Chapter 1019: Otherworldly Space

most of her face except for the hint of a red smile playing on her lips.To distinguish herself from the peonies, she wore a white cheongsam embroidered with hibiscus flowers today, carrying her small...The ripple smoothly entered a body. Just as she took control, her shoulders were slapped hard twice. She instinctively turned her head and saw a bruised and swollen face, almost unrecognizable, clearly beaten up by someone.

"Ripple, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to!"

"Haha! He wasn't accidental, he was intentional! You have to stick with it, we made a bet!"

Behind this boy who couldn't be seen clearly, stood a group of boys and girls in aristocratic school uniforms, all with expressions of watching a good show.

The ripples swept across the room, and she found herself in a small screening room of about one hundred square meters. Although she hadn't accepted the original owner's memories yet, she also sensed the malice emanating from these people.

"Sorry! I want to live!"

A boy with a bruised face finished speaking, then shoved Ripples hard. Ripples was pushed onto the projection screen, and in the next moment, she realized something was wrong. Her body felt like it had sunk into foam, passing through a thin membrane and disappearing into the wall.

The last words she heard were:

"Time starts now!"

Ripples only felt a blackness before her eyes, and in the next instant she was in another space. Here, everything was gray, devoid of any color. Gray mist floated in the air, and a deathly silence hung heavy.

She was in the same projection room as before, but it felt very strange. There was no one in sight.

A hiss echoed, and Ripples' ears twitched. Then she leaped away from her spot. Where she had been standing on the projection cloth was a black pit, emitting a foul odor.

Immediately, the ripples felt somewhat hazy. She shook her head and blocked her nose with her arm, beginning to search for whatever had just attacked her.

"Stone mill, where is this"

The ripples cautiously surveyed its surroundings while communicating with the millstone, but it received no response.

In uncertain whether this place is safe or not, Ripple didn't rashly accept the original body's memories. She just tried to communicate with the space and after confirming that the space could open, she first let Dodo come out.

"Master, what place is this There's such a heavy deathly aura here, mixed with resentment. Be careful."

First, Duo Duo turned the flower stand, rotating it all the way around before speaking.

"This is the mission interface. As soon as I took control of this body, I was brought here, and it was intentional."

Although Ripples was communicating with Dodo, she remained on guard. The thing that had attacked her before hadn't appeared again, as if it had hidden itself away.

"Master, that shadowy thing has run off. It's safe here for now, but you best figure out what's going on quickly. This borrowed body of yours can't stay in this environment for long."

Dodo immediately gave a fair and impartial opinion.

"Alright, thanks for watching out for me."

After Liàn Yī finished speaking, she sat down in the first row of the screening room and closed her eyes to begin receiving her original body's memories.

The original name was Fu Lianyi, her family was nouveau riche, and she was considered low-tier at Xingluo Noble School. The boy who pushed her into this place was Bai Xufeng, similar to the original body, also from a nouveau riche background, just different ways of getting rich.

The original's parents were ordinary people. In order to create a better living environment for their child, they learned from others and bought mountains to plant fruit trees, but the couple who were new to business was tricked. They bought two rocky mountains. Let alone planting fruit trees, it was difficult to even grow grass.

But both of Fu Jia's parents had gambled away their entire fortune. Just when the two were at their wit's end, personnel from the national geological survey discovered a rare metal on the mountain of stones in their bag.

This metal was extracted from ore found in stone mountains, so the Fu family, turning misfortune into good fortune, finally had a chance to rise above their circumstances.

This time, the Fu family's parents were also quite clever. They negotiated with the state. After all, they bought the mountaintop land. If they donated it to the state for free, they wouldn't be happy, because they still needed to survive.

Then Fu's father proposed a condition that both parties could accept: only 1% of the profits from the two mountains, for a period of thirty years. After thirty years, the land would return to the state, and after that, the Fu family would no longer participate in the distribution of the mountain's profits.

The Fu family's annual income is determined by the market price of this rare metal, which is not fixed. If the market value of this rare metal depreciates in the future, their income will also decrease. Conversely, if it appreciates, their income will naturally increase. Of course, the Fu family does not participate in anything, they just collect the money.

Originally, the country was planning to buy it outright in one go. However, a multinational corporation also learned about this and directly approached the Fu family with a proposal, offering a very attractive price.

Mr. Fu was very principled and told the relevant personnel about the other party's quotation, stating that he was Chinese and would not betray national interests.

Ultimately, the Fu family reached an agreement with the state. The 30-year limit was shortened to 20 years, but in return, they received protection from the state. Fu's father felt this was better; having money meant nothing if you didn't have life to spend it.

Subsequently, the family of three moved to Guangzhou and settled there. They then donated a swimming pool to Luo Xing Noble School, effectively placing their original body within the school.

Because the Fu family was very generous, Ripples became somewhat famous at school. However, as the original owner had suddenly moved from a small county town to a prestigious school in a first-tier city, she felt a bit out of place and therefore quite insecure.

She was just a sweet girl, with a rather easygoing personality. Most importantly, she wasn't short of money. After entering the school, she also made several friends, and Bai Xufeng took the initiative to get close to her.

Bai Xufu's family is also a nouveau riche. They are offspring of demolition, having made money from the relocation. In addition, Bai's father is good at networking and opened his own company, so it's not like they're just living off others.

Both Bai's and Fu's fathers had the same idea: they both felt that they hadn't studied well enough, so they wanted to raise their children as high achievers. They spared no expense sending their children to this prestigious school.

Because the original owner's family background and Bai Xu's were quite similar, the two grew closer and closer. However, no one broke through that layer of window paper, after all, they were just high school students who knew that academics came first.

It seems like nothing much is happening. If things continue this way, it might just be a simple school romance story.

But unexpectedly, Cui Xudong, a young master from an aristocratic school, took a liking to the original body and wanted her to be his attendant. However, the original body refused.

The original body wasn't stupid. Kids who could get into a prestigious school were either rich, powerful, or the children of influential figures. The boy who wanted to befriend the original body could only be considered powerful, so he lacked a wealthy girlfriend to spend money on him.

He fell for the pure and sweet original body, but unfortunately, the original body refused. Now he's stirred up a hornet's nest.

A small group led by Choi Xu Dong began targeting the original person and her friends.

The original owner knew this was the other party's coercive measure, and she couldn't handle it herself. The school wouldn't care either, so she would go back to find her father, Fu.roblems with his fists. In the future, whenever he encounters a problem, he will choose this method to deal with it. Over time, he will become violent.So after confirming that her son had a problem,...
