Quick Transmigration: The main focus is on speed.
Chapter 6 Sacrificing Oneself to Save the Wolf Is Impossible
When Qi Yuan opened her eyes, she found herself by the river. There was no one on the road. It was probably early morning, and the original owner must have been jogging and passing by the river.
He didn't even glance at the people still struggling in the river, and kept running forward without looking to the side.
In his past life, the original owner was passing by this place when he heard someone splashing in the river. He immediately saw a person, whose gender he couldn't tell, struggling in the water. Without thinking, he jumped in to save the person. As soon as he jumped in, the bone-chilling cold of the river water made the original owner, who had just run all over the place, shiver. But when he saw someone fall into the water ahead, he continued swimming forward without hesitation.
The moment the person grabbed the drowning person, that person clung to the original owner as if grasping a lifeline, clinging to her body like an octopus. The original owner used all her strength to swim to the shore with the person.
Originally, the original owner intended to push the person ashore first, and then climb up himself. However, after he pushed the person up, he ran out of strength and sank to the bottom of the water.
"If you die, no one will compete with me for the number one spot..." The river water instantly submerged the original owner's entire body, and then all that could be heard was the river water's voice.
The original owner tried to struggle, but had already lost all strength. When she woke up again, she had become a ghost and was with her parents.
Seeing her parents' graying temples and tears streaming down their faces, the original owner was filled with remorse. Why had she been so reckless as to save a cunning person? And who was that person? Why had she said those things?
The original owner couldn't see the person's face clearly, nor could she distinguish the person's voice. However, when it came to the first position, the original owner tried desperately to recall, but still couldn't find a single memory of that person in her mind.
The original owner came from a poor family. His parents worked hard for half their lives and finally managed to take over a small shop when he was in high school. They sold food to make a living. The original owner went to school during the day and would rush home to help after school. Regular customers said that the Qi family had raised a good son. He didn't need to worry about his studies, and he consistently maintained the top grades. He even knew to come home to help after school. They all said that Mr. and Mrs. Qi were very lucky to have such an enviable son.
Whenever Qi's parents hear others praising him, they beam with joy, and all their fatigue vanishes.
Although the Qi family was not wealthy, the family atmosphere was harmonious and happy. The original owner never felt that there was anything wrong with her parents. On the contrary, she felt very sorry for them, was grateful, and was determined to study hard, get into a good university, and let her parents enjoy their old age in peace.
Even so, the original owner was ultimately murdered. After her death, her body could not be found. Her parents could not find her, and their shop was closed. They sought help from everyone, but both passed away within a few years.
The original owner didn't know what happened after that, because the soul lingered in the human world for too long. The original owner didn't have the ability to live a second life, so he could only ask for help. The original owner's only wish was to get into a good university so that his parents could enjoy their old age in peace.
……
There were no surveillance cameras nearby, otherwise the original owner's body wouldn't have remained undiscovered in the previous life, eventually being devoured by fish and shrimp. Therefore, Qi Yuan ran away without any psychological burden.
As for the person in the river, who cares who he is, whether he lives or dies, or what he prays for? The person who took advantage of the original owner's kindness and killed him doesn't deserve to be saved. Shouldn't others suffer some of the consequences?
After running around, Qi Yuan ran back to his family's shop. At that moment, Qi Yuan's father was in front of the big oil pot, using long chopsticks to stir the fried dough sticks in the oil. As soon as he saw Qi Yuan return, he quickly picked up a freshly fried dough stick and handed it to him.
"You're back? Come and eat, then go to school." Seeing Qi Yuan take the fried dough sticks, Qi's father called out to the back, "Wife, our son is back."
The next moment, Qi's mother came out with a bowl of soy milk. "I added sugar. Come and eat." After saying that, she turned around and went back to the kitchen. Soon the guests would be arriving one after another, and Qi's mother had to take advantage of this time to prepare soy milk, tofu pudding, and other dishes. She didn't have much time to talk to Qi Yuan.
Qi Yuan takes a bite of fried dough stick and a sip of soy milk. The sweet soy milk makes it clear that Qi's mother has added plenty of sugar. When guests arrive, Qi Yuan tears the fried dough stick into pieces and puts them into the soy milk. She picks up the bowl, slurps it down in two bites, takes the bowl to the kitchen, washes it, and then goes out to help.
"I don't need you. Go and study. Didn't you say the mock exam is coming up soon? This is a crucial time. Go to school and study." Seeing that Qi Yuan had finished washing up and was carrying a glass of soy milk, Qi's mother took the glass of soy milk from Qi Yuan's hand and gave him a push, wanting him to go to school.
"Mom, it's not a big deal, it's still early, the school hasn't opened yet." After saying this, Qi Yuan started to get busy, serving soy milk and paying the bill.
Seeing that Qi Yuan wouldn't listen, and with so many people around, Qi Yuan's parents couldn't very well force him to leave. They thought they'd have a good talk with their son that evening, and that before the college entrance exam, Qi Yuan should make good use of his time to review more knowledge and not help out at the shop.
"Old Qi, you've raised a good son! I heard he got first place in the last exam again? If I had a son like that, I'd kowtow to my ancestors a few times..." The old customer said with a look of envy.
"Isn't your son pretty good too? His athletic performance is outstanding. Didn't he say he joined the national team the other day? You have to let me know when he competes. Kids who can bring glory to the country are all good!" Mr. Qi said with a smile, and Old Li, who had just spoken, also looked very proud.
"I hear you two praising each other every morning, you never come up with anything new." Old Zhang walked in with his big belly, ordered a bowl of tofu pudding and two fried dough sticks, and sat down in front of him.
"Have you heard? Old Chen's son ran away this morning and they still haven't found him. Old Chen and his family are going crazy with worry. They're looking everywhere for him. Hey? Have you two seen that kid from the Chen family?" Old Zhang scooped a spoonful of chive blossom sauce into the tofu pudding and began sharing the gossip he had heard this morning.
"Old Chen? Hey? Isn't that Qi Yuan's classmate? The one who always gets second place?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan finally managed to recall a figure from her memory, somewhat similar to the person she had seen that morning, but she couldn't remember their name, nor could she recall it from the original owner's memories.
"They're not classmates, they're just in the same school and grade, but not in the same class." When it came to this, Qi's father knew clearly. He had met the Chen family's son before, but the boy was a bit gloomy. He had come to have breakfast with Old Chen, but he hadn't said a word the whole time. After finishing his meal, he left without saying a word. The Chen father and son acted as if they were strangers.
"It's not important, it's not important. Why can't you find it? Did you go through puberty? Or what?" Old Li was the most gossipy person. His wife loved to hear it, so as soon as he saw there was some juicy gossip, he started asking questions. He was thinking that when he brought his wife food back later, he would tell her some gossip to wake her up.
"I don't know, but Old Chen is sweating profusely. He's asking everyone he meets if they've seen his son. They should get to this place soon. You can ask Old Chen then."
"When will that be? My wife is still waiting for me to bring food back home. Never mind, just let me know when you find out." After finishing the last bite, Old Li took the packed food and left Qi's shop.
After seeing that Old Li had left, Qi's father stopped asking Qi Yuan for help. He took off his gloves, pushed Qi Yuan in a wheelchair, and sent him to school. Qi Yuan had no choice but to comply with his father's wishes.
Nothing happened all day except that Chen's father came to the school to ask if his son had come to school that day.
When Qi Yuan returned home that evening, he learned from his father that Old Chen's son had not yet been found. Based on the existing clues, it was Old Chen's son who caused the original owner's death. He wondered if Qi Yuan, who had not gone down to save people in this life, would have survived.
For the next month, news of the Chen family's son's disappearance spread like wildfire. Some said that the son couldn't stand his father's oppressive parenting style and ran away from home. Others said that the son was going through a rebellious phase and went out to work. In short, there were all sorts of rumors.
Qi Yuan ignored all of this and didn't bother to investigate why the Chen family's son harbored such deep resentment towards the original owner, even going so far as to risk his own life to scheme against her. Qi Yuan focused on his college entrance exams as planned, and after finishing them, he helped with chores at home. His parents, feeling sorry for him, told him to rest and relax at home. When Qi Yuan realized the shop wouldn't let him go back, he found a part-time job for the summer.
As expected, Qi Yuan became the top science student in the local area and entered the university that the original owner had always dreamed of. Everything went according to the original owner's plan: graduation, job, and supporting her parents.
Later, it was said that Old Chen did not find his son for a long time. Two years later, Chen's mother became pregnant again and gave birth to her younger son after ten months of pregnancy. She never thought of her missing eldest son again.
