It Seems I’m Not The Only One Who Reincarnated

“I mean, although I’ve known you for a long time, it feels like I’m truly meeting you now.”

“…”

A strong sense of déjà vu hit Zhu Lingjie.

In her past life, after explaining her social anxiety to Shi Hai, he had the same expression and sentiment.

The words he said afterward, she would never forget.

Without thinking, she murmured.

“Let’s start over.”

“—!”

Shi Hai was just about to say that himself, surprised that Zhu Lingjie beat him to it.

Zhu Lingjie had changed so much.

The childhood friend he remembered always wore a cold, indifferent face, no matter how her appearance and body matured.

But now, she could call his name, talk to him normally, and even show a cute, shy side.

The change was astonishing.

It was as if she had grown up overnight.

Overnight…

Shi Hai closed his eyes, then opened them again, smiling.

“Yeah, let’s start over.”

At the same time, he considered the possibility.

The three girls he met yesterday—Tian Shui, Jian Sichun, and Zhu Lingjie…

They might all be reincarnated.

…

With their combined efforts, they spent an afternoon cleaning Zhu Lingjie’s house thoroughly, making it spotless and new.

“This should do it.”

“Thank you…”

“Friends help each other; it’s expected.”

“I’ll help with dinner tonight too.”

“That would be great. My mom’s cooking isn’t the best. Yesterday, it was thanks to Jian Sichun helping out; otherwise, I would’ve had to cook again.”

“Sichun can cook too…”

“Yeah, she did pretty well, though she’s a bit slow. She seems very capable but doesn’t cook often.”

“If I help, it will definitely be faster and better. I’m confident in my cooking skills…”

After all, Zhu Lingjie cooked daily for her beloved husband.

To ensure Shi Hai had the best meals without getting bored, Zhu Lingjie mastered a wide variety of dishes, reaching a level of proficiency that could easily land her a job at a high-end restaurant.

Her knife skills were particularly impressive.

However, her demeanor while holding a knife could be intimidating.

“Then I’ll take you up on that.”

“Okay, I’ll start preparing the ingredients…”

Though she seemed calm, Zhu Lingjie was internally fired up.

This was her first important performance, and she had to give it her all!

“Sure, get the money for the ingredients from my mom, or contact her before she gets off work to go shopping together.”

“Alright, I’ll contact Mom… and Sichun too…”

“I’ll tell her the cleaning is done, and she can move in with you.”

“Yes, yes.”

Shi Hai accepted the task of comforting Jian Sichun since he needed to talk to her anyway.

“I’ll head back now.”

“Wait, take this…”

Shi Hai turned back, seeing Zhu Lingjie holding out a key.

“This is… your house key?”

Zhu Lingjie nodded.

“Are you sure about this?”

“Yes.”

“Alright, I’ll take it. But make sure to lock your rooms.”

Taking the key, Shi Hai saw Zhu Lingjie blushing and teasingly asked.

“If I don’t lock the door… will you come in?”

Shi Hai blinked, then grinned.

Wow, she could joke now?

Her social anxiety recovery today was phenomenal.

Her psychologist would probably cry and bow to Shi Hai.

“I have a habit of knocking.”

“As expected… that’s so like you.”

Zhu Lingjie smiled.

She knew Shi Hai would say that.

But…

You may have a habit of knocking…

But I don’t.

Waking her husband up was a wife’s duty.

Even if they weren’t married yet, it was within the duties of a childhood friend, right?

Cooking for him, waking him up, going to school together…

Everything she missed as a childhood friend, she would make up for!
