“Hey, are you going to jump or not? If not, we’ll leave.”
“Pfft. If a coward like Chu Luo dares to jump down from the fifth floor, I’ll write my name backward.”
“It’s better if this kind of person dies. She hides her face all day long and is so eccentric. To think she actually dared to confess to our school hunk in front of everyone. Serves her right that she got rejected.”
…
Feng Ling suddenly opened her eyes, a sharp glint flickering across them.
Who dared to be so impudent in front of her!
Just as she was about to shut out the noise forever, she remembered that she was already dead. She had died at the hands of her own sister.
At the same time, she realized that the environment and the three people beside her were all dressed strangely.
Feng Ling swiftly sized up the surroundings before she noticed that this wasn’t a place she was familiar with at all.
At that moment, she was sitting on the edge of the top of a strange building (the buildings here were all strange to her).
On one side of her was a drop of more than ten meters, and on the other were three girls who were enjoying the show.
A large amount of unfamiliar information rushed into her mind.
Only then did Feng Ling discover that she had actually arrived in an alternate world and had been reborn into this person called Chu Luo.
The original owner of this body was a high school girl who felt inferior, and she was so stupid as to want to commit suicide just because her confession failed.
Chu Luo shifted her body, which was still a little stiff. Her body shook abruptly and she almost fell off the railing.
“Ah…”
The three girls screamed in fright.
“Shut up, it’s so noisy!”
Chu Luo steadied herself and had shouted this. The three girls immediately shut up.
They looked at her blankly, feeling that she was a little different.
Chu Luo suppressed her rapid heartbeat and got down from the fence. Ignoring the three girls who were stunned by her aura, she walked away.
She had just taken two steps when she suddenly remembered that the original Chu Luo’s school bag was still on the ground. She walked over. When the three girls subconsciously retreated, she picked up her school bag and walked towards the staircase with a cold face.
“Hey! Coward, didn’t you want to jump? Why aren’t you jumping anymore?”
This regretful-sounding voice came from behind. Chu Luo stopped in her tracks and walked back to face the three girls.
The three girls surrounded Chu Luo and said fearlessly:
“You and Chu Ting are born from the same mother. Yet Chu Ting is the school belle whereas you are a joke. If I were you, I would have killed myself long ago.”
“Exactly.”
“Heh!” Chu Luo laughed coldly and quickly attacked.
The next second, the three girls’ expressions changed drastically.
“Ah!!!! Chu Luo, what did you do to us? Why can’t I move?”
“Waah… Chu Luo, you must be a monster…”
“Help!”
While the three girls were crying in fear, Chu Luo said coldly as she walked towards the staircase, “I… I’ll let you guys reflect on your actions for the night since I’m in a good mood today. If I hear you badmouthing me again, I’ll cut off your tongues.”
After saying that, she walked towards the corridor and headed downstairs.
It was already after school and the original Chu Luo had secretly come to the rooftop to jump off the building. If those three girls hadn’t seen her and followed her, no one would have noticed her.
Following the original Chu Luo’s memory, she walked towards the school gate.
Everything was unfamiliar to her.
However, since the heavens had allowed her to be reborn, why wouldn’t she want to stay alive and well?
As she walked out of the school gate, Chu Luo stopped in her tracks.
It was already evening and there weren’t many pedestrians or cars on the road outside the school.
Even so, Chu Luo’s eyes were filled with surprise and curiosity when she saw the iron boxes running past her.
There was actually an iron box in this world that was comparable to the Thousand-Mile Horse… A car?
She remembered that the owner of this body would ride this metal box called a car home with her older sister every day.
She looked around, and sure enough, the original Chu Luo’s twin sister didn’t wait for her and had simply asked the driver to drive the car away.
Chu Luo frowned slightly. This had happened more than once in her memory. Whenever the original Chu Luo came out late, she’d had to squeeze into a big iron box called public transport.
At this moment, an eye-catching motorcycle roared as it sped past her.
And quickly backtracked.
The facial features of the boy on the motorcycle had a hint of handsomeness that was just about to mature. His skin had a healthy wheat color. At this moment, he was standing with one leg on the ground with his lips pursed tightly. He didn’t look at Chu Luo but gazed elsewhere arrogantly.
Chu Luo stared coldly at the strange thing and at the person who ignored her.
Just then, a girl with exquisite makeup sitting behind the boy suddenly stuck her head out and looked at her, mocking her smugly.
“Hey! Isn’t this the ugly freak who confessed to Yi in front of so many people this afternoon? Why? You were rejected this afternoon and you’re still not going back. Do you want to confess to Yi again?”
Chu Luo swept an icy glance at the girl in front of her and recognized her as the class belle, Jiang Siyi.
The other person was the cause of Chu Luo’s suicide—the school hunk, Zhang Tianyi.
Jiang Siyi deliberately said to Zhang Tianyi in a coquettish voice, “Yi, this person has the courage to confess to you in front of so many people. Don’t you feel anything?”
Only then did Zhang Tianyi turn his head to look at Chu Luo as if he was doing charity, and then he quickly retracted his gaze, as if looking at her one more time would dirty his eyes.
Then, he said mockingly, “I’m not interested in ugly skinny bamboos.”
Jiang Siyi blushed as she lightly punched Zhang Tianyi’s back with her petite fist. She giggled to herself, and her voice became even more coquettish. “You’re so annoying. Are you trying to praise my figure?”
With an arrogant look, Zhang Tianyi declared, “I like girls who are just like you.”
“Hehe!”
Chu Luo’s gaze subconsciously fell on Jiang Siyi. What appeared in her mind right now was the question of what sorts of medicinal formula could make the two of them lose the courage to meet anyone again.
Then she frowned. She had never used such a low-level method of dealing with someone since she was seven years old.
After Zhang Tianyi and Jiang Siyi finished mocking her, they drove off on his motorcycle.
Chu Luo retracted her gaze and tried her best to get used to the foreign world. She raised her head and saw a large pharmacy diagonally opposite her. She walked over.
The pharmacy was close to the school, and there was a big mirror inside to cater to the girls who liked to look pretty.
Chu Luo walked to the mirror and stood still.
The girl in the mirror had exquisite facial features. She had a small oval face, a pair of large almond eyes, and a delicate, diamond-shaped mouth.
However, her face was a little pale and her body was a little malnourished. Also, her thick fringe covered most of her face.
Chu Luo lifted her fringe and saw an ugly scar about seven to eight centimeters long that resembled a centipede on her forehead.
In her memory, this scar was caused by her sister, Chu Ting, when she was young. At that time, Chu Ting even played the blame game on her. Not only was the original Chu Luo not treated in time, but she was even given a beating.
Chu Luo lowered her fringe and met the gaze of the salesperson who looked like she was staring at a monster.
When the salesperson met her gaze, she asked indifferently, “Student, what medicine do you want to buy? The scar-removal medicine goes for 998 yuan a box, and you can get a 20% discount for a course of treatment.”
Chu Luo ignored the salesperson’s question and pointed at the Chinese medicine cabinet behind the counter. She was going to say that she wanted all the medicine inside.
However, she suddenly remembered that the owner of this body didn’t have much money, so she only mentioned a few herbs.
In her heart, she wondered:
‘Should I go earn some money?’
Just as the thought of earning money came to her, someone approached her.
As Chu Luo walked out of the pharmacy, she received a call from her twin sister, Chu Ting.
Chu Luo stared at this thing called a cell phone for a long time. The word “Sister” was displayed on it. When she saw this, the corners of her lips curled up.
Although she was still not used to this body, her familiarity was more than enough to deal with a few weak players.
Following the memory of the original Chu Luo, she picked up the call and immediately heard Chu Ting’s order, “Chu Luo, we are playing in Room 1022 in the Golden Ground Entertainment City’s disco hall. Come over immediately.”
Right after saying that, she hung up.
