Transmigration as a Female Supporting Role Who Attempted Suicide

Chapter 82

"Indeed, you used to be inseparable from your two phones before, didn't you?" He Yi looked at the bewildered expression on the woman's face and asked curiously, "That's right, how come I haven't seen you with your other phone lately?"

Ji Nian paused briefly, then laughed it off and pretended to lament, "The other phone... I think it went missing when we were moving house..."

"What?" He Yi's eyes widened in disbelief. "Your phone is a valuable item, and you lost it?"

"Well, you know how I recently had a near-death experience. When I came back, my mind was a bit hazy," Ji Nian made one excuse after another.

He Yi suddenly recalled the woman's foolish act not long ago. Seeing her cheerful demeanor now, it was hard to believe she was someone who would attempt suicide over love.

"As for the other phone, it might still be in the villa you rented before, but after so long, it's probably impossible to find it now," He Yi said regretfully.

"Should we contact the landlord and ask?" Ji Nian tentatively suggested.

"Forget it. The landlord won't have time for that, and it's been so long that agents, cleaning ladies, and property management have all been in and out of the villa."

He Yi pondered for a moment and felt the chances of retrieving it were slim. "When my phone is fixed, I'll help you call and ask."

"Alright," Ji Nian felt uneasy. Did the original owner have another phone? Could there be some secret?

"By the way, is there anything on your phone?" He Yi asked.

Ji Nian felt awkward and shook her head. "Probably... nothing, I guess..."

He Yi nodded in agreement. "You didn't have any work or a social life before, so there probably won't be any scandals."

"Heh heh," Ji Nian felt puzzled. If the original owner had two phones, did she have some secret?

Due to a cracked phone screen, He Yi had to leave in a hurry to get it fixed.

Ji Nian looked around the luxurious house, which should have put her in a good mood, but she couldn't stop thinking about the original owner's affairs.

It was strange that in all this time, none of the original owner's family members had contacted her. Why?

Pondering this, she immediately took out her ID card and examined the information carefully. The address listed was a street in a small county.

Before she could process this, an overwhelming wave of pain caused Ji Nian to collapse. She clutched her chest as the original owner's consciousness became more intense, and the despair from the depths of her heart consumed her entire mind.

Ji Nian struggled to stand, leaning against the wall. This reaction felt different, the first time she had ever felt like she couldn't endure it. Her entire body felt like it was being torn apart.

Ji Nian pounded her chest, her strong survival instinct prompting her to go to the hospital. She stumbled into the elevator and leaned against the wall, her mind buzzing incessantly.

She vaguely heard the elevator "ding" before everything went black. Ji Nian felt like she had crashed into someone and lost consciousness.

At the hospital—

Pei Yuchen, dressed in an impeccably tailored suit, sat expressionless at the bedside, gazing at the pale woman lost in thought.

Suddenly recalling what the doctor had said earlier, he stared at the woman's wrist, the gruesome scar causing him to frown.

Ji Nian gradually regained consciousness, feeling an unusual heaviness in her body. She opened her eyes groggily and looked around in a daze until her gaze fell upon a certain person, immediately sobering her!

"Dr. Pei?" Ji Nian asked hoarsely, shocked. What happened? Why was the antagonist here?

Pei Yuchen smiled politely. "I didn't expect to see you again in such a way."

Ji Nian remembered passing out in the elevator, so waking up in the hospital made sense. But...

"Are you the doctor in charge of treating me, Dr. Pei?" Ji Nian asked, bewildered.

Pei Yuchen nodded in affirmation. "That's a reasonable explanation, but... I'm not a doctor anymore."

"Ah?" Ji Nian was even more puzzled.

"Two hours ago, I was waiting for the elevator. When the doors opened, a woman suddenly crashed into me and passed out," Pei Yuchen said calmly. "I thought someone was trying to scam me."

"Heh heh," Ji Nian felt awkward. She struggled to sit up but felt powerless.

Pei Yuchen noticed and slowly stood, gently helping her up and arranging pillows behind her back to make her more comfortable.

Ji Nian stared at the antagonist's actions, almost fooled by his gentle side if she hadn't read the original novel.

"I don't have Miss Shen's number," Pei Yuchen poured her a glass of warm water and handed it to her with a smile. "I called Zhan, but he didn't answer, so I could only wait here for you to wake up."

"Thank you," Ji Nian took the water, realizing she was extremely thirsty, and drank half the glass before speaking. "I won't forget Dr. Pei's lifesaving grace."

Pei Yuchen laughed. "How will you repay me?"

Ji Nian paused, confused. Repay? She was just being polite...

She looked perplexed. "It seems Dr. Pei lacks for nothing..."

Pei Yuchen pondered and agreed with a smile. "Then let this favor remain an outstanding debt for now."

Ji Nian blinked her big eyes and nodded obediently. "Okay."

"The doctor said your fainting was a symptom of excessive blood loss, leading to insufficient blood supply in your body," Pei Yuchen met her gaze as he spoke.

If only it were that simple. She fainted because the original owner's consciousness had impacted her.

Ji Nian sighed lightly, unsure what the original owner was still obsessing over. She was already dead, yet she still tormented the one left to clean up the mess.

"Why did you attempt suicide?" Pei Yuchen asked with a hint of icy coldness in his smile, clearly displeased.

Ji Nian froze and looked at him awkwardly. "Heh heh, I was probably just... young and foolish..."

"I didn't take Miss Ji for that kind of person," Pei Yuchen smiled.

Of course she wasn't that kind of person! Ji Nian thought. There were thousands of good men out there. Even if heartbroken, one shouldn't harm oneself.

Moreover, how painful must it have been? Recalling the bathtub full of blood when she first transmigrated and the gruesome wound, she wouldn't have been able to do it herself. The original owner must have been determined to die to go that far.
