Second chapter of the novel.
Qin Zhi hasn’t appeared yet, but he is so sweet. ︎⁄⁄꒰* ॢꈍ◡ꈍ ॢ꒱.*˚‧
Lou Yaoyao looked in disbelief at her own unfamiliar yet familiar pair of hands.
To say it's unfamiliar, it's because the back of her left hand previously had a shallow scar, although it had been treated promptly, but because the wound had been too deep, in the end, it left a trace of scar. To say it's familiar, how could be unfamiliar? Regardless the size of the palms, the length of the fingers, or the lines on the palms, they were all exactly the same as her own hands.
Lou Yaoyao was a little confused about the current situation. When she opened her eyes, she found herself inside a ward with a slight disinfectant smell. Normally, she supposed to be dead. As she closed her eyes, she would see the scene of the reinforcing steel bar clashing against her forehead appear before her eyes. That kind of fear and dread, she never wanted to recall.
But, if she had died, then how could she be in this hospital?
Lou Yaoyao touched her own face in scare. Not bad, not bad, it didn't have any scar, there also wasn't any bandage, she wasn't disfigured, however this absolutely didn't make any sense.
The puzzled Lou Yaoyao sat on the bed for a while. The nurse on duty found that she had woke up, immediately called the doctor to come. Lou Yaoyao —didn't understand about the current situation— had to cooperate with the doctor's examination and answered the doctor's questions while at it.
The doctor's eight out of ten sentences didn't get inside her head, after determining that Lou Yaoyao didn't have any unwell after-effect, the doctor gave out the diagnosis: "Miss Lou, congratulation to you, you may do the procedure for discharge today, however you lost consciousness for a day since yesterday, I suggest that you stay in hospital for observation for a couple days."
"Thank you." Lou Yaoyao politely expressed her thanks.
As soon as the doctor and the nurse walked out, Lou Yaoyao immediately rushed into the washroom, she was staying in the private ward with washroom.
Looking at her face in the mirror, Lou Yaoyao was taken aback. As she expected, this was her face, only compared to that —had been poisoned with cosmetic and extremely pale— face of hers, even though this face was fair, but appeared with healthy blush, and the most important was that this face was much more younger than her own, it seemed to be only eighteen or nineteen years old.
Lou Yaoyao's heart was throbbing fiercely, followed by the rise of irresistible joy from the bottom of her heart. Although she didn't like to watch television, but she also knew some hit drama with transmigration themes, there's also 'return to childhood, go back to the past' drama, and also in the webnovel nowadays, rebirth and transmigration were popular everywhere. In that case… her current situation, she also went back to the past?
"Yaoyao." Didn't know how long she had stayed, Lou Yaoyao heard a voice from the room, she quickly repressed her happiness and sadness, and left the bathroom.
After looking at the person inside the ward, Lou Yaoyao convinced that she must have gone back to the past. If not, how could she see Aunty Liu? Both Aunty Liu and Aunty Lu were the family's housekeepers, they usually were responsible for the family's daily life, they had been working for the family for more than ten years, however Aunty Liu had retired to live with her successful 25 years old son. At that time, Lou Yaoyao had also been very reluctant to let her go.
Aunty Liu put down the things that she carried, looked at Lou Yaoyao for a while, saw that her complexion and mental state was very good, only then breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It seems to be nothing. Yaoyao ah, hasn't Aunty tell you? Next time, by all means, don't be so impulsive, if something bad happened, your mama would be very sad ah!"
Listened to Aunty Liu's attentive words, Lou Yaoyao was moved. Since she had been young, she was not close to her papa, and her mama was a workaholic, she used to actually spend more time with both of the aunties. Looking back, since Aunty Liu had followed her son to move to another city, they hadn't met for two years. Although previously she disliked Aunty's concerned words for being troublesome, yet this time, she didn't want to refute. Lou Yaoyao fawned as she smiled: "Aunty, I know, you don't have to teach me."
"It's good for you to know." Aunty Liu also didn't say it again, afterall, their status were different, too far is as bad as not enough. She took out the toiletries from the bag that she brought, waited for Lou Yaoyao to finished washing her face and brushing her tooth, and then handed over a small thermos box to Lou Yaoyao, in it was lotus seed congee that she had cooked. Lou Yaoyao was obediently sipping it.
too far is as bad as not enough (idiom, from the Analects): too much is as bad as too little; excess is just as bad as deficiency; to overreach the mark is just as bad as not reaching it.

Aunty Liu also opened up all the windows to let the air in, and then she picked up the bag and went in the toilet. After a while, she took out a plate of cleanly washed fruits while informing Lou Yaoyao that the company had an important meeting today, therefore her Papa and Mama could only visit her after they had finished.
Lou Yaoyao looked at the busy Aunty Liu, only felt that the congee in her mouth was particularly sweet. As for the matter of her Papa and Mama hadn't visited her, she didn't really care. She already had been used to, hadn't she? After hesitating for quite a while, Lou Yaoyao finally still asked: "Aunty, how could I be in the hospital?"
Looking at the current situation, she really did go back to the past, but she really didn't remember being hospitalized at the age of eighteen or nineteen at all. Listened to what that doctor had said, she lost consciousness for a day since yesterday. This kind of important matter, however in her memory, there wasn't any impression at all. Furthermore, after she had awakened, beside from being hungry, she also didn't feel any unwellness.
Since there was a question, then ask it. In any case, she really was Lou Yaoyao, she didn't have to worry about her identity being exposed and so on.
Aunty Liu also didn't think that something was amiss, said: "Yaoyao don't remember? Yesterday, you were having dispute with Qingqing, fell down from the stairs and lost consciousness."
Qingqing, that's exactly Lou Qingqing, her older sister of the same father but different mothers. Lou Yaoyao hanged down her eyes, her heart felt somewhat complicated. She had come back to the past, in that case, this time, Lou Qingqing naturally hadn't died.
"Oh dear, Yaoyao, are you feeling any unwellness somewhere? Does your head hurt?" Looking at Lou Yaoyao who bowed her head, Aunty Liu anxiously asked.
Lou Yaoyao quickly comforted her, and told her the result of the doctor's examination from a moment ago while at it. Aunty Liu, only then, felt relieved. Yesterday, after Lou Yaoyao had lost her consciousness, full-body examination had immediately been done, there had been no abnormality found. Although the doctor had persuade her that it's okay, but Aunty Liu thought that the doctor was right, it's better to stay in hospital for observation for several days.
As soon as Lou Yaoyao finished drinking the congee, once again talked a few words, Aunty Liu told her to rest more, put the things back in. At home, there were still a pile of things needed to be done, the most important was to make lunch for Lou Yaoyao.
The ward once again returned to stillness, Lou Yaoyao walked to the side of the window and looked outside. This was the city where she grew up, yet now it seemed somewhat unfamiliar. She unconsciously touched her left wrist, to find that her wrist didn't have anything on. That's right, she still hadn't worn that thing, that chain bracelet that got her and Lou Qingqing into dispute.
In her memory, the dispute with Lou Qingqing and then fell from the stairs, this time —as a matter of fact— this matter was related to Chen Hao.
She remembered that soon after, it would be Chen Hao's birthday. She had spent some thought trying to find jewellery as a special gift. After she came back, she immediately put it on the dressing table in her room. In the end, as soon as she finished eating dessert, she went back to her room, but to find that wrapped gift box had disappeared without a trace.
Both Aunty Liu and Aunty Lu had been downstairs watching soap opera, at that time hadn't been on the upper floor. In that case, surely it had been taken by Lou Qingqing who was upstairs. She got extremely angry and quickly went to question Lou Qingqing. Both of them were having dispute on the staircase, some kind of pushing and shoving each other, in the end, both of them fell down the stairs together.
Fortunately, to avoid any injury, the house's staircase had all been covered with thick wool rug, both person had nothing wrong.
However, different than that first time, this time, she actually lost her consciousness. Lou Yaoyao thought that it might be because of her rebirth.
After recalling the past matter, Lou Yaoyao also knew the exact time of now, only several months ago, she just had her twentieth birthday.
Twenty years old, the already twenty seven years old her, had actually gone back to twenty years old.
She didn't know whether she should be happy or sad, being rebirth, before everything had happened, being rebirth, she could no longer see Qin Zhi any more, that Qin Zhi who was willing to take the blame for her…
As the matter of fact, she was also stupid. At that time, she shouldn't have an acrimonious falling-out with Chen Hao at such time, however the accumulation of several months' guilt, she —who had been feeling guilty and lack of rest— had been on the verge of breaking down. She, herself, hadn't known what she was talking about at all. Although she hadn't been stupid enough to grab the steering wheel from Chen Hao, yet she had made Chen Hao distracted from driving the car, to the extent that the car crash had happened.
They said that the woman in love had a decrease in IQ. Lou Yaoyao found that after she was no longer infatuated with Chen Hao, her mind unexpectedly became a lot more brighter.
However, she should be grateful to Chen Hao, If not because of Chen Hao, she also wouldn't go back to her twenty years old.
Only, after many sadness, she had come back, what about Qin Zhi? Would he continue to take the blame for her? She had said, demanded that he wait for her.
She didn't expect that her thought before facing death would actually came true. She had thought then, Qin Zhi might have to wait for her until the next life, and now, look, was this not exactly the next life?
Lou Yaoyao, for a moment, didn't know what should she do… Did she love Qin Zhi? She was also unclear, she had been fighting with Lou Qingqing over Chen Hao for more than ten years. In the end, after looking clearly at how he had conducted himself, her heart just felt disgusted, didn't feel any sadness at all. But on the contrary, looking at how Qin Zhi had been suffering on her behalf, her heart ached that she almost wanted to die. Therefore, she actually did love Qin Zhi, right?
To think carefully, she didn't remember deeply about her emotion at that time toward Chen Hao, but on the contrary, she remembered very clearly about her fight with Lou Qingqing very clear. In the end, did she love Chen Hao, or did she merely want to compete with Lou Qingqing? That was no longer important.
Being rebirth, everything had been reshuffled, all those tragedies still hadn't happened, there's still time to change.
She would not once again wasted all of her youth for Chen Hao —that slag man, also would not once again be incited by Lou Qingqing and accidentally killed Lou Qingqing, and even more would not let Qin Zhi took the blame for her.
Lou Yaoyao also thought about the words that Qin Zhi had said, he said that he loved her…
At that time, although she felt grieved and sad, her heart yet felt slightly happy. However did the current Qin Zhi truly loved her?
If did not love then?
Lou Yaoyao suddenly wanted to make a telephone call to ask about this matter in detail. However, holding a cellphone, she didn't dare to press the button for quite a while, the cellphone had several missed calls and a couple text messages, all were sent out from yesterday and this morning by Qin Zhi. Lou Yaoyao opened the last one: Yaoyao, I will be back tomorrow, what kind of present do you want?
That's right, this time, he was on business trip abroad. In the past, everytime Qin Zhi had gone on business trip, she would have asked for a great pile of gifts. He had never broken his promise. As long as she asked for, he would buy for her.
Qin Zhi treated her very good, had always been very good.
Therefore, she didn't know at all, when he had fell in love with her.
The difference of age between them was five years, both of them had grown up together as childhood sweetheart. For her, Qin Zhi had been no more than like a blood related older brother. These years, he had been taking care of her in every possible way, a lot of more care compared to her parents. Many years of habit let her to never think about their relationship could be more. Occasionally, someone would envily praised her for having this "good older brother". After being pleased with herself, she would soon forget.
Their pattern of getting along had never seemed to change. In that case, was she allowed to believe that at this time, Qin Zhi also had feeling toward her?
Even if there was no feeling, she would also let him fall in love with her! He must take responsibility for the words that he had said! Even if everything still hadn't happened!
Lou Yaoyao stayed happy and sad at the same time for quite a while, until finally made a tyrannical decision. Anyway, wasn't she a very selfish person? She didn't dare to make a telephone call, afraid that she would be found abnormal. After hesitating for quite a while, she sent a text message.
I'll be waiting for you to come back ——Yaoyao.
Lou Yaoyao's heart was throbbing fiercely, followed by the rise of irresistible joy from the bottom of her heart. Although she didn't like to watch television, but she also knew some hit drama with transmigration themes, there's also 'return to childhood, go back to the past' drama, and also in the webnovel nowadays, rebirth and transmigration were popular everywhere. In that case… her current situation, she also went back to the past?
