Shu Shu, a 24 - year - old woman, died.
She died on the way back after sending her four - year - old son to kindergarten.
She was stabbed to death from behind. She didn't even get a glimpse of the murderer's face.
As her consciousness grew hazy due to excessive blood loss, Shu Shu had a dream.
In the dream, she realized that this world was a romance novel.
She was the white moonlight in the novel who ran away with the male lead's child and died young. Her son and daughter were the cannon - fodder counterparts to the female lead's children.
Her son grew up as a street - smart hooligan, vying with the female lead's top - student son for the girl they both liked, becoming a laughingstock, and ultimately going astray and ending up in prison.
Her daughter, lacking maternal love since childhood, had a dull and unlikable personality. She over - ate and became extremely overweight. When competing with the female lead's beauty - like daughter for the position of the lead violinist in the orchestra, she accidentally injured her hand, became mentally deranged, and was abandoned by the family.
In the end, the female lead replaced the white moonlight and successfully won the male lead's heart. The female lead's outstanding children were also recognized by the male lead's family. The whole family lived a happy and fulfilling life for the rest of their days.
So, was she stabbed for no reason just to fit the "dying young" setting?
Before taking her last breath, Shu Shu thought: This is really messed up.
Perhaps God heard this swear word.
Out of kindness.
Then, Shu Shu was reborn.
But the not - so - good news was that she was reborn when her son was seventeen years old -
"The sneaky bastard! How dare you attack me from behind! Take this kick!"
Shu Shu suddenly kicked backward, hitting only air, and almost fell.
She opened her eyes.
She found herself in a strange place.
It was in front of a school.
The school sign clearly read: Anshi No.3 Middle School.
Just as Shu Shu couldn't figure out how she got here, she was attracted by some noise.
Not far away, a group of people were gathered there.
It seemed to be a confession scene.
Before her mind could react, her legs, out of curiosity, had already carried her over.
"Chu Lian, be my girlfriend!"
A punk - looking teenager with hair dyed red, yellow, and blue, wearing a black short - sleeved shirt with a skull pattern and ripped jeans, held a bouquet of roses in his hands, looking at the girl in front of him with tender eyes.
And the girl being confessed to was just as her name suggested. She had long, straight black hair andShe was slender - bodied, with a pure and endearing appearance.
At the moment, however, she was cowering timidly behind her friend, her eyes red and moist.
It wasn't out of being touched.
Rather, it was due to fear and resistance.
As soon as the punk - looking teenager finished speaking, his little followers started to egg him on: "School beauty Chu! Just say yes to Brother Chen! Otherwise, you won't be able to leave today!"
Chu Lian sobbed softly, looking frightened on her small face, yet still with a hint of stubbornness. She shook her head: "...Shu Lingchen, you, you can't do this."
Shu Shu clenched her fists in anger upon hearing this.
What a bully of a little rascal!
Chu Lian's female friend stood up indignantly and scolded: "Shu Lingchen, that's enough! Xiao Lian is the school beauty and lives in Yujingyuan Community. You're just a bottom - of - the - class hooligan, pestering Xiao Lian shamelessly all day long. You're really a toad lusting after a swan!"
Shu Shu couldn't help but nod in agreement.
This classmate was truly speaking her mind.
Yujingyuan was a luxury residential area with a high housing price.
Before she "died", she had a fully - decorated, six - million - yuan house in Yujingyuan, paid in full.
This Chu Lian, who was being confessed to, must have a pretty good family background. The punk - looking little rascal really didn't match her.
Huh? Wait a minute.
What was this little rascal's name again?
Shu Lingchen?
Why was it the same as her son's name?!
Shu Shu suddenly had a very bad premonition.
She looked up at the punk - looking teenager. Ignoring his hair that resembled a turkey's, she saw his familiar eyebrows and eyes.
Her heart skipped a beat first, and then turned cold.
This little toad - like rascal seemed to be... her son!!!
Shu Shu's fists really tightened this time.
Then her vision started to go dizzy.
She remembered the dream she had - her son was the counterpart to the female lead's top - student son. Because of competing for the girl he liked, he became a laughingstock and had a tragic ending.
Could this Chu Lian be that very girl?
Just as the atmosphere grew tense.
A clean hand pushed through the crowd, and a pleasant male voice with a slight chill rang out: "What are you all doing?"
"Monitor Shi!"
Chu Lian's friend's face lit up with joy, and she quickly cried for help: "Monitor Shi, you're finally here. Shu Lingchen is forcing Xiao Lian to accept his confession!"
A boy with regular facial features, wearing an immaculate white shirt under his school uniformThe boy turned to look at Chu Lian, his thin lips parting slightly as he spoke in a gentle voice: "Are you okay, classmate Chu?"
Chu Lian bit her lip and shook her head, but her eyes were glistening with tears as she looked at the boy, as if she had seen a savior.
Shu Shu's vision went dizzy again.
If she wasn't mistaken, this boy was the female lead's son - Shi Jin.
So, was she now right in the middle of a love triangle showdown?
"Enough!"
Watching the person he liked exchange glances with his "rival in love", Shu Lingchen's eyes were ablaze with anger. He squeezed the wrapping paper of the rose so hard that it creaked. He glared at Shi Jin and said, "Shi, this has nothing to do with you. Get lost, or don't blame me for being rude."
Shi Jin, however, was not intimidated. Standing as straight as a bamboo, he said righteously, "When you're causing trouble for your classmates, it has everything to do with me."
Chu Lian looked at Shi Jin with even more adoring eyes.
Shu Shu loved reading novels and knew exactly what "the counterpart" meant.
At this moment, compared to the refined and noble Shi Jin, her punk - looking son was completely overshadowed, not even a speck of dust left.
He was simply a joke.
Shi Jin, of course, wasn't afraid of Shu Lingchen's threats. Because he was smart enough to have informed the school security team in advance.
In three minutes, Shu Lingchen and his followers would be sent to the juvenile detention center for two days for causing trouble.
Sure enough.
Shu Shu saw Shu Lingchen throw the rose on the ground and dash towards Shi Jin.
However, halfway through his dash, he stopped.
A slender, fair hand grabbed the collar of his neck.
"Who the hell are you?!"
Shu Lingchen turned around furiously.
It was Shu Shu. She turned to Shi Jin and Chu Lian and said, "Classmates, you go first. I'll handle this."
Chu Lian: "?"
Shi Jin: "…?"
Shu Shu urged, "Hurry up. Do you want to stay and get beaten?"
Despite their confusion, Chu Lian, Shi Jin, and the other female friend left first. After walking a short distance, Shi Jin even looked back at Shu Shu several times.
After a while, Shu Shu let go.
"Who are you?!"
Shu Lingchen finally broke free, but the three had already walked far away. It was too late to chase them. He roared like an angry little lion.
Shu Shu thought that she and her son hadn't seen each other for "thirteen years". She tidied her clothes carefully, put on a kind - hearted smile, and then introduced herselfIntroducing herself, she said, "I'm your mother."
The lackeys beside them all showed expressions of shock, as if they were astonished that this beautiful girl could swear so foully as soon as she opened her mouth!
However, the moment Shu Lingchen saw Shu Shu's face clearly, his whole body froze in place.
This woman...
She looked so much like his mother who had passed away thirteen years ago!
It wasn't just a resemblance; it was an exact copy.
But her features were much more youthful than the mother in his memory.
She looked at most eighteen years old.
About the same age as him.
Shu Lingchen was dazed for a moment, then regained his senses and confirmed that Shu Shu was cursing at him.
"Are you courting death?!"
He clenched his fists again and raised his arm to swing.
Shu Shu stood still, not moving an inch, just looking at him.
Shu Lingchen's hand stopped in mid - air.
For some reason, facing this face that was so similar to his mother's, he couldn't bring himself to swing it down.
"Damn it!"
Shu Lingchen put down his hand, simply gave up, stepped on the rose, and waved to his lackeys, "Let's go!"
Shu Shu picked up the flower on the ground and threw it into the nearby trash can, then followed after them.
"Shu Lingchen, I'm your mother."
As she followed, she kept saying, "I'm really your mother."
All the lackeys were stunned.
They were convinced. Brother Chen had been merciful and let her go, but why was she still chasing after them and cursing?
"Crazy!"
Shu Lingchen felt annoyed, not wanting to bother with a lunatic. He walked faster and faster, and finally even started running.
As a result, Shu Shu lost sight of them at the next intersection.
