Chapter 236 Return to the Modern Times



When Xiao Liyue woke up, she found herself drifting near a blue planet. Although she couldn't remember who she was or why she was here, she still flew towards the nearby planet out of curiosity.

She didn't know how long she had been flying before she arrived at a blue sea. From afar, she saw a corpse floating on the sea.

There was a shark nearby slowly approaching the body, and she couldn't help but fly over out of curiosity.

The shark seemed to sense something and swam away in fear.

Looking at the girl who just died in front of me, she looked only about seventeen years old. It's such a pity.

When Xiao Liyue was about to pick up her body, as soon as his hand touched the corpse, his soul was strangely sucked in by the girl.

When the spirit entered the girl's body, a golden light shot straight into the sky.

Xiao Liyue was floating on the sea and was shocked to see that her soul had merged with this body.

As her soul merged with the corpse, she saw all her experiences over the past seventeen years from the girl's body.

The girl was an orphan who was abandoned in an orphanage in a small town as soon as she was born. She had never been to school and had no name. The director called her Erya.

Because the orphanage was located in a remote mountain town and everyone in the nearby villages already had children, no one was willing to adopt the child.

So basically, the children were raised by the director's mother, and then when they grew up, they went out to work. Although she adopted abandoned children, the orphanage was closed after the director's mother died in a car accident two years ago.

The children in the orphanage were also adopted by the orphanage in the city, but who knew that the staff who went to pick up the children were actually human traffickers. So the children were sold to all parts of the world, including the original body herself.

Although the original person was lucky enough to escape, she was an illegal resident, young and without an ID card, so she couldn't find a job at all.

In the past two years, she has been living by picking up waste at the beach and selling it for money. Fortunately, the director's mother also taught her some simple words and some arithmetic, so she was not cheated or starved.

She drowned because she saw a lot of bottles drifting in the sea today, so she went forward to pick them up, but was knocked down by a wave and swept into the sea.

The original body, which couldn't swim, drowned to death.

Xiao Liyue didn't expect that the girl in this body had such a miserable life, nameless and without a surname, so pitiful.

But come to think of it, she herself seemed to have forgotten her own name. So, she and this girl seemed to have a connection.

Since she had just taken control of this body, she flew up as usual, but she fell down after flying just a few meters high. She flew up and down for a long time before she finally reached the shore.

As night fell, the original body's home was in a village one kilometer away from the seaside, living in a small room in the backyard of Grandma Xu.

There are many elderly people in the village, and they often give her some vegetables grown at home out of pity for her.

Erya usually helps the elderly with farm work, and lives a leisurely and comfortable life.

Grandma Xu, who lived nearby, saw the figure coming from afar and shouted excitedly, "Er Ya...is that you?"

Xiao Liyue didn't react for a moment. She was stunned for a few seconds before she slowly said, "Yes! It's me, grandma."

When she saw that it was her, Granny Xu said with a worried look on her face: "Erya! Why did you come back so late? Didn't I tell you not to go to the beach to collect waste because the waves are big today? Why did you come back all wet? Come to Granny's house quickly, I'll find you some clean clothes to change into."

Before she could refuse, Xiao Liyue was forcibly pulled into the house by Grandma Xu.

I saw Grandma Xu rummaging through the mahogany wardrobe, and soon she took out a pink floral dress and handed it to her.

"Come here, Erya. This is my granddaughter-in-law's skirt. It has only been worn once and has been with me for more than ten years. You should change into it quickly. You're wearing wet clothes, so be careful not to catch a cold." Grandma Xu handed her the pink floral skirt.

Xiao Liyue didn't act pretentiously. She took the skirt and put it on.

Granny Xu looked at her frail body and couldn't help but said distressedly, "Erya! Granny is leaving here tomorrow and going to live in the Imperial City. The children are worried about me staying here alone, so they insisted on taking Granny away. After Granny leaves, you, a little girl, will stay here alone in the future. You must take good care of yourself."

"And one more thing! You will live with grandma from now on. It would be a waste if you don't live here. Just live with grandma. Oh, here is 5,000 yuan. You can keep it for yourself and don't have to give it back to grandma. You have helped grandma with farm work in the past two years. Last time I fell and couldn't move, you took grandma to the hospital. So don't refuse this money, or grandma will be angry."

Xiao Liyue looked at the stack of red bills in her hand and felt warm in her heart.

"Thank you, grandma. I will pay you back when I make money in the future."

Granny Xu had no intention of asking her to pay it back, but she still responded happily: "Okay, when you make money, come to City A to see me!"

"Um!"

That night, because Granny Xu was about to leave, she was reluctant to let Xiao Liyue stay and sleep with her for one night because she had lived with her for her entire life.

The two chatted a lot, but it was basically Grandma Xu who did all the talking, with Xiao Liyue replying a sentence or two from time to time.

It was not until the old lady fell asleep that Xiao Liyue turned around and looked at her. She could see her past and future at a glance.

She also knew that she would die in an accident in three months. In order to save her life, she gently touched her forehead with her finger, and a golden red light lit up on her forehead.

After finishing everything, Xiao Liyue lay down weakly. Perhaps it was because she had just merged into this body, so she did not have much divine power.

No one knew how long it had been before she slowly fell asleep. After she fell asleep, the spiritual energy within a hundred miles slowly flowed towards her body.

The eighty-year-old Grandma Xu who was sleeping next to her also slept until eight o'clock. When she woke up, she found that she seemed to be decades younger. Her waist and legs were no longer sore, which made her very happy.

Looking at Xiao Liyue who was still sleeping, she went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

In her sleep, Xiao Liyue smelled a fragrance and opened her eyes. She felt hungry in her stomach, so she got up, put on her sandals, and followed the smell to the kitchen.

When Granny Xu saw her wake up, she said happily, "Er Ya, you're awake! Granny made seafood porridge for you. Go to the sink and brush your teeth and wash your face first. Oh, Granny has put a new toothbrush and a cup on the sink. Just use them. Come over for breakfast after you finish washing up."

"Okay, grandma."

But before leaving, Xiao Liyue discovered that Grandma Xu seemed to be much younger and her hands and feet were more nimble. You know, she was trembling when she walked last night, but today she walked very swiftly.

She didn't think much about it and went straight to the sink in the bathroom to wash up.
