The next morning, except for the bright and beautiful day when she didn't need to study, Mei Jiu was dragged out of bed by her mother early in the morning, who said she had to go see a friend.
Mingmei sat on the bed with a confused look on her face, watching Mei Jiu having her hair re-combed by Mei Shi. Her muddled mind gradually began to clear.
Soon, Mingmei remembered what Mei Jiu was supposed to do today.
He went to meet the young geniuses of the same age sent by various cultivation sects.
After the apprenticeship ceremony a few days ago, the people from various families who came to watch the ceremony lingered and were reluctant to leave.
Finally, someone suggested that everyone practice at Jingyun Mountain for a period of time, ostensibly because people of the same age should learn from each other.
In fact, this was probably her sister's first time "selecting a concubine".
"I don't want to go, I want to go with my sister." Mei Jiu was unhappy about going down the mountain alone in the morning, and pouted as she complained, "It'll be so boring for my sister to be all alone on the mountain... Ah!"
After being flicked on the head by her mother, Mei Shi said, "Aren't your father and I human?"
Mingmei: "..."
In the end, Mingmei and Meijiu went to meet the disciples from various sects.
The only difference from her memory was that she and Mei Jiu entered the Scripture Study Hall together.
Moreover, because someone made a reckless remark that he wasn't a cultivator and what kind of person was he to be following Mei Jiu, he was so angry that he cried and ran away. Mei Jiu then got into a fight with him over this matter in the Study Hall.
Although the matter didn't escalate much afterward, Mingmei remembers that Mei Jiu never made any particularly close friends.
This time, Mei Jiu took the initiative to suggest that she take a walk around outside the Scripture Study Hall, saying that she wanted to check out the guys inside first.
Mingmei watched Mei Jiu leave, then turned and walked towards a stream outside the Study Hall. As she walked, she pondered why the memories here had changed, but unexpectedly bumped into someone.
"sorry……"
"It's you! What are you doing here all alone?" Mingmei looked up when she heard the familiar voice and saw that the person she had bumped into earlier was none other than Xie Chen, who had the exact same face as Mu Chen.
Don't you want to know your past with Mu Chen?
Suddenly, Mingmei remembered the question Yan Hui had asked her earlier. She stood there blankly, staring at Xie Chen, her mind completely blank.
What happened after she ran out of the study hall crying because of this?
Mingmei, whose mind was completely blank, couldn't help but wonder if this was how she had first met Mu Chen.
"I'm finding it a bit boring in the study hall, little sister." The girl, barely a child, said she was bored. Xie Chen, seeing this, slightly curled the corners of his lips and said, "Perfect timing. I didn't know what to do after dropping off my junior brothers and sisters at the study hall. Why don't we take a walk together?"
If Xie Chen hadn't been only about ten years old at the time, Mingmei would have thought he was some strange person.
"No..." In the end, she rejected Xie Chen's idea, turned back to look in the direction of the Study Hall, and lowered her eyelashes. "I want to wait for Xiao Jiu."
"..."
Whether it was her imagination or not, Mingmei thought she heard the other person sigh.
She looked up and met Xie Chen's gaze, only to see him squat down, looking her in the eye, and ask, "Have you and your sister always had such a good relationship? Would you do anything she asks?"
Although she felt that the other person's question was somewhat inappropriate, Mingmei still nodded and said, "Yes."
After she finished speaking, she saw the other person suddenly lower their head and avoid her gaze. Then she seemed to hear a soft laugh, which seemed to carry an unspoken danger.
...
“I won this round.” Mu Chen looked up and spoke to the dark and silent space around him, “You promised me that this body would belong to me for the next five years.”
"OK."
In the darkness, a young man with long hair and wearing a blue robe, looking exactly like him, appeared in front of him. He stared straight at Mu Chen with a smile on his lips and said, "I'd really like to see what it would be like if you went back to the past."
"Nothing will happen." Mu Chen answered without even thinking, turning his head with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
However, Mu Chen wanted to say that Yan Hui was really daring to directly try to take over the body from the guy in front of him after he transmigrated!
Getting caught at the start of the game is pretty tough for him.
"We'll see~" The boy smiled, revealing a small tiger's smile that was tinged with a sinister undertone, like a warning, and said, "Don't try to reveal anything, I'll be keeping a close eye on you."
...
This time, Mei Jiu didn't cause any trouble. Instead, after successfully subduing a group of kids in the Study Hall, she took Mingmei in and showed off.
It gives off a feeling of "This is the empire I conquered for you".
Mingmei stood beside Meijiu with a bright smile, leaving Meijiu stunned for a moment.
"I don't think I've ever seen you smile like that before."
Whether it's the NPC Mei Jiu or Mei Jiu herself, they would probably all exclaim in surprise upon seeing this.
Upon hearing this, Mingmei felt a pang of sadness in her heart, thinking back to her childhood. Although she would experience joy and sorrow, her overall emotional fluctuations were rather uneventful.
That time, he was so angry that he cried, which was rare for him, and that's why Mei Jiu got angry immediately and beat him up.
"Then I'll smile more from now on." After Mingmei finished speaking, she naturally received a big hug from Meijiu, which left some of the players mixed in with this group of young geniuses completely confused.
Player A: What? I've been in the game for so long, what is this game trying to say?
