"Who are you?"
Looking at the sickly Xi Shi opposite her, Wen Qinghe already had a guess in her mind.
"Wen Qinghe".
"My name is also Wen Qinghe. What are you doing here?"
The woman's beautiful eyes were slightly furrowed, making one want to bring the most beautiful things in the world just to smooth the wrinkles between her brows.
"I'm sorry, you were brought here by my obsession."
Wen Qinghe was surprised. Could it be that she didn't die suddenly from drinking?
"What do you mean? Didn't I die and then come here?"
"No, your original body is still alive, but you've fallen into a coma because your soul is gone."
Wen Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that she was still alive, but the thought that she had been dragged there by this person made her look rather unfriendly.
Why did you do this? How am I supposed to get back?
The sickly beauty simply looked at her with an expression she couldn't understand, and slowly spoke:
Would you like to hear my story?
When Wen Qinghe saw that face, she couldn't bear to refuse and nodded.
"Actually, I am already dead. What you see before you is just a wisp of my soul."
Seeing Wen Qinghe's surprised expression, she couldn't help but chuckle to herself.
"My mother's surname is He, and she is a beautiful and gentle person."
But when I was nearly suffocating from the umbilical cord wrapped around my neck, she endured the pain and immediately had the doctor cut open her abdomen to take me out.
But she died from severe bleeding…
For some reason, Wen Qinghe felt as if she could sense Wen Qinghe's self-blame and grief upon hearing this.
If it were modern medical technology, there would definitely be a chance to save her mother…
"And I, because I stayed in my mother's womb a little longer, was born weak and sickly."
Later, I was diagnosed with congenital heart disease, and the doctor had already predicted that I would have little chance of living to eighteen. As it turned out, that was indeed the case.
At this point, she gave a self-deprecating laugh.
"My grandfather was a well-known landlord in his youth, but he never mistreated his farm workers. Because of his kind heart, he got to know many people and made many good connections."
With the help of benefactors, the family was quite wealthy.
Later, the times changed drastically, and apart from his wealth, he was powerless in many other ways. Knowing the importance of knowledge in today's society, he did everything he could to send my father abroad to study.
I hope to achieve academic success and contribute my own strength. After all, there must always be someone studying for the rise of the nation.
My father lived up to expectations, returned to China after completing his studies, and became a university professor, imparting all his knowledge to others.
Because of my health condition and weak constitution, my father devoted almost all his energy outside of work to me.
My family's private doctor and servants almost all revolve around me.
Due to policy reasons, they couldn't be too conspicuous, so they dismissed a large number of domestic helpers, leaving only one live-in nanny.
Even so, the family was the first to suffer the hardship.
Although my grandfather had long since passed away, my father was still alive. They sent him to a farm, and the house was confiscated. I was also sent to the countryside by my father in advance to avoid trouble.
But what he didn't expect was that, due to the sudden and drastic changes in my family, I overthought things and died on my way to the countryside…
When the letters from the production brigade reached the farm where my father had been sent down, the day I received the news, I watched as his hair turned white overnight, and I watched him die of melancholy less than two months later…”
Listening to the sickly beauty's almost choked-up story, Wen Qinghe's eyes welled up with tears. Why was she also in so much pain...?
“I never imagined that my death would be such a blow to my father.”
Wen Qinghe walked over and hugged her, her voice slightly hoarse:
"...What do you want me to help you with?"
"I don't want my dad to be sad for me. I hope he can live a good life and experience happiness."
I've never been able to run or jump since I was little. If possible, I hope you can enjoy life to the fullest and live freely for me.
Wen Qinghe didn't understand: "But why me?"
"Because I am you..."
Wen Qinghe could not hear the extremely faint voice clearly.
After the person finished speaking, she touched her forehead with her delicate hand, and then she turned into starlight and disappeared.
"Hey! You still haven't told me if I can go back?"
Then Wen Qinghe opened her eyes and found that she had actually fallen asleep in her seat.
She brushed away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Was it a dream?
But the coolness between her brows was still there, and the moment she touched it with her finger, she didn't notice that a mole had suddenly appeared on her index finger.
If even her extraordinary encounters upon arriving in this era could happen, it's not surprising that she could enter her dreams.
But that person never considered that she would still feel a stifling pressure in this body, so how could she live freely...
Well, let's just take it one step at a time.
...
The girl across from her saw that she was awake and asked her:
"Comrade, where are you from?"
"Jingshi."
"Wow, that's a big city! Look at your delicate skin, how did your parents agree to let you go to the countryside?"
Wen Qinghe wasn't familiar with her and didn't want her to keep asking so many questions.
"I'm responding to the call of the great leader and contributing my own strength to building a beautiful and prosperous countryside. My family members are all highly conscious of the issue, so why would they disagree!"
After saying that, he ignored her and leaned back in his chair, closing his eyes to rest.
"..."
The girl seemed to realize that Wen Qinghe didn't want to talk anymore, so she wisely didn't initiate any more conversation.
That makes sense, but everyone knows that conditions in the countryside are harsh, and once you go to the countryside, it's difficult to go back to the city...
She figured that since the two of them were assigned to the same place, they might as well stick together and make things easier for themselves.
Looking at Wen Qinghe, this sickly beauty, a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes. Heaven had given her beauty, but it had also taken some things away.
