After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

Chapter 560 Parallel Time and Space

She got up irritably, put on her clothes, and cursed Gu Xiu eight hundred times before appearing in the living room half an hour later, tidy and dressed.

At this time, Zhang's father and eldest brother had already gone to the company, leaving only Zhang's mother sitting in the living room flipping through a jewelry magazine.

Seeing Zhang Wanting coming down, she immediately called her over for breakfast. Wu Ma brought milk, fried eggs, toast, shrimp dumplings, crystal cakes and other breakfast foods to the table one by one. Zhang Wanting sat down immediately and finished them all at lightning speed.

Although she ate quickly, she still maintained an elegant posture. However, when Zhang's mother saw her like this, she frowned slightly and scolded her softly: "How many times has Mom told you that you should have etiquette when eating..."

"Mom, I know, I have something to do and I have to leave right away..."

"Why are you so anxious?"

Just as Mother Zhang finished speaking, she heard the housekeeper standing at the door announcing, "Madam, Miss, Mr. Gu is here!"

Mother Zhang's face suddenly showed a hint of teasing. She didn't scold Zhang Wanting, but winked at her and said with a smile, "Eat quickly, don't make anyone wait anxiously. Mr. Gu is a rare talent, you have to seize the opportunity!"

Zhang Wanting had just swallowed a mouthful of milk when she almost spit it out.

Her shoulders trembled, she coughed continuously, and then she patted her chest hard, and only then did she breathe slowly.

"Mom, don't talk nonsense. Mr. Gu has someone he likes..." Zhang Wanting said as she picked up her small bag and was about to rush out.

There are several private coffee shops in the villa area, which are specifically designed to serve the wealthy people in the villa area.

So whether in terms of decoration or quality, it is absolutely the ceiling level.

Ordinary people can't get in at all, it's extremely private.

And now, Zhang Wanting and Gu Xiu were just sitting in the coffee shop staring at each other.

Zhang Wanting took a sip of coffee and looked at the man in front of her with some annoyance. He obviously liked Aning, but he still wanted to flirt with her. Could it be that he was still planning to achieve his goal of arranging a marriage?

That won’t do. This is Aning’s man.

She must not be tainted in the slightest.

"Mr. Gu, what exactly did you ask me out for?" Zhang Wanting glanced at her watch. "You've been silent for ten minutes... If you don't say anything, I'm leaving."

Gu Xiu came back to his senses from his deep thoughts, raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Wanting calmly, opened his thin lips and asked directly: "Do you know Gu Mingzhe?"

Zhang Wanting's expression suddenly changed. She straightened her backrest somewhat inadvertently and looked out the window with a vague look. She touched her nose, as if she didn't know how to answer.

"I searched for a long time but couldn't find this person. Aning said that Gu Mingzhe was her ex..." Gu Xiu continued.

"Yes, that's definitely her ex..." Zhang Wanting quickly replied, her fingers rubbing unconsciously, her eyes a little anxious. "If you want to know who he is, just ask Aning. I don't know much about this."

She couldn't say that you couldn't find it because Gu Mingzhe was not from this era at all. That was too unbelievable.

"Last night, she was drunk and told me everything..."

Gu Xiu stared at Zhang Wanting's eyes closely. At this time, he was sure that Zhang Wanting did know Gu Mingzhe, and was very familiar with him.

"She mistook me for Gu Mingzhe and said she was Princess Zhaohua, and I was her consort..."

"She also asked me to help find someone named Lu Xingzhou. She said that was your lover..."

"You have traveled to a parallel time and space together."

Zhang Wanting's breath was suddenly held when she heard this.

Good man, Zhong Ning confessed everything when he was drunk.

Now that she has said it, it seems that I don’t need to hide it anymore.

After all, everyone already knows.

Zhang Wanting thought for a moment, then said, "You may not believe this, but Zhong Ning, Fang Ping, Lu Xingzhou, and I have definitely traveled together to the Great Yong Dynasty in a parallel universe."

"Zhong Ning was the princess brought back from the common people by the Emperor of Dayong. She was later canonized as Princess Zhaohua, and Gu Mingzhe was indeed her consort!"

"As for me, I traveled through time and became a noble lady in a marquis's mansion, and got to know Lu Xingzhou."

"Fang Ping relied on his reputation as the Immortal Poet to become Master Fang, admired by thousands of students."

"This may sound hard to believe, but it is indeed true. As for why there is no damage to the body after the time travel, or serious injuries and coma like in TV dramas."

"Perhaps it's because when we returned, we used the tools given by the Heavenly Dao to freeze time, so no one knows we've traveled through time, but the memory is hidden in our minds."

"That's why I became friends with Zhong Ning and even asked her to join my circle, because she had protected me there before."

Zhang Wanting's eyes reddened slightly as she spoke. "She truly is a very good person. Even though she's a princess and knows we all come from the same place, she's never, like other time-travel novel heroines, suppressed or massacred those who knew her origins."

"On the contrary, she has been protecting us."

"If it weren't for her, I would still be trapped in the Marquis' Mansion, suppressed by the mistress's rules and dogma, and even used as a pawn to form family marriages and protect family interests."

"If it weren't for her, Fang Ping wouldn't have been able to enter the imperial court so easily, quickly gain fame and fortune among scholars, and achieve both fame and fortune."

"If it weren't for her, Lu Xingzhou wouldn't have been discovered and reused, and he wouldn't have directly jumped to become the emperor's confidant just by wearing a white robe."

“If it weren’t for her, countless abducted children would still be trapped in dungeons or among dignitaries, suffering torture.”

"If it weren't for her, the people of Kyoto would have faced war when Prince Cheng rebelled."

"If it weren't for her, the imperial court's reforms wouldn't have progressed so smoothly. Many women from poor families wouldn't have had the opportunity to learn to read and write, and countless workers and ordinary people wouldn't have received the justice they deserved."

"She has done so many things, so many that I can't even count them all. Compared to Zhong Ning, I'm really unknown. I've only done a few small things under her."

Gu Xiu's guess was confirmed, but he still found it incredible. He was silent for a moment before asking, "Then who is Gu Mingzhe..."

"Gu Mingzhe was the most distinguished young master in the capital at the time. He was handsome and talented in both civil and military matters. Most importantly, he was deeply affectionate and gentle towards Zhong Ning, though occasionally he would get a little jealous. The two had an extremely close relationship."

"Ahem... well, he does look almost exactly like you..." Zhang Wanting paused, "but his personality is very different..."

(It will be finished at the end of the month. This time it’s real! This time it’s real! It’s really real!)
