Eating Melons Until I Saw News of My Own Death

Tong Yang, on a whim, joined a “melon-eating” group chat that was created two years in the future.

Every day, the group members shared the latest gossip, such as a certain actress dying under mysterious circumstances, the strange disappearance of a wealthy businessman’s son, or a bizarre plane crash that resulted in the deaths of all crew and passengers…

However, as far as Tong Yang knew, the actress was at the peak of her career, receiving rave reviews within the industry. The wealthy businessman’s son was attending an elite private school, under 24-hour bodyguard protection. And the plane that allegedly crashed was still in the testing phase and had never carried any passengers.

At first, she didn’t take it seriously and treated it as a way to pass the time.

Until one day, a sudden thought occurred to her, and she asked if there was any information about her in the future.

The group fell silent for a minute before someone dropped a news link:

“A genius from a humble background, Tong Yang, died ten days before the college entrance exams during a home robbery. Her teacher said she could have been the top science student in the province!”

Tong Yang froze and looked up at the calendar. It was May 28th—exactly ten days before the college entrance exams!

At that very moment, in the quiet of midnight, she heard clear footsteps echoing through the hallway…

The next day, the group chat exploded:

【WTF?! The news link from yesterday is gone!】

【I remember this incident being a huge deal! Even my parents knew about it, but when I asked them, they said they didn’t remember!】

【Is this for real?? Don’t scare me!!】

Tong Yang: “I won’t lie to you, I’m from 2024, and my name is Tong Yang.”

【???】

【WTF, no way??? Two years ago???】

【Guys, our chance to get rich is here! The next lottery numbers are…】

【Wait, hold on, what about the home robbery suspect?】

Tong Yang: “You guess.”
