Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 127: 127: Pig’s Claw

Gu Lingling didn’t have much harvest today. At this time, the wild fruits in the mountains have almost been picked by the nearby villagers or the families of the unit.

Finding a place with good sunlight to read and sunbathe, Gu Lingling waited until it was time before she descended the mountain carrying a bamboo basket.

She didn’t want to stay home, even less did she want to see the faces of Old Mrs. Gu and Gu Juan.

She hadn’t expected to run into Lv Guodong.

As for this person, Gu Lingling’s attitude was that if he doesn’t bother me, I won’t bother him. After all, in her previous life, before she died, she had already avenged herself.

If Lv Guodong didn’t harbor any evil thoughts in this life, she didn’t plan to do anything more.

After being reincarnated, she figured it out. Her past life was confusing and suffocatingly frustrating; if she had a chance to be reborn, she didn’t want to live in hatred every day.

Of course, she would never again be like the soft persimmon she was in her past life, easily manipulated and bullied.

Lv Guodong looked at Gu Lingling in front of him, confused. He had been having a strange dream recently, and the woman in the dream was Gu Lingling.

All other scenes were blurry, but the only clear thing was that in the dream, his gaze towards her was unexpectedly filled with guilt and heartache.

Feeling guilty?

When did Lv Guodong ever have such feelings?

Lv Guodong couldn’t figure it out. For days, he locked himself in his room and saw no one, trying to understand what was going on. But the more he thought about it, the more his head hurt.

Gu Juan had sent him several messages through others. He knew what Gu Juan wanted, but every time he thought about that dream, Lv Guodong’s heart inexplicably felt disgusted.

Driven by some impulse, he ended up in Nanshui Village.

Not seeing Gu Lingling at home, he went to the village entrance to wait for her.

”I... I just wanted to come and see.” Lv Guodong scratched the back of his head and said, clearly Gu Lingling was a level below him and two years younger, yet at this moment seeing Gu Lingling, he felt guilty.

He didn’t even dare to look directly into Gu Lingling’s eyes, as if he owed her something in a past life.

Just wanted to see?

Gu Lingling squinted and sized up Lv Guodong with a glance, wondering if it was an illusion; there seemed to be something different about him today.

But what did it matter? No matter how he was, it had nothing to do with her.

Thinking of this, Gu Lingling nodded faintly, not wanting to have any more interactions with him.

”Gu Lingling...” Lv Guodong didn’t expect Gu Lingling to walk away just like that. He still had a lot to ask her, ”You... I’ll go back and tell my cousin to treat you properly.”

Lv Guodong’s cousin is Wang Meili.

Let Wang Meili treat her well? How laughable did that sound coming from Lv Guodong’s mouth?

Gu Lingling didn’t stop her steps and continued walking forward.

”Gu Lingling, didn’t you hear me?” Lv Guodong, though feeling guilty because of the dream, was being ignored for the first time.

Especially these few years, no one had dared to treat him like this.

Taking several big strides forward, he grabbed Gu Lingling’s arm, ”Stop right there.”

”Lv Guodong, what exactly do you want?” Gu Lingling looked at Lv Guodong coldly, ”Want to hit me?”

In the previous life, every time he got angry, he would hit her.

”I...” Lv Guodong stared blankly at the Gu Lingling in front of him, waves of inexplicable familiarity assaulted his senses.

When did the little girl Gu Lingling become so beautiful?

”Ow... it hurts.” Suddenly, Lv Guodong groaned, ”You... you better let go of me, do you know who I am?”

Let go?

The newcomer coldly smiled and released Lv Guodong’s pig-like paw that was reaching for Gu Lingling.

”Ouch!”

Lv Guodong fell onto his butt with a thud, crying out in pain.

”Next time you dare to grab recklessly, watch out for your pig paws.” A cold voice, cold eyes, colder than the ground.

Lv Guodong shivered until Gu Lingling and that person left. He hadn’t figured out who the hell that was. Better not let him find out.

Next time, he’ll take people with him for revenge!

Gu Lingling... Lv Guodong patted his sore butt, a strong sense of interest appearing on his face.
