Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 482: 482 Chapter: Dream

New Year’s Eve, the Gu Family prepared a table full of dishes, gathering together with Gu Chunxia’s family.

This past year, Gu Chunxia’s family has undergone tremendous changes. The couple were always diligent, not only establishing a firm footing in Nanshui Village, but Zhao JianShe, being skilled in carpentry, often helped villagers with building houses or making furniture. This way, he accumulated some connections.

Another good thing is that Old Sir Gu has persistently improved throughout the year and now can walk with support.

Although still needing help, it is much better than being paralyzed and immobile on the bed.

After finishing the New Year’s Eve dinner, it was time to stay up late. At this time, there were no televisions in the village, so Gu Lingling thought of a fun activity, setting up a five-in-a-row grid using a sand table to play with Zhao Xuefei.

Unfortunately, a study master is always a study master. Though Gu Lingling taught Zhao Xuefei the game initially, she never won a single match.

”Don’t lose heart, you’ll definitely win this time.” Zhao Jingmiao was a loyal supporter of Gu Lingling, constantly encouraging her.

”Let’s give it up, we should’ve gotten used to it by now.” Gu Lingling stopped playing, having faced defeat by the study master multiple times, her heart grew resilient.

But there was a benefit too; being around Zhao Xuefei motivated Gu Lingling to improve significantly.

”How about we compete in reciting texts?” Zhao Xuefei hesitantly suggested.

”I don’t want to.” Zhao Jingmiao rejected decisively.

If her brother was a study master, Gu Lingling seemed just as remarkable. Besides, given she wasn’t considering pursuing further studies, reciting texts wouldn’t interest her.

”I’m going to sleep.” Watching the two enthusiastically compete in reciting, Zhao Jingmiao yawned. She decided to not stay and endure this.

Opening the door, ”Wow, it’s snowing.”

This should be the third snowfall of the year, though the previous ones weren’t heavy. Judging by the appearance this evening, it seemed like a big snowfall was coming.

Gu Lingling followed to the door and gazed at the falling snowflakes, her thoughts suddenly drifted to Yang Yunhai.

It had been several months without any news. Despite repeatedly reassuring herself that no news was good news, she couldn’t help but worry.

A month ago, the Black Bird suddenly flew away and hasn’t returned.

Previously, it would appear sporadically, but for some reason, Gu Lingling could understand its intent when it left.

It was searching for Yang Yunhai.

Indeed, it hasn’t reappeared since.

Perhaps due to her thoughts, that night Gu Lingling dreamt of Yang Yunhai.

In the dream, Yang Yunhai wore a sharp suit, and beside him stood a beautiful girl in a white dress. She clung to Yang Yunhai’s arm, looking very happy.

The two seemed to be attending some banquet. Gu Lingling even saw the girl whispering softly in Yang Yunhai’s ear with a smile, unknown of what she said.

Although Yang Yunhai’s expression was always calm, the scene still pained Gu Lingling’s eyes.

She wanted to open her mouth to call Yang Yunhai, but the scene suddenly shifted, showing a black handgun pointed at Yang Yunhai and the girl.

Bang!

Gu Lingling sat up from the bed.

Her forehead covered in sweat.

The gunshot seemed aimed at Yang Yunhai, yet somehow it felt directed at herself.

She saw a figure at the banquet resembling herself.
