Chapter 45: 3.4 Second Small Star – Lingering Feelings
Starlight Company
COO [Chief Operations Officers]'s office.
ng Lan's office within the company. Staying in the company under the pretense of overti, this man with kind features, dark brunette and a pair of blue eyes behind a pair of spectacles, was seated within the office and just finished talking on the phone.
After hearing the bad news about his scheming failed, the plan was for his elder brother to get his innocence destroyed with those hired second generation young masters and young miss ended up in a live stream drug scandal instead.
To avoid the plan being traced back at him, he ordered his n to silence that group of useless things and wanted to call that Lord of Underworld asking for another favor only for his call to be declined boldly.
Throwing his phone on the table with an ugly expression on his face, "Why? Why is he ignoring my calls!?" said ng Lan in anger. "Isn't he's supposed to be interested in !? Why is Ye Baiyu ignoring
now!? This is not like what it is before!"
It seems Ye Baiyu used his boss title as Underworld's Lord to pursue this Protagonist Shou, in the original story. Thought because of what happened in that bar and when his boss learned it was him to allow that group of pests to reserve a special private room to do a bad deed against his boss's little beloved devil that he got punished for it.
Now Ye Baiyu has no ti to waste on ng Lan as his life will be in danger if he doesn't clean up the ss left by the ng brothers. The eldest caused a drugged Sex Party in the bar owned by his boss while the youngest ordered soone to silence that group of youngsters intending to push the bla on the forr. Both pairs of siblings seem to be abnormal in their ways.
Ye Baiyu's task is to prevent any harm falling towards the eldest which his own demon boss seems to have fallen with. All works fell on him like always. What he didn't know is that because he lied to soone about being the underworld lord that his future will be more chaotic when they've t again. A tragic event which will be caused by his boss and another from a man whom he shouldn't have lied to.
ng Lan continues to throw tantrums without him knowing that his opened laptop placed on his table had his current state recorded by his own laptop's cara. Recording and streaming his current situation live to ng Anya's tablet. In that half an hour of waiting in the bar, ng Anya using the laptop he borrowed created a program virus which invaded the personal gadgets of ng Lan, ng Huang, Cao Junzi, Ye Baiyu and Mo Yijun. All the nad characters of this world.
Without only a few minutes ng Anya was able to hack into their personal accounts and kept them under surveillance of his program virus. Giving the letter a live broadcast of these people's daily life. Hacking and Programming are skills that Hei Anjing have from his original world. He's skills when it cos to hacking and programming are heavenly defying and was an infamous figure in the virtual world of his original world.
So even without his system, in modern worlds, he is invincible. If not for him being lazy and having a cheat system, he would never waste his ti playing around with the simulated world because that place is so boring for him as he can only be considered God in that realm.
At the mont everything was recorded, and nothing was watched yet as this little devil is currently taking his nap.
Evening had long descended when ng Anya arrived at the ng Palace. as he ordered upon their arrival Lin Xia woke him up from his sleep.
Waiting outside the car which parked in front of the Mansion's entrance, "My Lord, we are here." Said Lin Xia who has a coat prepared for his young master.
Lazily opening his eyes when he heard Lin Xia waking him up from his slumber, ng Anya covered up his yawn before going out of the car. As soon as he got out of the car, Lin Xia gently draped a black coat over his shoulders in fear that his young master would feel cold.
"We're ho huh. Is my dad and ng Lan ho?" asked ng Anya while looking at the brightened indoors of the huge mansion before him.
"I was told that only your father is ho." Replied Lin Xia.
The mansion had an old ancient Chinese design mixed with slight modern architecture. It has a huge courtyard with a rose garden and a pond. When ng Anya saw it, his eyes stopped but wondered in the garden of full bloom red roses. The flowers were huge and well cared. Adding up the yellowish incandescent lights of the light post scattered with the garden gave the place of warm feelings. Unconsciously his body moves forwards intending to walk towards the huge rose garden before him. His long, slender legs walk towards it to have a closer look.
From the latter worlds' he conquered, ng Anya used to love taking his walk within flower gardens, such huge and nurous full bloom roses caught his attention.
The reason for this is his husband. Because of the first world where his husband likes to give him flowers that he ended liking it instead. Among the flowers, he loves roses the most, especially black ones. He used to spend his ti walking around the floral garden with his husband in the first world.
"My Lord?" Lin Xia called but still followed after his young master to the rose garden.
This rose garden is the one nto the mother left for the original ng Anya, but the original is a fake hedonist, born genius and a rational type young master that has zero interest in flowers. Within the mansion the most expensive and precious thing that the ng Clan owned is this huge garden of Juliet roses. Juliet roses are the most expensive type of rose in the world especially for fully cultivated ones like this.
When ng Anya's eye laid on it, he instantly knew the importance and aning of this rose garden.
Red Juliet roses, it ans undeniable and passionate love but at the sa ti it has the aning of heartfelt regret and sorrow. Seeing that the forr owner of the garden had died early before ng Anya completely imprinted her existence in his life, the aning of this rose garden must be the latter.
ng Anya's mother died when he was young. Within the rose garden only ng Anya entered as the others were forbidden to enter the place. Lin Xia and the servants who ca to welco them, stood by the entrance looking over their young lord in the distance. In the mansion the only people who can enter the garden can be counted by hand. The Master of the house, ng Huang, his beloved son, ng Anya and lastly few loyal and certified gardeners who maintain the garden.
Even ng Lan is not allowed to enter this precious place, after all this garden is the only place that has the mories of the deceased wife of ng Huang. For the first ti in his life, ng Anya seems to feel lingering emotions of the original owner of his body. The original ng Anya. He walks around the garden with tender steps afraid of destroying even a single branch of the roses.
ng Anya doesn't even dare to touch even a single flower as he walks towards the center of the garden. At the middle of the garden a pure white jade tomb stone laid on the ground, surrounded with the largest bunch of crimson roses. On the tombstone crave the following words,
'Here rests the most beloved wife and the best mother of all. The most beautiful Rose Queen. Xue iyue.'
After reading the contents on the tombstone, the remaining emotions of original ng Anya took over Hei Anjing's current body. He felt imnse pain gripping his heart as he felt endless regret and remorse.
The mont he saw the na Xue iyue, ng Anya's tears can only fall unconditionally without his permission.
Looking slightly bewildered, ng Anya reached out to touch his face only to feel warm tears strolling down his cheeks. These are not his tears. These are the original ng Anya's tears of regret.
"This… hm~ I see. These are (that child's)… tears. I miss you, mom." ng Anya muttered in silence while whispering the lingering words the original ng Anya wasn't able to say when he was still alive. His eyes remain on that white tombstone under his feet.
Without him knowing behind him his father ng Huang together with a man with imposing aura arrived. ng Anya's arrival was inford right away by the servants waiting for his arrival. When the master of the house was inford that the young master had gone to the rose garden, ng Huang couldn't believe what he heard. This old man imdiately ran off to where his son is, even forgetting to tell the man who followed him over that he couldn't enter the garden.
ng Huang knows his darling son's hate of flowery scent and always avoids this garden his mother left for him. So, when he saw his son standing in front of his wife's tombstone surrounded by roses, he couldn't believe what he saw and stood stiffly not far from his son. Quietly watching his son at a certain distance but he is still able to hear his words.
Not wanting to destroy the picturesque scene before them, ng Huang even stops Lin Xia from informing ng Anya of his arrival. Even forgetting the man who followed him over and stood beside him. He didn't even notice this man's change of expression the mont he saw his son.
They stare at ng Anya as he spoke in air as if his mother were in front of him listening. They can only keep silent when they see him crying.
"Mom, watch
there as I will destroy all those rotten things that want to harm us. I will protect Dad for you. So, wait for us to co over okay?" said ng Anya as he speaks the words of regret the original ng Anya left in his heart. This was his task and his promise to the original who gave his body away from him to take over. This in exchange of his wishes and regrets being fulfilled.
