After dinner, the Ming couple went home to rest and adjust to the jet lag.

Before the two of them left, they made an appointment with Lu Zhaozhao to have Lu Zhaozhao come to their house for lunch the next day at noon.

Lu Zhaozhao agreed.

Mom and Dad left, but Mingjue didn't leave yet and was still standing among the Lu family.

Lu Shuang crossed his arms and looked at Ming Jue, nudging him with his elbow: "Future brother-in-law, your uncle and aunt just came back today, why don't you go and see them off?"

"We are here to discuss the engagement with Zhao Zhao. They don't live far away, so there's no need to send them off."

It's just a small road away, there's no need to be so pretentious.

He took Mingjue's hand and looked at Mr. and Mrs. Lu: "Teacher, Master, I'm going to take him to my house for half an hour to discuss the engagement. Do you mind?"

Mother Lu glanced at him and said, "Now you are pretending to be polite. When you were secretly stealing my daughter behind my back, I didn't see you being so honest."

"Teacher, when you pursue someone, you have to do it quietly. What if you think I'm too old?" He chatted with Lu's father and mother for a while, then took Lu Zhaozhao home.

Lu Zhaozhao came in to discuss the engagement with him, after all, the date was the day after tomorrow.

But who would have known that this old man actually brought her back and acted like a hooligan in broad daylight.

She was pressed on the sofa and kissed passionately, her hands moving around on her body dishonestly, almost making Lu Zhaozhao lose control.

Lu Zhaozhao didn't dare to stay any longer, so he quickly adjusted his breathing and expression and went home.

Mother Lu was still waiting for her and asked them how the discussion went.

Lu Zhaozhao felt guilty: ...

It would be strange if we could work out everything.

She could only bite the bullet and say, "Brother Ming said that we should go to the private restaurant we went to last time. Should we have a meal together as two families or invite all relatives and friends? It's up to you."

"Your father just mentioned this. We think that for the engagement, we should just invite the more important relatives from both sides, and also invite your Qin family's parents, to witness your happiness, and then the marriage can be almost over."

Lu Zhaozhao nodded. She had no objection.

After dealing with her mother, she returned to her room, leaned against the door, took a breath, and touched her cheek.

It was so scary.

At noon the next day, she arrived at the villa of Ming's parents.

At this moment, the old house was very busy. Even Wang Nanyi cooked in person to please his future daughter-in-law.

Lu Zhaozhao wanted to come in to help, but Wang Nanyi stopped her: "Good child, if you want to cook in the future, you can do whatever you want at your and your husband's house. I won't stop you, but in your parents-in-law's territory, you are not qualified to cook. You can only be responsible for eating, understand."

Lu Zhaozhao had always thought that getting along between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was a problem, but unexpectedly, Wang Nanyiyi was really easy to get along with.

"Go out for a walk. If that doesn't work, ask your boyfriend to watch a movie with you for half an hour at most, and then we'll eat."

Lu Zhaozhao felt that this was inappropriate, but was still driven out of the kitchen by Wang Nanyiyi.

Mingjue put his arm around her shoulders and said with a smile, "You don't know how grateful my parents are to you. Because of you, their troubled son is finally single. Okay, don't worry, my parents won't find any fault. Come on, I'll take you around."

Lu Zhaozhao felt relaxed and followed Ming Jue around the Ming family.

The two came to the movie room and planned to watch a movie, but found that the projector could not connect to the Internet.

He asked Lu Zhaozhao to sit down and went upstairs to change the projector.

Lu Zhaozhao sat on the sofa, picked up a piece of pear with a fork and put it into his mouth.

While she was eating, she suddenly heard a muffled woman's voice, not loud but clear: "Mom? Mom!"

Lu Zhaozhao sat up straighter and the voice disappeared.

Are you hallucinating?

She looked around, didn't move, and went back to chewing the pear in her mouth.

But the voice appeared again: "Are you not here? Why haven't you come yet, Wang Jue? Aren't you home?"

Lu Zhaozhao stopped again and listened carefully. He was sure he heard a woman's voice.

And...Wang Jue, isn't that Ming Jue?

She stood up in confusion. The sound seemed to come from the wall.

She walked over, took a closer look, and found a dark crack there.

She hesitated for a moment, raised her hand and pushed gently.

The hidden seam turned out to be a sliding door embedded in the wall.

Behind the door was a small room that looked exactly like this movie room.

There is also a door on the opposite wall of the room.

Hearing the sound of a woman humming a tune from behind the door, she frowned, walked over, and carefully opened the door.

Suddenly, another living room exactly like the Ming family's living room appeared before his eyes.

The living room is bright and clean, and you can tell at first glance that someone lives there.

On the sofa in the living room, a woman was sitting with her legs crossed, eating pastries on the coffee table.

Hearing the door open, the woman on the sofa turned around.

The moment he saw the other person's face clearly, Lu Zhaozhao was startled and subconsciously took a step back, his face full of fear and surprise: "Ms. Ming...Ming?"

Is she dreaming?

She actually saw Mingzhu wearing a Hong Kong-style suit popular in the 80s in the living room behind the secret door of Mingjue's movie room?

Mingzhu was also extremely surprised that there were people other than the Ming family in this living room.

In order to hide the secret of Mingzhu's sudden appearance, the Ming family bought the villa next door a few years ago, rebuilt it, and opened a secret door so that the couple could come over to rest every night and spend time with their daughter and grandchildren.

But only the Ming family members are allowed to enter and exit here. The door of the movie room is usually locked, and the servants never walk around.

Mingzhu looked at the girl's face. She was very familiar with it.

In addition, she looked incredulous as she called him Miss Ming. He hesitated for a moment, stood up, and walked over: "Zhao Zhao? Are you... Qin Zhao Zhao?"

Lu Zhaozhao seemed to have lost all the energy. She exhaled, "I'm Zhaozhao, I'm Qin Zhaozhao, Miss Ming, why are you here?"

Mingzhu's eyes twitched as she figured something out. She immediately asked her, "When you didn't listen to me and jumped into the moat, did you suddenly open your eyes and find that you were not dead, but were in the body of a girl who looked exactly like you and had the same name and surname as you?"

Qin Zhaozhao nodded without hiding anything: "I was injured at the time, and some memories that had nothing to do with me flooded into my mind. I realized that I entered the body of a girl named Qin Zhaozhao forty years later.

She was attacked on the head and was injured, so she must be... no longer alive, so my soul came in."

"Then I think we should be the same. This is my home, Mingjue is my biological brother, and I used to be a doctor. Because I was doing surgeries non-stop in the hospital, I had a sudden death. I entered Mingzhu's body from forty years ago and survived in her place."

"The two of us really have some different fate," Mingzhu said, and then she thought of something and looked at Qin Zhaozhao in confusion: "But... why are you here?"

As soon as Mingzhu finished speaking, hurried footsteps were heard from the direction of the movie room, and Mingjue ran in with a worried look on his face.
