Dressed as an abandoned daughter of a wealthy family, she relies on metaphysics to become a god

"I'm sorry, I have something extremely important to do right now. If you want to meet with me, it may take some time." Chu Yao politely rejected her.

But Chu Yao didn't expect that the woman would directly reveal a bombshell.

"I know you are investigating someone, Ross Lee. I have a good relationship with him, and I am willing to use his intelligence as my first reward, as long as you meet with me today, and you can choose the place. Don't worry, my time is also limited, and I promise that our conversation will not exceed two hours."

The woman spoke in a steady tone, as if she was chatting about family matters.

Since the news involved Ross Lee, Chu Yao began to consider whether or not to meet the woman.

She hadn't secured her flight yet, so it wasn't a waste to spare two hours.

Besides, if the woman is Ross Lee's friend, she might be able to get some important information.

She said that this information was only the first reward, which meant that there would be other forms of rewards later.

Now there are only two final questions left. How did the woman know that they were investigating Ross Lee?

The second question was, should Chu Yao believe the woman’s words? What if she only knew that they were investigating Ross Lee, but she was not actually familiar with Ross Lee?

Probably guessing what Chu Yao was hesitating about, the woman continued, "Miss Chu must understand one thing, there is no airtight wall in the world. Things that you think are very confidential have actually been spread to other people's ears a long time ago. Of course, I can first tell you some information about Ross Lee, and you can verify whether it is true."

"it is good."

"Rose Lee...is not from this world." The woman paused, "Or rather, he thinks he is from another world and was just reborn in his own 'homologue'."

This sentence was enough to make Chu Yao believe in women.

Chu Yao thought about it and chose a coffee shop that was not too far from the Special Intelligence Bureau. It would only take about ten minutes to walk there.

She remembered that this cafe was not crowded on normal days, but there would still be some office workers coming to eat at noon.

But at this moment, the room was empty. Presumably, the woman had arrived at the cafe before her, and in order to ensure the privacy of their conversation, she cleared the room.

Chu Yao couldn't help but start to guess the woman's identity. From her accent, she didn't sound like someone who lived in the capital. Her Mandarin was not very good and she even stumbled a little.

However, if she lived in another place, why should she risk not being able to meet someone and rush to the imperial capital before Chu Yao agreed to her request?

Chu Yao is indeed somewhat famous in the imperial capital, but she does not think that this fame is enough to make others travel thousands of miles to the imperial capital.

The burly bodyguard standing at the door opened the door for Chu Yao, and the waiter from the coffee shop came over to greet him.

"You are Miss Chu, right? There is a lady waiting for you in the private room upstairs. I will take you upstairs."

Following the waiter, Chu Yao went up to the second floor. There were also two bodyguards outside the door of the box.

What kind of person does he have to be accompanied by seven or eight bodyguards when traveling?

Pushing open the door, a quiet and gentle woman was seen sitting in the seat. She was well-maintained and looked only about thirty-five or thirty-six years old.

But Chu Yao knew that she must be at least fifty years old this year.

The woman took off her sunglasses and was a little stunned for a moment. She murmured to herself, "Exactly the same, yes, it's you!"

Chu Yao also did not expect that the person who tried every means to find him for an interview was actually Chen Peiwen!

An hour ago, she was still in Yuan Jiaxiang's memory, looking for the key to solving the case with her cousin.

But when she returned to reality, five or six years had passed.

Chen Peiwen is naturally a few years older than before, but she pays great attention to her appearance. Regular medical beauty treatments and hair dyeing make her look little changed.

But why did she say "exactly the same"?

Chen Peiwen took a sip of coffee, her mood eased a little, and she said, "Ms. Chu, I want to explain my situation to you first. In recent years, I often have some...precognitive dreams, and before having such dreams, I will have some special reactions."

She almost never dreamed before and her sleep quality was very good, but starting five years ago, she would dream from time to time.

The scenes in the dream were so real, as if she had experienced them herself.

Sometimes, Chen Peiwen dreams about negotiating business with others; sometimes, she dreams about her two children.

The strange thing is that everything she dreamed about would definitely happen in reality, but some would happen the next day, while others would take some time to happen.

At first, Chen Peiwen didn't take these dreams to heart, but she suddenly became interested and wanted to deliberately go against the development of the dream.

Her dream was about her ex-husband. The two had been fighting a divorce lawsuit for several years, which had exhausted their last bit of affection.

After the lawsuit was over, the two of them never contacted each other again. Although the children would go to see their father, the family of four would not appear in the same place.

In Chen Peiwen's dream, her ex-husband called her and said he hoped she could do him a favor.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yu, I think we no longer have any relationship. Besides, I'm going to the mainland soon, so I'm afraid I don't have the time."

But after her ex-husband's repeated requests, she finally relented and agreed.

What he instructed was very simple. He just needed to ask Chen Peiwen to drive the car they had bought before to his current garage.

That car was also one of the many gifts he gave to Chen Peiwen. Chen Peiwen used to cherish the car very much, but later she gradually drove it less and less.

Chen Peiwen did as she was told. However, when she drove to her ex-husband's garage, she found that many people had already gathered there.

Those people were her ex-husband's sworn brothers. They were dressed very formally and held wine glasses in their hands, as if they were here to attend a banquet.

"Our eldest brother is really good at managing his wife. He has been divorced from Sister Chen for such a long time, but he can get Sister Chen to come from the mainland with just one phone call. It's not easy."

"I heard that this car is Sister Peiwen's favorite car. Are you really willing to give it up?"

"Sister Peiwen, you won't regret it, will you? I told you a long time ago that you shouldn't divorce Big Brother."

"That's right. Look at our new sister-in-law. Doesn't she have everything she wants?"

Chen Peiwen's face turned cold. She realized from what these people said that she had become a "gift" from her ex-husband to please his mistress.

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

The ex-husband hugged a young woman and walked in front of Chen Peiwen. He seemed a little embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, Peiwen, I don't want to embarrass you. But Jennifer is pregnant, and she wants a Maserati. That model is not available now, so I can only borrow it from you."

Although he said it was a loan, he had no intention of returning it to Chen Peiwen.

He waved his hand, and his secretary handed him a bank card. He said, "This money is enough for you to buy a new Maserati. By the way, today is my anniversary with her. Do you want to stay?"

"No need."

Chen Peiwen said this and left in a hurry.

When she woke up completely, she was still shaking with anger.

She knew that if she allowed her dream to come true in reality, she would die of shame.

So, when her ex-husband called, she simply blocked his number.

In order to borrow their token of love, the ex-husband did everything he could.

If they couldn't get through to Chen Peiwen on the phone, they would call their son, and if that didn't work, they would call her secretary or even other family members.

After Chen Peiwen knew what he was going to do, she was determined not to let him succeed.

Of course she could afford to wait; their anniversary would not be postponed, so her ex-husband had to give up.

"Then what?" Chu Yao asked with interest.

Chen Peiwen's expression did not reveal a trace of pleasure. Instead, she said with confusion and fear: "He... is dead."

In order to prevent her ex-husband from continuing to harass her, Chen Peiwen got drunk that day and slept until noon the next day.

When she woke up, her phone was ringing non-stop.

The most calls came from her son and the police. She hurriedly called back, only to be told that her ex-husband had died in a chain reaction.

The ex-husband did not get a marriage certificate with Jennifer, and had no other relatives. His two sons were both living out of town, so the police had no choice but to ask his ex-wife, Chen Peiwen, to claim the body.

According to the development of the dream, the ex-husband would drive Chen Peiwen's Maserati back to his residence that day.

Since Chen Peiwen did not "lend" him the car, he could only drive his own car.

However, even he himself did not expect that someone had tampered with the clutch of the car.

He was drunk and was being driven by one of his sworn brothers, with Jennifer also in the car.

When the car passed the track halfway up the mountain, there was a small layer of ice on the roadside because it was cold, but it was night and no one noticed.

By the time the driver discovered there was a problem with the clutch, it was too late.

The combination of downhill, icy surface and clutch loss of control caused my ex-husband's car to slide directly down and severely smashed the vehicle in front.

Four cars rear-ended each other in a chain reaction, killing the driver on the spot, and the ex-husband and Jennifer were thrown out of the car.

Unfortunately, outside there is a cliff several dozen meters high.

After recounting this painful experience, Chen Peiwen stirred the coffee in her cup with a stirring stick and said with mixed feelings: "From then on, no matter good or bad things happen, I will never go against my dream."

"So, you came to me because you want me to help you solve the precognitive dream?" Chu Yao asked.

"No, no!" She suddenly became excited, "I found you because, because you appeared in my dream!"

"I?"

Chu Yao was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, it was quite reasonable.

Chu Yao had originally planned to go to Hongyong County, so it was indeed possible that she would meet Chen Peiwen. So it was not surprising that Chen Peiwen would dream about her.

Chen Peiwen realized that she had lost her composure. She closed her eyes and mustered up the courage to say, "You may think I'm crazy, because... this time, I didn't dream about the future, but the past."

"The dream began when my cousin from my aunt's family disappeared..."

Chen Peiwen’s dream was actually the experience that Chu Yao had in Yuan Jiaxiang’s memory.

However, what Chen Peiwen dreamed of was not Yuan Jiaxiang, but Chu Yao himself.

Dreams are illogical. In the dream, Chen Peiwen did not have a cousin named Yuan Jiaxiang, but only a cousin whose name she could not remember and Yuan Jiahao.

"I dreamed that you said you wanted to go back to the Yuan family. Then when we went back, I woke up..." Chen Peiwen bit her lower lip.

After she woke up, she remembered that she had a high fever for the past few days, which might be related to this precognitive dream.

She quickly asked someone to draw the image of the girl in her dream. Coincidentally, one of her friends knew Chu Yao and recognized her at a glance. She also gave her Chu Yao's contact information.

Chen Peiwen had a hunch that since she dreamed of this girl, it meant that she could help her solve the mystery that had been bothering her for many years.

Chen Peiwen added: "If it is a precognitive dream, I won't be afraid of anything. But this happened in the past, I can't change it, and..."

The last time, reality and dreams were different, and more than a dozen people died.

Although Chen Peiwen did not think that her ex-husband's death was her fault, she still felt a little uneasy.

If she had known that so many people would die, she would rather be fooled by her ex-husband. At least those people could survive.

Chu Yao didn’t know why Chen Peiwen dreamed about these things, but she was sure that it had something to do with Yueyue.

Obviously, these are simulated data, but they were dreamed of by Chen Peiwen, the person involved. It seems that this function cannot be used much in the future.

Chu Yao pretended to think, and after a moment, she said to Chen Peiwen: "How about this, you tell me the difference between dreams and reality one by one, and I will find a way."

"Okay." Chen Peiwen nodded.

She is desperate now and is trying every possible means, but in fact, Chu Yao is not her first choice.

Chen Peiwen first went to find a Hong Kong wizard she was familiar with, but the wizard had no good solution and just told her to let things take their course.

However, she couldn't let go.

What happened to her ex-husband could be said to be an accident, but she knew the possible consequences. If she still let it go, wouldn’t she also become a murderer?

Chen Peiwen repeated it seriously, and Chu Yao pretended to write and draw on his notebook.

There was no way. She knew more details than Chen Peiwen, and she pretended to record it just to comfort Chen Peiwen.

Chu Yao circled the time period when they returned to Chen Peiwen's home to look for Qu Huiqiao's identity. The bifurcation between dreams and reality occurred here.

In reality, five years ago, in 2017, Chen Peiwen did not remember the episode from her childhood, and naturally she did not remember what happened afterwards.

The police initially identified Ding Jian as a suspect, but later suspected Yuan's father, which wasted time.

It was not until a month later when the murderer turned himself in that they learned the truth.

Or maybe that’s not the truth.

"I think, how about this. I'll accompany you back to Hongyong County, and then we'll go over what happened in those days again, so that your dream and reality can be reconciled. How about it?" Chu Yao asked.

Of course, she could also find out the truth and kill two birds with one stone.

Chen Peiwen showed a hesitant look. She said, "But, my dream was five years ago, not now."

“Does your dream have a distinct time?”

Hearing Chu Yao's question, Chen Peiwen shook her head.
