chapter 1

As soon as Lin Qingqing came out of the training room, she received a phone call from Xiang Huayang. The voice from the other end of the phone was as low and pleasant as usual. 

"You have a competition tomorrow. Are you nervous?"

Lin Qingqing was filled with happiness as she laughed and talked to him. "Not nervous. When the competition is over, remember to treat me for a meal."

Xiang Huayang seemed to wear some helpless smile; he had always been aloof but his smile contained a kind of doting. "Rest assured, I won’t neglect you." He paused for a moment and then added in a straight tone. "Qingqing, let's have a good talk when the competition is over."

The sudden change in his tone made Lin Qingqing nervous, but she pretended to be natural as she said, "Why? What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Wait until your competition is over."

Lin Qingqing made a sound of acknowledgment. She had already walked to the dormitory door. From afar, she saw a person standing downstairs. She recognized Liang Xin and rushed Xiang Huayang. "Xinxin has come to see me. I'll hang up first."

After a moment of silence, he replied. "Okay, good luck with your competition tomorrow."

Liang Xin came up to her. Lin Qingqing hung up the phone call and greeted her with a smile. 

Liang Xin held a cat-like flannel doll and handed it to her as she walked over. "This lucky doll is for you, remember to hold it in your arm while sleeping tonight and the competition tomorrow will be a success."

Taking it over, Lin Qingqing deliberately looked at the puppet before replying, "It doesn't look very good, but I will reluctantly accept it."

"I think you can do it, you still have a mood to joke. I won't worry about your competition tomorrow." Liang Xin snorted. "En, then I won't accompany you tomorrow."

Lin Qingqing immediately replied, "No, no, you still have to accompany me. I have the confidence only when you support me." She slapped her mouth and added. "My mouth is full of nonsense. This cat is cute and adorable."

Covering her mouth, Liang Xin burst into laughter.

Liang Xin and Lin Qingqing were very good friends, the kind of relationship that wouldn't blush even if they made some excessive jokes.

Liang Xin wasn't only her good friend but also her stepsister, but only two months older than her. In fact, at first Lin Qingqing didn't like her because she hated her (LX's) mother, Liang Feifei, who was the third party in her parents' marriage. Her father and mother divorced because of her, and her mother was also hurt by the woman's intervention. Later, her depression had dragged her body down, and she died a few years after divorcing her father.

After her parents divorced, her sister followed her mother, and she who was still in junior middle school at that time was assigned to her father. Her father married soon after, and Liang Xin was the daughter of Liang Feifei and her ex-husband.

At first, she looked at Liang Xin in disgust, the same way she looked at Liang Feifei. Later, seeing Liang Xin being beaten by her own mother, she realized that the girl was also a victim of this marriage, and they were equally disgusted with this marriage. So, the both of them who were in the same boat soon became very good friends.

Over the years, they supported and encouraged each other in a family that didn't look like home. In addition, both of them learned music from an early age, so they had a lot of common topics. What's more, they were even admitted to the same school of music.

Since they had the same hobbies and were a family, she and Liang Xin would always have endless topics to talk about. She was also the closest person to her besides her mother and elder sister.

After chatting with Lin Qingqing for a while, Liang Xin returned to the dormitory. Although they were in the same school of music, they studied in different departments, so they weren't in the same dormitory. Liang Xin had to spend half an hour back and forth to give her the gift.

It was almost midnight, and all the roommates had already gone to bed. Lin Qingqing washed up and went to bed. She was probably thinking about tomorrow's competition and forgot the big flannel doll after she carried it in and put it on the table, so she didn't sleep with Liang Xin's lucky doll.

She thought she wouldn't be able to sleep much tonight, oddly enough, she didn't expect to sleep soundly.

...❃ The peeping sun from outside the window made her so uncomfortable that she woke up and subconsciously touched the alarm clock at the head of the bed. But even after groping for a long time, Lin Qingqing didn't find it. She realized something was amiss and adjusting her eyes to the light, she looked at the tabland was immediately startled....

This room wasn't her dormitory but was a bit familiar. This was the room where she lived in her childhood before her parents divorced.

After her parents divorced, her father went to Xiang Hai City to settle down. Since she was assigned to her father, she also moved along with him, only coming back every weekend after she was admitted to the university.

It’s strange. I was obviously in the dormitory, how did I get here?

Sitting up on the bed, Lin Qingqing's head felt painful as if there were needles piercing. She subconsciously touched her forehead and felt a gauze wrapped around it. Puzzled, she hurried up to look into the mirror.

It was true that she was wrapped in gauze around her head... But how did she get hurt? She was fine before she went to bed.

That was true, but she seemed to be much thinner. Although her skin was white, it wasn't the healthy kind of white. It was a bit pale, like malnourished.

Lin Qingqing didn't know what was going on. It was just like a dream, very unreal. As she looked at the familiar but somewhat unfamiliar face in the mirror and doubted whether it was a dream, she caught a glimpse of the clock on the rear wall from the mirror.

The hands pointed to 9:20 a.m. 

Lin Qingqing was suddenly startled. It’s the competition today!

She was still wearing pajamas, so she immediately took them off to find clothes to change. But the clothes in the wardrobe were a little strange; the style was more mature, especially the nightgown hanging in the row- it had lace which wouldn't be something girls her age considered.

However, there was no time to care about it now. She grabbed a suit casually and put it on. Just after changing, she heard a knock at the door. Then her elder sister's voice came... 

"Qingqing, are you awake?"

"I’m up~"

As soon as she spoke, Lin Qingqing was startled by her own voice. What happened? How did my voice become like this? It is so harsh.

She immediately cleared his throat and tried to make a sound: "I ...."

It was still the harsh ugly voice.

She was absolutely shocked... How did this happen? How did my voice become like this?! I’ve to go to the competition today!

At that moment, her elder sister, Lin Zhenzhen pushed the door and entered.

This room wasn't her dormitory but was a bit familiar. This was the room where she lived in her childhood before her parents divorced.

After her parents divorced, her father went to Xianghai City to settle down. Since she was assigned to her father, she also moved along with him, only coming back every weekend after she was admitted to the university.

It’s strange. I was obviously in the dormitory, how did I get here?

It was still the harsh ugly voice.

She was absolutely shocked... How did this happen? How did my voice become like this?! I’ve to go to the competition today!

At that moment, her elder sister, Lin Zhenzhen pushed the door and entered.

Seeing her, Lin Qingqing asked anxiously, "Jiejie*, what is going on? How did my voice become like this? I'm going to take part in the competition. What should I do if my voice is like this? And why am I at home? Why am I not in the dormitory?" She touched her head.

"How did I hurt my head? What the hell is going on?"

[*Jiejie is older sister. LQQ calls her older sis so.]

Lin Zhenzhen's features were somewhat similar to Lin Qingqing's. Both of them were authentic great beauties, but Lin Qingqing's features were more three-dimensional than her sister's. While the elder sister was the kind of graceful and restrained beauty, while the younger one came out as more magnanimous and aggressive.

Lin Zhenzhen was also confused by her words. "What are you talking about? What competition?" She didn't drink early in the morning, she shouldn't be drunken mad. And the look on her face, seemingly on the verge of tears, didn't look like she was messing around with her on purpose either.

Lin Qingqing had no time to investigate now. Since it was too late, she would skip breakfast and eat something later. She tried several times but still had a rough voice. She stomped her foot in frustration. "What should I do?! How can I compete like this?!"

Lin Zhenzhen drew near, held her shoulder with both hands, and asked her softly, "Don't worry, you tell me first, what competition are you going to take part in?"

"Pineapple TV Talent Show! It’s held once every three years, and now is in the Beicheng competition area. If I miss it, I’ll have to wait three years. But I will be twenty-three then. If I can become famous, I want to become famous earlier. I have done so much preparation for this competition. I don't want to wait for another three years... but my voice, how did my voice become like this?!" Lin Qingqing hurriedly said.

How could she sing when her voice was this harsh? She burst into tears.

Lin Zhenzhen stared at the girl before her... this was her sister, no would know better... she knew that the tears and agitation were not fake. After a moment’s thought, she asked, "Tell me, what is the date today?"

"May 23rd. The qualifying round starts on May 23rd, I remember very clearly." Before this, she had successfully cleared the second round of the competition, and today’s qualifying round was the key to determine whether she’d succeed or not. She mustn't miss it!

"Which year?" Lin Zhenzhen asked again.

"2013." Lin Qingqing was very sure.

She spoke with absolute certainty, her gaze was clear and bright and she didn't look insane. However, seeing how sure she was Lin Zhenzhen was even more surprised, she gazed at her in stupefaction. It took a long time before she took a deep breath and said word by word, "Qingqing, it is 2018 now."

Lin Qingqing paused for a moment, then she was even more flustered. "Jiejie, why are you playing such a joke with me at this time?"

Lin Zhenzhen didn't speak but directly led her out, pulling her through the busy lobby outside the restaurant and standing at the entrance of the restaurant. At the door, the words 'Peace Restaurant' was written in calligraphy. This was the restaurant founded by their grandfather. (T/N: I don't know if it is restaurant or hotel, but since I read as the story goes, I chose restaurant- the word is 饭店 - fàndiàn)

But at the moment they stood at the door, the cold wind howled outside, and flakes of snow seemed to fall from the sky. She hadn't noticed back then because of the heater in the room. She thought it was still summer, so she was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts. As soon as she came out and was blown by the cold wind, Lin Qingqing shivered.

The billboards on the street were full of signs welcoming 2018, and Lin Qingqing soon found that several tall buildings had come up around the restaurant. The familiar streets had changed a lot but only the Peace Restaurant still maintained the old street style of Beicheng.

"See?" Lin Zhenzhen said to her.

Lin Qingqing was still in disbelief...

How could- how could it be? I was still in the dormitory yesterday, I was still preparing for the competition... How did I wake up in 2018?
