The Accident

It was dark in a forest. Ying Yue was standing alone and she was pregnant. Suddenly she heard gunshots and her parents screaming. She ran over to the sound and saw her parents were lying on the ground with gunshot wounds. She fell to her knees beside them. Her mother said the last word, "Run".

She heard a laughing sound and looked in front of her. Junjie was standing with one arm around Jingfei's waist. Jingfei had a gun in her hand.

"You couldn't save your parents in this life as well," she said while smirking.

"We will kill you and your baby this time as well," said Junjie.

They were coming closer and Ying Yue was trying to run.

"No, please. What did I ever do to you guys? Why are you two torturing me like this?Why?'' Ying Yue screamed.

Jingfei aimed at her and said, "You are too perfect and kind."

Then she shot.

And then Ying Yue woke up.

"God, it was just a dream. Thank god."

Ying Yue was huffing as she slowly got out of her bed and went towards the table to drink water. It was 3 in the night. Everything was dark outside. She took a cup of water and went towards the window of her room. That was her favorite spot in her past life. A cool breeze and the sound of birds were best from her room of the house.

She stood beside the window and drank her water slowly. The cool breeze cooled her down. But instead of the sound of birds or leaves, she heard Jingfei.

"You just need to pretend to be drunk and crash on them. I will pay for your bailing money as well as your kid's school fees. And a handsome sum of money too." Jingfei paused.

She resumed, "Okay. I will send you their car plate number and the picture of the car. Make sure they suffer huge damage. But not as much as to kill them."

Ying Yue sighed.

'So, she was planning my accident just behind my room. What a fool I was to blindly trust this girl and to think that she would be my dead sister! Plan it. Plan it well. But whatever you do, I will pay you back tenfold.'

Ying Yue went to her bed. Her nightmares continued.

The whole day went as it was supposed to up until leaving from the salon.

"Mom, let's not go back in the car."

"Why?"

"I was thinking that this year we haven't visited the orphanage. Why don't we go now?"

"We go to the orphanage every year on your birthday. But this year due to the accident

we couldn't visit it. So, let's go. I think it's a good idea. But why not in the car?"

"Because I was thinking after I join the competition and win, I won't be able to eat the tasty foods Ms. Angelina makes. So, why don't we go to her restaurant, eat something and walk all the way to the orphanage? That way, I won't gain any weight and I would be able to eat some good foods. What do you think?"

"Not a bad idea. Then I will call Mr. Wu and tell him to go home without us. We can call a cab on the way back from the orphanage."

"Ok, mom." Ying Yue said with an innocent smile.

'In the accident, the truck mainly hit the back seat so Mr. Wu won't have any damages. If I remember correctly, Mr. Wu had some bruises and nothing else in my past life. So it should be fine. Anyway, I need the accident to happen so I can myself catch that truck driver.'

"Mom, your phone is ringing."

"Oh sorry, I didn't notice. I will take the call and wait outside. Take this card and go pay, ok?"

"Ok, mom."

Ying Yue walked to the counter and was waiting to pay when she looked at the TV. There the beautiful and famous MC Wong Mingmei was giving an introduction to the judges of TBOTB this year.

"And with us, we have here Lu Fengmian. He was also the judge of last year. Mr. Lu, what do you think of contestants of this year?"

'I remember the judges. And also their comments. There's no point in listening to it all again.'

She fixed her gaze towards the counter. After she paid and was about to leave, something that Mingmei said caught her attention.

"Now coming to Zheng Kai what do you think about the participants?"

'What the hell! Who is Zheng Kai? I never heard about him in my past life. He definitely wasn't a judge in my past life. Is there another mistake with the system? No, there shouldn't be. Or can there be? I don't know. Let's see what he says.'

"About the participants,....."

At the same time, Ying Yue heard her mom.

"Ying Yue, Mr.Wu is in a car accident. Hurry, we are going to the hospital."

𝙄𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙝𝙤𝙨𝙥𝙞𝙩𝙖𝙡,

Doctor, how is Mr. Wu?"

"He is not severely injured. He just has some bruises. He will be fine within a week. Then we will discharge him."

"Thank you, doctor."

Ying Yue was waiting in the lobby while her mother was filling out the forms and paying the bills.

'Can the future change? No, of course, it can't. Then do I remember it wrong? Maybe Zheng Kai was a judge in my last life and I just don't remember him. I wonder what it is. Anyway, I should focus on the thing at hand. I need to find evidence against Jingfei.'

Ying Yue was lost in thought when someone patted her shoulder from behind.

"Ying Yue, you are alright?" Jingfei said in a shocked tone.

'The real drama begins now.' Ying Yue thought with a little smirk.
