My Evil Genius Wife

"Ah…wait….Do you also have….some other names as well? Should I call you with that one? Hmm?" Jia Fei asked Xu Nuan as she took a sip from her drink while having eye contact with her. 

Xu Nuan, who was drinking her coffee, paused in her actions upon hearing Jia Fei's meaningful words. Today, there is something different about Jia Fei. 

Her attitude, words, and that….mysterious gaze. 

It was already strange for Jia Fei to call her yesterday and tell her to come over to the cafe. On top of that, she is asking such weird questions - making it hard for the other person to understand the meaning behind them. 

Xu Nuan didn't break eye contact with Jia Fei as she put down her glass on the table and wiped her mouth with a tissue before speaking, " Other names? Do I have some other names as well? Well, I didn't know that." She chuckled.

Jia Fei's lips twitched to see Xu Nuan being so calm and composed. And that's what annoyed her the most. Her indifferent expressions - uselessly chill attitude. 

How can she be so calm after hearing her words? 

" Are you sure you don't know about your other names? Huh?" Jia Fei asked again, gritting through her teeth. 

"No! I don't." Xu Nuan said firmly. Although she wasn't showing her emotions on her face, in truth, her hands were trembling under the table. 

For some reason, she could feel where this whole conversation was going. Her sixth sense was telling her that Jia Fei is not simply typing to pick a fight with her, as she usually does. 

It's different. It's more like a psychological battle. 

The battle of Truth.

While Jia Fei and Xu Nuan were battling with their eyes, Luo Dan was watching their drama from the side. " What's happening here? Huh? Why do I feel left out from the whole conversation?" She asked in frustration. 

Nothing was going on, but still, there is something that she doesn't know. The way Jia Fei was acting and the way Xu Nuan was staring at Jia Fei, the whole tension was too much for her to bear. 

Can't they simply talk about it in words so that she could also understand the matter, rather than battling with their eyes? 

" You want to know about it?" Jia Fei asked while still not taking her eyes off Xu Nuan. She wanted to see her reaction. 

Luo Dan glanced at Xu Nuan and turned to Jia Fei who was sitting next to her, " Yes. Is there something going on between you two? You guys are acting so strange." 

Jia Fei's lips curled up in a smirk as she chuckled in disbelief before she started speaking, " Do you remember that Xu Nuan once told us that she is allergic to mushrooms and feels nauseous just by looking at them?"

" Yes. What about it?" Luo Dan was confused. It was so random. 

" Jiang Yue was also allergic to mushrooms. She always felt nauseated just by looking at them and wouldn't eat anything if there is any mushroom dish on the table. No! She couldn't. Do you remember that as well?" 

Luo Dan's frown deepened upon hearing Jia Fei's words. What is she trying to say here? How do these two things relate in any way? 

However, what bothered her was Xu Nuan's quietness. Jia Fei was spouting nonsense and Xu Nuan wasn't even saying a word. That's so strange because both of them always fight over small matters. 

How come she is so quiet today? 

Luo Dan frowned. " What are you trying to say? Huh? What does it have to do with Xu Nuan? Do you think only Jiang Yue had allergies to mushrooms? Many people are allergic to mushrooms, what does it have to do with Xu Nuan?" 

Jia Fei's lips curled up in a smirk as she said, " Do you remember Yuhan, the guy I met at the hotel? He is a close friend of Xu Nuan and has known her since they were young."

" He told me that a year ago, Xu Nuan got into an accident and even went into a coma for some days. Do you know what's even more shocking?"

" That accident occurred on the very day when Jiang Yue got into an accident at the set and….passed away. Don't you think it's too coincidental to be true? Mushroom allergy, same-day accident. " Jia Fei's voice became hoarse while talking about the accident. 

Everything happened in front of their eyes. They saw her falling from the height, the bloody-wounded sight of her lying on the cold floor still haunts her in her sleep. 

"Jia Fei…" Luo Dan reached out and patted Jia Fei's shoulder who was on the verge of crying. Her eyes were watery and her voice was shaking in the fear of losing her control. 

" It must be a coincidence. There must be many people who must have gotten into some accident on the same day, just like how so many people share the same birthdays. You're thinking too much about this matter. " She sighed in helplessness. 

She knows that Jia Fei has still not accepted Jiang Yue's death but she can't simply connect it to every single event and make a story about it. 

" It can be a coincidence. But did you know that Xu Nuan likes to eat mushrooms before the accident? Don't you think it's strange for someone to suddenly develop an allergy that they never had after an accident?" Jia Fei asked. 

" Of course, it can happen. Many people develop new allergies after an accident. What are you trying to prove with your words?" Luo Dan asked in exasperation. Jia Fei was making her worry about her but she was also getting stressed out from seeing Xu Nuan's solemn expressions. 

How come she is not saying anything to oppose Jia Fei's illogical words? 

" Fine. I agree that they can develop new allergies. But can a person's personality suddenly change so much after an accident that even her family members get shocked by her attitude? I don't think it's possible unless…." Jia Fei trailed her words while staring at Xu Nuan who was now looking down at her hands, avoiding her gaze. 

" Unless….it's a different person." She said, making Xu Nuan look up at her.
