Chapter 3
The original owner's body was too weak. She fell into a deep sleep.
She dreamed that she had actually returned to her laboratory.
The lab that the company had arranged for her was very secretive. Apart from the chairman of the company and her assistant, almost no one knew the location of the lab.
Everything was the same. She touched the desk, computer, microscope, the syringe she used for injections, and the discarded test tubes.
The computer was on with her WeChat account logged in, and many messages kept popping up, all from family asking where she was.
She touched the keyboard and only then felt the sorrow of having died and left the modern world.
She would never see her parents and family again.
After spacing out for a while, she saw a bottle of iodine tincture on the desk. This was what she had taken out before injecting herself. Since she had been in the research institute for a long time, there were always various drugs in the institute.
She opened the medicine cabinet. Almost none of the drugs had been touched.
If she had these drugs, then perhaps that child could still be saved.
She didn't know how long she had slept when she heard the creaking sound of the door opening, and she suddenly woke up from her dream.
A maid came in holding a lamp, carrying a plate of steamed buns which she heavily put down on the table, and coldly said, "Consort Yuan, please eat!"
After that, she put down the lamp on the table and left.
Yuan Qingling was in a daze, as if she had lost something. It was just a dream!
She really was hungry. She slowly got out of bed and walked over. But her foot was suddenly tripped by something. Looking down, she saw a medicine chest on the floor.
Her blood instantly froze.
This medicine chest was exactly the same as the one in her research institute.
She quickly picked up the medicine chest and brought it to the table to open it. Her trembling hands slowly touched the medicines inside, identical, completely identical to those in her research institute.
She could barely breathe, she simply could not believe what she was seeing.
It was already inconceivable that her soul had transmigrated, but now this medicine chest had come with her too?
No, no, it didn't seem to be there before. It only appeared after she had that dream.
What was going on?
She first discarded any supernatural explanations. She tried to use scientific reasoning to explain this.
Let's just say this was a parallel universe...
No, no, that didn't make sense. Even if parallel universes existed, and she had somehow entered one by chance, her mind was still her own, this body wasn't hers, there was no way to explain this.
After a long time, she finally calmed down.
She hid the medicine chest, wolfing down a few steamed buns. Then she lay back down, wanting to see if she could dream her way back into the research institute.
But her emotions were surging, she was extremely excited. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Not only that, but for the next two days, she still could not sleep. Even when her body was completely exhausted without an ounce of strength, and she couldn't even open her eyes, her mind was still racing, unable to settle down.
On the third day, she still hadn't fallen asleep.
Sitting in front of the bronze mirror, she saw that she looked like a ghost. Disheveled hair, sunken eye sockets, sallow complexion, a small scar on her brow. The wounds on her wrists didn't seem to be a big problem anymore, just occasionally throbbing with pain.
This was a sign of healing wounds.
She wondered how that boy was doing.
She slowly redirected her thoughts, feeling that fretting was useless. She should adapt to her present life first.
So when the maid brought her meal again, she asked, "Lv Ya, how is Steward Chen's grandson?"
The maid was called Lv Ya. She had the original owner's memories in her mind.
Lv Ya coldly said, "He's close to death, aren't you happy about it?"
Why would she be happy?
