Chapter 42 Uncontrollable Factors Beyond the Plot: There are two... within his body.
"Young Master, what do you need us to do?"
Two bodyguards stood on either side of Fu Yanli.
Fu Yanli sat on the sofa, propping his head up with his hand, and sighed.
He borrowed bodyguards to protect Xu Wenci, that irritable dinosaur.
After all, a grumpy dinosaur is prone to both beating others and getting beaten up.
Even with the protagonist's halo, there's no guarantee that nothing unexpected might happen.
“If you stay by Xu Wenci’s side, he should be able to sense you. If he could shake you off, he wouldn’t need to follow you.”
"OK."
His bodyguards belong to the Fu family, so it's not safe for him.
The Ye family's bodyguards are known for their safety.
That way, Xu Wenci, that little black flower, won't have to worry about not having time to deal with that bunch of scum.
"By the way, you won't tell my mom about these things, will you?" Fu Yanli lowered his eyes, the deep purple light in his eyes suddenly intensifying. "She must have said that she would protect my privacy."
"Yes, young master, please rest assured, we will not tell anyone except you."
Fu Yanli smiled.
That's good.
He was of course at ease with his mother and trusted the Ye family, but he was now unsure of his mother's opinion.
Life went on peacefully like that.
Then, Fu Yanli got into a car accident.
Xu Wenci answered the phone expressionlessly, rushed to the hospital expressionlessly, and sat down by the bed expressionlessly.
After exchanging a glance with Gu Pei, Xu Wenci's amber eyes finally lit up.
I hope Fu Yanli's brain wasn't damaged by the accident.
Gu Pei frowned and shook his head.
No, no.
Has the seme finally lost his memory? [Expecting][Expecting][Expecting] I'm curious if the plot has changed... [Winking][Winking][Winking]
[I'm so curious if the seme remembers the uke at all [rubbing hands][rubbing hands][rubbing hands] Did the author change the plot? [scratching hair][scratching hair][scratching hair]]
Fu Yanli woke up feeling a little dizzy.
He seems to have no recollection of what happened before the car accident.
Yi Pei just told him that he has a lover.
His lover... shouldn't she be the weakling in the script who can't lift a finger?
He looked up, and a beam of light fell right on the corner of his eye.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, a purple light swirling within them.
My heart seemed to skip a beat.
A few strands of her light blue short hair stood up, sticking unruly to her forehead. She seemed to have rushed over in a hurry and was still panting. She just stared at him quietly with her amber eyes, but there was fear, apprehension, and helplessness in her eyes.
It's so heartbreaking.
It seems this person truly is my lover.
"You have amnesia?"
The person in front of me was really anxious. I gripped his hand tightly, my knuckles turning white with nervousness.
Xu Wenci's eyes were a little red. He turned his back, covered his mouth, and gagged twice.
"Is he pregnant?"
Fu Yanli asked.
Gu Pei: We're doomed. I was just assuring Xu Wenci that Fu Yanli's head wasn't damaged, and now Fu Yanli is completely dumbfounded.
What's the attacker doing? [Peeking][Peeking][Peeking] Did he get stunned by the collision? [Panic-stricken][Panic-stricken][Panic-stricken]
[They've progressed to the amnesia plot? But it seems the seme has fallen for the uke again. [Definitely][Definitely][Definitely] Look at his eyes, he practically wants to stick to the uke. [Speechless][Speechless][Speechless]]
Upon seeing the comments: Is it all over? He was still reeling from the impact...
He secretly glanced at his lover and asked, "What's your name?"
[I never would have guessed the seme was so innocent... he even blushed... [winking][winking][winking]]
The bottom's expression seemed a bit complicated [frowning][frowning][frowning]
Anyone who sees the previously domineering and aloof CEO turn into this innocent-looking person would wonder if they've been set up. [eye roll][eye roll][eye roll]
"Xu Wen resigned."
Suppressing the urge to roll her eyes, Xu Wenci spoke gently.
Wow, the uke is so gentle with the seme... [chin resting on hand][chin resting on hand][chin resting on hand] Even though the seme wasn't very nice to him before [angry][angry][angry]
[The seme was pretty good to the uke before, right? [winking emoji] He used to spend millions on her. [envious emoji]
Fu Yanli lowered his head in thought.
Fu Yanli thought it through carefully.
He really is the main character; the "dominant" character mentioned in the comments is indeed him.
That makes sense. Someone as perfect as him is definitely the protagonist who's the dominant one.
It turns out that her lover, Xu Wenci, had always been by her side.
Although the comments kept praising him—no, he really is that great—it was still impossible to tell whether the comments were genuine or not.
"Um... how long ago did we get together?"
Are you really stupid?
Xu Wen resigned from court and winked at Gu Pei, "Didn't you say you'd make the system ensure he wouldn't lose his memory?"
Gu Pei shrugged. "How would I know? It's the system's fault."
Moreover, if Fu Yanli really wanted to lose his memory, how could he possibly stop him?
[Looks like the seme really has amnesia... [laughing][laughing][laughing] He doesn't remember at all that he actually confessed to the uke and they never officially got together [laughing][pounding the wall][clutching stomach]]
Fu Yanli lowered his eyes and blinked hard. Did he really not confess to Xu Wenci? That's not like him... Could it be... that he really damaged his brain?
“One month,” Xu Wenci said.
Gu Pei: Xu Wenci, what nonsense are you talking about? You really like Fu Yanli, this character from the book?
[The bottom is so doting on the top... [Thumbs up][Thumbs up][Thumbs up]]
[After losing his memory, it seems their feelings for each other deepened considerably...]
A month?
Fu Yanli decided not to believe the comments section.
It's better to trust Xu Wenci, my lover.
A sharp pain shot through his temples, as if an electric drill was drilling into his skull. The buzzing sound pierced his eardrums, and his entire skull trembled.
Fu Yanli gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and remained silent.
That must hurt so much.
Are the aftereffects of a car accident really that serious?
[The attacker should ask if they've kissed. Why ask how long they've been together? [Grabbing neck][Grabbing neck][Grabbing neck] Don't you already know if they've been together? Didn't Yi Pei tell you? [Angry][Angry][Angry]]
Fu Yanli lowered his head and coughed lightly.
Is he out of his mind or are there really comments on the screen? The comments are so interesting, I really want to chat with them.
Xu Wenci didn't give Fu Yanli a friendly look; he was more interested in the system.
So he pulled Gu Pei away from the ward quickly, and called a nurse to check if Fu Yanli's brain was damaged.
[This is hilarious! Does the bottom really think the top's brain is broken? [pounding chest and stamping feet][pounding chest and stamping feet][pounding chest and stamping feet]]
[Baby, please think of something... [crying][crying][crying]]
“System,” Gu Pei almost squeezed the ball of light in front of him flat, “didn’t you say Fu Yanli wouldn’t lose his memory?”
That's how it should be, logically.
The system, having painstakingly escaped Gu Pei's torment, earnestly explained:
However, there are uncontrollable factors in the plot.
"Didn't you control all the uncontrollable factors?" Gu Pei continued to rage. "What uncontrollable factors are there in this plot? Tell me, I want to tear that thing apart with my own hands..."
“It might not be an uncontrollable factor in the plot,” Xu Wenci said, leaning against the wall and looking up.
"Dude, can you stop showing off?" Gu Pei retorted calmly, his face expressionless.
Leaning against the wall in such a cool and aloof posture, head bowed in melancholy, staring at the floor tiles, then looking up again after thinking of a solution, he exudes a melancholy aura.
He's running out of adjectives.
Gu Pei silently gave a thumbs-up in his heart.
"Stop rolling your eyes," Gu Pei said. "What uncontrollable factors?"
"author."
Gu Pei: Okay, you can show off.
“What you said makes a lot of sense. The author is revising the story and might have corrected the plot that went astray.” Gu Pei stroked his chin and analyzed seriously. “Then the author won’t find out what we did before, right? And the comments, and the fact that we two transmigrated, won’t the author have changed them too, right?”
"How accurate were your previous claims about the author's plagiarism?"
“Twelve out of ten…” Gu Pei patted his chest, but didn’t seem very excited; instead, his eyes drooped. “After all…”
He didn't say the last words.
"Do you have any evidence?" Xu Wenci just wanted to get rid of this damn plot. He didn't want to play that amnesia game with Fu Yanli, nor did he want to waste any more effort playing that spy game with Fu Yanli and Fu Rongzhen.
Or perhaps Fu Yanli's amnesia was something he deliberately orchestrated for himself.
After all, Fu Yanli has always been a man of deep cunning.
"No." Gu Pei shook his head, a dark light flashing in his eyes.
Does the system have it?
[Evidence can only be obtained by finding the author of the book that was plagiarized, but that author has long since disappeared without a trace.]
"Maybe he's dead?" Gu Pei forced a smile.
[Host, please don't curse others~]
"Can't the system find that person?"
system:
That world was never under our system's jurisdiction, so there's nothing we can do about it.
Gu Pei sighed: "Don't waste your energy... Let's not even talk about the fact that we can't find which book was plagiarized right now. It's just that one author messed up the plot, so the book can't be changed at all, and that author can't be accused of plagiarism at all..."
Xu Wenci frowned. They were in this world, the author was in another world, and the system couldn't send them to the other world.
No, perhaps Yi Pei can go back.
"What is your mission? Can you go back after completing the mission?" Xu Wenci asked.
Gu Pei: "According to the plot, I'll ruin your relationship and then you two will kill me. Of course, I can go back after completing the mission. However, judging from the current progress, I won't be able to go back anytime soon."
Xu Wenci lies without thinking. He needs a reasonable excuse to explain why he keeps hanging around Fu Yanli, and he also needs a reasonable motive to reduce Gu Pei and the system's suspicion of him. So he racked his brains to lie: "My mission is to win over Fu Yanli."
Gu Pei blinked: "Then you should have finished your task a long time ago."
Xu Wenci shook his head: "You're mistaken. Fu Yanli is a very cunning person. My progress in winning him over is less than 20% right now."
Gu Pei: "But isn't he also a time traveler?"
Xu Wenci instantly thought of Fu Yanli from the previous world, so he casually made up a story: "Actually, I discovered that there are two souls in his body."
Gu Pei's eyes widened, but his face was full of suspicion: "Don't you not have a system? How do you know this secret?"
Xu Wenci's heart suddenly ached.
how so?
A casual remark turned out to be a secret?
Two souls?
“The two souls behave differently, and I can definitely tell from our usual interactions.” Xu Wenci made up a story on the spot, but his eyes remained fixed on the ball of light floating on Gu Pei’s shoulder.
In fact, Fu Yanli's behavior was not contradictory at all; Fu Yanli was always the Fu Yanli that he knew.
From his perspective, such a possibility simply does not exist.
"That's why you've always been so strange." Gu Pei clapped his hands, feeling that he could now explain the things that had seemed strange to him before.
Regardless of Xu Wenci's unconscious hatred towards Fu Yanli.
It was still Xu Wenci's conflicted attitude towards Fu Yanli.
Xu Wenci squinted, his amber eyes seeming to have been dotted with a drop of caramel, gradually deepening in color.
Two souls?
The system shouldn't have any errors, so how did those two souls manage to be completely flawless in front of him?
He and Fu Yanli lived two lifetimes together, yet he knew absolutely nothing about Fu Yanli?
Author's Note: I originally planned to revise up to chapter 50 today, but the revision process was a bit slow, and I didn't reach the target chapter. I'll continue tomorrow. [heart emoji]
