After being reborn, I became the big boss's darling.

“Everyone in our village knows each other. If we report it to the police, the news will spread like wildfire in our small town. Xiao Chen will be taking the high school entrance exam next year, and I don’t want him to be affected by this.”

They raised me for over a decade; these injuries are my way of repaying their kindness. From now on, I owe them nothing.

She spoke these words with a calm and somewhat relieved expression.

Since she said so, Ji Nianci respects her decision.

In the afternoon, after the girl completed all her physical examinations, she was able to be discharged from the hospital.

Shen Ceyan and Jinian Ci decided to take her to Repulse Bay, one of the properties under Shen Ceyan's name.

Ci Yuan originally wanted to bring the girl home to live with them, but he was afraid she would feel uncomfortable, so he had to settle for a less desirable neighborhood and let her stay there.

Repulse Bay is very close to University A, so it will be more convenient for her to go to school.

The car drove smoothly forward, and as the surrounding scenery gradually became more bustling, the girl's heart began to feel uneasy.

I bet the rent for apartments in the city center isn't cheap.

She tried to say something several times, but ultimately swallowed it back.

When the girl actually stood at the door of the house, she was completely stunned.

It was a three-bedroom apartment of over 200 square meters, with a spacious and open layout and excellent natural light. The balcony featured large floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing ample sunlight to flood the room. Standing by the window, one could enjoy a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery outside.

The house's decor is understated yet stylish, with harmonious color schemes and attention to detail that reflects the owner's taste and thoughtfulness. The walls feature soft, light colors, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. The furniture arrangement is also carefully considered, fulfilling practical needs while enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the space.

However, this house is not actually that luxurious; it's just a fairly common three-bedroom apartment.

But for a girl who has lived in a mountain village all her life and has never received attention or importance, where would she have ever seen such a house?

She had originally thought that any house would do, as long as there was a bed. She was already grateful to have a place to stay in this city where land was so expensive.

The girl knew they were wealthy, but that didn't mean she could accept their help without any limits. One shouldn't be too greedy.

What makes her worthy of accepting such a gift from someone else?

After entering the house, Ci turned around and saw the girl still standing there, so she waved to her, signaling her to come in.

"Come here, little sister, come and see your new home. What do you think?"

The girl remained standing there and smiled at them.

"Sister, brother, no need, I'll find a place to live myself. It's such a waste for you to give me such a nice house. I've already received so much help from you, I can't trouble you any further."

Ji Nianci paused for a moment, then said, "It's alright, little sister, you don't need to feel guilty. This house is usually empty, how can it be a waste for you to live here? It would be a waste if no one lived here."

The girl shook her head again.

"That won't do, sister. I already owe you so much, I can't just shamelessly move into your house anymore. Besides, school starts in about ten days, then I can stay in the dorms. I can just find somewhere to make do for the next few days."

Ji Nianci sighed helplessly. Why is this child so stubborn?

"You said it yourself, there are only about ten days left before school starts, so why don't you stay here for now and focus on preparing for the start of school, okay?"

The girl lowered her head and stopped talking.

At this moment, Shen Ceyan suddenly spoke up: "How about this, I have a restaurant that's hiring cashiers, it's very close to here. You can apply for the job and then stay here. The rent will be deducted from your salary, you can just think of it as renting a place, okay?"

The girl's eyes flickered. She looked up and said earnestly, "I can go for the job interview right away, but you don't need to pay me. I already owe you this. I'm already very happy to be able to do something for you."

"..."

Ji Nianci walked over quickly, forcefully shoved the key into her hand, and said in a somewhat harsh tone, "Listen, you're going to apply for the job. This is the staff dormitory. I'm not letting you stay here for free; the room fee will be deducted from your salary. Don't you dare say no again!"

After saying that, she took Shen Ceyan's hand and left.

The girl was left alone, staring blankly at the key in her hand.

Shen Ceyan, sitting in the driver's seat, looked at the slightly agitated woman beside him and couldn't help but laugh, saying, "Why are you getting so angry all of a sudden?"

"..."

In truth, Ji Nianci didn't know why she was acting this way. But seeing her third sister's humble and cautious appearance, she felt a strange anger surging within her.

“I just don’t want to see him acting so cautiously, like he doesn’t deserve anything. She clearly deserves the best.”

In remembrance of Ci, he murmured softly.

Shen Ceyan patiently explained, "This isn't a question of whether it's the best or not. It's that this girl has principles and isn't willing to accept our boundless gifts. She's very clear-headed."

Actually, our approach this time was also problematic. We were always trying to do the best for her, but that wasn't necessary. We went too far, which backfired and made her feel uncomfortable.

Jinian Ci scratched her head in frustration. She understood all these principles, but she just couldn't control herself. Thinking of all the suffering her younger sister had endured since childhood, she couldn't help but give him everything she had.

"So you just had him apply for the cashier job to ease her guilt?"

"Hmm." Shen Ceyan raised an eyebrow. "Otherwise what?"

Well, Ji Nianci admits that Shen Ceyan's thinking was indeed much more thorough than hers.

The third sister eventually moved into the house. She was somewhat unwilling, but seeing Ji Nianci's firm attitude just now, she felt that if she didn't agree, she would seem ungrateful.

However, she didn't intend to do it for free and decided to work for them for free. That way, it wouldn't be too much against her moral bottom line.

After tidying up briefly, she sat on the sofa, took out a pen and paper, and carefully calculated the debts she owed them.

Five minutes later, the third sister looked at the long string of numbers on the paper and chuckled helplessly.

My life is really valuable.

If he hadn't met Sister Niannian and the others, he couldn't imagine what his future would have been like.
