Standing on the steps of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Su Li poured out all the grievances she'd accumulated over ten years:
"When you were young, you said you'd work hard. In middle age, you still had to keep striving. When we're old, are you still going to go on like this? I can't spend another day living like a widow!"
Qin Luoxiao said nothing, her knuckles turning white.
"From high school until now, I've spent half my life on you." Su Li gave a bitter smile. "If I could start over, I wouldn't give you a second glance."
Who knew that "golden crow's mouth" was a real thing?
Just as the two of them were about to go in and file for divorce, the world spun, and time turned back.
When she opened her eyes again, Qin Luoxiao was shielding her with her own body, protecting her from a basketball flying toward her.
The scene of their first meeting in high school was playing out again on the eve of their divorce.
Su Li stared in shock for a moment, then shoved the person off her and watched her land on the ground. She threw her head back and laughed.
Heaven has finally opened its eyes!!!
A thirty-year-old soul in a sixteen-year-old body. This time, she held every card.
Not only would she rewrite her fate and avoid every life choice involving Qin Luoxiao, she would also take the chance to complete an "extra assignment"...
She would bully the Qin Luoxiao who hadn't yet learned to hide her feelings and blushed at the drop of a hat, mercilessly, back in their school days.
After all, who could be better at making her lose control than the woman who used to be her wife?
But gradually, she began to realize, confused, that...
The Qin Luoxiao who had always put studying and work first in her memories would quietly climb over the school wall after evening study when Su Li casually said she was hungry, just to buy her a bowl of steaming wontons.
The Qin Luoxiao who used to tell her she was "too busy" now waited at every alley where Su Li came home late, always tilting her umbrella toward Su Li.
All her efforts, all her hard work, seemed to be for nothing but... reaching her faster.
She indulged Su Li so much.
Only once, when she saw Su Li smiling as she walked with someone else, did Qin Luoxiao turn red-eyed and choke out pitifully, "Ever since I was little, whenever I wanted something, I could see hope if I worked hard for it. But you... Susu, you're the one unpredictable thing in my life. Could you please not like her?"
