The Mind-Read Heiress: From Impostor to Family Favorite-Chapter 647 - 372 Shen Jingxiu. Time

If线之 Shen Jingxiu. Time

Continued from prior text:

Wenyan cradled the lamp, which encased another world within.

Her gaze fell upon a slender hand, that clearly defined hand was hanging a lamp on a tree.

That lamp was identical to the one she held in her hands at that moment.

Wenyan felt an indescribable shock in her heart, and along with the shock, a sense of anticipation.

Was this the lamp Shen Jingxiu made for her?

That hand, it was his, wasn’t it??

Could this mean that she could return to that world?!

If it were truly possible, then the heavens were truly too kind!

But how could she get back there?

Wenyan turned the lamp this way and that, searching for any mechanism but found none.

Finally, she took the plunge and, without further thought, stepped directly into the water.

Strangely, in the midst of winter’s cold, the lake’s water was warm, not chilly at all!

When she realized this, Wenyan couldn’t help but laugh.

Because she knew that her return was now assured!

Sure enough, a strong light soon appeared before her eyes!

This time, it wasn’t just her consciousness, her entire being was swept into a vortex!

When she came to again, Wenyan felt something sticky on her face, as though something was licking her.

This sensation was highly unpleasant!

She opened her eyes abruptly.

What greeted her was indeed, a large, long tongue!

Don’t move, don’t move!

Facing that large tongue, Wenyan dared not make a single move.

It was only a horse, but Wenyan was still afraid of being trampled.

Still, she decided to cautiously cover her face with her hands.

As she was peeking at this new world through her fingers, a human voice suddenly rang out.

"Forty-six~ what are you doing?"

The voice sounded like that of an old man, who seemed to be walking toward her.

But there didn’t seem to be anyone else around.

Wenyan was puzzled, so had she become someone named Forty-six?

But why would someone have such a name?

Very soon, Wenyan realized she had thought too much.

It turned out that the name was of the horse that was licking her.

After the horse was called away, Wenyan finally got up.

"Are you alright?" the owner of the horse slowly approached and asked Wenyan with concern, "Where did you come from? I didn’t see you just now."

"Oh, I’m fine." Wenyan pointed casually, "I came from over there."

Glancing at herself, Wenyan noticed she was wearing the clothes from the previous world and, fortunately, had a packet of tissue in her pocket, which she quickly used to wipe her face.

After cleaning her face, she took a closer look at the old man.

He was tall, lean, with snow-white but luscious hair.

Although time had left its mark on his skin and frame, it was clear that he must have been quite handsome in his youth.

And even in old age, he was still very stylish.

He also looked amiable.

Wenyan decided to inquire about the current situation from him.

"Old sir, may I ask you a few questions?"

"You may ask."

"Here’s the thing. I was on a road trip with my friend, but on the way, we had a dispute, yes, we argued, and then she left me on the side of the road. Can I ask where this is?"

"This place? This is Lan County."

"Lan County?" This place name was very familiar to Wenyan; it was the must-pass location she knew from her first trip to Pit Number 46! So, she had travelled straight here.

Looking back, indeed, there was a large tree bedecked with Wind Chime Lamps.

She quickly continued to inquire, "This tree is beautiful; who hung these lamps? Do you know?"

"I did. I come to hang them every day."

"You?"

Upon hearing this response, Wenyan was somewhat disappointed, then fear struck her after the disappointment.

Was it possible that she had ventured into another unknown world?!

Was there no one from the Shen Family here?

She continued to press on, "Grandpa, may I ask if you know Shen Jinghe, an actor, very famous! Or Wenyan?"

The old man shook his head.

"Do you know of Shen Group?"

The old man shook his head again.

In that moment, Wenyan felt completely overwhelmed.

But then she thought, it was quite normal for someone his age not to know of film stars or certain companies.

It was just unfortunate that the mobile phone she had brought with her in her pocket had no signal and no internet; it was completely useless.

Having no other choice, she asked the old man, "Then do you have a mobile phone? I’d like to call my friend."

She still remembered her family members’ phone numbers to this day.

Alas, the old man shook his head again: "I don’t have the thing you’re talking about."
