âIâm not joking. He took advantage of the situation. If he hadnât been unconscious, I wouldnât have had the chance to return to my own body. Amou, I am the real one; he is the impostor. Youâre right to trust me. Remember, we once promised that when we regained our freedom, I would name our sonâ¦â
Su Hongxingâs face turned pale as she looked at Ye Qilan, unable to say a word.
Seeing her reaction, Ye Qilanâs expression darkened: âYour reaction truly saddens me.â
He had thought sheâd be happy that he could return, but it turned out to be the opposite.
Su Hongxing didnât know what to say. If this Ye Qilan was back, then what about the other Ye Qilan? Had he returned to the Void Space?
This Ye Qilan being alive was indeed good news, she should be glad, but she was also worried about the other Ye Qilan.
âDonât overthink it. Iâm very happy you came back. Letâs do this: first, focus on recovering your health, and weâll talk about everything else later.â Su Hongxing said with a smile.
Ye Qilan looked at Su Hongxing for quite a while before asking, âAre you sure youâre happy that I came back?â
âThereâs no need to dwell on it. Iâm just worried about him; indeed, Iâm very happy youâve come back.â As she spoke, Su Hongxing got up and said, âIâm going to find the doctor to clarify some details about your injuries.â
Not waiting for Ye Qilan to speak, she quickly left the ward. As soon as she exited, she hid in the fire escape.
How could this be so absurd? One moment he appears, the next he disappears; she was completely unprepared for this Ye Qilan to return.
It wasnât until her legs went numb from sitting that Su Hongxing reluctantly accepted the reality. She didnât even know where that other Ye Qilan was, how he was doing, or if he was somewhere beyond her sight now.
When Qiao Qiao returned, she noticed Su Hongxingâs expression was off. Assuming Su Hongxing was overthinking things, she found an opportunity to call Su Hongxing out of the ward.
Su Hongxing explained the situation, leaving Qiao Qiao speechless: âAre you sure itâs the Ye Qilan from before?â
âItâs definitely him, Iâm sure this time.â Su Hongxing could sense that this wasnât the other Ye Qilan.
âWhat do you plan to do now?â Qiao Qiao was at a loss. If it were her, sheâd probably have a mental breakdown too.
âI donât know either,â Su Hongxing replied, her voice hoarse. No matter how confused she felt inside, she didnât want to show it in front of Ye Qilan; it wasnât his fault.
Back then, he died saving her, and this body rightfully belonged to him. Returning to his own body was only natural, wasnât it?
âYour situation might be one of a kind. Try not to worry too much and decide what to do later.â Qiao Qiao gently patted Su Hongxingâs shoulder.
Su Hongxing nodded and smiled: âItâs good that heâs back; I should be happy about it.â Yes, she should be happy, but why did she feel so sad?
No matter what, she would have to lose one of them. Theoretically, they were the same person, but not entirely.
Upon returning to the ward, Su Hongxing had regained her composure. She fussed over Ye Qilan, which surprised and delighted him.
âAmou, you love me more than him, right?â Ye Qilan couldnât help but ask. Wasnât that other Ye Qilan involved with Su Hongxing over three lifetimes? He was no less, having interacted with Su Hongxing in this reincarnation. The difference was he had made her sad before.
Su Hongxing smiled subtly and changed the subject: âDidnât you say youâd name our son?â
Now that heâs back, itâs time for him to fulfill his previous promise.
