You Xi Wang accepted his new life after he t his sister and realized how much she cared about him. He also felt sorry for pretending to be You Xi Wang. He changed his clothes and headed out of the hospital; he didn't forget to look around.
After reaching the hospital entrance a middle-aged man in a professional suit ca to greet them "welco back young master Xi Wang" this man was the butler and bodyguard to You Xi Wang's predecessor You Xi Wang, his na is Robert McKenzie, a robust guy with a square face, a light scar mark over his right eyebrow splitting it into two parts, a broad jaw, he looked scary yet he emitted a sense of security for You siblings, according to inherited mories You Xi Wang recalled that Robert has served in defense forces before.
Although this world called tropia has no country borders and is united by civilization, there are still toxic elents in the society that need to be dealt with by these defense forces.
You Xi Wang looked at him with a poker face and replied: "thank you, Mr. Robert, I have troubled you all."
"It's not your fault, young master," Robert humbly said.
Robert led them to a luxury looking maglev car. You Xi Wang looked at this car and was pleasantly surprised as he recalled people in his old world also worked on this vehicle. But we're not as advanced in production as in this world. Every car was a maglev.
' What a beauty' You Xi Wang thought as he watched the car.
He turned to You Zhichi by his side and tugged at her sleeves. She turned to him, looking as he said, "Could you take to see mom and dad? I haven't said goodbye to them and my heart feels very heavy because of it."
"Are you sure?" asked You Zhichi as she was worried that visiting the graves might affect her brother's state of mind.
"I will be fine, I need to see them and please Chichi trust " You Xi Wang assured her with a faint smile and confident look on his face.
"OK, I trust you, let's go, " she gazed at him for a second and turned to Robert, who understood her motive and nodded.
After they boarded the car, they traveled at a speed of 200 km per hour, what surprised You Xi Wang was not the speed, but that even at such a high speed the car was stable and there were no traffic complications.
[Get used to it already for fucks sake you were 26 in your old life besides 16 years worth morized and knowledge and experience in this life makes you elder to even Robert, master grow up please, I feel disgusted by your antics]
This remark by system turned his mood sour, and he thought about it and accepted the fact, but still retorted ' you dumbass system, even if I have the mories I have never experienced all this myself so shut that sewer of a mouth and let experience this'
[Oh, so logic. Okay, I'll spare your puny self-esteem, but don't you go being an idiot again or I might take over your consciousness]
Like a lightning bolt hit him You Xi Wang sat up straight and alert 'what do you an you are a part of mine you can't have the power to do that. Tell , do you have that power your bitch ass system' yelled You Xi Wang in his mind?
[I may do or I may not, you'll know if you act like a newborn brat again.]
The system answered in a warning tone. Well, the system does not have that skill, but it made You Xi Wang to be more alert.
Well, he beca a loser in his past life and developed this habit of slacking off and blaming himself so this way system ensured he changes his ways by bit.
They reached the cetery where his parents were buried. After alighting the vehicle You Xi Wang saw the entrance to the cetery on top of which hung a plaque writing in bold yet soft characters {SILICA CITY CETERY}.
The siblings entered and Robert followed them with a 5 step distance.
You Zhichi looked at her brother and tapped his shoulder while saying "You are okay, right Gougou?"
You Xi Wang didn't smile or you can say he couldn't but he looked at her with firm eyes and nodded. His sister heaved a sigh as she bought him to their parent's grave mound.
Two white gravestones made of white marble stood there with elegant engravings of plum trees and moonlit landscape.
You Xi Wang smiled while You Zhichi asked, "Why are you smiling?"
Without turning towards her he answered while his eyes locked on the gravestones, "Do you not know what these engravings depict?"
She looked at them again in silence and after a while, tears ford in her eyes. She rembered her father would always use a phrase in Mandarin to describe her 'Yugung xi de y h' which ans 'jade lake under the moonlight.'
She kneeled in front of her father's grave, which depicted a lake under the moonlight while You Xi Wang kneeled and kowtowed the graves. His mother's gravestone depicted a plum tree with its leaves scattering in the wind. It represented You Xi Wang's nickna, 'Gougou'.
You Xi Wang looked at the gravestones and he prayed for the departed souls of his parents, both in this life and the old one.
'Mom, dad your son once gave up and beca a loser but by the grace of your blessings I was given this second chance, I am forever grateful to both of you for giving so much love and care, I will always rember you and will always be your son. Rest in peace'
Unknowingly, he started shedding tears because in his past life he never offered his prayer to his deceased parents as he was not ready to let them go.
'Madam, sir, your son You Xi Wang gave a second chance, although I may sound hypocritical his mories and feelings are now mine too, and I cannot explain, I felt the sa way and right now it hurts a lot and I don't have enough words to explain this pain, but I will carry you within , I will beco stronger and I will make you proud. Rest in peace, mom and dad'
By the end of this emotional prayer offering, he was weeping out loud, which made You Zhichi feel worried, and she took him in her embrace while patting his back.
He wept for his ignorance and cowardice in his past life and the pain he felt in this life for the tragedy his predecessor faced, these tears also unknotted the ties in his heart. After a while, he ca back to his senses.
