Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

When An Xiulan opened her eyes, she found unfamiliar settings before her eyes. Her big black eyes widened at the amazement of this world. She had heard her only companion and maid Qiao Wei talking about the afterlife.

Was she in heaven? Or in hell? Wasn’t there a checkpoint or something where they would tell her if she had entered heaven or hell?

Looking at the strange room which was white and grey in colour, she sighed. Her button nose twitched at the weird scent in the air. She had a strong-smelling power. She used to fill her stomach with the aroma of delicious food that was cooked in the main kitchen.

Why did Qiao Wei never tell her that the afterlife smelled weird? Wasn’t her great great great grandmother come back to life after visiting the afterlife once? If she ever met Qiao Wei she would ask her why she never told her about the view of the afterlife?

She tried to sit up but stopped moving when she felt a piercing pain in her hand. On turning her head at the source of the pain, her eyes widened at the sight of a thing stabbing into her thin hands. Was this thin pipe filtering out her good deeds and bad deeds?_.

‘Buddha, forgive me for lying. Don’t send me to hell. I don’t want those big monsters to eat me after frying me in hot oil and then dipping in the sauce.’

‘I’m an innocent and virtuous young lady.’

“Young miss, you are awake!” A girl exclaimed in joy as she saw An Xiulan whimpering in pain. For the first time, she smiled seeing her missy’s tears. Tears are good. Tears are good. It meant their missy was alright.

An Xiulan had an urge to point her finger at herself and ask the beautiful angel in white if she was mistaken. How could she be a young miss? It was her sister who was a young miss, not her.

She was….she was just a small fry. Not a big young miss.

“I will call madam right away. She will be happy to see you awake,” The same angel in white said.

Moments later, the door to the room was wide opened and a beautiful woman dressed in the weirdest clothes she had ever seen appeared before her eyes. If there was a word to describe the beauty of this woman, all An Xiulan could say was that the woman was even more beautiful than her brother-in-law, who was the most handsome man in the whole empire.

The woman came running but when she reached An Xiulan’s bed, she stopped in her footsteps. There was hesitation in her phoenix eyes as she glanced at her weak daughter lying on the hospital bed.

“Lanlan, thank you for coming back to mom,” She whispered.

An Xiulan glanced at the lady whose tears were now trickling down her cheeks, not at all marring her perfect image in her eyes.  She couldn’t help but stare at her more.

Suddenly, she felt her eyes heavy and brain refusing to cooperate with her as a number of strange and unfamiliar episodes started playing before her eyes.

Before she could say or react, An Xiulan fell unconscious.

….

“Doctor, how is my daughter?” An Qinyan asked the doctor in desperation.

“Miss An, Young Miss is fine now. She just fainted due to stress. I suggest you don’t ask her many questions and don’t remind her of the past,” The doctor advised An Qinyan, Original An Xiulan’s mother.

Behind them, An Xiulan closed her eyes in despair. She had died. And the world that she was seeing before her eyes wasn’t afterlife. As unbelievable as it might sound but she had reincarnated in the body of a sixteen years old young miss of An family.

Coincidentally, both the girls shared the same name and surname. An was Xiulan’s mother’s surname. She and her husband had divorced when her daughter was a baby. She didn’t give her daughter her husband’s last name but her own.

As for how the original Xiulan died, she died in a drunk driving case. Both Xiulan and her mother had a huge fight, resulting in Xiulan getting drunk at a school party and then getting into an accident.

An Qinyan was negotiating an important business deal with a foreign client when she had received the news that her daughter was fatally injured in an accident and was now admitted into the hospital.

Unbeknownst to everyone, the original Xiulan had died in the accident even before she was brought to the hospital while An Xiulan from ancient time had reincarnated into her body.
