The movie queen, Wei Jin Ning, transmigrated i...
After the family finished dinner, Huo Jinning suddenly stopped everyone and said she had something to say.
"Dad, Mom, eldest brother, second brother, sister, Aqi, I'm sorry, I..." Huo Jinning choked up and couldn't continue. She took a breath before saying, "I'm not... Huo Jinning, I'm actually... not your daughter. I'm sorry, I lied to you. It's just... it's just that you're too... good to me..."
Huo Jinning sobbed and couldn't continue, tears streaming down her face.
"Ningning, what nonsense are you talking about? You are my daughter." Zhao Qiuying hugged Huo Jinning, who was sitting in a wheelchair.
Others also said she was like family to them.
“I…no, I…actually…don’t belong to this…world,” Huo Jinning explained.
Fu Qinian was the first to realize that he wasn't unaware of Ningning's distance from him, but he had always thought it was because she had just woken up from her coma. It turned out that she had forgotten the past.
“Ningning, the one we know is you, the one who is the movie queen, the one who traveled into the book,” Fu Qinian explained in time.
"What?" Huo Jinning looked up at Fu Qinian in disbelief.
How could they possibly know her identity?
After Huo Jinning calmed down a bit, Huo Shan recounted their first meeting, everything that happened afterward, including how they were able to hear her thoughts and how they resolved the trouble.
Huo Jinning was stunned; she never expected this outcome.
"What system? I don't know." Huo Jinning asked, her eyes red and puzzled.
“We don’t know either. All we know is that it’s called Xiao Liu, and it can know what’s going to happen or what has already happened. We don’t know anything else, but we can’t hear your thoughts anymore,” Huo Shan replied.
"But I don't remember. I was supposed to be attending an awards ceremony, but my colleagues were jealous of me and pushed me down the steps. After that, I fell into a coma and only woke up three days later. But since then, I've been having dreams. I dream that there's someone lying in bed with me. I've seen all of you, but I can't hear what you're saying. Lately, I haven't been having these dreams much. I just do what I always do: finish work, go home to rest, and when I open my eyes, I'm here."
"Will you go back?" Zhao Qiuying asked nervously.
The others also looked tense, which is understandable, given that she was still alive.
"I don't know," Huo Jinning said, shaking her head.
This made everyone even more nervous, fearing that Huo Jinning might fall into a coma at any moment and never wake up again.
Fu Qinian's legs went weak and he almost fell, but Huo Nanchu reacted quickly and helped him up, so he could barely stand.
Zhao Qiuying and Huo Jinxin were so frightened that they burst into tears.
"Alright, there shouldn't be any more changes this time. The system inside Ningning has disappeared, so she shouldn't be going back." Huo Shan reassured everyone present with a slightly hesitant tone.
“That’s right, Dad is right, Ningning definitely won’t go back to the building.” Huo Zimo quickly chimed in.
The others nodded in agreement, but they all knew perfectly well that it was nothing more than a self-deceiving psychological comfort.
After all, this matter is full of variables, and no one can be certain of the outcome.
However, the whole atmosphere became unusually heavy and oppressive.
"I was injured and lost consciousness this time. I will definitely be careful in the future and try my best to avoid getting hurt," Huo Jinning said softly to reassure everyone.
"Yes, we will protect you from now on and will never allow you to suffer any harm, so that you won't leave," Huo Nanchu said earnestly.
The others also secretly resolved to protect Huo Jinning.
Huo Jin gazed quietly at the concerned and loving faces of her family members, and the heavy weight in her heart finally began to lift.
At first, she was worried, fearing that her relatives would blame her for usurping their daughter's body.
However, fate had a wonderful arrangement. When they finally found her, she was the one who appeared before them, and she was the one who lived with them day and night.
Although she still felt a pang of guilt deep down about taking over the original owner's body, she had gradually come to terms with it and was now able to face reality with equanimity.
After all, such family ties were something she found hard to sever.
There's also that man named Fu Qinian.
Over the past month, he has given her meticulous care and attention. How could such deep affection not touch one's heart?
She once mistakenly believed that he was in love with his ex, Huo Jinning, so she deliberately kept her distance from him.
Now the truth is out: the person he loved all along was himself.
When Huo Jinning turned her gaze to Fu Qinian again, her eyes sparkled with joy, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly. Her smile was as radiant and dazzling as a flower blooming in spring.
That very night, Huo Jinning fell asleep and began to dream again, but unlike before, she was having a dream.
In her dream, a voice named Xiao Liu reached her ears: "My mission has been accomplished. I came here to save the Huo family. Now that the crisis facing the Huo family has vanished, it is time for me to leave."
It turns out that Xiao Liu had been hiding within Huo Jinning's soul all along.
Due to the chaotic and intertwined spacetime, Huo Jinning's soul was accidentally transferred into Wei Jinning's body.
That's why Xiao Liu never woke up.
It wasn't until Wei Jinning suffered a severe injury and her soul was deeply shaken that Xiao Liu seized the opportunity and successfully brought back the soul that truly belonged to Huo Jinning.
Now the truth is out: whether from a physical or spiritual perspective, Huo Jinning is a true member of the Huo family.
The person who once possessed Huo Jinning's soul was nothing more than a lonely, wandering ghost.
At this moment, the wild spirit had quietly departed, disappearing without a trace.
Huo Jinning also witnessed a shocking scene: Wei Jinning's body, which had once been her refuge, suddenly died without any warning.
Her manager, Xiaoyue, was heartbroken, but still took care of her funeral arrangements. She had said before that her ashes should be scattered at sea after she died, and Xiaoyue remembered and did just that.
This also allowed Wei Jinning to return to nature, as if she had never been there at all.
Only then did Huo Jinning realize that the connection between herself and that body had been completely severed.
Now, she is no longer a ghost that survives by borrowing another's body, but a true individual with a complete body and soul.
This feeling was both strange and wonderful, as if I had been reborn.
Looking back on those days of parasitism, all sorts of experiences flashed through my mind like a movie, but now they are all just a distant memory.
