Since they were not two souls but the same person, there had never actually been a little girl crying, "Let me out."

Even earlier, when Li Wuxian and Qin Yi had been lovey-dovey, that disgusted voice in her heart—"Get lost, you stinking man"—had also been her own divided self. There had been no Yao Guang soul shouting within her.
The clearest proof was that when their souls had faced each other in the dream, Yao Guang's soul had never appeared. There had only ever been one soul playing two roles.
