nXia Zhi was dumbfounded.

nHe had no idea Xinghe was so proficient at programming…

nHe had an urge to ask her where did her sudden proficiency come from but her absolute concentration in her work deterred him from doing so. He didn't want to break her focus.

nHe stood quietly by her bedside watching her work. He found it difficult to calm down…

n45 minutes!

nXinghe used less than one hour to finish writing the program.

nShe kneaded her hands, let out a long sigh, and turned to meet Xia Zhi's astonished eyes.

nXinghe passed him the laptop.

"I think it's done. Give it a try and see there are any mistakes. If it's usable, send it to your senior and ask for the pay.

"

n

"Huh? O… okay…

" Xia Zhi accepted his laptop dumbly, staring at her with a pair of vacant eyes. He was waiting for an explanation.

nXinghe was too distressed to notice his strange behavior.

nHer eyes were tired from continuous exposure to the screen's harsh glare and it added to her already mounting headache…

nXinghe slumped back down her bed, shut her eyes, and… fell asleep!

nXia Zhi had to use every ounce of his self-discipline to not shake his sister violently awake.

nSis, please explain what's happening before you retreat to your dreams! Where did you learn such impressive programming skills‽

nHe was bursting at the seams with questions, but he dared not disturb her sleep.

nThe only thing he could do was to suppress his curiosity and wait patiently.

nThe two hours it took for Xinghe to wake up was torture for Xia Zhi.

nThe moment she opened her eyes, she realized she was staring into Xia Zhi's inquisitive, unblinking eyes.

nA startled Xinghe said,

"What are you looking at?

"

nXia Zhi replied,

"Sis, do you want to eat some mangoes? I'll go buy you some.

"

n

"Mangoes?

" Xinghe frowned.

n

"Yup, it's your favorite fruit, right? Do you want some?

" Xia Zhi said enthusiastically.

nXinghe pulled her upper body upright using the bedframe as support and stared at Xia Zhi quizzically.

nXia Zhi stared back at her anxiously, waiting for an answer.

nXinghe narrowed her eyes.

"Xia Zhi, what are you planning? You know I'm allergic to mangoes.

"

nXia Zhi lurched forward to grab her hands, his eyes red with tears.

"So, it is you, Sis! Do you remember saving me from drowning when I was five years old?

"

n

"Are you high? We didn't know each other when you were five.

"

n

"Sis, it is you!

" Xia Zhi wailed with joy.

"I thought you died and your body was taken over by a new consciousness like how it's normally portrayed in reincarnation-themed web novels. You have no idea how worried I've been for the past two hours.

"

nXinghe stared at him curiously,

"What are you talking about?

"

n

"You know, your soul died and your body became host to another person's soul… that sort of thing.

"

n

"You fear I am no longer the same Xia Xinghe?

"

nXia Zhi nodded as he broke into a smile.

"Can you blame me? You suddenly become so good at programming after a car accident. Isn't that how the plot for these novels go? I was so afraid that you've become someone else. Thankfully, you're still the original!

"

nXinghe was rendered speechless.

nThen again, she couldn't really fault Xia Zhi for thinking that way, she had never shown him her programming talent.
