Chapter 01 Return
Xia Zhiqiao opened his eyes slightly, and as his sight slowly focused, the wooden patterned tabletop came into view.
She found that she was lying on the table at this moment, her left arm was a little numb under her head, her brows couldn't help but wrinkled, and her mind went blank for a moment.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door. Along with the thumping sound, there was a rather impatient voice from a young woman, "Xia Zhiqiao, are you there?"
The sudden sound made Xia Zhiqiao come back to her senses immediately. She straightened up subconsciously and tilted her head to look at the door where the sound came from. At this moment, she saw clearly the environment she was in.
Her eyes widened for a moment, and after a few breaths, she suddenly stood up and looked around carefully again.
Mottled and aging walls, a wall full of broken wooden boxes, a window with a piece of glass missing, file cabinets already covered with rust...
Where is this?
Why is it so familiar?
She stood stunned.
Memories long forgotten by the years rush to my face.
So cruel yet so clear.
She seemed to have thought of something, and her whole body was like a bolt from the blue at this moment.
Xia Zhiqiao's legs and feet were weak, and she staggered, almost falling heavily to the ground. Fortunately, she held on to the chair under her in time. At this time, her eyes were moist and her heart was beating wildly.
Xia Zhiqiao clasped her hands together tightly, trying to calm down her surging emotions.
After going through reincarnations, she finally returned to the original world!
This was in 1980. She was working as a temporary worker in a machinery factory in Mo County. Today was the machine factory's rest day. She came to the paper mill in Mo County to visit her fiancé Li Pengcheng.
She has been engaged to Li Pengcheng for a year. If nothing unexpected happens, she and he will get married in the autumn.
Li Pengcheng works in a paper mill in Mo County. The pollution from the paper mill is serious, so he moved from the city to the suburbs in the north of the city in the past few years.
Her fiancé Li Pengcheng is a clerk in the factory office.
Both families are working-class families, so they are a good match.
There are no commuter buses to the paper mill, and workers who work here live in dormitories.
The paper mill is ten miles away from the county seat, and she came here by hitchhiking.
It was ten o'clock in the morning when we arrived.
Li Pengcheng was not at work, saying he was on business with the boss.
It was not easy for her to come here, so she decided to wait for Li Pengcheng to come back.
I waited until this time, which was around four o'clock in the afternoon.
Then the clerk named Qu Lihe, who was knocking on the door and was also Li Pengcheng's cheating partner, took him to Li Pengcheng's dormitory.
Qu Lihe said that she should wait for Li Pengcheng in the dormitory and Li Pengcheng would be back soon.
Li Pengcheng lived in a single dormitory. She knew this, but she didn't know which room it was.
She is grateful...
He also drank half of the tea jar of water she handed him without any precaution.
After all, she was really tired, hungry and thirsty while waiting for Li Pengcheng in the utility room.
After drinking half the tea jar of water, she fell asleep in a daze.
This is how her painful life began.
This dormitory is not Li Pengcheng's dormitory at all, it belongs to another man.
This man was Director Liu of the sales department of the paper mill. He was middle-aged and full of troubles. After she fell asleep, Qu Lihe took off all her clothes and covered her with a quilt.
One can imagine how Director Liu felt when he entered the dormitory and lifted the quilt.
The cruel God still left her a glimmer of hope. Just when Director Liu was about to attack her, she woke up. She was so frightened that she still fought with Director Liu based on her instinct.
Although Director Liu is not a good person, he also senses that something is wrong.
You know, in this day and age, gangsters can be punished by shooting.
He stopped hurriedly.
After that, Qu Lihe took the time to bring a group of people to catch the rapist, including Li Pengcheng who came after hearing the news.
After the door was opened, more than a dozen paper mill workers saw her sitting on the bed in panic, grabbing the quilt, while Director Liu was sitting by the bed with almost all his clothes off...
I will never forget that scene at Summer Solstice Bridge.
I have never forgotten Qu Lihe’s proud smile, and Li Pengcheng’s indifference and ruthlessness as he turned around and left!
later……
She was fired from her job at the machine factory.
There were rumors all over the county that she had no shame in seducing married men.
Director Liu's wife blocked the door of Xia's house and scolded her for three days.
At that time, no one except her family believed her explanation.
Including Li Pengcheng.
In his eyes, Qu Lihe was kind and lively and would not do such a thing.
In the eyes of those workers, Qu Lihe, the daughter of the deputy factory director, was also a proud daughter of heaven. How could she be framed as a temporary worker?
She must be greedy for vanity and want to climb high.
She has two brothers, she and the younger brother are twins, and she has a sister.
They all believe her.
The eldest brother angrily went to the paper mill to seek justice for himself. Unexpectedly, he was arrested for robbery.
He went there and never came back.
My father fell into a trance and drowned in the river. My mother couldn't bear the blow and fell ill.
The younger brother was still in his third year of high school and was about to take the college entrance examination. However, there were sudden changes in his family, so he secretly gave up the exam and went to work at the dock.
This year, she just turned eighteen.
She had never experienced such a scene before, and it was as if the sky was falling and the earth was falling.
She didn't dare to go out or meet people, and she was terrified all day long.
That day, my little sister went to the pier to deliver food to her brother. It was raining heavily and she was hit by a speeding truck...
After that, the family finally completely collapsed.
The memory stopped abruptly.
Xia Zhiqiao's eyes were already filled with tears.
The pain caused by her nails digging into her palms made her exhale slowly.
In the original world, for the first eighteen years, she lived in a warm and happy family although poor. For the next eighteen years, her life was filled with chaos, despair and misfortune.
Until she dies!
She thought death was the end, but she didn't expect to be bound to a system. She reincarnated in various worlds to fulfill the wishes of those who died in vain.
She had accumulated so much reputation, and finally got the chance to return to her previous life.
It was also the turning point of fate.
At this time, the knocking on the door continued, and the voice outside the door turned from suppressed impatience to sharp, "Xia Zhiqiao, are you in there? Why did you lock the door?"
Xia Zhiqiao's heartbeat gradually slowed down, and the extraneous look on his face completely disappeared.
She had already seen the twists and turns of fate, and she was no longer the cowardly and incompetent person she was.
She walked calmly towards the door.
This kind of lock is a concealed lock. If you accidentally open it when closing the door, no one from the outside can open it.
Otherwise, Qu Lihe would not knock on the door.
Xia Zhiqiao opened the door calmly.
Standing outside the door was a girl about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a ponytail and slanted bangs. Her makeup skills were not very skillful, her eyebrows were drawn too thickly, and the edges of her lipstick were not blended well, making her mouth look bigger.
However, she was wearing a fashionable light pink dress. In this era, having such a dress is really beautiful and eye-catching.
This young girl is Qu Lihe.
She is also the daughter of the deputy director of a paper mill.
