Chapter 414 Choose to Confess
Ye Wanxi knew what she was going to say, and interrupted her with a faint smile: "We're not outsiders, there's no need to be so formal. You can go about your business and don't need to worry about us."
Aunt Meng thought about it and felt that Ye Wanxi's words made sense, so she nodded and said, "Then Wanxi, please take good care of your boyfriend and this gentleman. I'll go check on the children first. I've left the key here for you. Remember to lock the door when you go out."
"Yes, you can go without worry."
Aunt Meng followed the little boy away, and Guan Xianshi wisely didn't stay behind to be a third wheel. He made an excuse to go out and buy some drinks and slipped away.
Once Guan Xianshi left, only Ye Wanxi and the other person remained in the storage room.
Since it was Feng Tianyu's first time visiting, Ye Wanxi didn't dare let him rummage through the documents. After estimating their location, she quickly pulled out a somewhat worn-out file folder from under the shelf.
“This is…” Feng Tianyu’s eyes flickered slightly when he saw the three familiar words on the file bag.
"This is my basic information from childhood to adulthood," Ye Wanxi said as she opened the file bag and took out the text documents inside.
Feng Tianyu stood beside her, and what came into view was a woman who looked to be in her early forties holding a soft little baby, looking at the camera with a faint smile.
The child in the woman's arms looked to be a newborn, with big, dark, grape-like eyes gazing ahead, revealing a hint of curiosity—cute and innocent.
Feng Tianyu felt his heart tremble suddenly, and he vaguely recalled a day in his previous life when his master suddenly returned mysteriously carrying a pale yellow swaddled baby.
The moment the swaddling clothes were lifted, a chubby baby sleeping soundly suddenly appeared before his eyes.
At the time, he only thought the baby was cute and chubby, never imagining that this child would become his lifelong obsession in the near future.
“This is me, and this is Headmistress Mama.” Ye Wanxi did not notice Feng Tianyu’s strangeness and pointed to the photo. “The children in our orphanage are either orphans who were sent here, or abandoned by their parents for various reasons. I belong to the latter. I was only one or two months old when Headmistress Mama found me.”
Feng Tianyu's heart trembled upon hearing this. His junior sister had been abandoned in both her lives, and in both lives she had met people who took her in and treated her well.
The only difference is that in her previous life, her junior sister was protected by them and her master, who always put her first and never let her suffer, except for that unexpected incident.
In this life, even though Junior Sister met the old dean and Aunt Meng who truly loved her, the two of them had limited energy and ability. Junior Sister had to rely on herself to do what she wanted and get what she wanted.
Thinking of the information he had seen before, Feng Tianyu couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
No wonder Master repeatedly emphasized during the divination that even after reincarnation, they could not relax their vigilance, otherwise how could they protect their helpless junior sister?
“Generally speaking, for children like me who don’t know their exact birth date, the orphanage will take the day they found us as our birthday.”
Feng Tianyu frowned: "The birth date on your ID card is the date you were found, not your actual birthday?"
"Hmm." Ye Wanxi didn't seem to care much about it. "It's just an anniversary. It doesn't matter which day we celebrate, what matters is the people we celebrate with."
In her previous life, Ye Wanxi didn't even know the exact date of her birthday. Yet, her senior brothers still gave her a ton of gifts and celebrated with her on the day their master found her.
Ye Wanxi continued flipping through the pages. The orphanage had limited resources, and there wasn't much information left.
Basically, they make a record when the child is first admitted to the hospital, and another record when the child starts school. They take a group photo each time the child enters elementary, middle, or high school to commemorate the occasion.
Some adopted children have adoption records, but those like Ye Wanxi who have never been adopted do not.
Feng Tianyu watched as the child in the photo grew up little by little, shedding his childishness and gradually becoming the familiar figure in his memory.
It felt like witnessing the growth of those around me once again.
Finally, Ye Wanxi turned to the last page of the documents in her hand, and her hand froze.
Feng Tianyu noticed her unusual behavior and looked closely. He immediately saw Ye Wanxi in the photo, holding her university admission letter and smiling brightly.
This photo clearly shows how happy Ye Wanxi was when she received her acceptance letter.
Unfortunately, she never had the chance to take this certificate to the university she had always dreamed of.
Feng Tianyu felt a pang in his heart. He instinctively grabbed Ye Wanxi's slightly cool hand and asked in a low voice, "Do you still want to... go to school?"
Ye Wanxi shook her head, reached out and touched the photo of herself, and said wistfully, "Some things, once missed, are missed forever, and no matter how much you try to make up for it, you can never go back to the way things were."
Feng Tianyu's expression darkened slightly, and he was about to say something more when Ye Wanxi suddenly turned her head to meet his eyes: "Senior Brother, there's something I... want to tell you."
Seeing her so serious, Feng Tianyu also became nervous: "What is it?"
"Actually, I... I'm different from you."
"What's different?"
"I didn't suddenly regain my memories and remember things from my past life, but rather... I traveled through time."
"Time travel?"
"Hmm." Ye Wanxi briefly explained how her mother, the dean, passed away, how she was in a car accident and briefly became a vegetable, how her body was taken over by an outsider, and how she was thus transported to their era.
Feng Tianyu had long suspected that the "person" who had stirred up trouble in the entertainment industry a few years ago was not his real junior sister.
Even so, he was still shocked and puzzled when he heard Ye Wanxi mention this.
"You mean, you were in a car accident and your soul left your body. During the time your soul was out of your body and you became a vegetable, your body was occupied by an external soul, and you tore through the void and traveled to our time, where you were born as a baby and were taken back by Master?"
"Um."
"Then when your master took you in, weren't you already..."
Ye Wanxi knew what he wanted to say, and hurriedly said, "No, no, I didn't have any memories when I was born, just like you in this life. It was only at a certain time that I suddenly gained memories of this life due to a certain opportunity."
Feng Tianyu frowned slightly and asked, "Sometime? When?"
"Well..." Ye Wanxi scratched her face guiltily and said embarrassedly, "When I was six years old, I ran away to pick fruit and accidentally fell into the river. After I was pulled out, I had a high fever for several days. These memories came back to me one by one during those days of fever."
