(Let's assume Yun Qing and Xie Rang live in a later era, without leaving Yun Qing. Just treat it as a parallel world and don't get hung up on the details.)
"This kid is really something. No matter how important the research project is, it's not as important as you..."
When Yun Qing opened her eyes, all she saw was a snow-white ceiling, and a faint smell of disinfectant lingered in the air. She was somewhat dazed and didn't immediately realize where she was.
Her teacher, a gentle female professor, was nagging her incessantly, clearly showing her concern.
It felt like she was having a very long dream. Yun Qing stared blankly at her teacher, still a little dazed.
"What's wrong?" Teacher Yan waved her hand in front of her face, unable to suppress a laugh. "Yun Qing, don't you even recognize me?"
"No, teacher."
Yun Qing lowered her eyes, the last memory clinging to the moment she fainted in her dormitory, followed by a very long dream…
No, that wasn't a dream! It really happened!
"That's good. If I hadn't needed to talk to you today and couldn't reach you on the phone, I would have gone to your dorm and not know when I would have found you unconscious. Honestly, why did you stay up so late? You should have rested properly during this time. It's not too late to continue working on your project after you've recovered."
Teacher Yan is over fifty years old this year. She wears black-rimmed glasses and has fine lines at the corners of her eyes, but her smile is very kind. She doesn't have many students, but they are all outstanding talents who are pleasing to the eye. She became acquainted with Yun Qing when she first enrolled in school. Although she is called a teacher, she is actually more like an elder to her.
"Thank you, teacher. I understand."
Yun Qing wasn't quite sure what the current situation was, so she decided to just wait and see.
She hadn't seen her teacher for a long time, and her voice choked up a little: "Don't worry, teacher, I'll get some rest."
"Hmm." Teacher Yan raised her hand and patted her shoulder. "You're so young, don't always act so mature. Just take a break and relax."
Yunqing started school early and skipped grades. She was later admitted to Peking University through a special admission program and was the youngest among that batch of students. When Teacher Yan chose her as a student, in addition to considering her overall academic performance, she also felt sorry for her.
Teacher Yan was very busy, so after exchanging a few words with Yun Qing, she left.
Yun Qing tried calling out to the system in her mind, but unsurprisingly, she received no response. She lowered her eyes and pondered for a long time, but still couldn't help worrying about Xie Rang's situation.
Da Xi's memory ends with them falling asleep together. When she wakes up, she is back at the point in time when she transmigrated. She doesn't know if Xie Rang came with her. If he didn't, she'll be worried sick. If he did, it's still a problem...
Yun Qing rubbed her forehead, surprisingly not worried about whether she could go back, because her intuition told her that she probably could.
She rested well in the hospital for a few days, and only breathed a sigh of relief when the doctor said she could be discharged.
Teacher Yan gave her a long vacation. After gaining more experience, Yunqing cherished her life and realized there was no need to push herself so hard. So she went to her dormitory to get her key and prepared to go home to visit.
She owned an apartment near Kyoto University, but later applied for a dormitory room for temporary rest so that it would be more convenient for her to conduct research with her professor.
Emotionally, she still prefers to go back to her own house to take a look, after all, it also records the traces of her growth.
Before she traveled back in time, she was busy for a long time and hadn't been back for a while. Although the house was spacious and bright, it still seemed a bit cold and lonely.
Yun Qing stared blankly for a long time, her voice slightly unsteady: "Habit is a terrible thing."
She used to find Xie Rang's clingy and persistent nature annoying, but now that they've separated, she suddenly feels out of sorts.
Yun Qing is an honest person. She admits from the bottom of her heart that she likes Xie Rang's hugs and kisses.
She practically grew up alongside Xie Rang and had long been accustomed to having someone watching over her at all times. This kind of affection might be considered a bit obsessive in terms of emotional psychology, but when it was directed at Yun Qing, she indulged him.
In any case, things between them can be discussed and negotiated.
"Never mind, I'll stop thinking about it now."
Since she couldn't go back for the time being, Yun Qing's further thoughts were futile. She clearly understood how important timing was and could only wait patiently.
...
A few more days passed.
Perhaps worried that Yunqing would be bored at home, Teacher Yan called and invited her to dinner.
"...Perfect timing! I have a nephew who got into Peking University this year to study history. Get to know him; he'll be your junior in the future."
Yunqing has a somewhat indifferent personality, but she actually has quite a few friends. However, in recent years, everyone has been busy with work or pursuing further studies, so they have had less time to get together. Suddenly, Yunqing has a lot of free time, so she can only spend it alone.
Teacher Yan took this into consideration and wanted to help her relax.
Since she hadn't figured out what she was thinking about yet, Yunqing agreed: "Okay, thank you, teacher."
The matter was settled. Yun Qing wasn't interested in getting to know any junior students; it was just a kind gesture from the teacher, and she wouldn't refuse it. Having another friend wouldn't hurt.
The dinner party was in the evening, so Yunqing quickly tidied herself up and went out.
After thinking about it, I took out a book related to my major, wrapped it up, and prepared to give it to my teacher's nephew as a gift.
Seventeen or eighteen years old is the time when a girl is most looking forward to university life. She has a good relationship with her teachers and pays special attention to details in these matters.
Upon arrival, a waiter led her to a private room. When the door opened, the first person Yunqing noticed was Teacher Yan, followed by the boy with his back to her.
"Come here, Yunqing, let me introduce you. This is my nephew, Xie Rang."
"Come on, Xiao Rang, this is Senior Yun Qing that I told you about..."
What?
For a moment, Yun Qing doubted that she had heard correctly. She quickly looked up at the boy she had overlooked.
The boy turned around. Although his appearance was still somewhat immature, it was a familiar look to her. She knew that in a few years, that face would mature and become the handsome look she knew, looking like a majestic emperor, but in reality, even his heart was black.
Definitely a hypocrite.
But now, the boy's eyes were crystal clear, showing no sign of familiarity with her. He smiled obediently and said, "Hello, senior, my name is Xie Rang."
Don't you have any memories?
Yun Qing narrowed her eyes suspiciously, and under the teacher's gaze, handed him the prepared gift, saying, "Hello, my name is Yun Qing."
