When she came to the supermarket, Yang Xihe didn't forget to buy glutinous rice and salt. After that, she headed to the fresh food area, ready to pick up chicken meat.
Despite knowing the real reason why Yang Xuerou wanted her to buy these things, she still decided to play along and pretend to be oblivious to all this farce. Later on, she would set up a prank and let her silly cousin learn her lesson. Thinking of this, Yang Xihe couldn't help but giggle softly.
Yang Xihe glanced around as she walked and found that there weren't many people that visited this section at this time of the day. Apart from her, there were only a couple who were also picking up chicken meat.
The husband looked like a typical middle-aged man without any distinguishable traits whatsoever, but she found that the wife was quite strange. The woman wore a mask and walked rather slowly, almost stumbling. She looked like a sick person.
Considering the unfriendly weather, it wasn't strange that some people might fall sick. In fact, she and Xuerou were also the same. But why did the man still bring his sick wife to shop?
Well, it was just a fleeting curiosity for Yang Xihe. After all, old habits die hard. She still occasionally observed people unknowingly, like when she was still young. She immediately withdrew her gaze and walked around them with the basket, intending to go to the other side.
Out of the blue, the woman staggered back and bumped into Yang Xihe. Caught off guard, Yang Xihe didn't have the time to react and fell to the ground while the basket flipped upside down, the plastic container was tossed to the side, and because it wasn't properly tied, the glutinous rice inside was spilling out on the ground.
Despite looking frail and scrawny, the woman's body was actually quite heavy, Yang Xihe thought when she was pressed to the ground. She hit the ground elbow first, making her body jolt with pain and briefly numb. She gave her elbows a quick look and saw that they were already bruised and bleeding.
However, she didn't have much time to take care of this because the woman on top of her had suddenly convulsed all over her body.
A hoarse and rapid gasping sounded in the woman's throat. She tore her mask off, and her mouth opened and closed rapidly, as though she was a fish leaping from the water to the land. Her face was pallid, and her lips were purple. Her current appearance was similar to someone who had just drowned in water.
Yang Xihe held her breath and helped smooth the patient's back.
The woman's husband hurriedly came over to lift her body, apologized to Yang Xihe in a perfunctory tone, and turned her head to his wife, scolding her.
"I already said that I'm alone enough. Why do you still insist on going with me?! It's better to stay home when you're sick! See, you just made a fool of yourself and embarrassed me!"
Yang Xihe frowned. She didn't have a good impression of this man who scolded his own wife in public. But she didn't say anything, stood up and helped to support the woman's body.
Suddenly, a bizarre thing happened to her.
When her hand accidentally brushed against the man's hand, her mind went blank for a second. After regaining her senses, she instantly fell into a panic.
What the hell happened to me?!
Her surroundings suddenly changed, and what was freakier was that she seemed to be in the man's body. The strangeness didn't stop there. Not only did she have the perspective of the husband, but she also had a third-person perspective at the same time.
It was akin to watching a movie you starred in, but you could experience anything as if you were inside the movie.
The experience was so absurd, even for someone who suffered from mild schizophrenia like Yang Xihe.
Is my hallucination acting up again?
She didn't know what to do. This was the first time something like this happened to her.
Before she could figure out anything, the scene had started to unfold.

The sick wife suddenly jumped on her and bit her fiercely like a mad dog. The plastic bags in her hands fell off; the chicken meat they just brought was rolling on the ground.
At this moment of life and death, Yang Xihe felt like she had suddenly obtained a superpower. She could capture the details of the woman's face in hyper-precision.
The woman's face was twisted and contorted, and the veins all across her face bulged out, on the verge of exploding, making her pale face turn blue and purple. Her saliva spat out all over her mouth, making her look more hideous.
A pair of bloodshot eyes stared at her intensely. They literally nearly popped out of their sockets.
Some might say that staring into someone's eyes was like staring into someone's soul.
Yang Xihe might not necessarily have believed in any feudal superstition, but she believed in the existence of souls.
But when she stared back at those dull, blank grey eyes, she couldn't sense any. She was just like a mindless, out-of-control puppet.
The moment the crazy woman bit on the man's throat, Yang Xihe vividly felt a series of teeth plunge at her skin, penetrating deeper into her flesh, tearing a big chunk of her flesh when the woman pulled her head back.
The pain was so intense that she almost lost consciousness.
All of a sudden, the scenery changed again. She was back in her own body and, in front of her, the couple was still alive and kicking, as if nothing had happened before.
Yang Xihe couldn't tell the truth from the fake for a while. She stared at the couple in horror, subconsciously stepping back and pushing the wife away.
"What are you doing?!" The husband caught his wife and scolded Yang Xihe angrily, "My wife just accidentally bumped into you, why are you trying to hurt my wife? How can you be so vicious at such a young age?!"
Yang Xihe didn't seem to respond; the man's loud voice was just like unintelligible gibberish in her ear.
Her face turned a little bit pale. The feeling of being bitten just now was too real. She somehow still tasted the excruciating pain in her neck, making her muscles twitch as if she was really hurt.
"I... I'm sorry... I seemed to see her biting me just now... no, she bit you, not me..." Yang Xihe murmured in a low voice. She looked confused and lost.
"You're crazy!" The husband glanced at Yang Xihe suspiciously and cursed, "What bad luck! I met with crazy people this time!"
After spitting several words of profanity, he carried his wife and scurried away.
Yang Xihe was still frozen on the spot and then pinched her brows, feeling a little bit dizzy. Could it be that her illness suddenly worsened?
If that's the case, the water stains I saw wasn't necessarily real either.
Yang Xihe's heart suddenly turned gloomy.
She raised her head and gazed at the sky; the dark cloud loomed above the city, shrouding the sunshine and casting the shadow below.
What a shitty day.
