Chapter 2: A Pair of Scumbags!
Translator: Lonelytree
Xiao Lingyu held her phone and looked at the screen in disbelief. The time and date!
Yesterday was Xiao Tong’s burial, September 11th, 2018. However, the time displayed on the screen was July 9th, 2012!
‘July 9th, 2012?’
Could it be that her phone broke?
Xiao Lingyu immediately logged into her phone, and then she realized something else was also not correct.
This was not her phone… at least not anymore!
This phone was the one she bought when she first joined the workforce. She did not have much money, so she bought a cheap secondhand phone to answer calls.
Even after she had enough money, she kept using the phone because she was nostalgic and the phone never broke.
However, three years ago, she had to retire the phone because it dropped, and she switched it out for a smartphone.
Holding the old phone, it felt like she had traveled back in time.
Xiao Lingyu slapped her face a few times to wake herself up from her dream.
The pain was real, and the phone was real. This made Xiao Lingyu feel even more dazed.
She had no idea what was going on.
A moment ago, she was still crying over her child’s burial. The next moment, she was in a luxurious room.
Xiao Lingyu looked at the room again in a panic.
The room was huge and stylish. It looked very high-class.
There was a large and soft bed. The beautiful blinds were embroidered with a thin layer of window gauze. The golden table and chairs were shiny. The layout was bold and grand. It was luxurious and comfortable.
She was very familiar with this room. She had been here before, but she couldn’t remember when.
“Ring, Ring…” Suddenly, the Nokia phone rang.
Xiao Lingyu took a look. The caller Id was the Old Nun. Xiao Lingyu became even more confused. Five years ago, she had deleted this contact due to an incident.
But now…
With confusion, Xiao Lingyu answered the call.
“Xiao Lingyu, where the hell are you? It’s already nine o’clock, why aren’t you at work? Prepare all the files for this morning’s meeting!” An aggressive female voice came from the phone, “Or don’t you want the bonus for next month anymore?”
Then the woman hung up without waiting for Xiao Lingyu’s reply.
When Xiao Lingyu put down the phone, her expression was still confused. She looked around blankly.
She spotted a calendar on the table. Ignoring the soreness around her body, she dragged herself towards the table. She grabbed the calendar with both hands. Her pupils constricted.
The calendar said it was 2012.
2012!
Xiao Lingyu mulled over this discovery. The time on the phone and the calendar before her showed her an irrefutable truth. She was in 2012, five years before Xiao Tong’s death.
Then something else hit her. “Wait, if this is 2012, then Xiao Tong is not even born yet!”
Xiao Lingyu took out her phone again, and the date hadn’t changed. It was still July 9th, 2012. She suddenly thought of something, and her breathing stopped. Her eyes were filled with excitement.
“Could it be?” Xiao Lingyu found it unbelievable. “I have traveled back in time?”
Her hands moved to her belly. “If that is the case, this time, I will protect Xiao Tong no matter what so that he can grow up healthily!
“Xiao Tong, this time, mommy will not give up on you. I will make sure that you can grow up safely and with love!”
Ring, ring…
The Nokia phone rang again. The Caller Id this time was Chen Ran. Xiao Lingyu’s lips curled to reveal a sarcastic smile.
She denied the call and placed the phone on the bed. Since she had been given a chance to restart, then she wouldn’t make the same mistakes she did.
Xiao Lingyu endured the pain from her entire body. She looked around and found her clothes by the bedside. She quickly put on her clothes and left as soon as possible before the room owner returned!
…
On the other end, in an office of the Huiqing Group, a handsome man’s face filled with malice when his call was cut off.
Beside him, there was a tall woman with heavy makeup. Her brows were long and thin. She had a sharp and unkind look. She raised her eyebrows and sneered, “Why? That slut didn’t pick up your call?”
Her pair of eyes stared at the manicure she had just done, but there was a flash of smugness and calculativeness in her eyes. She mocked, “Didn’t that slut love you to death? She just had sex with another man. She is probably too ashamed to answer your call.”
Chen Ran frowned and looked at Zhao Wenman hesitantly. He asked, “Man ‘Er, do we really have to be so ruthless?”
She observed the expression on the man’s face, clenched her fists, and then let go. She immediately sneered and said, “Why? Do you feel sorry for her?”
As soon as she said this, her expression suddenly turned cold. She said sharply, “Since you love her that much, then fine. I’ll go and tell my father that our engagement is canceled. I’ll find myself another husband. As the daughter of the Huiqing Group’s chairman, many young men are throwing themselves at me. Chen Ran, I don’t have to marry you!
“You’re a country bumpkin. It’s your honor that I’ve taken a fancy to you. You should thank heavens that I’d marry you and save you from thirty years of hard work. My father doesn’t agree to the engagement. When I tell him our engagement has been called off, he’ll be so happy. Since you’ve chosen the slut over me, I’ll wish you two a happy ending.”
When Chen Ran heard this, his face turned red. He was angry, but he took a deep breath. In the end, he put on a smile and said in a servile manner, “Man Man, what are you talking about? I don’t feel anything for her. The one I love is you. Why should I feel sorry for her?” Then he added, “It’s just that we’re from the same hometown, so I pity her.”
Zhao Wenman sneered, “Pity her? If we didn’t set this up and find an excuse for you to dump her, when we get engaged, everyone would say that you have abandoned Xiao Lingyu to climb up the corporate ladder. At that time, who will feel pity for you? Our engagement will be heavily criticized. Chen Ran, you might be able to suffer the criticism for the slut, but I will never stand for it.
“So you only have two choices. Either you destroy her, or we cancel our engagement!”
Chen Ran’s expression was stiff for a moment before he smiled. “Man Man, the choice cannot be clearer!” It was evident which choice the man picked!
Zhao Wenman smiled and said, “Good boy, Chen Ran, I am not wrong for picking you. You are bold and cold-hearted. Plus, you know who is good to you!”
Chen Ran stepped forward and hugged her. He rested his chin on her shoulder and said with a smile, “You have to be cold-hearted to unimportant baggage, or they’ll only drag you down! Man Man, thank you for showing me that.”
Ring, Ring….
