Chapter 102: The Reel of Doubt and Confusion

  Chapter 102: Feeling Extremely Perplexed

  。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

  The sound of rain pattering against the glass.

  Lucy woke up and looked at everything in the room, completely unsure of what words to use to describe herself.

  Are you back again?

  Or has it never left at all?

  She picked up the phone on her bedside table to check the time, and it only showed that another night had passed. She had experienced so many things in another era, but what she saw now, in modern times, was just a single night's sleep.

  What were all those things before? Was it just a dream again?

  She subconsciously got up to wash and dress, heated milk, and made breakfast for herself. Since it was raining, she should bring an umbrella to school. She tidied up the things in her backpack, but there wasn't much anyway. Opening her flower-patterned umbrella, she headed off to school, not knowing what she would say if she saw Tang Xiaoxia again in class.

  What kind of energy is she relying on this time?

  The seven-colored Linglong stone was still taken off before she went to sleep, and except for seeing Tang Xiaoxia again, she couldn't prove that those things had really happened in the Spring and Autumn period. Those things were so real in her mind, but now she's back, maybe tonight when she falls asleep again, when she wakes up again, it will be like last time, and she'll be back in the Chu army camp, facing the still chaotic situation, still unable to break through the strange cycle of switching between ancient and modern times.

  Luosi's mood was very complicated on her way to school. Although she was holding an umbrella, the road became difficult to walk due to the rain, but she still felt heavily burdened. When she arrived at school, Tang Xiaoxia did not appear in class again, just like last time.

  This time, there was no teacher asking Tang Xiaoxia why she didn't come to class, and even the students in the class seemed to be completely unaware of her absence. It was as if she had never been to this class from the very beginning, and hadn't appeared in anyone's line of sight at all.

  The desk behind Luosi was empty, as if no one had ever sat there. The girl who should have swapped seats with Tang Xiaohai and sat behind her was still sitting in the same position as before.

  Lucy once again confirmed the time she was in, and indeed, modern times had moved forward by one day. She thought about the Records of the Grand Historian, still no one had heard of this book as before.

  This shows that what happened before was not just an illusion after all. Where did Tang Xiaoxia go?

  Very soon, the class teacher gave Luo Siqi the answer, and Tang Xiaoxia was led in before the first lesson started.

  Luosi Qi saw Tang Xiaoxia, after the teacher's introduction, still looked the same as when she first met him. He just stood in front of her, slightly bowed and said in a toneless voice: "Hello everyone, my name is Tang Xiaoxia, please take care of me." Then he walked indifferently to the empty seat behind Luosi Qi and sat down, for the same reason as Luosi Qi's past experience. Because now there was only one empty seat left in the whole class, which was just behind Luosi Qi.

  "How handsome! How can he be so handsome!" and similar whispers echoed in Lucy's ears.

  Lucy remembered that at the time, she had despised these silly women in her heart, and also had to admit that although this boy was very cold, he was indeed handsome and clean.

  At that time, she had a lot of feelings after Tang Xiaoxiao just arrived. Among them was the subtle movement of a maiden's heart.

  Everything was so similar to what it used to be, and this Tang Xiaoxia was still as sloppy as when she first saw him, until the teacher called out her name, Luosi Qi, during roll call, at which point the handsome guy's eyes lit up, and he seemed to relax for some reason.

  Luosi caught the moment when Tang Xiaoxia's eyes lit up, and she saw that after the first class, Tang Xiaoxia started chatting with her, asking about her age, her interests, and hesitantly asked if she knew an old man who looked like a teacher. All of this was just like how he acted when they first met.

  Luosiqi remembered that at the time, she was puzzled by Tang Xiaoxia's performance. She had asked him what kind of old man it was, and at that time, her teacher had indeed seen many older teachers, but none were like the one Tang Xiaoxia described. Because Luosiqi's confused expression was too obvious, Tang Xiaoxia quickly gave up asking her about the old man and instead fell into a mysterious and contemplative state by himself.

  Luosi didn't know how things had suddenly become like this. She and Tang Xiaoxia had gone through so many things together in ancient times, and their feelings for each other had grown very close after experiencing so much, even surpassing the normal meaning of a couple.

  Now when Tang Xiaoxia asked her about Qingyuanzi again, she didn't know whether to describe the true appearance of Qingyuanzi or pretend to be as confused as before and let him ponder alone once more.

  Is this reincarnation?

  Luo Siqi had once read some theories about reincarnation, where people in the middle would often return to the original point after experiencing an event, and still retain all the memories of their previous experiences.

  But if that's really the case, then modern times should have gone back to when she first met Tang Xiaoxia, but what she can be absolutely sure of now is that today's time is indeed different from the time when she first met Tang Xiaoxia!

  It was Monday morning, but on Lucy's phone, today's date was already Thursday.

  In the end, Luo Xi still decided not to change her original trajectory for now. When chatting with Tang Xiaoxiao, she was still the same as when they first met, telling him that she liked watching transmigration-related things, including movies and TV dramas. However, she had gotten a bit tired of Ming and Qing dynasty transmigration dramas and wanted to watch some earlier ones, such as those set in the Spring and Autumn period or the Three Kingdoms, Tang and Song dynasties. It would be great if she could also transmigrate to those eras.

  She saw Tang Xiaoxia wryly smile, the expression was exactly the same as when she first met him. She saw him lean his head closer to her and whisper: "Actually, I have a way to let you travel back in time!"

  Luosiqi's whole body was like being struck by lightning after hearing Tang Xiaoxia's words.

  She remembered that last time she was a bit carried away and hastily asked what to do, Tang Xiaoxia whispered mysteriously: "Dream on!"

  Luosiqi was so angry at being teased that she turned her head and ignored Tang Xiaoxia, thinking he had to apologize to her, or else she would never speak to him again. But he just stood quietly behind her, without making a sound.

  She felt it was necessary to continue the plot that occurred when she first met Tang Xiaoxiao, so she showed the same state and reaction as that time.

  Different from the last time, she had a normal reaction when she heard Tang Xiaoxia's absurd words, but this time, many things she already knew the answer to. Her feelings made her decide to go along with it, and she was like a fallen leaf in a small river, drifting aimlessly downstream without any purpose, nor did she know what would happen if she continued to drift down like this.

  The scene then shifts to Tang Xiaoxia rushing back during lunch break, panting and asking if she knew about the matter of Shiji. Luosiqi was also panicked at that time due to the sudden disappearance of history, and the two of them asked each other this and that, but eventually gave up their efforts to get to the bottom of things in shock and despair. Before parting ways, Tang Xiaoxia gave her half of the Shiji, which Luosiqi then placed under her pillow, turned off the lights, and gradually fell asleep.

  And her spring and autumn fantasy journey began on that night after she fell asleep, slowly unfolding.

  Luosi woke up from her sleep in Xueyun Valley to the present, but she didn't know what happened after she fell asleep in Chu Jun's military camp. She continued to move forward in modern times as usual, but the things she knew about Tang Xiaoxia suddenly started again like a rewinding movie.

  Something even more surprising happened soon. Although this time, Tang Xiaoxia continued the routine of being introduced by the teacher as a transfer student to his classmates since he met Luosiqi for the first time, but by noon break, Luosiqi had mentally prepared herself and was waiting for Tang Xiaoxia to rush back from outside, panting and asking her about Shiji, when the direction of the story suddenly changed.

  This time, Tang Xiaoxia also came back from outside, but he didn't pant at all. His expression was still cold and calm, without the flustered look that should have been there according to reason. He walked past Luosiqi's side without even looking at her, while Luosiqi couldn't help but follow him back to his seat, turning her head because she kept her gaze on him.

  Unexpectedly, Tang Xiaoxia only showed a very puzzled expression and asked Luosi Qi: "Luosi Qi, do you have something on your mind?"

  Luosiqi, who was shocked in her heart, could only subconsciously shake her head. She saw Tang Xiaoxia take off his thin jacket and spread it on the table, and then lie down on the table to take a nap!

  Luosiqi was about to pull him up from his desk and said, "Wait a minute, classmate. Did you pick up the wrong script? What's going on with this actor? Why didn't he follow the plot?"

  At this time, there were only she and Tang Xiaoxia in the classroom, while other classmates had not returned because they had not finished their lunch.

  But she still didn't have the courage to pull Tang Xiaoxia from his desk and ask him why he had become different from before. She turned her head, staring blankly at the blackboard that had already been wiped clean. Everything from the past was so vivid in her mind. Today, she had originally planned to discuss with Tang Xiaoxia after meeting him at school about why they had returned to modern times again.

  But now everything has changed, everything is chaotic. She turned her head to look at Tang Xiaoxia who was sleeping on the desk again, and she couldn't even tell whether she was in reality or another strange dream.
