Rebirth in the Eighties: Reclaiming Space and Marrying a Rough Guy

In her previous life, Ye Jin was pure and kind, but she was schemed against by her stepmother and stepsister, which led to her losing her eyesight and being forced to marry the neighborhood rogue.<...

Chapter 184 Missed a Lifetime

The public security comrades spread out the information and asked questions one by one about the evidence currently in their possession.

Although most of this information has been verified, a small part still requires further confirmation by the parties involved.

It was already 6pm when all the information was confirmed and it was dark outside.

Ye Jin's mood today was like a roller coaster, up and down all the time.

My mother's case has remained silent for so many years. I didn't expect that it would be investigated because of her.

I can’t describe how I feel, but at least my mother’s death was not in vain, and those who harmed her will eventually be punished by law.

Ye Jin felt somewhat relieved about this.

But if it weren't for these evil people, my mother wouldn't have died at all.

Especially without that bastard Ye Daqiang, my mother would still be the most beautiful flower in Yejia Village and the goddess in the hearts of countless men.

In order to repay a favor, my mother married Ye Daqiang at a low price. Ye Daqiang's family was very poor and he couldn't even afford the wedding money, let alone the betrothal gifts and the three major items.

My mother didn't ask for anything and just married him simply.

His mother was delicate and soft, and she was beautiful. Logically, Ye Daqiang should have held her in his hands and loved her like a treasure.

Unexpectedly, he was still obsessed with his first love and was indifferent to the wife he married without spending any money. Later, she even disliked him for having a daughter.

Ye Daqiang is illiterate and doesn't know that the gender of the baby has nothing to do with the woman, but that he is destined to have only a daughter.

"Ultimately, Ye Daqiang is the one who bears the greatest responsibility for this matter. If he hadn't left at the beginning and then hooked up with Wang Fengqin, my mother wouldn't have died!"

Ye Jin is no longer the child she used to be. She has lived a new life and has become more mature. She has a thorough understanding of these issues.

"It's Ye Daqiang's fault."

Gu Yan sighed heavily. He was moved by Ye Jin's mother's spirit of dedication, but he also felt that she was foolish.

If you marry a man like this and know that you can't make a living, why don't you think of other ways?

If she had been more ruthless and abandoned her two children, perhaps she would not have died. But the greatness of maternal love made her support the family with her weak shoulders.

A woman who is both respected and pitied.

On the way back, Ye Jin was in a low mood and tripped several times.

Gu Yan held her hand tightly, acting as her eyes and crutch, and led her back firmly.

The night was deep, and Ye Jin felt sad.

Her birth was a tragedy, and her later existence was also a tragedy. In her previous life, she was completely exploited by that vicious mother and daughter.

She lost everything and never found her long-lost sister until her death.

If she hadn't been reborn, how would she have had the chance for revenge?

"Jinjin, don't be sad, I'm here."

Gu Yan's pleasant voice sounded even more gentle in the night, and Ye Jin suddenly stopped.

Gu Yan, who was pulling her forward, also stopped.

He turned around and looked into her eyes, confused.

"Jinjin, why don't you leave? Are you tired? Let me carry you back."

Gu Yan squatted down as he spoke. His broad back was like a mountain. It seemed that as long as she leaned on this mountain, she would always have support.

"Gu Yan, I want to ask you something."

Ye Jin hesitated for a long time and finally expressed the doubts in his heart.

In her previous life, she was killed by Han Wenqing and Zhang Duo. She knocked over the lamp and died together with the scumbag and the secret woman.

The figure in her memory was indeed Gu Yan. She also saw his face at that time, and it was indeed this face.

Her wandering soul could clearly see Gu Yan's panic and recklessness in the fire.

If they had not known each other before, with his rationality and clarity, he would never have nearly lost his life for a stranger.

They must have known each other before, but why did Gu Yan never say anything?

Did he also hide a lot of information from her?

Ye Jin didn't dare to ask, for she was afraid that the news she knew would affect their relationship.

"What is it, you say?"

Seeing his serious expression, Gu Yan put away his smile and stared at her seriously.

His heart was pounding nervously, afraid that what the little girl said would make him sad.

"Have we met before?"

Gu Yan clasped her shoulders with both hands, stared at her face for a long time, and then spoke seriously.

"Yes, I know you, and I'm very familiar with you, but you don't seem to remember me."

"When did it happen? Why don't I have any recollection of it?"

Ye Jin was also very confused. When they met for the first time, Gu Yan asked her if she knew him.

"It must have been when you were ten years old. One time, you were playing alone in the mountains, and I was hunting with an old hunter. We encountered a ferocious beast in the mountains. To protect me, who was seriously injured, the old hunter led the beast away alone."

"I was badly injured at the time, so I hid behind a patch of grass. You were carrying a bamboo basket and humming a little tune, so you must have come here to pick mushrooms."

"Seeing you walking towards me, I was very nervous, afraid that you were a bad person and would do something bad to me. You found me injured and looked at me with concern, picking herbs to treat my wounds."

"I was actually quite scared at the time, but I saw the innocence and kindness in your eyes. I knew you were a good girl, so I applied the medicine with your help."

"You wanted to help me down the mountain, but I knew you were too frail to do it, so I refused. You left alone. I wanted to look for you later, but I forgot to ask your name, let alone which village you lived in. The old hunter came back and took me away. We went to another forest and didn't come back for a long time."

"Then I couldn't find you. I tried everything but couldn't find you. I could only hunt frequently in these mountains. I was looking forward to meeting you there one day. Unexpectedly, God was kind to me and I actually met you. At that time, you were trying to escape for your life. I wanted to help you so much, but you didn't remember me."

When Gu Yan said this, he looked at Ye Jin sadly. He said so much but Ye Jin didn't react much. It seemed that she really had forgotten what happened in the past.

"If it happened when I was ten, then I probably know the reason. My grandmother told me that I had a high fever when I was ten, and after I recovered, I lost some of my memories."

"Among them is the memory of you. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have remembered it. I didn't mean to forget you. I was just sick."

Ye Jin held her head with both hands and banged it hard a few times. Why did she lose this memory?

No wonder he didn’t recognize Gu Yan, no wonder Gu Yan in his previous life would risk his life to save her.

He knew it was her, but she never knew it was him.

The two missed each other's lives like this.
