Capítulo 15: Xiang Linxin

The hardest part about the tests issued by the mysterious Temple of Reincarnation was not knowing beforehand what they wanted to test.

The guide said it would be different per person. But what would decide whether one passed or not? Was it aptitude? Wisdom? Character? Ability to adapt?

Unfortunately, only the examiners knew. No examinee would be informed of anything in the whole duration of the trial.

Zhang Mei Xing already went through it, so she understood that if one was not attentive to details, it was easy to dismiss the faint image of an hourglass in their subconscious. They would not even know that the world was a fake, that there was a time limit in staying there.

However, if one would think about it seriously, this development was not at all unreasonable. Most examinees were people with bitter past or deep regrets. These people of course would be more prone to focus on the fact that they were suddenly brought back to life. That they could amend their wrongs and not choose the wrong step again.

There were some who were confronted with things or events that left them no chance to deep dive into the odd details about their resurrection.

And Xiang Linxin was precisely one of them, going through this very situation.

…

The last thing Xiang Linxin remembered was the anger that she saw upon hearing that all her misfortunes were jointly created by her sister and the man she loved.

And oh, the despair she felt upon realizing it was already too late.

But it had already been a few minutes since she confirmed that all her senses worked perfectly and she was not having any difficulty breathing.

Xiang Linxin had been stunned at first. Yet the warmth in her hand that registered to her brain after she touched her face was not giving her any more reason to deny the possibility.

'So I have truly come back to life?'

'I can still redo things and save myself?'

Xiang Linxin held her breath.

The woman's hands were shivering as she impatiently looked for her phone inside her bag. The narrowed space only held her so the sounds produced by the stuff inside it echoed loudly to her ears alongside her hurried breaths.

Xiang Linxin was not as bright as to not ask someone about the current date. She might even find it more convenient and less time-consuming. However, right now she was the only person in the elevator that was headed for the topmost floor and only the heavens know how annoyed she was that there was no wristwatch on her wrist that would let her easily confirm the date and time.

"Date! Date! Date!" In just ten seconds that she was fumbling for her phone, the words left her mouth almost a dozen times.

'May 23…' On the beautiful face that was shone by the LCD light was shocked that was mixed with alarm and anxiety.

'Oh my god!'

'This is the day my damn father disowns me!'

At this thought, the woman froze. She chose not to dwell on how and why she was suddenly alive, but on what the date entailed to her.

It was the start of the actual nightmare.

Her downfall began not when her ex-fiance renounced the agreement, but on this day when she got summoned by her father, when that man decided to stand on the side of that scheming b*tch, Shen Li.

As she remembered what happened to her, her entire body radiated hate, so much hate that she was shuddering as she balled her fists.

She was that angry! The outrage was from being hurt and disappointed too much.

When all the world was ganging up on her and forcing her to die, she was expecting her father to be the one to place her under the safety of his wings. But no! That person actually chose to believe in the rumors and fake news. He refused to listen to his own daughter! Not only that, he also did not hesitate to cut off all relations with her at the time when she badly needed someone to support her, or just believe in her!

'Just what kind of devil he is to do that to his own daughter, huh?!'

Xiang Linxin's eyes reddened. The memories were so painful, the images of her begging to be heard only to be shunned cut through her heart, breaking it into pieces.

It was something she did not want to go through again.

'That b*tch is also in there, right? Waiting to see me cry? Huh, as if I'd let her!'

The thought triggered something inside her. So she charged head-on, barely restraining the rage she was feeling within.

She did this even though she was aware of what was waiting for her in that office.

Unfortunately, the girl was not some heroine who could immediately come up with a plan or counterattack when confronted with a situation unfavorable to her. There was also no powerful aide by her side to help her destroy all obstacles in her path.

She let herself be controlled by her emotions, and not long after, she reaped the price of her impulsiveness.
