Chapter 71
Chang Zhiyuan had sent messages to the group, which the two people saw.
Xu Xiuhe expressed his default and remained silent.
A moment later, Xue Jingrui sent a message [Okay, got it.]
Chang Zhiyuan was finally satisfied, [Brother, the road ahead is long and arduous. Not having feelings now doesn't mean you won't have them in the future. It's a long journey, you have to try. Look at Xiuhe, he's always talking about his wife and kids these days, isn't that great? Who knows, maybe by this time next year, you'll be able to hold your son too.]
When Xu Xiuhe saw that Chang Zhiyuan had cued him, he replied [Sleeping with my wife and child, you guys chat slowly.] Then he turned off his phone, lay down, and waited for Shen Yin to come in.
[Look at this guy, showing off again.]
Xue Jingrui [.]
After taking a shower, Shen Yin returned to the bedroom, only to see Xu Xiuhe lying next to Zhengzheng with his eyes closed. Since they had already slept in the same bed twice, she couldn't be so petty as to make herself sleep on the couch, right? Besides, they each slept on their own side, so it wasn't a big deal. Thinking this, Shen Yin slept on the other side of Zhengzheng.
Xu Xiuhe only felt at ease when he saw Shen Yin lying down. He secretly opened his eyes, looked at the mother and son, and then closed his eyes again.
The night became quiet again. Zhengzheng didn't sleep well and liked to snuggle up to people. Coincidentally, Shen Yin also liked to sleep snuggled up to Zhengzheng during this period. As a result, the two moved in the same direction.
Xu Xiuhe was squeezed to the edge of the bed again, in a position where he could fall off with just one turn. With no choice, Xu Xiuhe got up and slept next to Shen Yin. He was afraid that Shen Yin would go and snuggle up to Zhengzheng again, and what if Zhengzheng fell to the ground? That wouldn't do.
He pulled Shen Yin into his embrace, holding her in his arms. Sure enough, Zhengzheng moved a bit toward Shen Yin's side. Now no one would be squeezed off the bed.
But after a while, Xu Xiuhe regretted it. What sin had he committed? The bundle in his arms was soft and gave off a wonderful scent. As a grown man, he simply couldn't resist.
Shen Yin was dreaming, but this time her dream wasn't a nightmare. In the dream, she saw a girl, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with her hair tied in a high ponytail, sitting in a classroom.
For some reason, Shen Yin felt that this girl gave her a strange feeling, as if she had never met her before, yet she seemed so familiar. The girl in the dream was full of collagen and exuded the energy of youth.
It wasn't until the girl wrote in her diary, "Today is the 30th day of Yinyin's transmigration. I wonder if my dad and mom miss me. Although my current dad and mom are very good to me, I still miss them a little."
It was then that Shen Yin realized that this girl was the original Shen Yin, who had transmigrated to another world. But her appearance, expression, and mentality didn't seem quite like the original host's. After all, the original host had been in so much pain before. Shen Yin was puzzled and moved a little in Xu Xiuhe's embrace.
Then the dream continued, and the girl wrote another passage: "It's so strange, why did I end up here? I was taking an exam, felt sleepy and took a nap, but when I opened my eyes again, I was in an unfamiliar classroom with people I didn't know, and I had changed from Shen Yin to Tou Yu."
So the original host had also transmigrated to another world like her? Then what about the original host's memories? Why was it that she had fallen asleep during an exam and gone over? Shen Yin didn't understand, but seeing the original host's radiant smile, she suddenly felt at peace. She wanted to learn more, but it was as if a mysterious force suddenly pulled her out of the dream.
Shen Yin opened her eyes and her consciousness became clear. She felt that something was amiss, why was she in Xu Xiuhe's embrace, and so close too? She clearly felt something poking her thigh, and two seconds later she suddenly understood what it was. It seemed that all the TV shows, books, and paperbacks she had studied before weren't in vain.
Shen Yin hurried to struggle and get up.
"Don't move." Xu Xiuhe could no longer hold back, but it wasn't time yet. Shen Yin hadn't accepted him yet, so he got up and went into the bathroom.
Shen Yin lay in bed for a long time, dazed. She opened her phone - it was 12:30 AM.
Shen Yin also got up and walked into the living room, drank some water, and then sat on the couch. She needed to sort out her thoughts, not only about Xu Xiuhe's reaction just now, but also about the dream she had.
Either of these things was enough to keep her awake tonight. She had to calm down.
More than half an hour later, Xu Xiuhe came out of the bathroom but didn't see Shen Yin in bed.
He panicked. His hair was still dripping wet, but he left the bedroom and saw Shen Yin sitting dazed on the couch. Xu Xiuhe walked over and said softly, "Sorry, I scared you just now. I didn't mean it, it was just a physiological reaction of the body."
Shen Yin turned her face to look at Xu Xiuhe. He was wearing pajamas with a serious expression, his hair dripping water.
"Do you know where the former Shen Yin went?" Shen Yin asked calmly.
Xu Xiuhe was shocked. What was going on? Was it possible that he had just scared Shen Yin into some kind of mental disorder and she was now talking nonsense? Xu Xiuhe's expression changed from serious to suspicious.
Seeing that Xu Xiuhe didn't speak, Shen Yin continued, "Sit down first."
Xu Xiuhe sat down upon hearing this.
"We used to sit like this in the living room too. I said I wasn't the former Shen Yin anymore, and you said you knew. How did you know?" Shen Yin asked.
"You've recovered to normal," Xu Xiuhe replied honestly.
"Hmm, there are indeed many things that can't be explained by science, like why I ended up here."
Xu Xiuhe still didn't know what to say and just looked at Shen Yin silently. He seemed to understand that Shen Yin's meaning of "I'm not the former Shen Yin" wasn't the same as his understanding.
Xu Xiuhe remained relatively calm, after all, Shen Yin's dream was predictive. "So where are you from?"
"Oh, I'm from a dynasty that never existed in history. You might say it's incredible, but if I had to name a period, it would probably be the Song Dynasty. Our history is the same as the Song Dynasty, but there's no record of our Dasheng Dynasty in history."
Xu Xiuhe was very shocked, and then fear followed. He was afraid that the person in front of him would leave at any time, disappear from his sight at any moment.
"Will you leave here?" Xu Xiuhe asked in a trembling voice.
"Do you know how I got here?"
Xu Xiuhe shook his head.
"I was originally the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family, destined to live a carefree life. But my stepmother thought I would hinder her path, so she planned to marry me off to a prince 21 years older than me. I didn't want that, so I tried to force my father to refuse by attempting suicide. I chose to jump into a lake. I had arranged for someone to rescue me, but it turned out that the person meant to rescue me was working for my stepmother all along."
