Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Am I Sick?

Translator: 549690339

“Ah!”

In the early morning, accompanied by a scream, Xiao Qian woke up from her dream.

She unhurriedly opened her wardrobe, and while listening to Chu Xue’s loud crying downstairs, she began to choose clothes.

This wardrobe was pitifully empty.

There were only a few plain clothes with simple designs.

She casually picked a white dress, neatly pulled her hair up, and then remembered she was no longer a capable doctor. She let her hair down and combed it into a ponytail.

Without dark circles under her eyes, she looked energetic and radiant even without makeup.

After tidying up, she opened the window, which faced the backyard of her house.

Chu Xue and Chen Lin were standing face to face, with Chu Xue crying loudly.

“Woo woo woo, brother-in-law, do I have a terminal disease?”

“What’s the matter?” Chen Lin’s tone was also unpleasant.

His daughter-in-law didn’t come home all night. He lost quite a bit playing mahjong until late, and after returning, he was troubled by Chu Xue. Before he could figure out what was going on, she started crying loudly, making him feel annoyed and confused.

“Today… my urine is red!”

Xiao Qian leaned on the window, silently watching the scene, and pushed up her glasses.

Oh, Chu Xue does have good luck. Such a low-probability event happened to her; it’s even more satisfying than having diarrhea.

“How could this happen?” Chen Lin was already impatient.

“Could it be that my kidneys are sick… brother-in-law, would you accompany me to the hospital for a check-up?”

“No time for that. I still need to go pick up Xiufang.” Who knows what gossip that woman might be spreading about him at her mother’s house.

Ah, the love between husband and wife. Xiao Qian covered her teeth, feeling a little sour.

Not sure which neighbor it was, but they turned on their TV really loud in the morning, and the opening theme of the hit TV series “Young Bao Qingtian” resounded loudly. It was quite fitting.

“Above my head is a clear sky, in my heart is a conviction. I am not ignorant, I simply don’t fear challenges. Seeking clarity in everything is my nature.”

Fearing people might see, Chu Xue and Chen Lin separated, while Xiao Qian quietly hummed along.

“As long as the truth is revealed, I have nothing to be ashamed of.”

Chen Lin went to pick up Jia Xiufang, and Xiao Qian sneaked into their bedroom again, rummaging out the family’s camera before going downstairs.

Seeing Xiao Qian coming downstairs, Chu Xue put down her mirror.

“Qian’er, you’re awake.”

“Hmm, your mourning voice is so loud; it’s hard not to wake up.”

A cold look appeared in Chu Xue’s eyes. This damned girl.

“Now that you’re about to get married, things are really different. It’s a pity that once you marry away, you’re like water thrown away. Qian’er, you can act this way at home and snap at me, but at your mother-in-law’s place, tsk tsk.”

The facade of pretense was torn off, and her words became barbed.

Xiao Qian ignored her provocation, walked directly to the counter, and pulled Chu Xue aside. She opened the drawer and grabbed a handful of change.

“Hey! What are you doing? I’ll tell your dad if you do this!” Chu Xue tried to snatch the money, but Xiao Qian kicked it into her pocket and glanced at her.

“Haven’t you had enough of your clothes being torn?”

These words brought all of Chu Xue’s painful memories from last night to the surface.

People, as long as they have some trauma in their hearts, can be easily deterred by a little provocation. Xiao Qian’s tearing clothes and burning table yesterday had scared the whole family.

“By the way, I heard that red urine is a sign of a urinary tract infection, which is mild compared to glomerulonephritis, kidney stones, or bladder tumors… Tsk, your stomach seems a bit protruding; is that from a tumor?”

Successfully deceiving Chu Xue and scaring her pale, Xiao Qian walked out of the house nonchalantly.

Well, she estimated that Chu Xue would be mulling over this matter all day. What goes around, comes around.

With money in her pocket, she found a breakfast shop, ordered a bowl of fragrant wonton, and filled herself up so she’d have the energy to settle accounts.

After breakfast, she went to the post office, bringing her university admission notice. The school would hand over the admission notices to the post office after the college entrance exam. The students would then extract their files with the admission notice and mail their files directly to the admitted school through the post office.

All this was not part of her past life.

If she couldn’t retrieve her files, the post office would return the files to the school after the given date. In her previous life, when she repeated a grade, her files had already been transferred back to the school. Ni Jianren’s family had done everything they could to prevent her from retrieving her files, almost forcing her to repeat school and causing the school to reject her.

Fortunately, she had help from the mysterious benefactor. When she wrote a letter saying she wanted to give up, the person asked what had happened. In the end, they replied with four words: “Rest assured and go for the exam.”

And then everything was settled.

Speaking of which, that person was a true noble in her past life.

Although they had met once, Xiao Qian couldn’t remember what he looked like. She was too heartbroken at the time, wanting to jump into the river. The man held her back and listened to her story of what happened. She was too sad and cried constantly, her eyes blurry from tears, forgetting what her rescuer looked like.

But she remembered his handwriting, which was very beautiful, and the name he used for remittance, which she also secretly kept in mind. But when she finally had the ability to repay him, he vanished, and his name didn’t match his person; he had used someone else’s name for the remittance.

If he didn’t want to see her, she couldn’t find him and didn’t know where to start repaying him.

When she needed help the most, he saved her life, gave her money, and helped her confront Ni Jianren’s family. He quietly withdrew when she had become independent, perhaps not wanting her to repay him. He was a good person.

After mailing her files, Xiao Qian stood at the entrance of the post office, thinking.

It would be a few months before she met her kind-hearted benefactor in her past life. She would always remember that day. When the time came, she would go back to the river pretending to jump in again, hoping to bring her rescuer out. In this life, she would take the opportunity to repay the kindness she didn’t have a chance to repay in her past life.

She was a vengeful person, but she couldn’t forget those who had been kind to her. Without that person, there would have been no Boss Xiao from her past life.

After getting all this done, Xiao Qian went to the high school she had attended. She greeted the security guard at the gate, saying that her homeroom teacher had asked for her, and entered the school honorably.

It was summer vacation now, and the campus was empty. The dormitory for teachers was located behind the teaching building.

In the empty campus, a small whirlwind blew across the ground. When they were students, her classmates often joked that the school used to be a graveyard, and then it was transformed into a school. That’s why there were often these mysterious little winds.

Xiao Qian didn’t believe in ghosts, but she was reborn. Now, when she looked at these little winds, she wasn’t afraid at all.

Whether they were ghosts or gods, could they be worse than a person with a rotten heart?

For example, her father who hid her admission notice, and her high school homeroom teacher who cooperated with her father. These people were completely rotten.

Her grudges with her homeroom teacher went beyond just cooperating with her father in saying she had failed. Now, she was going to settle the score.
