Chapter 631 - Accidental Death

Chapter 631 - Accidental Death

After saying that, Yan Jinyi skipped in place twice and said, "I'm kinda urgent. Mr. Huo, goodbye, I won't see you off. I wish you good night and pleasant dreams!"
After Huo Xishen left, Yan Jinyi quietly went to the storeroom, which was also the place that the original Yan Jinyi used to stay in.
The area was not half as large as her current room. There was only a single bed, a closet, and a desk, but the original Yan Jinyi had decorated it very warmly.
Since she was still using someone else's body after all, Yan Jinyi respected the original owner very much and tried to maintain the original appearance of things here when switching rooms.
The window was facing the main gate of the manor so she could even imagine how the original owner used to stand here everyday to wait for Huo Xishen's car to appear.
When she thought about it carefully, she felt that everything seemed to have been predestined.
If the original owner had been a little more cheerful, a little more bubbly, and a little more confident, her relationship with Huo Xishen might have been loving.
The reason that the original owner died in an accident was precisely her withdrawn and timid character, thus giving Yan Jinyi the chance to be reborn.
'Died in an accident...'
'Died in an accident...?'
Yan Jinyi suddenly looked into the house with dilated pupils.
'Right, how did the original Yan Jinyi die? Why don't I remember anything that happened in those two days before the rebirth?'
She remembered that she was at the film set when she woke up so she wondered if the original owner had died abruptly at that time.
'That doesn't seem right, why would she pass away for no reason?'
'Why do the memories of the events that happened in the few days before filming seem so confusing? It's as if I forgot something.'
Yan Jinyi hurriedly ran to Huo Qingyuan's room. Huo Qingyuan, who was still binge-watching dramas, suddenly got a great shock when she saw Yan Jinyi.
"Second Sister-in-law, why have you suddenly appeared? You almost scared me to death!" She patted her chest and complained.
"Huo Qingyuan, do you remember what I did on this day last year?" Yan Jinyi asked as she handed her cell phone to her while pointing on the date of the calendar.
"Huh? How can I possibly remember? Did you lose some treasure of yours, Second Sister-in-law?"
Based on the date, Huo Qingyuan should have had a hostile relationship with Yan Jinyi, and she particularly loathed her so there was no way she would pay attention to what she had done.
Yan Jinyi suddenly realized that she had yet to be reborn at that time and the Huo family members including the maids, were not on good terms with her back then. Hence, it seemed pointless to ask them either.
"Second sister-in-law..."
"Oh, it's nothing." Yan Jinyi stood up calmly and then glanced at the tablet in Huo Qingyuan's hand. "Why are you still watching dramas at such a late hour? And you're still thinking of going to graduate school? Dream on."
"…"
'Why is she launching a personal attack on me?'
During breakfast, the Huo siblings discovered that Yan Jinyi was particularly quiet today. To be precise, she was behaving in a bizarre manner.
The porridge in front of her was being stirred into a thick paste and she didn't even realize it.
Huo Zihang couldn't help but ask, "Second Sister-in-law, are you heartbroken?"
After saying that, he discovered that there was something amiss with what he said so he looked at Huo Xishen carefully.
'Thank God.'
Yan Jinyi actually didn't teach him a lesson, which was rare. "Huo Zihang, I didn't get diagnosed with any illness in the past year, did I?"
Huo Zihang was confused by her question. "Second Sister-in-law, wouldn't you know best if you had fallen ill or not?"
Yan Jinyi glared at him.
Huo Chengyu chimed in in a warm voice, "Sister-in-law, are you ill?"
'Sister-in-law?'
'Hasn't Huo Chengyu always called me Jinyi in the past?'
"No, I'm purely curious."
She was extremely vexed because she couldn't figure out exactly how the original owner died. The feeling was terrible.
"Darling, are you planning to invest in a new film?" Huo Xishen replaced the bowl of porridge in front of her before moving Yan Jinyi's favorite dish towards her.
