That night, Xiang Chen had run into ‘Xiang Yi’ at the hospital.
After hearing of his sister’s car accident, he immediately pushed off his work and rushed to the hospital.
After staying by his sister’s bed for a few hours, he started to feel drowsy and dozed off beside her bed.
Soon, the fake person woke up and began to judge him from the edge of the bed.
Xiang Chen opened his eyes to meet her gaze. It was strange.
Xiang Chen didn’t think too much of it and asked in a low voice, “Are you hungry? Want some congee?”
The girl blinked. When she spoke, her voice was almost cringeworthy. “Big Brother, you’re the best.”
Xiang Chen immediately noticed something was off.
“Big Brother, I want you to sleep with me for a bit longer.” The girl flexibly crawled onto the bed and burrowed into the man’s arms. Her hands slid into the man’s shirtsleeve and flirtatiously stroked his wrist.
That person had his beloved sister’s face, yet her words that came out of her mouth disgusted him.
Xiang Chen snatched her neck, his body as cold as frost and powerful enough to crush anything to pieces.
“What did you do with my little sister?!”
The fake Xiang Yi glared as a sliver of fear appeared in her gaze.
His hands tightened, and the counterfeit’s face turned red as a pig’s liver as the feeling of suffocation surged.
At the final juncture.
Reason returned to him.
Xiang Chen retracted his hand as he felt his chest surge with heat. “I’ll ask you again. Where is my sister?”
The counterfeit realized that he wasn’t going to attack her. She played deaf and ignorant, refusing to answer any of his questions.
Afterwards, Xiang Chen took her to the most internationally acclaimed psychologists and therapists. He was a staunch materialist, yet in light of the situation, he had turned to theology for help.
There was no progress until Grandpa Xiang, a longtime practitioner of Taoist ideals, personally did a checkup and came to the conclusion:
External possession.
In layman’s terms, something unclean had infiltrated and possessed her body.
Xiang Chen smoked most of the night away before accepting this reality, after which he came up with a series of regulations that restricted ‘Xiang Yi’s’ activities.
It’s just that he didn’t have to explain this to his sister.
Xiang Chen pulled out a napkin and handed it over. “Wipe your mouth.”
Obediently, Xiang Yi listened.
Xiang Chen: “Xiang Li told me his deductions, and our theories aligned.”
Xiang Yi was startled. Did that mean ‘that person’ could possibly return?
“Since a main system already exists that helps you travel the world, can’t you report this kind of bug? Can you still contact the system?”
This reminded Xiang Yi. She couldn’t contact them now, but…Xiao Naofu might be able to!
It was time to take Xiao Naofu home.
“I’ll think of a way.” After untangling the knot in her heart and setting out a plan for the future, Xiang Yi sniffled and sadly exclaimed, “Big Brother, wouldn’t it be nice if our whole family transmigrated…”
Xiang Chen frowned. “What? Were you bullied!”
“Yah! I was beaten so many times! Especially in the martial arts and Xian Xia world!” Perhaps in Xiang Yi’s heart, her big brother was the most trustworthy and dependable. Like a naive child who complained to her parents, she continued on: “If you were there, there would only exist the reality of our family beating up others!”
Xiang Chen: “…”
What did his sister see him as?
Xiang Yi continued to daydream. “Eldest Brother will be in charge of beating people, Second Brother will be in charge of cheating people, Third Brother will be in charge of bullying people, Fourth Brother will be in charge of being mean, and the Little Uncle… eh… can be our mascot?”
She thought about it, conflicted. “Maybe we can leave him here.”
A soft scoff sounded, muffled and sultry.
Every inch of the man’s sharp edges seemed to soften as his lips unfolded into a rare and gentle curve.
Indeed… Her brother was smiling.
