"No... No... "
In a blur, Yan Qingyu felt someone kissing her.
This reminded her of the trauma from her past, making her extremely terrified.
She struggled in her sleep and with a burst of strength, pushed away the person on top of her!
At the same time, she quickly opened her eyes.
Upon seeing her surroundings, Yan Qingyu was stunned.
Wasn't this the broken house she lived in when she was sent to the countryside years back?
The old wooden bed, the few broken pieces of furniture, and the mold on the walls were all too familiar...
Hadn't she already died?
What was going on?
Could this be a dream?
Just then, she turned her head and saw that the man she had pushed away was Xie Yunye, her face filled with disbelief.
The same Xie Yunye who was the boss of Xie’s Group, who proposed to her when she was at her worst in her previous life!
At that moment, there was a knock on the door from outside, followed by a voice.
"Qingyu, I heard that you're not feeling well, Xinghe and I came to see you, quickly open the door!"
It's Lin Mengying and Su Xinghe!
Yan Qingyu's heart suddenly sank, memories flooded in like a tide.
In her past life, she was sent down to the countryside as an educated youth. For some unknown reason, she was violated, causing tremendous damage to her body and mind.
Lin Mengying pretended to comfort her, but she kept mentioning this incident in front of her, making her feel increasingly inferior.
And Su Xinghe, claimed not to despise her, willing to marry her, but in reality was manipulating her psychologically, making her feel indispensable to him!
In fact, Su Xinghe was just interested in her million-dollar property!
After their marriage, Su Xinghe seized her property and caused the deaths of her elder brother and sister-in-law.
Even the child she had raised herself, was the illegitimate child of him and Lin Mengying...
She was trapped in endless pain and despair, her illness getting worse.
Later on, it was Xie Yunye who found her, promising to help her get revenge, but on the condition that she marries him. But by that time, her illness was too severe, and she ended up dying on her wedding day with Xie Yunye...
Thinking of this, Yan Qingyu's entire body trembled, tightly clenching her fists, her anger uncontrollably welled up from the bottom of her heart.
She certainly was filled with hatred...
She wished she could rush out immediately and kill the disgusting couple outside!
But she couldn't.
She had to calm down now, she absolutely couldn't risk her life for such scum.
In this life, she must keep her distance from the scum, and never let the tragedy of her past life repeat itself!
"Qingyu! Qingyu! Open the door quickly! Why would you bolt the door?"
"Yan... Yan Zhiqing..."
The door being pushed open, Xie Yunye looked at her anxiously, appearing even more nervous than her.
"You need to hide..."
Xie Yunye scratched his head in confusion, feeling a bit uncomfortable.
He was undoubtedly acting out of good intentions; Yan Zhiqing should be grateful to him and think positively of him.
But he had impulsively kissed Yan Zhiqing and was caught in the act.
If people find out, Yan Zhiqing's reputation will be ruined. Wouldn't she hate him to the core?
He decided to find a place to hide for the time being and explain after the situation calmed.
But female intellectuals live together. Where could he hide in this room?
Yan Qingyu struggled to sit up from the bed, but her legs went limp and with a 'thump', she fell back on the ground.
Seeing this, Xie Yunye quickly stepped forward to assist her.
"You can go out from the window."
Yan Qingyu pointed toward the window.
Xie Yunye walked towards the window, listening to the outside sounds, then opened the window, jumped out, and carefully closed the window before leaving.
Yan Qingyu watched as Xie Yunye's figure disappeared, then slowly went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Lin Mengying and Su Xinghe were standing outside.
Upon seeing Yan Qingyu, Lin Mengying quickly grabbed her hand, her face filled with concern.
"Qingyu, are you okay?"
Yan Qingyu clearly understood that these two had once betrayed her. She wished she could pick up the stool next to her and smash their heads!
Regrettably, she was now frail, even having difficulty standing up.
Seeing Yan Qingyu's frail appearance, Su Xinghe was also anxious on the side.
"Qingyu, how are you feeling?"
Yan Qingyu replied annoyed: "I'm just feeling a bit unwell, what else do you think?"
Lin Mengying carefully assisted Yan Qingyu to sit down on the kang
a traditional Chinese bed-stove
, speaking softly: "We are just worried about you. As soon as Su Xinghe heard you were unwell, he immediately dragged me to see you."
Yan Qingyu gave them a cold glance, saying, "I want to rest now."
Seeing Yan Qingyu was obviously not in the mood for more talk, they left after saying a few words of caution to concentrate on their own affairs.
Before leaving, Lin Mengying didn't forget to carefully look around the room, then she cautiously closed the door.
Watching this scene, Yan Qingyu felt an array of mixed emotions.
After the two had left, Yan Qingyu ruthlessly pinched her own thigh.
"Hiss~"
A burst of intense pain came, and only then did Yan Qingyu confirm that this wasn't a dream.
That is to say, she really did reincarnate.
She reincarnated back to the year 1970, when she was 18 years old, the age of going to the countryside as an educated youth in Qiaotou Village.
Maybe because she woke up just in time, Yan Qingyu found out that her clothes were still perfectly worn on her body, and although she had little strength, there was nothing else wrong.
In other words, she was not violated.
In her previous life, when she was awakened by Lin Mengying, she found herself completely naked under the quilt. Her heart panicked, feeling as if the sky was falling, her mind was blank, and she wished she could immediately find a crack in the ground and hide in it.
Lin Mengying and Su Xinghe told her that she had been violated.
At that time, she only felt the world spinning, completely dazed.
In retrospect, perhaps in her previous life, she was blameless. It was this cheating couple who had stripped her clothes and purposely slandered her!
In this life, if Xie Yunye had really harbored evil intentions, she would've been powerless to resist it.
But Xie Yunye didn't do that.
In her past life, after that incident, Yan Qingyu was always ashamed, living in deep self-abasement.
It was Lin Mengying and Su Xinghe who comforted her, encouraged her, and cared for her, that allowed her to hold on.
Looking back now, she realized that if it weren't for that incident, she wouldn't have impulsively accepted Su Xinghe's proposal.
She'd always treated Lin Mengying and Su Xinghe as the most important people in her life apart from her family, yet these two had ceaselessly manipulated her!
Not only did they make her raise their son, but they also brought harm to the lives of her brother and sister-in-law.
Given the opportunity to live again, she decided that in this lifetime, she would personally avenge her brother and sister-in-law, as well as herself!
Yan Qingyu felt lifelessly dull, so she stretched out on the kang bed and closed her eyes to rest.
In a drowsy state, she felt as if she had returned to her previous life, back when she was strolling along the bustling commercial street.
This street was also her property. After returning from the countryside to the city, she had handed over most of her properties to that jerk Su Xinghe, but she managed to keep this street a secret.
She sauntered along alone, the array of shops on both sides making her head spin.
There were clothing stores, shoe stores, furniture shops, bedding stores, tea houses, ice cream parlors, small accessory shops, restaurants, jewelry shops, pharmacies...
All of these shops were rented out, and the bosses were ready to open for business. A few of them had already begun their trial operations.
In the middle of the commercial street, there was a large shopping mall and supermarket that Yan Qingyu herself owned.
Feeling a bit worn out after a round in the mall and supermarket, she randomly picked up a bottle of beverage from a shelf.
She unscrewed the cap and took a sip. The sweet and sour flavor spread instantaneously in her mouth, prompting a content smile on Yan Qingyu's face.
Ever since she fell ill, she'd been eating bland meals from the hospital, lacking any flavor.
Even the delicious food delivered by Xie Yunye from outside tasted flavorless to her.
Thinking that she might not be able to enjoy such delicious treats when she wakes up, Yan Qingyu headed straight to the snack section. She ripped open a bag of spicy beef jerky and started eating it voraciously.
After going through several bags of snacks, Yan Qingyu still wasn’t satisfied. All of a sudden, she craved hot pot.
So, she grabbed a few more bags of snacks from the shelf, stuffed them into her pocket, and headed directly to a hot pot restaurant.
Upon arrival, she found that the restaurant offered a wide variety of food items. She picked out her favorite hot pot bases, a variety of vegetables, and some ice-cold beverages. Everything was put onto a tray and brought to her table.
Yan Qingyu added water to the hot pot and added the hot pot base. As soon as the water started boiling, she couldn't wait to add lamb rolls, beef balls, shrimp paste, crab sticks, bacon...
All of it went into the pot at once.
After the ingredients were cooked, Yan Qingyu savored them with great delight.
That hot pot meal certainly hit the spot for Yan Qingyu. She patted her round and full belly, muttering to herself.
"It was all worth it. I haven't enjoyed a good meal like this for a long time."
Being a youth in the countryside, it seemed that dreaming was the only way to taste such good food.
In her heart, Yan Qingyu prayed silently, hoping for such beautiful dreams in the future, even just to satisfy her cravings.
Although the food in her dreams was enticing, reality had to continue.
Yan Qingyu was a bit tired, feeling that it's time to go home and get a good sleep!
