Space and Rebirth: The Favored Genius Doctor and Businesswoman - chapter 1 - Reborn to 10 Years Ago (重生十年前)
The sun sprinkled its light through the window . Jing Yunzhao (景云昭) frowned and slowly opened her eyes . Her head ached as she rose, and when she saw her long hair fall from behind her ears, she paused . She was dumbfounded . Was someone fucking with her again?
This long hair of hers, didn’t Qiao Hongye (乔红叶) cut if all off long time ago? Why was it still here?
The air carried a light, pleasant smell . Jing Yunzhao turned her head and saw a bowl of porridge on the table, but what she saw with just this turn of her head made her speechless .
This is where she used to live!
She saw a clean bedroom . She saw her favorite vase on the table . She saw the sticks of rich bamboo sitting in that vase . She saw the blue gaze blanket laid out across her bed . The things in the room weren’t worth much, but they were the things she had during what she believed to be the happiest time of her life .
The panic-stricken Jing Yunzhao grabbed a mirror sitting nearby with her shaking hands . The reflection in the mirror was a familiar yet somewhat different face .
The face was indeed hers, but it was the her from years ago!
No, it can’t be…she has been reborn!
The healthy and youthful skin on her face and the calendar hanging on the wall… . everything was telling her that her thoughts were right! This is 10 years ago! She’s only 15!
She clenched her fists . Everything in her past life seemed like nothing but a nightmare, but it was a nightmare she’ll never forget . It had already been engraved into her heart .
Thinking of what had happened made Jing Yunzhao’s heart tremble . Some time had passed before she finally got out of bed and opened the door . She saw a bunch of familiar faces in the living room . Seeing the faces of her enemies only made her blood boil .
Four people were sitting in the living room: two adults and two kids .
Her mother Ye Qin (叶琴), stepdad Qiao Weimin (乔尉民), and a pair of fraternal twins; Qiao Hongye and Qiao Zizhou (乔子州) .
In her past life, she believed Ye Qin was her biological mother, but she found out later that she was only a baby Ye Qin had found . Her surname, Jing (景), was the Chinese character carved on a piece of jade found on her . Ye Qin had always been good to her, but that was only when Jing Yunzhao wasn’t fighting with Qiao Hongye and Qiao Zizhou .
And regarding her stepdad Qiao Weimin…Jing Yunzhao could only feel disgust and hatred .
In her past life, it was around this time when Ye Qin passed away from her illness, making her even more of an unwanted bastard in that household . Qiao Weimin was a man driven by his lust . After the passing of his wife, he began to touch Jing Yunzhao inappropriately . She was young and scared . She was too afraid to report him and could only do her best to avoid him . She thought that if she entered college, she’d be able to escape from this monster .
But she didn’t think that he had never even thought of letting her continue school . He used his position as her legal guardian and forced her to quit . He made her cook and clean for his family .
For five years, she lived in that house in fear, but she never gave Qiao Weimin what he wanted . (T/N: He wanted sexual intercourse . ) Even so, Qiao Weimin’s thoughts and desires were discovered by Qiao Hongye . She spread rumors of Jing Yunzhao seducing her own stepfather, ruining her reputation . Every time she went outside, people would point and gossip .
The year she turned 20, she met an old classmate . The classmate chased passionately after her (T/N: romantically not literally) and made the matter big enough for the whole town to know .
She understood her position and situation . She had never even planned on accepting him, but Qiao Weimin still didn’t forgive her .
Under rage, Qiao Weimin couldn’t hold it in anymore and finally laid his hands on her . During that night of resistance, Jing Yunzhao accidentally killed him . It was a clear case of self-defense, but Qiao Hongye and Qiao Zizhou turned white into black and black into white . (T/N: It means they altered the truth . ) And Jing Yunzhao was sentenced to jail .
After she was jailed, the person who had been chasing relentlessly after her told Jing Yunzhao that he had never liked her . He only did what he did because he wanted to stimulate Qiao Hongye . The only one he ever liked was Qiao Hongye!
