Chapter 18: Reunion
Li Feng's footsteps echoed softly through the streets of the small town, his heart filled with a mixture of excitement and unease. This town, a place once so familiar to him, now carried a faint air of strangeness. Through Rebirth, he had returned to the year 1880, back to his twenty-year-old self, back to a time before anything had happened.
He first headed to his former home, a humble wooden cottage. Standing before the threshold, he looked at the weathered wooden door as countless memories welled up in his mind. He thought of his parents, his childhood, and those carefree days.
Pushing the door open, he stepped inside. Everything within was just as he remembered: modest yet brimming with warmth. He saw his mother busy with her chores and caught sight of his youthful father. They both looked so young and full of vitality.
"Mother, I'm home," Li Feng said softly.
His mother paused, looking at him with eyes full of surprise and joy. "Feng'er, why are you back? Didn't you go to the city?"
Li Feng smiled and replied, "I'm back. I came back through Rebirth."
A look of confusion crossed his mother's face, but she didn't press him. Instead, she pulled Li Feng into a tight embrace. Her tears fell upon his shoulder as her words overflowed with gratitude and delight. "Feng'er, you're finally back. We've been waiting for you."
Deeply moved, Li Feng gently stroked his mother's hair. He knew he must cherish everything before him, alter his destiny, and make this family's life better.
Early the next morning, after getting up, Li Feng decided to visit his former teacher. Walking through the town's streets, he looked at the familiar sights, his heart stirred with emotion.
He arrived at the teacher's home, a modest brick house. He knocked on the door, and when it opened, he saw that familiar face—the teacher who had once offered him endless care and guidance.
"Teacher, I'm back," Li Feng said with emotion.
The teacher looked at him, surprise and joy filling his eyes. "Feng'er, why are you back? Didn't you go to the city?"
Li Feng smiled and replied, "I'm back. I came back through Rebirth."
The teacher looked puzzled, but rather than questioning him further, he grasped Li Feng's hand firmly. His words were full of concern and anticipation. "Feng'er, you're finally back. I hope you seize this opportunity to change your destiny."
Gratitude filled Li Feng's heart. He knew his Rebirth was not just for himself, but for those who had once cared for and helped him. He resolved to study hard, become an accomplished person, and make everyone proud of him.
Leaving his teacher's house, Li Feng began wandering around the town. He saw his friends; they all looked young and full of life. He walked over, chatted with them, and shared his experiences and insights.
His friends were quite surprised, yet they didn't mock Li Feng; instead, they were genuinely happy for him. They knew he was a courageous person who dared to face his past and pursue his dreams.
Li Feng's Rebirth had not only changed his own destiny but also touched the people around him. He began helping those in need and caring for the overlooked. His good deeds and generosity made him a hero in the town, and his name was passed on from lip to lip.
Li Feng knew his Rebirth was a miracle, and he was determined to cherish this opportunity, using his own strength to change the world. He began studying hard, meeting all sorts of people, and learning how to get along with others and handle various challenges.
He grew clever and resourceful, earning the recognition and appreciation of more and more people. His success was not solely his own doing, but also the result of the support and encouragement of those around him.
Li Feng's Rebirth helped him rediscover the meaning and value of life. He began to enjoy every single day and cherish every moment. Knowing his Rebirth was a gift, he resolved to dedicate his life to brightening the lives of others.
