From Dog to Goddess: My CEO Ex's Afterlife Regret - Chapter 4

Under the arrangement of the system, Bai Yashu suddenly passed away due to a heart condition.

And I awoke in a new body.

Meng Yichen’s mother died when he was fifteen, and his father only remarried last year.

My new identity is that of his stepmother’s daughter, Miranda.

Miranda had always lived abroad with her father and returned to the country due to work reasons, temporarily staying at Meng Yichen’s home.

I familiarized myself with this new body and my work, while maintaining a polite distance from Meng Yichen, and took the opportunity to observe his “wife-chasing crematorium.”

After Bai Yashu’s death, Meng Yichen was in a daze, listless for half a month, locking himself in her room every day, crying his heart out.

He even cut off all the women around him, as if he intended to mourn her for life.

He wouldn’t let me step into Bai Yashu’s bedroom, nor allow anyone to touch her belongings, and he even wore the necklace she gave him every day.

It turns out I was so important to him.

A trace of softness rose in my heart, and I even wanted to tell him that I was Bai Yashu.

But every time I tried to speak, my mouth seemed to be sealed by some force, unable to make a sound.

This is probably a taboo set by this world.

So, I began to drop various hints.

I took him to places we had once visited together, reliving the scenes most familiar to him, and spoke of memories that belonged only to us.

Yet every time I did so, his eyes were filled with confusion, strangeness, and doubt, but never surprise.

In fact, after each hint, he only distanced himself further from me, then would walk straight into Bai Yashu’s room, staying there the whole night.
