Chapter 1 Rebirth She really went back to ten years ago. That nightmare...
"Have I ever told you that you're not allowed to date before you reach adulthood?" In the exquisite living room, the woman frowned as she looked at her son who was sitting on the sofa beside her.
The boy sitting opposite her explained, "Mom, we are not in love. I told her I was just explaining the problem to her."
"You don't like her either?" the woman asked again.
The boy was silent for a moment, then met his mother's gaze and said, "I like you. But we agreed that we would confirm our relationship after we finish the college entrance examination and go to university."
"Why do you have to like someone like that? Her father is unknown... Her mother was born in an ordinary family, but she was able to live such a comfortable life without a job or production, and she was able to send her to Huaying. What else could she be other than a mistress? With such a mother teaching her by example, what good can she be as an illegitimate daughter?"
"Mom, why do you have to think so badly of me? What's wrong with being an illegitimate daughter? It's not like you can choose your birth. Besides, isn't Ling Yi also an illegitimate child with an unknown father? Didn't you give birth to him?"
Han Chengyu, who wanted to have a good communication with his mother, was impulsive. When he heard her belittling the stubborn and simple girl, he blurted out some words without thinking.
Han Chengyu regretted the moment he said it.
Feeling annoyed, I was about to apologize when I heard a "pop" and felt a burning pain on my cheek.
The merciless slap made Han Chengyu's ears buzz and he was unable to recover for a long time.
Ling Siyan felt dizzy and her mind was spinning. Before she could see the surrounding situation clearly, she was irritated by the voice in her ear.
When he saw the strange yet familiar face in front of him, he slapped him with hatred without thinking.
The burning pain in her palms made Ling Siyan have an incredible guess in her heart. She glanced around calmly and recalled the words she had just heard. Ling Siyan thought about it and quickly recalled what the scene was.
Ling Siyan lowered her eyes and looked at Han Chengyu who was covering his face. She closed her eyes and scenes from her past life flashed through her mind quickly like a passing show.
She died in a car accident, and her father suffered a stroke and was hospitalized after hearing the news; the Ling Group was sanctioned for multiple crimes including tax evasion and theft of trade secrets, and went bankrupt under the sniping of other forces in just one week; her brother-in-law was charged with all the crimes and was sent to prison.
The eldest son whom she spent half her life raising ended up falling in love with Su Ranran, the culprit who caused all this.
Instead, it was her youngest son Ling Yi, whom she had always ignored, who avenged her at all costs.
Unresolved anger and hatred boiled in his chest. Ling Siyan clenched his palms tightly, trying his best to endure it. After a while, he coldly spat out one word: "Get out!"
The slight resentment that Han Chengyu had just felt in his heart suddenly disappeared when he saw Ling Siyan's cold expression.
Ling Siyan never wants to talk much about the past.
But from Ling Siyan's attitude towards Ling Yi, one can guess that the past is too painful to look back on.
He shouldn't have said such careless words and hurt his mother's feelings.
Thinking of this, Han Chengyu felt a little guilty: "I'm sorry, Mom, I shouldn't have said that."
Looking at Han Chengyu with his eyelashes drooping as if blaming himself, Ling Siyan sneered in her heart: Look, what a filial son!
For the sake of a woman, a son could forgive the murderer who destroyed his mother's family and killed his mother while feeling pain.
What a touching love!
"You've grown up. I can't control you anymore. Just do whatever you want to do!" Ling Siyan turned her head away, seeming disheartened.
"mom--"
"Get out of my sight right now. Otherwise, I'll have someone get you a visa and send you out of the country."
No threatening words are as effective as this one. Han Chengyu knows that Ling Siyan is a man who can do what he says.
I swallowed the rest of the words back into my stomach.
Before leaving the living room, Han Chengyu hesitated for a moment, then turned around and said, "Mom, I'm going back to school first. You take care of yourself at home."
Ling Siyan watched Han Chengyu's back disappear from her sight coldly and loosened her clenched hands.
There was blood on the palm of his hand, but Ling Siyan seemed not to feel any pain.
At this moment, a transparent panel in the air attracted Ling Siyan's attention.
There was a strange flash in his eyes.
Unexpectedly, the barrage followed her.
This barrage appeared after her death in her previous life, and it was through the subtitles in the barrage that she learned that the world she had lived in for more than 40 years was actually a world of a novel plot.
According to the barrage, her eldest son Han Chengyu is the male protagonist of the novel titled "Sweet and Lovely Wife's Unbridled Love".
Because the hero's mother looked down on the heroine's illegitimate daughter status, she agreed to the hero and heroine being together on the surface, but in fact, when the hero was not around, she targeted the heroine everywhere.
However, these challenges were resolved one by one by the weak-looking but strong-hearted heroine, and in the end she completely lost her son's trust and ended up miserably.
And she, she is the mother of the male protagonist who deserves to have such an ending, the vicious mother-in-law in the barrage comments.
Later, this novel was made into a TV series, and the subtitles she saw were the comments sent by the audience.
After her death in her previous life, she began to follow Ling Yi. After Ling Yi was caught, she followed Lu Xiao. Her perspective was limited, and many things she could not see, as well as things in the past and future, were revealed to her by the barrage.
Apart from discussing the plot, the remaining subtitles are either praising the sweet love between Han Chengyu and Su Ranran, or condemning her as a vicious mother-in-law and Lu Xiao and Ling Yi who later avenged her.
After Lu Xiao died, she felt a surge of hatred in her heart. Her eyes went dark and she lost consciousness. When she woke up, she found herself sitting on the sofa.
Ling Siyan stared at the subtitles scrolling on the barrage, trying to see if there was any useful information.
[I just finished working overtime. Phew, I am so tired. Is this the male protagonist's mother, the female protagonist's vicious mother-in-law? So beautiful! ]
[No wonder she gave birth to such a handsome son like my husband! ]
[The original novel said she was beautiful, and I thought I would see a flamboyant and passionate blazing rose! I didn't expect that she was a high mountain flower standing proudly on the top of the snowy mountain. This temperament is not like the mean, domineering and vicious female supporting role described in the original novel! ]
[Appearance is justice. I declare that from today on, I am a fan of Sister Yan]
[The above poster's worldview is really influenced by his appearance. If you fall in love with such a person, you may be the same kind of person.]
[Is the person above me a Pacific police officer? Why do you care so much? Who I support is none of your business. Did I grow up eating your rice?]
[You are vicious and you are right? ]
[I killed your whole family. Am I vicious? Eat less durian at night]
Ling Siyan frowned, then continued reading patiently.
[I thought about it carefully. Was the male lead's words just now a veiled criticism of his mother for giving birth to an illegitimate child, which was no different from the female lead's mother? ]
[I don’t think that’s a veiled sarcasm, it’s just a direct mockery! ]
[Wow! How come this boyfriend who protects his wife is not mine! ]
[Well done. For someone like a vicious mother-in-law, being tolerant will only lead to her getting even more aggressive.]
[Don’t you think the male protagonist’s words were too much? Isn’t the male protagonist’s character gentle as jade and gentlemanly as orchid? This ruins his character, doesn’t it? ]
[It was the vicious mother-in-law who spoke rudely first. The male protagonist couldn't stand people insulting his beloved, so it was normal for him to act impulsively.]
[No matter what you think, I personally think that the male protagonist is a bit... ungrateful. Evil... The male protagonist's mother had never done anything wrong to the male protagonist before. As a single mother, she raised the child alone. While working hard to give the male protagonist the best possible material living conditions, she also did not forget to give love and companionship. She had done wrong to many people, but she had never done wrong to the male protagonist. Everyone has the right to condemn Yanyan, only the male protagonist does not have the right. And the female protagonist's mother is indeed a mistress, and the female protagonist is indeed an illegitimate daughter. Your so-called insult is just a reasonable speculation based on facts.]
[What the above said makes sense after careful consideration! Damn, I am a loyal CP fan of the male and female protagonists]
[Go away, evil cult upstairs! Whatever my husband does is right]
[I feel sorry for my husband. This vicious mother-in-law could be so cruel to her own son. She deserved to end up like that.]
[This plot is wrong! In the original novel, didn't the vicious mother-in-law pretend to compromise and accept the heroine, and then rubbed the heroine behind the hero's back every time the heroine came to her house? The vicious mother-in-law's posture just now didn't look like a compromise.]
[I felt that, too. It seems like she doesn't want her son anymore. Is it my illusion? Isn't it said that the vicious mother-in-law cares about the male protagonist's son the most and can't stand the opposite sex appearing within three meters of the male protagonist? ]
[Upstairs, you are not the only one who has this illusion, I have it too]
[It is normal for a novel to be adapted into a TV series and the plot to be deleted or added. It will not be exactly the same as the original work.]
[I hope it won’t be changed beyond recognition, otherwise I’ll use my breakfast money to buy a box of razor blades and send it to the screenwriter and director]
Some people noticed something was wrong, but no one guessed that she was reborn, so Ling Siyan felt relieved.
But that’s normal, the novel doesn’t mention anyone being reborn!
Does this mean that the so-called plot is not unchangeable?
After all, her existence is the biggest variable, isn't it?
Ling Siyan did not have the habit of seeking out insults, and did not stare at the barrage of comments insulting her.
He grabbed a tissue and wiped the blood off his hands.
After closing her eyes, Ling Siyan reached out to take the mobile phone on the coffee table and opened the calendar. The bold black "3036" on it hurt her eyes.
But it makes people feel fortunate and happy from the bottom of their hearts.
That’s great!
Ten years ago, she really went back to ten years ago.
That nightmare hadn't happened yet.
She can also correct her mistakes from time to time.
The straight back collapsed in an instant, Ling Siyan leaned back on the sofa and closed her eyes tiredly.
The previous moment, she was still remorseful for having to watch a man being shot dead in an act of self-destructive revenge, and the next moment, she heard Han Chengyu's voice in a dizziness.
Her son, who had always been filial and sensible, had a big fight with her over a woman, and the relationship between mother and son has been reaching a freezing point since then. How could this not leave a deep impression on her?
Although she was disheartened by Han Chengyu's words in her previous life, he was her son whom she had loved for more than ten years. As a parent, how could she win over her child? In the end, she acquiesced to his relationship with Su Ranran.
But her dissatisfaction with Su Ranran may have been engraved in Han Chengyu's mind after that.
From then on, whenever she was present, all of Su Ranran's grievances and tears came from her deliberate provocation.
But what did she do?
Even though he thought Su Ranran had bad intentions and was not as innocent as she appeared to be, and even though he concluded that she was trying to get close to him, he never thought that she was so ambitious.
She was just a little cold towards Su Ranran, and she thought her attitude was much better than towards Ling Yi.
A mask can be worn for a while but not forever. If you don't wish, your true face will be revealed eventually, just like Han Chengyu's father.
If you can pretend for a lifetime, then the fake will become real.
She never treated Ling Yi as her son. She just waited until Ling Yi turned 18 and fulfilled her obligation to support him before moving his household registration out. All the family property she had earned over the past decade belonged to Han Chengyu.
Han Chengyu is also good enough. Even if Su Ranran has ulterior motives, women are different from men after all. She is not worried that Han Chengyu will follow her old path.
Therefore, she never thought about, nor did she bother to do anything to Su Ranran.
But unexpectedly, she underestimated the ambition a woman could have.
If a woman becomes cruel, she can be crueler than a tiger that will not eat its own cubs. If a woman becomes generous, she can make all men in the world bow down to her in a patriarchal society, just like Empress Wu in history.
Su Ranran just arrived at that place.
Ling Siyan laughed at herself in her heart.
