Shen Yunhao felt like he had a very long dream.
In his dream, he saw "his" entire life.
From birth to the physical "soul flying away to heaven".
From initial boundless ambition, to a period of confusion and aimlessness, and finally to a sudden awakening before his death...
After he died, he returned to that night, to the bar across from the school.
The group of close friends got completely drunk, and in his hazy state, Shen Yunhao seemed to have encountered a very gentle girl.
Half-heartedly, Shen Yunhao experienced the most wonderful night in twenty years.
So much so that when he woke up the next morning, he still had a silly grin on his face, and he kept kneading something soft in his hands.
"Meow...meow..."
Then I was woken up by a cat meowing.
Shen Yunhao opened his eyes groggily, only to find a fat cat curled up in his arms, being squeezed and flattened by his hands.
He was stunned for about three seconds.
"Holy crap! Milk Tea! It's you!"
Shen Yunhao exclaimed in surprise, instantly waking up. He sat up abruptly and threw off the covers.
Sure enough, besides himself, there was only a cat with a "life is meaningless" expression on its face on the bed, and no one else.
"Only milk tea... What about that dream last night..."
Shen Yunhao was struck dumb, clutching his head with both hands, his face deathly pale: "It's all over! What did I do to a cat last night? How could I... I shouldn't have..."
However, before he could dwell on it for long, he suddenly realized something.
"Wait? Milk tea? How did milk tea end up here...? I...wasn't I at the hotel? This is..."
At this moment, Shen Yunhao finally noticed the familiar yet unfamiliar surroundings.
The antique-style room, with its well-arranged furniture, seemed like a scene from my memory, yet it also seemed not.
Shen Yunhao swallowed hard, rolled out of bed, and, wearing only his underpants, rushed to the door, pushed it open, and looked inside.
The spacious courtyard, ancient porch, pavilions and waterside terraces, carved beams and painted rafters, and several maids and servants dressed in ancient costumes were busy walking around, creating a harmonious and peaceful scene.
The maids were stunned to see the Third Young Master suddenly run out, disheveled. The timid ones blushed and ran away, while the bolder ones stared at him with curiosity.
The servants, on the other hand, were overjoyed.
"Young Master! You're finally awake!"
"See? I told you so! That fairy was too vigorous. The moment she left, the Third Young Master was already full of energy and got out of bed!"
"I suspect the young master has been faking sleep for the past three days. Otherwise, what a coincidence!"
"That's quite possible. I never expected that the young mistress, who looks so gentle, could frighten the young master like this!"
"Shh! Shut up now, are you out of your mind?! Even if Fairy Ning has already left in anger and may not come back, even if she really becomes the young mistress, how dare we mortals talk about her!"
"..."
However, Shen Yunhao ignored all of this.
Looking at the scene before him, which seemed like a different world, he fell into deep self-doubt.
Is this a dream... or reality...?
Who am I...?
Could it be... that I've traveled back in time again?
...
"On your wedding day, you left your bride completely drunk, and didn't wake up for three days straight, leaving your new wife hanging for three whole days. Shen Yunhao, what exactly are you trying to do?"
Inside the room, the middle-aged man who had sent Shen Yunhao to the bridal chamber, Shen Muzhi, the head of the Shen family, was berating Shen Yunhao.
"Is it Fairy Ning who wronged you, or the entire Shen family? What should have been a joyous occasion was ruined by your insistence on making it known throughout the city. Now, Fairy Ning has left without a word, and the Shen family has become a laughingstock in the eyes of everyone in Lin Yuan City! Are you satisfied now?"
"Shen Yunhao, your father was a man of great reputation, how could he have given birth to such a good-for-nothing like you?"
"Oh dear, sir, what nonsense are you talking about!" At this moment, a middle-aged woman dressed in fine clothes pushed open the door and said in a soft voice, "You're really getting senile. Yunhao is a member of our Shen family, and he'll have a bright future ahead of him. How can you call him a money-loser!"
"What are you doing here?" Shen Muchi frowned, picked up his teacup and took a sip, perhaps realizing that what he had said earlier had been a bit too much.
"If I hadn't come, with your temper, who knows what nasty things you would have said!"
"Hmph! That brat deserves to be scolded! I only let him off the previous few days because of Fairy Ning, otherwise I would have kicked him out of the house!"
"Alright! This isn't over yet... Yun Hao just sobered up and needs to rest, let's not disturb him!"
Shen Muchi waved his sleeve, slammed the door, and stormed out: "You're hopeless! Sooner or later you'll drag the entire Shen family down with you..."
After the man left, the woman comforted Shen Yunhao on the bed, saying, "Yunhao, don't listen to his nonsense. The master was very worried about you while you were unconscious!"
At this moment, Shen Yunhao was lying flat on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. Hearing this, he couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
miss?
I think they're afraid of losing Ning Yuyao, their powerful ally... Right now, forget about clinging to her; you'd be lucky if she didn't hold a grudge against you...
My past aimless and irresponsible behavior—wasn't it related to this terrible family environment? Especially this "uncle."
I almost stuck the word "CPU" on my face.
only……
The aunt Liu Yuling in front of me is one of the few people in the entire Shen family who are truly good to me.
After a moment of silence, Shen Yunhao finally spoke:
"Auntie...is Yao'er really gone?"
"Yao'er? Oh, you mean Miss Ning... She did leave this morning! We asked someone to inquire at the Ning residence, and we heard that she went back to her sect."
Seemingly worried that Shen Yunhao might be concerned, he added, "Perhaps their sect has some urgent matter to attend to, so don't overthink it..."
"..."
"However, Yunhao, not that I'm criticizing you, but what you did to Miss Ning was really inappropriate!"
The woman sighed: "Tell me, what is more important than a young woman's purity? The fact that someone doesn't mind your background and is willing to marry you is the greatest sacrifice in the world. Why make things so difficult for them..."
Clearly, Shen Yunhao's actions on their wedding day made his aunt feel very embarrassed.
"I understand, Auntie, you can go ahead with your work. I want to be alone for a while..."
Liu Yuling nodded slightly: "Then you should rest first. If you get hungry, just tell someone to go to the kitchen. You haven't eaten for three days, don't go hungry..."
As he was leaving, his aunt turned and glanced at him once more.
For some reason, she always felt that this Shen Yunhao... was somewhat different.
This difference, however, gives people a strange sense of familiarity... as if they have seen it somewhere before.
