Chapter 1003 - The Reborn Young Master’s Pampered Cousin (1)
Chapter 1003 The Reborn Young Master’s Pampered Cousin (1)
Bai Weiwei woke up with a familiar headache and found herself half-leaning on a chair.
At her side was a servant girl with her hair combed into two buns who whispered: “That Qi Chimu has arrived”
Qi Chimu?
Just as she was thinking this, the system’s memories and information came all at once.
【This time, the mission is to obtain Qi Chimu’s love. Target: Qi Chimu. Progress: zero. Time: a year and a half. 】
A year and a half, this period of time was plentiful to an awful degree.
Bai Weiwei pressed her temples as she looked through the messy memories.
This time the mission was a rebirth task.
And the one reborn was Qi Chimu.
Qi Chimu was the original host’s older cousin1
Due to his rough life experience of losing both parents, he had no other choice but to live under the roof of the Bai family’s house. Since he was a child, everyone saw him as a useless mouth2, and he was bullied in every possible way.
However, since the Bai family was facing the downfall of their influential family of officials, but still didn’t give him any less to drink nor any less to eat, what he called bullying was just a children’s fight and a few insults.
But it was not a life-or-death hatred.
The turning point occurred when Qi Chimu was seven years old, when Baiwei Wei’s older brother Bai Chi pulled him along to go fish at the frozen lake.
Bai Chi hit him as he was making fun of him, and with a single foot he kicked him into the freezing water.
Qi Chimu pulled Bai Chi into the frozen lake along with him.
The two children fell into the ice-cold water and it became a life-threatening situation. When they were finally rescued, Bai Chi had already stopped breathing for some time.
And Qi Chimu was able to survive thanks to his robust health.
Bai Chi was the eldest di son of the Bai family, but he died.
And Qi Chimu, this fatherless and motherless young weed3, survived instead.
From that day on, Qi Chimu’s nightmare began.
Everyone in the Bai family, from the young masters and young ladies to the lowest of the servants, mistreated him.
They all believed he had killed Bai Chi.
In the Bai family, Qi Chimu grew up abused and humiliated in every possible way.
When he was 19, he tried every means to get an opportunity to take the imperial examinations, and he became the top scorer.
He then got close to the third prince and helped with create the crown prince’s downfall.
He became the esteemed son-in-law4 of the prime minister.
And the originally decaying family of officials, the Bai family, was destroyed by Qi Chimu for revenge.
All men were put to death by a thousand cuts[5./span>
The women were branded with a criminal mark on their faces and were thrown into the military barracks and forced into prostitution.
When Bai Weiwei reached up to here, her eyebrows wrinkled, having a bad premonition.
The memories went on. Qi Chimu was poisoned to death.
The poison was an awfully rare type. At that time, he returned to the Bai family after becoming the top scorer.
The Bai matriarch already knew he was coming back for revenge.
So she put a special tasteless, colorless drug in his tea.
It wasn’t a poisonous substance, therefore it showed a negative result when poison-tested.
Then the original host Bai Weiwei came in, and her body possessed a natural body fragrance.
This kind of body fragrance was special, as it could trigger the drug in Qi Chimu’s tea, causing him to die from a slow-acting poison.
Seeing till here, Bai Weiwei’s face showed an awful expression of despair facing this kind of logical death.
What the hell was that?
Qi Chimu was killed by her innate body fragrance and a drug she had no frigging idea about.
And then Qi Chimu was reborn… came back!
And the degree of favorability…
【Ding, the male lead’s favorability is -40 affection points.】
Still a little bit less than Du Yanjun?
Bai Weiwei couldn’t help but ask the system: “Before he was reborn, how much favorability did he have towards the original host?
The system glanced over the information, “Oh, initially the favorability was at 20, as a cute young girl, later the girl’s heart grew vicious and she bullied him, so the favorability went down to -10 at once.”
Bai Weiwei: “How come the original host’s ending before the rebirth is pixelated?”
System: “Oh! It’s a new setting for a healthy environment fighting against pornography. Some scenes are not suitable and contain excessive details. ”
Bai Weiwei: “With just a favorability of -10, what kind of scenes are not suitable?”
