Chapter 1524: He Is Qin Yize from Another Timeline

Qin Yize discreetly glanced in Chang Qing’s direction, thinking that if Chang Qing could let go of Qiaoqiao, then a more beautiful life awaited him in the future.

However, the events of the past life would never happen again in this lifetime. Qiaoqiao and Chang Qing no longer had those interactions and bonds; naturally, Chang Qing wouldn’t have other thoughts.

Thinking of this, Qin Yize quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Yet, when Chang Qing saw Qin Yize, the dream he had last night resurfaced in his mind.

It was still that other version of him, anxiously speaking to him. Chang Qing didn’t quite understand, but for some reason, a few sentences stuck in his memory.

That version of him, seemingly trapped in some inexplicable time-space, told Chang Qing that Qin Yize shouldn’t be a person living in this world.

He was Qin Yize from another time-space, his original life in shambles, his family and the Gu Family had suffered devastating disasters...

But he took advantage of the chance when Chang Qing was trapped in the time-space to open the Time-Space Gate and came to this world.

So he wasn’t the former Qin Yize.

He was a stranger from another parallel universe.

Such words are creepy and send chills all over.

Because this also means that the current Qin Yize is an imposter.

This is a terrifying and dreadful thought when pondered in detail.

Yet it’s a matter one has to consider.

Thus, even though Chang Qing fell asleep yesterday, after waking from the dream in shock, he couldn’t fall asleep again.

Despite finding all this absurd, Chang Qing did know that Qin Yize had once been in a coma.

He’s explored this area of knowledge, though it’s just a hobby and not closely related to his major subject. Even though these dreams haven’t been continuous, only occurring three times, they’ve unnerved him.

Clearly, he doesn’t want to dwell on it in his mind, yet it lingers daily, truly impossible to dispel.

This bothers him greatly, but he’s helpless.

When he saw Qin Yize just now, he was calm, yet inwardly couldn’t help but compare, wondering if this Qin Yize is really the old Big Brother Qin.

Unfortunately, the more he compares, the more confused he becomes.

It wasn’t until Gu Junbai sat beside him just now that he felt somewhat clear-headed. When he once again saw Qin Yize’s expression, unchanged from the past, he too quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

It was truly too absurd.

How could there be a parallel universe?

That’s merely a product under science fiction. Even taking a step back, assuming there is a parallel universe, how did the Qin Yize from that realm come to this world and occupy Qin Yize’s body?

It seems impossible upon reflection.

He clenched his hand, suddenly feeling enlightened. He turned and smiled at Zishu, "Do you still have the habit of completing your winter break homework three days before school starts?"

Gu Zishu rolled his eyes and gave Chang Qing a shove, "How can you look at people with outdated perceptions? I changed that habit long ago, whether winter break or summer break. If you don’t believe me, you can ask my brother-in-law..."

Qin Yize seldom agreed, "I can attest to that, it was changed long ago." Then he continued, "Zishu, Chang Qing is excellent in math and physics. He’s on break right now, and you’ve lucked out."

Gu Zishu giggled, "Indeed, I’m lucky, right sis."

Gu Qianqian nodded hurriedly before Gu Qiaoqiao could speak, "Yes, my brother is right."

"Who’s your brother, Gu Qianqian, you’re the younger sister, okay..."

"You’re the younger brother."

"You’re the younger sister."

"You’re the younger brother, brother!" Gu Qianqian emphasized.

"You’re the younger sister, sister!" Gu Zishu naturally wouldn’t back down.

Everyone: "..."

Xiao Wen chuckled softly, "Qianqian, I think it’s better for you to be the younger sister. Isn’t it nice to have a brother to protect you?"

"If he were my brother, he’d boss me around every day. I want to be the older sister." Gu Qianqian, having suffered enough, expressed her disagreement.

"Who’s bossing you around? Don’t flaunt a few idioms. If you were the older sister, you’d manage to control me tightly..."

Gu Zishu obviously wouldn’t concede.

And so, the Gu Family began a new round of debate over siblings.

Gu Qiaoqiao watched everything before her with a smile. Happiness is hard-won and must be cherished.

Joyful days go by the fastest; in the blink of an eye, after the fifth day, everyone returned to work, and the Qin Family and Gu Family high school seniors began school early.

Gu Qianqian and Qin Xiaoyu are taking exams this year, so their studies are extremely intense and demanding.

However, both girls’ grades are excellent, and there’s no doubt they’ll be able to get into their desired universities.

And Qin Yize officially transferred Chang Qing to the National Security Research Institute.

Strictly speaking, Chang Qing hasn’t formally graduated yet, but his talent has long been apparent. He doesn’t need to wait for graduation to do what he wants, and learning tasks are a breeze for him.

On the day he officially joined the National Security Research Institute, he became a researcher carrying a significant responsibility, collaborating with others to contribute to our nation’s strength.

On this day, three soldiers came to the Chang Family in Stone Town. They presented credentials and informed Chang Qing’s father that they were no longer allowed to inquire about Chang Qing or mention anything about him to others, or else he’d be treated as betraying the nation.

Chang Qing’s father was frightened, and Chang Qing’s stepmother wilted like a frosted eggplant. Their plan to extort money from Chang Qing was finally completely thwarted.

Moreover, from now on, it was as though Chang Qing no longer existed.

Still, before leaving, the three soldiers left Chang Qing’s father a subsidy provided according to regulations. This unexpected windfall made Chang Qing’s stepmother so happy she couldn’t sleep for days, hiding the money under her pillow, only to have it stolen by her eldest son for gambling, resulting naturally in him losing everything.

From then on, Chang Qing had no ties with the Chang Family.

Since the second day after New Year’s, Chang Qing hadn’t dreamt about the other Chang Qing anymore, but secretly, Chang Qing truly began his research on parallel universes during his spare time.

Nobody knew about this.

Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize continued to live in the house in the base compound belonging to them. Although Gu Qiaoqiao was able to drive and had obtained a driver’s license, Brother Li San worried about her tiring herself out, so he continued to act as her chauffeur. That was his job, as aside from driving, he truly didn’t know anything else.

On the tenth, Qin Yize received a phone call. After hanging up, he felt quite satisfied; the caller was his friend Captain Zhang.

Captain Zhang told him over the phone that several key targets of attention in Cliff Village had received their due punishment. The Fool was dead, and the Fool’s Mother, her body festering, was driven out of Cliff Village by villagers worried about contagion. Having nowhere to go, she got lost in the mountains, and when people found her, she had already been torn apart by wild beasts.
