Chapter 75 Li Nian's Independent Side Story - When He Remembered It (Twenty-Four)
"...This time, I will not let go."
Shen Yun gazed at Yu Qingzhou, who was unconscious and in pain, and said quickly in a soft voice.
Every word was spoken with the solemnity of a vow.
He then watched Li Nian's every move with wary eyes, in case she did anything.
After all, not long ago, this guy was a dangerous individual who genuinely wanted to kill her a second time.
Shen Yun read this part of Shen Yingxue's memory.
Although, thanks to Yu Qingzhou's intervention, things did not ultimately escalate to that point.
But Shen Yun was never wrong. The look in Li Nian's eyes back then was the same look Shen Yingxue had seen on the face of the little devil who suddenly launched a surprise attack when he was ten years old.
That is...
Undoubtedly pure murderous intent.
At this moment, Shen Yun suddenly and inappropriately began to reminisce about a certain unlucky person who died in a car accident.
Ultimately—
Li Xiao, that guy, isn't very bright.
The others, at least, remain within the realm of normal human beings and possess basic morals and a sense of right and wrong. Therefore, they would never commit such a baseless act as harming their own flesh and blood.
Shen Yun possesses all of Shen Yingxue's memories and emotions.
--vice versa.
Therefore, he knew clearly that, apart from their genders and certain specific experiences, he and Shen Yingxue were almost like another version of themselves reflected in a mirror.
In contrast, Shen Yingxue's cousin and Li Xiao are completely different people, regardless of gender and appearance.
Therefore, Chen Yun has reasonable doubts—
The person standing before you may not be the real [Li Nian] at all, but rather [something else] occupying this body.
If it were the Shen Yun of the past, she would have scoffed at such a conjecture.
But since such a bizarre phenomenon as doppelganger exists in this world, and...
Yu Qingzhou, who somehow came back to life.
So, it's not so incredible that ghosts or monsters possess humans, is it?
Who knows what kind of monstrosity is hidden inside that respectable facade?
Thinking of this, Shen Yun became even more determined not to hand Yu Qingzhou over to the other party.
"So, are you now refusing to return him to me?"
Li Nian lowered her eyes and asked about Shen Yun, but she was looking at Yu Qingzhou. His gaze was very focused, and his eyes were filled with an inappropriate tenderness.
If viewed in isolation, he is just like any ordinary young person whose heart is full of love.
Its beautiful yet fragile appearance, like porcelain, is truly moving.
Shen Yun felt that the other party's pretentiousness was truly disgusting.
"He was never yours. You and he weren't even from the same world."
He said coldly, "I am deep in thought."
Faced with such a direct exposure, Li Nian was not angry, but instead chuckled lightly.
The young man shrugged his shoulders as if he were overjoyed, clutching his stomach and shaking uncontrollably.
The exaggerated body movements were accompanied by a muffled laugh that sounded like it was stuck in his throat.
Like a mime artist who suddenly loses control on stage.
--madman.
Shen Yun frowned in disgust, coldly watching the other person's hysterical, silent laughter, then suddenly stopped, straightened up, and raised her hand to wipe away non-existent tears from the corner of her eye.
"...How dare you say something like that?"
Li Nian finally looked at Shen Yun again, her eyes devoid of any smile, gloomy like damp moss that wouldn't dissipate in a corner.
"Dr. Shen, have you forgotten that back then... back then you were the one who watched him walk step by step toward his death?"
"..."
"Because of your arrogance and negligence, the Yu Qingzhou you speak of is already dead."
"..."
"Gas poisoning must be a very long process. What were you doing during that time, Dr. Shen?"
Shen Yun knew she shouldn't be swayed by the other person's words. However, certain images involuntarily surfaced before her eyes.
In the light-colored reception room, a figure stands by the window, gazing absently at the night sky...
In the soft light of the setting sun, a young man, arms crossed, huddled anxiously in his sleep...
Standing before the tombstone, staring at the photo of the boy, his face soaked with rain…
The final image is a black-and-white funeral.
Everything has settled down.
Friends and relatives left one after another, returning to their own lives, asking about their futures, and going their separate ways.
He was the only one still standing there, opening an umbrella in the drizzle, tilting it to his side, unsure of whose head to hold it over...
But... but...
Shen Yun suddenly looked at Yu Qingzhou beside her.
It was alive, breathing, and could frown... its uneasy appearance was exactly the same as in my memory.
—If he were alive today, he would probably look like this.
—No, it's already back to life!
Moreover, Shen Yun clearly heard the other person call her Shen Yun; the tone and expression were all too familiar.
So Yu Qingzhou clearly remembered, remembered him, remembered everything between them...
So, this is the person I know...
"How despicable! Are you going to continue deceiving yourself?"
"..."
"If there really is such a thing as resurrection, why would I go through all that trouble to kill myself again and again?"
