What should I do if I lose my memory after transmigrating into a book?

Chapter 152 Reason

Jiang Hui almost couldn't resist reaching out to punch the kid.

"You can't be so impulsive! You need to understand that this is a national lockdown. Private planes need to apply for flight routes in advance. Not only did you not apply, but you're also trying to fly directly into a locked-down area. You're practically challenging the bottom line of the law!!!"

"Jiang Ci, calm down, don't let your emotions control your brain."

Jiang Hui sternly reprimanded him, gripping his shoulders tightly with both hands.

Jiang Ci snapped out of his daze, tears welling in his eyes. His voice was incoherent as he asked, "Dad, she's all alone there. There's no one there, no food. What is she supposed to do all by herself?"

Is she scared?

Jiang Ci's pale hands weakly covered his eyes.

Jiang Hui's eyes welled up with tears. Despite his advanced age, he forced back the stinging sensation in his nose and calmly watched Jiang Ci.

"Xiao Ci, you must believe in her, and you must believe in your father. Xiao Xi is absolutely safe and sound in Yunxia Xiang. The government has organized personnel to go in and distribute supplies. I have already arranged for people to be near that community. As long as they can get in, there will be news after today."

Perhaps it was Jiang Hui's words that had an effect, as Jiang Ci's tense nerves gradually relaxed.

He had never felt such regret in the first half of his short life as he did today; he could clearly feel the unease and tension as he prepared to leave.

But she still walked away.

She lived there alone in a completely enclosed environment, unable to contact anyone, and had no means of relieving her boredom.

Jiang Ci thought: I just want to stay there with her.

There's no point in saying more now that things have come to this.

Seeing that Jiang Ci had calmed down, Jiang Hui slowly walked out. He then summoned his two bodyguards a short distance away and repeatedly gave them instructions.

"Keep a close eye on the young master. If he makes any move to leave Yuan City, stop him immediately and report to me."

The two bodyguards responded, "Yes."

Jiang Ci didn't care about the people following him. He walked to a sycamore tree that had survived even the earthquake and looked at the sycamore leaves on the ground.

He thought of the sycamore trees at Xiangtan Middle School.

He watched quietly for a few seconds, then took out his phone and called the person Jiang Hui had arranged.

The person on the other end replied that they had entered the community, but each building had specially assigned medical personnel to organize deliveries to prevent the spread of the epidemic.

They did not see Shen Xi either.

But they stayed downstairs, told the medical staff where Shen Xi was, and asked them to check if it was safe.

The medical staff gave a definitive answer: "Safe."

At that moment, Jiang Ci felt relieved.

The best news would be if Shenxi could be confirmed to be safe.

Jiang Hui also received the news and couldn't help but smile; it was indeed good news.

At this time, Jiang Hui hired more manpower and spent a lot of money to transport building materials, hoping to complete the ancestral hall as soon as possible.

Many things can no longer wait.

Jiang Ci sat alone under a tree, dozens of blueprints at his feet, weighed down by a wooden ruler, his eyes vacant as he stared into the distance.

The workers were initially puzzled by the comings and goings, but gradually got used to it.

Just then, another phone call came in.

This time, it was someone even Jiang Ci hadn't expected—Yan Ruo.

Yan Ruo spoke very quickly on the phone. He started by introducing himself, as if afraid that Jiang Ci would hang up immediately. Then he talked about what had happened a few days ago and Shen Xi's current situation.

In short, Yan Ruo could no longer contact Shen Xi.

After going through several people, he finally managed to get Jiang Ci's contact information from his teacher.

He felt that Jiang Ci would eventually find out about Shen Xi's situation.

As it turned out... even Jiang Ci wasn't in Yunxia Xiang.

The wind whistled, and leaves rustled down. A bright green sycamore leaf landed on Jiang Ci's shoulder.

Jiang Ci didn't care at all. He stood up, his eyes as still as black water, without any fluctuation.

His tone was icy: "Tell me, who is it that stopped Shen Xi outside the restroom?"

When Yan Ruo, who was home alone, heard the tone of the underworld across from her, her hair stood on end instantly, and she felt a chill run down her spine.

He rubbed his arms and recited the names of the people in detail, while also quickly complaining about the "good deeds" they had done.

Yan Ruoxin thought to herself, "It's okay if I can't beat you guys, but I can find outside help!"

Things went exactly as Yan Ruo had imagined.

Jiang Ci was indeed planning to settle scores with these people. He wasn't even dead yet! How dare these people bully Shen Xi?

Damn it!!!

He was so angry that his head ached, and he unconsciously pinched his throbbing temples.

Jiang Ci resolved matters with exceptional speed. Soon, the principal of Xiangtan Middle School, who was isolated in his office, received a letter of complaint accusing him of condoning school bullying, inaction, accepting bribes, and a long list of other allegations.

The sender even included photos and evidence with each message.

A complete chain of evidence.

The sender seemed to be simply informing him that his time as principal was coming to an end.

The white-bearded principal rolled his eyes and slumped into his office chair, unable to breathe for a long time.

A thick stack of papers drifted to the ground as his hand drooped down.

He's finished, he's really finished.

……

Shen Xi, whose phone was completely destroyed, lay casually on the sofa in loose pajamas, watching the news on the big TV without any regard for her image.

According to the latest news reports, an outbreak has suddenly occurred in the Yunnan-Hunan region of my country. To prevent the spread of infection, the city was immediately placed under lockdown. Medical personnel from other cities have been arriving in Yunnan-Hunan to provide assistance.

Shen Xi sighed and lay down in a different position. She should have stocked up on some food in the refrigerator earlier. Right now, all that's left in the refrigerator are a few tomatoes and some cabbages and carrots that just arrived from outside.

She was completely baffled as to how to use this luxurious ingredient to cook a delicious meat dish.

She was so hungry...

I really want to eat meat, snail rice noodles, spicy strips, hot pot, popsicles...

This damned pandemic.

She couldn't even take a picture of herself before she starved to death with her phone.

Life goes on.

Shen Xi pondered for a while, and suddenly remembered something. She hurriedly went barefoot to the study and found a brand new diary.

This diary was a free gift from Jiang Ci when he bought books. Shen Xi thought it looked familiar, so she asked for it.

Since I can't go out and can't communicate with people, I can at least write in my diary.

Shen Xi sat in the study facing east, bathed in sunlight, with her legs dangling and her toes swinging leisurely as she began to write.

She wrote this on the title page of her diary

—A diary left for future generations.

Maybe I will leave one day, but this time I think everyone will remember that I was here.

Shen Xi looked gently at the notebook, carefully reading down the events that happened when she first transmigrated.

Initially, the death of the kindergarten director caused her to switch timelines and arrive in a strange novel world.

She is the second female lead in this world, a vicious supporting character who commits all sorts of evil deeds.

She later discovered that this world did not unfold according to the predetermined plot; Jiang Du here was her biological son, and Jiang Ci was her missing partner. The Shen family was her true birth family.

All of this seemed to be proving one thing—she was originally from this world.

Finally, all of this was disrupted by a woman from the Shen family named Shen Lu. She also came from an unknown place, possessed an external system, took over her identity, and forced her to wander... and ultimately caused her death.

Most importantly, Shen Lu was certain that the world was a fictional world.

In the story she tells from her perspective, Shen Xi is the female lead, and Jiang Ci is the male lead.

The story unfolded so perfectly it was unbelievable.

A gentle breeze caressed the little girl's fair face.

Shen Xi finished the last stroke.

She asked, "Then who am I?"

It seems no one can answer this question for her.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with mist, and her vision blurred as she looked at the notebook.

That small line of text perfectly encapsulates the hardships and bitterness of her early life.

She was abandoned as a child, and from the moment she was picked up by the kindergarten director, she earnestly pretended to be a well-behaved and sensible child.

The child, at such a young age, dared not show any temper. Wherever she went, she always took the lead in doing things well. She always carefully observed other people's expressions, which fostered her cautious and hesitant nature.

She told herself this when she was very, very young.

Shen Xi, you should be content; there are still people who want you.

You should be content.

The contrast between people is always stark, even among children from the same town.

Some are born to be loved, some are born into the dust.

Sunlight slanted past Shen Xi, falling on her side. Shen Xi lay quietly on the writing chair, her eyes closed in a state of dejection.

She thought that at this moment she still had to thank one person for giving her the opportunity to experience the feeling of being loved passionately and intensely in her lifetime.

The notebook gently turned to a blank page as the wind blew.

Perhaps it's more interesting to live life in a daze; being too clear-headed will only bring pain.

Shen Xi's thoughts were in turmoil, and a few tears clung to her long, thick black eyelashes. She slammed her notebook shut and went back to lie down on the sofa.

In the empty house, the thin little girl curled up on the sofa, clutching a small notebook. On her quiet profile, a hint of grievance could be seen on her delicate face.

……

An unknown high school,

The walls were mottled with dust, and long yellow wooden desks sat on the cement floor.

There were about ten students sitting below.

The girl with pigtails, wearing slightly worn clothes, stared wide-eyed at the blackboard as the teacher guided the few students below step by step to solve the problem.

After the teacher finished solving the problem, she looked at the children below with satisfaction as they nodded earnestly.

After class, Bai Susu was called to the teacher's office.

The teacher looked at the thin little girl in front of her. She was staring at the tips of her shoes with her head down, not used to looking up at her.

The teacher patted the exceptionally well-behaved girl and gently asked, "Susu, tell me, do you still want to study? Or do you want to listen to your mother and go back to growing tea? I want to hear your thoughts."

Bai Susu slowly raised her head, pursed her lips, and looked sadly at the teacher:

"Teacher, I want to study."

She really wanted to get out of there; she didn't want to spend her whole life trapped in this man-eating mountain.

After receiving a clear answer, the teacher finally felt relieved, but when she thought of her difficult and unreasonable mother, she couldn't help but feel sorry for the child.

She said sincerely, "Susu, I'm so glad you made this decision today. I also hope that you can leave this mountain and create your own life, so that you won't be controlled by anyone in the future. I think you'll understand what I'm saying today or someday in the future."

Su Su looked up at her teacher with gratitude, a flush rising on her pale, malnourished face.

“Teacher, I will go out. No matter what, I want to go out and see what the world is like... As for my mother... I will find a way to persuade her.”

A hint of sadness flashed in the teacher's eyes; such a well-behaved and intelligent child was born into such a wretched and backward family.

She felt sad and helpless for the child.

Fortunately, someone was willing to sponsor the students of this middle school to study; otherwise, Su Su wouldn't be standing here now, but in the tea field.

Before leaving, the teacher secretly slipped Shen Xi a lot of candy and snacks that Su Su couldn't name.

The teacher told her to eat as she walked, and finish eating before going home.

Bai Susu was very obedient. She carefully opened a beautifully packaged bag and savored the delicious taste she had never experienced before.

Spicy, sour, and sweet.

This short journey home planted a seed in her young heart.

In the end, she couldn't even bear to throw away these fancy, pretty bags.

She folded the bag layer upon layer, carefully tucking it in. Then she stuffed the remaining snacks into a cloth bag with several slits sewn in it.

She happily shook her braids, and her steps became lighter.

She also wanted Linlin to try these, as she had never eaten them before.

As she neared home, Su Su stopped in her tracks. She was surprised to find that her home, which rarely received visitors, was now suddenly filled with so many people.

Bai Susu slowly approached her front door. At that moment, a woman with asymmetrical lipstick spotted Bai Susu.

She called out in a high-pitched voice, "Isn't this Su Su? Su Su is back! Look how much a girl changes as she grows up. She's become so beautiful that I almost didn't recognize her."

These words put someone in a difficult position, making it hard for them to back down.

For the first time in her life, Bai's mother's usually sharp-tongued, slanted eyes were filled with a warm smile.

However, when Su Su faced such a smile, she felt as if she had fallen into an icy lake.

She unconsciously gripped the cloth bag slung across her body, instinctively wanting to run away.

As soon as she took a step back, a burly woman silently stood behind Bai Susu, cutting off her escape route and leaving her nowhere to go.

Bai Susu looked around helplessly at the smiling women. She felt as if she had fallen into a wolf's den, but she didn't know when these wolves would bite her.

next second.

The werewolf spoke up, "Bai Susu, I've found you a good family."
