Fang Xiaoling was stunned for a long time and forced a smile, "Roland, do you mean..."
"It's what you think! It's my soul that has taken over your body." Roland slowly let go of his hand, "Although it sounds incredible, it is the truth, so I can read your thoughts and feelings, It’s because my soul still has some connections with you, and because of this, I can easily find you.”
Fang Xiaoling slowly placed the cup on the table, "I don't want to ask how all this happened, I just want to know, why me?"
"I don't want to either." Roland looked at her apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you would lose the memory of the time I occupied your body. I originally thought you knew everything. Listen to me, Every time I fall asleep and wake up, I might turn into another woman. After traveling through time, unless I can make the man I like truly fall in love with me, I will never wake up."
"This...what is this?" Fang Xiaoling smiled bitterly and shook her head, "In other words, you took over my body, pursued Shen Yi and married him, and then woke up and lived with your own body. That's what it means. Bar?"
"There is nothing wrong with this, but Xiaoling, I really didn't mean it. I can't control who the soul will go to at all. Moreover, I have never traveled to anyone in the same era as my real body. They are all from ancient times or the future. , or even humans in other worlds. From the time I was sixteen to now, I have had nearly two hundred dreams, and have lived in various identities in various eras. Except for you, the most recent one was about being attached to Liu Erhua's body was Pan Long's grandmother. When I woke up from my real body, Liu Erhua had been dead for many years, Pan Long was in his forties, and Liu Erhua and I were not in the same era at all."
"That's enough!" Fang Xiaoling covered her head and said brokenly, "I don't want to hear what you have experienced. Those have nothing to do with me. I just want to know, if Shen Yi falls in love with you, then who am I? A third party?"
"Xiaoling, please don't get me wrong. I don't like Shen Yi at all. I only married him so that my real body could wake up. When I first found out that you and I were in the same era, I was also shocked. , and even used your body to come back here to find yourself, but I found that my real body was missing, and even my real body’s relatives and friends didn’t recognize Roland. It was like an imaginary world customized just for me. , and what’s even more illogical is that although no one remembers Roland, Roland’s bank account is still there, Roland’s home is still there, and the artificial intelligence at the elevator door automatically recognized your body as Roland, so I used your body to return I found the bank card at home and successfully withdrew 600,000 yuan. After marrying Shen Yi, I woke up and found myself lying on the bed. When I checked the bank card, it was indeed missing 600,000 yuan. This really makes no sense. There are too many mysteries, so I went to find you. As long as you are willing to help me, maybe we can find some clues."
Fang Xiaoling was silent for a moment and nodded slowly, "No wonder you are so kind, suddenly showing up and saying that you want to help me get Shen Yi back. It turns out that you were the one who dated Shen Yi at the beginning, and you felt very unhappy when you learned that Shen Yi fell in love with another woman. Happy, right?”
"Maybe it's just a simple desire to win. In any case, I don't have any feelings for Shen Yi. I have traveled nearly two hundred times and experienced countless men. I only regard them as tasks that can return to my true body. I have never I've never been emotional." Roland sat next to Fang Xiaoling, "Don't worry Xiaoling, you can spend my money as you like from now on, just think of it as my compensation for you."
"Make up?" Fang Xiaoling suddenly laughed, "Do you know why Shen Yi had an affair with Jiang Tongtong? Because he said that Jiang Tongtong has the shadow of me in the past, and the me in the past, isn't that you? From this point of view, Shen Yi has always been He has never changed his mind, he has always loved your soul, Roland."
"No, don't worry Xiaoling. In a sense, I have lived for hundreds of lives. What I am best at is controlling a man's heart. As long as you do what I say, Shen Yi will definitely fall in love with you sincerely. .”
"Disgusting!" Fang Xiaoling stood up in disgust, "Do you think you are powerful? Control other people's hearts. What do you think of people? As toys? Let me do what you say? What's the point of getting Shen Yi's love like that? ? I no longer plan to be with Shen Yi. If he doesn’t love me, just find someone you love. If I change myself for him, then I will no longer be me at all! "
"When a storm comes, which tree hopes for this?" Roland said calmly, "Do I just like to control people's hearts? I am also in pain. I just want to break the curse and leave this world quietly. Fang Xiaoling, you I say that I can't understand your mood, but I really can. If nothing else, let's just say that I have lived for almost tens of thousands of years. Is there anything else that I can't understand? I don't want to be cursed, and I don't want to disturb you. life, but these are all arrangements of fate and are really beyond my control."
Fang Xiaoling asked calmly, "If you are in pain, if you want to leave this world, can't you do it now? Are you immortal?"
Roland was silent for a long time and replied, "I can't help but live."
Fang Xiaoling mocked and said with hostility, "You have lived for tens of thousands of years, and you haven't lived enough yet?"
Roland was not angry. She sighed, "There are countless times that I don't want to live anymore, but there are also countless times that I can't bear to live my life, whether it's my own true body or possessing someone else's body. There are even many times, I live in an age full of war, and all problems can be solved with just a thought, but I am still struggling to survive when I am covered in bruises and unconsciousness. Maybe it is instinct, maybe it is my personal cowardice. At that edge moment, I can't help but want to live, even if I live for another ten thousand years, even if I hate life itself, I can't help living."
"Whatever." Fang Xiaoling said and left. She had figured everything out. Although she was penniless and had nowhere to go, she didn't want to stay here any longer.
On October 10, 2022, she met the 29-year-old Baishi Luolan. This man subverted her outlook on life and made her lose the meaning of living. When the elevator opened again, It is no longer a sea of flowers, but a beautiful lakeside view. It turns out that technology has developed to a level beyond my imagination. However, I have lived for twenty-three years and know nothing about it. Destiny makes everyone live in a different world. The span of those worlds is absolutely insurmountable through effort alone.
Even the human heart is so ridiculous. People you once loved deeply will also be controlled by techniques.
"Shen Yi, can my sincerity be no match for those experiences of understanding human nature?" The elevator reached the first floor and opened the door. Fang Xiaoling staggered out, ignoring the changing form of artificial intelligence next to her, and murmured, "Shen Yi, If there is no love in this world, then what is my feeling for you? Why even now, I still can't help but miss you."
The stars in the artificial sky are flowing, turning into colorful stars. Faintly, the faint sound of piano can be heard. Fang Xiaoling unknowingly gets lost in this beauty again, as if one of the many spots of light is... Your true home.
"God, if you really exist, please take me away." She cried and laughed, collapsed on the ground, opened her arms and shouted, "This world has abandoned me! Please take me away, please I'll take it away..."
The river of stars turned and formed a circle, like a deep pupil, as if it sucked in everything in the world. Fang Xiaoling felt as if her soul had been sucked away. The artificial sky seemed to be the vast universe that really existed, which made her I couldn't tell the difference between illusion and reality, and I didn't know whether I was awake or intoxicated. I just felt that I was rising, rising...I don't know how long I had been rising, and then I suddenly began to fall, in the boundless darkness, and among the mottled and bright stars around me, I fell rapidly. , falling endlessly.
At the same time, Roland was entering the lakeside-themed elevator. She stepped on the mirror-clear electronic screen under her feet, which simulated ripples on the water. She looked down and saw the familiar yet unfamiliar version of herself, "See you next time." You, I don’t know how many lifetimes you have lived and died again.”
Before she finished speaking, her reflection in the electronic lake suddenly showed a strange smile. This made Roland, who had experienced hundreds of lives, unconsciously startled. The hairs on her body stood up. Just when she wanted to take a closer look. , suddenly fell into the lake, and real liquid poured into her throat and ears. She struggled painfully, and gradually lost consciousness, feeling that she was falling continuously.
"Could it be that I fell asleep?" Roland was very familiar with this feeling. Every time she traveled through time, she would fall for a long time, with a calm mood, waiting to wake up with a new identity.
I don’t know how long it took, but new memories poured into Roland’s brain like quicksand. She slowly opened her eyes and found herself lying on an unfamiliar tatami. She started to meditate in a familiar way, sorting out the memories carried by this body. .
"Li Mengli, a senior in high school, is targeting a young gangster named Tian Hu..." Roland murmured, disdainfully saying in his heart, "Children, just study hard and do whatever you like."
"Ah——" A scream came from not far outside the door. Roland slowly opened his eyes. Despite the noise outside the door, he found a mirror on the desk and looked at it. "Looks pretty good. Got the target." If so, it will only take a few days. We must quickly return to her real body to find Fang Xiaoling. Maybe she is the key to unlocking the curse."
"Who is Li Mengling? My name is Fang Xiaoling! Don't come over here!"
The noise outside the door stunned Roland for a while. She opened the door and saw her parents looking worriedly at the girl huddled in the corner, "Mengling, what's wrong with you? Don't scare mom."
