What should I do if I lose my memory after transmigrating into a book?

Chapter 150 Spring Water

Perhaps he was thinking of her.

Jiang Ci's thoughts drifted, and he suddenly missed her voice and her scent.

When Shen Xi complains, she doesn't like to speak first; she prefers to stare at people with a resentful look beforehand.

Jiang Ci always understood what she wanted to say immediately, and he would immediately stand by her side and ask what had happened.

The subsequent communication proceeded naturally.

Another ding-dong.

The glowing screen displayed the message.

Shen Xi: [It's so late, aren't you resting yet?]

Jiang Ci glanced at the time on his phone; it was just eleven o'clock, the time when Shen Xi would begin her mobile phone nightlife.

As Shen Xi usually says, "Only the time at night is truly my own time."

Jiang Ci didn't quite understand, but Shen Xi refused his nighttime companionship.

Therefore, Jiang Ci could only get water by going out in the middle of the night and judge her rest time by the time she turned off the lights in her room.

Therefore, when Jiang Ci saw this text message, the veins on his forehead throbbed.

Shen Xi was trying to say goodbye to him in a tactful way so she could go play on her phone by herself.

Jiang Ci pinched his temple, trying to evoke her concern. "A feng shui master said I have bad luck today."

Jiang Ci typed it out word by word, then read it over and over again before sending it out seriously.

Although he also felt that the statement sounded like a complaint.

Sure enough, not long after.

Shen Xi replied with several heavy question marks.

Shen Xi: [?? Isn't this a feng shui master? And he also does fortune telling on the side?]

Shen Xi: [Nine times out of ten, what he says is false. Don't believe him. Believe me, you're lucky, you're a celestial being!!]

Jiang Ci leaned against the soft black headboard, carefully studying the message Shen Xi had sent. A slight smile gradually appeared on his lips, revealing a hint of embarrassment.

His eyes darted around, and he grabbed the ice water from the bedside table, gulping it down his throat. The icy water seemed unable to cool the burning fire raging within him.

He wanted to see her.

With no one around, Jiang Ci lazily pressed an empty glass of ice water against his porcelain-white face in the quiet room, held his phone in his right hand, and sent a voice message.

The audio is short.

Shen Xi replied quite quickly: "[He's a fraud, probably because he's successful in feng shui and wants to dabble in fortune telling. After all, it's a popular profession, making a living with your mouth. But the way he speaks is so tactless.]"

Shen Xi: [Alright, don't overthink it. You'll be back after you finish work. Get some rest, bye! *^_^*]

She deliberately sent an emoticon in an attempt to express her sincerity.

Jiang Ci was initially excited, but this girl stirred things up. Now that she's just left, Jiang Ci is left feeling unsettled and a little uncomfortable.

I feel terrible, both physically and mentally.

But he could only bid farewell helplessly.

It's also possible that they were inexplicably injected with a lot of motivation.

The next day, Jiang Ci got up before dawn and ran around the hotel several times. When he saw that no one was awake yet, he simply went into the half-built ancestral hall by himself.

The memorial tablets here have long been neatly arranged, and the faint scent of incense wafts out.

Jiang Ci turned around and wrote down what he needed to do next.

Just as he finished giving his instructions, a stick of incense in the incense burner in front of Jiang Ci suddenly broke in two.

Jiang Ci watched, without a single thought in his mind.

He stood there listlessly, staring at the broken half of the cigarette. It had become a useless stick of incense, but in the next second, it silently began to burn again.

Jiang Ci stood with his hands in his pockets, his hair still damp with fine droplets of water, and the scent of sandalwood lingered around him.

He inexplicably thought that this incense stick was quite resilient.

A light rain was falling intermittently, and only the young man stood in the ancestral hall, turning to look at the incense altar.

This is the scene that Jiang Hui saw when he arrived.

"Why are you up so early today?"

Jiang Hui smiled and quietly approached her son, wanting to pat his head.

Jiang Ci had noticed him the moment he entered. He deftly stepped aside and dodged Jiang Hui's clutches.

He was unusually annoyed: "It's getting late, why did you get up so late?"

Jiang Hui saw that his son's beautiful big eyes were full of annoyance. His clever mind went blank for a moment, and he raised his wrist to look at the emerald green watch, his eyes wandering.

Oh, it's 7:50.

It's still early, isn't that right?

Seeing his puzzled look, Jiang Ci felt a sense of desperation. "If we get up earlier, things here can be resolved faster. Mr. Jiang, do you think the incense altar is placed correctly? And look to the right, after donating to others, didn't you consider donating to your own home? Can't the drainage ditch next to it be rerouted?"

The young master's face flushed slightly, his eyes were frighteningly bright, and as he looked at President Jiang, his chest heaved as he finished speaking.

Jiang Hui was completely bewildered by the outburst. He held his breath, and finally, unable to bring himself to ask,

"Son, has anything been going wrong lately?"

Jiang Cixin felt exhausted, as if he had punched a pillow. He touched his chest and said directly,

"Forget it, let's speed up the process."

These words couldn't be more blunt. Jiang Hui glared at the good-for-nothing kid with annoyance. He had been scolded by him first thing in the morning, and before he had even eaten, the kid had already gotten angry.

This kid is currently in Yuancheng, but his heart is still in Yunxiaxiang.

Unfilial descendants!!!

This is absolutely outrageous and unfilial!!!

Despite this, when Jiang Hui took over and continued the work, the progress was twice as fast as before.

Understanding that the disaster had just passed and many people were facing unemployment, Jiang Hui directly hired many local workers and paid them generous wages.

The city has begun to resume work.

……

Even in Shenxi, far away in Yunxiaxiang, life is still bustling and lively.

It wasn't like this at the beginning.

On the first day Jiang Ci left, Shen Xi faced the loneliness of having to eat alone after her dining buddy was gone.

She sat alone in the huge house and suddenly felt that it was very empty. Having only eaten at home all day, she decided to eat in the cafeteria after noon.

That noon, fluffy willow catkins filled the air. Shen Xi carefully wore a blue mask and sat in the classroom, painfully watching the willow catkins fly wildly outside the window.

As soon as the lunch break bell rang, it was no exaggeration to say that a cacophony of noise erupted as students in school uniforms rushed out the door.

It was still sunny outside, and Shen Xi didn't want to squeeze in with the crowd. She lay on the table and waited until most people had left before slowly walking out.

She walked through the corridor outside the classroom and went into the restroom.

A short while later, when Shen Xi came out, there were still several boys crowding around outside.

Shen Xi put her hand under the tap and looked back in confusion. Shouldn't everyone be out eating at this hour?

Do boys hold hands when they go to the toilet?

Soon, she no longer had such doubts.

She saw that the boys had black tattoos covering either their left or right arms. They were blocking the toilet door, laughing and joking around like carefree young men.

Shen Xi wiped the water off with a tissue, lowered her head, and quietly walked out. She didn't like to have contact with these people.

Upon first contact, he was no different from the local thugs in her village, constantly hurling insults like "your mother" or "my mother," and there were also those law-breaking lunatics who were best avoided.

slip away.

The three men blocking the men's restroom were grinning slyly as they looked inside.

One of the boys, with a buzz cut and a scar on his forehead, looked menacing and ordered people around.

"In a moment, you'll put the mop against the door and lock him inside, just like before. Be quiet, don't leave any marks so no one can use it against you, understand?"

He kicked the boy across from him who was frowning and craving a cigarette.

The boy didn't get angry when he heard the order. Instead, he stopped smiling and looked at the crew-cut guy with a respectful and obedient expression.

Just as they finished discussing and were about to go in to check on the results, a beautiful young girl suddenly emerged from the women's restroom across the street.

The boy in the gray hoodie who hadn't said a word made a lewd expression at the other two boys.

The other two exchanged knowing smiles.

The boy in the gray hoodie seemed to be staring at the girl, his desire growing stronger with each glance. He walked towards the entrance of the women's restroom.

Just as Shen Xi lowered her eyes and was about to walk into the corridor, a leg of medium length blocked her way.

The gray-haired boy gave Shen Xi a whistle in a cocky manner.

"Little sister, you're so pretty! We've never seen you at school before. What class are you in?"

His gaze was extremely presumptuous and rude.

Shen Xi raised her head, stared intently at the ugly man for a moment, and spoke expressionlessly.

"none of your business."

Instantly, the people gathered in the restroom fell silent.

The boy with the buzz cut frowned, then glanced at Shen Xi with interest, a slight smirk playing on his lips.

This girl has quite a fiery temper.

But the boy in the gray hoodie had always hung out with the school bully and had never been so disobedient before. His face darkened instantly, and his voice became sinister.

"You shameless woman, don't you know how to be ungrateful? I only said a few words to you because you're pretty, and you really think you're something special."

Shen Xi slowly rolled up his sleeves before lifting his eyelids to look at the delinquent opposite him.

You've really messed with me, haven't you?

She smiled beautifully, making her features come alive, and her fox-like eyes looked at them with a watery gaze.

Just as the three boys were staring at her in a daze...

Shen Xi spoke up, "Do you want to fight me? You little bastards who only know how to harass girls?"

She looked at them with a half-smile, but there was no smile in her eyes.

He keeps calling her a "bitch" and calling her "young master." Does he really think he's some kind of prince from Beijing? He even puts on airs with her.

Even if it were the young prince of Beijing, he would still bring her water to wash her feet every day.

Ha, a bunch of scumbags.

Shen Xi was furious. She was hungry when she ran into this unlucky group of people.

The three boys, upon hearing Shen Xi, a girl who was so refined and had a smile as alluring as a fox, were now spouting such arrogant words.

The man with the buzz cut was the first to walk to Shen Xi's side. His words made Shen Xi want to vomit up her breakfast.

"You? I could dominate you in bed..."

—Bang! ! !

With a dull thud, the man with the buzz cut was thrown to the ground.

No one expected Shen Xi to make a move.

At this moment, Shen Xi was even smiling as she looked at them, her eyes crinkling as she spoke.

"If you can't wash your mouth properly, go rinse it in the toilet. Why do you need your older sister to tell you how to behave?"

The man with the buzz cut was thrown to the ground, feeling dizzy and disoriented. He could even feel that when he was thrown over the shoulder, he was spun around and thrown to the ground.

But the two men standing there didn't know that. They saw their boss being thrown to the ground in such an undignified manner.

The two thugs instantly dropped their lecherous expressions, looking at Shen Xi with disdain. "You ungrateful slut!"

—Slap! Slap!

—Slap! Slap!

Instantly, symmetrical bright red handprints appeared on the faces of the two boys.

The gray-haired boy was even beaten until his nose bled.

Seeing their angry glares, Shen Xi remained unmoved as they approached, arms crossed, and spoke.

"I forgot to tell you who I am. My name is Shen Xi. Just in case you've got the wrong person, and also in case you're not well-educated and can't read..."

Shen Xi’s voice was clear and bright, “The Shen with the water radical and the Xi with the stream radical. I’m from Class 7 of Grade 1. You see, it’s the class at the very back of this floor.”

The man with the buzz cut, supporting his head, shakily stood up, touching the wall as he did so, his eyes filled with a sinister glint.

"Shen Xi, ha, I'll remember you."

Shen Xi picked at her ear out of boredom. "Oh, and then?"

She pointed at the three of them and continued, "You might not know this, but I'm first in the whole grade, and second in the whole grade is my...brother. Oh, and I always have a bodyguard with me, but he's downstairs right now."

If we don't scare these people away, there will be more trouble in the future.

It looks like a toad, but behaves no differently than a rat in a sewer.

The gray-haired guy wanted to make another move, but was stopped by the crew-cut guy the moment he made it.

He looked at the crew-cut man with a puzzled expression.

The man with the buzz cut gave him a look, signaling him to back off. The buzz cut was the boss after all, and his words carried weight.

The other two people remained still.

This time, the man with the buzz cut finally looked at the girl across from him with a different perspective. A while ago, when school started, rumors circulated that a parent of a new first-year high school student had donated several million yuan to the school.

Then came a flurry of rumors that the two students were from a top-tier wealthy family in Beijing, but were mentally unstable and wanted to suffer here.

The crew-cut guy initially laughed it off and didn't take it seriously. After all, what conflict could people of their level possibly have with these young masters and ladies?

Although they were scoundrels, they still had some sense of propriety, except that the people who were beaten dared not speak out.

Nobody wants to be expelled from high school after finally making it there.

But he never expected that his luck would be so bad at noon today, and that he would actually run into this legendary person.

A hint of apprehension appeared in the buzz cut's eyes.
