Chapter 1

A nauseatingly sour stench rushed into her nostrils, causing the unconscious girl's eyebrows to wrinkle tightly. There was also a spicy taste in her mouth, accompanied by lewd laughter.

The bald old man trembled with excitement as he reached out to the girl, trying to unbutton her top, his flushed red face and thick neck showing his arousal.

An ZhiXia suddenly opened her eyes to see the man grinning, baring his rotten yellow teeth as he tried to kiss her. The disgust was so extreme that she nearly threw up.

Seeing that she was awake did not scare the old man at all, it actually excited him more. "Little darling, it's good that you're awake. It's better than being a dead fish with no vigor."

The old man lunged at An ZhiXia, but she kicked him hard in the chest, knocking him flat on his face.

This familiar scene inevitably reminded her of the tragic scene before her death.

An ZhiXia, who had just turned eighteen, was sold by her parents to an old widower in the deep mountains for twenty dollars.

Without even consulting her, they had drugged her. When she woke up, she saw an old man groping her.

Resisting led to An ZhiXia being strangled to death by the old man. After her death, her body was dismembered and buried in the mountains.

Perhaps because she died such an unjust death, her soul did not dissipate. Instead, it floated back to her original home, only to find out that her death had been premeditated all along.

She heard her adoptive parents discussing, "Don't worry, I asked around for that man on purpose. He's ugly and vicious. His former wife was beaten to death by him. That wretched girl Xiao Cao already has a weak constitution. She definitely won't last more than a few days before she's dead. Then no one will know what we did... MeiYun can properly become the precious daughter of the family..."

An ZhiXia was still called Xiao Cao at the time. It was not until decades later when her fourth brother figured out the truth and came here, that she was given the name An ZhiXia. By then, her body had long decayed with no one knowing where the pieces were scattered. Her brother could only grab a handful of soil from the deep mountains and make a symbolic grave for her, and give her a proper name.

To understand An ZhiXia's background, one has to go back eighteen years.

In 1952, the wife of the Gao family had difficulties giving birth, so she was sent to the next village over to the midwife's home to deliver the baby. Coincidentally, the midwife's daughter had a miscarriage from falling over at her own home. The two women gave birth at the same time - one was from an impoverished rural family, the other had married into a family with public employment in the city, the difference in their circumstances was huge.

So Mrs. Gao devised a plan to switch her newborn daughter for the other family's newborn twin girls.

And so, An MeiYun, who should have been a rural girl, became the precious daughter of the city family. Meanwhile, An ZhiXia, who should have had a good life, became the wild grass "Xiao Cao Gao" in this little village.

Originally, the Gao couple only favored boys over girls, and did not mistreat her too badly. But two years ago, when they reconnected with An MeiYun, and An ZhiXia grew to resemble her birth mother more over the years, the Gaos became worried their secret would be exposed. So they began abusing An ZhiXia, not allowing her to leave the house, and finally directly sold her off to her death in the deep mountains.

Because she was unwilling to die, An ZhiXia's spirit followed An MeiYun for decades after her death, and heard with her own ears An MeiYun saying she was reborn. In her previous life, An ZhiXia's true identity was exposed so the An family took her back. Burdened by guilt over An ZhiXia, An MeiYun could only lower her status and be oppressed by An ZhiXia for a lifetime.
