Chapter 66 -66: So is this Jiang Nanshu the original Jiang Nanshu?

In memory, Ji Ze was a very bright and cheerful boy.

Not gloomy and silent like he is now, not at all like a high school student.

All of this was thanks to Jiang Nanshu.

She raised an eyebrow, “What he does has nothing to do with me.”

She sighed inwardly: “The original person really didn’t pick her issues well; no wonder everyone around her dislikes her so much. Forget it, I’m not here to curry their favor. Just let it be, bearing the brunt really is quite annoying.”

Jiang Leyi’s face showed shock, staring at Jiang Nanshu for a long time without regaining her composure.

“How can she look at me like that? Could it be that my cold-blooded ruthlessness scared her? Heh heh, everything is under my control.”

After Jiang Nanshu had eaten her fill, she followed suit and left behind a casual remark, “Aren’t you going to chase after that brat? Don’t let anything happen at school; I don’t want to be involved in any trouble.”

Not until Jiang Nanshu’s figure had disappeared

did Jiang Leyi start to piece together the inner voice she had just heard.

What does “original person” mean? What’s meant by “bearing the brunt”?

So within this body, the previous “Jiang Nanshu” truly no longer existed.

Instead, there was a ‘wandering ghost’ from who-knows-where?

But that’s not right.

If she really was a wandering ghost with unknown origins, why would her preferences be so similar to Jiang Nanshu’s from three years ago?

Loving shiny gems all the same, liking the taste of fried crispy meat all the same.

Jiang Leyi felt as though she had stumbled upon a secret that no one else should know.

She walked out of the Jing University canteen, her expression somewhat distant.

Ji Ze approached her anxiously, “Sister Le Yi, did she, did she bully you again?”

Jiang Leyi came back to her senses and gently patted his head, “No, don’t think of her as so bad. She isn’t the type to save just anyone who passes by… The other day in the alley, she only chased away those who bullied you because you were there.”

Rubbing his eyes, Ji Ze’s hand was a little wet, “Really? But she said that I should from now on pretend I don’t have a sister like her.”

Jiang Leyi could not help but laugh and cry, “So you truly severed ties with her? Xiao Ze, I know that although you don’t say it, you do care about her deep down, and the bond you’ve shared since childhood isn’t fake.”

It seemed Ji Ze thought of something and fell silent.

Jiang Leyi took him out of Jing University before slowly starting, “Tell me about your past with her. I’m quite curious about whether she’s always been the way she is now.”

“She definitely wasn’t.” Ji Ze quickly objected, “Sister wasn’t like that before. She used to like me a lot, liked our home, loved Mom’s cooking the best, loved going fishing in the river with Dad. She would never let anyone bully me.”

Thinking of the past, Ji Ze became sad, “So, when she announced she was the Jiang Family’s long-lost legitimate daughter, we didn’t believe her. But then, Sister pushed Mom down and went to Beijing. Later, after being acknowledged by the family, she started saying our parents were bad to her, that they abused her, but none of that was true. I don’t know why she’d lie.”

Ji Ze might not know, but Jiang Leyi did.

Back then, Jiang Nanshu’s temperament was the complete opposite of when she first arrived; she wanted her family to pay attention to her, so she fabricated a clumsy excuse about being mistreated by her foster parents to gain sympathy.

“What else? Besides that incident, do you think there’s anything else about her behavior that seemed unusual?”

Unusual?

A look of confusion appeared in Ji Ze’s eyes.

He thought hard,

“My parents seemed especially afraid of Sister getting sick, because once she was ill, she’d become a completely different person. When Sister was six, she had a high fever, and when she woke up the next day, she demanded we slaughter the piglet she had been raising since it was a baby.”

“Mom and Dad couldn’t talk her out of it, so they really did it. After a few days, it seemed she was sick again. When she woke up and found out her pet pig had died, she cried all day without eating.”

Ji Ze scratched his head, “I heard about this, my parents even thought Sister was possessed and went to see a spiritual woman for her. Things got better after that… I was too young at the time to fully understand.”

“Okay, I’ve got it, go back to school for your classes,” Jiang Leyi said with a smile, nudging Ji Ze to return to class.

Ji Ze’s reluctance was evident as he looked at her, “Alright… but Sister Le Yi, if she bullies you, you have to tell me.”
