Jiang Nanshu didn’t mention her at all, but Jiang Leyi knew that every word was about her experience.
“Since her family has begun to love her, they will continue to love her. She shouldn’t be anxious; everything will be alright.” Jiang Leyi said earnestly, word by word.
Jiang Nanshu raised her hand and wiped away her tears haphazardly, her voice choked with sobs: “Sister, I had a terrible nightmare on the day I met Chu Muxi.”
Jiang Leyi hugged her, heartbroken: “Tell me, what was it?”
Jiang Nanshu rested her chin on Jiang Leyi’s shoulder and took a deep breath.
“I dreamed that someone else had taken over my body. That person wanted my body. When I was very young, that person drove half of my soul to another world. The remaining half disappeared the winter I turned sixteen.”
“I don’t know which is real and which is fake, but I hate Chu Muxi. The sight of her makes me sick. I dread her presence. To others, I might be talking nonsense, but, Sister, do you believe me?”
Jiang Leyi released Jiang Nanshu, her eyes filled with shock, which then turned into ecstasy.
Looking into Jiang Nanshu’s clear eyes, she seemed to understand.
No wonder Jiang Nanshu was initially intelligent, gentle, kind, and good to people. She liked to eat fried pork, liked to call her ‘sister’, and clung to her in the villa.
Later, after waking up in the hospital due to frostbite, her personality changed. She became stupid and clumsy, showing none of the qualities of a top provincial high school student.
So, the Jiang Nanshu from another world was the real Jiang Nanshu, while the one who had taken over someone else’s body, shouted, and ran back to claim kinship was the imposter?
Although the situation was bizarre and nearly burned out her CPU, she nodded firmly: “Nan Nan, I believe you. I’ll tell my family the truth.”
Jiang Nanshu grabbed her in a panic: “No, they’ll definitely treat me like a monster. Mom didn’t like me to begin with. What if they don’t want me anymore? I’m not going to fight her for anything, Sister. Right now, I just want to be with you, my brothers, and Dad.”
Jiang Leyi grew increasingly angry as she listened.
How dare the newcomer surpass her?
Seeing Jiang Nanshu’s anxiety and panic, she comforted her gently, “Okay, baby, don’t cry. I won’t say anything, okay?”
Jiang Nanshu then smiled through her tears: “Mhm.”
Jiang Leyi added inwardly: No way! She would definitely kick that imposter out of the Jiang family and let everyone in the family know the truth!
“Let’s go in. Filming’s about to begin.”
Jiang Leyi was one of the lead actors, and since the assistant inside was urging her to go, she went first.
Jiang Nanshu walked slowly behind her, wiping away her tears.
Tears are such a useful thing; they can evoke sympathy and pity in others.
Her inner voice, combined with what she had revealed to Jiang Leyi, was enough to keep the time-traveling woman pinned to the ground, preventing her from getting up.
She wasn’t lying.
She had indeed had that dream.
When she was at the Ji house, the time-traveling woman’s hysterical outburst, as if she wanted to tear her apart, and the things she blurted out in her haste, made it clear that the ‘lucky one’ chosen by the time-traveling woman was her.
The time-traveling woman was truly foolish. She played such a good card so badly.
But Jiang Nanshu didn’t want to delve into these details.
Whether she was Jiang Nanshu or not didn’t matter.
Because her goal from beginning to end was never this place.
