"There are a lot of holes in your words," Qin Yuhuan began her analysis. "First, in your world, Xiaozi has been gone for five years. She's the sole heir to two major corporations that have garnered widespread attention. Even if Uncle Zhao and Aunt Ziyu wanted to keep this secret, they couldn't."
"So even if Xiaozi successfully returns, what does that mean? A medical miracle? How do you expect society to treat her? Or will you keep the news of her resurrection secret, lock her up at home, and let her become an identityless person, or someone using someone else's identity?"
If Shu Baizhu had a theoretical basis and a scientific method, Qin Yuhuan would not have been so angry with her. What is the current situation? Everything is Shu Baizhu's own imagination.
"What do you want Xiaozi to do? Do you want her to be in critical condition here? What if she doesn't go back? What if she goes back and the original Xiaozi doesn't appear? Are you going to make Uncle Zhao and Aunt Ziyu in this world suffer again?"
Shu Baizhu was speechless.
Yes, everything was imagined by her, the best possible outcome that she expected to happen.
Ziyi couldn't bear it any longer, so she quickly said "excuse me" and walked out quickly with her hands covering her mouth and feeling nauseous.
When passing by Shu Baizhu, Shu Baizhu grabbed Ziyi's arm, but Ziyi pushed Shu Baizhu hard with his backhand, and the whole person seemed to be in a state of stress, "Don't touch me!"
Qin Yuhuan went over, hugged Ziyi tightly, patted her gently, and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, it's okay, it's okay, you go out first."
She ignored Shu Baizhu, who was stunned on the spot, and walked out with a casual demeanor, handing her over to Li Haizhen. She then returned and locked the door. All her gentleness was completely restrained, and her dark eyes were filled with strong emotions. "You saw it, you have been hurting her all the time. How dare you ask her to go back?"
"I... I didn't. I will apologize and I will spend the rest of my life making it up to her." Shu Baizhu was at a loss. She and Qin Yuhuan didn't have much contact. In her previous life, they were just nodding acquaintances.
The impression Qin Yuhuan left on her was still that of "that classmate with a miserable and pitiful life."
"How are you going to make it up to her? Do you think she hates you because she heard your conversation with your mother the day she left?" Qin Yuhuan found it ridiculous. "Just like that, she can only smile and wish you well. How stupid is she? After knowing her for over 20 years, don't you know it?"
If I weren't stupid, why would I keep giving? If I weren't stupid, why would I hypnotize myself, force myself to forget the hurt I've suffered, and take care of everyone's emotions.
Ziyi doesn't want her to be a good child, so similarly, Qin Yuhuan doesn't want Ziyi to be too good.
"That's..." Shu Baizhu's face turned pale, "That's because..."
"What did you do to her when she was thirty, Shu Baizhu?" Qin Yuhuan grabbed Shu Baizhu's hand and sneered, "Look at your habits, okay? You think you're a lesbian and you want to do it, don't you know you can't have long nails?"
"Or do you think that because Ziyi is strong, she is truly an iron wall that cannot be hurt?"
The thing Shu Baizhu feared most in her heart was revealed. The fear flowed through her blood vessels like an icy tide, freezing her bones. After Qin Yuhuan let go, she collapsed into the chair, her eyes blank.
"She...she remembered."
"Why, so you also know she doesn't remember," Qin Yuhuan said, growing angrier as he spoke. "She doesn't remember. Isn't that a second chance she gave you? Three times the limit. How could you possibly ask me to return her to you? Someone you don't cherish will naturally be cherished by others."
"How did she clean up the mess you left behind all by herself, covered in wounds? Did you ever ask her if it hurt? Did she apply medicine? Did you show any concern?" Qin Yuhuan could almost guess what Shu Baizhu, a weak and evasive person, would do and think afterward. "Did you wait tremblingly for someone to come by, playing dirty, only to receive a complacent smile and initiative? Do you think that letting this go was a tacit agreement between the two of you?"
"No!" Shu Baizhu retorted loudly, "No, I know, I know she forgot. I tried to test her, but she didn't remember anything. I thought about starting over, but at that time, my brother didn't have a job, so my mother asked him to be my assistant. He was always watching me, and I... I had no choice."
If she showed any signs of closeness to Ziyi, Shu Baizhen would turn around and tell Xiang Xueyan, and then her family would plot against her. "If I give Ziyi a smile or say something kind to her, they'll ask her for money. What can I do?"
"What can I do? What should I do? I don't have any way." Qin Yuhuan had heard this sentence from both Shu Baizhu. They seemed to be trapped in a vicious circle. They just wanted to swallow all the grievances and withstand all the pressure alone, but they forgot that Ziyi could be relied on and she was worthy of reliance.
Qin Yuhuan couldn't understand why Shu Baizhu fell into such a state. What was there that couldn't be discussed and worked through together?
"Have you never thought about telling Xiaozi? She would help you, wouldn't she? I don't believe she has never told you that 'it's okay as long as she's around'."
Shu Baizhu shook his head bitterly. "Do you know how big the gap is between her and me? When she said she liked me, I couldn't help but run to see if the sun was still hanging in the sky. But in fact, it actually ran to my side. I tried everything to make up for the gap between Xiaozi and me. Do you all think that I entered the entertainment industry just to give more money to my family?"
"Another reason is that I want to be as rich as her, and only the entertainment industry can satisfy me."
She was still young at that time and had not really experienced society. She only knew that the entertainment industry was the fastest way to make money. She thought that the only difference between her and Ziyi was money.
But in reality——
"No matter how hard I try, even if I win the Best Actress or Best Actress trophies, in the eyes of most people, I'm still just an entertainer, and Xiaozi... she's long been at the top of the youth ranks, a representative of youth honored by the government."
In terms of social status, they are very different.
"She knew about the situation at home, but she didn't know how miserable each of them was. Ziyi and I tried to cover up this by painting a picture of deep affection for our family. Only in this way... could I be in front of her..."
Shu Baizhu couldn't continue. In the end, she covered her face and cried, "It wasn't until she left completely that I realized that none of this mattered. Nothing was more important than having her alive by my side. I will tell everyone that I love her, instead of being a coward and pushing her away."
