Qi Jianyi drove her car out from the garage and went straight to her university. She let out a long sigh, feeling relieved that she managed to fool the original owner's family. If there's one thing Qi Jianyi feels grateful for is, the fact that the original owner is not close with her family.
A life that is full of uncertainty and unknown caused Qi Jianyi to feel very uncomfortable. She regains a new life, but at what cost?
What did she need to do to go back to her real body? To her real world? She knew nothing. Not to mention that Qi Jianyi doesn't even know the ending of this novel. For someone who dropped this book even before the real plot started, Qi Jianyi regretted her actions.
"Say, if I die here. Will I go back?" Qi Jianyi muttered as she looked at the red light.
The thoughts that suddenly seeped into her mind were quickly brushed away. It's not that she's afraid of death. She just refused to die meaninglessly. What if she never wakes up if she dies in this world? She might as well live as a young miss for a few months before dying then.
Qi Jianyi pressed the pedal as soon as the traffic light changed colour, she could see the magnificent university building that was not too far. Luckily Qi Jianyi in this world studies the same course as her in the real world. Or else, she had to think on how to change courses.
She drove into the building and parked her car. Taking a deep breath to mentally prepare her mind before stepping out of the car. Qi Jianyi was not so nervous as it was not the first time she ever entered a university but a strange university? She was certainly nervous.
"Jianyi! You are quite late today." Qi Jianyi halted her steps the moment a sweet voice called her name. She was certain that there's no second Qi Jianyi in this university.
The awkward young lady turns around and smiles at the owner of the voice, "Ling Xi, I overslept." She greets.
Ling Xi. One of the original Qi Jianyi's friend. As the fake Qi Jianyi, Qi Jianyi tried not to have too much contact with this friend of hers. After all, they are two different people with different personalities. Her family might not realise it since they are not close, but her friends? The chances are higher.
Ling Xi looked at Qi Jianyi up and down, and felt like something seemed wrong with her. But she was too tired to think too much and brushed off her feelings. She hooked her arms with Qi Jianyi and gave a sweet smile to the girl.
"It's fine, then let's go to class together!" Ling Xi said while pulling Qi Jianyi with her.
Not being able to refuse, Qi Jianyi accepted her fate and followed her so-called friend. Thankfully she received the original Qi Jianyi's memories. Although it was quite blurry and difficult to remember things when she was little, but knowing the present and what happened to the original owner's life for the past three years was enough.
"Do you know that we will have an exam the day after tomorrow? Urgh, I thought I could enjoy brother He's birthday banquet with peace. But now I have to focus on the exam before going to the party. Anyway, you will come, right?" Ling Xi pouts her lips, complaining.
Qi Jianyi raised her eyebrows, confused.
"Who's birthday party?" She asked.
Ling Xi sighed and shook her head, "It's Zejin's birthday."
"He Zeqing's younger brother?" Qi Jianyi wanted confirmation. Meanwhile Ling Xi looked at her weirdly.
"Obviously. There is no other He family other than them. Jianyi, he is obviously your cousin? How can you forget him?" She stated seriously.
Qi Jianyi was stunned and quickly recovered her composure. She bites her lips slowly not knowing how she could possibly forget the most important part of the plot. Her mother and the main protagonist's father were siblings. Technically, Qi Jianyi and He Zeqing grew up together despite being cold to each other. Not to mention, the upcoming birthday party will be one of the stumbling blocks for the female lead, Xia Ning.
Qi Jianyi who had read this part knew how Xia Ning would be humiliated by the other second rich generations, the young masters and ladies. The original Qi Jianyi in the book was stated as the spectator who didn't say anything to make the situation worse nor did she try to save the female lead.
She was like a wallflower. Watching everything on the sidelines. Not cruel enough to join and also not care enough to stop them.
"Jianyi, you better come okay? Last time you bailed on me for no reason. If you don't come this time, I will go to your house and drag you out!" Ling Xi warned her friend. She couldn't accept that Qi Jianyi bailed out on one of their friend's birthday parties before without any valid reason.
"I'll surely be there. Walk faster, class is starting." Qi Jianyi answered half heartedly, and pulled Ling Xi to their class hall.
Whether she will really go or not depends on her mood that day.
