Chapter One: Rebirth in Another Body

ht, lowering his head to tug at the IV needle on his wrist. "I want to leave here! Don't stop me!""You just fell from the 10th floor, your condition is extremely critical, and you absolutely cannot le..."Bang!"

The heavy thud of the landing shattered the pre-dawn silence. Soon, the shouts of joggers rang out, "Someone jumped from a building! Call 120 quickly!"

An ambulance arrived with its sirens blaring, and a doctor began providing emergency medical treatment on the spot. A crowd of onlookers, mostly residents from the neighborhood, gathered around to watch.

"Isn't this Shi Chen who was chased and scolded down two streets yesterday How could he think of jumping off a building"

"I bet he got beaten up again Oh well, he's such a pathetic son-in-law. His wife ignores him, and he has to serve his crazy father-in-law every day."

"Poor child, orphaned by her father's death and having a mother who remarried, he is even more despised as a son-in-law than others. Perhaps his death could be seen as a release."

"Make way, please make way! We need to escort the injured person to the hospital."

The doctor in a white coat, after performing CPR, directly carried Shi Chen, who was being talked about by the crowd, onto a stretcher and into an ambulance.

The stretcher, draped in white cloth, was pushed forward. A slightly thin arm hung from the edge of the stretcher, lifeless and devoid of any movement.

"Has the family arrived Come with us to the hospital." The paramedics shouted, pushing back the crowd of onlookers. "His father's crazy, and his wife is rich. She's Mu Yunbing, a well-known entrepreneur in our city of Yu. We just don't know if she'll pay for this."

"That's right, when Shi Chen was with his wife, she wasn't happy about it. He hasn't come back to live here in the past two years, I guess he can't let go of this big burden."

Even I wouldn't be happy about this. Mu Yunbing is a wealthy CEO, after all. She would only agree to be with Shi Chen if she was blind. If it weren't for Shi Chen taking care of her crazy father with all his heart and soul, he'd probably have been kicked out long ago.

"It's a matter of life and death, please contact them and have them come to the city hospital as soon as possible." The doctor in charge of emergency care frowned, apparently not interested in these family matters. He waved his hand, signaling the ambulance to leave.

Soon, the rhythm of high heels echoed through the hospital corridor.

Upon the shoe sole, a pair of slender and tall stands support a graceful beauty.

The newcomer stood there with an imposing presence. Although he was handsome, a layer of frost covered his face, and there was an aura of aloofness about him that kept people at bay. He also seemed impatient.

She is Shi Chen's wife in name, Mu Yunbing, a well-known entrepreneur from Yushi.

When Mu Yunbing received a call from her neighbor, she had just woken up from a nap. She was shocked by the news that Shi Chen had jumped from a building and immediately drove to the hospital.

"Doctor, how is he" Mu Yunbing asked faintly, her tone a bit displeased.

"Not optimistic, several times the heart stopped beating, now in intensive care, I suggest you be mentally prepared." The doctor was saying this when the head nurse rushed over, "Doctor! You have to see, the victim who just jumped from a building has woken up and is demanding to be discharged!"

"What How is this possible He fell from the tenth floor, not breaking a bone is already a blessing. How could he have the energy to demand discharge!"

The doctor, who had practiced medicine for many years, had never seen anything like this. He hurried toward the intensive care unit, and Mu Yunbing hesitated for a moment before following him.

In the intensive care unit, Shi Chen, who should have been on his last legs, sat straight, lowering his head to tug at the IV needle on his wrist. "I want to leave here! Don't stop me!"

"You just fell from the 10th floor, your condition is extremely critical, and you absolutely cannot leave the hospital!"

“Yeah, no one could survive a fall from that height. You're just pretending to be okay right now; you could collapse at any moment. Just lie down.”

Two nurses helplessly persuaded Shi Chen. They had long been accustomed to life and death, but they were seeing someone who had fallen from a building wake up so well for the first time.

This person was barely alive when they were brought in.

Shi Chen wouldn't listen, pulled out the instruments and needles in a few moves, stood up and prepared to leave, "I'm fine, I have to go back."

"No, you must stay and observe. Your condition is very serious, and it could trigger..."

"Being verbose, don't I know myself" Shi Chen interrupted the doctor before he could finish his words and walked straight toward the door.

"Slap!"

A crisp sound of slapping echoed, five finger prints immediately appeared on Shi Chen's face. Mu Yun, with a cold face, reprimanded in a low voice, "Enough! Shi Chen, how long do you plan to make a scene!"

A collective gasp filled the room, even Shi Chen was stunned by this sudden strike.

He remembered himself still on the battlefield, bathing in the blood of his enemies, then being attacked from behind by his closest comrade.

The poisoned blade pierced his heart, and he was instantly plunged into darkness by an unbearable pain.

When he opened his eyes again, he found himself trapped in this frail body, inheriting all the memories of the original owner.

Shi Chen, male, twenty-five years old, is the most despised son-in-law in Yu City. He is cowardly and timid, often being ridiculed and beaten in public.

Although Shi Chen couldn't understand how he, a deceased soul, could be reborn, faced with the reality, he had to accept it.

It was the very thought that someone would dare to slap him, a man who had once commanded the battlefield, that left Shi Chen looking utterly humiliated. He stared at Mu Yunbing with an expression of disbelief and anger.

It seems the original owner was truly pathetic. The person before me is undoubtedly a top-notch adult and should be properly cared for by me. It's unbelievable that the original owner hasn't even held their hand!

"Why aren't you speaking You good-for-nothing! I must have been possessed back then to agree to marry you!" Mu Yunbing glared at Shi Chen with frustration, "I see you're not going to die. Since you don't want to stay in the hospital, just go back and don't disgrace yourself here!"

Shi Chen clenched and unclenched his fists, trying to quell the fire in his heart.

You, who used to be a legendary warrior, are now a pathetic son-in-law!

This huge gap he couldn't bridge, he coldly retorted to Mu Yunbing, "Since you are not satisfied with this marriage, then get a divorce!"

In Mu Yunbing's impression, Shi Chen had always been a pushover who never fought back or retaliated. He didn't even bother to look at him.

Present-day Shi Chen seems like a completely different person. His slender waist is now straight, and his entire demeanor has changed from timid to possessing a certain masculine air!

Actually, if you look closely, Shi Chen is still quite handsome besides being a little thinner.

Mu Yunbing has hated him for so many years, even if he was handsome, he never paid any attention.

Humph! A good-for-nothing is always a good-for-nothing, what's the point of being handsome It can't be eaten as food!

"Do you think I don't want a divorce from you! If it wasn't for my dad, he wouldn't agree to it, do you think I would put up with this…hmph!"

Mu Yunbing stopped speaking mid-sentence, her face full of disgust. She walked out of the ward with disdain. for this.""That's right, when Shi Chen was with his wife, she wasn't happy about it. He hasn't come back to live here in the past two years, I guess he can't let go of this big burden."Even I wouldn'...
