"Come on, come on, time to collect the fare."
After the bus started moving, the ticket seller came over from the front and collected fares from each passenger.
When it was Zhou Sui's turn to enter their row, Cheng Yue opened her round eyes and looked at the ticket seller.
"Little sister, here's your fare." The ticket seller said to her again.
Cheng Yue shifted her weight back in the chair and started fiddling with her wrist.
Zhou Sui followed her movements and saw that Cheng Yue was clearly trying to take off the silver bracelet on her hand.
There should have been a pair of silver bracelets on those slender wrists, but now only one remains. Zhou Sui felt that the other one was not far from disappearing.
With a sour face, she took out money from her bag and handed it to the ticket seller, saying, "For both of us."
The ticket seller took the money and said with a smile, "Are you two sisters?"
She was just asking casually, but Cheng Yue, who was taking off her bracelet, immediately replied, "Yes, she's the older sister."
No wonder the person inside paid; usually it's the older sister who pays.
"You two sisters are so beautiful." It's just that you don't look alike.
The ticket seller didn't linger with them and turned to collect fares from the other passengers.
"Sister, aren't we going to your house?" Cheng Yue looked out the window at the road. She recognized it; it was the road from the city.
She called him "sister" repeatedly, even more naturally than her cousin Zhou Yu.
Zhou Sui turned her head to look at Cheng Yue. It was clearly the same face, but Zhou Sui felt that it was completely different from the one she knew in her previous life.
Thinking about her own bizarre experience, Zhou Sui couldn't help but wonder if Cheng Yue had also been reborn.
Otherwise, why would she behave so abnormally? But if she were reborn, she should be trying to stop the Cheng family from coming to find her. Why is she coming to find her all alone now?
Filled with doubts, Zhou Sui became more wary of the seemingly naive and innocent girl in front of her.
Cheng Yue keenly noticed Zhou Sui's change and whispered, "Sister, did I say something wrong?"
Otherwise, why would my sister suddenly become so cold?
Zhou Sui looked at her coldly. Although she couldn't figure out what was wrong with Cheng Yue, Zhou Sui decided to take it one step at a time and test her while she was at it.
"There's a snack shop in the city that sells crispy grilled sausages and milk tea. Would you like to try some?"
These things don't actually belong to the present; Zhou Sui brought them in advance.
People who have been reborn should know these things. Although it was somewhat risky, Zhou Sui still asked.
If Cheng Yue knew...
"Grilled sausage? Milk tea?" Cheng Yue murmured. "What are those? Are they tasty?"
Zhou Sui was taken aback. From the moment she started asking the question, she had been staring intently at Cheng Yue, trying to get the answer from her expression.
But the expression on her face and the doubt in her eyes showed that she had never heard of these things before.
Could it be that she wasn't reborn? Or was she hiding it too well?
"Sister, are you going to take me to get milk tea and grilled sausages later?" Cheng Yue said, placing her hand on her stomach. It seemed like she hadn't eaten all day.
"No." Zhou Sui refused without hesitation; she didn't want Cheng Yue to know that she had made those snacks for the time being.
"Oh." Cheng Yue slumped her shoulders in disappointment, looking like a doormat.
"Where do we go now?"
Zhou Sui smirked coldly, "I'll find a place to sell you off."
She was obviously saying it on purpose to scare Cheng Yue.
Cheng Yue stared wide-eyed in horror, looking at her in disbelief, "Why did you sell me?"
Okay, it seems she took it seriously.
Zhou Sui really wanted to crack open her head to see what was inside.
"What are you doing here?" Zhou Sui got down to business.
Then Cheng Yue forgot about the topic they had just discussed in a second and said with a smile.
"To take my sister home."
Zhou Sui looked at her in confusion, and Cheng Yue added, "Back to the Cheng family."
"You knew everything?" Zhou Sui's eyes turned cold when the Cheng family was mentioned.
While keeping an eye on Zhou Sui's expression, Cheng Yue recounted what had happened.
The Cheng family came to the village once before the Lunar New Year, hoping to catch a glimpse of Zhou Sui from afar and learn what she looked like.
But before they could even enter the Zhou family's house, the Cheng family received a call from their housekeeper informing them that Cheng Yue had fallen from the upper floor and was unconscious.
"So that's when you broke your head?" Zhou Sui couldn't help but ask.
"It's not bad." Cheng Yue pouted, looking adorable. "It's just that I can't remember a lot of things from before."
"Then you still remember me?" Zhou Sui quickly realized something was wrong.
"No, you've never seen me before. How did you know it was me when we met today?"
She called out "sister" crisply and decisively, without the slightest hesitation.
“I…I’ve seen your picture in the study.” Even though Cheng Yue spoke with conviction, Zhou Sui was skeptical of her reason.
“You are the Cheng family’s biological daughter. I was wrong before, always preventing them from coming to take you back.”
"But during my time in the hospital, I realized that I've occupied your place for long enough, so I have to bring you home!"
