Chapter 76: The Dinosaur Stomped Its Feet and Finally Admitted It Likes Me?
[Sir, Xu Wenci's grandmother wants to see Xu Wenci.]
Fu Yanli sat on a bench in the hospital corridor, tapping his phone screen lightly with his fingers, waiting for Xu Wenci to finish his examination and appear.
He looked down, exited the chat software, then opened it again and gently tapped Xu Wenci's chat avatar.
You patted Xu Wenci on the shoulder.
Fu Yanli was surprised. He looked away, thought for two seconds, and then poked twice more.
You patted Xu Wenci on the shoulder.
The other side sent me a green dinosaur stomping its feet emoji.
Fu Yanli smiled and immediately seized the opportunity to send messages in a flurry:
How are you feeling? Is there anything that's bothering you?
【No. 】
On the other side, Xu Wenci frowned, not understanding why Fu Yanli had suddenly brought him for a medical check-up.
Ye Qingdai had already taken them for a check-up last time.
Xu Wenci was still a little weak after his fever broke today and couldn't help but doze off.
I'm a little tired after the inspection.
Seeing Fu Yanli sitting dejectedly on the bench with his head hanging low, he couldn't help but turn his head speechlessly: "Why did you bring me to the hospital?"
"We originally planned to have a doctor come to our home for a check-up, but we didn't have the necessary equipment, so we had to come to the hospital."
Xu Wenci's slightly flushed cheeks made her look even more fragile, but she rolled her eyes at Fu Yanli, which made her seem more lively despite her weakness.
“I wanted to ask,” Xu Wenci pursed his lips, “aren’t there so many people wanted for you? Why are you at the hospital?”
Fu Yanli's previously listless eyes instantly lit up, and he raised an eyebrow: "Of course it's because I'm afraid of not being healthy. Also, are you worried about me?!"
Xu Wenci pouted, "Don't say anything yet."
Fu Yanli indeed remained silent, continuing to look down at his phone.
Xu Wenci didn't turn his head, but looked in the direction of Fu Yanli.
The next second, the phone vibrated.
Fu Yanli sent an emoji.
It's the same as what I just sent him.
Xu Wenci pursed his lips and chuckled softly.
"Last night," Xu Wenci paused for two seconds, seemingly asking casually, "you took care of me?"
"Of course, is there a second person in that villa?" Fu Yanli raised his head.
"Was it the same in the last world?"
The moment the question left his lips, Xu Wenci pursed his lips, not expecting that he would blurt it out.
“I don’t know,” Fu Yanli shook his head. “I don’t know when you got sick, it just so happens that you were sick every time I came home.”
Fu Yanli's words were infuriating.
But Xu Wenci was not angry.
It seems that Fu Yanli did indeed take care of him every time he was sick.
However, he didn't know that at the time.
The script from the last world didn't seem that impressive.
“Yi Pei from the last world, what a pity…” Fu Yanli suddenly said.
Xu Wenci's expression was blank.
His suffering in the previous world was mostly caused by Fu Yanli and Yi Pei.
However, they were all being controlled.
Who can he blame?
Was the Fu Yanli who was controlled in the last world really the same Fu Yanli he loved?
“Fu Yanli, I really want to…” Xu Wenci smiled, sitting down next to Fu Yanli, their thighs touching, “I really want to kill you, but I’ve already killed you once, so why do I still feel this way…”
It's still so painful...
Xu Wenci said these words with a smile, which was extremely chilling.
But Fu Yanli, listening quietly to these words, was like a puppet on a string, without any expression or movement.
"The truth of the last world is no longer important."
Xu Wenci leaned back on the bench and let out a long sigh of relief.
Back at the villa, the two of them fell silent.
"Would you like to play a game..." Fu Yanli licked his lips and finally spoke, "Answer questions based on how well we knew each other in the last world, and see who gets the highest score."
Xu Wenci nodded: "Okay."
Fu Yanli reached out and touched Xu Wenci's fingers. He gently tapped the back of Xu Wenci's hand, then pointed to his own ear, and turned his head to smile at Xu Wenci.
Xu Wenci squinted.
She forgot that she seemed to be pretending to be disgusted by Fu Yanli's touch.
"What sports do I like?" Fu Yanli asked.
Xu Wenci murmured softly, "Morning run."
Fu Yanli shook his head: "No, I go for my morning runs every day for the sake of my public image, okay?"
Xu Wenci frowned: "But it's become a habit now."
Fu Yanli: "Then you're right."
Fu Yanli then asked, "In the previous world, when did you start liking me?"
Xu Wenci pursed his lips and lowered his head.
Fu Yanli waved his hand dismissively: "If you don't want to talk about it, then don't."
"When you were twenty-six, the first time you appeared in a coffee shop."
Fu Yanli's eyes widened instantly.
When he was 26, he studied abroad. The only time he returned to China, he only stayed in Suzhou for a few days.
Not in Haicheng.
Are you sure that's me?
Xu Wenci's eyes widened instantly, and he quickly stood up, wishing he could drag Fu Yanli to that coffee shop as soon as possible. "You don't remember?"
Fu Yanli: This might be a bit small.
"No..." A sudden thought flashed through Xu Wenci's mind, "Then when did you fall in love with me..."
"Well..." Fu Yanli scratched his head sheepishly, "...the time you saved me in Suzhou..."
Xu Wenci: What nonsense are you talking about? I never left Haicheng in the last world.
However, this also proves that his conjecture was correct.
Fu Yanli also recovered from his daze...
The two of them went to Suzhou a while ago.
The time they tried to break free from the control of the plot...
Ironically, this became the reason why the two of them fell in love in the previous world.
"So you admit you like me?" Fu Yanli rested his arm on the back of the sofa, propped his head up, and smiled with his head tilted to the side.
His scheme succeeded.
However... it has brought up some deeper issues.
"..." Xu Wenci remained silent.
"Then ask away, I'll definitely answer honestly." Fu Yanli raised his hands in surrender, his gaze sincere.
Never mind what it is, changing the subject is always the right thing to do.
"Why did you commit suicide in the last world...?"
Xu Wenci lowered his eyes, as if recalling some painful memory, and asked softly.
This question, which was obviously asked without question, left Fu Yanli speechless.
The reason I like Xu Wenci can be said offhand at any time.
But... why can't I say it now...?
Xu Wenci looked at Fu Yanli, his amber eyes flickered, and finally revealed a hint of mockery.
Fu Yanli is a person who always lies to him.
No matter how stupid the thing is, whether he knows it or not, he is lying to him.
how?
Are you no longer willing to lie?
"Why did you give me a snake...?"
Fu Yanli did not answer.
The mockery in Xu Wenci's eyes was completely revealed.
"It's because you like them, isn't it... You like snakes, so you force these things on me..." He sneered, but tears welled up in his eyes.
Fu Yanli blinked, his dry eyes aching slightly. He could barely hear what Xu Wenci was saying...
My eyes hurt so much.
Perhaps because of the pain, he didn't have the mind to think too much. He opened his mouth, and what he had been hiding was said:
"You said you liked it."
Xu Wenci was stunned.
Memory is a deceiving thing.
Fu Yanli covered his head, reached out a hand, and tugged at Xu Wenci's wrist again.
Xu Wenci looked down at the arm that Fu Yanli was holding.
There was a thin scar on his wrist.
It was when I was little, I was cut by glass.
After starting a relationship with Fu Yanli, Fu Yanli always felt heartbroken when she saw the scars on his body.
However, at that time, in order to comfort Fu Yanli, he said, "This scar of mine looks like a snake, and I really like it. Please don't remove it."
Fu Yanli believed it.
Fu Yanli used to be afraid of snakes.
Yeah?
Xu Wenci squinted, recalling.
He couldn't remember.
Xu Wenci squatted down and touched Fu Yanli's forehead.
Fu Yanli was in great distress...
Why is he in so much pain...?
"Xu Wenci," Fu Yanli hugged him tightly around the waist, pulling him into his arms, but he buried his head in Xu Wenci's chest, closed his eyes, and gently nuzzled him, "It hurts so much..."
Fu Yanli is someone who is very afraid of pain.
From childhood to adulthood, his life has been the envy of countless people.
There's no need to suffer, and no need to grow up with pain and exhaustion.
In the script, he never suffered hardship, never got tired, and never got injured or felt pain.
Therefore, he was always particularly unaccustomed to the pain when it came.
But he was always particularly concerned about Xu Wenci's pain.
"Xu Wenci, in the last world, did you commit suicide?"
"no."
The answer was given without hesitation.
Xu Wenci seemed very sensitive to the answer to this question.
What he cherished most was life.
How could he possibly commit suicide?
He rebelled in order to survive...
His life is the most important thing.
Fu Yanli gripped Xu Wenci's wrist and rubbed it against his cheek.
Xu Wenci froze.
"Xu Wenci, are you feeling very unwell?" Fu Yanli asked knowingly.
He knew that Xu Wenci might have initially felt nauseous and had psychological trauma from his death, but now, absolutely not.
"When did you realize that I don't like other people touching me..." Xu Wenci didn't move, just let Fu Yanli hold him.
"I knew that back in the last century."
I see.
I see.
Xu Wenci frowned, but hugged Fu Yanli even tighter.
In the previous world, Fu Yanli only truly possessed a soul after death.
In the previous world, he only truly saw himself clearly at the moment of Fu Yanli's death.
"Do you still hate me?" Fu Yanli murmured softly.
"hatred."
Xu Wenci remained stubborn.
He was so stubborn that he allowed Fu Yanli to misunderstand him time and time again, but he refused to back down.
"Do you still want to kill me?"
"think."
"Why don't you kill me now...?"
"I've reformed."
Fu Yanli chuckled and gently patted Xu Wenci's back, but still nestled in Xu Wenci's arms.
"I know." He nuzzled Xu Wenci's chin with his hair again, then buried his head in Xu Wenci's chest, his voice muffled, "If I don't marry you, will your plan succeed?"
"Can't."
"Then I need an ice cream cake to match your plan."
"Can."
“However,” Xu Wenci shifted his body, turning over naturally to sit on the sofa, “I still have questions. The game isn’t over yet…”
Fu Yanli tilted his head and gently moved his head closer to Xu Wenci.
The next second, a dagger was plunged into Fu Yanli's heart once again.
Fu Yanli, go to hell.
Xu Wenci smiled.
This time, his hands did not tremble.
Practice makes perfect.
How could I possibly be trembling again this time?
Go to hell.
Xu Wenci muttered to himself.
Go to hell.
Fu Yanli, go to hell.
Only if Fu Yanli dies can his plan proceed smoothly.
He will marry that dead man, Fu Yanli.
The dagger fell to the floor, leaving a long trail of blood.
Xu Wenci looked down at Fu Yanli and wiped the blood from his face.
No, there was no blood on his face originally.
With a swipe of the hand, bloodstains appeared.
What was wiped away were tears.
The author's note: Fu Yanli and Xu Wenci's love for each other is very pure.
They tolerated his weakness, tolerated his foolishness, allowed him to escape, and accepted his mistakes. Even though they were not on the same side or had the same ideas, they still liked each other.
People are naturally drawn to those who share their views and opinions, but love is about acceptance—accepting their imperfections and their incompatibility with others.
However, is it appropriate to discuss this within the context of this storyline? (fingers)
The foreshadowing is being resolved, and the story is about to end. Some might wonder why Xu Wenci's hatred for Fu Yanli seems to have suddenly disappeared. Actually, Xu Wenci doesn't hate Fu Yanli that much. What he hates is that Fu Yanli didn't awaken sooner, that Fu Yanli thought he could solve everything for him, and that Fu Yanli never tells him the truth. However, the hatred he feels for Fu Yanli won't end just because he knows Fu Yanli is being controlled. The moment he recognizes love as love will come later in the story.
Actually, I was a little worried that I would make Xu Wenci's character too cliché. I always tried to figure out Xu Wenci's character more. He is a person who doesn't have many emotions. On the surface, he doesn't seem as outgoing and easy to write as Fu Yanli's character.
I've been quite anxious lately. In the final stages, I'm always worried that I won't be able to write it the way I envisioned. I'm trying my best to wrap up the main storyline, but the plot is progressing very quickly, which may lead to abrupt transitions, short polishing time, and a chaotic pacing. I will try to fix these issues if I have the ability to do so later.
I recently learned about the animal modeling test and I don't know if it can be written in the side story. I answered twenty questions from Xu Wenci's perspective. I will definitely answer them all and write them down when I have time. It may be in the form of a side story, or most likely, it will be briefly mentioned in the author's notes.
I was so anxious I couldn't sleep at night, always getting up to read it over and over again, but I didn't know how to revise it. And extensive revisions would drain my energy, plus there were so many changes to the completion date. Today, Mommy told me that finishing a novel is already amazing, and she absolutely had to buy me a huge ice cream cake on the day it's finished. Thank you for your support, Mommy.
