Chapter 1 Returning to the Original Body
Chapter 1 Returning to the Original Body
"Hey, isn't this that little idiot Li Shuchen! Look at the mud she's gotten herself all over, tsk tsk tsk, so dirty and smelly, she really has no eyes for food."
Someone nearby chimed in, "Yeah, how silly."
Another voice said, "She's always been an idiot."
Upon hearing this, Li Shuchen immediately retorted, "Are you kidding me? In my twenty-two years of life, no one has ever dared to say that to me."
Before even opening his eyes, his mouth started spewing: "Hey, who's spewing filth here, daring to shit on my head? Don't they know their own limitations?"
If you call her stupid, can she tolerate that?
I opened my eyes and was immediately stunned. What kind of place was this? Is this what the afterlife is like? Everyone had their hair tied up and wore long robes. The houses were classical and solemn, with an antique charm.
A crowd had gathered around him, men and women, young and old. Perhaps they were stunned by Li Shuchen's words, for they were all staring intently at him, trying to figure out what was going on.
Li Shuchen looked at her clothes and hands—these weren't hers either. And her height? Only 1.55 meters, no more than that. She used to be 1.7 meters tall!
After thinking for a while, could it be that I've time-traveled? Soul transmigration?
Ironically, she was actually quite happy while using the toilet because it was June 26th, her payday, and she was thinking about what delicious food to have for dinner.
Then, with a sudden burst of effort, my stomach started hurting terribly. I opened my browser and searched...
Why does my lower abdomen hurt after straining while using the toilet?
A: It could be due to a ruptured corpus luteum. Please seek medical attention immediately.
Li Shuchen's heart sank when she saw this. She knew that a ruptured corpus luteum could cause serious injury. She hurriedly dressed and came out, but before she could even dial 120 (the emergency number in China), she collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
When she regained consciousness, she heard someone cursing at her, and subconsciously she wanted to fight back.
Looking back now, I'm so glad she's still alive.
She suddenly had a headache, and some memories she had never had before came to mind.
She has the exact same name as the original owner of this body.
The original owner was indeed a fool.
Li Shuchen was quick to learn; he shook himself off for a moment and steadied himself.
As she pondered whether to feign ignorance or engage in a heated debate, a pair of hands suddenly pulled her out of the crowd.
Quick, ruthless, and precise, as if he'd done it a thousand times before, he grabbed her and ran.
Li Shuchen was caught off guard by this move and ran while looking around.
He was a boy of thirteen or fourteen, who seemed a little taller than me, about 1.6 meters. His youthful face was full of anxiety and worry. He was handsome with delicate features. Searching my memory, I realized that this was the original owner's younger brother, Li Lingxiao.
Li Lingxiao's movements were so practiced, it seemed the original owner had been bullied a lot when she was young. She searched through her memories to find out who had bullied the original owner. She made a mental note of this debt and would settle it slowly when she had the chance.
Daring to mess with her, he's truly ignorant and arrogant. Just wait and see how she deals with him later...
"Sister, are you alright?" The boy's clear voice pulled Li Shuchen back to reality.
Li Shuchen stared at the two large characters "Li Mansion" before him, his mind racing. "What should I do? How heartbroken he'll be if he finds out his older sister is a different person? In my memory, he treated her older sister so, so well."
Li Shuchen's eyes darted around: "Brother, brother, wash, wash!" Li Shuchen mimicked the original owner's previous manner of speaking, pointing to her clothes, tilting her head and grinning foolishly. No matter what, she couldn't give herself away now; she had to think of a way to solve the problem.
However, Li Shuchen was genuinely feeling unwell. After all, when she first transmigrated, she was lying on the ground eating grass; it had just rained, and the early spring weather was still quite chilly.
Li Lingxiao readily agreed; how could he refuse his sister's request?
A young girl with her hair styled in a maid's bun rushed in from outside. "Miss, where have you been?" Her forehead was covered in sweat, and she looked anxious. When she saw Li Shuchen, she breathed a sigh of relief.
But her eyes quickly reddened, and she pulled Li Shuchen, looking her up and down: "How did Miss get like this? It's all my fault, I didn't watch over her properly."
Li Shuchen remained silent, tilting her head, chuckling foolishly. She was quite adept at playing dumb.
Li Lingxiao said, "Grape, it's not your fault. My sister has always been like this. Luckily, she's alright. Let's take her to take a bath."
Li Shuchen has the original owner's memories and knows that Grape is sincere towards her. After all, even though she was so foolish, Grape did not neglect her in the slightest.
Grape led her westward, while Li Lingxiao went eastward. If I'm not mistaken...
She lived in the west wing, while Li Lingxiao lived in the east wing. The main room in the middle was definitely for the elderly couple.
Once inside, Grape asked her to sit on a stool.
Then he said, "Miss, would you please sit here and wait for me? I'll go boil some water and be right back."
Li Shuchen nodded. After Grape left, she sat there in a daze. This felt like being reborn, and she would live it well. She just didn't know where the original owner of this body had gone.
Soon the hot water was ready, and Grape offered to help Li Shuchen take a bath, but Li Shuchen shook her head and told her to leave; she wanted to be alone.
Li Shuchen sat in the bathtub, ah, so comfortable. He propped his head up with one hand and began to sort through the original owner's memories.
This is a dynasty called Purple Star.
The family lived in Ankang Lane, which was slightly better than Ping'an Lane. The family was small, consisting of the mother, father, younger brother, and Grape, who took care of the original owner.
From the gate to his own room, Li Shuchen took in the general layout of the Li residence. It was a two-courtyard house, but the courtyard was bare and empty, a desolate sight to behold.
Looking up at his room, he saw it was simply furnished, enough to survive. The paint on the tables and chairs was almost completely peeling off, and the windows creaked in the wind.
Despite their extreme poverty, her parents still hired a maid to take care of her, showing how much they loved her.
Li Shuchen simply couldn't understand why she had transmigrated. In modern times, she was all alone, without parents, relatives, or any special skills—just an ordinary female college student.
Why is it?
In a daze, she noticed something shimmering in the water. The mist made it hard to see clearly, so she reached out to look and discovered her silver bracelet was glowing with a shimmering, purplish-pink hue, radiant and dreamlike.
Li Shuchen was overjoyed; her silver bracelet had also traveled through time with her! How wonderful! (????)
This silver bracelet with a starry sky design was something she bought after working several part-time jobs and saving up for many days during college. It was the best and most expensive thing she owned, and she cherished it dearly.
Zi------
A mechanical voice announced, "Hello, host. The Auspicious System has been activated."
Li Shuchen was excited upon hearing this. Good heavens, a system! That means there are missions! She knew it! How could she just transmigrate like that?
Jixiang (吉祥) is a good name; it's quite likable and sounds auspicious.
Li Shuchen shifted his head to his other hand and immediately asked the question she cared about most, "Little Jizi, do you know why I ended up here? And where did the original owner go?"
When she transmigrated, the original owner was just eating grass and wasn't in any life-threatening danger, so she must still be alive.
"Please call me Jixiang, thank you." The cold voice sounded somewhat angry, yet it also carried a hint of warmth.
Li Shuchen smiled and said, "Okay, Little Jizi."
auspicious:"……"
The system screen is full of black lines (?_?|||). Oh well, I'll still need her in the future, so let her be.
Ji Xiang said coldly, "I brought you to this realm. You are the original owner of this body, and you are the original owner."
"What?!" This sentence shocked her for a thousand years, and her voice involuntarily rose a few decibels: "What do you mean, 'The original owner is me,' 'I am the original owner'? How is that possible?"
Jixiang: "To be precise, you are one soul and two spirits of Li Shuchen in this interface. You are now the complete Li Shuchen."
"That's why you have all the memories on this screen. You should also be able to empathize with the feelings your family had for you before, right?"
Li Shuchen fell silent; what Xiao Jizi said was true.
For some reason, she felt a sense of injustice mixed with relief within her soul.
After Jixiang finished speaking, the bracelet returned to its previous state.
Even with Li Shuchen's strong ability to adapt, she still needs time to catch up.
