Chapter 628: 12.30 Unknown Star - Modern ABO World: Reconciliation
After the conversation between Ye Yuyan and Hei Anjing, the latter finally brought them back to reality. Ye Yuyan opened his eyes and saw that he was back in his room and Hei Anjing had once again floated like a ghost inside the room. Obviously, just got out of his body.
Ye Yuyan checked the time on his phone placed on the side table and noticed only half an hour had pa.s.sed in reality. As if noticing what he is confused about, Hei Anjing cleared his confusion.
Hei Anjing spoke, "There is no exact time duration inside one's body. You can even stay a lifetime in that place and wake up in reality with only a few days pa.s.sing. The dream realm is another dimension that you mortals could hardly have control over. Plus, this domain is under the authority of my cousin so even I have no complete control over it. This is a normal outcome."
"I will talk to Yu'er tonight. Do you think it's okay?" asked Ye Yuyan.
Hei Anjing replied, "Much better. I, System Yue, and System Yang would go next door. Go clear up things with Yuhua. A piece of advice. You and Yuhua should have already received the skill 'Telepathy' I gave before. It can be used as long as you think deeply about what you want to convey. This includes memories or things you've experienced, heard, or seen. Good luck~"
Once saying his part, Hei Anuing disappeared in thin air. Ye Yuyan could no longer see him. He who was left behind in the room was still a bit reluctant to talk to Hei Yuhua especially now that he got back all his memories. The scenes where he treated Hei Yuhua so badly in that timeline made him feel unworthy of loving him. But Hei Anjing says that the best way to solve their situation is, to be honest, and open up his heart wholeheartedly to the latter.
Ye Yuyan laid back down on his bed and looked at the ceiling of his room. His bedroom was so silent as the G.o.d called Hei Anjing disappeared from it. He silently watches above his head thinking of ways or how he should explain things to Hei Yuhua.
He thought of many ways in doing so but in the end, he chose to do none and just honestly tell Hei Yuhua his real feelings. As for whether the results will end up good or not, he was willing to accept anything and in the end, he would protect Hei Yuhua regardless of what the latter thinks.
Ye Yuyan mumbled as he covered his eyes with his arm, "Let's confess everything honestly. As for whatever happens I will protect Yu'er no matter what."
On the other hand, in Hei Yuhua's room.
Hei Yuhua was lying on his bed hugging a pillow. His eyes would always dart at the room of his room uneasily. He regretted what he did just now. Not the decision to allow Ye Yuyan to get back his memories but instead, the way he had shown his fear and loneliness when he learned about the situation, and then he had seen the sadness and confusion on Ye Yuyan's face when he suddenly took off. At that time, Ye Yuyan looks like he regrets asking about his memories.
"I didn't mean to make him sad. I was just... I'm afraid." mumbled Hei Yuhua.
Then suddenly he heard soft knocks on his door.
Knock. Knock.
Hei Yuhua was startled and tried to bury himself under the blanket when he heard the knock. He didn't answer or reply to anything from the man who was knocking. The second time, the soft knocking was heard from the door.
Knock. Knock.
This time a low yet careful voice was heard opposite the closed door. It was the voice of Ye Yuyan as he expected.
Ye Yuyan calls softly, "Yu'er?"
Hei Yuhua didn't reply but listened quietly.
"I know you don't want to see me right now but I wanted to say something to you. I will not enter the room but please at least listen to me," said Yu Yuyan beyond the door of Hei Yuhua's room.
Ye Yuyan only received a silent response but this didn't put his heart down and decided to be honest with Hei Yuhua as he planned.
"Yu'er, I'm sorry."
"I know that the me in that timeline is an a.s.shole. I've misunderstood everything about you and harmed you unconditionally."
"But please, believe me, my anger at that time is because I thought you'd killed Ye Huahua. I also didn't know that she is our daughter and the man I've slept that night with is you. All those times I've been looking for the man in that hotel but no matter how many resources I've used I couldn't find you at all. I've only learned that it was you, that day when you had given me custody of our daughter."
"Yu'er, I love you. I love you so so much. I do not care for the riches or the destiny bestowed on me by heaven. I only want you and our daughter. I've hurt you a lot before. I know. I will not go to ask you to forgive me. It is your right not to do so."
"I will also not ask you to stay by my side. If my presence makes you uncomfortable, I will leave, okay. Stay in this place. I will give you this building so you can live here freely. But please don't get angry if you see me next time. I just... wanted to protect you even if I am no longer by your side."
"Yu'er, you deserve to be happy. Live well from now on," said Ye Yuyan.
Hei Yuhua felt the tears strolling down his face. He never knew about Ye Yuyan's feelings for him. All along he thought that he had hated him because he is Hei Yuhua. But to think it was because of the misunderstandings thanks to the background of the role he had played. He has chosen the role as the youngest serial psychopathic killer because it fits the bill those in the Red Poppy Syndicate wanted him to portray as.
Even though it was to protect their daughter, Hei Yuhua had never cleared their name as he thought that even if he did so, Ye Yuyan at that time would never believe him anyway. But Ye Yuyan mentioned that it was because he thought it was him who killed Ye Huahua that Ye Yuyan's hatred for him was so deep.
On the other hand, he thought that Ye Yuyan hated him because of that night at the hotel. He had always thought that Ye Yuyan knew that it was him, the one who slept with him that night and hated him for being precocious.
But just now, he just learned he was wrong all this time. Ye Yuyan was looking for the man who slept with him that night because he wanted to take responsibility for him and their daughter, Ye Huahua. He was wrong all this time. They both misunderstood each other. Thinking of those years they had wasted because of a misunderstanding, Hei Yuhua couldn't help but hate those who told him not to approach Ye Yuyan and explain things.
Hei Yuhua still remembered that night at the hotel when he wanted to meet Ye Yuyan a few days after that day. At that time he was blocked by someone he never expected by the door. It was an inspector that worked under Ye Yuyan. His name is Yi Rouya.
[A/n: Yi Rouya is the protagonist shou in the world plot.]
Ye Yuyan calls once again, "Yu'er, are you there. I'll leave now."
Once Hei Yuhua heard the fading footsteps of Ye Yuyan he stood up in a hurry and fell loudly to the ground.
BANG!The loud sound of something falling was also heard by Ye Yuyan from outside the door who paused his step in panic.
OW!
Ye Yuyan panicked and entered the room even without permission.
"Yu'er, are you alright!? I heard a loud... sound?"
His voice paused when he saw the wiggling coc.o.o.n on the floor. Hei Yuhua had covered himself firmly with a blanket so when he suddenly stood up a few moments ago he tripped as expected and the blanket twisted even more around his body that he couldn't even remove it on his own.
He fell face first and barely managed to dodge with his whole body restrained by the blanket. Now his forehead is bare, his fall is deep red and almost purple. There is even a swollen one that almost looks like a horn growing on it.
Hei Yuhua's eyes were pooling with tears and his face was distorted obviously in pain. Under Ye Yuyan's eyes, he looks like a pitiful and delicate yet adorable little baby.
Ye Yuyan kneeled down and helped him up carefully while even blowing at his forehead. He helped him out of the blanket and carried him back to the bed. Hei Yuhua was staring at Ye Yuyan the whole time, his tears hanging in the corner of his eyes.
Gently wiping Hei Yuhua's tears with his long sleeves, Ye Yuyan asked worriedly, "Yu'er, are you okay? Your forehead is swollen, let me get the cooling spray. Wait for me here."
But before even Ye Yuyan could take a step his s.h.i.+rt was grabbed by Hei Yuhua. He turned around and saw Hei Yuhua staring at him directly in his eyes. This time his silver eyes are not showing fear but instead, he could feel Hei Yuhua's feelings of love for him.
With a bit of a m.u.f.fled voice, Hei Yuhua said, "D-Don't leave. Just live here with me. A'Yan don't leave me again." his tears once again fell.
Hei Yuhua every time he saw Ye Yuyan's back figure would recall the days in their past life when Hei Yuhua would be constantly ignored by Ye Yuyan. Even if he is injured or ill, Ye Yuyan never turns back to look at him.
But this time is different, just seeing his tears Ye Yuyan would feel his heart burning. His body moves first before his mind. He turned around and hugged Hei Yuhua as both of them fell onto the bed. Ye Yuyan tightly embraced his beloved and coaxed him to stop crying. Kissing his forehead, his eyes, cheeks, nose, and lips.
"Don't cry, Yu'er. I won't leave. As long as you want me to stay, I will always be by your side." said Ye Yuyan.
"AAAHH! it hurts!"
Hei Yuhua shrieks when Ye Yuyan kisses his forehead. The pain from his big b.u.mp was too painful when touched.
Ye Yuyan said, "Sorry! Let me get the cooling spray really quick." He stood up in a flash and ran out of the room with a bang. The door was pushed with such great force that it was almost broken but Ye Yuyan.
It only took a few minutes for Ye Yuyan to come back. Hei Yuhua, who saw no one in the living, remembered that Lord Hei, System Yue, and System Yang were all gone. He couldn't see them anywhere. So when Ye Yuyan was treating his forehead he asked him where the rest had gone.
Hei Yuhua asked, "A'Yan, where are Lord Hei, Yue and Yang?"
"Lord Hei grabbed them and went next door to meet Lou Wei and Yun Jie," answered Ye Yuyan. "Lord Hei wanted to give us s.p.a.ce and privacy. He was also the one who told me to honestly say my true feelings and thoughts to you."
Hei Yuhua said, "Lord Hei is indeed kind. Though he would sometimes treat us as entertainment, I guess this is why he is indeed still a G.o.d."
"He is a G.o.d for real. But I haven't met the one sleeping inside me. When Lord Hei checked just now it seems that the G.o.d inside is still asleep." said Ye Yuyan.
Hei Yuhua commented, "Since he is a G.o.d that could make Lord Hei love him so much he must also be amazing. You should ask for a greater reward for allowing him to rest inside you."
"I will listen to you, Yu'er," said Ye Yuyan with a smile.
Hei Yuhua once again remembered Yi Rouya from their previous life. He told Ye Yuyan what happened when he met Yi Rouya who blocked him by the door and prevented him from seeing him. It was because of that day that Ye Yuyan hated him for accidentally sleeping with him that night at the hotel.
Ye Yuyan on the other hand was surprised to hear what Hei Yuhua told him. Yi Rouya only dropped by his condo once. But at that time his father and Lou Wei were also there. His father told him that Yi Rouya pestered them to allow him to meet him. But when he came with them as an extra guest. He never approached Ye Yuyan and instead guards the door.
At that time Ye Yuyan was busy talking to his father about the omega he wanted to take responsibility for and was asking him for help while Lou Wei was there to report to him about a new case. But Yi Rouya never told him someone drops by wanting to visit him.
Thinking about this, Ye Yuyan, who got back his memories, recalled this scene. He didn't think much about it even though he thought that this man called Yi Rouya was weird. If not because his father is a comrade of his father, he wouldn't even welcome his stranger in his condo.
Hei Yuhua said, "Did he come over just to stop me on purpose?"
"This... must be the case but... How did he know that you are coming over?" said Ye Yuyan.
Hei Yuhua also thought this situation was very weird but after learning about the world plot, characters and story. He knew that things aren't simple, especially since Yi Rouya is the chosen Protagonist Shou of their world.
"I think it is better to ask Lord Hei about this. Plus, we need to talk about the mission given to us by Yue and Yang," said Hei Yuhua.
Ye Yuyan said, "My missions are simple daily interactions with you as the target. Eating together, cooking for you, serving you, and going on dates. These are my missions. How about you, Yu'er? What kind of missions do you have?"
Hei Yuhua was so embarra.s.sed when he heard how simple Ye Yuyan's missions are while he is a total embarra.s.sment. He didn't even notice his face and ears turning crimson in shyness.
'What the h.e.l.l? How come A'Yan's missions are too easy!? While I have to eat my embarra.s.sments every time I try to do my mission. Ahh! A'Yan can't know or I would be bullied by this bad man. Hmph!' Thoughts of Hei Yuhua while glaring and pouting at Ye Yuyan.
Bewildered as he is, Ye Yuyan couldn't understand why his future wife is p.i.s.sed right now. Aren't they just talking about what mission they have?
"Yu'er, what's wrong? Did I do something wrong?" asked Ye Yuyan but only a pouting Hei Anjing responded to him with a snort.
