Reborn to Meet You
Zhang Xi has dreamed of being reborn twice.
The first time, she tore up her acceptance letter to a prestigious high school for her younger brother, spent her youth working on a factory assembly line, and ended up with nothing but grievances. The second time, she fought her way into college, only for her family to pressure her into marrying a “respectable” doctor. Amid endless demands and neglect, she became exactly the kind of person she hated most.
In her dreams, she always thought she could change her fate by starting over. She fixated on her regrets, only to be battered and bruised by the tsunami of her own obsession. Then, when she woke with a start, she saw Han Lin. He had never gone to college and made a living hauling freight, yet he would take time off and earn less just to cheer her up. He saved two months’ wages to buy her a silver ring, and after working late into the night, he would hurry home with a bowl of hot soup.
And then there were her parents. They weren’t wealthy, but they saved the sweetest strawberries for her and set aside hot dumplings for her, protecting her with their simple, heartfelt love.
Only then did Zhang Xi understand that being reborn was never salvation. True happiness had never been in daydreams about “what if.” She stopped dwelling on the past and envying an imaginary perfect life, choosing instead to cherish the people beside her: telling her parents to “be careful” in the morning, leaving a light on for Han Lin at night, and spending weekends with the whole family shopping at the market and cooking a warm meal.
It turned out that the best kind of “rebirth” wasn’t going back to the past. No matter how many wrong turns she took, she could still meet the person who treasured her above all else and hold on to this ordinary yet wonderfully warm everyday life.
