After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him

"If that's the case, I might as well call my dear husband directly..." Lu Zhaozhao said as she took out her phone to dial Song Sinian's number.

Liao Yan indeed panicked instantly, rushing forward to stop her, "The young master must be at work right now; he hates being disturbed the most. It's better for Miss Lu not to touch this taboo."

Her words clearly carried a warning tone.

Lu Zhaozhao snorted lightly and gestured with her hand, beckoning Liao Yan to come closer.

Liao Yan, not understanding why, approached subconsciously.

With a "slap," the sharp sound of a palm striking flesh echoed through the living room.

The other servants present were all stunned; they hadn't expected Lu Zhaozhao to actually hit someone.

And it was the housekeeper she had hit.

Liao Yan fell to the ground, glaring at Lu Zhaozhao with uncontrollable anger, "Have you lost your mind?!"

Lu Zhaozhao looked coldly at Liao Yan, mockingly curling the corner of her mouth, "I'm just doing what my husband requested. If you have any complaints about my actions, you can take it up with him directly."

Liao Yan had been with Song Sinian for so long, she knew all too well that he never cared about such trivial matters. Even if she spoke up, it would be ignored.

She had heard from Xiao Jinglan that Lu Zhaozhao was just a marriage partner, and they had gotten the certificate after meeting just once. Song Sinian probably didn't have much affection for her.

She had wanted to intimidate this young girl so that she would be submissive in the future, but she didn't expect her to be so ungrateful.

Liao Yan clenched her fists, her already wrinkled face filled with resentment, "I'm sent by Mrs. Lu to take care of the young master. What you are doing—Ah!"

Before she could finish speaking, her face was struck hard again by Lu Zhaozhao's slap.

It was bad enough not to mention Xiao Jinglan, but the moment she did, Lu Zhaozhao could no longer contain her anger.

She had just been suspecting whether Liao Yan was colluding with Xiao Jinglan, and now it was confirmed!

She had definitely been influenced by Xiao Jinglan.

That woman allowed everyone to bully her, insult her, and yet she alone put on a facade of kindness and saintliness in front of her.

All for the purpose of controlling her, hurting Song Sinian...

With that in mind, Lu Zhaozhao stopped holding back, grabbed Liao Yan, and delivered a flurry of slaps to her face.

"You! Ah!" "Slap!"

"Slut! Ah!" "Slap!"

"Ah!" "Slap!"

The other servants were shocked by Lu Zhaozhao's ferocity, and those who had wanted to intervene were left frozen in place.

They watched as Liao Yan's face turned into a pig's head.

After a moment, Lu Zhaozhao stopped and sat back on the couch, her gaze sweeping over the servants present, "I am now the lady of the Song Family. Even if you don't like it, you'll have to hold it in, and you'd better not let me find out, otherwise, she will be your fate!"

The other servants who had been in cahoots with Liao Yan exchanged glances furtively.

"Miss Lu, it's your first day in the Song Family and you're already so overbearing; I'm afraid you won't last long in the Song Family!"

"We cannot accept someone like Miss Lu, I'm afraid. We will not serve a woman who is both violent and malicious!"

"If what Miss Lu has done today gets back to the young master, I'm afraid Mrs. Lu's position won't be very secure!"

...

"Clap, clap, clap!"

Listening to the servants in front of her, Lu Zhaozhao couldn't help but applaud, "Well said. Since you are all so principled, I'll grant your wish. As of today, you are all fired."

Her tone was light and airy, yet it stunned all the servants present.

"You don't have the right!" Liao Yan was the first to growl, but the pain from her swollen, reddened face made her instantly bare her teeth in a grimace.

Lu Zhaozhao sneered coldly, her icy gaze swept over her, "Whether you acknowledge it or not, I am Song Sinian's legal wife, and I certainly have the power to dismiss a few servants."

Having said that, Lu Zhaozhao waved her hand as if shooing away an annoying fly, "Alright, you've heard me clear enough, now scram!"

The other servants panicked immediately, working for the Song Family was easy with high pay, and more importantly, the masters never interfered with their affairs.

Liao Yan bit her teeth in dissatisfaction, "You will regret it! Arriving at the Song Family and driving out all the servants on the first day, what do you think people outside will say about you, the new bride?"

Lu Zhaozhao's lips suddenly curled into a smile, yet there was no trace of warmth in her eyes, "Do you think I care? With the wealth of the Song Family, do you think we lack servants?"

She slowly stood up, looking down at Liao Yan with an air of superiority, "On the other hand, you servants being cast out with your loose tongues, who would want to hire you?"

The servants present were absolutely struck by lightning.

They had sided with Liao Yan due to her seniority and the fact that Xiao Jinglan valued her, and collectively bullied the new mistress of the household.

But they had all forgotten, no matter how senior Liao Yan was, or how valued, she was nothing more than a servant.

Lu Zhaozhao looked at them trembling like quails, their necks shrunk, not daring to meet her gaze, and snorted lightly before returning to her room.

She had originally thought it was because of her background that the servants of the Song Family looked down on her...

She had never expected Xiao Jinglan's involvement.

It was only after two years of knowing Song Sinian in her previous life did she find out that she was not actually born into the Lu Family, and that the Lu Family already knew, that's why they didn't care about Song Sinian's bad reputation and allowed her to be engaged to him.

Even after the real Lu Family daughter returned two years later, because of her poor relationship with Song Sinian, they insisted she, the counterfeit heiress, fulfill the marriage contract.

The Lu Family revealed her adopted status the day after her marriage registration with Song Sinian, paving the way for their real daughter.

Because of her false identity, she was mocked mercilessly in the Song Family.

Yet the Lu Family did not care about her wellbeing at all, they simply traded her to Song Sinian for a contract.

Now that she had been reborn, she would no longer be manipulated like in her previous life!

To take control, she first needed to have bargaining chips.

After closing her room door, Lu Zhaozhao immediately went to the sofa in her room and picked up her laptop.

If she remembered correctly, there was an auction coming up that would rock the entire country.

Because at this auction, priceless masterpieces were sold.

Yet her focus was not on these paintings, but on a work named "Remembrance," which at that time only sold for one hundred thousand yuan.

But shortly after, the artist passed away.

And "Remembrance," as the artist's last masterwork, saw its price skyrocket tenfold.

She learned about all of this from the casual conversations of other wealthy ladies while she was at the Song Family.

If she could secure that painting at the auction, she would have her startup capital.

Now the issue was how to get a ticket to the auction...

Lu Zhaozhao nestled with her laptop on the sofa, her hand still slightly swollen from slapping Liao Yan, she looked at her somewhat swollen palm and then at the silent, empty room.

She couldn't help but let out a light sigh; it felt good to hit her, but staying in his room without Song Sinian's approval, she wondered what he would say when he came back in the evening.

Lu Zhaozhao's eyes narrowed slightly; it looked like she would have to resort to that method...
