The Charm of a Powerful Woman Spreads Across the World

Chapter 001 Rebirth

Yu Chi Rufeng clearly saw her body being cruelly torn apart, and she saw her sister's terrified face. Rufeng gave a bitter laugh, and her father's words rang in her ears, "If you keep messing around like this, one day you'll definitely blow yourself up."

Yes, she finally blew herself up today. Luckily, the lab was located in the woods in the backyard, otherwise it would have definitely implicated her family.

Dad, you said life is unpredictable, and we should "seize the day and enjoy life to the fullest, lest we leave our cups empty before the moon." You said we shouldn't dwell on things we should forget. So now I'm going to try to forget you all. I should hurry and be reincarnated; maybe I can be reborn in time to be by your side. I'll be a hero again in eighteen years!

Ru Feng thought carefree, waiting for the legendary Black and White Impermanence to come and take her soul...

"Ouch... Ouch... It hurts... It hurts... Ah—"

"Push harder...push harder...Madam, please push harder..."

"Ah...it hurts so much...I don't want to...I don't want to have any more children..."

The constant cries of pain came from inside the room, making the scholar-like man waiting outside extremely anxious; his fair and refined face was already covered with a dense layer of sweat.

"Madam, please bear with it, the baby will be born soon," the man called out into the room.

"Ah—I'll never have another child! Never again!" the new mother repeated through gritted teeth.

"Okay, okay, if this one happens, we won't have any more," the man quickly reassured her.

Ru Feng felt as if she were hiding in a gentle water tank, her eyes unable to open. Listening carefully to the shouts outside, she vaguely sensed that she was inside someone's stomach. Otherwise, why would she feel a force pushing her out? Ru Feng was always pragmatic, so she happily squeezed forward along with that force.

Finally, she regained her sight and felt something soft wipe away the sticky stuff on her body, leaving her feeling refreshed. She quickly and laboriously opened her eyes to see what was happening.

Wow! The baby's mouth opened into a big "O". Look at the red canopy, the red candles on the table, the semi-transparent screen with green mountains and flowing water, the vermilion windows with openwork carvings, and the faint fragrance wafting from the incense burner. Then look at the classical ink painting hanging on the wall, in which a lady is happily chasing butterflies, and there is a maid-like figure next to her.

Then look at the old woman holding her; she's dressed in ancient costume, but her expression is a bit frightening.

Isn't this the legendary ancient boudoir? But what kind of drama is this? She didn't go to the underworld, but instead ran here.

She wiggled her tiny, lotus-root-like hands and feet, and Ru Feng couldn't help but giggle.

I've been reborn!!! Haha, no need to wait eighteen years, I, Yuchi Rufeng, am a hero now!

"Madam... it's a young lady, a young lady!" The midwife trembled as she looked at the baby in her arms, whose little mouth was grinning so wide that her eyes were almost closed, and anxiously looked at the young woman on the bed.

"It's a young lady? Wow, how could it be a girl—God, why are you doing this to me?" The woman showed no joy at giving birth to a daughter; instead, she cried and wailed.

The door was immediately pushed open, and the man barged in. As he passed by Rufeng, a small breeze blew by, causing Rufeng to shiver slightly.

"Madam, what's wrong?" the man asked anxiously, wiping the woman's face with a handkerchief already soaked with sweat.

"Waaah... another girl? Is Heaven really going to kill me?" the woman sighed.

"A girl?" The man was stunned. "How could this be? The doctor clearly said it was a boy. Wet nurse, bring him here quickly so I can see him."

After repeated checks, the man finally despaired: "It really is a girl!"

"Waaah..." The woman cried even harder.

Ru Feng frowned. Not only had this man sexually harassed her, but he also made such a bitter face afterward. It was simply outrageous! She clenched her small, fleshy fist and tried to swing it at the man's face! Unfortunately, she couldn't reach it. No problem, she quickly grabbed his shirt.

Phew—finally, she'd gotten his attention back. Hmm, he really was good-looking, fair-skinned and clean-shaven, clearly the kind of person who was refined, polite, and well-read. Very good, a good first impression. She wouldn't hold his earlier "disrespect" against her against it. Ru Feng mentally gave him a score, a smile spreading across her face.

Looking at the baby in his arms, Yu Chisong temporarily stopped his frustration. Look, the little round face, the big round eyes, the black grape-like eyes are so lovable, and the little lips and the smile on the corners of her mouth make her look even more charming and cute.

"Madam, look how adorable our daughter is!" Yu Chisong proudly presented Ru Feng to Lin Yilan.

Oh, it's her father. Ru Feng suddenly realized.

Lin Yilan stopped crying and looked at her daughter through teary eyes. Her daughter's eyes were darting around and her little hands were restless... Yes, what a clever little child she was, but unfortunately she was a girl. Wasn't this going to kill her?

"Should we inform Father of this news immediately?" Yu Chisong asked cautiously.

"Notify me? Do you want to take a concubine right away?" Lin Yilan wiped away her tears and glared at him fiercely.

Hmm, it seems her mother still has some authority. Ru Feng was satisfied; she dreaded seeing girls who cried at the drop of a hat, it would break her heart.

“Madam, you know perfectly well that you are the only one in my heart,” Yu Chisong quickly and gently confessed.

"Hmph, you're smart enough to know what's good for you!" Lin Yilan gave her husband a playful glare, her usually shrewd mind immediately springing to work.

"Tell your father that I gave birth to a son."

"Madam, is this—is this alright?" Yu Chisong scratched his head.

"Hmph, it has to work out. In this world, it's better to be a man than a woman. Why should you take a concubine just because I can't give birth to a son? I refuse to accept this!" Lin Yilan's tired face was filled with determination.

"Madam, you know perfectly well that wasn't my intention," Yu Chisong quickly explained. His wife was extremely jealous, and he couldn't afford to upset her.

Lin Yilan glanced at her husband and reiterated, "God is on my side. This baby was born ten days earlier than expected, and the delivery was so smooth. There shouldn't be many people outside who know that I gave birth to a daughter, so let's announce to the public that it's a boy." For her own happiness, she had to sacrifice her daughter's happiness. But who knows, maybe it would have been better to have a boy.

"Alright, we'll do as you say, Madam. From now on, the three of us will raise this child together, without relying on anyone else. Let's deal with this first, and we'll worry about the rest later!" Yu Chi Song was resolute once again.

Thus, in front of Ru Feng, her parents made a final decision about her gender. From then on, the General's Mansion no longer had a second young lady, but only a young master!

Like a whimsical wind, being a man isn't so bad. Hey, dressing up as a man is a great challenge! She's always loved excitement and the games she plays are dangerous, so her dad always says she was born the wrong gender.

Hehe, now she also has a gender called "male".

Like the wind, weary and asleep, filled with anticipation for the future.

In the chaos, no one noticed that the baby hadn't cried at all, nor did anyone notice the strange expression on the baby's face.

The border of the Violet Kingdom

"Master, the young master has sent a letter!" A soldier of about forty years old shouted as he ran into the tent, holding up a letter.

"Really? Quickly let this old man see it!" Inside the tent, a robust man who looked like a fifty-year-old general, his face covered in dust, eagerly unfolded the letter. He didn't pursue the soldier's rudeness, and his hands were trembling with anxiety. Where was his usual composure, which could remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him?

"Master, don't worry, the young mistress will give birth to a little prince." The soldier beside him comforted him, his eyes also looking expectantly at the thin letter.

quite a while

Yu Chi Huaiyang finally couldn't help but throw his head back and laugh loudly: "Haha... My Yu Chi family finally has an heir!"

His voice was booming, filled with pride and satisfaction!

Chapter 002 Growth

"Mom, my little brother is so cute!" A tender voice came from the mouth of a delicate girl with two pigtails. She poked Rufeng's face with her round fingers, feeling the smooth texture.

Ru Feng was startled awake from her sleep. She rubbed her eyes and saw the little girl outside the cradle. She wondered if this was her older sister. She was quite cute, with delicate features. She knew she had an older sister named Yu Chi Ru Xue, the same name as her sister in her previous life, and also three years older than her.

However, it was not cute when she touched him inappropriately. Ru Feng pulled her hand away and pouted angrily.

“Hehe, Mother, look at my little brother…” Ru Xue laughed and reached out her finger to tease Ru Feng.

"Don't touch your brother, he doesn't like anyone touching him," Lin Yilan gently scolded Ruxue.

Ru Xue pouted and didn't say anything more, just lay outside the cradle and stared intently at Ru Feng.

Ru Feng wanted to tease her, but she was powerless to do so. The baby's body was very fragile and easily got tired, especially for someone who always wanted to be independent.

Moreover, drinking milk every day was a form of torture for her. Although Lin Yilan personally fed her, the hot human milk, which had little taste except for being a little salty, was really unpalatable. However, she knew the benefits of human milk for her body, so for the sake of her health, she still drank it every day with a frown.

This isn't even the most unbearable thing for me; look, here it comes now.

"Husband, isn't this inappropriate? Ru Feng just fell asleep," Lin Yilan said shyly.

"What's wrong with that? On the contrary, she's still young and doesn't know anything. Besides, it's not like it's our first time," Yu Chisong comforted her, his wolfish claws groping Lin Yilan's delicate body.

"But I still feel uneasy. How about we go somewhere else?" Lin Yilan said, panting, but still trying to refuse her husband's advances.

"Aren't you afraid someone will suddenly walk in and discover Ru Feng's gender? You even ran back halfway last time. Do you want to drive me crazy again?" Yu Chi Song frowned.

"But..." Lin Yilan was still hesitant, but her husband's advances were too much for her to handle, and in the end she could only give in halfway.

"Husband, it's broad daylight now, you..."

"You... um, be gentle..."

"Ah, it's too deep...too deep!"

Heavy breathing, soft moans, and after a long while, a muffled groan mixed with a scream, followed by a moment of silence. After a while, a woman's voice, suppressing her breath, came: "Don't let this happen again!"

Ah—ah—

Ru Feng roared in her heart, "Father and Mother, you're moving too fast! I'm not asleep yet! Can't you wait until I'm asleep? And Mother, you've said this so many times, but you always forget. Heavens, don't you know how awful this behavior is? It's destroying my young and innocent heart!"

Either erupt in silence, or die in silence.

One day, when her father was pestering her mother again, Rufeng finally broke down. She wailed loudly, which completely ruined her parents' mood. This happened every time after that. After a while, although her parents didn't understand why, they never showed her any affection again.

When the wind picked up a bit, Ru Feng could be carried outside for walks, but only within the pine forest courtyard. And the adults wouldn't tell a baby what dynasty it was or where it was. Based on their clothing, Ru Feng only knew it was similar to ancient China; nothing else.

Ru Feng didn't know why she hadn't died but had ended up here. But seeing her current parents, who looked so much like her parents from her previous life, she didn't think there was anything to worry about. Since God had given her such a good opportunity, of course she should live well. Living in the present was the most important thing, and there was no need to dwell on some things.

Time flies like water, yet it feels unbearable. She has prayed to God more than once, hoping that she can run and jump when she wakes up tomorrow, and no longer be trapped in a narrow cradle or a big bed.

Clearly, this was just a wish. Relying on oneself is worse than relying on others, so she actively exercised and finally, at eight months pregnant, achieved something remarkable!

She stood up in front of her parents and even took a few steps! Two months earlier than usual, she surprised and delighted her parents.

From then on, Rufeng's activities expanded to the entire Pine Forest Institute.

Soon, Ru Feng's first birthday arrived, and the traditional "grasping ceremony" began. Her grandfather was still in the border region, but he could still remotely control the situation at home, so he attached great importance to the "grasping ceremony" for his only grandson.
