Fang Wenwen can't actually remember exactly what happened back then.
Her mind was filled with fragmented thoughts, but she couldn't understand anything more detailed. She could only cover her head and let out a shrill scream.
As Yao Anna and the others stared at Fang Wenwen, whose emotions had completely collapsed, they felt that the situation before them was becoming increasingly unpredictable.
Song Mengmeng, however, remained calm and composed. Looking at Fang Wenwen, who was on the verge of emotional collapse, and combining that with the fragments she had just seen, her previous thoughts suddenly became clear, as if the clouds had parted and the sun had come out.
She originally thought it was a feud between an arrogant and domineering young lady and a poor girl, but to her surprise, the development of events overturned her judgment in a completely unexpected way.
"Have you heard of Metamorphosis?" Song Mengmeng asked with a smile as she looked at Fang Wenwen, who was still covering her head on the ground, unwilling to face reality. She didn't know whether to continue standing here and wait or to go up and comfort Fang Wenwen and the others.
Although Liu Song didn't know why Song Mengmeng would ask such a question that was completely unrelated to their current predicament, he still answered out of habit, "Not only have I heard of it, I've even watched that show!"
"In private schools, there are rich girls like Fang Wenwen who grow up carefree from wealthy families, and there are also poor girls like Yu Manman who come from impoverished families and whose only way out is to study."
Fang Wenwen, a pampered young lady, was well protected by her family from a young age and naturally had never experienced a family like Yu Manman's! She had a younger brother, but her parents and family only had eyes for him!
Therefore, Fang Wenwen took good care of Yu Manman from the very beginning. Even though she couldn't help with her studies, Fang Wenwen treated Yu Manman almost like her own sister in other aspects.
She even brought Yu Manman home more than once and introduced her family to her. The Fang family did not look down on Yu Manman because of her humble origins, but instead gave her a lot of care and help!
The Fang family's kindness brought Yu Manman a happiness and joy she had never experienced before.
But people are inherently greedy.
After experiencing the happiness of being cared for, Yu Manman felt more of the gap between the life she longed for and the reality of her life!
No one who has experienced true happiness would want to go through pain again!
Therefore, Yu Manman's state of mind gradually became distorted under such stark contrast! She even harbored the hope that she could replace Fang Wenwen!
"No, that's not how it is!" Fang Wenwen could not agree with Song Mengmeng's words no matter what!
She shook her head frantically, screaming as she tried to deny Song Mengmeng's analysis: "That's not how it is! That wasn't the gang leader at all, it was just showing off!"
Fang Wenwen was domineering and arrogant at school. The reason she treated Yu Manman that way was simply because she wanted to show off to others!
"So, you're admitting you're not Fang Wenwen!" Song Mengmeng narrowed her eyes, a smug smile spreading across her face. "Let me guess, you're actually Yu Manman, right?!"
Fang Wenwen, who had been screaming and protesting, turned deathly pale. Her lips trembled, and she stiffly raised her head like a still from a still animation, staring at Song Mengmeng: "No, that's not it!"
Although she vehemently denied it, her guilty attitude easily revealed the truth!
The 'Fang Wenwen' in front of me is a complete imposter!
She didn't know how she used to complete the soul swap between the two! This swap not only changed their physical appearances, but also their identities, destinies, and everything else!
In other words, Yu Manman stole everything that originally belonged to Fang Wenwen!
"This is too outrageous! If your analysis is really correct, then even if others can't see it, wouldn't Fang Wenwen's parents and family also see that something is wrong?" Although Song Mengmeng was now more than 90% sure about this deduction, Liu Song and the others were just ordinary people after all. Even if they had read many supernatural stories, in fact, in their understanding, everything was still just legends!
It's still quite difficult for them to accept such a bizarre situation as the soul swap before them.
Song Mengmeng wasn't in a hurry. She just quietly looked at Fang Wenwen, who was in a daze. Her tone was very calm, without any disdain or comfort, only a hint of businesslike indifference: "You should know best in your heart who you really are!"
You should also understand that if something is not yours, even if you steal it, it can never truly belong to you!
Even if you've possessed it for so long, when the time comes to repay it, you must do so!
"Why should I pay it back?! Everything I have now is mine! Mine!"
I am Fang Wenwen, the pampered young lady with a perfect family background. Even if you find out, what can you do to me?! Are you going to go around telling everyone that I was once a poor girl who couldn't even afford three meals a day?!
Who would believe that?!
"You shouldn't be thinking about the future, but about the present. Because given what you've done, I can't guarantee you'll even have a future."
Seeing that Yu Manman had completely given up and laid her cards on the table, Song Mengmeng, who was being directly confronted, was not angry. However, the curve of her lips was full of sarcasm, which made Yu Manman, who was already in a state of panic, lose her temper and glared at Song Mengmeng again, shouting without regard for the consequences: "So what? If I can't get out, none of you can get out either!"
As far as Fang Wenwen is concerned, I deserve to die!
But even if I die, you will all be buried with me. Compared to that, I guess it's worth it!
"That's not necessarily true." Song Mengmeng shook her head slightly, interrupting Yu Manman's rambling without any politeness. She took a step back, creating some distance between herself and Yu Manman, before continuing, "You forgot, the condition for us to get out of here is to find out the truth about what happened back then and give the real Fang Wenwen justice!"
But if all of us are trapped and die here with you, how can the truth be revealed to the world?!
To outsiders, and to Fang Wenwen's parents and family, if no one tells them the truth, you will still be their beloved daughter, not that imposter who usurped their place!
