Chapter 67 Zhang Tuanyuan
From the second to the seventh day of the Chinese New Year, Jiang Shenru did as Brother Jinsi instructed, without making any statement and even without picking up his cell phone.
As far as Ren Fenghe observed, the only time Jiang Shen picked up his phone was when he answered a call from Zhang Jingchun.
After answering the phone, Jiang Shen deliberately avoided her and went into the kitchen.
The kitchen was so soundproof that she couldn't eavesdrop on what they were talking about.
But based on the current situation, it is most likely about things happening on the Internet.
Without a cell phone, Jiang Shen, who is isolated from the world, has been staying in the studio these days. Ren Fenghe also stays in the studio with Jiang Shen every day, either secretly checking messages on her tablet or dragging Jiang Shen to ask him to teach her how to play a musical instrument.
A few days have passed and the company has still not responded, once again allowing public opinion to fly before the return period is about to arrive.
No matter how turbulent the outside world is, they are not affected and spend most of their time leisurely working on their own things in the studio.
During the period when Ren Fenghe was a good kid, he would occasionally get so angry at Jiang Shen that he would jump up and down, and he would think of new ways to torment Jiang Shen.
Every time Jiang Shen annoyed her, she would invite Jiang Shen to leave his workbench and come to the instrument room, plug his ears in advance, close the door of the instrument room to ensure that no sound would leak out, and then beat the drums hard.
Let the chaotic noise of random beating without rhythm or emotion rush into Jiang Shen's ears, giving him an eardrum spa with magical sound.
Jiang Shen, who had a superb sense of sound, could only frown and take difficult steps to approach the source of the noise. He ruthlessly snatched the drumstick from Ren Fenghe's hand, and turned the drumstick into a mallet. He crossed his arms and stared at Ren Fenghe, forcing Ren Fenghe to sit in front of the piano and practice the same song over and over again for an hour in response.
I have to say, after practicing this back and forth a few times, Ren Fenghe, who was just starting to learn the piano, almost mastered the little song by heart.
When Ren Fenghe thought about how he could play a complex but beautiful piece of music after practicing, he was able to overcome the boredom and practice over and over again even without Jiang Shen by his side.
Jiang Shen, who didn't know Ren Fenghe's real age, was surprised that she could finish Xiao Tang so quickly, and wondered if she had a talent for piano.
Therefore, he reduced the time he spent at the workbench, thinking about how to teach such a little piano prodigy so as not to waste her talent.
Because of this, I sent a long message to Zhang Jingchun, praising your daughter as a little piano genius with both talent and hard work.
Ren Fenghe, who accidentally saw this text message, felt extremely guilty and was very sorry to Zhang Tuanyuan.
If they were to switch back one day, Zhang Tuanyuan would have to take over the pits she had dug.
Thinking of Zhang Tuanyuan, Ren Fenghe thought of the dream that night.
Ren Fenghe has been trying hard to recall the dream of that day during this period of time. As he thought about it, his memory became clearer and clearer.
That night, when she had a fever, she dreamed of two rooms again.
In the dream, she was walking back and forth between the two doors. She knew that one room was hers and the other was Zhang Tuanyuan's.
The door of the room belonging to Zhang Tuanyuan was open, and just like in the first dream, Zhang Tuanyuan's cry for help could be heard from the room.
From another room, which belonged to her but was originally open but now locked, Zhang Tuanyuan's voice could be heard.
In the dream, Ren Fenghe heard Zhang Tuanyuan's voice in his room and felt a little scared. After hesitating for a long time, he knocked on the door of Zhang Tuanyuan's room.
The door with a crack opened, and the translucent Zhang Tuanyuan came into view.
Zhang Tuanyuan was confused about everything, and she didn't know the answers to many of the questions Ren Fenghe asked her.
Like, does she know she’s using her body?
For example, how did she get to Zhang Tuanyuan?
For example, where is Zhang Tuanyuan now?
For example, does Zhang Tuanyuan know how the two of them can return to their places?
For example, why is Zhang Tuanyuan translucent?
In response to these questions, Zhang Tuanyuan shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.
She didn't even know who Ren Fenghe was, but she felt that Ren Fenghe had a familiar and favorite smell, so she was willing to open the door.
"Sister, are you the wolf grandma who would kidnap me?" Zhang Tuanyuan asked her.
In response, Ren Fenghe could only smile bitterly and answer: "Of course not."
That’s right, she, an adult, didn’t know how all this happened, so how could Zhang Tuanyuan know?
She had no choice but to ask Zhang Tuanyuan why she asked for help, but Zhang Tuanyuan said she had never spoken.
This made Ren Fenghe even more confused.
Ren Fenghe asked her if she knew where she was now.
Zhang Tuanyuan did not hesitate at all to answer this question and immediately said, "I'm waiting for my mother to come back home."
The home Zhang Tuanyuan mentioned is her and Zhang Jingchun’s home.
So Ren Fenghe asked: "Do you know Jiang Shen? He is your father, right?"
Zhang Tuanyuan hesitated for a long time before answering, "Are you talking about a tall and beautiful person?"
Ren Fenghe nodded.
Zhang Tuanyuan looked a little melancholy. She said, "I don't know if he is my father, but he should be. He will help me take good care of my mother."
Zhang Tuanyuan mentioned Zhang Jingchun, so Ren Fenghe said, "We have to return to our respective bodies, so that you can see your mother."
Zhang Tuanyuan shook her head and said, "No, I can't go anywhere. I want to wait for my mother to come back home. I don't want to live in someone else's house."
Ren Fenghe was helpless as he did not get an answer and instead became even more confused.
She did not leave immediately, but played with Zhang Tuanyuan for a while before leaving with a lot of questions in her mind. After much hesitation, she walked to the door of her room.
She mustered up the courage to knock on the door.
A small voice was heard in the dream. It was Zhang Tuanyuan's voice.
Zhang Tuanyuan seemed to know who was knocking on the door.
She didn't open the door, but said, "Sister, I'm sorry."
Ren Fenghe didn't understand why she apologized.
But her intuition told her that Zhang Tuanyuan in this room seemed to know something.
She asked Zhang Tuanyuan the same question she had just asked him in the room.
"I know where I am," Zhang Tuanyuan said without hiding anything. "I'm in your body. I'm sleeping in the hospital."
Ren Fenghe said: "That means we did swap bodies. Do you know how we can return to our respective bodies?"
Zhang Tuanyuan apologized again, and then said: "Sister, I'm sorry, I don't want to go back yet, I, I want to be with my mother."
"If you want to be with your mother, you should go back to your body, right? My body should be farther away from Zhang Jingchun." Ren Fenghe looked confused.
Suddenly, she vaguely grasped some information, and she said, "Or... do you mean that your mother and I are in the same hospital?"
"Yeah." Zhang Tuanyuan replied in a low voice.
Ren Fenghe got a clue that he had never thought of, and was so shocked that he didn't know how to react.
She searched for the software Aunt Wang used to send short videos and knew that her body was in the hospital.
But how could she get to a hospital that was two hours away by plane?
This made Ren Fenghe even more confused.
"But my body is fainting, and there's nothing you can do, right?"
"I can float out!" Zhang Tuanyuan's response sounded a little proud.
Ren Fenghe was even more confused. Can Zhang Tuanyuan come and go freely? Can he stay in her body, or leave her body as a ghost at any time?
When did the world become so unscientific?
But when I think about the fact that they can even do something like body swapping, it seems understandable that more fantastic and unscientific things could happen.
"I want to be closer to my mother. I don't want to be sent away by her," Zhang Tuanyuan said again.
The two Zhang Tuanyuan's words echoed each other.
Ren Fenghe suddenly had a guess.
She thought for a moment and said, "Did you know that your mother was going to leave you to Jiang Shen to take care of? He's a tall, handsome uncle."
"I, I secretly opened the door and heard everything." Her voice suddenly became tearful.
"I wanted to reassure my mother, so I followed her, but I didn't want to leave her."
Ren Fenghe felt like there were a bunch of messy threads in her head, giving her a headache.
"Do you know how we switched bodies?" she asked.
Unfortunately, Zhang Tuanyuan didn't know.
Zhang Tuanyuan said: "That day, I followed my father home. At night, I missed my mother and made a wish that I wanted to go back to her. Then I dreamed of two doors."
"I saw you, sister. You were crying in the room."
"In the dream, I became two of me. A voice told me to go into two rooms at the same time so that I could be with my mother. When my sister wanted to come back, I could go back too."
"Sister, I'm sorry, can you wait a little longer? I want to stay with mom for a while. It will be quick. I will open the door for you. When the time comes, you can come into the room and you should be able to come back."
"I'm sorry for occupying your body without your consent. I will return it to you."
Little Zhang Tuanyuan speaks slowly but expresses himself fluently and clearly, and is much more mature than a normal four-year-old child.
Ren Fenghe uttered a low "ah".
She came to Zhang Tuanyuan's body and made a wish.
She made a wish in her dream, she hoped to say something to Jiang Shen in person.
So, did the wish fairy want to fulfill their wishes at the same time, so she made them swap bodies?
Ren Fenghe said: "But what if I'm a bad guy and don't want to go back, and I keep using your body?"
Zhang Tuanyuan said: "The voice in my dream said, sister, you won't do this."
Zhang Tuanyuan's voice suddenly lowered.
"Besides, if mom is really gone, I want to go with her. If sister doesn't want to come back, she can use my body."
Immediately afterwards, Ren Fenghe woke up.
Ren Fenghe, who was running a fever, was in a daze at the time. He only remembered that he dreamed of two doors and Zhang Tuanyuan, but he couldn't remember what he said specifically.
All I know is that Jiang Shen was humming a song while comforting her while she was receiving an IV drip.
It took her several days to slowly remember the contents of the dream.
Time flew by and it was the seventh day of the New Year. That night, they ordered takeout for dinner in the studio.
After eating and drinking, Ren Fenghe, who had completely remembered the content of her dream, wrote down the clues in a notebook in a way that only she could understand.
Jiang Shen had been reluctant to take her to the hospital before, and she also didn't want to go to the hospital in case Zhang Jingchun noticed something was wrong, so she didn't keep asking Jiang Shen to take her.
But now she knew that Zhang Tuanyuan was in her body and her body was in the same hospital, so she had to find a way to go to the hospital.
She had to confirm whether her body was really there to verify the reality of the dream.
When she finished memorizing everything and racked her brains to think of how to make Jiang Shen willing to take her to the hospital, the key figure Jiang Shen suddenly walked into the living room of the studio and waved at Ren Fenghe mysteriously.
