Chapter 1: The Crossing

"Please take care."

Looking at the bustling funeral hall, Yun Yi's mind was filled with confusion.

What's going on?

Before she could figure out the situation, a girl in a plaid shirt walked up to her, bent down, and said sarcastically, "Chu Yunyi, no one will protect you now. Your good days are over."

Yun Yi raised her head to see who it was, but suddenly felt dizzy and fell down uncontrollably.

"Quick, someone! Yunyi has fainted."

"What a pity, Old Master Chu was such a good person, how could he just leave like that, leaving Yunyi all alone? What will she do now?"

When she woke up again, she realized she had crossed over once more!

This time, she had become a young girl with a name that sounded like her own, a "love-brain" girl, and she had crossed over to the era when her parents were born, a time when "people were found by shouting, transportation was by walking, and goods had to be bought with coupons."

Suddenly, she thought of something and tried to connect with her space using her mind, but felt nothing. It seemed that this life was truly a rebirth, exchanged for a chance of fate.

Thinking about the original owner, a few days ago she not only gave her job, left by her adoptive mother, to the sister of the person she liked, Sun Xiaoyan, but was also tricked into signing up to go to the countryside as a young worker in a week.

While shopping for supplies, she discovered that Sun Ruiming, who had always said he liked her, was secretly meeting another girl!

And that girl was none other than Su Aiying, who had been strongly persuading her to go to the countryside, Sun Ruiming's distant cousin.

After overhearing their conversation, she learned that the entire Sun family had been plotting against her.

The original owner couldn't accept this reality and didn't have the courage to confront Sun Ruiming, so she returned home in a daze.

But before she could even enter the house, she was told that her grandfather had an accident on his way back to the capital and was being treated in the hospital.

When she arrived, the doctor in charge of the rescue was just coming out: "We've done our best, the injuries are too severe. Let the family members go in for a final goodbye."

The original owner rushed in like a madwoman, seeing the blood-covered Old Master Chu, she shivered all over, her tears blurring her vision: "Grandpa, what happened to you?"

Old Master Chu's eyes were full of reluctance: "Don't cry, take care of yourself in the future."

His voice was very weak, and if the original owner hadn't been close, she wouldn't have heard what he was saying.

Old Master Chu tried to lift his hand to touch his granddaughter's head but failed several times.

Having spent his life as a doctor, he knew his time was short, so he no longer insisted and said, "Under the bed in my room, there's a secret compartment. If anything happens, go to the Hua family."

The original owner knew that this time Grandpa went out to treat the son of a close friend of Old Master Hua.

Hearing Grandpa's instructions, she was terrified: "Grandpa, don't scare me."

Old Master Chu knew that his granddaughter was good except for her confusion over Sun Ruiming, and he struggled to say, "Sun Ruiming is not a good person."

The original owner knew that her relationship with Sun Ruiming was a source of worry for Grandpa, and she nodded repeatedly, promising, "Don't worry, I won't let him lead me around anymore. He's not worth it."

Hearing her granddaughter's words, Old Master Chu's face was filled with relief.

Thinking about the arranged marriage and the dislike of his granddaughter by the eldest daughter-in-law of the Qin family, he didn't want to see his granddaughter suffer and used his last bit of strength to say, "In the future, treat the Qin family as ordinary acquaintances."

The original owner didn't like the youngest son of the Qin family's eldest branch, Qin Jianghui, and readily agreed to Grandpa's request.
