Space and Rebirth: The Favored Genius Doctor and Businesswoman - chapter 2 - The Lucky Star that Fends Off Evil (福星挡煞)

Thinking of the past, Jing Yunzhao only wanted to give these people what they deserve, but she knew too well of her own powerlessness . If she were to do something right now, the one who’d suffer from consequences would be herself!

“Jiejie (T/N: big sister), you’re awake? Thank god, mom is already sick . I was scared you’d… . ” Qiao Hongye said as if she actually cared .

Ye Qin’s face looked pale and unhealthy . Her vitals had already been affected . If Jing Yunzhao remembered correctly, Ye Qin’s passing should be near . They should’ve already made preparations .

“Yunzhao, don’t you know any better?! Your mom’s still sick . Instead of staying home and helping her, you’re out there with some hooligans . Do you know what would’ve happened if it weren’t for the policeman passing by?!” Qiao Weimin scolded, acting as if he was a good father .

Jing Yunzhao had fainted and it was all thanks to Qiao Hongye .

Jing Yunzhao was only 15 years old this year, but she’s already in high school . (T/N: According to Wikipedia, 15 is the age students should be finishing junior high in China . ) Yesterday was Friday . When she was waiting after school for the bus home, a bunch of hooligans forced her to stay . They acted as if they were quite acquainted with her in front of the other students passing by . Then they took her to an alleyway . If it weren’t for a passing policeman, her innocence would’ve been spoiled!

Originally, she didn’t even think that all of this had been planned . But after Ye Qin’s death, she saw Qiao Hongye together with those hooligans . That was when everything became clear!

Qiao Hongye was younger than her by almost a year . Jing Yunzhao never thought she would be this scheming, this cruel!

“Dad, you know my grades are ranked number one of the whole school . Even number two is far from catching up . Do you think a student like me would have anything to do with those hooligans? They were clearly bullying me,” Jing Yunzhao said without a qualm .

If this were the past, she’d endure and apologize . But now, she’s not planning to get along with them, so why should she act cautiously?

When Qiao Hongye heard Jing Yunzhao, her face turned red and then white .

She, Jing Yunzhao, and Qiao Zizhou attend the same school, but the only difference was her brother’s horrible grades . He got in by using bribery . And she, herself, worked hard to get in and could only get number two of the entire school!

Jing Yunzhao seemed like a huge mountain . Her grades were always better than hers . No matter how hard she tried, it was never close to enough!

But at Qiao Hongye’s age, she should in the grade level right below Jing Yunzhao’s . When Jing Yunzhao entered junior high, Qiao Hongye and Qiao Zizhou were upset . They did all they could to make Ye Qin pull some strings to let them attend school earlier resulting in them three being in the same grade .

“Mom, my teacher said my grades can improve, but I just can’t focus on my studies lately the way jiejie does . I’m worried about you, mom . I’m really scared . I can’t pay attention in class . I can’t even sleep… . ” Qiao Hongye said while hugging Ye Qin’s arm .

Ye Qin always looked at Qiao Hongye with eyes full of affection . She was her biological child after all .

Jing Yunzhao’s heart became cold .

She respected Ye Qin . Ye Qin did raise her for all these years, but she couldn’t help but feel cold and bitter .

Ye Qin rarely showed such a loving expression to her . Even most of the smiles she had seen felt somewhat fake . Since she was little, she had been told to do this and do that for Qiao Hongye . If she ever refused, Ye Qin would get mad and yell at her .

In the past, she never understood why she, who was also Ye Qin’s daughter, was being treated so differently . But now, she understood .

She was only a baby Ye Qin had found . Ye Qin was already pregnant at that time . She wanted to throw Jing Yunzhao away, but she was scared of committing a sin . She couldn’t calm her heart, so she went to a fortune-teller . The fortune-teller told her that Jing Yunzhao may live a difficult life, but to Ye Qin’s children, she will be a lucky star . She will fend off evil and promise a peaceful future for her kids .
