luc sat in the chair, Luc Thua Da sat on her right hand, bowed her head and played with her phone. As soon as I sat down, Mrs. Luc put down her chopsticks. “Ning Duong, I heard that you and Thua Da had an argument this afternoon?” Luc Thua Da didn't bother to raise his head, "Mom, he doesn't understand the rules." Mrs. Luc looked at me, "Tell me." I said: "He threw the ball into my room and told me to pick it up. I picked it up. He threw it again and asked me to pick it up again." Mrs. Luc frowned, "Thua Da." Luc Thua Da put the phone face down on the table, "It's just a ball, is it enough to tell?" “I don't snitch.” I looked at him, "The lady asked you." He smiled coldly, "You're also good at pushing." Mrs. Luc rubbed her forehead, "Ning Duong, Thua Da has been spoiled since childhood. You understand things better than him, so in the future you will be more tolerant of him." I raised my eyes, "To what extent?" Mrs. Luc was stunned. "He destroyed my room, I picked it up. He broke it again, I continued to pick it up. Later, if he beats someone, do I have to give in?" Luc Thua Da slapped the table, "What do you mean?" The gentleness on Mrs. Luc's face faded a bit, "Ning Duong, you just joined the Luc family, I don't expect you to be too harsh." I put down my chopsticks, "I know." When Mrs. Luc saw that I didn't say anything more, her tone softened again, "Don't think too much. The Luc family raised you, not for you to suffer resentment. It's just that the family needs to be peaceful." Luc Thua Da snorted, "Peaceful? As soon as he arrived, he argued with me." Mrs. Luc looked at him, "You also say a few less words." Luc Thua Da stood up, "I can't swallow this meal." He walked to the door, suddenly turned around, "Mom, are you really going to send him to our school?" Mrs. Luc said: "The procedure has been completed." “Then tell me clearly first.” Luc Thua Da pointed at me, "If she makes me lose face at school, I won't accept this little sister." Mrs. Luc k

didn't scold him, just told me: "Ninh Duong, you heard me. Come to school tomorrow, be a little humble." I nodded, “Yes.” She was satisfied, "Butler Chu, arrange a car for her tomorrow." Luc Thua Da sneered, "Sitting in a car? Is it worth it?" Mrs. Luc frowned, "Thua Da." “Okay, sit down.” Luc Thua Da glanced at me, "Don't vomit in my car." Early the next morning, I put on the uniform that the Luc family had prepared and went downstairs. Luc Thua Da was already waiting in the car. As soon as I pulled out the car door, he threw his bag to the seat next to him. “Sit in the front.” The driver turned around awkwardly, "Young master, ma'am told me to let the young lady sit in the back seat." Luc Thua Da said: "So you told him to sit on my lap?" The driver didn't dare say anything more. I closed the back seat door and sat in the co-driver's seat. The car drove away from the villa. Luc Thua Da kicked the back of the chair from behind, "Did we teach you in the orphanage that you should listen to whatever other people say?" I buckled my seatbelt, "I taught. I also taught you not to kick the front seat indiscriminately, the driver will be distracted." The driver almost couldn't hold the steering wheel. Luc Thua Da burst out laughing, "It's useless to be stubborn. When you get to school, you better pretend you don't know me." I said: "I don't know you at all." “Luc Ninh Duong.” “Um.” “Do you think my mother adopted you because she liked you?” I said nothing. He leaned back in his chair, "She saw that my results were poor and she couldn't control me, so she wanted to find someone to supervise. You think you're the young lady of the Luc family, but in reality you're just someone who studies with you." I turned my head to look at him, "What about you?" “What do I do?” “You, even the people you study with, need it.” The driver coughed loudly. Luc Thua Da's face darkened. The car parked in front of the school gate. He got off the bus first, and his classmates immediately gathered around him. “Thua Da, who is this?” “New student?” "Your family's car came, isn't it your relative?" Luc Thua Da swung his schoolbag over his shoulder, "My mother picked it up from the orphanage." The way those people looked at me immediately changed. A female student with her hair tied in a high ponytail walked over and looked me up and down, "It turns out you're the adopted daughter that Aunt Luc just adopted." Luc Thua Da said: "Lam Tri Ha, keep an eye on him for me, don't let him use the Luc family's name to act rashly." Lam Tri Ha smiled, "Don't worry." She reached out to take Luc Thua Da's arm, but Luc Thua Da did not dodge. I looked at her. In her previous life, the person her sister was most afraid of was Lam Tri Ha. The Lam family and the Luc family are related, Lam Tri Ha has liked Luc Thua Da since childhood. After her sister entered the Luc family, Lam Tri Ha took the lead and isolated her, threw her books into the lake, locked her in the gym equipment room, and forced her to the point of crying in front of everyone. At that time, my sister wanted to stay in the Luc family, so she didn't dare say a word. Now it's my turn. The homeroom teacher led me into the classroom. “This is your new classmate, Luc Ninh Duong.”
