Chapter 1925: Chapter 1925: Mirror World (2)
Chuzheng found the original owner’s phone, logged into her Weibo account, and went straight onto it.
The original owner is quite famous now, young and talented, having won many awards, and well-known in her circle.
Her matters still have some buzz.
[Plagiarizing something from ten years ago? That’s unbelievably shameless!]
[Were such advanced designs really around ten years ago?]
[Whose works are those anyway? They aren’t signed; what if they belong to someone else?]
[If they were hers, she would have clarified by now. So long without a response, they can’t be hers.]
[Isn’t design just you copying me and me copying you?]
[This is too blatant, not even a tweak.]
Chuzheng randomly scrolled through the comments, then finally carefully looked at the evidence that originally marked the owner as plagiarizing.
It was a post with several pictures posted, taken with who knows what, and very poor pixels.
But you could tell they were exactly the same as the original owner’s work.
The post had a publishing time, but there was no clue about whose works they were, as if someone just casually posted them.
And nothing about the post’s Tower Master could be traced.
Back then, real-name registration wasn’t required, the account hadn’t logged in for many years, and it wasn’t even bound to a cell number...
The time issue is what completely nailed the original owner.
Chuzheng watched for a while, found nothing particularly useful, and exited directly. She of course believed in her own body unconditionally, otherwise, it wouldn’t have been her turn.
But how did Yu Shi do it?
-
The original owner had a good habit of backing up, keeping a copy on the computer, a manuscript, and a copy on a USB drive.
In her USB drive, there were all her works from the beginning to now.
Chuzheng leaned back in her chair, looked through everything one by one, then compared them with her memories.
When it first exploded, the works were basically copied with no change and no signature.
But later on, there were alterations with Yu Shi’s personal style mixed in.
The exposed works were mostly the original owner’s recent works.
Did Yu Shi reincarnate ten years ago?
Or does Yu Shi have the ability to alter the past?
Whichever it is, this Yu Shi is definitely not a simple character.
"Knock knock..."
Chuzheng looked toward the doorway.
"Xiao Chu?"
The voice from before sounded again.
With the original owner’s memories, she knew the person outside was the original owner’s mother.
After being dismissed, the original owner stayed home except for investigating Yu Shi.
But with nothing progressing from Yu Shi’s side, the original owner once doubted if she was sick.
She locked herself in her room, not eating or drinking for days.
"No response yet?" another man’s voice asked, seemingly the original owner’s father.
"Nothing yet..."
"What should we do? Is something wrong with her?"
"Probably not..."
"I can’t stand it, I’ll break in and see." Father Yuk couldn’t sit still and intended to break the door down.
However, as he was about to do it, the door opened.
A pale-faced girl stood inside, looking at them with no expression.
"Xiao Chu..." Mother Yuk called out painfully: "Don’t do anything foolish, Dad and Mom are still here."
They didn’t understand matters of work, but knew their daughter had been through a lot recently.
But besides caring for her daily, they could do nothing.
They also believed their daughter wouldn’t be what people online said, however, those pieces of evidence...
"I’m okay." Chuzheng said: "Is there anything to eat?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Hearing Chuzheng ask for food, Mother Yuk was overjoyed: "Mom will bring it right away."
Father Yuk’s eyes quietly reddened too: "Dad will get you some water, you sit tight."
Mother Yuk quickly brought over breakfast, Chuzheng was quite hungry. Her body hadn’t eaten for two days, yet, her eating style was calm and composed, with an unusual elegance.
The original owner naturally had high self-control, so neither Father nor Mother Yuk suspected anything.
But seeing their daughter’s cold demeanor, they remained uneasy.
Now, their focus was on her health, lacking time to ponder deeply.
Chuzheng finished her meal and drink, slightly leaned back in her chair, comfortably rubbed her stomach. Noticing Father and Mother Yuk watching her, she quickly withdrew her hand.
Chuzheng looked at them, earnestly and seriously said: "I’m okay now; you don’t have to worry."
Father and Mother Yuk exchanged glances.
Does she look okay?
-
Over the next two days, Chuzheng ate regularly, wasn’t sloppy, regained her complexion, and looked incredibly spirited.
However, Father and Mother Yuk were not at ease.
They felt their daughter seemed very different...
Days passed without a smile from her and a chilling barrier seemed to isolate them.
"Recently, Xiao Chu seems so strange..." Mother Yuk said worriedly.
Previously, suppressed cries would sometimes come from her room; now it stayed utterly quiet.
Father Yuk was also anxious: "I’ll talk with her during dinner."
"Alright."
Mother Yuk went to prepare dinner full of concern.
The Yuk Family was punctual with meals, Chuzheng had figured that out, so she appeared at mealtime.
Mother Yuk was serving food, smiled upon seeing her, her voice gentle: "Xiao Chu, have a seat."
The dinner table was filled with silence, broken only by the clinking of dishes and utensils.
"Ahem..." Father Yuk cleared his throat: "Xiao Chu, don’t dwell too much on what’s online; what do those people know? Mom and Dad believe in you."
"Mm."
Chuzheng’s response was flat. Father Yuk glanced at his wife, continued: "Don’t hold anything in. Tell Mom and Dad, and we’ll figure it out together."
"I’m fine."
"Xiao Chu, don’t bottle things up; we need to talk." Mother Yuk couldn’t hold back anymore.
Despite seeming calmer than her crying tantrums, it made her worry even more.
"I’m really okay, don’t worry." She’s been eating, drinking, sleeping well, where’s the problem?
Chuzheng was calm and rational, indeed showing no signs of trouble.
Yet it pushed Father and Mother Yuk to doubt themselves.
Were they not attentive enough to their daughter? No way, their daughter wasn’t so indifferent, right?
But this person...was definitely their daughter.
After Chuzheng returned to her room, the couple sat silently for a long time before Father Yuk rubbed his face: "Could it be she’s traumatized?"
Mother Yuk: "..."
She seemed traumatized days ago, but now she’s more composed than anyone, not at all like someone stressed...
Finally, with an uneasy look, she said: "You know in those TV shows, before someone does something foolish, they tend to behave strangely lately; we must keep watch over her."
Father Yuk ultimately found his wife’s advice reasonable, nodding silently.
