Chapter 131: The CEO's Dark Moonlight (42)
Wen Wan was unaware of what was happening. In her sleep, she felt something staring at her, which made her feel uneasy. She then shrank into the blanket, but felt suffocated and shrank out again.
Then she felt something crawling on her face. Wen Wan was terrified. She opened her eyes groggily and saw a dark shadow in the darkness. Wen Wan screamed and quickly covered herself with the blanket.
"Holy crap—"
"System, come out quickly! What's that outside?" He even shouted it out, but the system quickly censored the last sentence; it couldn't expose itself.
[Host, calm down. You can untie the blanket and take a look.]
"I'm scared."
Take a look, trust me, I would never cheat you.
Wen Wan firmly stated, "I don't believe it."
What else could be out in the middle of the night besides ghosts?
There were even things pulling at her blanket, making faint laughter. Wen Wan was terrified and almost suffocated.
“A-Yuan”.
Wen Yan: "..."
"Damn it, this ghost is even imitating Gu Sheng's voice and calling me. (System) You need to get rid of this ghost thing right now, I'm scared to death."
system:【……】
Can't the host even take a look?
This isn't the supernatural world, so where would a ghost come from?
It simply used its dream-entering ability on its host without telling the host beforehand. After all, the host curses it every day, so it's not too much for it to play a little prank on the host, is it?
"Ah Yuan, don't be afraid, I am Gu Sheng."
Wen Yan: "..."
"You bastard, why do I feel like this isn't a nightmare anymore?"
System: [It wasn't a dream to begin with.]
“A-Yuan”.
Wen Wan quietly opened a crack in the door and saw a figure that looked extremely familiar. "Gu Sheng?"
Gu Sheng: "It's me, Gu Sheng."
Wen Yan: "..."
!!
She abruptly threw back the covers, and relying on her fairly good eyesight, she reached for her phone, turned it on, and saw Gu Sheng's face. "Gu Sheng? What brings you here?"
"Wait, what are you doing here?!"
Wen Wan sat up abruptly, utterly shocked. How could Gu Sheng be here? How did Gu Sheng know her?
Wen Wan was held tightly in Gu Sheng's arms, almost unable to breathe.
“Ah Yuan, you’re back.”
Wen Yan: "..."
The system explained to her what it had done: "I put you in the male lead's dream, so he dreamt of you, and he already knows your identity, as you said yourself. This system simply blocked some sensitive terms related to this system and the transmigration novel."
"Why?"
The system sighed helplessly. It didn't know why it had received this order; it was simply following the rules.
[Because our bookstore is very humane; we don't want to see young couples heartbroken and separated.]
The system wasn't telling the truth, and Wen Wan didn't know what the system and the Transmigration Bureau's purpose were. But for Wen Wan, now was not the time to investigate, since she was facing something more important: Gu Sheng had come to find her.
Wen Wan had a lot to say, but she didn't know what to say.
After all, five years had passed, not five days, and she had also changed her body and her face.
"You know I am A-Yuan?"
Gu Sheng: "I know."
Gu Sheng continued, "When you left, I saw you. I thought I was dreaming, but I really heard your voice and saw your fleeting shadow."
Wen Yan: "..."
Is this really not a paranormal event?
So her initial discovery wasn't a delusion; Gu Sheng did indeed see her in the ambulance.
Does the male lead have the ability to see ghosts? This is too outrageous!
"System, don't you need to explain this to me?"
System: [Host, don't worry about it. It's all just bugs anyway, and the Transmigrating Bureau won't be able to find them anyway.]
Wen Wan: "..." Are you all this unreliable? Such a big thing has been going on for five years, and the system hasn't mentioned it at all.
“You didn’t die. I’ve been waiting for you.” What Gu Sheng didn’t say was that he had been reborn. So if it were someone else, they might think it was a hallucination caused by grief, but he didn’t think so. He believed that A-Yuan might be from another world and approached him because of some mission.
As long as he is alive, he will wait for it even if it takes him his whole life.
Clinging to that last, almost supernatural thought, Gu Sheng lived on, fearing that if he died, what would happen if A-Yuan came back and couldn't find him?
Fortunately, he waited until he got his wish.
When he saw that face in his dream, he knew he had finally found her; it was his A-Yuan, the real A-Yuan.
Wen Wan hugged Gu Sheng tightly, "Yes, I'm back, little one."
Wen Wan couldn't help but burst into tears, and Gu Sheng's eyes were red. He had waited for too long, so long that every day felt like living on the border between heaven and hell. The two were reunited after a long separation, as if they wanted to embed the other into their souls.
The system watched the task progress bar rise sharply.
One is reborn, and the other, who died five years ago, returns. The two lovers will eventually reunite. The plot of this world has nothing to do with the original storyline, but it satisfies the readers on another level.
Even the dumbest system would have noticed the problem.
However, it is unaware of the facts for the time being and can only refrain from telling the host for the time being.
Gu Sheng told Wen Wan everything that had happened in the past five years. Wen Wan then learned that Grandma Gu had passed away a year ago, but she passed away peacefully. Apart from thinking about her, she had no other regrets. Two years ago, Liu's parents adopted a daughter and slowly emerged from the shadow of losing their daughter. Liu Meiyun went to prison for murder, but was released due to mental problems. She was then imprisoned by Gu Sheng in a mental hospital, and Gu Sheng also learned about Liu Meiyun's rebirth. Now she is living a life worse than death.
As for Wen Wan, there's not much to say, since she's spent five years in the system space, doing nothing but cursing the system on a daily basis.
Wen Wan couldn't tell Gu Sheng about the system.
Fortunately, Gu Sheng didn't insist. He already felt like he was dreaming that A-Yuan could come back.
"Will he leave again?" Gu Sheng asked softly, his panic and fear making Wen Wan feel heartache. She knew she wouldn't die and would eventually return, but Gu Sheng didn't know that. So, Wen Wan couldn't even imagine how she had waited for him for the past five years.
Wen Wan shook her head. "No, it won't happen again."
"good."
...
All night long, Gu Sheng lay on the bed holding Wen Wan, doing nothing but holding her close to his chest. He didn't dare close his eyes all night until day broke and the person in his arms was still sleeping peacefully. Only then did he realize that everything that happened last night was not a dream, but real.
His beloved A-Yuan has truly returned.
