Help! The Frosty Noble's Son Is in Love With Me!-Chapter 432: I’m a Transmigrator

Qu Fulan was not only shocked by Xiao Shiqing knowing, but also by his words. He said she was missing. Was the "she" he referred to the original owner?

That’s why he was so agitated.

But where is the original owner? When did she appear? Why didn’t she know?

Suddenly, she recalled the dream that night, Li Hua entered her dream...

Could it be Li Hua?

But later she met Li Hua, and she seemed fine. No, Qu Fulan realized something was off. Li Hua was indeed fine, but she seemed different somehow. Could it be that the original owner was in her body before, and now the original owner has left?

And Xiao Shiqing knew because he met the original owner? Have they recognized each other?

This isn’t the time to delve into these questions. If she let Xiao Shiqing continue his madness, she wouldn’t be able to keep any secrets.

"Stop causing a scene. If there’s anything to say, let’s find an appropriate place to discuss it. You don’t want things to get out of hand, do you?" Qu Fulan said coldly to Xiao Shiqing.

After an incense stick’s time, in a certain teahouse.

The three sat at a table: Pei Ji’an, Qu Fulan, and Xiao Shiqing.

At this point, Qu Fulan could not talk to Xiao Shiqing alone without Pei Ji’an, and he wouldn’t agree to it either.

If Xiao Shiqing truly knew everything, she wouldn’t be able to keep it hidden anyhow.

The things Xiao Shiqing said before, about possessing her and using her body—these were unclear and easily misunderstood. They needed to be clarified.

Xiao Shiqing was eager to find Li Hua, so he didn’t care about Pei Ji’an, besides, as Qu Fulan’s husband, he should have already known and there was nothing to hide.

Finally, after Xiao Shiqing’s account, Qu Fulan was utterly shocked.

The original owner really had appeared, and even exchanged souls with Xiao Shiqing. But now, the original owner’s soul had disappeared.

"When I saw Li Hua, I knew it wasn’t her. I tried probing with a few words, and she was unaware. I even observed for a few days to be completely certain it wasn’t her. Since she wasn’t in that body, she must have returned to her original body, but I haven’t seen any trace of her. You’re not her, so tell me where she’s gone?"

Xiao Shiqing seemed like a lost child, speaking with hesitation.

After regaining his memory, he tried hard not to disturb her, but why did she still leave? Where did she go? Is she still in this world, or...

Xiao Shiqing dared not think further, he could only come to Qu Fulan for confirmation. She, using her body, must know something.

"She... she might have gone to reincarnate. That night, she came into my dream to say goodbye."

It was just Qu Fulan’s guess; she couldn’t say for certain.

Thinking back, Li Hua did say this: "I’m leaving first."

What did she mean by leaving first?

Could it be that she had to follow closely?

What did the original owner know? Was that sentence implying something?

Qu Fulan kept these doubts to herself to prevent Xiao Shiqing from losing his mind.

Upon hearing the timing, Xiao Shiqing’s entire demeanor seemed as if his spirit had been drained, and he became gloomy.

That night... he remembered; he also had a dream. He dreamed of her back walking forward, he was chasing after her but could never catch up, and she eventually vanished. He woke up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night.

Because of this, he went to see her the next day, secretly. That’s when he noticed something was not right.

So she really left...

She said goodbye to Qu Fulan before leaving, but not to him.

When Xiao Shiqing left, he was utterly despondent, with no light left in his eyes.

If Qu Fulan knew this was the last time she would see Xiao Shiqing alive, and the next news of him would be his death, perhaps she would not stop him.

Someone determined to die cannot be stopped.

Besides, she still had to provide a reasonable explanation to Pei Ji’an, given how much he had heard, unsure of how many questions it raised in his mind.

"What does it mean to exchange souls? What do you mean you used her body? What kind of riddle were you two talking about?" Pei Ji’an indeed asked about his confusion.

It wasn’t that he didn’t dare to imagine; it all happened too suddenly and was unlike anything he’d experienced before, making it hard for anyone to quickly accept.

Qu Fulan sighed softly. What she had tried so hard to conceal was now being revealed in this manner, perhaps it was fate.

"If I tell you, I traveled here, and I’m just a soul, would you believe me?"

Pei You’an stared at her. If Xiao Shiqing hadn’t caused a scene today and she suddenly claimed this, he might have thought she was joking. Even though he dreamt many things, he ultimately believed them dreams. Even when he thought of past lives, he never considered her simply a soul.

The man’s handsome face showed no emotion, and Qu Fulan, holding her teacup, felt a bit nervous despite knowing his character; facing such a matter still made her tense.

"Don’t you believe me?"

Pei Ji’an, seeing her expression, softened his demeanor, "No, I believe you."

"Then, do you think I’m..."

"No."

He denied it before she could finish her sentence.

Qu Fulan was moved, and she continued to recount everything about her transmigration from the modern world.

Pei Ji’an listened attentively, and in the end, he asked solemnly, "Will you leave again?"

"I probably won’t, I should be dead in that world."

Dead, so naturally, she couldn’t go back.

Hearing this, Pei Ji’an didn’t say much but pulled her into a firm embrace.

He suddenly understood why his master said his Jade Pendant could stabilize her soul. It was such a matter.

No, if his jade had this function, why did he also need this pendant?

...

The news of Xiao Shiqing’s death came two days later.

It’s said that in front of Mrs. Xiao, he kowtowed several times to thank her for raising him, then said he had a debt to pay to someone else, and with that, he drew a knife and slit his own throat.

Mrs. Xiao went mad afterward.

Upon hearing the news, Qu Fulan felt indescribable.

Xiao Shiqing had learned everything, and knowing his stubborn nature, it wasn’t surprising he would do such a thing to repay a debt.

After all, the original owner in the previous life was indeed persecuted to that extent by the Xiao Family.

With Xiao Shiqing gone, the political situation shifted.

The Emperor and Pei Ji’an jointly governed for a year before restoring the balance of the court.

During that year, the Emperor named a Crown Prince, who was the child of a concubine with no significant maternal family background, of a similar age to Le.

This Prince played with Li like brothers, so naturally, their future ruler-courtier relationship would be smooth.

Li, being smart, started accompanying the Crown Prince in the Imperial Study Room early on to handle affairs with Emperor Pei. Though his skills were somewhat immature, his talent as an assistant was evident.

Originally, the Emperor intended to appoint Pei Ji’an as the Regent King to assist the young emperor and also mentor Pei Yi.

But Pei Ji’an voluntarily resigned. Even without him, the court had reached a balanced state, and with Li’s talents, he knew he could handle everything.

Many talented people emerge with each generation, each unrivaled for hundreds of years.

Pei Ji’an just wanted to take Qu Fulan, travel through mountains and rivers, and live the life they desired.

But they did not expect that just as they were about to set off, the Jade Pendant Pei Ji’an wore disappeared.

It wasn’t lost or stolen; it simply vanished.
