Chapter One :Chapter 1

"Qin Shuangshuang! What's with the dramatics? We were discussing Yang Tianhe's request to call off the engagement. Why did you faint? Wake up! We can't leave this unresolved."

The angry roar of a woman filled her ears, stirring Qin Shuangshuang back to consciousness, her face filled with confusion.

She was just teaching a class. How did she end up here?

What is the meaning behind the choking grip this irate woman has around her neck? Was she trying to save her life or does she bear grave hatred towards her?

Such a forceful grip, she could easily kill an alive person.

Damn it! Does she think she can be taken advantage of?

No matter what the situation might be, she had to retaliate. When did it become acceptable to choke someone?

Does she want her dead?

Let's see if she agrees, Qin Shuangshuang suddenly raised her hand, and slapped the distorted face of the furious woman.

"Slap!"

The sound was loud and clear, but Qin Shuangshuang didn't feel it was enough. She hurled a string of insults in English, Spanish, Russian, French, German, and Japanese—her customary catchphrase.

Bastards.

Why did the students of Kyoto University's Department of Foreign Languages love her lessons? She was always straightforward and connected well with them, often using this catchphrase to berate them.

Instead of being annoyed, they would retort back. Both teachers and students were bastards; none were more noble than the others.

"Ah! Qin Shuangshuang! What are you doing?" The slapped woman released her grip, clutching her face, enraged. "I was trying to save you, and you repay kindness with evil? Are you even human?"

"I am not human, I am a ghost."

This phrase thundered out from Qin Shuangshuang's subconscious. After blurting it out, she faltered, her mind was invaded by a set of memories that did not belong to her.

She had crossed over, into the body of a woman with the same name and surname in the year 1984.

The original host, Qin Shuangshuang, came to the army to look for her fiancé, Yang Tianhe, intending to get married. However, when she arrived, he told her the marriage set up by his family was not something he agreed with and decided to call it off.

Furthermore, he stated that he already had a girlfriend, Chen Zhuzhu, the woman who had just pinched her and gotten a slap in return. Chen Zhuzhu was the mainstay of the literary and art team, and the daughter of Deputy Division Commander Chen.

Upon hearing this, the previous host felt like she had become a joke. She instantly felt as if the world was spinning around her and died from anger. At this exact moment, she arrived, taking over the body of Qin Shuangshuang, who had become an object of ridicule.

Getting up from the ground, she looked around and realized she was in an office.

In the room, aside from her, there was only Chen Zhuzhu and Yang Tianhe, all alone. She guessed that these two didn't want to make a fuss about cancelling the marriage, afraid of the negative consequences, hence they brought her into a room for discussion.

The scum wanted to call off the marriage, but she couldn't allow it.

In her previous life, she was already 34 and had never had a boyfriend primarily because of jerks like Yang Tianhe who were low-level scums.

"Repaying kindness with enmity, huh?" Qin Shuangshuang scoffed at Chen Zhuzhu in front of her—the woman who had helped to induce the previous host to death deserved a considerable response. “So what if I do repay kindness with enmity? What does it matter to you? Go away, this is none of your business. Once I've settled things with Yang Tianhe, then you can parade around."

Chen Zhuzhu was boiling with anger, with teary eyes, she coquettishly complained to the scumbag Yang Tianhe beside her, "Look at her, what is she talking about, she has no manners at all!"

"Manners? May I ask, do you have any, Comrade Chen Zhuzhu?"

Qin Shuangshuang wasn’t afraid of making a big deal out of this—in the room, it was just the three of them, and Yang Tianhe obviously didn’t want others know that he had become a modern version of "Chen Shimei."

He had brought her into this room, saying he wanted to have a thorough talk.

"Negotiate my foot, people can be absent, but money must not be less, there's no room for negotiation."

Though they are in the room at the moment, this does not inhibit Qin Shuang from raising her voice, "Are you-classy enough to steal someone's fiance? Are you classy enough to rob my set-to-be spouse?

Expecting me to step back for you and Yang Tianhe? Don't you understand first come, first served? Is this the quality you speak of? Not even hypocrites could beat you at this."

"What's with the first come, first served? Tianhe told me, he had absolutely no clue his parents set him a betrothal. This was all his parents' doing. Go find them."

"Really?" Qin Shuang crosses her arms and arrogantly shakes her leg, "Yang Tianhe, do you share the same sentiment?"

Yang Tianhe, who has no clue what Qin Shuang is up to, awkwardly implores with guilt-ridden eyes, "Comrade Qin Shuang, my parents are at fault here. I'll apologize on their behalf.

I'll reimburse all the expenses for your army visit this time. Could you please cease causing a scene? You have my plead."

Feeling no more pain on her face, Chen Zhuzhu sneers and adds, "In addition to the reimbursement, I will give you an extra 100 yuan and 50 jin grain tickets."

"Slap!"

Without giving it a second thought, Qin Shuang slaps her once again, at ease seeing both sides of her face equally reddened, her compulsion finally simmering down.

"It's symmetrical at last, and a lot less sore to the eye."

"Ahh! Qin Shuang! Why'd you hit me again?"

Chen Zhuzhu can't take it any longer. This country girl was a crybaby initially, the suffering wretch who seemed like she had nowhere to express her grievances.

She faints abruptly, regains her consciousness after Qin Shuang's near-fatal grip, her whole demeanor has intensified now.

She becomes snappish, striking people and becoming smart-mouthed, as if she were possessed.

"Do I need to negotiate with you before hitting you? You've stolen my marriage, what's wrong with me hitting you a couple of times? You think that's unfair? Do you think one hundred yuan is a lot? Do you feel privileged with your fifty-kilo grain ticket? Are you treating me like a beggar?"

Qin Shuangshuang's tone was like a bully interrogating a timid woman. This left Chen Zhuzhu not knowing what to say and she scurried into Yang Tianhe's arms.

She thought that this would infuriate Qin Shuangshuang, but Qin Shuangshuang raised her hand, pointing at her.

"This is the time to discuss matters, not the time for you to flirt. Understand the situation." Accidentally slipping into her lecturing tone, Qin Shuangshuang felt exasperated, "If you keep this up, I will hit you."

With that threat, Chen Zhuzhu hurriedly hid behind Yang Tianhe, her head poking out, looking pitiful.

Qin Shuangshuang chose to ignore her, her gaze cold and fixed on Yang Tianhe, who stood aside with his fists clenched tightly. Her voice was as resounding as ever.

No choice, she was used to speaking loudly while teaching in her previous life, a habit she can't shake off. With so many people eavesdropping around the house, she had to make it worth their while.

"Yang Tianhe! You are inhuman. As a soldier, you indulge in reckless relationships and then abandon them irresponsibly, you are a complete jerk.

You even claim you didn't know about our engagement? It was arranged by your parents. Are you deceiving the dead when you visit their graves and burn paper offerings?

Do you want me to take out the letters you wrote to me in the past two years, including the one half a year ago, and read them aloud for everyone to hear?

You've found a better woman and have decided to look down on me, and that's fine. I understand and don't blame you. But what gives you the right to talk nonsense?

Still a company commander, huh? I wonder how you got that position. It wouldn’t be because of that 'pearl' backing you up, would it?"

"Enough." Exposed to the core, Yang Tianhe was irate and embarrassed. "How I got my position is none of your business. Just talk about how we are going to solve the issue between us."

"Great!"

Qin Shuangshuang was not at all angered by Yang Tianhe's shouting, what was there to be angry about for such a scumbag? The sooner things are resolved, the sooner she can collect her money and leave this place to live the life she desires.

As far as she was concerned, Yang Tianhe wasn't worth a mention. Being a soldier might carry prestige, but she wasn't lacking anything. Why should she let this jerk ruin her youth?
