Ye Qingran:”…”

How was she going to answer him? Would he believe her if she told him that it was a novel? Or should she just give a perfunctory answer and say that she was spouting nonsense.

She would say that in the past, but today, for some reason, she did not want to answer him like that.

She smiled and said with a mixture of truth and falsehood, “Then I’ll tell you a secret. Actually, I’m a fairy and have the ability to predict the future, so I know that she won’t die.”

Normally, no one would believe such words.

With her understanding of Chu Yan, Chu Yan would definitely not believe it. He would only think that she was joking and laugh at most, then say that she was mischievous.

However, the result was completely out of her expectations.

At this moment, Chu Yan’s handsome face, which had extremely beautiful facial features, was very serious. He asked her, “Then may I ask, what is the real name of the fairy?”

Ye Qingran was stunned.

The man’s pitch-black eyes were different from before. There was a depth that she could not understand. It was as if there was nowhere to hide in his gaze.

The smile on her lips disappeared for a second before it returned. “You believe me when I say I’m a Fairy? What if I’m a demon or some kind of monster?”

She had always thought that no one could know her secret. Perhaps she was too confident that the man in front of her had already seen through her.

Chu Yan replied, “It doesn’t matter. I just want to know your name.”

Recently, he had been having a strange dream. In the dream, she was calling out to him. The voice was clearly from the side, but he did not see anyone after walking around in circles.

Even after he woke up from the dream and saw that she was clearly sleeping next to him, he felt a distant feeling that he could not see or touch.

He told himself that the dream was fake and that it was caused by his worries day and night.

However, no matter how much he comforted himself, his heart could not be as calm and composed as before.

This strange dream seemed to be giving him some kind of strong hint.

If it was in the past, he would have followed her words and moved on from this topic. However, he did not want to maintain the current situation today and did not want to pretend that he did not know anything. He wanted to know who she was, or at least her name.

Ye Qingran looked at Chu Yan in shock.

If she had only suspected that he knew something in the beginning, she could be certain now. Chu Yan already knew that she was not the original owner, Ye Qingran. Otherwise, he would not have kept asking her for her name.

If it were anyone else, she would be on high alert, guessing what kind of crisis she would face after her true self was exposed.

However, at this moment, she was not worried at all about the man in front of her.

However, she still restrained her smile. “When did you find out?”

Chu Yan held her hand and did not find it hard to accept. He was still as intimate with her as ever.

He held her hand and brought her to his side. Then, he sat her on his lap and cupped her face with both hands. He pressed his forehead against hers and curled the corner of his mouth. “I knew it from the moment I met you.”

Ye Qingran stared at him with wide eyes.”…”

How was this possible? He did not know the original owner. How could he know that she was not the original owner the moment he met her.

“Ruoruo is my sister after all. I definitely know that she has a boyfriend. As for that boyfriend of hers, I will naturally investigate as well. I want to make sure if Ruoruo really likes him. That boyfriend of hers would not do anything to hurt her. When I brought you home, I realized that you are completely different from the Ye Qingran that I investigated.”

Because the original Ye Qingran did not know him, she did not hide anything in front of him and revealed her true self.

Only then did he realize it.

Ye Qingran was very shocked that she had fallen so early.

She said, “Can’t I pretend to be a good-for-nothing in the past?”

For those who knew her, no one noticed that she had changed her soul. Instead, a person who did not know her discovered it. It was her fault. She thought that the original owner did not know Chu Yan, so she did not pretend in front of him at all.

Instead, he discovered it.

It was also because of this man’s great wisdom.

Chu Yan replied, “Even if you’re pretending, I would still know that you’re not that Ye Qingran.”

Ye Qingran could no longer describe her feelings at this moment with words. She asked, “Then you know… aren’t you afraid?”

This kind of talk sounded like a change of heart. To not say it with nice words, it was like borrowing a corpse to resurrect the soul.

Most people would be horrified if they knew about it.

Chu Yan sucked on her lips. “Why should I be afraid? I’m so happy that fate has sent you to me.”

Their breaths were intertwined, and their lips were intertwined for a long time before they parted.

Ye Qingran’s breath was slightly flustered. “I have a question for you. Is Mu Qingxue’s disappearance related to you?”

When Chu Yan heard this name, he suddenly leaned back on his chair and said slowly, “She knows too.”

What did she know? Both of them were smart people. They did not need to be too clear to understand the meaning behind their words.

“I always thought that if someone discovered that I was not the original Ye Qingran, it would be her.” Ye Qingran was not surprised that Mu Qingxue would know because she was the female protagonist. She was the center of the book and had an unlimited halo.

Even if she retaliated against the female protagonist time and again and destroyed the halo of the female protagonist, the female protagonist would always stand up again.

Therefore, knowing that she was inside a book and that she was not the original Ye Qingran, and even having the memories of her past rebirth could happen at any time.

She asked, “Then you did it for me… could it be that you have already…”

Ye Qingran wanted ask, did you kill her.

Chu Yan did not hide anything from her. “I want to, but I didn’t. Are you afraid?”

Ye Qingran shook her head. The two of them stared at each other, their gazes more determined than ever. Of course, she was not afraid. She knew that Chu Yan was doing it to protect her.

She said, “I guess you can’t kill her.”

Chu Yan hummed in agreement. That was why he asked her how she knew that Mu Qingxue would not die.

Ye Qingran sighed, “As expected of the female protagonist. She really has a golden touch.”

However, she was really curious as to why the aura of the female protagonist did not reach Chu Yan.

Chu Yan said, “Mu Qingxue also said that this is a book. She is the female protagonist of this book while you are the female supporting role…”

He told Ye Qingran everything that he knew about Mu Qingxue.

Ye Qingran had always thought that she was reborn, but she did not expect that not only was she reborn, she even knew that she was living in a book. This halo was almost off the charts.

She looked at Chu Yan and asked, “After hearing so much from her, don’t you have any thoughts?”

Chu Yan asked back, “What thoughts should I have?”

Ye Qingran teased, “She is the female protagonist.. If you are with her, then you are the male lead.”
