Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

All the students in the school were extremely excited. Some of the students with poor results immediately regarded Qin Zhen as their role model, hoping that they would be able to make a comeback like her.

The students of Class 28 also went back to class. The Qin father and son planned to bring Qin Zhen home to celebrate. Their baby had shocked the world with a single feat. Of course, they had to celebrate! Moreover, with Qin Zhen’s results, it would not be a problem for her to get into any university. Now, it did not matter if she just waited around and do nothing.

Qin Zhen asked Qin Jin and Qin Youting to wait for her at the school gate because she left her things in the classroom. When she walked to the corner of the teaching building, she was met with a familiar girl’s red and swollen eyes, glaring straight at her. “You’re not Qin Zhen. Who are you?”

Qin Zhen looked at Qin Si with a smile and laughed out loud. “Oh, you found out? I’m not the Qin Zhen of the past. Now, I’m Qin Zhen, who has been reborn! The idiot you fooled in the past is already dead!”

As she spoke, she slowly went upstairs and finally stood in front of Qin Si. There was no smile or warmth in her eyes. “Speaking of which, I really have to thank you. It was you who gave me a chance to be reborn.”

At this moment, Qin Si saw intense hatred and even killing intent in her eyes. An inexplicable sense of panic and fear rose in her heart. “What nonsense are you talking about?” She shouted at her cousin.

“Qin Si, don’t think we have settled our scores yet, but I have a lot of things to do at the moment. You know better than me what you’ve done. Before I come looking for you, don’t come looking for me. Otherwise, you left me no choice but to send you to the afterlife sooner than what you would have liked…” With that, Qin Zhen turned to leave.

Qin Si looked at Qin Zhen’s departing figure, and a trace of jealousy and madness appeared in her eyes. Somehow, the first thing that entered her mind was that only one of them could live! She reached out her arms, planning to push Qin Zhen!

Qin Zhen deserved to die. She stole all of Uncle’s attention! Uncle was disappointed in Qin Zhen before, but now the disappointment has shifted to her! It was Qin Zhen who snatched the honor that should have belonged to her! She should be in first place! Qin Si wanted to kill her. Qin Zhen must die!

However, just as she was about to touch the other girl, Qin Zhen casually stepped aside.

Due to inertia, Qin Si fell straight down the stairs!

“AH!” Qin Si screamed.

Qin Zhen did not even look at her and left without looking back.

…

-Qin Manor-

Qin Zhen, her father, and her brother finished their celebratory meal. After she finished bathing comfortably, she couldn’t wait to take out her phone and call He Guinian.

The call went through very quickly. It seemed that every time she called him, he would not let her wait too long.

“Zhenzhen,” He Guinian’s magnetic voice reached her ears.

“Brother Guinian!” Qin Zhen shouted happily with a smile in her voice, “I finished my exams and the results are out today. And guess what?”

He Guinian held his phone and smiled, “What?”

“I got 746, I ranked first in the entire grade!” Qin Zhen excitedly shared her joy with He Guinian. Although she did predict her score and was not very surprised by the result, she wanted to share her happiness with He Guinian.

“My Zhenzhen is really amazing.” He Guinian wasn’t surprised at all, as if it was normal for Qin Zhen to get close to full marks.

Qin Zhen couldn’t help but giggle. Being trusted wholeheartedly was a very nice feeling to have! He Guinian was the same as her father and brother. They trusted her unconditionally and she was so lucky to have them by her side.

He Guinian waited for her laughter to die down before he slowly said, “Zhenzhen, the doctor said that the surgery was successful.”

“Huh?” Qin Zhen sat up abruptly. “How are you feeling now? Why didn’t you tell me about it sooner?”

“I’m fine,” He Guinian said with a smile. “I was just afraid that you would be annoyed by the news, so I didn’t tell you.” He had always wanted to call her. He was afraid that she would hate him like before and not pick up his calls.

Qin Zhen suddenly felt a lump in her throat. He Guinian was so humble that she felt she didn’t deserve to look this man in the eye if they were ever to meet again.

“If you want to call me, you can call me anytime. If you want to send me a text, you can send it anytime! I’ll reply to you the moment I see it, okay? So you have to tell me everything.”

After Qin Zhen’s declaration, He Guinian didn’t speak for a long time. Qin Zhen thought that the line had been cut off, so she called out again, “Brother Guinian?”

“Zhenzhen…” He Guinian spoke again, “I feel like I’m dreaming,” A very deep sleep that he didn’t wish to ever wake up from.

“Maybe we all are dreaming,” Qin Zhen replied with a soft smile. And maybe, in reality, she and He Guinian were burned to ashes. Maybe this was all a fantasy she made up before she truly died.
