Before Mu Zhen and his son Mu Sheng returned, Jiang Yi had already eaten and drunk her fill.
Shen Huixian and Mu Qian sat on the side, both looking somewhat embarrassed.
Jiang Yi was actually quite embarrassed. In name, she was Shen Huixian's daughter-in-law, but she wasn't.
"Auntie, don't think too much about it. Just think of it as a dream. When you wake up, everything will be back to normal!"
On the surface, this time and space seems like a sweet haven, but Jiang Yi now understands that it's not a sweet haven at all; it's an awkward haven.
As expected, I'm just not destined for that!
Jiang Yi increasingly felt that she was a cursed lone star.
"Thank you so much, my dear!"
After listening to Jiang Yi's words, Shen Huixian replied with this sentence after a long while.
Mu Qian, sitting next to her, suddenly asked, "So, should I call you sister-in-law or elder sister?"
"Call me 'sister-in-law' in public, but in private, you can call me whatever you want. You can call me Jiang Yi, it's my name anyway!"
What it's called doesn't matter; what matters is solving the task.
Jiang Yi is genuinely worried about this task.
She repeated the task time and time again, starting from scratch each time. What's most frustrating is that, to this day, she still doesn't know how to complete the task.
In fact, this mission, which seems to have three objectives, is actually only one in Jiang Yi's view: to save Mu Sheng.
The tragedy of this family began with the accident involving Mu Sheng and the elderly couple.
As long as Mu Sheng is saved, the rest should be easy to resolve.
But here's the crux of the problem: Jiang Yi doesn't know who Mu Sheng has offended or what trouble he's gotten himself into.
"Girl, how old are you?"
Looking at the silent Jiang Yi, Shen Huixian felt she should say something, so she started chatting with Jiang Yi about everyday things.
Jiang Yi was instantly dumbfounded. How old was she? This was a difficult question to answer.
She traveled through different eras, spending up to sixteen years in one era. So, should her age be counted based on her initial age or her later ages?
"Auntie, I'm twenty!"
Never mind, Jiang Yi simply gave a random answer.
Some say that a man is a boy until he dies.
So why can't she stay twenty forever?
Besides, with her mindset, she could easily say she's 16 years old.
"You're only a year older than Xiaoqian!"
"You've really gone through a lot of trouble!"
"Honey, tell me, what exactly happened?"
"How come you're here to help us?"
Shen Huixian kept asking questions, and Jiang Yi really couldn't answer them.
Of course, after Shen Huixian's continuous questioning, Jiang Yi finally understood why Mu Qian was such a know-it-all – it was clearly hereditary!
"Auntie, well, there are some things I don't understand either."
"Perhaps this is a kind of consciousness intersection in parallel universes."
"Or perhaps your daughter-in-law has a strong attachment to this, which is why I came!"
Under Shen Huixian's questions, Jiang Yi, for the first time, conducted an in-depth analysis of why she appeared in different time periods. It seemed that her appearance had changed some things.
Without her arrival, these things would have been destined to be regrets.
Could it be that I've acquired a regret-compensation system?
"I said, is that how it is?"
Jiang Yi silently questioned that unknown existence.
"If the host thinks it is, then it is!"
A virtual faceplate appeared and gave her a response that made her want to punch someone.
