Qin Xin rubbed her forehead and sat up. She saw a timid girl leaning against her bedside, crying.
Hmm, just like the standard little maid in every time-travel drama.
Heaven was pretty interesting. It was just like a script.
She instinctively patted the girl's head and said calmly, "Who's Young Master Jue? I'll teach him a lesson for you!"
That cool head-pat move left the girl stunned. Then she cried even harder. "Little Miss, thank goodness the gods watched over you and you didn't die! Doctor! Come give my Little Miss some more blood, boo-hoo!"
Doctor?
A blood transfusion?
Qin Xin's hand suddenly froze in midair.
She realized this wasn't heaven. The hospital room even looked somewhat familiar.
She lowered her eyes to her slender fingers and noticed an unfamiliar flower-shaped ring.
Though there was some distance between them, a fresh, faintly sweet scent still drifted from her fingertips—the distinctive scent of someone who had spent years tending flowers and plants.
These weren't her hands.
Qin Xin's breath caught!
She drew her hand back, but accidentally caught a lock of slightly wavy black hair.
Long, thick, jet-black hair, like seaweed.
She, Qin Xin, was the Qin Family's genius girl, with fair skin and a short, spirited haircut. She was the family's pillar, carrying the burden of the whole family's livelihood and responsibilities like a boy.
Since when had she ever grown such long, soft, flowing hair?
"Who... am I? Where is this?" Even she, usually so composed, couldn't keep her cool now. Her voice trembled as she asked.
"Miss Qingxin, this is your school, the Imperial University Medical School. Young Master Jue told me to accompany you from the countryside back to the city for your final exams. Who knew our car would flip on the way? You fell into Ice Lake and hit your head so badly you nearly died, boo-hoo..."
The Imperial University Medical School?
No wonder it seemed so familiar.
This was her school, where she, Qin Xin, was the top student and the campus belle!
But...
Something was wrong.
"What did you call me?"
"Q-Qingxin, Miss..."
Qin Xin froze. Her blood ran cold!
After a long moment,
"Heh. Heaven hasn't forsaken me. I, Qin Xin, am still alive!"
The body wasn't hers.
But the soul was!
The doctor came in with the medicine and happened to see the scene, and couldn't help but shudder.
The frail little girl was laughing wildly on the hospital bed, her presence as forceful as a rainbow. How did she look anything like the poor thing who'd fallen into Ice Lake and cracked her head open?
She had the aura of a powerful woman!
As she received her blood transfusion, Qin Xin questioned the little maid named Xiangxiang.
Before long, she had a rough grasp of the original owner of the body her soul now inhabited.
Lan Qingxin, an abandoned baby.
Nineteen years ago, a wealthy family had found her in the snow and adopted her.
The original owner was useless—stupid, ugly, and weak.
Especially compared to the wealthy family's genius son, she was utterly pathetic.
He was a young genius, a business elite, and a powerful CEO!
Meanwhile, she was frail and spent all year recuperating in the countryside.
When she was nineteen, her family paid for her to get a place as an auditing student at the Medical School. But as soon as she started school, she fell ill, caused trouble, was ostracized, failed every exam, and took half a year off. In the end, she could only slink back to the countryside to tend flowers and plants.
Now that the final exams were coming up, she had been allowed to return. If she didn't pass, she'd lose her place as an auditing student.
Who knew that just after she entered the school gates, she'd have the bad luck to get into a car accident and crack her head open.
She'd also died in Ice Lake.
Qin Xin's soul had been reborn in Lan Qingxin's body!
Looking at the familiar hospital room at the school, Qin Xin fell into thought.
She was silent, her presence a little chilly. Xiangxiang thought she was unhappy and cautiously tried to cheer her up. "Little Miss, I've found you a tutor. Young Master Jue said that if you can get 60 points, he'll let you keep studying..."
60 points?
Heh. That number wasn't in Qin Xin's dictionary.
"Who's that arrogant idiot of a man?"
"Y-You mean Young Master Jue?" Xiangxiang looked ready to cry.
No one in the world dared to call the young master that.
Little Miss used to be so afraid of him. How dare she talk back to him today?
"Young Master Jue is your older brother, Little Miss. He dotes on you..." Xiangxiang tried her best to soothe her.
"Heh. He dotes on me so much he sent me to the countryside? Dotes on me so much I ended up cracking my head open?"
This so-called older brother wasn't much better.
Qin Xin rolled her eyes.
Men were all foolish things, two-faced through and through. She wouldn't trust any man easily in this life.
"Young Master Jue sent you to the countryside because... because you did that thing to him..." Xiangxiang tried to explain, embarrassed. Her face was red, and she looked like she wanted to say something but couldn't come up with a convincing reason. She dodged the question. "The car accident was an accident too. Young Master Jue didn't know about it..."
"How could there be so many accidents in the world? How does a car just end up in Ice Lake?" Qin Xin curled her lip coldly.
She, Qin Xin, had been sealed in an ice coffin and died—that was a trap set by Qin Wenrou.
So who had set up the trap that sent Lan Qingxin plunging into Ice Lake to die?
"Don't worry. Since I've taken over your body, I'll get justice for you." Qin Xin calmly pulled out the transfusion needle and secretly clenched her fist. "And I'll get justice for myself from the Qin Family, too!"
She didn't want to waste time in the hospital room, so she stepped toward the door.
Xiangxiang was so anxious she nearly cried, and chased after her to stop her. "Little Miss, please don't! Outside, outside is dangerous. It's scary. They, they'll do something to you..."
Qin Xin had already strode out of the school hospital.
What kind of international joke was that? Where couldn't she go?
Who had Qin Xin ever been afraid of?
