Cheng Jinshi: I called my nemesis "Mom."
Blurb 1
A distant relative came to stay with Cheng Jinshi's family. Her parents said this relative was pretty good at fortune-telling.
The distant relative claimed to be the second cousin of the daughter of the younger brother of the daughter of the older sister of the grandmother of Cheng Jinshi's father. In short, she was Auntie Cousin.
Cheng Jinshi asked her, "Could you repeat everything you just said?"
Auntie Cousin stumbled over her words, then changed the subject. "Jinshi, Auntie Cousin has read your fortune. You're in for a bad year."
Cheng Jinshi: "I believe in science, not superstition."
She thought this Auntie Cousin, who had appeared out of nowhere, was just a con artist.
Cheng Jinshi didn't take her words seriously at all. The next day, she and her nemesis Jiang Xieyi crashed their cars and were both in an accident.
When she woke up, the first person she saw wasn't either of her parents, but her nemesis, Jiang Xieyi.
Cheng Jinshi thought Auntie Cousin had been right. She wanted to ask Jiang Xieyi if she'd come to settle the score.
But Jiang Xieyi, who was always cold and stern with her, unexpectedly looked worried and reached out to touch her face.
Jiang Xieyi: "Sweetheart, are you all right?"
Cheng Jinshi froze. The words "Are you okay?" were already on the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed them.
She sensed something was wrong. Her hands were tiny. She turned her head and saw a mirror on the bedside table. The reflection showed a child.
She knew this child. It was Jiang Xieyi's daughter, called...
Jiang Xieyi: "Jinjin?"
Her name was Jiang Jin.

After accidentally becoming her nemesis's daughter, Cheng Jinshi was so worried she lost a few more strands of hair. She thought it over and decided to come clean to Jiang Xieyi.
She worked up her courage and went to find Jiang Xieyi, then realized how much taller Jiang Xieyi was. She climbed onto a chair.
Cheng Jinshi: "I'm not your daughter. I'm Cheng Jinshi."
Jiang Xieyi: "Oh, I know."
Cheng Jinshi was shocked. Cheng Jinshi was utterly confused. Cheng Jinshi asked, "How are you so calm?"
Jiang Xieyi: "You have too many tells. The most important one is that Jinjin is better behaved than you."
Cheng Jinshi, convinced she was a great actress: "Hmph. I was much better behaved than your Jinjin when I was little. I was an angel baby."
Cheng Jinshi sat down to eat, sipping her milk as she wondered how to get back into her own body.
Jiang Xieyi: "Come with me to film a variety show next week."
Cheng Jinshi: "Seriously? I'm like this. How am I supposed to film with you?"
Jiang Xieyi: "Jinjin and I were supposed to go, but now that you've become Jinjin, you have to go instead."
Cheng Jinshi sensed trouble. Cheng Jinshi tried to run. Cheng Jinshi was caught.
Jiang Xieyi: "Don't worry, it's just a simple parenting reality show."
Cheng Jinshi: "..."
Auntie Cousin really is a miracle worker. I've become my nemesis's daughter, and now I have to film a parenting show with her. I have to call Jiang Xieyi "Mom" in front of the whole audience. Sure enough, I'm in for a bad year.
