Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Jiang Hong wore a dark red outfit today. Compared to the other girls, her clothes were a bit more vibrant, but Gu Lingling’s clothes were even brighter than hers today.

So, when the incident happened, Jiang Hong’s first reaction was to run towards Gu Lingling.

And behind her was a wild boar that seemed to have gone mad.

Spring had arrived, and the beasts that originally lived in the mountains would come out searching for food. This wild boar must have done the same.

However, the place where they were digging for wild vegetables wasn’t too close to the deep mountain. Logically, these beasts shouldn’t appear there; Gu Lingling didn’t understand.

”Jiang Hong, watch out, don’t run into a crowd.” A girl not far away shouted with all her might.

Yet, Jiang Hong seemed not to hear, still running towards Gu Lingling with her basket.

This process only lasted less than a minute. Gu Lingling was taking off her outer garment while running in another direction.

But Jiang Hong behind her kept following closely. Wherever Gu Lingling ran, Jiang Hong ran there too.

Finally, Jiang Hong got tired, threw the basket in Gu Lingling’s direction, and then ran in the opposite direction.

For some unknown reason, the wild boar didn’t chase Jiang Hong anymore, but instead frantically chased after Gu Lingling.

”Lingling, be careful!” Liu Yating shouted anxiously, not knowing what to do.

Gu Lingling was about to be caught by the wild boar.

”Oh no, there’s a slope ahead. If she falls down, won’t it...” said a girl from a neighboring village. Her father was a hunter and often took her to the mountains, so she knew a bit about the area.

”No, I have to save Lingling,” Liu Yating said, holding a stick and about to chase after her.

”Yating, going like this is a death wish. We should hurry back and get adults,” a girl in green military gear said, as her family was with the army.

But calling adults now, distant water can’t quench immediate thirst.

”Let go,” Liu Yating said, her eyes bloodshot, glaring at the girl. The girl was frightened and let go of her hand.

Liu Yating had already started running over.

This whole process happened in the blink of an eye, fortunately, Gu Lingling had been exercising diligently since her rebirth. Otherwise, anyone else would have been eaten by the wild boar by now.

However, even then, Gu Lingling felt her stamina dwindling, especially in this forest. Though she ran and dodged, causing the wild boar to occasionally hit trees, it still chased her crazily, refusing to let go.

Damn, what exactly is going on?

Even though Gu Lingling was constantly running, her mind kept spinning with thoughts. She glanced at her red clothes, wondering if that was the reason.

But it shouldn’t be to this extent.

Suddenly, she recalled that earlier, when Jiang Hong and the others arrived, they had complimented her on her beautiful clothes. Jiang Hong had even touched the back of her outfit, looking envious.

At the time, she didn’t think much of it. Reflecting now, everything seemed planned.

But how did she know the wild boar would come?

However, this wasn’t the time to think about it. Since she knew the cause, she quickly decided to ditch the clothes.

Gu Lingling ran while undoing the buttons and took off her outer garment.

”Lingling, don’t!” Liu Yating shouted from behind while chasing.

She then saw Gu Lingling throw her red outer garment far away, and Gu Lingling herself uncontrollably fell forward.

”Lingling!” Liu Yating screamed aloud.

At the moment Gu Lingling fell, she seemed to see a green shadow following her down.
