Quick Transmigration: The Villainess Is a Sweetheart-Chapter 98
Chapter 98
<System> dismissed Jiang Yan from Chen Jiang Yan's body, waiting to transport her to the next world. But suddenly, the System said, "The host has completed tasks multiple times, triggering the reward mechanism."
"What reward?" Jiang Yan asked with interest.
The System replied, "A world without tasks."
...
Jiang Yan opened her eyes again, finding herself in another world.
She was a small child, tightly embraced by a woman wearing a red dress. The woman was not particularly beautiful or graceful, but her face bore a blissful expression.
Jiang Yan stared blankly as the woman carried her along the road.
Lu Yuliang looked at her daughter and couldn't help but smile, "What's wrong? Don't you recognize your mom?"
Children often space out for no reason. Lu Yuliang thought nothing of it, saying, "We're almost there. We'll be at Grandma's house soon. Your dad is getting the car fixed and will join us shortly."
It turned out this family was visiting Lu Yuliang's parents for the New Year when their car brushed against another. On such a joyous occasion, nobody wanted to make a fuss, so they each contacted their insurance companies.
In a hurry, Lu Yuliang left Jiang's Father to handle the matter and took their daughter to her parents' home first.
Lu Yuliang's hometown was in the town center. After avoiding a group of children playing with firecrackers, Lu Yuliang's parents, younger brother, second paternal uncle, and third paternal uncle were already waiting at the door.
Before Lu Yuliang could greet them, her mother became anxious, "Why did you walk here? Aren't you tired? Where's the car? Where's your husband?"
Jiang Yan was passed to her Grandma as Lu Yuliang explained with a smile, "The car got sideswiped on the road, and we're waiting for the insurance people to come."
"Oh my! Why didn't you call earlier? Let's go take a look." Lu Yuliang's Grandpa, who had been smoking, suddenly became flustered, stubbing out his cigarette as he gathered everyone to go pick up Lu Yuliang's husband.
"Alright then," Lu Yuliang called out, "He might need help carrying all the New Year's goods."
Grandma led them inside, bouncing Jiang Yan along the way and trying to get her to talk.
But it took Jiang Yan several days to accept this reality. There was no wealthy family background or unfair treatment this time. She was simply a child from an ordinary family.
This kind of life could be truly blissful.
After drifting for several days, Jiang Yan became more lively and went to look at her reflection in the old mirror in the room. The mirror showed her soft, chubby baby face and dark grape-like eyes...
Just like when she was a child. Since learning that the System could manipulate the worlds, she had wondered if these worlds truly existed or if the System had fabricated simulations.
Because all the characters in the worlds seemed to share similarities, like her current appearance.
As Jiang Yan pondered in front of the mirror, Lu Yuliang's unmarried younger brother exclaimed loudly, "Sister, look! She's admiring herself in the mirror. Do you think she knows how cute she is?"
Jiang Yan covered her face. Did they think she couldn't understand them just because she was a child? What's wrong with looking in a mirror? These adults had no sense of boundaries.
Lu Yuliang and her husband had agreed to take turns spending New Year's with each other's families. Last year, they celebrated at her husband's parents' home, so this year they returned to Lu Yuliang's parents' place.
Jiang Yan was so adorable, soft, and obedient, with a chubby baby appearance that made anyone want to hold her.
Relying on her adult social skills - a sweet little mouth, combined with the mesmerizing effect of a human infant's appearance - Jiang Yan successfully won over everyone in the family.
Even the big cat liked to follow her around.
Lu Yuliang's bearded Grandpa, usually not very talkative, gently held his little granddaughter and took her to buy cakes.
When no one was around, the bearded Grandpa revealed his true nature, asking Jiang Yan in a slightly accented tone, "Yan Yan, who do you like better, Grandpa or Grandma?"
Jiang Yan hugged Grandpa's neck and said sweetly, "I like both of them." 𝗳r𝚎𝐞w𝐞𝚋𝗻𝗼vel.𝗰o𝐦
The bearded Grandpa was not satisfied. He puffed out his beard and asked again, "Then who does Yan Yan like the most?"
"Grandpa~" Jiang Yan replied sweetly. She could have many favorite people, but she didn't say.
Finally, the bearded Grandpa was satisfied. He bought many boxes of cakes and almost got scolded by Grandma and Lu Yuliang for it.
"She's about to lose her baby teeth. How can you let her eat so many sweets? Oh no! Any teeth that fall out will be your fault..."
Jiang Yan ignored Grandpa's predicament as she slowly scooped the cake with a spoon. Suddenly, someone arrived at the door.
