After leaving the world, Xu Zifan returned to the space of nothingness, which belongs to his own state of adjustment. Whether it is sentimentally attached to all kinds of feelings in his life, or the recovery of the psychological state of an elderly, it must be adjusted to the best state in order to start a new life. He didn’t know how long, by the time he felt ready, he entered the next world.
When Xu Zifan woke up this time, he was not alone. The noise and laughter of boys and girls gave him a headache. He remained motionless and opened his eyes. This is a classroom, looking at the students, they are almost 17 or 18 years old. This should be a high school, and he is sleeping in the corner of the last row.
He sat upright against the back wall, moving his numb arms and learning about the world.
When the bell rang, the students quickly returned to their seats, took out their papers to prepare for class, and those who came back late were hurrying to their seats. Suddenly, a girl jumped in from the back door and sat next to him, patted him nervously and asked, “did the teacher come in to class before this?”
Xu Zifan spoke calmly, “I don’t know.”
“You went to sleep again, didn’t you? That’s all I’m asking you to do for me, and you won’t help me?” Seeing his expressionless face, the girl seemed angry and softened her voice and said, “will you cover for me in the future? My birthday is coming, I want to work to buy myself birthday gift, please Zifan.”
Xu Zifan glanced at her, this is the original owner’s childhood fiancée–Ji Yuxin, is also the true daughter in this ‘true and fake daughter’ world, a woman who took the original owner as a spare tire. The time now is on the eve of the exposure of the ‘true and false daughter’ incident. Ji Yuxin falls in love with a rich boy, trying to play with that boy every day, even skipping classes, and asks the original to covered for her. Of course, the relationship between her and the Young Master was a secret, and the original owner didn’t know about it.
(TNote: ‘true and fake daughter’ = it’s a known cliché plot where two female characters are switched at young, almost like ‘the prince and the pauper’. It’s so common, its named ‘true and fake daughter’ or ‘true and fake gold’)
Xu Zifan saw the teacher passing through the back door and was about to enter the classroom. “Someone saw you with Li Xudong. What is your relationship with him?”
Ji Yuxin instantly tightened her body and said unnaturally, “who are you listening to? You must have heard it wrong. How could I know Li Xudong?”
“Oh, that’s for the best. After all, we’re an engaged couple, and I don’t like green hats.”
(TNote: green hat = a euphemism for being cheated on/ cuckold.)
Ji Yuxin looked at her classmates nearby and whispered, “what green hat? We’re not in love!”
Xu Zifan turned to look at her and whispered, “you mean you don’t want to marry me? Then why didn’t you say so before? If you really think that way, we’ll talk to my parents and your parents when we get home from school.”
“Ah? No need…”
“It’s time for class. Don’t talk. ” Xu Zifan took out a paper from his schoolbag and looked at the blackboard to listen to the teacher’s questions.
All the words from Ji Yuxin were blocked in her throat. She glared at him angrily, and then took out her papers. Secretly scolding him in her heart. Can low achiever understand her? He is so pretentious! Thinking of Li Xudong, she felt guilty again. Why is Xu Zifan different than usual? Did he really find out that she had a relationship with Li Xudong? But, so what if he knew? What age is this, still match making children from the womb? Their engagement doesn’t count at all! Why can’t she pursue her own love?
Ji Yuxin bowed her head and thought wishfully, not in the mood to listen to the teacher’s topic at all; But Xu Zifan listened very carefully. He feels very strange, because, although he has learned a lot of things, they are only the most practical skills he has learned from society, and he hasn’t really learned about them seriously. Having such an opportunity this time, he decided to be a good student and have a good experience of being a student. He heard that the college entrance examination is so hard, it’s evil. He didn’t know if it’s true. It should be interesting.

After math class, Xu Zifan never forgot, whether he understood it or not, and logical thinking was also his strong point; But it was impossible to understand math from the third year of senior high school. Class is over, and there happened to be a day off on the weekend. Xu Zifan packed his papers, and put his math books and math exercise books into his schoolbag and planned to study math at home this weekend. He got up and said, “come on, I’m going home today and talk to our parents. You’ll have to skip work for once.”
Ji Yuxin did not expect that he still remembered this. If she suddenly comes home and says that she doesn’t recognize this engagement, her parents will definitely ask her why. In addition, she doesn’t come home for lunch and dinner, and only comes home after school in the evening. They will certainly suspect her of young love. What is she going to do when they find out about her and Li Xudong? Li Xudong has not personally admitted their relationship. If her side is under the control of her parents, Li Xudong certainly won’t come to her. Won’t it be over?
Ji Yuxin slowly packed her schoolbag, and when all the other students were gone, she handed it to Xu Zifan. Xu Zifan spoke coldly: “I used to carry it for you because you are my fiancée. Since you are not, you can carry it yourself.” With that, he strode out without looking back at her.
Ji Yuxin looked at his back in amazement and hurriedly caught up with him, only until he disappeared around the corner. The heavy schoolbag made her fingers ache. Xu Zifan didn’t help her with it, she put in too many books, in order to buy time. She carried it unsteadily. By the time she reached the parking shed, her forehead was sweating.
She gasped and put her bag on the back seat of his bike and said angrily, “Why are you so ungentlemanly? Why are you losing your temper?”
Xu Zifan unlocked the bike and said, “I didn’t lose my temper. We are 18 years old. Of course, we should avoid suspicion if we are not engaged. By the way, I just remembered that you should stop sitting on my back seat and go back by bus.”
Ji Yuxin hurriedly looked around and whispered angrily, “stop talking! This is at school, why do you keep saying ‘not engaged’, ‘broken engagement’, ‘splitting up’? People will laugh!”
“Here’s your schoolbag. Go and wait for the bus. I’m leaving.” Xu Zifan stuffed her schoolbag into her arms, pushed his bike and turned away.
Ji Yuxin hurriedly followed him, holding a heavy schoolbag, aggrieved to death in her heart, “Zi Fan, would you please stop doing this? I handed out flyers for two hours. I’m thirsty and tired. I don’t have any strength. You… you bullied me again! I’ll go back to tell aunt and uncle.”
Xu Zifan didn’t believe her. She followed Li Xudong to either a high-end restaurant or an entertainment clubhouse. What flyers did she hand out? He said carelessly, “I would have forgotten about it if you didn’t mention it. Tomorrow I’ll go to the teacher to change our seats. After that, if you want to go to work, you can ask your new desk mate to cover for you.”
“As for you? We have been desk mates since we were children. Are you going to be a stranger to me?”
“as for a green plum sitting next to me, other girls will misunderstand. Since you are not interested in me, don’t keep me from falling in love.”
(TNote: green plum = female part of childhood sweethearts. Bamboo horse, is the male counterpart. ‘Green plum and Bamboo horse’ are usually a couple that are have feelings since childhood.)
Ji Yuxin thought he was jealous and wondered if he really heard that she had something with Li Xudong. Originally, she didn’t take what Xu Zifan said seriously, but she thought that if she got a new desk mate, her truancy would definitely come out, so she said anxiously, “are you done? I don’t mean that. It’s just… girls are thin-skinned, and we’re still the same as before. Just don’t say anything when you get home.”
Xu Zifan stopped and looked at her. “you mean we’re engaged?”
Ji Yuxin’s face changed and said angrily, “Yes, is that all right?”
Xu Zifan nodded, pointed to the bus and said, “your schoolbag is too heavy, so I won’t take you. It’s more comfortable for you. I’m leaving.”
“Xu Zifan! Xu Zifan?!”
Xu Zifan pedaled away, ignoring the shouting behind him. He already had the result he wanted, and there was no need to waste any more time on this person.

The Xu family and the Ji family have been neighbors since their grandfather’s generation, and they are as close as relatives, so when the wives of the two families gave birth to a boy and a girl, they tied them with an engagement. The original owner and Ji Yuxin grew up together. They were desk mates from kindergarten to high school. Although they didn’t ‘confess feelings’ and did not really fall in love, the original owner liked Ji Yuxin very much, and Ji Yuxin always had an ambiguous attitude. Everyone thought they would be together after the college entrance examination, and then they would graduate from college and get married.
Unexpectedly, she was almost hit by a car when she went out. She met Li Xudong who was in the car. Li Xudong was a famous rich second generation in school, which amused her. They ate together at noon and evening every day, went in and out of the high-end clubhouse together, and even opened a room. The original owner had been kept in the dark and had no idea.
Later, Li Xudong took Ji Yuxin to attend Yan Yaru’s birthday party, publicly exposed the ‘true and false daughter’ incident, and they exchanged back. Ji Yuxin changed from an ordinary girl into a rich daughter. The original owner was shocked by the fact that Ji Yuxin and Li Xudong were together and ran to question her, but she said she only regarded him as a brother and never took her parents’ joke seriously. Of course, the original owner did not believe it. The ambiguity between them for so many years was not fake. How can he be regarded as a brother? But Ji Yuxin did not admit it. he had no choice but to give up.
But not long after, Ji Yuxin quarreled with Li Xudong, she unexpectedly came to the original owner in the middle of the night to cry. The jealous Li Xudong found someone to break the original owner’s legs. The original owner became disabled. He once ran into Ji Yuxin, he asked Ji Yuxin whether that day was intentional or not. Ji Yuxin didn’t deny it and mocked him, laughing at him as a poor man who dared to think of a rich family’s daughter. It was a pipe dream. A poor guy like him didn’t even deserve to carry her shoes, so he deserved to be used by her. After all, it’s quite useful to stimulate your boyfriend with a childhood relationship.
The original owner only liked Ji Yuxin, no intention to defend his relationship with her, but she broke his leg because of her own private interests and was affected by it all his life. The original owner is only a little guy, couldn’t deal with Ji Yuxin, couldn’t deal with Li Xudong, couldn’t even vent his anger. He can no longer smile with his whole family.
Now Xu Zifan has crossed over, the task is to replace the original owner, counterattack, become more than the Yan family and Li family, find a wife who is much better than Ji Yuxin, and make Ji Yuxin repent.
The task of counter attack is usually the obsession of the original owner. The original owner got such an opportunity by chance. If he is unable to do so, he would ask a world emissary to counter attack. The price paid is not small, but people with grievances are often willing to do anything for revenge. The only thing Xu Zifan can do for them is to do a good job.
It’s half a month before Ji Yuxin would know her true identity and be taken to a birthday party to expose the truth. There is nothing to worry about. Now, as a high school senior and low achiever, he would take the monthly exam soon, so he decided to go back and study hard first. After all, now, this face belongs to him. He doesn’t want to be humiliated with having low results.
