Reborn: Changing Fate
Born Again with Retaliation

"… What is Lady Gu? He caused the death of his son, yet he still had the courage to attend his funeral! Is he shameless?"

"Yes, there he is. She goes to fulfill her promise to meet her lover and locks the young master in the car. Poor young master Gu, completely suffocated in the sixty degree heat in the car!"

"Is she her real mother? She must be her stepmother! Gu must bring her to justice for murder!"

Ye Tianxin's eyes were like an empty pond.  All he could see was a black-and-white photo in the middle of the white chrysanthemum.

It was his son, Gu Yunjin.

A few days ago, she and her son were discussing their vacation destination.

However, today, his precious son was a cold, lifeless corpse lying in the middle of a white flower bed.

Gu Yancheng, his expression cold and emotionless, walked up to Ye Tianxin and stood in front of him.

Looking like a ferocious beast, he grabbed onto Ye Tianxin's slender wrist and, suppressing his anger, demanded in a low voice, "Ye Tianxin, have you not sufficiently humiliated us in public?"

"Yancheng, it's not me!" Ye Tianxin's eyes were completely dry, there were no tears in sight, as she mechanically replied, "The woman in the photo is not me!"

Gu Yancheng laughed coldly. His thin lips conical into a straight line, and his eyes burned with anger.

Everyone around the world knows about his cheating wife, which has made her the cheating wife of the century.

Everyone around the world knew that his wife, who was on her way to a date with her lover, had left her son suffocated to death in sixty degrees heat in the car!

And here she is, the woman who is shameless and even has the courage to show her face at Jin's funeral!!

"Ye Tianxin, do you think I'm blind?" She asked.

Ye Tianxin's slender and delicate fingers trembled as she grabbed onto the back of her back, put away her hair, and pulled the zipper on the back of her dress.

There, in front of all the family members and friends who had come to attend the funeral, she pulled her elegant little black dress over her shoulder, revealing a butterfly tattoo on her chest.

Gu Yancheng's ice-cold eyes shone with disdain.

Emotionlessly, he turned around and instructed the bodyguard, "Excuse him out of here!"

It's disgusting!

Completely rebellious!

To think that he had spent six years of his life living with such a loathsome woman.

"Mrs, please!" The bodyguard walked over to Ye Tianxin, who was currently wearing nothing but his black lace underwear, and stood in front of him.

Ye Tianxin looked at Gu Yancheng in disappointment. He doesn't trust her.

He thought Gu Yancheng, who had been married to him for six years, would definitely give him a chance to explain….

Oh, he's so naive!!

"Yancheng, look. Your name is tattooed on my chest!  The woman in the photo doesn't have it!"

Gu Yancheng turned around and looked at Ye Tianxin's left breast.  There is a tattoo of a dancing butterfly with three Han characters, 'Gu Yancheng' on its wings.

"The woman pictured with the man is not me! I didn't know that Jin was in the car! Honestly, I didn't mean to do it. He's my son too! How can I kill my own son!?"

There were many murmurs and whispers among the people who attended the funeral. Their eyes were filled with contempt and like many daggers piercing through his body.

Ye Tianxin did not care at all. He was completely unaffected by the gossip or speculation of others.

All he wanted was for Gu Yancheng to believe him. If only he had believed her….

Gu Yancheng walked over to face Ye Tianxin. He wrapped his big hand around his waist and lowered his head, as if he was going to kiss a butterfly on his chest.

Suddenly, Ye Tianxin felt a sharp pain in his chest.

Grimacing with pain, his brows furrowed, Ye Tianxin realized that Gu Yancheng had ruthlessly bit the butterfly tattoo on his chest. When he lifted his head from Ye Tianxin's chest, blood spilled from the corner of his lips, making his extremely handsome face look even more charming.

Receiving the white handkerchief given to him from the side, Gu Yancheng calmly wiped the blood from his lips. He then repeated his orders, and his cold voice rang out in Ye Tianxin's ears. "Someone came here and kicked this woman out!"

"Yancheng, let me help him.  After all, she is my sister."

Lu Qingxin walked towards Ye Tianxin and, stepping behind her, slowly pulled the zipper of her dress.

Then, like an obedient and attentive younger sister, she held onto Ye Tianxin's hand and said, "Sister, come with me …."

Ye Tianxin did not move in the slightest.  Instead, she stared directly at Jin, who was lying on a bed of pure white flowers, her clear eyes filled with reluctance to leave her.

She desperately wants to see Jin again, to once again see his precious baby.

Standing on his tiptoes, Lu Qingxin leaned over Ye Tianxin's ears and muttered in a low voice, "Sister, don't you want to know how Jin died? If you want to know, be a good girl and come with me!"

Ye Tianxin turned around and looked at Lu Qingxin who with a reassuring smile on her pretty face, said, "That's a good new girl. Come with me!"

Lu Qingxin's gentle and considerate demeanor earned her the praise and appreciation of everyone present at the funeral.

...----------------...

"My dear brother, do you know why your Jin died? It was because I had told him that you would give him a surprise. That's why he slipped into your car and hid in it without you noticing."

"Of course, the woman in the photo isn't you either. She's just a model I paid a lot of money to do cosmetic surgery to look like you. Regardless of how much I hate you for taking my Yancheng from me, you are still the daughter of the Lu family. How could I possibly embarrass the Lu family?"

"Here, I have a video of your Jin suffocating. Do you want to see that?"

“Sister, after hearing everything I told you, don't you hate me to the core? But then, did you know that ever since I learned of your existence, I have always cursed and wished for your death!? Did you know that I tried many times to kill you, but fate decided to forgive you at all times? But this time, you can't hide. As of now, Ye Tianxin, you have lost everything…. Ck, ck, ck, you pathetic thing! No..., absolutely no one believes you!"

Ye Tianxin looked at him, her eyes wide open, as Lu Qingxin's voice buzzed in her ears.

Even though he heard every word Lu Qingxin said, Ye Tianxin still found it hard to understand what she was saying to him.

Lu Qingxin glanced past him at a car that was speeding towards them at high speed. Taking a quick look at his watch, he realized that the time was right!

"Sister, don't you want to see Jin's video?!"

Lu Qingxin took out her phone and opened the video. On the display screen, Gu Yunjin was seen banging on the car window loudly, her face filled with despair.

He screamed for help with everything he had. His pitch-black hair stuck to his forehead with sweat, and sweat droplets kept flowing down his face.

Gradually, overwhelmed by the sauna-like condition in the car, she closed her eyes, but not before she made a last-ditch effort to call Mama, Mama….

Ye Tianxin's eyes reddened in anger as she looked at Lu Qingxin with hatred. When Ye Tianxin had first arrived at the Lu family, Lu Qingxin had welcomed and cared for him well and warmly. This had led her to mistakenly believe that Lu Qingxin sincerely accepted her as an elder sister.

That was at the time. But now, Ye Tianxin realized how much Lu Qingxin hated him.

Lu Qingxin hated Ye Tianxin so much that she strangled Jin to death.

Lu Qingxin hated him so much that he revealed the cruel nature within him by keeping a video of Jin's last moments fighting for his life.

"Lu Qingxin, I will kill you."

At that moment, Ye Tianxin's head was filled with thoughts of killing him. He wanted to kill Lu Qingxin.

He wanted to kill Lu Qingxin to avenge poor Jin….

Although he knew very well that Ye Tianxin was dangerous, Lu Qingxin did not make a move. Instead, he stood still and did not resist as Ye Tianxin grabbed his neck with his hands and tried to strangle him.

Seeing Ye Tianxin's face twisted in pain and anger, Lu Qingxin pondered how ugly she was!

How could my Yancheng fall in love with an unattractive woman?

"Sister, killing me won't bring Jin back…."

Hearing Lu Qingxin's words, Ye Tianxin only increased the pressure on Lu Qingxin's neck.

From the corner of his eyes, Lu Qingxin saw a vehicle speeding towards them. Soon, soon!!

Gu Yancheng ran over quickly, taking big strides, towards the frenetic Ye Tianxin. He pulled Ye Tianxin's hand and threw it backwards.

There was a loud 'explosion' as Ye Tianxin's weak body crashed into the truck that was speeding towards them.

He opened his eyes and looked at the blue sky above him. The next moment, dark clouds gathered, and rain began to fall heavily….

Under the pea-sized splash of rain water that was constantly on her face, she felt no pain at all.

Slowly, he turned his head only to see Lu Qingxin curled up gently on Gu Yancheng's arm, saying, "Yancheng, hurry. Call 120 for emergency services. Brother, sister …."

Pushing Gu Yancheng aside, Lu Qingxin knelt down and crawled to Ye Tianxin's side.

"Sister, don't be afraid. The ambulance is coming!"

"Sir, nothing untoward has happened to you!"

"Sister..don't leave me!"

Ye Tianxin tiredly closed her eyes. He did not want to witness Lu Qingxin's outstanding acting, even for a moment. Lu Qingxin was so good at acting that she had deceived Ye Tianxin for so many years.

Like the scene in the movie, his entire life flashed before his eyes—the gentle and loving warmth of Lu Qingxin, as well as the care and concern of Gu Yancheng.

Just a moment before his death, Ye Tianxin realized that his marriage to Gu Yancheng was a one-sided and wishful union on his part.

He only felt so sorry that his poor Jin was the lamb that was sacrificed for the love triangle between the three of them.

'Jin, don't be afraid.  Mama came to you.'

Then again, he still felt too sad.

If heaven could give him a second chance to live his life again, he would definitely choose a different path….

He did not want his life to be entangled with both—Lu Qingxin and Gu Yancheng—again.

If he could be reborn, he would definitely want them to pay. Eyes for eyes.

If he could be reborn, he would make sure that the human trash would spend their days in a living hell.

...----------------...

“Jin...”.

“Jin...”.

Awakening from his nightmare, Ye Tianxin did not even have a chance to speak before his forehead was attacked by the teacher with a small piece of chalk.

"Ye Tianxin."

"Yes?"

"Sleeping in class and even talking in your sleep. Stand behind the class."

Ye Tianxin wondered. Is this a dream?

He must be dreaming….

Just before his death, he had thought about how great it was to get a second chance at life.

If he could start all over again, he would make sure that he was accepted into the Capital University. He would definitely argue directly with Lu Qingxin, one on one.

Heaven must have heard his prayer and actually gave him another chance to start all over again.

In this life, he would definitely not be a delinquent disciple that everyone ridiculed and insulted….

Leaning against the wall, Ye Tianxin's sharp eyes looked at the math teacher seriously, who was writing and drawing on the blackboard.

Ye Tianxin in the past had no academic knowledge or skills. Now, as he looked once more at this mathematical exercise, he felt like he was looking at a star.

Moving his gaze from the classroom to the Chinese umbrella tree outside the window, he noticed that the tree was flourishing with dense foliage and was emitting life-giving energy, just like in the past….

Ye Tianxin stuck her nails into her thighs and exclaimed as a sharp pain ran through her. "Oh, that hurts…."

That's sore.

So it can only mean one thing—that I'm not dreaming!

I ... Am I really reborn?

On the corner of the blackboard, the words "100 days" were clearly written as a countdown to the college entrance exam.
