At 35, Jiang Xiaoli went wild skiing with friends, only to die in an avalanche. She woke up to find herself back at 16, a year when her beloved mother was still alive!
Given a second chance, ...
Sun Weiwei was filled with indignation. She loudly accused, "Jiang Xiaoli, why do you humiliate us like this? You are smart, study well, and won an international championship. Your family is so rich. You have a rich and outstanding boyfriend even though you're only in college. Your life is so smooth, why are you treating us like this!"
Jiang Xiaoli felt she really couldn't understand what she was saying, and she pointed at herself in astonishment.
"I'm good at studying and win awards, my family is rich, and my boyfriend is rich and outstanding, so I should give in to you? Listen to what you're saying, is this something a student who surpasses 99% of the people in the country to get into Peking University would say?"
Sun Weiwei seemed to suddenly explode with emotion, "People like you simply don't understand the efforts of ordinary people like us. I got up at 5 a.m. every day for three years of high school and studied until midnight every day. I didn't even make it into the national training team for math competitions, but you easily won a perfect score gold medal in the IMO!"
Before I came to Kyoto, the thing my parents told me most was to be careful with my living expenses. But you often bring out a bunch of expensive snacks to give to everyone, and you buy mobile phones and computers worth tens of thousands of dollars without hesitation!
My parents repeatedly told me to study hard at school and not to date, but you brought your boyfriend with you when you registered for school! You've gone too far!
Her speech silenced the entire dormitory for several seconds, and a large number of students gathered at the dormitory entrance to watch the spectacle.
Jiang Xiaoli snapped out of her daze and scoffed, "What, do you think you're the center of the universe? You're the only one in the world who studies hard while everyone else is sleeping soundly and getting something for nothing. Just because you can't have something doesn't mean others shouldn't have it."
You keep bringing up your dad and mom's opinions, don't you think they're stingy? Go ahead and yell at them, tell them to work harder and earn more money for you. Why are you yelling at me? Can't I spend my own money? Do I have to cater to your financial situation and play house with you in the dorm? Am I your father?
"What's wrong with me bringing my boyfriend to register? My boyfriend is handsome, rich, and outstanding. I want to show off our love every day. What, are you jealous? If you have a plan, go cool off somewhere else!"
Sun Weiwei was so angry by her words that her face turned red, but she didn't know how to refute them. So she used the same trick again, covering her face and running out of the dormitory.
Jinzhi glanced at the others, pushed aside the students watching the commotion at the dormitory entrance, and chased after them.
Yan Chengcheng, standing at the door, couldn't help but clap her hands. "Jiang Xiaoli, you're amazing! If I were her, I'd be furious!"
"Hahaha!"
"That's right, how did this person get into Peking University?"
"Her complaints are absolutely hilarious!"
A group of girls outside burst into laughter and chatter. They had listened to the whole thing and all agreed that Jiang Xiaoli's retorts were spot on.
Jiang Xiaoli walked to the door and said, "Chengcheng, thank you for coming to the dorm last night to talk to me about the BBS."
Yan Chengcheng smiled sweetly, her dimples quite noticeable, and said, "We're in the same class, of course I believe you!"
Jiang Xiaoli thanked her, "Anyway, thank you. How about I treat you to lunch this afternoon?"
Yan Chengcheng smiled and said, "Then I won't be polite! I just heard that you're a rich girl, so I'd feel perfectly comfortable having a meal with you!"
"Haha." Jiang Xiaoli quite liked her straightforward personality. "Okay, no problem. Come to our dorm at 5 pm, okay?"
"Okay, I'll come find you this afternoon." Yan Chengcheng agreed and went back to her dormitory.
After closing the door, Hu Jingxin patted her small chest exaggeratedly, "Xiao Li, you're so sharp-tongued! I promise I'll never argue with you again!"
Chang Yue did the opposite, "Xiao Li, if I ever get into a fight with someone in the future, can I hire you to argue for me? I'm always tongue-tied when I argue with people, but I always remember how to retort later. I always end up losing because of this!"
Jiang Xiaoli recalled how she had been angered by Sun Weiwei that day because of the fan, and had run off to find her fellow villager.
She smiled and nodded, "Okay, as long as you're in the right, I'll definitely help you win the argument!"
Ren Zhiyi watched them chat with a smile, "Now they should apologize and move out, right?"
Jiang Xiaoli shrugged. "Probably. If I were Sun Weiwei, I would never live with you guys."
Hu Jingxin hugged her with a grin, "Xiao Li, you're amazing!"
After chatting for a while, Ren Zhiyi suddenly asked, "Xiao Li, their problems are basically resolved. What are you planning to do about Yu Simiao and Bai Xue?"
Jiang Xiaoli slowly took a sip of water. "Whoever's fault it is, they should take the blame. I'll let the originator of the problem resolve itself. Why should I get involved?"
Hu Jingxin's eyes lit up. "Xiao Li, are you saying your boyfriend will handle this troublesome romantic entanglement himself?"
She nodded. "That's right. I don't have time to think of ways to outsmart a mistress every day. What use is he to me if I can't even solve this problem?"
Chang Yue was just about to climb into bed for a nap when she turned around halfway up the ladder and exclaimed, "Xiao Li, you're so cool!"
Hu Jingxin couldn't help but feel excited, "I really want to know how he solved it, Xiao Li, you have to tell us!"
Jiang Xiaoli popped a potato chip into her mouth. "No problem, I'll definitely tell you."
As soon as she finished speaking, her phone rang. It was Zong Jiayu. "Little Pear, the matter is resolved. Take a look at your Peking University BBS."
"Okay." After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xiaoli raised an eyebrow. "Xin Xin, turn on the computer. The follow-up you wanted to know is here."
Chang Yue was no longer sleepy, so she climbed out of bed and squeezed next to them, staring at the computer screen.
The most popular post on the Peking University BBS.
[Apology Post: I apologize to Jiang, my junior!]
Hu Jingxin clicked directly into the post. The poster was not anonymous; the ID clearly displayed the three characters 【Yu Simiao】.
This is how the post was written.
Hello everyone, I am Yu Simiao, a sophomore at Guanghua School of Management. I would like to sincerely apologize to my junior, Jiang Xiaoli.
I shouldn't have asked someone to post rumors about Jiang Xuemei's private life. I deeply realize my mistake and hereby promise that I will never do it again.
Apology by: Yu Simiao
The post included two pictures at the bottom: one was a handwritten version of the apology letter, and the other was a photo of Yu Simiao writing the apology letter.
This post instantly attracted a group of onlookers, who left comments below it.
[I thought those posts from last night were a bit strange; turns out they were all posted at the same time!]
[Oh my god, what a melodramatic plot! This Jiang junior is the girlfriend of that top student from Tsinghua University a while ago?]
[The comment above is correct! Xiao Yu wasn't satisfied with just being slapped on the left cheek after being rejected, so this time he offered his right cheek to be slapped as well.]
[Hahaha! The description upstairs is so apt!]
