It Seems I’m Not The Only One Who Reincarnated

However, if Shi Hai wasn’t reincarnated, how could his advanced gaming skills be explained?

Could it be one of those tropes where memories slowly come back…?

Would Shi Hai eventually remember the times they spent together?

“And there’s no way I could remember those memories either.”

“…”

His second denial shattered Jian Sichun’s last hope.

“If it were lost memories, maybe something could trigger them to return, but how could someone recall memories they’ve never had?”

To Shi Hai, those were “nonexistent memories.”

And if they don’t exist, they can’t be remembered.

“I can’t exactly retrieve memories from the future.”

“That’s true…”

Jian Sichun felt both disappointment and relief.

Because she realized that if Shi Hai did remember everything, he would also remember her death…

And even if he did remember, he would never regret it.

He would definitely do the same thing again.

He would risk his life to protect the person most important to him.

That’s just how decisive he was.

Even if given another chance, he wouldn’t change his actions.

In that case… it was better if he didn’t remember.

Jian Sichun placed her hand on Shi Hai’s chest and silently vowed in her heart.

(This time… I’ll protect you.)

Shi Hai, meanwhile, was still reflecting on the strange sensation he had just experienced.

That mysterious feeling left him wanting more.

“It seems like it was just some kind of muscle memory… Maybe I was influenced by you.”

“Influenced by me?”

“Yeah, considering how bizarre the whole reborn to the past thing is, who knows if there are other phenomena associated with it?”

Shi Hai said, half-jokingly.

“Maybe I picked up on your brainwaves, which triggered some special skills or something.”

Jian Sichun laughed at his words.

“Pfft, what is that…? You think it’s all about ‘tuning into the right frequency’?”

“Bold hypothesis, careful verification.”

Shi Hai was now curious about one thing.

Was it his innate talent for fighting games, or had he really been influenced by Jian Sichun?

He needed to test this out in other areas.

“So, do you remember what other skills I was good at in the future?”

“Hmm?”

“Maybe I could tap into some talents in other fields too.”

“Ah…”

Jian Sichun remembered how Shi Hai had learned many new skills just to help her.

Writing scripts, filming, recording, video editing, creating special effects, 3D modeling, crafting, sewing, makeup…

These were all things Shi Hai had learned after quitting his job and dedicating himself to supporting Jian Sichun’s career as an online content creator.

Remembering this, Jian Sichun grew excited, bouncing with enthusiasm.

“There are! There are so many—! You were amazing at so many things, Shi Hai! And you did all of them so well!”

“Hmm, let’s try them all out then. Even if I can’t get everything back, recovering just a bit could help you out, right?”

“Huh… You’re doing this to help me?”

“Of course. Since we’re best friends, and you’re staying at my place for a while, I must’ve helped you a lot before, right? So, there must be some skills I can use to help you…”

Seeing Jian Sichun in a daze, Shi Hai asked.

“What’s wrong? Don’t you need it?”

Jian Sichun quickly snapped out of it, her voice rising several octaves as she responded.

“Ah! Yes! I need it!”

Whether Shi Hai could actually remember anything or not didn’t matter.

Just the thought of trying things out with him made her incredibly happy.

The springtime smile on her face blossomed.

And just like that, her resolve to keep her distance from Shi Hai was forgotten.
