[Rebirth | Cool, innocent college girl × Taciturn, rugged blacksmith who secretly loved her in her previous life]
As Lin Zhou was drowned through the combined efforts of her best friend and her scumbag boyfriend, she finally saw her so-called friend for what she really was.
Reborn on the rainy night she was supposed to sign a contract selling her daughter, she slapped it against her greasy father’s face. “Selling your daughter? Why not sell your coffin money instead!”
When her ex showed up with roses, begging to get back together, she grabbed a scoop of pig manure and dumped it over his head. “Get lost! You stink worse than my pigsty!”
Only the blacksmith at the end of the village made her ears turn red.
In her previous life, the dark-skinned man had fixed her bicycle for free. Now, he rubbed a coal-dusted finger against her nose. “Girl, why do you keep avoiding me?”
She stamped her foot and called him a dirty old flirt, but when she turned away, the sight of his muscular arms as he worked the forge left her dizzy.
Then, on a stormy night, he carried her across the river with one arm, his breath brushing her neck. “Give me a proper title, or I’ll charge you next time.”
Just as they made their relationship official and spent two years building their strawberry cooperative into a thriving business, her scumbag father’s vile deeds reopened the deep scars Lin Zhou had buried. The bomb went off.
A perfectionist, she couldn’t bear such a disgusting stain. In a moment of despair, she drove toward the sea.
Chu Sui cried for the first time. “Zhouzhou, what am I supposed to do?”
Lin Zhou didn’t cry. Her mind had stopped working. She looked at him. “What am I supposed to do?”
“If I’m gone, you’ll still have other people. But I have no friends, no family. Without you, I have nothing. I can’t even stand myself.”
During her first rebirth, she accidentally fell into the sea.
The jade pendant glowed beneath the water: [Host’s wish identified.]
