Chapter 38: Chapter 38 Noble Lady vs. Reborn Foster Daughter (Part 6)
“Miss Cheng?” Gu Shengyin was dazed by the familiar scent until Yuan Xu called out to her.
She snapped back to reality, quickly steadied herself, and thanked Yuan Xu.
“Mr. Yuen, do you like the scent of lotus in perfu?” Gu Shengyin asked, unsure of what prompted her to inquire.
Yuan Xu chuckled, “No, I never use perfu.”
As he finished speaking, he nodded toward Gu Shengyin, indicating he had to leave, as they had started calling his na in the hall.
Gu Shengyin was left sitting there, lost in thought.
“System.” Gu Shengyin’s voice carried a hint of hope, “Do you think it’s possible… could Ji Yu have reincarnated just like ?”
The system was silent for a mont before responding, “Theoretically, that possibility does not exist.”
“But he slls exactly like Ji Yu!” Gu Shengyin grew excited, “In the previous world, Ji Yu always had a lingering scent of lotus, and when I was with him, I was certain that he never used anything that slled like lotus.”
The system remained silent; it had no explanation for this phenonon.
Suddenly, Gu Shengyin felt alive again. Since arriving in this world, her deanor had been sowhat strange—as if lacking vitality. Although she completed her tasks as usual, it always seed as though she was struggling to find a reason to continue.
Gu Shengyin was not the system’s first host. Before her, there had been several other hosts, who, like Gu Shengyin, had fallen in love with soone in a particular world. But as one world passed, their lovers vanished forever, while the hosts themselves continued to travel through world after world. Over ti, even the most resolute wills struggled to endure.
An eternity without hope was more cruel than anything else.
Two of the system’s first three hosts had requested self-destruction.
But Gu Shengyin was different from them.
Gu Shengyin was personally created by that Person. In terms of status, even ten systems could not compare to one Gu Shengyin, she just didn’t know it herself.
Gu Shengyin felt her body surge with fighting spirit anew.
She stared at Yuan Xu, who was speaking confidently on stage, pondering how to verify whether he was the reincarnation of Ji Yu.
That’s right! Gu Shengyin suddenly rembered. Ji Yu had a lotus-shaped mark on his left shoulder. In the previous world, during monts of affection, she had teased him that he might be the reincarnation of a Lotus Fairy, otherwise why would his body not only have the scent of lotus but also a lotus mark. At the ti, Ji Yu had taken it as a joke; aside from Gu Shengyin, no one else could sll the lotus scent on him.
So, about Yuan Xu—did he also have the sa mark?
Gu Shengyin watched Yuan Xu intently, contemplating how to undress this man and confirm her suspicions.
After Yuan Xu, as the heir to the Cheng Group, Cheng Boxuan naturally shared so thoughts.
“Lastly, please allow to introduce my sister, the little princess of the Cheng Group, Cheng Xizhi.” Cheng Boxuan smiled as he looked over at Cheng Xizhi.
Xi Xi disliked the business world, but that was okay, as her older brother had the capability to protect her and ensure she lived a carefree life. However, networking was sothing Xi Xi would have to develop on her own; after all, it would be her wealth in the future.
Under everyone’s gaze, Gu Shengyin elegantly stood up.
