While Ye Rong was talking to Yan Weixin, the System Task Special Office synchronized Yan Weixin's specific location to her.
After seeing the location, Ye Rong did not hang up the phone. She used the mermaid's blessing to comfort him while driving towards the location.
About ten minutes later, Ye Rong arrived at a park.
Because it was raining heavily and it was night, there was hardly anyone in the park at this time.
The street lights were dim. Ye Rong parked the car outside and walked inside with an umbrella.
Ye Rong jogged along the cobblestone path, and soon saw a person sitting on a park bench under a street lamp in front of him.
It was raining, but he seemed unaware of it. He stared into the distance expressionlessly, his eyes not knowing where to look.
"Wei Xin!" Ye Rong quickened her pace and came to him, slightly bent down and held the umbrella in her hand above his head. Then she saw that his lower lip was still bleeding, like a stray cat with a wound and wet hair but still ferocious.
Ye Rong's eyes were filled with worry, and she lowered her voice, "You're soaked, you'll catch a cold, come with me first."
Hearing this voice, Yan Weixin turned his head, and his gorgeous and sharp eyebrows softened a little. His tone was a little trance, and he smiled: "If I kill someone, will my sister ignore me anymore?"
Ye Rong was stunned for a moment, holding the umbrella for him, and said seriously: "I won't let you go this far. I promised to hold you, and I will definitely do it."
"Then...what if I have done it before that?" Yan Weixin knew what he had done. He remembered the smell of burnt skin, the struggles and distorted expressions of those people before they died, the fear of death and the fear of him.
He was born, but the girl was not.
The girl didn't even know the time and place of the Longyu earthquake, let alone what he had experienced.
Yan Weixin never thought that there was anything wrong with killing those people in his previous life, because they deserved to die, and even if they died a thousand times, it would not be enough to make him feel less hatred.
So every time he came, he just wanted to make them feel a life worse than death, experience more desperate pain, and return to them exactly what he had experienced.
This time, the appearance of the girl interrupted all his plans.
From the moment he fell in love with her, no, from the moment he saw her after he was born, he had unknowingly deviated from his original track.
Why wasn't he angry at the girl for disrupting his plans?
Yan Weixin had thought about this problem carefully, and later he came to a conclusion, that is, even if he successfully implemented his plan in the end, making them suffer and live a life worse than death, and then killed them again, things would not be completely over. Because as long as they died, he would experience deeper emptiness and pain.
Just like in his previous life he witnessed their deaths and finally ended his own life.
It was different from the pain of being tortured by drugs. It was a deeper emptiness, as if something was tearing at his soul and cutting a hole in his chest.
As he spent more time with the girl, the wound gradually became less painful, and the tearing force became imperceptible.
Even if he did nothing, he liked to stay by the girl's side, liked the way she looked at him with a smile and a caring look, saying that she approached him for a "purpose", but trying her best to save him and not let him choose a path with no way out, but because she knew what he had been through, she never asked him to let go, but stayed quietly by his side.
He enjoyed spending time with her.
Warm, peaceful and relaxed, he always thought, it would be great if she could stay with him forever.
Since she came to him for a "purpose", does that mean she will stay with him forever as long as the "purpose" is not achieved?
This thought came to his mind instantly when he realized that she came to him for a "purpose". He no longer resisted her approach, but still hid his despicable joy.
If you ask for something, you can control it.
He can catch it.
Can possess.
Perhaps it was due to the hidden evil thoughts in his heart that he had not yet realized, he couldn't help but ask: What would happen if I couldn't get his "like"?
She deftly dodged the question at the time.
This actually made him concerned.
In the bar, under the influence of alcohol, her thinking became slow, her cheeks flushed, her eyes were blurred, and she looked drunk and naive, but her will was unexpectedly firm and she didn't say a word.
But at the same time, from her silent attitude, he vaguely realized that it was not as simple as he thought. The idea that she would stay with him forever did not exist, because she had never promised to do so.
She said she would protect him, but she didn't mean it.
——"What if I always need my sister's protection?"
——"No need, you have a promising future."
It's not that she doesn't need him, but she knows she can't. She can't accompany him forever, but at the same time, she sincerely thinks that he has a promising future.
As he probed deeper and deeper, he realized that this inability was not an unwilling rejection. He deliberately provoked Gu Weisheng at the wrap-up banquet that day, partly out of childish possessiveness and partly because he wanted to find out something.
Gu Weisheng himself was not a magnanimous and tolerant man, but he was extremely calm in the face of his provocation. Thinking back to that night, it was he who was stimulated by his arrival.
Later, when the Longyu earthquake occurred, he realized that the girl was not a "sibling". She knew some things about the future and knew that the earthquake would happen, but she did not know the time and place of the Longyu earthquake. She herself could not know what he had done before he died, otherwise she would not have looked at him with such soft and smiling clear eyes.
I won't say anything about protecting him.
Yan Weixin had no doubt that if he crossed the line, the girl would not shield him or cover up for him. Just like she approached him in the beginning to get his "like", but after discovering his true identity, she would prioritize standing against him, stopping his revenge plan, and giving up getting his "like".
It was just that at that time he didn't know what she had really given up. It was not until he met Shen Yanqing that the other party's casual words made him suddenly realize what the girl had given up.
He wanted her to live, he liked her.
That day, Shen Yanqing also said: "Although we can't get her confirmation, there should be a time limit, and this time limit will not be too long."
But it's been two months and it still doesn't work.
He gradually felt anxious. What should he do?
Was it because of his base desire to monopolize her? Or was it because deep down he still longed for revenge and wanted her to disappear?
“………”No, he didn’t want her to disappear.
He could let Yan Kangan and Kong Mufu go, or he could give up revenge. He wanted her to be alive.
It turned out that what he was really afraid of was that the only person in the world who treated him well would take away all her kindness towards him, and that she would know his true evil face.
If she knew what he had done, would she still treat him the same way?
If she gets his "like" and he has no value, will she become a stranger to him, or will she hate him because of his past?
He thought he could stay with her as if nothing had happened. If she died one day, his only attachment to the world would disappear. What difference would there be between living and dying? If that day came, he would leave with her.
The rain hit the umbrella, and Yan Weixin looked at the girl in front of him who was holding the umbrella for him and looking at him worriedly. She was different from him, she still had expectations and hopes for the world in her eyes, and she wanted to survive.
He was originally a wandering soul from the dead, with nowhere to go, and he tried to parasitize on her.
The rain washed the world, and the unspeakable thoughts in his heart became clearer.
It turned out that he always felt inferior in front of her.
Facing the girl's serious gaze, he said dryly: "What if I have done it before that?"
What if he had taken this step earlier and killed someone?
Ye Rong looked at Shao Ji's cold eyes and thought of the fire in Yan's house when he was 21 years old. He was not surprised. Or maybe the bookworm had guessed that it was Shao Ji who set the fire when he saw that part.
But in this world, whether it was Yan Wenyao, Yan Yanghui, Du Shanmei, or Yan Kangan and Kong Mufu, they were all still alive. Yan Weixin was also alive, and no one was dead. He did not kill anyone.
Ye Rong didn't know what the mechanism of rebirth was. Did he accidentally get the memory of another self in a parallel world, or did he predict the future in a dream?
It cannot be explained scientifically, and there is no way to prove that it really exists.
It's like she's wearing a book.
Now that everyone is still alive, no one can confirm whether the "previous life" in his memory is a real reality or just a predictive dream about the "future".
Ye Rong was calm and said, "Wei Xin, you can try to wake up from the nightmare, because this is the reality, the world you really live in."
As she spoke, Ye Rong, as if to assure him of this, gently placed her left palm against his slightly cool face: "Can you feel the temperature? This is reality. I know what you experienced and did in your dream. It's not surprising for a person on the verge of madness to do anything. I understand how you felt at the time. Although I have never agreed to take someone's life in any way, I won't blame you for what happened in your dream, because if I had experienced what you experienced, I might not be calmer than you, and I might not be able to remain rational."
"…" At that moment, he looked as if he had given up something. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "Sister, I might kill you too."
Ye Rong was startled, and instantly understood what he meant. Without having time to think about how he knew, she said, "If I die one day, it will definitely not be your fault. On the contrary, it is because of your existence that I can have this summer vacation."
Speaking of life and death, perhaps because she had died once before, she did not have much fear of death and was calm when she spoke of it. Moreover, it was because of Yan Weixin that she had another three months to live.
If she really couldn't raise his sensitivity to 100 in the end, her final outcome would not be caused by him.
"Besides," Ye Rong paused, holding the umbrella and smiling at him, "and I never thought I would die because of you, I thought I would be liked by you... Wei Xin?"
The hand holding the umbrella was covered by a slightly cool and slender hand. Ye Rong was surprised for a moment. Then he pulled the hand holding the umbrella slightly, and Ye Rong leaned forward unexpectedly——
"!!!"
By the time she came to her senses, she was already sitting on Shaoqi's lap, the umbrella still held in her hand, but the strength was not hers, and her other hand was around his waist.
Ye Rong blinked, not knowing why it turned out like this. The hands on her waist kept her sitting still and she couldn't get up.
She looked at the young lady and called out, "Wei Xin?"
"Yes." Yan Weixin looked at the girl sitting on his lap and asked, "Sister, touch me again."
“………”Ye Rong paused. Touch the face?
Ye Rongxin placed her palm on his slightly cool face. His skin was a little cold because of the rain, and even the ends of his hair were dripping with water.
But because she was born with a plump face, her lower lip had a bit of bright red from being bitten, and her eyes were half-closed at this moment, which gave her another kind of heart-breaking beauty.
The rain hit the umbrella and the water stream slid down along the umbrella.
"I like being with my sister. I want her to survive. I want to be with her forever. When I'm with her, I feel like I'm a human being." Yan Weixin looked at her. His voice was soft and sounded a little unreal in the sound of rain, so Ye Rong subconsciously leaned over to close the distance between them so that she could hear him clearly.
Looking at the girl leaning slightly towards him, the scent of flowers with body temperature wafting from her body. At this moment, just the slight warmth of his hands and face made him feel unsatisfied. He couldn't help but hold her in his arms, resting his chin on her shoulder, and sighed slightly: "Sister's body is warm, I won't feel cold anymore."
Ye Rong wanted to say that it was because you had been in the rain for so long that the temperature of your body was taken away by the rain, so you felt cold. But now she let him hold her, because he looked like a wandering soul abandoned by the world.
The seemingly fragmented soul with memories of the past life is incompatible with this normally functioning world.
It's going to be fine.
Ye Rong gently stroked his back, trying to warm him up, but a gust of wind blew over. Ye Rong's clothes were thin to begin with, and they got wet when they came into contact with water. Yan Weixin's hug also made them almost wet. When the wind blew, her body shivered unconsciously.
Ye Rong: “…”
"Sister, are you cold?" Noticing the girl trembling in his arms, Yan Weixin let her go. Then he saw that her shirt was mostly wet from his hug. The light from the street lamp was dim, but the wet shirt was still conspicuous.
Yan Weixin paused and said, "Sorry, I got my sister's clothes wet."
"It's okay." Ye Rong didn't mind. "Come to the hotel with me first. It's getting late. Come to my place and rest for a night tomorrow."
Yan Weixin paused and looked at the girl who was sitting on his lap with a confident look on her face.
Ye Rong met his gaze and realized that this statement could easily be misunderstood, so she hurriedly explained, "I live in a suite, and I'll let you stay in the second bedroom tonight. Before I left, I specifically asked Sister Lin to prepare some clothes for you to change into, which should be delivered by now. You're soaked, you need to take a shower, or you'll catch a cold."
Yan Weixin responded softly: "Yeah."
Ye Rong looked at his hand around her waist and said, "Then let me get up first."
Yan Weixin let go of her hand and let her get up, and he also got up from the bench.
At this moment, Yan Weixin was completely wet, while Ye Rong was still one-third dry, but it looked almost the same. The rain showed no sign of stopping, so the two of them walked out of the park with an umbrella.
It's still a bit cold in this heavy rain.
After getting in the car, Ye Rong turned on the heater and felt a little warmer.
When they arrived at the hotel, Ye Rong took a paper bag of clothes from the living room and gave it to him: "Take a shower quickly, don't catch a cold."
Yan Weixin glanced at the clothes she handed over, smiled and took them: "Thank you, sister."
Seeing Yan Weixin staying in the second bedroom, Ye Rong first called the front desk to send up dinner, and then went to her room to take a shower.
After taking a shower, Ye Rong blew her hair dry and changed her clothes, then she felt a little uncomfortable.
She calculated the date and thought that the timing was too coincidental as she had important things to do tomorrow.
Ye Rong touched her aching lower abdomen while lying on the bed. She hadn't felt the pain for a while and it felt strange.
Ye Rong curled up her body, holding her cell phone and was about to ask Sister Lin for painkillers when there was a knock on the door.
"Sister, can I come in?"
"Well... come in."
As soon as Yan Weixin entered the room, he saw her curled up on the bed: "Sister?"
"………" Ye Rong wanted to remember it now, but her body didn't support her to do it. Facing Yan Weixin's worried look, she said quickly: "It's okay, I just have a stomachache. It will be gone after taking painkillers."
After Ye Rong said this, Yan Weixin immediately understood that it was her menstrual period.
Because of him, she got caught in the rain and caught a cold, so that's why she felt pain?
"Sister." Yan Weixin walked to her bedside and touched her forehead. There was no sign of high fever. "I'll buy painkillers for you. Please wait here for a while."
After saying that, Yan Weixin left.
Ye Rong: “…”
The editor's message to Sister Lin had not been sent yet, but Yan Weixin had already come out.
