Reversed Life: Chapter 22 - Forget It, Maybe I Just Shouldn’t Have This Sister Anymore

Chapter 22: Forget It, Maybe I Just Shouldn’t Have This Sister Anymore
 
In that instant, Mu Song’s mind completely short-circuited.
 
His gentle, mild-mannered, slender, quiet, honest older sister — the sister most commonly seen hugging foreign-language textbooks and memorizing vocabulary —
 
was currently charging through a crowd swinging a wooden stick.

After finally finding the rice, Qiao Yuanshan washed his hands clean and refused Luo Meisheng’s offer to help. Instead, he squatted in front of the stove with his phone in hand, searching—
 
“Is porridge good for colds and fevers?”
 
“Will sick kids recover faster if they drink porridge?”
 
Following one of the search results, he ended up on a parenting forum. There, he found a comment saying that people with fevers usually have no appetite. Plain porridge might be good for the body, but it wasn’t appetizing. The commenter then enthusiastically described a folk-recipe porridge that was a bit troublesome to make but incredibly beloved by her sick child, going on and on about it.

‘Trust and affirmation, huh…’
 
Qiao Nan parked the car outside the urban village, still some distance away from the Mu family home. Then he turned off the engine, opened the sunroof, and stared blankly at the stars overhead.
 
He pulled out a cigarette pack, took one cigarette out, held it between his lips for a while, then removed it and fiddled with it in his fingers. Before long, the slender little thing snapped cleanly into two pieces between his fingertips.

The ordinary-looking car, kind of wimpy in appearance, slid into the starting position. The spectators gathered at the starting line immediately burst into commotion—The racing event Guan Ziming had organized seemed pretty large-scale. Even though plenty of people had already dispersed to different bends and the finish line, the place was still as noisy as a marketplace.
 
Qiao Nan was getting seriously annoyed by the noise, so he simply rolled the windows up. The inside of the car instantly became much quieter. He glanced at Mu Xiangxiang in the passenger seat, who was squinting at her phone. “Hey, what are you doing?”

On the way there, Mu Xiangxiang had been worrying about how to handle the party and had asked Qiao Nan for advice. In response, he’d merely given her a dismissive sneer with absolutely no useful content whatsoever. Yet less than three minutes after arriving, she understood exactly why he’d been so confident.
 
At first, her thinking had been this: Qiao Nan had obviously been incredibly popular at Yingcheng. If too many unavoidable social interactions came up at the party and she accidentally said the wrong thing, even a single sentence could lead to unforeseen disaster.
 
The truth, however, was that although most people at the party really were staring at her, aside from those ever-present gazes, not! a! single! person! came! over! to! start! a! conversation!

Chapter 17: Move Aside! Sister Nan is About to Flirt with Girls!
 
Saturday was the day of Gao Yan’s birthday party.
 
Mu Xiangxiang got up unusually early for it. After waking, she sat on the bed in a daze for a while. Weighing whether to review vocabulary words or pick out clothes, she chose the latter without hesitation.
 
After much effort, she found a matching outfit hanging in the corner of the walk-in closet under a dust cover—something its owner clearly rarely wore. Once dressed, she checked the gift Qiao Nan had handed over to her earlier. The moment she straightened up, the nervousness in her chest honestly felt even stronger than when she first discovered she and Qiao Nan had swapped bodies.

The pitch-black motorcycle shot forward like an arrow loosed from a bow, drawing startled stares from countless pedestrians as it tore through the modern streets crowded with high-rises before finally stopping in a narrow alley near the urban village.
 
This place was still quite a distance from the Mu family home—about an eight-minute walk. Every time Qiao Nan had to switch to “Route 11” here—walking on his own two legs—he found it incredibly annoying.
 
But when he thought of Father Mu, who spoke so softly and weakly it seemed a gust of wind could knock him over, he still got off the bike with a dark expression.

No one spoke. Very quickly, both Mu Xiangxiang and Cao Wei noticed the bruised, disheveled state of their respective friends, and the atmosphere froze.
 
The one who finally broke the silence was, unsurprisingly, Qiao Nan. Standing at the very front with a steel pipe in hand, his gaze shifted back and forth between the two people opposite him before stopping on the oversized jacket Mu Xiangxiang was wearing. His eyelid twitched slightly. “…Come here.”

Qiao Nan rode like a hurricane. Halfway there, he stopped by an empty lot and went in to grab two discarded steel pipes.
 
Yan Zhiyang’s side moved quickly as well. He had been ranking in an internet café with a bunch of friends, and the moment Guo Zhi—who had a direct grudge against He Pengcheng—heard the news, he practically exploded. Seven or eight young men threw aside their mice and bolted out of the café.

Mu Xiangxiang stared at the string of numbers for a full five minutes without blinking.
 
Ever since that previous text message informing her of a one-hundred-thousand-yuan transfer a few days ago, this was the second time in her life she had come into contact with such an enormous sum of money. Even though it was only a virtual string of digits, it still deeply shocked her.
 
And when they had sorted through each other’s belongings before, hadn’t Qiao Nan said this was merely the account he used for receiving pocket money from home?

Mu Xiangxiang vaguely felt that she had dreamed of something. In the dream, her parents were just like before, coming into her room after she had fallen asleep to tuck in her blanket.
 
The longing lingered so deeply that even after waking up, she remained dazed for a moment. Then she turned to look at the alarm clock, her gaze pausing for two seconds on the German self-study textbook resting quietly on the bedside table—if she remembered correctly, that book had originally been beside her pillow.
 
She remembered now. The person crouching by her bed and patting her head last night should indeed have been Qiao Nan’s older brother, Qiao Rui. She remembered calling him “big brother,” and he had not denied it.

Chapter 11: The Cold and Intimidating Eldest Young Master of the Qiao Family
 
On the first day of the new term, every subject teacher without exception was startled to varying degrees.
 
The calmer ones were fine—they simply taught more carefully and earnestly than usual as they faced an unprecedented level of orderliness from their normally mischievous students. A few of the more emotional teachers even had choked voices when saying goodbye after class.
 
Compared to people who had always followed the rules, a prodigal turning over a new leaf always seemed more precious.
 
Another teacher left the classroom with reddened eyes, and the students of Class 9 all felt a little uneasy inside. These kids from what was broadly labeled the “bad students’ class” had long since grown used to standing on the opposite side of their families and teachers. Over time, rebellion had become a protective coloring they themselves no longer even noticed.

The scene inside the office looked like judges at a talent competition.
 
The director of discipline, who still hadn’t figured out what was happening, scratched the back of his head. “Huh? What’s going on here…?”
 
Why had everyone suddenly sat down?
 
Principal Sun stared ahead without speaking. In his numb gaze, the handsome young student, after seeing them all seated, had calmly walked over to the water dispenser and started rummaging around. A moment later, he found four paper cups.

Chapter 9: A Model Student Who Respects Her Teachers and Values Proper Conduct! Her Morals are Absolutely First-rate!
 
From the fragmented bits and pieces Yan Zhiyang told her, Mu Xiangxiang pieced together a thoroughly melodramatic story.
 
Basically, there was a boy in Class 2 named Bai Yingjie who liked a girl in his class. The girl rejected his confession, saying she didn’t want to date before university—but then turned around and personally delivered a love letter to Qiao Nan instead.
 
No one knew where Bai Yingjie heard about it, but he completely lost it. Not only had he repeatedly tried to make trouble for them throughout the previous semester, but during winter break, he apparently got further provoked and, dead drunk, actually came looking for a fight.

“Where is she?! Didn’t you say she was locked inside the stall?!”
 
“She jumped out the window? This is the second floor! Who do you think you’re fooling?!”
 
“Who even is Mu Xiangxiang?! You girls have been yelling about her this whole time, but where is she? Isn’t Fang Lingli the only one downstairs?!”
 
“You kids are getting more outrageous by the day! No sense of boundaries in your pranks at all! You even dragged a teacher into this! I’m definitely going to have a serious talk with your parents!”

At that moment, the level of shock Fang Lingli felt went far beyond simple fear.
 
For several short breaths, her mind went completely blank. An overwhelming sense of violation and panic gripped her throat like an invisible hand. Reflected deep within her pupils was that face whose very smile radiated danger. And the first thought that flashed through her mind after she came back to herself was—Run!

Chapter 6: The Innocent Delinquent Girl Fell in Love with Me
 
After that shy female class committee member fled in panic with the homework in her arms, Class 1 of the second year fell into a brief silence.
 
Then it was like a drop of cold water falling into hot oil—

Chapter 5: The School Tyrant! No Matter Where He Goes, He’s Still the School Tyrant!
 
Lantern Festival morning.
 
It was as if the entire city had awakened overnight.
 
Uncleared firecracker scraps and piles of snow were heaped messily along the roadside, trampled into muddy slush by the crowds that had suddenly reappeared after more than ten quiet days. The breakfast stalls that had gone back home for the New Year were all back in business, especially around the schools, where the rich smell of fried food filled the air everywhere.

Chapter 4: The Model Student Girl’s Short Hair 
 
The Mu family’s living conditions were terrible. They didn’t even have blackout curtains on the windows—just an ordinary cloth curtain hanging there.
 
So before six in the morning, Qiao Nan was already awakened by the daylight streaming in from outside.
 
Sitting on the bed, he could clearly hear the noise of wheels and footsteps grinding across the ground outside. With his hair even messier after a night’s sleep, he once again became vividly aware of how drastically his life had changed.

After Mu Xiangxiang’s father carried Qiao Nan’s backpack into the room, he went back out, seemingly to continue the handicraft work he hadn’t finished earlier.
 
That gave Qiao Nan a chance to escape his awkward situation—for the moment, at least. He had been getting his head patted every few minutes just now, and it was driving him crazy.
 
But as he watched the door gently close, sitting on the edge of the bed, he suddenly felt a strange sense of emptiness.
