"I guessed it."

"Zuo Zuo, you..."

"Please call me Comrade Gu. Xie Jinyu, don't play dumb, you know what I'm talking about."

“If you’ve done your research, you should be able to see how different I am from that Gu Zuozuo. She’s physically weak, but I can kill a wild boar with one punch. She’s gentle, but I’ll draw blood at the slightest provocation. She doesn’t know medicine and doesn’t recognize medicinal herbs, but I can poison an entire village without making a sound. And yet, are you still going to pretend to be stupid?”

Xie Jinyu lowered her head and remained silent, her throat choked with emotion, and her eyes suddenly stung with tears.

Where is she?

Gu Zuozuo spread her hands, her expression unusually somewhat helpless.

"The truth is, I don't know. When I woke up, I was tied up by two thugs who said they wanted to taste the flavor of a rich man's daughter. I didn't see her."

"So, stop treating me like her. She's the one you're engaged to, not me. And don't even think about how to deal with this wandering ghost. Without me, she would have been violated and couldn't survive. Everything in this world has a cause and effect. The cause is in your hands, and the effect is in my hands. Instead of blaming me for taking over her body, you should think about how to avenge her."

Xie Jinyu took a deep breath and looked up to carefully examine the familiar yet unfamiliar face in front of her.

"Where are you from?"

Gu Zuozuo raised an eyebrow, not intending to hide it anymore. She had already said she was being resurrected, so what was a little more?

"It should be the future, but I don't know if it's the future of your world. After all, there are still quite a few cultural differences."

"The future, that should be a pretty good world."

Otherwise, they wouldn't have raised such a free-spirited, open-minded, and cheerful girl.

"It's pretty good. It's the world's number one superpower, the kind that's very strong. It's the kind of country that everyone, whether they're blond, red, fat, or short, is envious of but can't do anything about."

Xie Jinyu smiled, her expression softening.

"I have another request: please don't tell Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu that you are not her. Aunt Gu is in poor health, and Uncle Gu was attacked when a spy stole the medicine prescription, so his health is not as good as before. They can't accept the news that Zuo Zuo is in trouble."

"Ha, where were you all before? And stop testing me. I love this country just as much as you do. You would never betray me."

Rolling her eyes, Gu Zuozuo got up and left, which was tantamount to acknowledging his request. Even if he hadn't said it, she wouldn't have upset the two old people. Losing a daughter in middle age was something no one could accept.

However, no one knows their own child better than their own parents. Since the original owner of this body is completely different from the original owner, it would be difficult for them not to know.

Xie Jinyu, who was sitting quietly, lowered his eyes and looked at the bloodstains on his palm. So, he was right. She was not that little girl, nor... the bride he had chosen since childhood.

"Left left..."

Gu Zuozuo poked Qi Meng's forehead with one finger, and the two of them pushed two steps away from her.

"Don't talk to me, I'm sensitive to idiots."

Qi Meng's lips drooped, looking as aggrieved as a puppy that wasn't even a month old.

"It's not my fault. Ma Liang insisted on taking the old woman home. Who knew she was a human trafficker?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Liang, who had been standing quietly and obediently to the side, looked up incredulously at the adults who were unfazed by the wrongful accusation against the child. A corner of his heart... collapsed.

Are all adults like this? What should I do if he suddenly doesn't want to grow up anymore?
