Chapter 2: Coming Against the Current



Life is like a river, and the most regrettable thing is that it cannot flow backwards. If the river flowed backwards, many regrets of the past would not happen again.

Su Nian felt as if her eyelids weighed a thousand pounds and she couldn't open them no matter what.

Thinking that the flames downstairs had already risen up, Su Nian was suddenly startled and opened his eyes abruptly!

She was surprised to find that she was lying on a single bed, with a white mosquito net in sight. There were two girls sitting in the room, whispering something.

This wasn't the attic she'd lived in for twenty years; it was her old school dormitory! Su Nian closed her eyes in disbelief, then opened them again. She even pinched her thigh secretly, only then did she confirm one thing: for some unknown reason, she hadn't been burned to death. Instead, after waking up, she had returned to her student days!

Before she could figure out why, the dormitory door was pushed open forcefully, letting in a gust of cold wind. Lin Yuemei rushed in, "Su Nian, come down with me quickly! Your brother has found the school!"

Su Nian sat up and nodded coldly: "Really? Thank you for your help!" She said this but did not move again, obviously not wanting to go down.

Because in her memory, her elder brother Su Jianchun only did one thing when he came to Quzhou Medical College, and it was this one thing that changed her life!

Lin Yuemei was dark and sturdy. If this kind of appearance were on a man, it would be considered a characteristic, but on a girl, it would become a naked mockery. Seeing Su Nian's reaction, Lin Yuemei screamed, "Huh? Why aren't you moving?"

Anyone who first meets Lin Yuemei would think that she is an impetuous and enthusiastic person, but Su Nian knows that behind Lin Yuemei's enthusiasm, there are often sinister intentions.

In her previous life, as soon as she left Quzhou, Lin Yuemei told Chu Beichen that she had gone back to her hometown to get engaged and could not meet Chu Beichen again.

At that time, there were no mobile phones or emails, and even landlines were not very popular. Chu Beichen had no way to verify Lin Yuemei's statement. He waited for Su Nian at the school gate for three days but did not see her. From then on, he left Quzhou and went to report to the northwest.

This absence lasted for eight years, and when Chu Beichen returned, everything was already set in stone, and there was no turning back!

Now that Lin Yuemei is urging her to see her brother so anxiously, she must have figured out Su Jianchun's intentions and is just waiting for her to fall into the trap!

"Oh, I feel a little uncomfortable," Su Nian would not be fooled again.

Lin Yuemei was not willing to give in. "Even if you feel uncomfortable, you have to go down to see your brother. He came all the way here. What if something happens?"

Lin Yuemei is so nosy, we must be anxious to get her out of Quzhou!

"Okay, I'll go!" Su Nian still maintained an indifferent attitude.

Lin Yuemei was stunned for a moment. It was obvious that Su Nian's reaction was beyond her expectations. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Then hurry up!"

Su Nian, however, still looked slow and unhurried. Lin Yuemei, who had been about to sit on the edge of the bed, raised her buttocks again and said, "Su Nian, how about I go tell your brother to wait downstairs?"

After Lin Yuemei left, Su Nian picked up the sweater on the bedside and put it on. The dark green cable-knitted sweater looked particularly elegant and graceful on her slender body.

"Niannian, you have a great figure," a girl at the table said enviously. She had two pigtails, a refined demeanor, and black-framed glasses, which added a touch of sophistication. This was Tian Qiuyu. In her previous life, Su Nian hadn't had a good relationship with her. She always felt that her words were harsh and cold, unlike Lin Yuemei, who was warm and easygoing.

However, when Su Nian had to drop out of school, only the usually cold and indifferent Tian Qiuyu was willing to run around for her and try to keep her in school.

So Su Nian knew that Tian Qiuyu was a person with a cold exterior but a warm heart. When the other party sincerely praised her, she smiled and said modestly, "Actually, Qiuyu, you are more beautiful, but those glasses don't flatter you!"

Tian Qiuyu nodded embarrassedly, "Really?" Su Nian seldom talked to her normally, so Tian Qiuyu was stunned when he praised her right away.

There was a thermos with peeling paint on the bedside. Su Nian picked it up and was about to pour herself a glass of water, but the thermos was already empty. "Drink mine!" Tian Qiuyu picked up her own thermos, filled Su Nian's cup, and gave her a friendly smile.

It's not like there aren't good people in this world, it's just that she didn't know people well in her previous life, so now of course she has to start over. Su Nian picked up the washbasin and prepared to wash her face.

The water in the bathroom was cold. Su Nian turned on the faucet, splashed water on her face, and instantly woke up. She had already remembered the date. It was January 8, 1992, and the exam for Quzhou Medical College was two days away.

Her brother Su Jianchun came to the school on that day and tricked her back to her hometown under the pretext that her mother was seriously ill.

This trip was a tragic life. Su Nian missed the time she had agreed with Chu Beichen and lost the man who loved her deeply.

Fearing she'd miss her final exams, she left a message for Lin Yuemei before leaving, asking her to help her get some time off. Lin Yuemei agreed, but after Su Nian left, she immediately turned against her, accusing her of skipping school and not taking the exam without a valid reason. Su Nian was then forced to drop out of school.

After returning home, she fell into a marriage fraud trap, which ruined her life.

So, today is a crucial day in her life. Whether she can avoid traps and successfully start a new life depends entirely on today!

Su Nian looked up at the mirror. She had a pair of watery almond eyes, fair skin, and black hair tied into a ponytail that swayed around her slender waist.

Su Nian bit her lip and made up her mind that she would never do what the Su family wanted in this life. Her last life was miserable, and she finally saw through the true faces of her parents and elder brother.
