Chapter 1 Rebirth
"Old Third, you are really capable. You actually brought back such a beautiful woman?"
"I didn't get this back, it was a benefit that came to my doorstep."
"Can we hold such a beautiful woman? Will there be any trouble?"
"What are you afraid of? The one who tricked her out is her sister. Besides, as long as we take possession of her body first and bring her back to the village, can she still run away?"
"Hey, you guys wait outside first. I'll let you guys wait until I'm done..."
When Gu Qingshi woke up, she heard obscene laughter coming from the door, and she found herself tied to the bed in a spread-eagle position.
She was dazed at first, but when she saw her surroundings clearly, tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
She is back.
In her previous life, she was deceived by Duan Lingling, kidnapped in the alley and taken to the outskirts of the city. When she woke up, she saw these three men.
She was tortured by them and then taken to a poor village.
The next ten years of her life were like a nightmare. She escaped and died, but they were unwilling to let her go.
She was tied up in the cellar with iron chains, living a life worse than a dog. She even thought she had turned into a madman. She endured for ten years before finding an opportunity, and she burned everyone to death in a fire.
Her life was ruined by Duan Lingling, and she did this just to snatch her marriage away and impersonate her to get married.
Hearing the door open, Gu Qingshi suppressed his hatred, closed his eyes and pretended not to wake up.
The third brother put down the kerosene lamp, stood beside the bed and looked at Gu Qingshi lying on the bed, lifted her thick bangs, and then looked at her hands.
"That woman didn't lie to me. She is indeed prettier than her, and more capable than her in looking at hands. She is indeed more suitable for us brothers than her."
He was satisfied and couldn't wait to take action.
Gu Qingshi held back and did not move, she knew she only had one chance.
She endured the disgusting feeling of the man lying on her, felt him reaching out to tear off her clothes, and knew that he was touching her chest. Only then did Gu Qingshi suddenly stand up, raised his head and slammed the man's temple.
The man fell on the bed without a word.
The eldest and the second oldest listened at the door with bated breath. They only heard some noises, but not the ones they wanted to hear.
"Why is there no sound?"
"Can the third brother do it?"
The second brother listened at the door for a while and couldn't help muttering in his heart. When they went to other houses to eavesdrop in the past, there was always some noise.
The elder who was already in his thirties grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth. "He's not awake yet, so he didn't hum. Don't worry, the night is long."
After a while, there was finally movement in the house, and then the door opened.
The eldest brother's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to push the second brother away and rushed in. The second brother immediately cursed and could only continue to wait.
After a while, the door opened again.
The old man, who couldn't hold back any longer, rushed in while taking off his clothes.
"Damn it, it's finally my turn."
The oil lamp inside went out for some reason, and the second brother could only grope his way towards the bed in the dark. But after just two steps, he felt something strange. Where were the eldest and the third brother?
He was about to ask a question, but before he could, he suddenly felt a gust of wind.
The second brother was hit hard on the back of his head and fell to the ground. Before he passed out, he saw the eldest and third brothers lying on the ground in the moonlight, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.
Gu Qingshi fell to the ground panting, looking at the three men lying on the ground tremblingly. She couldn't help but let her tears fall. Then she looked at the three men who had tortured her for ten years with resentment.
She quickly got up from the ground, stripped the three men of their clothes, tied them up and gagged them. After doing all this, she grabbed a stick and hit the three men.
…
When Gu Qingshi came out of the room, the three people inside had blood in their mouths and looked unrecognizable. She threw away the stick to wipe off her blood, then she identified the direction and ran towards the county town.
This is the day after she disappeared.
At this time, her biological mother Bai Zhen had already taken Duan Lingling to the Qin family, carrying the Gu family heirloom jade bracelet that she had stolen from her.
Her good mother did not rush to look for her when she didn't know whether she was alive or dead, but took Duan Lingling to recognize her relatives first. What this stepmother did was very touching.
When she fell into hell, Duan Lingling dressed up decently and pretended to be Gu Qingshi and started her new life.
If she could do it all over again, she would stop it all.
When Gu Qingshi returned to the county town, she stole a piece of clothes from the roadside and changed into them. After wiping the blood off her face and tidying herself up, she returned to the home that had once made her uncomfortable and knocked on the door with a sullen face.
“Here I come.”
Along with the sound of footsteps, Gu Qingshi’s biological mother, Bai Zhen, appeared in front of him with a face that was so familiar to her.
"Qing Shi!"
When Bai Zhen saw Gu Qing outside the door, she screamed in shock and tears rolled down her face.
"Where have you been? I was so worried."
When Bai Zhen hugged Gu Qing, she burst into tears and was extremely excited.
"Worried? If you were really worried about me, would you let her come in and replace Duan Lingling, and let Duan Lingling pretend to replace me and completely erase all traces of me?" Gu Qingshi's eyes were full of sarcasm. He pushed her away and pointed at the girl in the room who was looking at her anxiously.
That is Duan Lingling's stand-in.
Bai Zhen looked at the girl in the room, and then listened to Gu Qingshi's sarcastic words, and her crying stopped completely.
It took him a while to find his voice again, "Qingshi, listen to my explanation."
Her voice was trembling and tears were still on her face, which made people feel distressed.
Bai Zhen is forty years old, but looks like she is thirty. She has very fair skin, delicate and beautiful facial features, and a gentle temperament. She makes me feel pity for her. She is a dodder flower and can only rely on men.
After Gu Qingshi's biological father died, she remarried to her stepfather Duan Gang within three months.
Duan Gang's original wife died, leaving behind two children, Duan Renjie and Duan Lingling. After Bai Zhen married into the Duan family with Gu Qingshi, in order to gain a foothold in the Duan family and make the two children accept her as their stepmother, she became especially gentle and kind to the Duan brothers and sisters.
After so many years of hard work, she gained a reputation as a good stepmother.
But the price of this fame is that Gu Qingshi was like being raised by a stepmother.
Gu Qingshi sneered: "What do you want to explain? Explain that you easily gave up your biological daughter to help your stepdaughter, and you couldn't wait to get rid of the traces of your biological daughter and find a replacement?"
When Bai Zhen saw Gu Qing’s cold expression for the first time, she felt panicked for a moment, as if she had lost her only daughter.
No, no, she couldn't lose.
Bai Zhen held onto Gu Qingshi and explained hastily, "No, Qingshi, don't misunderstand me. Mom has not given up on you. You are my only daughter. How could I give up on you? I am going to look for you."
She pointed at the panicked girl, "She's just staying here temporarily."
The guilt was visible on her face.
Gu Qingshi sneered, "What a temporary thing."
From yesterday to today, in just two days, even a substitute was found. Duan Lingling had been planning this for a long time, and she didn't believe that Bai Zhen couldn't see through it.
But even now she is still concealing and speaking for Duan Lingling.
