Chapter 969 - 374: My Sister Was Reborn (Part 18)
Sub-quests won’t affect the main quest?
Failure won’t deduct points?
But success comes with special rewards?!
Sounds quite appealing.
He Tiantian admitted, she was tempted.
Moreover, this quest brought her directly in touch with painting.
It gave He Tiantian a brand new sensation and experience.
Although previously He Tiantian had drawn a "Cheng Chen’s Painting" from the Treasure Box and studied this skill in the learning space.
But He Tiantian had never truly used it.
This time, in the novel world, she lost her memory and believed deep down that she was the real "He Tiantian".
She had both "Cheng Chen’s Painting" and the "Talent Blessing Card" cheat, allowing her to enter the realm of painting.
And when she devoted herself wholeheartedly and practiced diligently, she genuinely developed a deep interest in this art.
He Tiantian mastered many skills, but most were for survival needs, just a means to an end.
This time was different, He Tiantian truly loved painting.
If she could achieve something in her beloved field, bring glory to the nation, and be remembered in art history, that seems quite good.
"...Alright, then I’ll give it a try!"
He Tiantian made up her mind and slowly said to Student Xiao D.
"Okay, Tiantian, I knew it, you’re the best!"
Student Xiao D flattered He Tiantian while happily helping her take on the sub-quest.
"Tiantian? Tiantian?! What’s wrong? Why are you spacing out?"
He Tianxin was driving and called her sister several times without a response.
Originally, He Tianxin thought her sister was asleep, but at a red light, she turned her head to look carefully at the person in the passenger seat and discovered that the girl was staring blankly with eyes open.
She reached out and pushed He Tiantian’s shoulder, calling continuously.
He Tiantian snapped back to reality, suppressing the mixed emotions brought by regaining her memory.
"Sis! I’m fine!"
He Tiantian laughed it off, vaguely brushing off the situation.
"As long as you’re fine." He Tianxin breathed a sigh of relief, thinking her sister was having a strange moment again.
They were almost home, so the sister better not cause any trouble.
The green light turned on, and He Tianxin started the car again.
He Tiantian continued to lean her head against the car window, her peripheral vision observing He Tianxin, but her mind couldn’t help returning to this quest.
This novel world was originally a top-grade rebirth story.
Sadly, the novel caught a virus, and that virus was none other than He Tianxin sitting beside her.
Oh, no, to be precise, the virus was not He Tianxin herself, but her "rebirth".
In the original novel, He Tiantian was a top-grade giant baby and a loafing parasite.
She was selfish, willful, lazy, and favored shortcuts.
She lied about "painting" to shirk responsibilities and live in comfort, almost squandering the family fortune, making her sister a Helping-Sister Demon, and causing her parents to toil away in their old age.
In the end, her sister’s own family was torn apart, and she herself met a tragic end.
Her real mother and father? One worked themselves to death from exhaustion, and the other died from heartbreak.
Of course, as the main culprit, He Tiantian didn’t have a good ending.
She pretended to be a giant baby every day, and over ten or twenty years, really turned into a giant baby incapable of self-care.
After her sister and parents passed away, with no one to care for her, she ended up starving to death at home.
It was the neighbors who noticed the smell, leading to the discovery.
Even after death, He Tiantian became the subject of gossip due to her bizarre cause of death, and many families used her as a cautionary tale.
He Tiantian: ...
She couldn’t find peace even in death, truly pitiful.
After her death, He Tiantian didn’t reincarnate or wander the human world as a ghost.
Incredibly, she was reborn in her senior year of high school.
This was the turning point in her life and the crucial moment when the He Family shifted from prosperity to decline.
He Tiantian kept the lessons from her past life in mind and didn’t want to starve to death again.
Although she still wanted to take shortcuts, she didn’t dare to be as selfish and lazy as in her past life.
She still chose painting.
However, the experiences from her past life weren’t entirely useless.
While He Tiantian lacked talent, she had been involved in the art world for over twenty years, learning a thing or two.
She also broadened her horizons and gained some insights into future techniques.
