In my past life, my younger sister used all her tricks to marry into the the Gu family, but ended up in a sorry state.
As for me, I only married an ordinary person to live a stable life.
She couldn't stand to see me happy, so she planned a car accident for us to die together.
When I opened my eyes again, I returned to the day when I went to the the Gu family to propose.
"Sister, now it's your turn to go to hell."
I smiled at her and said, "Okay, don't regret it."
After a flash of white light, my sister and I were sitting upright in the living room at home.
"Both young ladies are outstanding, I like them both very much. What should I do?" I blinked hard, the one speaking was Gu Anqi's mother.
"Auntie, you're too kind. How can I compare to my sister? She's excellent in every way, and besides, it's not right for the younger sister to marry before the older one."
Liu Lili calmly lifted a cup of black tea, her composed demeanor leaving me feeling a bit dazed.
Just now, weren't she and I still in the car...
[Sister, don't you think so?]
She grabbed my arm, her nails digging into my flesh, causing a sharp, piercing pain.
Ouch!
This is not a dream, just like it's described in novels, I have been reborn.
Liu Lili saw through my confusion and mouthed to me: [It's time for you to go to hell.]
Oh, so she has been reborn too.
【My sister has long admired Gu Anqi, and she has always said that no matter how you look at it, she is more suitable than me.】
【That's great, I wonder what Miss An XiaZhi thinks?】I stared at Liu Lili, who was smugly sipping her red tea.
"Lily, you've chosen the wrong tea. Green tea would be more suitable for you."
She was shocked by my close-up advice, and Liu Youcai also quietly reprimanded: "Pay attention to the occasion!"
"Auntie, I am willing to marry Young Master Gu."
"That's great, the 8th of next month is an auspicious day."
Liu Family The parents were smiling so much that they couldn't close their mouths, nodding and bowing quickly, saying, "We will follow your lead and cooperate fully."
After seeing off Gu Anqi's mother, Liu Lili immediately splashed the cup of tea onto my face.
The scalding hot tea made my whole body turn red, and I screamed in pain.
But my parents, upon seeing this, just said lightly, "Don't hurt her face, at least wait until the engagement is settled."
Haha, it seems like I really have been reborn with this malicious sister and indifferent parents.

In my previous life, on the day when Gu Anqi's mother came to propose marriage, Liu Lili locked me in the room and didn't let me out.
After she was successfully chosen, she showed off in my room for a while. Meanwhile, I quietly wore headphones and memorized vocabulary, treating her as if she were just a silly dog next to me.
"Although her father, Lily wasn't selected, at least our family will have someone to rely on in the future."
"Yeah, Mrs. Gu really has no taste, clearly our Lily is more beautiful."
【Mom and Dad, your daughter is your own flesh and blood. Of course, she wants to stay by your side for a long time and doesn't want to marry so early.】
I look at this happy family of three in front of me, coupled with Liu Lili's superb acting skills, I really want to applaud them.
In the previous life, Liu Lili complained that her dowry was too meager, forcing the couple to sell their house and land. Now, they are portraying a deep father-daughter relationship.
"Alright, we can consider that we haven't raised you for nothing all these years. We found you such a good in-laws, which can be considered as repaying your deceased parents."
"Yes, using my parents' alimony, they often beat and kick me, knowing that the other party is a super macho but still want me to marry. They really didn't raise me in vain."
"What do you mean by that? Without money, how could we have raised you? You should be satisfied to marry into The wealthiest man in Jiangzhou family."
"Yes, thank you mom and dad, I thank your ancestors for eight generations."
"You little brat, daring to be so arrogant right after the engagement, be careful I'll beat you to death."
Liu Youcai This sentence is no joke.
In the previous life, I was sent to the hospital because I added too much salt while cooking and he hit me.
In the years with the Liu Family, I have been beaten countless times. Every time I was beaten, I recorded it in my notebook, just waiting for the day when I had the ability to turn the tables and make him pay. But many things have not been done yet, and my life stopped in that car accident.
In this lifetime, I will make sure you feel my pain, a hundred or a thousand times.
For sure.

The next morning, I was awakened by the sound of a phone ringing.
My graduate school admission letter has arrived.
In my senior year, I successfully obtained a recommendation for postgraduate study and was admitted to Jiangzhou University. I also received the honor of being an outstanding graduate.
Liu Lili, who is in the same year as me, is busy preparing for her wedding with Gu Anqi. Her graduation thesis didn't pass, and she hasn't even received her diploma.
But on the day of the graduation ceremony, she still put on heavy makeup for photos and took the opportunity to tell everyone she knew that she was marrying into a wealthy family.
"If you want to come work at the Gu Group in the future, remember to contact me. It's just a simple matter."
Her classmates all looked down on her attitude, and after perfunctorily accepting the candy, they turned around and threw it in the trash.
It's not easy for her to make someone live like this.
I've been trying to go out with as little movement as possible, but I was still noticed by Liu Lili.
Just got home, and Liu Youcai slapped me as soon as I opened the door.
I was knocked to the ground.
This time, I didn't act clueless. Instead, I secretly recorded a video on my phone.
"[You cheap woman, you're about to get married, and you still dare to think about continuing your education!]"
"Yes, sister, are you trying to escape marriage and go to school?"
Liu Youcai's punches landed on me one after another, with Liu Lili adding fuel to the fire, Liu Youcai's strength was heavier than before.
In the previous life, after graduating from graduate school, I found a high-paying job, reconnected with my previous life's husband, had a sweet romance, and got married. Meanwhile, Liu Lili lost the divorce lawsuit against Gu Anqi and was also kicked out of the Gu family.
Now that I am reborn, she certainly wants to prevent me from destroying all my possible happiness.
But, Liu Lili, don't forget, I have been reborn too. How could I not properly deal with you?
"Dad, you've misunderstood. Actually, I wanted my sister to go in my place."

Of course, I made up this story to avoid getting beaten up, but Liu Youcai immediately burst into laughter when he heard me say that.
"Indeed, someone who got into graduate school is really sharp. Anyway, you two sisters are the same age, look alike, and have the same major. Let your younger sister go to graduate school in your place. This plan is feasible!"
"Dad, can this really be done? Can I really go to graduate school in place of my sister?"
"Sure! From now on, our family will have a graduate student! Hurry, hurry, hurry, quickly buy two rolls of firecrackers and go to the village entrance to set them off!"
I looked at these two fools in disbelief as they happily went to buy firecrackers.
There are actually such foolish people in this world.
Why am I still being matched with low-level games even after being reborn?
The villagers heard that after Liu Lili was admitted to graduate school, they all clamored for Liu Youcai to treat them. Liu Youcai couldn't resist and ended up spending all his savings to host a three-day feast in the village.
Drunk and staggering every day, never coming home before one or two in the morning.
That night, I was sleeping in a daze when suddenly I felt a pair of large hands roughly roaming over my body.
In my past life, I was peeped at while bathing 11 times, forcibly kissed 9 times, and sexually harassed 3 times by Liu Youcai...
[Someone come, there's a thief!]
I was so scared that I fell to the ground. Wang Xiuhua also ran over following the sound, and as soon as the light turned on, Liu Youcai immediately stood up alertly.
"The thief has already run away, don't worry, nothing has been lost."
Wang Xiuhua of course doesn't believe his nonsense, but she is an uneducated, incomeless, and childless village woman. Her lifelong creed is to listen to her husband, and to listen to Liu Youcai.
She was furious at my disheveled appearance, but didn't dare to do anything to Liu Youcai.
She picked up the cloisonné vase on the table and smashed it towards me: "What's there to steal in our house? It seems like some seductive women are trying every means to steal men!"
At this moment, Liu Lili is leaning against the door holding a glass of milk, with a smug look on her face as if she's enjoying the show.
I know she must have stolen the key to my door, otherwise Liu Youcai wouldn't have been able to open my locked bedroom door.
Sure enough, this lifetime's Liu Lili is still so fond of acting cheap.
Alright, since you're eager to make a move, let's settle our accounts carefully.

The next day before dawn, I bought a long-distance bus ticket and found the entrance to the the Gu family.
Everyone says that the young master of the the Gu family is extremely domineering, not only hot-tempered but also suspicious and unapproachable.
But not only did I take the initiative to marry him, I also brought all my savings to find him ahead of time.
Mother Gu was kind and warm to me, not only wiping my wounds but also giving me a good wash.
It wasn't until after 1 o'clock in the afternoon that Gu Anqi sleepily emerged from the bedroom.
"Where does the country girl come from?"
"Hello, my name is An XiaZhi."
"Oh, so you're my fiancée, why couldn't you wait and take the initiative to come to me?"
"No, I'm here to discuss some academic issues with you. After the school starts, we will have the same mentor."
In a past life, Gu Anqi and I were students of the same mentor, and our research topics were very similar. We would meet each other every day in the research room.
I knew he was not arrogant at all, nor was he impulsive. He had extremely high demands for experiments and data, always striving for perfection.
Later, I found out that he despised the false flattery in the business world, so he would deliberately act crazy whenever his family took him to socialize. Over time, everyone started saying he was reclusive and a loner.
Gu Anqi Although he is a young master from a wealthy family, he has a very strong passion for academics.
I took out the experiments and projects I had done in my undergraduate studies from my bag, and his attitude towards me suddenly did a complete 180-degree turn: "So you are the An XiaZhi from the Youth Academic Journal? I finally get to meet you! You are my idol!"
I was bewildered by his fanboy appearance, and Mother Gu looked at us with a pleased expression.
Gu Anqi immediately took me to his study, where a thick stack of foreign literature was placed on the desk. He took out a paper and brought over a chair, gesturing for me to sit down.
The numerous editing marks above.
"I have read this literature, and I plan to write my first paper after the semester starts on this topic."
"Big brother, please take me with you. I've never really understood this place, but as long as you can take me, I'll do anything."
"Are you sure? Then I'll really speak up."
In a past life, the reason he married Liu Lili was also ridiculously absurd.
Father Gu is very superstitious. A certain master once told Gu Anqi that he must go to a certain place to marry a woman in order for the Gu family to prosper for generations.
The address happens to be the home of Liu Youcai.
Liu Youcai had already bought off the master and planned everything in advance.
Later, Gu Anqi couldn't resist and had to marry Liu Lili as per her parents' wishes.
After marriage, Liu Lili is constantly causing trouble, even having affairs and getting pregnant without knowing who the father is. She also constantly asks Gu Anqi for money, sabotaged several projects at the company, and even conspired with Liu Youcai to take advantage of the Gu family's wealth.
Gu Anqi is also truly miserable. Clearly a wealthy young master, he did nothing wrong but was manipulated by this family and even had his education delayed because of it.
Two hours later, relying on memories from my past life, I talked to Gu Anqi about many cutting-edge academic topics and development directions. For each topic, I presented experimental reports as evidence. Gu Anqi was not only stunned but also admired me greatly.
When I pretended to get up and leave after finishing the last topic, he held onto me and refused to let me go.
"I can't do that. If my parents find out I stayed out all night, they'll kill me."
"What are you afraid of? We're getting engaged anyway, and we're just researching academic issues together, not doing anything else."
I still pretend to be in a dilemma: "I'll give your parents a call and let them know about this, is that okay?"
On the phone, Liu Youcai was happy and kept thanking me when he heard that I was going to stay overnight at the the Gu family. In the meantime, there were also a few "impossible" remarks from Liu Lili.
Looking back, Liu Lili was in a hurry to marry Gu Anqi and deliberately created a series of melodramatic coincidences, but Gu Anqi saw through all of them and scolded her back. Now he is actively asking me to stay overnight, of course, Liu Lili is not happy about it.
Although I don't want to rely on Gu Anqi to prove anything, the thought of Liu Lili looking angry makes me burst into laughter.
Liu Lili, I need to make you understand that even if you were reborn, you could never compare to me.

Gu Anqi Let me stay in the second bedroom, right across from his study.
At two in the morning, looking through the crack in the door, I could see him still in the study reading literature.
His diligent appearance is truly identical to his past life.
In the previous life, during the final exams of the second year of graduate school, while everyone was busy resting and enjoying the holiday after the exams, he was immersed in the laboratory every day, staring at the data without even taking time to eat, and lived on instant noodles in the office for half a month.
During that winter break, I happened to be interning near the school. One night, as I passed by the office to pick up something, I saw him quietly crying alone in front of the computer.
Even though I moved lightly, I still startled him: "Are you here to make fun of me?"
"I'm sorry to disturb you, I just came to get something."
"You and your sister look so alike. Do you also like money a lot? I can give it to you."
"What did you say?"
"Isn't your family all about money? I'll give you money, and you sell me your latest experimental data."
"You must be drunk."
"What's the point of pretending to be noble? Everyone else can sell it, why can't you? Besides, someone like you, even if you really develop this project, can you get fundraising? It's better to sell it to me and let me make good use of its value."
It was the Lunar New Year at the time, and I didn't want to argue, so I just gave him a glare and walked away.
That was the last time I saw him in my previous life, and then he dropped out of school.
Later, I found out that the reason he didn't go home was because father Gu had given him an ultimatum.
If this project cannot be developed, he will be forced to drop out of school and return home to inherit the family property.
That's why he was crying bitterly in the laboratory.
Sure enough, people's joys and sorrows are always different...
The next morning, I woke up early and made breakfast for the whole family.
Based on so many years of cooking experience in the Liu Family, my cooking skills have won the approval of the whole family, including the most picky father Gu.
I even personally brought breakfast to Gu Anqi's room.
I put on delicate makeup and spoke in an extremely gentle tone: "Good morning, my fiancé."
8
Along with breakfast, there was also a set of documents. Based on my memories from a past life, I had already anticipated his difficult points.
Gu Anqi Looking at the information, her eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but say, "Great."
Looking at the way I had her in my grasp, I couldn't help but say in my heart, "Great."
But there are always some people who are naturally annoying.
I heard a familiar green tea sound when the doorbell rang downstairs.
"Zhizhi, your little sister is here, come down and take a look."
"Sister, you didn't come home yesterday, I missed you so much."
Liu Lili Immediately pounced on me and hugged me tightly, even pinching my stomach.
[Why are you pinching me!]
I have a very loud voice, and everyone in the villa is staring at us.
Liu Lili didn't expect that I couldn't bear it anymore, and looked embarrassed: [No, sister, you got it wrong.]
Gu Anqi heard the voice and went downstairs, but Liu Lili walked straight past me and went to his side.
【Hello, I am An XiaZhi's sister Liu Lili, and also your future graduate school classmate.】
When I heard her say this, I almost burst out laughing. Gu Anqi also stretched her neck and asked, "Who did you say you were classmates with?"
"You see, we are in the same major."
Liu Lili is really shameless, she directly took out my admission letter, changed the name and photo on it, and shamelessly claimed it as hers.
I immediately took out my phone and logged into the Student Academic Information Network, where my information about being recommended for graduate study was clearly written.
Gu Anqi looked up and down at the heavily made-up country girl and immediately said, "Aunt Wang, please see the guest out."
I couldn't help but laugh out loud. The irony came too quickly.
Liu Lili I usually don't read messages in the class group, and I don't care about school matters at all. I probably don't even know what the school information system is.
So, having a second chance at life is useless when your mind isn't engaged.
