University student Qin Xiaoyu died with deep regrets, betrayed by a scumbag. Reborn, she finds herself in the body of a 25-year-old young widow with depression and two children, living in the 1980s...
"How could I have used it wrong?" Qin Xiaoyu exclaimed, her eyes wide with surprise.
"Heh, who knows? Anyway, Bai Weiwei insists she doesn't know. The girl can't produce any evidence either. Whether Bai Weiwei wrote it wrong or she copied it wrong, only God knows."
"That level was pretty high, that's scary. But why has it regressed now? Could it be that she's become complacent because she's never had a worthy opponent?" Qin Xiaoyu muttered to herself.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Commander Wang didn't understand a word.
"It's alright, don't worry, Aunt Wang, I know what I'm doing." Qin Xiaoyu smiled and took her arm, striding out.
"Sigh, Xiaoyu, sometimes I think, it's a good thing you had a falling out with Zhou Xing. If it were Wang Lei, I would be so worried. But then I think, I didn't get such a good daughter-in-law either." Commander Wang realized he had spoken out of turn, so he shut his mouth and refused to say another word.
Zhou Xing's mother was so busy with the military-themed cultural performance that she neglected her own daughter. Qin Xiaoyu couldn't be so heartless; she had to go see Zhou Yue.
Zhou Xing was seeing patients at the outpatient clinic. There weren't many patients in the afternoon. The nurse at the door was dozing off. She was startled when she saw the person coming in. But when she saw that it was Qin Xiaoyu, she pushed the door open and let her in. She had come more than once and they all knew each other.
"Why are you here?" Zhou Xing couldn't hide his joy.
"I need Zhou Yue's home address."
"Don't interfere in my sister's affairs."
“Say it to me again,” Qin Xiaoyu said, staring at him and enunciating each word clearly.
"Wait a minute." Zhou Xing quickly sat down, tore off a medical record, and started writing the address.
The young intern sitting opposite him had half a mouthful of water in his mouth, unsure whether to spit it out or swallow it, his face turning red from holding it in.
Qin Xiaoyu guessed that Zhou Xing was also very arrogant in the hospital, and seeing him get punished would be very satisfying.
Zhou Yue's father-in-law is in the military, but her mother-in-law is different from Zhou Xing's mother. She doesn't stay at home with her husband, but works for the government and holds a fairly high position.
Qin Xiaoyue had met Zhou Yue at her wedding; she was a very capable woman. Zhou Yue, being such a meek lamb, must have suffered a lot.
When Qin Xiaoyu arrived at the gate of the government compound, she was turned away.
People can't just come and go as they please; outsiders have to register. But Qin Xiaoyu doesn't have a workplace or a letter of introduction, and when she called Zhou Yue's in-laws, they refused to see her.
Qin Xiaoyu was standing outside the guard post, gathering her strength, when she suddenly saw Director Feng walking over.
"Little Fish, what are you doing here?"
"Aunt Feng, I've come to see Zhou Yue."
"Oh, come with me. It's been a long time since I've seen Zhou Yue." Director Feng led the group inside, and even the most foolish guard wouldn't stop them.
"It's been so long since we've seen each other, I'm worried about you," Qin Xiaoyu sighed.
“Come visit us sometime, it’s so quiet here. When Jingtian was home, we could still see each other even though he wasn’t always here. But now…” Director Feng looked worried. Qin Xiaoyu was quite annoyed with the mother and son, but she couldn’t bear to see them like this.
“Aunt Feng, you should come to the hairdressing school whenever you have time. Aunt Wang comes over often, so it’s good for you two to chat.”
“It’s not that I have nothing to do, I’m busy with work, it’s just that I feel empty inside. Sigh, I just let the child go, thinking that would keep him tied down, but…”
Qin Xiaoyu guessed it was about Jing Tian and Bai Weiwei breaking up. She didn't want to comment on it, so she simply listened.
Speak of the devil, and he appears. Bai Weiwei strolled over from the opposite side, startling Director Feng, who pulled Qin Xiaoyu around a corner.
"That building, the courtyard on the far end is Zhou Yue's house." Director Feng gave Qin Xiaoyu directions and hurried away.
Qin Xiaoyu walked to the door and rang the doorbell.
The person who answered the door was a guard with a face full of class struggle, as if Qin Xiaoyu had come to cause trouble.
"I'm looking for Zhou Yue."
She's not here.
Where did she go?
"have no idea."
"Then I'll go inside and wait!" Qin Xiaoyu's temper flared up, and she insisted on barging in.
“Zhou Yue is indeed not here; she went to Guangzhou on her own.” It was Zhou Yue’s mother-in-law who came out, giving Qin Xiaoyu a condescending look.
"Going to Guangzhou? Who did you go with?" Qin Xiaoyu was a little incredulous. Although Zhou Yue was carefree, she wasn't very brave. How could she possibly travel so far?
"She walked away on her own." Zhou Yue's mother-in-law didn't seem to be lying, so Qin Xiaoyu could only pretend to believe her.
She walked out dejectedly, only to be firmly blocked by Bai Weiwei.
"Qin Xiaoyu, I've discovered you're really something. You've even won over Zhou Xing's sister, and your child has subdued Zhou Xing's parents. You're just waiting for the right moment to move in and become the mistress of the house, aren't you?" Bai Weiwei said with a sneer.
Qin Xiaoyu was extremely annoyed with her and had no desire to argue with her. She stared at Bai Weiwei for a long time, then suddenly had an idea. Fine, you like to be unreasonable, so I won't play by the rules either!
"Shut up! No matter how heartless, cruel, or unreasonable I am, I will never be more heartless, cruel, or unreasonable than you!" This classic line from the drama "Romance in the Rain" was originally something Qin Xiaoyu and her classmates often said when they were joking around. They practiced it countless times before they could say it smoothly, and now it really fits the occasion.
Bai Weiwei was startled by her sudden outburst of madness and stared at her blankly.
"Got it, little cousin? I don't want to waste any more time with you. You're not as eloquent as me, and your skill level isn't as high as mine. What's there to compare? Go back and cultivate properly!" Qin Xiaoyu poked Bai Weiwei's chest with her index finger without any politeness.
"Brother Xing, does he know you're like this?" Bai Weiwei asked, stunned.
"Him? Of course he knows. You probably don't know how we met, do you? You think Tang Wenwen would introduce her widowed sister-in-law to Zhou Xing? NO, Zhou Xing and I bumped into each other!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Do you know about that negative review that caused Zhou Xing's internship to be extended by three months? I wrote it!"
"you?"
"You know about the library incident, right? Read with your eyes, of course. But it's with my eyes, not yours. You can only look down on people! Yes, that's what I said!"
"you?"
"And Jing Tian's face, I scratched it. Tang Wenwen is so infatuated with him, how could she do that? It was me, I scratched it myself! In front of Zhou Xing, understand?"
"don't know!"
“If you don’t understand, think about it carefully. From childhood to adulthood, Zhou Xing has always been surrounded by people who obey him. Only I said no to him, only I said he was worthless. Of course, I am the most special one, so…” Qin Xiaoyu blinked and showed an innocent smile.
"I understand, that's why he fell in love with someone special like you."
"YES! Congratulations on answering so quickly! Go on, keep practicing, maybe you'll have another chance." Qin Xiaoyu left the stunned Bai Weiwei behind and strode away, feeling more satisfied than ever before.
But wait, who is this woman in front of me?
Qing Xiaoxu?
Qin Xiaoyu's steps were less confident, tinged with a hint of panic. She might have encountered a big boss; she needed to be extra careful.
Zhou Yue left without saying goodbye and went to Guangzhou by herself. Qin Xiaoyu became increasingly worried about her situation.
