Chapter 341 - Epilogue 1: Wei Xiao Hua In Alternate Modern World (1)

Bang!

Falling from her chair, Wei Xiao Hua looked at the familiar ceiling. Her eyes watered, making her vision blurry, and her body felt hurt. She felt as if a sword had just sliced through her neck just now. 

It hurts….

It hurts so much…

"Xiao Hua, what are you doing?"

Wei Xiao Hua raised her head and looked to the side. A familiar face appeared before her, a face that she hadn't seen for the past two years and thought that she would never see in her entire life anymore.

"Yan'er…"

"Are you alright? Shall I call a doctor? You fall quite hard." The woman named Yan'er asked the questions in worry.

Wei Xiao Hua looked at the person before her and then shook her head lightly. She saw the area around her as she noticed that she was back in the familiar world. There was a wooden desk and comfortable chair not far from her. There were several documents placed neatly on her table along with her other items.

She had returned back…

Back to the modern world…

"This…." Tears streamed out from the corner of her eyes. She had missed this world very much. For the past two years, she was struggling to live in a completely different world, unaware whether she would have the chance to return back to her real world or not.

Yan'er was stunned when she saw Wei Xiao Hua started to cry. She hurriedly extended her hand and tried to help Wei Xiao Hua up. "Xiao Hua, what happened to you? Are you alright? Did someone bully you?"

"What? Oh, no… I just felt the story is sad."

"Geez, story again? Just how many times would you read the same story?"

"Sorahana's stories are interesting," Wei Xiao Hua defended herself. She wiped her tears and started to look around. At this time, she noticed that she was still holding her phone. Her heart tightened a bit.

Did the storyline change because she entered the novel?

Or did everything that happen was nothing more but a dream? Still, it all felt too real to just be a dream.

The feeling, the touch, the fear, and also the experience. Everything that happened for the past two years in that world was printed clear in Wei Xiao Hua's mind. It didn't look like a dream at all.

'But if it was real...no, it must be just a dream…'

Yan'er shrugged. "Anyway, it'll be the end of the work hour soon. I'll finish my work first then we can go and grab a drink."

"En."

"En?" Yan'er was stunned. She looked at Wei Xiao Hua and extended her hand to touch the latter's forehead. "Are you still dreaming? Why did you suddenly use shy speech with me?"

Wei Xiao Hua was speechless. Now that she thought about it, she would never use 'en' when she agreed to Yan'er in the past. Using it did feel weird for her, but it was not like it was intentional. Living for two years in the ancient world did affect her a little bit.

It took her some time to convince Yan'er that she was fine before Wei Xiao Hua corrected her chair and sat down. Her eyes were looking at her phone. Taking a deep breath, Wei Xiao Hua swipe the screen open. The screen was still showing WN app with the last chapter she opened when she was reading back then.

'The time didn't change too. It felt as if I only leave for 2 minutes like sleeping?'

Wei Xiao Hua didn't know, but she chose to just read the novel. The reason why she chose to read this novel in the first place was because the name of the main protagonist was the same as her. Later on, she genuinely liked the story because of the extensive world and interesting storyline.

As she read, Wei Xiao Hua noticed that the story was progressing in the same storyline as what she had known previously with no change like what happened to her.

Wei Xiao Hua started to read the part when Ji Shu battled with Prince Ji Sheng.

*

'You have lost.'

'You're not bad, Imperial Brother,' Prince Ji Sheng said with a smile. Trail of blood came out from the corner of his lips.

Ji Shu looked at his older brother and sneered. 'I can't lose this battle, Ji Sheng. Don't blame me for what I have done for the throne.'

'No, I'll not blame you, Ji Shu. Everyone had a reason why to do what they did.' Prince Ji Sheng coughed. He looked at the sky with a sad smile. 'And I had already lost the reason for me to win the battle.'

Ji Shu didn't mock Prince Ji Sheng because he understood what his older brother was talking about. That incident was unfortunate, but there was simply nothing that he could possibly do. Besides, why would he care for his older brother's fiancée?

Not to mention, all of Prince Ji Sheng's support had been cut down one by one along the way. Even if Prince Ji Sheng could win, Han Shi Kingdom would be put in perilous situation. 

'This is the end.'

'Yes.'

*

Wei Xiao Hua closed her eyes for a moment. The scene that played just before her return to the modern world was completely different. Because at that time, Prince Ji Sheng still hadn't lost his reason to win.

'The changing events… are my fault.'

Glancing at the time, Wei Xiao Hua knew that there was still more than enough time for her to read today since her work was done. 

'I'll continue reading.'

The story shifted to Yang Xian's point of view. Different from Prince Ji Sheng who had lost his will to live, Yang Xian's eyes were blazing with flames of revenge. After coming to that world, Wei Xiao Hua understood that Yang Xian blamed Ji Shu for everything that happened there.

Even if Ji Shu only responsible for part of them, Yang Xian still considered it to be his faults.

Commanding the soldiers, Yang Xian scattered the soldiers and made them attacked Ji Shu continuously during his return journey to the capital city. The supposedly smooth journey become torturing thanks to Yang Xian.

'….Why is the author writing so much about this strategist now?'
