From Dog to Goddess: My CEO Ex's Afterlife Regret - Chapter 1
After being erased by the system, I became the white moonlight engraved in Meng Yichen’s heart.
But my soul ended up in another body.
I thought he loved me so much that he would surely recognize me.
But in the end, all I got was: “Stop pretending, you’re just a poor imitation, and it really disgusts me.”
Upon hearing this, I knew it was time to end this farce.
Meng Yichen knelt before the grave, silently burning paper money.
I stood by his side, my gaze fixed on the photograph on the tombstone.
The woman in the photo smiled gently, as if untouched by the mundane world.
That face, like her name “Bai Yashu,” was pure and flawless, elegant and ethereal.
Unfortunately, that face no longer belonged to me.
Today is her memorial day, and also the birthday of this body I inhabit.
“You didn’t need to come along. I don’t want her to misunderstand.”
Meng Yichen lowered his head, his tone cold and distant.
“I just wanted to come as your sister, her sister, to pay my respects,” I explained calmly.
“I told you, she was my only sister.”
I swallowed the bitterness and smiled faintly, “My mom is now your mom too. Legally speaking, we are siblings, and that’s an undeniable fact.”
His hand paused, clutching the paper money, and he looked up at me through the swirling smoke, his eyes obscure and unreadable.
But I knew what he was thinking.
[Bai Yashu, don’t even think about it. Legally speaking, we are siblings, and that’s an undeniable fact.]
From the depths of memory, that cold, harsh voice resurfaced.
Once, Meng Yichen had rejected the girl in the photograph in just this way.
Now, as I say the same words to him, I wonder how much he remembers.
Meng Yichen tossed the last stack of paper money into the fire basin, casually leaving a remark: “As long as you know.”
With that, he walked away without looking back, leaving me standing alone before the grave, staring at that familiar yet distant face, burning solitary in the desolate glow of the fire.
