Chen Jingyi got what she wanted, and she completely forgot how those people treated her to the extent that it escaped her mind.
Because Tang Rao had scolded her, Wang Han was very swift in her actions the next day, fearing to neglect Chen Jingyi and be complained about by Chen Jingyi for neglect again.
It seemed that Chen Jingyi hadn't left a particularly good impression in Wang Han's heart. Wang Han's kindness toward Chen Jingyi remained mostly on the surface, unlike with other sisters, where genuine feelings occasionally emerged.
Regarding Wang Han's differential treatment, Chen Jingyi didn't feel anything much. Living together wasn't due to blood relations or anything; their only common trait was liking Tang Rao. Because she liked Tang Rao, enduring the women around him wasn't impossible.
"No matter what your purpose here is, we're all sisters from now on. If you need anything, just ask. If we can help, we will. However, as the elder among the sisters, I hope you can get along harmoniously and be accommodating to one another."
Wang Han was admonishing Chen Jingyi, letting her know her duties and not to scheme or disrupt the hard-earned peace among the sisters. But Chen Jingyi had never been a troublemaker; how she was on the Central Island, she remained on the North Island.
It was Wang Han who had changed. Tang Rao said she came from the East Island, was the daughter of the East Island Master, just not knowing which maid of the Madam was Wang Han.
Even if Chen Jingyi went to ask, Wang Han couldn't tell anything definitive since even she didn't know her past identity.
"I understand."
Excluding Sheng Xuan yesterday, who wasn't a woman by the Madam's side, she hadn't figured out the identities of the remaining women one by one. Naturally, she needed to get along well and be accommodating to those sisters.
"You can stay here, next to Xiao Xiao. The place isn't remote, and the environment is good. I heard from Tang Rao that someone will deliver something later. Just wait for a moment."
Wang Han was about to leave when Chen Jingyi quickly called her, making her stop.
"Wang Han, do you know Qin Se?"
Chen Jingyi couldn't calm her heart. If she knew who Qin Se was, then she certainly remembered her past life, saving Chen Jingyi from hitting many obstacles on her journey to find someone.
Chen Jingyi thought she would be disappointed; after asking, she kept looking into Wang Han's eyes. Hearing the words 'Qin Se,' Wang Han's eyes became dazed. If she dared to say she didn't know, Chen Jingyi would immediately uncover her secret.
"Why do you ask this?"
Wang Han cautiously questioned Chen Jingyi. Such a way of asking was safest when both sides didn't know each other's purposes.
"I am Qin Se."
Chen Jingyi confessed, stated her identity.
"How can you prove your identity?"
Wang Han's tone towards Chen Jingyi softened significantly.
"Madam bestowed the name back then. I have a cool temperament, so I was named Qin Se. You have a cold temperament, so you were named Han Bing. You are Han Bing, right?"
Wang Han, Han Bing.
Plus with Wang Han's demeanor, Chen Jingyi speculated on this.
"Sister Qin Se?"
The name bestowed by Madam was something from many years ago, only the sisters knew the meaning of each other's names. Wang Han confirmed Qin Se's identity and immediately embraced Chen Jingyi. This long-lost hug finally brought them back together.
"Han Bing, it really is you. I knew I'd guess right!"
Qin Se joyfully looked at Han Bing. When the two met again, there was mutual admiration and cherishing, feelings that couldn't be put into a few words.
"Han Bing, how did you retrieve your memory? If I'm not mistaken, your memories were all taken away, with no chance of recovery unless all five sisters reunited."
Qin Se was lucky enough to keep her memory, but what about her, what was it for Han Bing?
"My memory was sent back by the Miss."
Wang Han reminisced about those days with Miss, deeply missing them.
"In order to process the memory delivered by the Miss, I slept for a hundred years straight. It wasn't until Tang Rao found me that I completely absorbed that memory."
Miss was Tang Qingqing, the only Miss in the Tang Family's main branch. Chen Jingyi didn't expect that Tang Lei and Tang Qingqing, who supposedly wouldn't interfere in the reincarnation punishment, were silently guiding things for the better. Tang Qingqing even cheated a bit by returning all their memories.
"It's just the two of us; where are the others?"
Chen Jingyi was more eager than anyone to find the remaining people.
But Wang Han remained calmest among them. She kept this secret deep in her heart, helping Tang Rao properly manage the women around him, keeping them in line. That initial trust Tang Rao had in Wang Han should stem from subconscious trust.
"In the Kao Shan Sect, there's only Bei Lin on the North Island. The Central Island is unknown, and the South Island too."
Could Bei Lin be like Wang Han, having known the secret long ago? The person from the South or Central Island remains a mystery.
"Why don't we go ask Bei Lin?"
Chen Jingyi generously invited, and naturally, Wang Han had no objections.
When they arrived, Bei Lin was in her newly built laboratory, teaching Zhang Kexin how to dispel Gu Worms. Seeing Chen Jingyi and Wang Han arrive together, Zhang Kexin nearly lost control over the Gu Worms, almost stirring up some trouble.
"Sister Wang Han, how did you two end up together?"
They had all agreed not to let Chen Jingyi in, and Wang Han had consented. How did Wang Han and Chen Jingyi end up together so quickly?
"Ke Xin, we'd like to speak privately with Bei Lin, is that okay?"
Wang Han didn't want to hide from Zhang Kexin, but unfortunately, this was a secret among the five of them, best kept from outsiders.
"Oh, alright, Sister Bei Lin, I'll head back then."
Zhang Kexin had no interest in prying into others' private matters. She quickly tidied up the mess in the laboratory and soon left the space to the three of them.
"You're looking for me?"
Bei Lin was still playing with Gu Worms in her hands. She'd been playing with them since childhood, for many years. Only Wang Han took Bei Lin's playing with Gu Worms as a coincidence, not linking her to another person.
"Bei Lin, do you know Han Bing and Qin Se?"
She did, of course she did.
These two destined fools found each other, and upon mentioning their names, Bei Lin readily admitted it.
"Yes, I know them."
Just that much was said.
"Sister Chen Jingyi is Qin Se; I am Han Bing. Your name hasn't changed, and your personality hasn't either, still fond of Gu Worms as always."
Wang Han and Bei Lin didn't exchange many conversations within the Kao Shan Sect. It wasn't until now they found a common topic to connect on.
"I thought I was the only one who remembered. Didn't expect you all actually knew?"
Exclamations of surprise came from the women's mouths.
