Thirteen Years of Borrowed Time (1)
Regarding this issue, the system did not know either. It wasn’t an all-powerful, all-knowing god – it was just a rookie system that seemed to have gotten a fake script. It was already not easy to keep Jiang Xiaoman from going astray, so how could it have paid attention to what went wrong with Liang Siyu?
Of course, the system would not say that, because it still needed to maintain some dignity. Since it couldn’t answer, it could only say ambiguously, “In short, it’s a secret that may not be leaked.”
“...”
Jiang Xiaoman snorted, but did not continue to investigate. Her curiosity would only be used in the right place. Since the system didn’t know, then she wouldn’t ask further.
She laid down and covered herself in the quilt. She then exchanged a good night greeting with the system like in the past.
After staying at the Wen family house for two days, Jiang Xiaoman and Yu Qingshi went home.
As soon as she got home, she was stunned by the news. That night, when Jiang Xing and Tao Tao came back from the hospital, Jiang Xing laughed like a fool and said that he would be a father soon.
Wuu wuu wuu, that’s good. Her Uncle’s iron tree was blossoming and bearing fruit again1.
In fact, Liang Siyu died when she was five years old.
If she didn’t know how to answer a question on an exam, she could use the system to steal someone else’s knowledge. If she didn’t have enough money, she could just act like a spoiled child. All her classmates and teachers praised her, saying she was a role model for everyone to learn from.
Liang Siyu felt that her life had nothing to worry about. The trajectory was as she had foreseen back on the verge of death. She was the arrogant Daughter of Heaven, God’s beloved, and was destined to live a beautiful life all her life.
Unfortunately, there was an extra Jiang Xiaoman later.
Liang Siyu had been well protected by the system since she was a child, and she had never experienced any setbacks or beatings. No matter what it was she was missing, as long as she reached out, there was someone at the ready. Once she lost these powers, she was like a bird with clipped wings, without any ability of her own.
She took everyone’s favor for granted, and thought that the world revolved around her.
Therefore, Jiang Xiaoman, who suddenly appeared, stole everything from her.
And Liang Siyu had no power to fight back. No matter what she did, she was always defeated by Jiang Xiaoman. All the tricks she successfully used in the past no longer worked.
Her mother hated her more and more, and her father who loved her the most began to alienate her. She was not the real daughter of the Wen family, and that identity she was most proud of was fake. Everything was fake.
She didn’t want to accept her unknown origin, and didn’t want to recognize the mother lying in the ICU. She had no feelings for that woman, and she had no interest in who her biological father was. She just wanted to go back to the Wen family and become the daughter of the Wen family again.
