Chapter 2 - Rebirth
Wen Xinya had a splitting headache. She unmindfully pressed her hands against her forehead and could feel the numbing effects of alcohol gushing into her brain. After jolting her head twice with great strength, she started to regain some consciousness. As if she was in a nightmare, her entire world was being torn apart between the deafening DJ music in a devilish beat and the flickering disco light.
Her head was heavy with dizziness, and she could feel her stomach cramping. Covering her mouth with her hands, she dashed into the public washroom like a madwoman and threw up all the food inside her together with some gastric fluid and bile. Feeling much better after, Wen Xinya turned on the tap and splashed the running water onto her face, trying to keep herself awake.
Feeling refreshed, a question sprung to her mind—wasn’t she already dead?
Raising her head slowly from the basin, she could see a pretty, young face from the reflection in the mirror. It was not covered in thick layers of cosmetics. No eye bags or eye rings could be found beneath the pair of beautiful eyes. The pair of eyes had sparkles and brightness in them, instead of being dull and colorless caused by long-term alcohol abuse. There was also a waist length of soft, silky hair attached to the pretty face, rather than a set of bright red spiky hair.
It was like time had been reversed and everything was back to the beginning!
Wen Xinya touched her face with trembling hands. The baby-soft skin on her face belonged to a young teenage girl.
She darted out of the washroom recklessly. Seeing a waiter passing by with a tray in his hands, she grabbed him by the arm and asked, “Which year are we in right now? What is the date today?”
