Chapter 1
At the end of August, Haicheng welcomed its last storm. The sky was covered with dark clouds and it got dark earlier than usual.
The door of the second bedroom was pushed open, and my aunt Wu Yinghua was mopping up the water with a towel while complaining loudly: "It's raining so hard, why don't you go to the rooftop to collect the quilt? You lock yourself in the room all day long, aren't you afraid of mold?"
Qi Ying sat motionless in front of the window, without even changing her posture.
Yu Zhuo, who was half lying on the sofa, said lazily: "She can't hear you, what's the point of yelling at her?"
Wu Yinghua walked over and slapped him on the head: "She's deaf, are you deaf too? All you do is play games. You're going to be a freshman in high school, and you're still playing as much as you did in junior high school?"
Yu Zhuo looked unhappy after being slapped on the face. He stood up and ran back to his room and slammed the door.
Wu Yinghua was furious. She looked back and saw Qi Ying still sitting in front of the window. Her frail figure against the heavy rain outside the window suddenly gave her a feeling of loneliness. Thinking of her niece's experience, the anger in her heart suddenly dissipated.
She walked over and knocked on the table.
Qi Ying then turned around and saw that it was her aunt. Her clear and soft pupils flashed, and she pursed her thin lips slightly, revealing a cautious smile.
Wu Yinghua felt a tingling sensation in his heart when he heard her smile. He sighed silently, took out his cell phone and typed something, then handed it to her.
Qi Ying's eyes fell on the glowing screen: It's raining heavily, your uncle won't be back tonight, go to bed early.
Qi Ying used to be illiterate.
After accepting the memories of this body, the knowledge that was once out of her reach seemed to be learned naturally, giving her a completely new understanding of the world.
But every time I see a mobile phone, I still feel novel. Such a small thing can not only glow, but also have lifelike pictures. It's really amazing.
Qi Ying nodded obediently to her aunt.
Only then did Wu Yinghua close the door and leave.
Qi Ying continued to look out the window. The wind and rain were getting stronger, and the trees on the street were blown all over the place. The vehicles driving in the rain frequently flashed their lights and drove slowly.
It must be very noisy outside, but she couldn't hear a thing.
Just the occasional buzz.
She has been in this world for more than two months.
At first, Qi Ying thought it was just a dream. Clearly, on the day she learned that the general had died on the battlefield, she hung a white silk thread on the beam of the house and followed the general.
She still remembered the suffocation and pain before her death, and even the golden light when the setting sun shone on the albizzia tree in the yard. But when she woke up again, she became a 17-year-old deaf-mute girl and came back to life.
Strange memories swept over her like a tide.
The girl, also named Qi Ying, lost her parents half a year ago and took sleeping pills out of despair. After she was rescued, her heart had changed.
Perhaps it was because of the instinct of this body, whenever she recalled the memories of her parents, her heart felt like being pricked by a needle, forcing her to stop recalling.
Qi Ying thought that the girl must have been living a very sad life.
Because of her memory instinct, this world, which was originally unfamiliar to her, now reveals a sense of familiarity everywhere.
She wasn't surprised at all when she saw it on TV for the first time. It was only when she went to bed that she realized how magical it was.
She is like a person living in this era. The only thing she cannot adapt to is the deafness and loss of voice caused by an accident. This accident was the culprit that led to the death of the original owner's parents.
The original owner's father was a drug enforcement police officer. After cracking a drug trafficking case, he was retaliated by a criminal gang and kidnapped the original owner and her mother. During the rescue process, the frenzied criminals detonated a bomb. Although the criminal gang was all killed, the original owner's parents were seriously injured and died. Only she survived.
After dealing with her parents' funeral, the original owner was taken to Haicheng by her uncle Yu Cheng, but the girl, unable to accept the death of her parents, finally chose to leave.
When Qi Ying just woke up, her uncle and aunt watched over her almost 24 hours a day, fearing that she would do something stupid again. It was not until recently that the psychologist's test showed that her mental state was good, and Qi Ying was taken home by her uncle from the nursing home.
Her uncle was very good to her. Although her aunt had a hot temper, she was a person with a soft heart. Even her rebellious brother Yu Zhuo would knock on the door every hour to check on her.
This was the kind of family love that Qi Ying had never felt before.
She was an orphan in troubled times and grew up in fear amidst the war. When she was fourteen years old, she was kidnapped by mountain bandits and taken to a mountain stronghold while fleeing. She wanted to kill herself to preserve her innocence, but the general came down like a god from heaven and rescued her.
The general, wearing a black armor and sitting upright on a black-maned horse, asked her calmly, "Are you going somewhere?"
She shook her head with tears in her eyes, and the general leaned over, stretched out his hand, put his arm around her waist, and carried her sideways onto the horse. From then on, the general's mansion became her home.
The general had not yet married, and she was the only one in the huge general's mansion. The general took her as his concubine, and although he was away on the battlefield for many years and rarely came back, he instructed everyone in the mansion to treat her well.
She gave her whole heart to that mighty and powerful general. She heard how people all over the world praised and admired the god of war in her heart, but she never expected that the god of war would also die on the battlefield one day.
Did the General ever love her?
Qi Ying didn’t know.
But she loved the General.
Her life was given by the general, and now that the general was dead, she had nothing to worry about in this world. She hoped that she could be buried with him after her death, and it would be her greatest honor to die in the same tomb with him.
She never expected that God would not only not let her die, but also send her to a peaceful and beautiful world without war. Everything here is good, except that there is no general.
…
The storm lasted for several days, and when the weather cleared up completely, there were only two days left before school started.
Some time ago, uncle Yu Cheng had completed the transfer procedures for Qi Ying, and transferred her, who was about to enter her second year of high school this semester, to Haicheng No. 1 Middle School, which was the high school that Yu Zhuo had just been admitted to.
Qi Ying didn't know how to live her life from now on. Facing this new and unfamiliar world, she was hesitant and confused.
But she didn't want to let down this family relationship, so she was willing to listen to her uncle and do things that would make them feel at ease.
Normally speaking, Qi Ying is not suitable to attend a normal high school now.
She can neither hear nor speak, so a school for the deaf and dumb is more suitable for her. But the psychologist suggested that a normal environment is more suitable for Qi Ying's recovery and healing. She needs to be in touch with people and need the friendship of her peers.
Her deafness was caused by trauma from the explosion, and it would heal after a few more treatments. But her aphasia was caused by psychological trauma from the shock, and medical treatment was of little help, so she could only recover slowly through counseling.
After the accident, Qi Ying's father was named a martyr, and Qi Ying became the child of a martyr. With the intervention of the police, Qi Ying's admission procedures were very easy, and the principal also received special instructions from the city bureau leaders, hoping that the children of martyrs can feel respected and friendly here, and bullying and cold violence must never happen.
The principal also knew the seriousness of the matter, and selected the head teacher for Grade 2, and finally chose Grade 2 Class 2. With good grades and a good atmosphere, few troublesome students, and two consecutive years of excellent classes and advanced head teachers, it was definitely the right choice to choose Class 2!
The head teacher Liu Qinghua was called to the principal's office for a long talk for an hour. At the end, he made a fist and promised: Qi Ying will definitely feel the warmth of family here!
On the first day of school, Yu Cheng drove Yu Zhuo and Qi Ying to the school gate.
Yu Cheng has been telling Yu Zhuo over and over for several days that he must protect his sister at school, and even if he doesn't go to the bathroom after class, he must go to Class 2 to see if his sister is being bullied.
The father and son knew that Qi Ying couldn't hear, so they spoke without caring.
Yu Cheng said, "Your sister is pretty, can't talk, and is introverted. Boys like to bully good girls like this. You can't be a coward, otherwise why did they let you learn Taekwondo for several years?"
Yu Zhuo: "So I learned Taekwondo just for fighting? Then the last time I had a fight, I called my parents, and you beat me in front of the teacher?"
Yu Cheng: "Fighting for your sister is fine. But for other things, no."
Yu Zhuo: “???”
When they arrived at the school gate, Yu Cheng opened the car door. Qi Ying was wearing a blue and white school uniform, carrying a schoolbag on her back. Her black hair was tied behind her head. Her cheeks were as big as a palm, her eyes were clear and bright, her lips were slightly curved, and her jaw was pretty. She was as beautiful as a rose bud waiting to bloom.
Yu Cheng took out his phone and typed: If someone bullies you, go find the teacher first, and then ask the teacher to call me. Do you remember my phone number?
Qi Ying nodded.
Yu Cheng called again: Xiao Zhuo is in Class 7 of Grade 1, the classroom at the corner of the first floor. You can find him if you have any problems.
Qi Ying continued to nod.
Yu Cheng was still typing, and Yu Zhuo impatiently grabbed Qi Ying's schoolbag strap and said, "Let's go, we're going to be late. Dad, go back, you're like a hen."
Qi Ying was dragged by Yu Zhuo for a few steps, then turned around and waved obediently to Yu Cheng.
Yu Cheng stood there with a worried look on his face, looking at his niece's pretty face and thinking of his sister. He sighed several times until Qi Ying disappeared, then he finally returned to the car.
As soon as I closed the car door, a sharp roar came from far away, and then the car braked suddenly and stopped in front of the school gate.
The sound of the brakes was so loud that passers-by thought something had happened and looked over. Even the school security guard was alarmed and ran over.
A young man jumped off the black and red mountain bike. He was wearing a black T-shirt, was very tall, and his hair was messy because of the wind. He put his school uniform on his shoulders, chewed gum, and turned his head to whistle at the security guard.
He has an unruly face and a ruffian air.
The security guard seemed to know who he was and did not dare to stop him and went back.
The boy walked into the school gate carrying his school uniform as if nothing had happened.
Yu Cheng frowned.
How could there be such a bad boy in No. 1 Middle School who is obviously not a good person?
A few girls passed by the car, chattering and screaming.
"Both the boss and his motorcycle are so handsome! Oh, I want to touch them."
"Touching people or cars?"
“…I want both.”
"Shut up! If Xue Manqing hears you, he will beat you to death."
"Tsk, Ji Rang doesn't like her. I saw in the anonymous grade group that Xue Manqing threw a grand birthday party for Ji Rang during the summer vacation, but Ji Rang didn't even show up."
"The anonymous group also said that Ji Rang was caught racing with a group of motorcycle racers. He is fine now and even dared to ride his bike to school. This proves that the anonymous group is unreliable!"
"That's not necessarily true. The boss's family is rich. As long as it's not murder or arson, there's nothing that can't be solved."
…
The girls walked away, and Yu Cheng's brows were furrowed so much that he could almost hold a pencil. What the hell was going on? Are kids these days here to study or to date?
Yu Zhuo must pay more attention and don't let Qi Ying be targeted by these bad classmates!
Qi Ying was not worried.
Yingying is such a well-behaved girl, she will definitely stay away from these bad boys!
