Faced with Qiao Ci’s question, Ye Xiaobai sincerely shook his head.
Qiao Ci: …How is he supposed to wake up?
Should she directly tell Ye Xiaobai his name was Ye Dabai? Ahem, Ye Bai?
In any case, Qiao Ci was not in a hurry. She had already temporarily sealed Ye Bai’s physical body, so it didn’t matter if he returned a little late.
“Do I have some special identity?” Ye Xiaobai furrowed his brows slightly, looking troubled, which only made him appear more pitiable.
Qiao Ci pursed her lips, suddenly feeling that staying here wasn’t such a good idea.
Seeing him but unable to have him was somewhat tormenting.
For her own selfish reasons, Qiao Ci decided to be honest with Ye Xiaobai.
“I’m not entirely sure of the specifics, only that you go to various small worlds to experience life. As for your identity, you are the younger brother of the director of a high-level plane’s Quick Transmigration Bureau.”
After saying this long string of information, Qiao Ci paused, then continued, “Your name is Ye Bai, and your brother’s name is Ye Xuan. You connect to various small worlds through a system similar to a game pod. As for how to return, it depends on whether you want to go back yourself.”
Qiao Ci thought for a moment, wondering if there was anything else she hadn’t said.
It seemed not.
In fact, she could directly take Ye Xiaobai’s soul back. However, she respected his wishes. If he didn’t want to return, it was fine; she could still guarantee his safety, both body and soul. kuAiδugg
“Are you, in that world?” Ye Xiaobai hesitantly looked at Qiao Ci, asking tentatively.
“I am not in that world,” Qiao Ci shook her head. She had only descended into that higher plane as a soul; her body was not there.
“Then I’m not going back!” Ye Xiaobai said decisively. “Wherever you are, I will be. If I can meet you in every world, I am willing to be reborn countless times, as long as I am with you in the end, no matter what.”
Qiao Ci stroked his head. Ye Xiaobai willingly brought his head closer to her hand, nuzzling affectionately.
Qiao Ci’s expression was blank, but inside, she was wailing.
This was going to kill her.
Staying in this world wasn’t an option; she wanted to eat meat!
Noticing Qiao Ci’s slightly struggling expression, Ye Xiaobai quickly asked with concern, “What’s wrong? Why the look on your face?”
Qiao Ci hesitated for a moment, then replied with some frustration, “In this world, we can’t consummate our marriage…”
Feeling she was being too eager, Qiao Ci quickly explained, “I was afraid you…”
Ye Xiaobai immediately shook his head like a rattle drum, repeatedly denying, “I’m not afraid, I can endure! As long as I’m with you, even if I have to become a eunuch, I’ll be happy. Ah Ci, I love you the most, you mustn’t overthink things.”
!!!
Qiao Ci: …I suspect he’s subtly referring to me, ahem.
Finally, after a period of discussion, Ye Xiaobai decided to return to the real world.
He saw Lou Zui Ren marry his wife and live a happy life in this world, and then he followed Qiao Ci back.
Before feeling his soul being drawn from his body, Ye Xiaobai looked at Qiao Ci expectantly, “Ah Ci, you won’t lie to me, will you? When I get back, you won’t actually be in that world, will you?”
He hadn’t recovered Ye Bai’s memories yet and felt uncertain about the future. Even though he knew Qiao Ci wouldn’t lie to him, never would, he still wanted to confirm.
“You can always trust me,” Qiao Ci said gently, stroking his dark hair one last time.
Ye Xiaobai slowly closed his eyes, surrendering his entire being to Qiao Ci’s control.

Ye Xuan watched Ye Bai’s body, which hadn’t eaten or drunk for a week and received no nutritional fluids, and was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Previously, Ye Bai’s body in the holographic pod would regularly replenish the nutrients it needed. The mysterious girl had placed his brother on the bed and wouldn’t let him near. Was she planning to starve his brother to death?
Ye Xuan had tried countless methods to deliver nutrients to his brother, and he had even gathered several elite quick transmigration players, but they were all helpless.
Ye Xuan had even dug through the floor beneath the room, reaching the bed’s base, but he was still blocked by an invisible barrier.
It could be said that if Ye Bai hadn’t been able to breathe steadily and maintain a ruddy complexion while not eating or drinking, Ye Xuan would have torn down the entire house.
At this moment, there were still many people in Ye Bai’s room.
Ye Xuan had asked his private family doctor, Vince, to stay there 24 hours a day to monitor Ye Bai’s health condition.
Vince was an excellent doctor, and his gold-rimmed glasses gave him a scholarly yet slightly sinister appearance.
Normally, he could handle almost all patients with ease, but this time, he was stumped.
As the saying goes, observation, listening, questioning, and palpation; he could only do the first one now. If it weren’t for the fact that the young master’s chest was still rising and falling, he would have thought the young master was a lifelike porcelain doll.
After all, no normal person could endure a week without eating or drinking, let alone someone who could die at any moment.
“How is my brother’s condition today?” Ye Xuan stared intently at the doctor, afraid of missing even the slightest piece of information.
The doctor: …Here he comes again. Does he ask eight hundred times a day? Isn’t he annoyed?
“On the surface, everything appears to be fine.” The doctor maintained a professional smile.
As for internally, he had no idea.
“And internally? Can you tell anything?” Ye Xuan pressed further.
The doctor smiled outwardly, but inwardly cursed, knowing this question would come.
“Visually, I can’t see anything. However, the young master’s breathing is stable, so there should be no major issues.”
“Then…” Ye Xuan was about to ask something else when.
He saw the doctor’s eyes widen with surprise and joy, “It moved, it moved! I just saw my young master’s finger move!”
Ye Xuan quickly turned his gaze to his brother’s hand, but found nothing.
He then shifted his gaze back to Ye Bai’s face. Ye Bai’s raven-like eyelashes trembled slightly.
Ye Xuan jumped up excitedly, completely disregarding his usual composed demeanor. He impulsively hugged the family doctor and exclaimed, “It moved, it really moved! Is my brother waking up?”
The doctor paid no mind to the two grown men embracing, holding Ye Xuan tightly, both looking at Ye Bai with immense anticipation, afraid of missing his awakening.
A moment later, Ye Bai slowly opened his eyes. Upon seeing the white ceiling above, a flicker of confusion crossed his eyes.
Soon, this confusion was replaced by pain.
Memories that had been sealed for a long time surged into his brain:
His name was Ye Bai, the young master of the Ye family. He had been orphaned from a young age and had an older brother named Ye Xuan.
Since childhood, his brother had been too busy with the Quick Transmigration Bureau to play with him, his younger brother.
He was very lonely.
Undoubtedly, he was also a rare genius.
He developed a Quick Transmigration system himself, then sealed his memories, allowing his soul to experience different lives and deaths, joys and sorrows, perhaps hoping to gain a greater perspective upon his return.
