From the beginning, he had no interest in debuting as part of a group, or rather, this person just wasn’t good at teamwork. When Li Jing was about to leave, Qi Shejiang called out to him, “Uncle Jing, I don’t want to act.” Li Jing raised an eyebrow, “Why do you keep changing your mind? What do you want to do now?” Qi Shejiang blinked and said something to him. After hearing it, Li Jing fell into a daze, staring at him for three seconds, “… Xiao Jiang, are you still mad at us?” Qi Shejiang replied naturally, “No. By the way, Uncle Jing, the light in my room is broken. Do you know how to fix it?” After Li Jing left, Qi Shejiang brewed himself a pot of tea. Something strange had happened to him in these past few days. Ten days ago, he was also called Qi Shejiang, but he didn’t live here; instead, he lived eighty years ago in Huaxia as a folk artist making a living by performing crosstalk. One day, he got caught in the rain while out without proper gear and returned home sick with typhoid fever, which ultimately led to his death. He thought he would be reborn in the underworld, but when he opened his eyes again, he found himself eighty years later in Huaxia, becoming the current “Qi Shejiang.” Qi Shejiang’s mind was filled with several incomplete memories, allowing him to roughly understand the body he now inhabited.
He had been adapting to this bizarre turn of events, the new time and space, the new identity, and to suddenly losing everything he once had. No matter how strange it was, for someone who had died once, gaining new life was the most precious thing. Moreover, he didn’t know why, although he and this “Qi Shejiang” had no similarities, he felt a deep fondness for everything about “Qi Shejiang.”
He used to have an appearance that was just decent and handsome, while this “Qi Shejiang” was stunningly beautiful; he came from a family of traditional opera performers. He first learned opera and didn’t switch to crosstalk until he couldn’t master it. Even their personalities were somewhat at odds—he relied on his verbal skills to make a living, while “Qi Shejiang” was not good with words.
