Chapter 293 1 Life 2
Lin Xiao's life was like a dramatic and turbulent musical piece, which abruptly ended at the age of twenty-eight, like a snapped string. It was an ordinary day, yet destined to become a nightmare. A sudden car accident, like the cruel claws of a demon, mercilessly snatched away her young and vibrant life. At that moment, the world seemed to stop turning. Her soul, like a light feather, drifted in endless darkness, and her regretful love, like a bubble, shattered in the sunlight, vanishing without a trace.
However, fate seemed to have a sliver of favor towards her, like a merciful god gently waving a hand from the clouds. When Lin Xiao opened her eyes again, she found herself back in her high school days at the age of seventeen. It was a world brimming with youthful energy, where sunlight filtered through dappled leaves, casting golden patches on the ground, like a dreamlike painting.
Seventeen-year-old Lin Xiao was like a budding flower, still that naive and innocent girl. Her high ponytail swayed with her movements, as if youth itself was joyfully leaping. Her eyes were clear and bright, like twinkling stars in the night sky, filled with longing for the future—a longing as vast and boundless as a glittering galaxy. She clearly remembered that at this time in her previous life, her world changed because of one person. That person was like a ray of light shining into her ordinary life—Su Chen.
Su Chen was undoubtedly the most popular figure in the school. Like a dazzling sun, he radiated an undeniable light wherever he went. His academic achievements were legendary; his name always topped the list of exam results, leaving his classmates far behind. He was handsome, like a boy straight out of a painting, his deep eyes seemingly holding endless stars and seas, and his slightly upturned lips beneath his high nose always carrying a confident smile—the prince charming many girls dreamed of. Lin Xiao, on the other hand, was just an ordinary girl in this vast sea of people. She was like a small pebble, lying silently by the roadside, unnoticed. But she harbored a secret: she secretly loved Su Chen. This love, like a fawn, pounded wildly in her heart, yet she never dared to express her feelings, only secretly watching him from a corner, her gaze filled with shyness and admiration.
In this life, Lin Xiao is like a painter who has regained control of her destiny, determined to leave no regrets on her canvas. She secretly vows to bravely paint her youth and love with vibrant colors. So, she begins to study diligently; those thick books are no longer dry symbols in her eyes, but rather stepping stones to Su Chen. She rises early every day, memorizing words and texts in the soft light of dawn, and battles challenging problems under the lamplight at night. She actively participates in various activities, her lively figure a constant presence in both campus arts performances and intense sports competitions. Like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, she strives to display her beauty, all to get closer to Su Chen and enter his world.
During a math competition, fate seemed to heed Lin Xiao's inner call, arranging for her to be in the same group as Su Chen. When Lin Xiao learned this news, her heart felt like it was being caressed by a sweet spring breeze; she was so excited she almost jumped out of her chest. She was secretly delighted, feeling this was a precious opportunity bestowed upon her by heaven; she finally had a chance to get close to Su Chen. In the preparation for the competition, Lin Xiao displayed her intelligence and quick wit. Her mind moved like a nimble cheetah, swiftly navigating complex mathematical problems, always finding the key to the solution. Her novel ideas and unique solutions impressed Su Chen. A different light began to shine in Su Chen's eyes when he looked at her—a new appreciation for her intelligence and a renewed understanding of this girl.
Gradually, Su Chen began to notice this extraordinary girl. He discovered that Lin Xiao was not only intelligent but also as kind as an angel descended to earth. At school, she always enthusiastically helped classmates in need, whether bandaging wounds or patiently explaining problems to struggling students, her face always adorned with a warm smile. She was also very brave; when faced with injustices on campus, she always dared to stand up and speak out for justice. She was like a dazzling pearl, possessing a unique charm that drew Su Chen closer step by step. Their relationship grew increasingly intimate, like two parallel lines gradually intertwining. Su Chen also developed feelings for Lin Xiao, feelings that, like a seed of spring, took root and sprouted in his heart.
However, fate seems to always throw unexpected curveballs into beautiful stories. Just as their feelings for each other were blossoming, a girl named Zhou Yue stormed into their world like a tempest. Zhou Yue was a wealthy heiress, a dazzlingly beautiful rose blooming in a greenhouse. Her family background shone like a halo around her, making her the center of attention at school. She was as lively as a nimble little bird, bringing laughter wherever she went. And so, she too fell for Su Chen, launching a relentless and intense pursuit.
Zhou Yue always appeared before Su Chen dressed in fashionable and glamorous clothes, giving him expensive gifts and inviting him to various lavish parties. Her presence made Lin Xiao uneasy, as if a dark cloud had descended upon her heart. She feared that she would lose Su Chen again, just like in her previous life; that fear coiled around her heart like a cold snake. Su Chen, however, maintained his distance from Zhou Yue's pursuit, his eyes only on Lin Xiao. He politely refused Zhou Yue's gifts and invitations, his firm stance as unwavering as a rock.
Just as Lin Xiao was lost in confusion and pain, a sudden flash of inspiration struck her, and she remembered a detail from her previous life. It was during a school field trip, sunlight shimmering on the river's surface, when Su Chen accidentally fell in while playing by the riverbank. The surrounding classmates panicked, but she jumped in without hesitation to save him. In that instant, her eyes were only on Su Chen's safety; there was no hesitation whatsoever.
Lin Xiao decided that in this life, she would prove her love for Su Chen through her actions. So, on the day of the outing, when Su Chen actually fell into the river again, a resolute glint flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes. Without hesitation, she jumped in again. The river water was icy cold, but the belief in her heart burned as brightly as a flame. She swam towards Su Chen with all her might, her movements as agile as a fish.
Su Chen was moved by Lin Xiao's courage and determination. The moment Lin Xiao grabbed him, he felt as if his heart had been struck hard. After being rescued ashore, he hugged Lin Xiao tightly, his arms strong and warm, as if he wanted to merge Lin Xiao into his own life. He said affectionately, "Lin Xiao, I will never let you leave me again." His voice echoed in the wind, like an eternal vow.
