Cheng Cheng and the Cicada
Chapter 22 I Am Willing (Bonus Chapter for Alliance Master Tingxi Qianxi)
The bedroom lights had been off for a long time.
The Pomeranian, V, yawned in the living room.
It was strange.
Too strange.
For the past two days, its owner hadn't come home. The property manager of the complex had been coming regularly to feed it dog food.
Although they were always on time, the portions were generous, and it even took it for walks every day. Life was much happier than before!
But…
It still missed its owner after not seeing him for so long.
The house was empty all day, and it often felt lonely, missing the lively atmosphere of before.
For the past two nights, it had been going to the empty bedroom alone, sleeping in its专属小窝 (zhuānshǔ xiǎowō, exclusive little den) next to the double bed, spending an unusually quiet night.
Just now, telling you everything, could it be because…"The master is finally home!" "I'm willing."
After all, Huang Que knew everything about himself, which must also be because the虞兮 (Yú Xī) from Huang Que's timeline had told Huang Que in person.
"You two are already like that, and you're telling him this not to complain, but just stating the facts. I've always known you were hiding many things from me. For example…"
Zheng Shuo felt he would have died long ago if it weren't for Huang Que's time-traveling guidance and help.
"I'll sleep here tonight." "Can't say."
Yu Xi wasn't sleeping on the floor, wasn't competing with himself for space, why throw out his sleeping den!
The Pomeranian re-wrapped itself in the blanket, turned its head, looked at the moonlight seeping in through the curtain slits, and softly哼 (hēng, hummed) once:
"Besides, the question you gave me before was unclear. The question stem didn't…"
Not explaining many things clearly, under that circumstance, of course he was willing to enter the hibernation pod.
After waiting for a long time, until he was sleepy, the lights in the bedroom still didn't turn on. Afterwards, Yu Xi told the Pomeranian all the relevant information. Using the threads of moonlight seeping through the curtain slits, Guan Yidi looked at the Pomeranian's dim eyes in the dimly lit bedroom: Yu Xi also smiled slightly: looking at the fair neck just inches away: Yu Xi took a deep breath.
Even if it wasn't the Huang Que Pomeranian now, it was actually the same. "I didn't mean that at all." Yu Xi nodded: Guan Yidi looked at Yu Xi: "There's more happiness to come!"
"If that question about the hibernation pod, the question stem included preconditions like that you also have to hibernate, or hibernate for you…"
"Seriously, I underestimated you. I always thought you might never dare to do something like that to me."
As a result.
She was always behind him, in every timeline she was there, whenever he turned around she was there, whenever he looked for her she was there.
"Gao Wen, Chen Heping, these two top human geniuses have both said that a time-travel machine is impossible before 2234. The credibility is quite high." "Going back to the bedroom again." "I remember that." Yu Xi waved his hand:
In countless world lines that he had not yet set foot in, that he did not yet know of…
"Copenhagen."
She was such a woman.
"The next time we meet, just call me Huang Que." "It's like, completely reversed."
"According to the logic you're talking about, Huang Que should be Lin Xian's mother in a certain timeline. But because she had no other choice, she had to leave Guan Yidi, which is why Lin Xian became an orphan and was used by the enemy, trained as a spy." The Pomeranian was amused and couldn't help but smile: Guan Yidi leaned in a little closer:
"Are you sure you want to talk about movies with me at this time?" "Could it be someone you know?" "Patting its dog head." "My answer, of course, is…"
The Pomeranian V was very strange.
However, it was also possible that she knew through other means. Yu Xi already felt it didn't matter.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. What it never expected was…
"I believe you will succeed."
"You're an idiot, aren't you? You're really hopeless."
"Why must the time-travel machine be invented in 2234, that exact point in time? And it's not even a round number." "The order is all messed up." Pausing for a moment. The Pomeranian shook its head:
When that little boy came to sleep at home before, he didn't kick himself out of the bedroom." "Since you even know about Copenhagen, you must also know that I went there with a man."
The Huang Que at the time smiled gently, left those words, and left. That was impossible.
Anyway, after he leaves tomorrow, he can still go back to the bedroom to sleep. "So you've always seen me like this. I'm not that timid, am I?" Guan Yidi said softly:
Looking at Yu Xi with a somewhat worried expression:
"It's not a question of timidity, it's because I can clearly feel that you sometimes deliberately avoid me, dodge me, and hide things from me." Guan Yidi raised her eyebrows: However…
"It was you who took it from my hands back then. That was when the Ryn Cat doll had just produced a sample. You took that invitation and the Ryn Cat doll together from my hands."
Would Yu Xi still be able to come to his house every day? She raised her head.
The Pomeranian, leaning against him, listened attentively, pondering every word.
Double happiness!
""That invitation, which was both real and fake, was delivered to the X company's backstage by a woman, and that woman's name was…" "Too sleepy."
"At least for now, I have never thought about giving up. I have indeed fallen many times on this road of salvation, taken many detours, and made many mistakes. But, I have never thought about giving up. I will always persist."
Why did he isolate himself! Yu Xi shook his head:
"Red velvet card stock, sealed on the front with a wax seal, with seven small gold letters on the back."
Having said that.
Including his dreams, the origin of Huang Que, the Genius Club, the time-particle capture operation, the millennial stake, the real and fake Lin Xian…
"You probably think this is very inexplicable, but today, I really have a lot of things to explain to you. This really is a very, very, very long story…"
Yu Xi smiled softly:
"Ah, speaking of completely reversed, have you seen this movie? The Curious Case of Benjamin Button."
So, she transformed into Huang Que, traveling through time. Next to him, Yu Xi scratched his hair: "Humph."
Guan Yidi said softly:
"As long as you're willing to talk, I'm willing to listen."
"Do you remember, you once received an invitation from the Genius Club?"
"I don't know, to save all this, how many Huang Ques, how many Yu Xis, how many Guan Yidis have experienced. But I think that every victory will turn into experience and accumulation, so that the next attempt is closer to success." "I've said it before, I've never been someone who is afraid of death. From the moment you wanted to switch with me from the armed robber, to save me by driving a Bentley to jump over the overpass, I've already prepared myself for many things."
Guan Yidi closed her eyes, and finally said the thorn in her heart: Yu Xi only took that sentence as ridicule.
Although Huang Que's actual role was very limited, the tips and guidance she brought were indeed unusually crucial, almost reversing the entire situation. Acknowledging this fact:
"So…"
With her back against the headboard, she turned her head to look at Yu Xi:
It happily wagged its tail, feeling that it would definitely be a pleasant night. It could sleep in the middle of the two, or it could sleep next to the two. It liked this warm feeling. "Huang Que."
"Believe you."
How many things had Huang Que done for him? "Do you want to know who that man is?"
"Therefore, Huang Que is you from a certain timeline, and after you fought and died, you traveled through time back to our era, leading him to the right path."
*Puchi* 一一 (sound effect)
Thinking of waiting for the bedroom lights to turn on again, that pair of sneaky men and women, after finishing their business, should take him in.
The Pomeranian curled up its legs, kicked Yu Xi's calf, rolled its eyes at him: At this point.
Yu Xi also propped himself up from the bed.
"But one thing is certain, whether it is Huang Que or Lin Xian, they should have all ridden in a hibernation pod. After all, according to the information I have obtained so far, the earliest era in which time-travel machines were manufactured is 2234."
"Really?"
These stories sound unusually fantastical.
Guan Yidi's right hand on the blanket covered the back of Yu Xi's broad left hand, her fingers grasped Yu Xi's fingers, interlocking: "Indeed."
The Pomeranian recalled for a moment:
It was very happy, it didn't have to guard the empty room alone at night. "Humph."
Guan Yi has a completely new understanding of the pseudonym "Huang Que."
Yu Xi also told her about comets, astatine-339, and the groundbreaking astronomical discovery in 2077.
Tonight!
V V waited for a long time.
He turned his head.
V
Was the name Huang Que mocking himself for trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice used to lure it?
"It doesn't matter."
It hated Yu Xi, and also had a V agreement with Guan Yi…considering
He often came, so he would accommodate him for one night.
"Isn't there only geniuses at Apple Company, like the Genius Bar maintenance center? I treated that invitation as an advertisement for Apple Company, didn't pay attention to it, and just put it in a drawer."
After those two people entered the house, they went straight into the bedroom. Afterwards, Lin Xian took his sleeping nest to the living room:
She sat up holding a pillow in her arms.
"So, the real reason is that you have seen several future versions of me, all of whom have used the hibernation pod without hesitation, which is why you asked me." "Since it's a very long story, there must be a very early beginning, from when did all this start?"
