"U—Um… Ronghui, where do you want to go today?"
"Where do I want to go?" Mu Ronghui looked at Yunyu and smiled. "I should be the one asking. Where did you go, Li Yunyu?"
Bai Yunyu's heart skipped a beat once he heard that surna, Li Yunyu, not Bai Yunyu. Because Li Yunyu was his na in World 2.
Yunyu darted his eyes at Ronghui. He thought Ronghui might've accidentally spelled the wrong surna. But Bai and Li were completely different surnas, so…
"Why did you call Li Yunyu?"
"Hm… I'm not sure either. It's just more comfortable and familiar to ," Ronghui replied. He sighed and continued driving. "Honestly, if I told you the truth, I doubt that you will believe ."
"… what truth?"
"About my realistic, episodic dream," Ronghui's eyes looked up for a second as if he was trying to rember stuff. "I've had a long, realistic, and episodic dream about you, about us, Li Yunyu. At first, I thought I just had a weird nightmare that kept replaying over and over, and in that dream, there is always you and another man that happened to be my half-brother."
"We were involved in a bitter love triangle, and in the end, my half-brother is the one who won you over. I cannot accept my loss. I refuse to lose you. That's why, during your first night with my half-brother, I went in with a gun, intending to kill him and kidnap you."
"But in the end, you're the one who tried to stop and accidentally shot yourself. I was overco with grief that I reported myself to the police. I admitted that I had shot you and got jailed."
"My half-brother, your spouse, bailed out with his influence because you told him to take care of after you were gone."
"And after that, my half-brother and I lived a fulfilling but empty life. Because we were both unmarried until our death. I refused to marry because I still love and will love you forever, Li Yunyu. And my half-brother also had the sa thought as . This dream occurred over and over, like a movie in a constant replay, and I just cannot ignore it anymore."
"The mont I t you again, all that mory poured in my head, and I cannot ignore you. Li Yunyu…"
…
That dream was absolutely accurate, but Yunyu was unsure that Yang Ronghui reported himself in the end and got jailed. He really thought that Yang Ronghui would run away and start life anew, probably marrying another man or woman. So did Zhou Junze. Yunyu thought that Junze would move on and marry soone else instead.
But if that was the end, with them staying unmarried until their deaths… it was painful to even hear.
[I never know what happened after I left the world before. What happened with those male leads that I left, and all the love and mory lingered in that world.]
[Turns out, they are still keeping in their hearts…]
Yunyu felt guilty. Honestly, he was still very inexperienced in his early transmigration worlds. He made a lot of ss back then. Though he wasn't any better, as the world progressed, at least he had so character developnt.
He went from immature hoe to slightly mature hoe. Still a hoe nonetheless.
"I'm sorry…." Yunyu apologized for what he did. But Mu Ronghui chuckled in response.
"No need to apologize, Yunyu. It's just a dream after all, but my feeling, this heart is truth. I want you to stay by my side. I want to do everything that my dream version cannot."
Bai Yunyu knew that it wasn't a dream at all. But maybe this Mu Ronghui was basically the incarnation of Yang Ronghui from that world.
"I… I don't know how to answer this…." Bai Yunyu said truthfully. He didn't know what he should say next. Because he was sure that he couldn't accept Ronghui because his love in this world, his real world, was only for Han Ye.
But at the sa ti, he wanted to compensate for all the pain he inflicted on Mu Ronghui because he knew it must've been damn traumatizing and painful.
"What do you an you don't know?"
"As in…. I don't know what you want to do. Do you want to date you?" Yunyu asked. "But I can't…."
"You can't?"
"My love… has been reserved in this world. I cannot betray my loved one in this world, Ronghui…."
Whenever Yunyu rembered about Han Ye, he just couldn't help but pour all of his love to that person, despite Han Ye treating him like trash.
Mu Ronghui clenched his grip on the steering wheel. He wouldn't lie that he had reckless thoughts when he heard Yunyu's answer.
Maybe he was really the past incarnation of that Ronghui because he also got there sa recklessness that man nad Yang Ronghui.
He wanted to just step on the gas and then crash this car to a cliff or sothing, so he could die with his loved one, forever stayed together… in a bloody way.
But when he saw the pooling tears in Yunyu's eyes, the anger in his heart was washed away, "Yunyu?"
"A—Ah, I'm sorry…." Yunyu wiped the pooling tears in his eyes. He didn't want to cry in front of Ronghui. But when he saw the anger in Ronghui's eyes, he knew he would replay the sa stuff he did in World 2.
This recklessness, this crazy and dangerous love… was definitely Yang Ronghui.
He t with the sa Ronghui after countless years, "Ronghui, are you mad at ?"
Mad?
Mu Ronghui tried to think about his dream. He could definitely feel Yang Ronghui's rage when he saw Li Yunyu and Zhou Junze together.
But at the sa ti, he also felt regret. He regretted his own choice. If only he wasn't so hasty about leaving Yunyu with Zhou Junze, then he would be able to get Yunyu back.
Yang Ronghui, in the dream, had realized that Zhou Junze had interfered and played with both of them. His intention was clear, to snatch Yunyu to be his own.
Even though Li Yunyu obviously liked Yang Ronghui more, Li Yunyu still said that Yang Ronghui was his first love even in his dying breath.
It was Ronghui who got too reckless and didn't listen to what Li Yunyu said.
He was the idiot one.
Mu Ronghui could feel the bottled-up emotion of Yang Ronghui in his heart, the feeling of rage, regret, and jealousy.
He finally stopped the car on the side.
"Ronghui?"
"Yunyu, may I uttered sothing that Yang Ronghui, the man in my dream, has been bottling up in his heart until his death?" Mu Ronghui asked.
But before Yunyu could even reply, Mu Ronghui suddenly grabbed his shoulder and kissed Yunyu deeply.
It was deep, full of emotion, different from Huang Jinren's.
Maybe because Huang Jinren was Huang Shu from World 12. Although they couldn't have their happy marriage with their kid for so long, at least Huang Shu and Bai Yunyu of that world ended their story happily.
Unlike Mu Ronghui… and many more…
