Chapter 66: Are You Really Her?

Jiang Sheng immediately asked back, “What’s wrong with missing one?” noticing her strange reaction.

“Missing one… what could be wrong?” Ning Qiutang couldn’t explain herself, her heart felt like it was being scratched, words were on the tip of her tongue but she couldn’t utter a single one.

Her mind went blank, she felt that the prayer beads were important, but she couldn’t say why.

Jiang Sheng stared at her with a strange expression, slowly speaking, “You forgot.”

Ning Qiutang was stuck, did she forget?

“I don’t know.”

The blue under Jiang Sheng’s eyes made his eyes look dark and cold, he asked without hesitation, “So you were cold and distant towards me at first because of the dream you had, you thought Shen Wanwan and I should be together, in the dream you angered me because you liked me, and I cruelly hurt you, so you changed overnight, and the most urgent thing was to stay away from me.”

He said it so clearly, without any preamble, Ning Qiutang was stunned, staring at his gloomy and arrogant face in shock.

She couldn’t help but nod.

“Are you sure it’s really me, did I really torture you to death?”

Seeing her admit it, Jiang Sheng didn’t feel particularly happy, which meant that maybe the dream wasn’t a dream, who knows about past lives?

Shen Wanwan wasn’t Shen Wanwan.

Ning Qiutang might not be Ning Qiutang either.

Ning Qiutang couldn’t answer him, if it was before she could confidently say, yes, it was him, she was tortured to death by him.

But now she couldn’t be sure, there was a voice telling her not to hate Jiang Sheng, to believe him.

She shook her head, speechless.

But Jiang Sheng grabbed her arm tightly, his eyes like a hawk, coldly staring at her, “What about you, Ning Qiutang, who are you?”

“Are you her?”

In his understanding, they were from the same world, but if Ning Qiutang was like Shen Wanwan, an outsider, he could almost be sure that if he really tortured her to death, there was only one possibility, that she wasn’t Ning Qiutang.

Ning Qiutang instantly understood his question, seeing the same murderous intent in his eyes as in her previous life, she immediately pushed him away!

“Jiang Sheng, can’t you tell if I’m Ning Qiutang or not!”

“Can you really not tell?”

“If someone really controlled me, would you be able to tell?”

Jiang Sheng’s face was extremely cold, he grabbed her back without hesitation, looking at her face, which was slightly different from his memory, he couldn’t even tell which part of his memory was real.

He suddenly hugged her tightly, his voice rarely carrying a hint of confusion, “Ningning, I only have you, I only have you!”

In this world where truth and falsehood were indistinguishable, Ning Qiutang was the only person he could trust, the only person he felt was real.

He had to hold onto her.

Ning Qiutang’s face was pressed against his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat, her eyes turned red, she didn’t hug him back, she just whispered, “Are you afraid?”

She was also afraid, after living for so many years, she suddenly found out that the world was not what she thought it was, and even someone was trying to prevent them from discovering the truth.

“I’m not afraid, I just don’t know, I don’t know anything.” Jiang Sheng’s heart calmed down, he slowly let go of her, looking down at the girl’s beautiful and delicate face.

Ning Qiutang also had many things she didn’t know, she still showed a smile, firmly said to him, “If it’s destined, then it seems that heaven is on our side, otherwise we would really be clueless.”

According to the several strange things that happened, the “person” who stopped them would not have let them know the truth if they really didn’t want them to know. They wouldn’t have let them be reborn, nor would they have made Jiang Sheng different from others.

“Let’s find a place to talk slowly.”

Jiang Sheng hummed in agreement, and they walked towards the reading pavilion. The campus was filled with the sound of reading, everyone focused on their own business, no one paid attention to them.

The boy and girl in blue and white school uniforms sat down, the morning sun inadvertently fell on them.

Jiang Sheng spoke first: “I took the Buddhist beads to a testing agency and found out that it’s my heart.”

“Huh?” Even though Ning Qiutang knew that this world was absurd, she didn’t expect it to be this absurd. You’re saying this thing is your heart?

Jiang Sheng looked at her strange expression and continued: “Don’t worry, I rechecked, my heart is intact.”

“But the strange thing is, this bead detected my DNA, as well as the heart’s tissue structure. It’s blood red when soaked in decomposition fluid, and it has a bloody smell.”

Ning Qiutang couldn’t figure out what was going on with this Buddhist bead, so she said: “This was brought from the temple, maybe we should ask the master of the temple or Grandpa Jiang.”

Jiang Sheng nodded: “Go together after school?”

Ning Qiutang thought there was nothing else to do, so going to see what was going on wouldn’t hurt.

The two fell silent.

Ning Qiutang then said: “What you said just now is right, your suspicion is also right, I am indeed not the same Ning Qiutang as before.”

“What I mean is, the previous me and the current me are different because I experienced past lives and present lives, so I’ve become enlightened. And the dream I talked about is real.”

“As for you saying whether I can be sure it’s you, I’m sorry, I really can’t be sure. Because I feel like my memory has problems.”

“So, to get back to the point, why are you suddenly paying attention to me?”

“Because I think you and Shen Wanwan should be the same kind of person. And before I put on the Buddhist beads, I had a physiological aversion to you. It’s not that I want to, but there’s another force that makes me dislike you. I feel uncomfortable whenever I get close to you.”

Jiang Sheng was also explaining, because only by being open and honest could they truly trust each other.

“But I still want to get close to you. Since He doesn’t allow it, I have to resist even more. I try my best to be with you, maybe I can find out something.”

Ning Qiutang thought for a moment: “So the wound on your hand is to resist that force?”

“Yeah.” Jiang Sheng looked at her deeply, feeling that the sun was just right today, falling on her as if it was coated with a layer of gold.

Ning Qiutang heard what he said and basically confirmed that there was indeed something at work, that is, the so-called system.

She was about to tell him her discovery, but she found that she couldn’t speak when she wanted to.

She was stunned, a chill spread from her back, she stared at Jiang Sheng and closed her mouth.

Jiang Sheng suddenly reached out and cupped her face, they looked at each other and he asked directly: “Is there something stopping you from speaking?”

Ning Qiutang found that she couldn’t even nod, she blinked a few times, her eyes exceptionally bright.

Jiang Sheng stared at her eyes, took off the Buddhist beads from his wrist and put them on her wrist.

“Now?”
