Chapter 355

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.

Back then, she and Liang Yuanqing went to a holiday villa with a swimming pool. Liang Siyu loved to play and secretly went to play in the water, but accidentally drowned in the swimming pool. Wait, it’s not accurate to say she drowned, because she was only briefly exposed to death, and was then resurrected.

Yes, resurrection.

At the moment of her death, Liang Siyu was bound to her system and obtained her golden finger. At that time, Old Master Wen happened to come to the holiday villa, and when he saw Liang Siyu who had passed out in a come in the swimming pool, he jumped down to save her. In desperation, Liang Siyu stole his life and used it to extend her life.

The system said that multiple of such a life-for-life exchange couldn’t be carried out at the same time. She could only wait for the thirteen years of life that she took from her grandfather to be used up before she could steal more life again to survive.

Liang Siyu never worried about it even once, because she knew that thirteen years later she would be eighteen years old, the time when she was in her prime. She still had great years waiting in the future, and more importantly, she really believed that she would not die. Because her drowning was actually a blessing in disguise, and some memory fragments surfaced in her mind at that time, about the future of this world.

At that moment, Liang Siyu knew that she was the Chosen One of this world and the heroine.

The fortunes of this world were for her to use. She would be the absolute protagonist who was praised by everyone, and smoothly go all the way to the top.

Perhaps, even this system was a gift from God to allow her to have more trump cards and more confidence, so that she could live more effortlessly and more beautifully.

However, the cruelty of the world was far beyond what a five-year-old child could understand. All the gifts of fate secretly had a price set.

Liang Siyu got the benefits from a young age and knew that there was nothing to worry about in her future. She also had an incomprehensible golden finger on her hand. Her Dad loved her, her Mom loved her and her grandparents loved her, too. There was nothing she couldn’t get, and everyone couldn’t help but love her. She was born different; she was born a winner.

She had no shortage of money, friends and family.

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.
