"Me too, me too. Daddy, Lian 'er misses you too. Lian' er also has a lot to say to you."
You Lian 'er did not want to be outdone. She ignored Sha Feifei's angry glare and nestled in Rui's arms, not wanting to get up. Her small hands tightly hugged his arm, refusing to let go.
Chu Rui sighed. He did not know why he could not spit out the harsh words that were on the tip of his tongue. One was his "former" lover, and the other was his adopted daughter who was secretly in love with him. With two such charming women in his arms, as a very, very normal man, and also because of his physique, Rui really couldn't hold it in any longer.
"I am not You Tianling. You should wake up from your dreams!"
The warmth on his face was gone, and Rui's face once again returned to its usual cold expression. That calm sentence was like thunder to Bei Feifei and You Li-er's ears. It had infinite destructive power.
"No, you are clearly him. You are clearly his!"
Bei Feifei could not accept it. She had been looking forward to it for so many years, but it had just given her hope. However, the man she was looking forward to had personally and cruelly extinguished the fire of hope. She could not accept it at all. She had been looking forward to that scene for so long, but it was like a flower in the mirror. How cruel was that? If this man's tone, expression, and the warmth in his eyes were not there, and if he had become this cold and indifferent, how could she bear it?
Bei Feifei was in a state of madness. You Li-er did not say anything, but tears streamed down her face. She looked heartbroken.
Affected by You Tianling's memory, Bei Feifei's tear-stained face made him feel an inexplicable heartache. However, he did not soften his heart at all. If he continued to be indecisive, there would be more trouble in the future. It was better to be cruel than to give someone hope and then destroy it in the end. Extinguishing all hope now was a kind of mercy. Perhaps some people needed to be lied to. Sometimes, it was better to let someone live in a dream. However, Chu Rui, who pursued extreme realism, did not agree with this. In the end, people had to face reality. You can escape for a while, but you can't escape forever.
"It's true that You Tianling was my previous incarnation, and I've also awakened a portion of his memories under the guidance of the Underworld Origin Qi. I remember all the things that happened to all of you. However, I am Chu Rui, not You Tianling. I've said this many times. You Tianling is already dead. The current me is another life, and I am a different person. Perhaps our appearances are similar, our auras are the same, and we are extremely similar. But in reality, he is him and I am me. We are different. "
Chu Rui cruelly and mercilessly ignored their tearful pleas for him to deceive them. Instead, he ruthlessly stabbed them again. Especially the word "all of you" in the sentence "bits and pieces of you". He enunciated it very clearly, heavily, and deeply.
That's right, it's you, not us! It's the memories of you and You Tianling, the bits and pieces of you and You Tianling, not me. I'm just a passerby. Your story is just like a movie I've watched. Perhaps the memories are still fresh, but I've only watched and not personally experienced them.
"Alright, can you tell me how to save you now?"
Chu Rui let go of Bei Feifei and You Li-er and took two steps back. Looking at Bei Feifei, who was heartbroken but had now returned to reality, quietly weeping instead of screaming at the top of her lungs, he asked with a cold face.
"Have you forgotten what You Tianling said when you parted ways with him? He told you to live well. Could it be that you can ignore his final wish? "
Seeing that Bei Feifei was silently crying and not replying, Chu Rui couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Due to various reasons, this girl didn't have much time left. If this continued, it wouldn't take long for her curse to break out. Coupled with her current situation of wanting to die, there was basically no hope for her. Even though he wasn't You Tianling, he was still affected to a certain extent. His temperament was fine, but he couldn't completely ignore Bei Feifei, You Tianling's most beloved woman, who was also his strongest obsession.
"It seems that you've made up your mind. Since that's the case, I won't stop you. Life is your own. You have the right to choose whether you want it or not. Since you want to die so badly, I won't force you. In that case, there's no need for You Tianling's memories. They exist because of you. To me, they're not of much use. Instead, they'll affect my nature. If you die, I can also give up all of You Tianling's memories. This will be beneficial to both of us. "
Chu Rui's words were cruel and heartless. There was nothing eternal in this world, except for memories. Whether it was the separation of two places or the separation of life and death, only memories could warm people's hearts. Physically, a person could lose everything, but spiritually, in the world of memories, it was impossible. No matter how poor or desolate the spiritual world was, everyone had a precious memory that no one else could touch. To Bei Feifei, her memories with You Tianling were her only and most precious treasure.
"No, don't!"
Bei Feifei's face was already ashen. When she heard Chu Rui's words, she immediately panicked and was terrified. She was afraid. She was afraid that the only thing that could reflect You Tianling would no longer exist. Without You Tianling's memories, he would really be Chu Rui. He would be the cold and ignorant Chu Rui who was a complete stranger except for his face. He wouldn't be the man who looked so much like You Tianling now.
"Since you don't want to, then tell me how to save you."
Chu Rui raised his eyebrows and immediately rebuked her. He didn't care whether Bei Feifei was the princess of the Yao Clan or his lover from his previous life. His patience was reaching its limit.
"This …"
Bei Feifei's face suddenly turned red. Her gaze became evasive and she didn't look straight at Chu Rui like before.
"Hmm?"
This situation made Rui angry, and a nasal sound scared Sha Feifei into a panic.
"The way to save me is to, to, to use your pure Yang energy and righteous qi …" Bei Feifei hurriedly said.
Her voice became softer and softer as she spoke. In the end, it was almost inaudible. If not for Chu Rui's exceptional hearing, he wouldn't have heard what this princess of the Yao Clan was saying.
