I was reborn on the day the college entrance exam results were announced.
In the family group chat, my brother posted a screenshot showing his forged exam score—600 points, enough for him to easily get into Tsinghua University or Peking University.
Relatives in the group praised him.
"The Lao Liang Family has finally made it; we have a top scorer in the college entrance exam!"
"Jiacheng, you really brought honor to our family!"
"Xiaoran, how many points did you score?"
Someone mentioned me.
In my previous life, I scored 650 points, higher than my brother. But so what?
My brother flaunted his status as a Tsinghua student and swindled hundreds of thousands from our parents. They were completely taken in by him, willingly handing over money.
He claimed he needed to buy research equipment and that tuition was expensive, requiring a lot of funds. Our parents were so confused by his lies that they even stopped my living expenses, forcing me to drop out and work to earn money for him.
It wasn't until I discovered that my brother was lying that everything changed. He had not been admitted to Tsinghua at all! He was addicted to gambling and online loans, drowning in debt!
But my parents didn't believe me. My brother, furious and embarrassed, stabbed me with a knife.
Mom deleted the surveillance footage from the living room, and Dad disposed of my body in the wilderness.
My corpse was torn apart by wild dogs, and my soul could find no peace.
Until I die, I will suddenly awaken.
How can these be my relatives?
They are clearly a group of demons who feast on human flesh!
Their blood runs through my veins, yet they wish for my death!
It's only because my brother is their beloved son, while I am merely a dispensable substitute!
Uncle asked, "Xiaoran, what score did you get?"
Mom shouted loudly, "You little brat, come see what score you got!"
Brother sneered, "Mom, if you shout like that, do you think she'll dare to come out?
She definitely didn't do well and is too embarrassed to face anyone!"
Dad sat on the sofa, sipping tea as he said,
"Girls don't need an education; I bet she flunked this time.
She might as well go out and work to help support the family."
I walked out expressionlessly.
"How do you know I didn't do well?"
Brother smugly replied,
"I know for sure because I received a call from Tsinghua; I've been accepted!"
Mom slapped her thigh: "Son, Tsinghua called you? Why didn't you tell me?"
Brother beamed with pride: "They just called a little while ago."
Mom: "Quick, show me the call log; I'll negotiate terms for you.
Tsinghua must give you a full scholarship; otherwise, we'll go to Peking University!"
Brother: "Mom, the chances of getting a full scholarship from Tsinghua are very slim,
but they said they could offer a 50,000 scholarship."
Mom: "Only 50,000? You're the top scorer in the college entrance exam; why are they so stingy?"
The home phone suddenly rang.
Mom quickly grabbed the phone and pressed the speaker button.
"Hello, is this the home of Liang Jiacheng?"
Mom proudly replied, "Yes, my son is the top scorer in the college entrance examination and has been admitted to Tsinghua!"
"We are from the Admissions Office of Peking University and would like to ask if Liang Jiacheng is at home?"
My brother, looking pleased, said, "I'm here. Are you trying to persuade me to go to Peking University? If the conditions are good enough, I might consider it..."
Mom quickly covered my brother's mouth and smiled, saying, "My son just woke up and hasn't brushed his teeth yet; please don't mind. If you can offer a full scholarship, we might consider letting my son switch to Peking University!"
There was a brief silence on the other end before they said, "Sorry, we are not looking for Liang Jiacheng; we are looking for another candidate, Liang Ran."
The whole family was stunned.
My brother's smile froze on his face.
