Chapter 445: Scapegoat Stepsister Doesn’t Want to Die (2)

"The plot doesn’t say it explicitly, but the hidden storyline reveals that these two have known each other since childhood, basically like childhood sweethearts. Later, they each got married, lost their spouses one after another, and when they met again, they decided to live together, having some emotional foundation, but definitely not interfering with or destroying families."

"The original character had two regrets: one, she didn’t get into a good university, and two, she didn’t cure her mother’s illness. So, one of your tasks is to get into university and cure Mao Fang’s illness, and there’s another task..."

"That’s already two tasks."

"It’s an easy thing, no difficulty for you."

"The second task is related to Jiang Ci. His eye issue is also connected to the original character; the reason he became blind was because, on the day of the car accident, the driver who crashed into him was the original character’s dad.

On that day, the original character had a fever over forty degrees. Her dad drove too aggressively in a hurry and collided with the car that was picking up Jiang Ci for school. Her dad died, and Jiang Ci became blind. This debt is yours to repay."

"The dad is gone, and this debt can’t be cleared?"

Little Buding spoke with a serious tone.

"The dad is gone, he sought it himself through illegal driving, but Jiang Ci’s eyes are innocent. The debts of the father must be repaid by the child, and you need to compensate."

Jiang Lai lazily lay there, looking indifferent.

"Compensate? How to compensate? Should I gouge out my eyes and send them to him?"

"No need to go to that extreme, just try to repay as much as possible and obtain his forgiveness."

Jiang Lai frowned.

"This guy wants to kill me, and I have to compensate him? Is he too weak to trouble me?"

"What do you mean by trouble... You, stop daydreaming, just lie down and think about how to accomplish your tasks."

Jiang Lai sorted it out.

Three tasks: get into university, save Mao Fang, compensate Jiang Ci.

The first two are easy, but the last one gives a bit of a headache.

In the plot, Jiang Ci is like a psycho, a crazy genius who can ruin even his own dad. If he finds out his blind left eye is because of her, he would definitely want to kill her faster.

However, Jiang Lai doesn’t like seeking trouble herself; the world is just starting, the modern society is beautiful, and it’s also the era of her almost forgotten student life.

But soon, Jiang Lai felt a bit troubled again.

Because the original character is already in the first semester of high school sophomore year, intensive training for the general exam is about to start. The original character is good at piano, dance, and recitation, but these have nothing to do with Jiang Lai.

She inherited the original character’s memories, but doesn’t mean she can inherit the original character’s artistic skills.

This kind of thing can’t be mastered quickly, Jiang Lai has no artistic foundation, if she continues on the art student path, she is likely to hold the original character back.

"What are you thinking about?"

Mao Fang came in at this time, seeing her daughter sitting in bed, staring at the blank TV screen.

Jiang Lai’s eyes moved slightly, looking at Mao Fang.

She’s really pretty. Even though she’s in her forties, she maintains herself like she’s in her early thirties. The original character inherited her beauty, with deep and exquisite features, especially a pair of big eyes with long, dense, curly lashes, somewhat resembling a mixed-race.

Jiang Lai was just staring at her own reflection on the screen.

"Mom, I don’t want to be an art student anymore."

"Huh? What did you say?"

"I said, I want to focus on cultural subjects, don’t want to be an art student anymore. I want to be a doctor."

"..."

Mao Fang looked at Jiang Lai with concern.

"Daughter, mom doesn’t have high intelligence; both your looks and brain follow mom. Let’s face reality and make up for shortcomings, okay? Don’t think about useless things."

Jiang Lai stopped talking.

Saying more to her about this is useless; only by achieving good grades can she shut mum’s mouth.

Indeed, with the original character’s poor cultural subject level, aiming for medical school is really a pipe dream.

But Jiang Lai’s strongest skill in this life is studying; when it comes to exams, she is professional. In the eighties, she could stand out from millions of test-takers, and it’s the same now.

Since she has made up her mind, time is money, Jiang Lai requested to be discharged from the hospital; she didn’t want to waste even a second.

The hospital check-up results showed just a minor fracture in the right arm, so after being plastered, she was sent home.

At home, Mao Fang was preparing to request sick leave for Jiang Lai, but Jiang Lai stopped her.

"No need, I can go to school."

"Your right arm is gone, are you just bringing your ear to listen? Why waste that time? Rest at home properly, I’ll also take leave to accompany you for a few days."

"No need, I still have my left hand."

"Lai Lai... what’s wrong with you? Don’t be like this, mom is scared."

The next morning, Jiang Lai put on her school uniform, shouldered her schoolbag, and carried her injured right arm waiting early at the door.

The bag seemed heavy; Mao Fang curiously opened it, and wow, it was full of books.

Jiang Lai’s high spirits for learning shocked Mao Fang. Was this still the Jiang Lai whose school bag only carried a small mirror and cushion powder comb?

"Mom, there’s one more thing to tell you; yesterday I carelessly fell down the stairs myself, it has nothing to do with Jiang Ci. After the fall, I suddenly felt that in my sophomore year, I still have endless possibilities, and I want to pursue my real dream!

Mom, do you believe me?"

Mao Fang blinked, paused for a long moment, and dryly came out with a sentence.

"Why don’t you go with me to the hospital for a check-up?"

"It’s you who needs the hospital check-up, haven’t you been saying your back and belly hurt? Don’t ignore physical warnings as a middle-aged woman, go to the hospital later for a check-up, don’t make me worry."

Upon hearing this, Mao Fang felt both touched and helpless.

This girl after a fall seems to become so sensible, but Jiang Lai’s reminder made Mao Fang realize she indeed should get a check-up, anyways she’s already on leave, being idle anyway.

Jiang Zhen Sheng drove Jiang Lai to school; as the best elite school in Z City, you can feel the school’s grandeur and heritage just arriving at the gate.

Under the statue of the school’s first principal, Jiang Lai stepped forward for a solemn observation, then carried her heavy schoolbag towards the teaching building.

The arts students’ building is in front of the science and humanities students’ building, just stepping into the class door you can hear a soft and gentle female voice from the broadcast. As soon as this voice sounds, the boys who were making noise immediately quiet down, with expressions serious and enjoying listening.

Jiang Lai, as one of the outstanding art students, had her seat by the window. She put down her schoolbag, drew out the heavy textbooks inside, virtually every one of them as new as the first.

Because Jiang Lai planned to study science, most of the books she brought were math, physics, chemistry, biology.

"Hey Jiang Lai, what are you doing? Building walls for fun?"

Tang Song, who was also an art student, liked to chat with Jiang Lai whenever he’s idle. As soon as he sat down and saw Jiang Lai’s hanging arm, he laughed and asked.

"What’s up? Tell bro who hit you, and I’ll give you a voice!"

Jiang Lai didn’t even raise her head, opened a math workbook, holding a pen with her left hand, bowed her head and started solving problems.

Tang Song couldn’t help bursting into laughter upon seeing this.

"Stop pretending, it’s one thing to pretend in front of others, but why pretend in front of me, I know your level too well."
