Chapter 1: Not Dead, But Traveling Through Time
"Sir, do you want to put the person down first?"
"Who cares what she does? It's better for her to die so that she won't be an eyesore. I've wanted to kill her for a long time. She's disgusting just looking at me."
"Sir, what you said is true. How can a brainless and stupid woman like Zhou Xixi be worthy of you?"
"Why are you still standing there? Search quickly and make sure to find the jade pendant."
A noble young man was shielding his nose with a fan and looking around the room with disgust. Coming from a wealthy family, he didn't want to stay here for a moment, but he had to find the engagement jade pendant.
In her dream, Chang Xixi felt as if something was tightly gripping her throat, as if it was dragging her into hell.
No... I don't want to die, villain, look at me kicking you!
She climbed up the thing that was strangling her throat with both hands and kicked forward with both feet.
"Get out of here!" She cursed from her dry and painful throat, and at the same time she opened her eyes to see what kind of monster wanted to kill her.
In front of her, a man in blue clothes was kicked hard by her several times. He fell to the ground with a cry of "ouch" and looked up at her with horror.
Chang Xixi didn't care about him because she was horrified to find that the thing around her throat was actually a hemp rope. She was hanging on the beam with her feet dangling in the air. The rope was getting tighter and tighter, almost breaking her neck.
She was on the verge of death and quickly asked for help. She stretched out her thin, pale hand to the man on the ground, "Save me..."
The man was so frightened by the scene that his eyes rolled back and he started foaming at the mouth. Yellow dirty liquid flowed out from under his body.
Chang Xixi felt despair. Was she going to be hanged to death just after her rebirth?
Then I heard the sound of a rope breaking, and my body suddenly lost weight and fell to the ground.
The severe pain coming from all over her body made Chang Xixi a little more sober, and many strange memories inexplicably appeared in her mind. Chang Xixi then realized that she was reborn!
As the top scorer in the national college entrance examination this year, she was on the plane on her way to school. She just closed her eyes and dozed off for a while. When she woke up, she found herself traveling back to the body of an ancient woman who committed suicide by hanging.
No matter how unwilling she felt, Chang Xixi knew that time travel was no joke and she couldn't just go back whenever she wanted. The only thing she could do now was to accept everything, survive in this strange ancient time, and then slowly find a way to travel back.
"You...you're not dead?"
A trembling male voice was heard. Chang Xixi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man in fancy clothes standing at the door. He was pointing at her with a trembling hand.
This person looked familiar. Chang Xixi searched the original owner's memory and quickly found relevant information about this person.
Zhu Youcai was the original owner’s fiancé when she was the daughter of the Chang family. The original owner liked him very much. At the instigation of her sisters, she went to him every few days to show her affection. However, she didn’t expect that this man, who seemed to be a gentleman on the surface, was actually a scumbag!
This has to start with the original owner's life experience.
The original owner, Zhou Xixi, was the eldest daughter of Pancheng Prefecture Zhou. However, two months ago, it was discovered that she was not born to Mrs. Zhou, but was taken away by a peasant woman named Dou when she was a child. So Zhou Xixi went from being a real daughter to a fake daughter overnight.
Zhou Xixi didn't want to go back to the countryside with her biological parents to live a hard life, so she went to find her fiancé Zhu Youcai, but she caught Zhu Youcai fighting with several women in bed.
Moreover, after Zhu Youcai learned about the original owner's situation, not only was he unwilling to help her, he also ridiculed her and ruthlessly drove her away.
The helpless original owner was eventually taken back to the village by his biological parents, and his surname was changed to Chang, and his full name was Chang Xixi.
After returning to the village, the original owner could not get used to the poor life and suffered a series of blows, so he hanged himself.
After a rough recall of her memory, Chang Xixi stood up, holding her aching head, and walked slowly towards Zhu Youcai.
"Were you the one who just said, 'It's better to die, so you don't get in the way'?"
Her tone was cold and her eyes were as sharp as blades as she stared at Zhu Youcai.
Zhu Youcai was forced to retreat step by step. He did not answer Chang Xixi's words, but asked back in a trembling voice.
"Aren't you dead?"
Zhu Youcai's face turned pale. He had just confirmed that Zhou Xixi was dead, so how could she suddenly come back to life?
Or maybe she is actually a demon now!
Thinking of this, Zhu Youcai's legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground.
"It seems that you were the one who said those words." Chang Xixi had already started thinking about how to take revenge on the bastard in front of her.
It’s bad enough that he’s a scumbag, but he actually watched someone die without helping!
Chang Xixi walked around Zhu Youcai and wanted to close the door and beat the dog, but she saw the original owner's disabled second brother Chang Hai and frail old mother Dou both fainted on the ground in the yard.
Although the Chang family is a poor farming family, they are really good to the original owner, a weak and brainless eldest daughter. Chang Xixi has now occupied the original owner's body, and she can't be as weak and escapist as the original owner. Since these people are destined to be her family, Chang Xixi, then she will treat them well.
"Mom, wake up." Chang Xixi gently patted Dou's cheek and woke her up.
Dou opened her eyes dazedly, and when she saw Chang Xixi, she immediately became nervous: "Xixi, hurry up, they are coming to steal your things..."
Chang Xixi was touched: "Don't worry, Mom, I don't have anything that can be taken away by them."
After saying that, she glared at Zhu Youcai fiercely, "Mom, go find the village chief and go to the county government office to report this. Say someone broke into a house and murdered someone and stole something."
"Who killed and robbed? Zhou Xixi, stop talking nonsense!" Zhu Youcai, who was originally a little scared, suddenly became angry after hearing these words, and no longer cared whether the person in front of him was a human or a ghost.
"Humph, with all the evidence, it's not up to you to say whether it was a break-in, murder or robbery."
