Yin Chen wanted to buy cat food quickly and go home, but he received a call from his classmate halfway there, and then he remembered that he had a gathering with his colleagues today.
He wasn't familiar with these people, but Yin Chen liked lively atmospheres, so he went when someone invited him. Besides, if he remembered correctly, this was when he started to connect with the protagonist.
After having dinner, they went to a bar. The energetic music got Yin Chen really into it, and he swayed to the rhythm. His colleagues laughed at him for looking unusually energetic today, and he just smiled and made a few comments.
As night fell, Yin Chen finally saw the female lead, who worked at the bar, appear. When a group of drunk customers were bothering her, he suddenly called a waiter. The female lead quickly got away and came over to take his order. Out of gratitude, she even paid for a bottle of drinks for their entire table out of her own pocket.
The female protagonist is actually a student working part-time to have enough time to study during the week, so she works many jobs on weekends. Although this bar is legitimate, drunk customers occasionally cause trouble. However, no one dares to really escalate the situation, and the female protagonist has carefully chosen her work location.
He casually reminded the female lead that she should leave early to avoid being blocked by the guests. Yin Chen smiled brightly and without any gloom, raising his glass with his colleagues and chugging from the bottle, looking very happy.
When it was almost time, Yin Chen said goodbye to them and headed back.
The moment Yin Chen stood up, he felt a sudden heaviness and pain in his head. Some fragmented images could finally be pieced together with the images that kept popping up inexplicably to form a slightly coherent scene.
The artificial sea stretched as far as the eye could see, and a magnificent silver dragon swayed slowly in the water. He stood in a high-rise building by the sea, leaning against the window, watching that figure intently.
After drinking, Yin Chen's headache flared up again. Feeling dizzy, he staggered a few steps before regaining his balance after bumping into something.
This discomfort was only momentary. Looking down at his feet, Yin Chen saw the previously empty ground. But as he bumped into the air, which felt like a human body, he caught a glimpse of a human figure.
He quickly looked up, only to find a familiar face completely obscured.
Hmm... perhaps it wasn't human. He saw the attire, which didn't resemble modern clothing, the long, fluffy, white tail behind the other person, and the fluffy animal ear peeking out from under the hood amidst the other person's silver hair.
...He felt the same intense heartbeat he had experienced in the previous world when he saw Teacher Long. He felt his soul boiling over when he saw that dragon in those inexplicably appearing memories, his soul screaming with the urge to hug and kiss it tightly.
Long Xun, Long Xun.
Boss... Teacher Long?
Is it a coincidence? Then what is this feeling of familiarity? Is it the cycle of reincarnation, and he has accumulated good karma so that he can see the person he loved but could not have in his previous life again?
Then we really have to thank God for his favor... The person I just caught a glimpse of looked so familiar with their ears and tail.
Yin Chen couldn't help but laugh.
"Yin Chen, are you drunk? Should we call a car to take you home?" a colleague asked worriedly.
Yin Chen smiled and waved as he walked out, saying, "No need, I just suddenly felt dizzy when I stood up. I'm leaving now, you guys have fun."
Outside the bar, Yin Chen didn't walk straight ahead, but instead turned a corner and went into a small alley.
There's a small door in this alley, through which bar employees who get off work too late leave. The alley is open on both sides, with an inconspicuous side path in the middle. The female protagonist sometimes takes that side path when she gets off work late.
Yin Chen walked leisurely, with a polite yet somewhat shy smile on his face, as well-behaved and harmless as a student.
When he reached the fork in the road, he saw the male protagonist covered in injuries.
In the original story, the female lead, as if kicked in the head by a donkey, takes the male lead home to heal his wounds, and then they fall in love, eventually becoming a couple. However, in the original story, Yin Chen, who had once helped the female lead and is handsome and kind, is quite dependent on her. The male lead, a gangster, sends someone to warn Yin Chen to stay away…
Whether the male lead had malicious intent or not is unknown, because at that time Yin Chen was involved in the internal strife of the male lead's gang and ended up as cannon fodder.
Yin Chen was here to change his fate as a cannon fodder male supporting character, and he remembered this mission very clearly.
Upon seeing the seriously injured male lead, Yin Chen did something different from the female lead—he called the police.
Yin Chen didn't touch the male lead at all. He squatted on the ground and waited for a while. After hearing the sound of police and ambulances, he got up with a smile and continued walking towards the end of the fork in the road.
Yes, he was just a passerby who saw someone injured and kindly called the police.
When the male protagonist on the ground groggily opened his eyes, he saw a handsome man with an angelic smile get up in front of him, turn around and leave without hesitation.
Yin Chen walked home, not worried about the male lead at all.
Compared to the ruthless and unruly protagonist of the previous world, the protagonist of this world is a person who always repays kindness and is very sentimental. If he hadn't been born into the underworld and had no other choice, his overly upright personality would probably have made him a policeman.
Therefore, compared to the ending in the previous world where the male protagonist was killed by Yin Chen, Yin Chen wanted to subtly guide the male protagonist of this world so that he could get what he wanted and live in the light.
—They may both be named He Mubai, but they are different people.
However, there is another important thing now.
Yin Chen took out his keys and opened the door to his home. In the clean and tidy apartment, the cat he had taken in walked silently from the bedroom to the living room. Its white, fluffy tail swayed slightly, and with its four paws together, the white cat sat upright, its chin slightly raised and its eyes indifferent.
