Chapter 10: Why Didn’t You Say That I Was Possessed by a Ghost?

She had forgotten that everyone here was extremely familiar with Jiang Yi, and she was just an outsider who occupied her body.

Her every frown and smile might make people suspicious.

A thin layer of sweat appeared on Jiang Yi’s palm. “I’ve thought it through.”

Zuo Fei looked at Jiang Yi for a while and nodded with a smile. “It’s good that you’ve thought it through.”

She looked at Zuo Fei in shock.

“What happened?”

“I thought you’d ask something.”

“I’ve always thought of you as a friend. It must be a good thing for a friend to figure things out. I won’t ask further.”

Zuo Fei picked up the teapot and poured her a cup of water.

“But, to be honest, I like you the way you are.”

Zuo Fei recalled the previous Jiang Yi. The difference was too great, and it was impossible to associate her with the same person.

“You know Professor Lin?”

Jiang Yi retracted her emotions. “I used to admire him very much and never had the guts to choose what I liked, but now…”

Jiang Yi’s words were half-truths. She was lying to the boy in front of her.

Everything she said might not be the truth.

At this moment, she couldn’t tell if this person was friend or foe.

“Uncle Jiang really doesn’t like you entering this industry, but if you really like it, you can fight for it.”

Jiang Yi was stunned by Zuo Fei’s mention of Uncle Jiang. She stared at him in surprise, as if she didn’t expect Zuo Fei to know the Jiang family.

“Mm…” Jiang Yi nodded lightly.

She could not say any more unnecessary words. She was afraid that she would expose herself if she continued.

“Zuo Fei?”

A surprised voice came from not far away. Zuo Fei looked sideways and saw Jiang Si bringing a few friends over to eat.

“The two of you…” Everyone seemed to know the deeper meaning behind this. They looked at each other, unable to understand the situation in front of them.

Everyone knew that Zuo Fei used to avoid Jiang Yi.

The Jiang family and the Zuo family could be considered to be acquaintances. Jiang Yi’s feelings for Zuo Fei were also known by everyone. Zuo Fei did not give her an answer because he did not want the two families to have any conflicts. Every time he saw Jiang Yi, he would avoid her.

But today… the two of them were sitting together for a meal.

It was really… difficult to get used to.

“Why don’t we have a meal together?” Zuo Fei sat on the chair and looked at the girls in front of him.

His posture was relaxed, giving off a sense of rejection.

“Zuo Fei, it can’t be! Before she got engaged, you kept a distance from her. Now that she’s engaged, why are you in a hurry? Aren’t you going to avoid suspicion?”

Someone in the crowd mocked.

Jiang Yi sat on the chair and looked at everyone. She stared at Jiang Si.

“Eating with her means he’s chasing after her? Can I think that he’s sucking up to Jiang Si when he’s eating with her?”

Zuo Fei’s gentle and refined aura was instantly gone. He looked at the group of people with ill intentions and did not speak in a good tone.

Jiang Yi had a strange feeling. Logically speaking, ordinary people would not argue with a group of women in front of outsiders just to protect a woman. Of course, if that person was the person he loved, it would be a different matter.

However, Jiang Yi knew that there was no such relationship between her and Zuo Fei.

“So protective? Zuo Fei, what are you implying?”

“In any case, he doesn’t mean to be your stepfather,” Jiang Yi said coldly. The way she looked at them gave them the feeling that she was not easy to talk to.

Everyone looked at Jiang Yi in disbelief. “Jiang Yi, are you crazy?”

Heh… Jiang Yi sneered. “Why don’t you say that I’m possessed?”

“You…”

Jiang Si reached out to block the person who was about to compete with Jiang Yi. “Forget it. I still have class in the afternoon. Let’s hurry up and leave after eating!”

When Jiang Si left, she glanced at Jiang Yi with a scheming look in her eyes.

“Are you alright?” Zuo Fei looked at Jiang Yi worriedly.

Jiang Yi nodded. “Let’s go!”

When she returned to school, Jiang Yi saw a black car parked by the roadside from afar. The license plate number was especially eye-catching, and the special pass for the negotiation department was placed on the driver’s seat. For a moment, Jiang Yi thought that she had seen herself in the past.

“What’s wrong?” Zuo Fei saw her stop and felt a little strange.

He was about to say something.

In the corridor, Lin Bo and a young man in a black suit supported each other as they walked out. Their eyes were red and they were silent. Behind them, Professor Lin’s wife was wiping her tears with a tissue.

The man was tall and wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He had a gentle and refined aura. He did not look like a typical person.

The few of them hugged and bade farewell. Jiang Yi stood under the tree and silently watched the scene in front of her.

She watched as the man drove away.

Her toes moved slightly, and the moment the car brushed past her, Jiang Yi followed.

After running three to five meters, her footsteps came to an abrupt halt.

Why was she following him? What would she tell him?

Should she tell him that her soul had transmigrated?

And?

What should she do?

Hide this fact?

Let everything in the darkness remain in the darkness?

Jiang Yi stood in the middle of the boulevard and looked at the departing car in silence for a long time.

She looked at the people around her who were grieving for her death, but she could not do anything.

Shee could only watch helplessly.

“Jiang Yi, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing. I’ll leave first.” Jiang Yi reached out to pat Zuo Fei’s hand away and carried her school bag in another direction.

His entire body was filled with hostility.

In the afternoon, Jiang Yi left school and went to the Jiang family’s residence in the south of the city. She sat in a cafe near the hospital staff room for the entire afternoon.

She listened to the people beside her discussing her death.

The sighs and helplessness in their words made her heart ache, but there was no way to change it.

That night, the Jiang family’s house in Jiangnan Garden was brightly lit.

Jiang Yi did not return after dark, and no one picked up the phone. Yi Tian was anxious.

Jiang Ze and Jiang Chuan both returned from work.

Yi Tian paced around the living room anxiously like an ant on a hot pan. “How is it? Should we call the police?”

“I’m afraid that’s not appropriate.”

“How is it inappropriate? How is it inappropriate? Didn’t you see the antidepressants in Yiyi’s room? How are we going to live if something happens?” Jiang Ze’s inappropriate words made Yi Tian furious.

They had been married for more than 20 years and rarely quarreled.

Jiang Ze pursed his lips and thought for a while before nodding.

The news of Jiang Ze calling the police alarmed the old master.

At this moment, Fu Xiting had just come out of a social gathering. Guan Qing drove him home.

As soon as the car started, Fu Xiting pulled on his tie and rolled down the window. The moment he looked sideways, a figure curled up at the bus stop by the roadside. Her high ponytail was loose and she looked like she was about to collapse. It was a hot night and it was about to rain. She was curled up at the bus stop, looking like a stray dog no matter how he looked at her.

“Stop the car.” The man’s deep voice sounded.

Although Guan Qing was puzzled, he stopped the car.

Fu Xiting pushed open the car door and got out of the car. He walked towards the bus stop.
