Chapter 1021 - 815: Reflections (Past Life Side Story 1) (Part 2)
She can’t be here, how can she be here? She must go back, she must go back.
Just as she was feeling anxious and at a loss, she suddenly heard the "herself" on the bed speak.
The words spoken made her instantly realize she had returned to her past life, to the time when she told Han Yi about the divorce.
Only then did she notice that Han Yi was wearing the military uniform from a few years ago, while the new model had just been introduced last year.
And the "herself" on the bed was dressed much less stylishly than she is now.
How did she return to this time? Why was she in this place? Could fate be giving her another chance to start over? From this moment?
Before she could figure out what was happening, she was drawn to Grandma’s house.
There, she saw Grandma silently sighing, saw Mom crying incessantly beside her, and saw Aunt Jin’s disappointment.
And Han Yi’s dull, lifeless eyes. He was sitting in their matrimonial room, eyes blankly staring at the divorce papers on the table, not blinking for a long time.
Just when Lin Wan thought he might strain his eyes, she saw his hand slowly pick up the agreement and tear it to shreds in an instant.
She heard Mom persuading him to let go, to find someone else. Heard Grandma’s comforting words, and even witnessed the sneers and complaints from Aunt.
The whole family crowded around Han Yi, relentlessly advising him. From beginning to end, she only heard Han Yi say one sentence, "No matter whom I marry, be she good or bad, she is my lifetime responsibility."
Upon hearing this, she felt so ashamed she dared not face the present Han Yi. She anxiously circled around Han Yi, with tearful eyes telling him she was not worthy, not worthy at all. Whether it was being manipulated or for whatever reason, she was not deserving of Han Yi; he deserved better.
Not to be stuck with someone as filthy, as contemptible as herself.
She so wanted to dissuade Han Yi, but Han Yi simply couldn’t hear her words. She remained by him, felt his inner worry, discovered he was still worried about her.
Watching him secretly search for her, he dared not call her home, fearing Mom and her brother would find out and feel hurt.
Without calling, he couldn’t rest easy, eventually locating Ye Qing after much inquiry.
She watched as Ye Qing deceived Han Yi, talking about how she and Li Liang were mutually infatuated, and how she did things disloyal to Han Yi. From Ye Qing’s mouth came everything opposite to reality.
She even claimed that when in front of her, I looked down on Han Yi, and said a lot of bad things to Han Yi.
She subtly revealed the night Han Yi saved her, distancing herself from all responsibility.
Ha, so this is how Ye Qing ended up with Han Yi after I left in the previous life.
Seeing Han Yi’s increasingly darkened face, I initially thought he’d believe Ye Qing’s words, but unexpectedly Han Yi didn’t listen to Ye Qing’s defamation against me. Instead, he remembered Li Liang.
Later, I saw Han Yi hit Li Liang. He was venting for me. But he was a soldier and couldn’t go too far.
After that, I was suddenly drawn to my hometown, seeing Mom holding a photo alone, secretly mourning while shedding tears.
I saw it was a photo of Dad when he was young.
I also saw, after returning home following the divorce, Mom disappointedly slapped me, witnessed her anxious expression after I left in a fit of anger.
Seeing Ye Qing returned home, spreading the news of my affair and divorce, making everyone in the village aware.
For a time, our family became the village’s laughingstock, I saw Li Fugui’s lecherous gaze towards Mom. I saw Qiu Hualan and Li Xinghua slandering Mom among the villagers. Unable to contact me, combined with Li Fugui’s persistent harassment and village gossip, they eventually crushed the always strong Mom.
I even saw the event where Qiu Hualan’s family murdered Ye Weijun.
Turns out, in the previous life, Ye Weijun didn’t drunkenly fall into the ditch by himself.
That night, Ye Weijun indeed drank, but on the way back, Qiu Hualan and Ye Qing decisively pushed him into the ditch, mother and daughter watched Ye Weijun struggling for survival in the water. Even when he tried to climb out, Ye Qing coldly, mercilessly kicked her own father back down; her ruthless gaze was crystal clear to me. Floating in the air, the look in Ye Qing’s eyes almost made me fall.
Also, my brother was hiding in the bushes when the mother and daughter killed Ye Weijun.
So, in the last life, Ye Qing and her family were indeed the ones who killed Ye Weijun. Remarkably similar to the present.
And this matter, has never been doubted.
After Ye Weijun’s death, Qiu Hualan finally stood with a straightened back.
...
After Mom passed away, my brother noticed I hadn’t been in touch with family, worried about me, he went to S City to find me.
Floating alongside my brother, I watched helplessly as he beat Han Yi, bruising his nose and face, and Han Yi didn’t fight back.
I wanted to step forward and tell my brother, it wasn’t Han Yi’s fault. But they couldn’t see me, nor sense my presence.
I watched helplessly as my brother went to settle scores with Li Liang, only to be beaten by his entire family, lying still on the road in pouring rain.
I floated beside my brother, powerless. Ultimately, it was Han Yi who took him to the hospital, patiently advising him not to be reckless.
Later, my brother stayed in S City, Han Yi found him a government runner job.
Whether Han Yi was on leave or my brother was resting, they were always searching for me but to no avail.
Eventually, through my brother’s efforts, he learned auditing, impressing a leader in his unit who took him under his wing.
That leader happened to be Mu Qing’s second uncle.
Ye Qing, under the guise of a close friend, incessantly sought Han Yi, visiting Grandma’s, even finding the military base.
I watched desperately as Ye Qing deceived my beloved, silently chanting for Han Yi not to be fooled by her trickery.
Thankfully, Han Yi was perceptive, maintaining distance from Ye Qing, and later, when Ye Qing became too clingy, he uttered words that Ye Qing considered hurtful.
