CH 23.1
Chapter 23.1: I’m with you
The dinner party had already begun.
Jiang Shi’s agent led him to the dessert area, gave him a few instructions, and then walked away into the crowd while carrying a wine glass and stepping on ten-centimeter high heels.
As Jiang Shi was still young and growing, he wasn’t restricted in his eating habits. At the moment, he held a plate of cake and his gaze, involuntarily, shifted to the other side after leaving his agent behind.
That area wasn’t the center of the banquet, but the people surrounding it were all of high status. The ones surrounded were the husband and wife, Bian Yi and Kou Li, who arrived before Jiang Shi.
Jiang Shi took a spoonful of cake and the sweet taste melted in his mouth, but he didn’t smile with his eyes as he usually did.
The book in his mind stated that Bian Yi was a time traveler, and so was the fake one.
Jiang Shi’s first reaction was, of course, disbelief. There couldn’t be such a magical thing.
But the book’s appearance was also magical, wasn’t it?
It seemed like it was also true?
Jiang Shi thought while eating, trying to figure out whether the book was true or false.
If it was true, it seemed to make sense—the previous “Bian Yi” was so different from the current one, and his family couldn’t have mistaken him. But why couldn’t they tell the difference? Because the genes of the two were exactly the same.
This was also what the book stated.
It was strange, but not unreasonable.
That was why Jiang Shi had doubts.
If it was false, it also seemed fake.
After all, time travel was originally a fantasy, and traveling twice, in sequence, made it more unbelievable.
How could there be a hole in their world? Anyone could just enter it casually?
Jiang Shi had nothing to do, so he sat in a corner with a dessert, analyzing the “knowledge points” imparted to him by the book he read tonight.
It’s worth mentioning that Jiang Shi is both excellent in singing and dancing, and his academic performance is also outstanding. He did well in this year’s college entrance examination and was praised as a “study master”. He can still hold his own without feeling inferior.
Jiang Shi, the study master, quickly listed the key points.
First: the book says that he is the protagonist and that he and Kou Li are a pair, and Bian Yi is the one who steals people away- regardless of which one.
After deducing and analyzing, Jiang Shi felt that this point was fictitious.
Although Bian Yi did not publicly announce who his lover was in the circle, he had been married for several years, at least four or five years.
Four or five years ago, Jiang Shi was only thirteen or fourteen years old and still in junior high school.
Thinking of this, Jiang Shi shivered.
He, Jiang Shi, had a destined lover at the age of thirteen or fourteen?
If this were true, Mr. Kou would probably have to go to a law enforcement program.
The system watching his entire reasoning process: ???
Are you freaking kidding me? Do you have a problem? Is this how you analyze things?!
Is the new host normal? Isn’t it normal to think: “Originally, I am the protagonist, and the other male lead is my destined love. These damn cannon fodder villains have taken over my plot, and I must be able to kill them?”
If the system were a human, it would probably be choking on its own blood by now.
Soon, Jiang Shi came to the second point: Kou Li is rich, very rich, maybe the wealthiest person in reserve.
He felt this point was probably true.
Jiang Shi heard from his sister that E Island, where they filmed the program last time, was Bian Yi’s partner’s. Moreover, at this banquet, many people wanted to approach Kou Li, and anyone with eyes could see that he was a successful person.
But, what does Kou Li’s wealth have to do with Jiang Shi?
Jiang Shi was quite puzzled. Other people’s wealth was their own business, why did the book specifically mention it?
If he wanted to become wealthy, to be honest, Jiang Shi was quite confident. He had earned a lot of money, and he had bought houses in A City! Although he still had to repay the loans.
But he was only eighteen years old, and he could buy whatever he wanted in the future, right?
The system:…f*ck!
It spat blood.
It regretted.
Damn, what kind of idiot is this? It had gone through so many hosts, and this was the least intelligent one.
What does it matter to him if someone else is rich?
How come this thing doesn’t even care about money? Aren’t humans supposed to be the greediest? According to past experience, when they hear that they are the main character, the future boyfriend, girlfriend, husband or wife, and how much money and status they have, the hosts become more active one after another. If anyone stands in their way, they become more ruthless than the others.
Guan Xi is already the most cowardly and useless one it has encountered. It didn’t expect to meet someone like Jiang Shí, who doesn’t even try to struggle.
It shouldn’t have left the backup with Jiang Shí just because he and Bian Yì have some resemblance.
Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret now.
It needs to find a way to shake this stubborn stone.
Jiang Shí naturally doesn’t know what’s on the system’s mind. He’s pondering the third point.
The third point naturally refers to Bian Yì and the fake Guan Xi being time travelers.
Jiang Shí didn’t know Bian Yì before. Their business was different, they didn’t have many chances to meet, and Jiang Shí had just debuted not long ago.
It is said that the impersonator has been using Bian Yì’s identity for public activities only in the last year, and the storm he caused is not small. Jiang Shí has not seen it, but he has heard about it and seen the photos handed to him by Jiang Jie when she gossiped with him.
Jiang Shí has an advantage. Although he is young, he is indeed lucky in judging people.
The same face, the impersonator has a fake and affected smile, and his temperament is sometimes sleazy. Jiang Shí, a member of the appearance association, didn’t like him when he first saw the photo.
However, the real Bian Yì is completely different. He can beat the impersonator by several streets. Although it is the same face, Jiang Shí quickly fell for him within a few minutes and became a dog of beauty.
Although there is no solid evidence, Jiang Shí believes that the impersonator may be a time traveler, and as for Bian Yì, he’s not sure.
Combined with the previous two points, Jiang Shí has reason to suspect that Bian Yì is the real main character.
The plot in the book says that Jiang Shí is a substitute lover, standing in for Bian Yì.
This means that Kou Lì originally liked Bian Yì, and because they had a conflict and separated, he found Jiang Shí to be a substitute.
The conflict and separation in this case, combined with real-life events and the timeline on both sides, is very intriguing. Isn’t this the case where Bian Yì was kidnapped and disappeared, and Kou Lì couldn’t find her so he had to find a substitute?
Furthermore, that Guan Xī also has many problems. If he is really a time traveler, why did he choose Bian Yì’s identity? Isn’t he also just a substitute lover?
So here’s the problem.
All signs are pointing to Kou Li’s true love being Bian Yi.
Although Jiang Shi is unclear about how the two of them get along as a married couple, from what he can see with his own eyes, Kou Li seems to be in love with Bian Yi.
They were already in a legal relationship, and now Bian Yi has returned.
It should have been a story of a broken mirror being reunited, but at this very moment, a book appeared in Jiang Shi’s mind, encouraging him to become a substitute and a third party.
This is too coincidental.
Jiang Shi’s face changed when he saw the book.
This book is definitely not a good thing.
It looks like it was specifically created to destroy the relationship between Bian Yi and Kou Li.
System:…
The system couldn’t say anything.
It couldn’t help but think of the human called Jian Yi from before.
That person said it only dares to find stupid people who are easy to deceive, because smart people can easily see through its tricks, and smart people can’t like being controlled and manipulated by others.
At this moment, the system was somewhat annoyed and wanted to use tough measures against Jiang Shi, or simply kill this person who made it so angry.
But Kou Li was not far away, and it only had this one host.
If the host died, it couldn’t leave this world.
It regretted, it was angry, but it had to endure.
The dinner party had already begun.
