Chapter 558: Spin-off: Cause and Effect, and Rules 3
Shen Yan saw Number 2 walking over and was always afraid she would go mad and take revenge on society.
Yet, every ti she suppressed her emotions to the extre, Number 2 would gather herself again and return to a normal state.
Number 2 forcefully corrected her own behavior, causing Shen Yan to feel a wave of heartache.
“She is really too pitiable and too kind. Is there really no way to let her have an easier ti? If it were , I would have turned dark and gone mad long ago; I couldn’t have remained like this.”
Shen Yan squatted on the ground, drawing circles in the dirt with aching sympathy.
The man stood by her side, also observing every move Number 2 made—he needed to ensure that she suffered no substantial harm to feel at ease.
“I helped her return here, which was already a violation of the rules; I can’t do anything more for her.”
“You call yourself a god.”
“Even gods have many constraints—karmic laws that they must resolve on their own. Karmic ties aren’t sothing I can simply shake; that would cost my life. For you, I would be willing to do so, but she’s not you.”
Shen Yan listened in a daze, “I’m sorry, I really don’t quite understand the karmic laws you speak of. Since that’s the case, let it be. I want to stay a bit longer; I’m really worried about her being like this.”
The man wanted to say that she didn’t need to worry at all—Number 2 was very strong in her own right, one who could suppress the darkness in her heart; such people were extraordinary.
As Shen Yan said, if it were anyone else, they would have already fallen into madness, becoming a dark and insane figure.
But Number 2 hadn’t, and was still very optimistic.
Actually, such a phenonon wasn’t always normal.
“If she weren’t such a person, she would have lost the chance to start over.”
“What about Chu Jinghe? Her nature isn’t good at all, so why does she have the chance to start anew?”
Shen Yan felt sullen, indignant on behalf of Number 2.
The man raised his hand and stroked her head, “That’s why, she and Mu Jincheng will not end well. The fortune on them should logically be impossible to absorb. Due to their own self-destruction, they’ll ultimately lose their auras, and even if I do sothing on the side, that Shen Yan will slowly take away the luck that was supposed to be theirs.”
Shen Yan looked up at him, half-tilting her head. By now, she should understand.
In summary, it ant that the man had the ability to help others, but couldn’t leave any trace. He must be secretive to cover any signs of intervention. Another reason was that her reincarnated body was injected with sothing from that Shen Yan, so there was also so opportunity involved.
But what kept that Shen Yan living steadily was the couple. The soul disease was a result of karmic law.
Their entanglent here was also due to karmic relations.
It sounded complicated, but it could be explained in just a few sentences.
“She’s going alone to deal with that thing, I want to go and see…”
“Okay.”
“Huh? Why aren’t you stopping ?”
“I won’t stop you from doing anything you want,” the man suddenly looked at her with gentle eyes, and even his tone was extrely tender.
“You are so good to !” Shen Yan giggled foolishly, “Thank you so much!”
“I will remain by your side, no matter where you go,” the man’s hand lightly brushed her ear, as tender as if he were afraid of breaking sothing precious.
A strange feeling arose in Shen Yan’s heart as she stared at her own shoes.
“Why are you so good to ? When I reincarnate, will you also stay by my side in this form? Why?” Shen Yan had no mories, and even the mories of being Shen Yan were fading, as if that were just a brief episode she experienced, insignificant.
Had she beco indifferent?
“Being good to soone doesn’t need a reason; it’s just wanting to be good to her. I don’t know what form I’ll take to be by your side, but there will always be guarding you.”
“What was I like before? I an, from the very beginning,” Shen Yan looked up again, eagerly staring at him.
The man slowly squatted in front of her, his deep eyes, laden with affection, gazing at her, “In the beginning, you were sacred.”
“Ah?”
What an odd description.
“You are the finest woman I have ever seen.”
“Do I really seem that good to you?” Shen Yan blushed a bit, “The first ti I saw you, I thought you were incredibly handso.”
The man couldn’t help but let out a light laugh, “Is that so? That’s an honor.”
“Don’t be too proud, I just thought you were handso, that’s all.”
“Mm, I never said you ant anything else. Even if you did an sothing else, it would be fine.” The man’s voice was tender yet assertive.
Shen Yan’s face blushed even further, “Hey, don’t talk to with that tone, it makes soone feel a bit shy.”
The man smiled once more, “Your karma with her has already ended. You have one more month, this is the ultimate deadline.”
“Oh.”
“Let’s go, and see what she’s up to.”
Shen Yan looked at the hand reaching out to her, her mind seed to flash with so fragnt of mory, and she hesitated.
She didn’t grasp it. It was very blurry.
“I still don’t know your na.”
The man smiled, “I have no na.”
“How can soone not have a na? Even a nickna would be good. I can’t just keep calling you ‘hey you’. How about this, I’ll give you a na, how about Gou Dan! Hahaha…” Shen Yan couldn’t help but burst into laughter first when she imagined this handso face with that na.
The man’s eyes were full of indulgence, “If you like it, it’s also possible.”
“You really let call you Gou Dan?” Shen Yan was dumbfounded.
“If you like it, then it’s fine.”
“But you don’t like it.”
“If it’s from you, I’ll like it.” Even if it’s a lowly na.
Shen Yan realized he was serious and restrained her laughter, “Forget it, it’s too unpleasant. Looking at your face, I just can’t say it.”
“Feng Shilie.”
“What?”
The man leaned in slightly, looking at her, he repeated, “Feng is the original surna, Shilie is the na you once gave .”
“Ah? Does it have any aning?” Shen Yan asked subconsciously.
The man simply looked at her silently for a long while, then shook his head, “You uttered these two characters, so you should be the one to ask.”
“…”
She knew nothing.
Forget it, it’s just a na, what significant aning could it have.
“Shilie is a good na. Then I’ll call you Lie Lie!”
The man had no objections.
“Hehe! Now I finally know your na. Then why did you say earlier you had no na? Were you playing with ?”
“I wasn’t playing with you.”
That was a na from a long, long ti ago.
He always liked it when she gave him a new na in each lifeti, never proactively asking for his na as she had this ti.
Is the cycle of endless reincarnation coming to an end?
The man’s gaze towards Shen Yan heated up.
Could they et again in the next life?
He began to worry.
Shen Yan, unaware of the turmoil in his heart, chewed on the na Feng Shilie and smiled, “Lie Lie, let’s go. Let’s see what my sister is up to.”
The man let her take his hand, his eyes smiling warmly.
