"Please, for the eleventh time. Leave me alone."

This is why Xue Yang partly doesn't want to go to Yueyang.

"Geez, it's not like I'm clinging my entire life on you. And all we want is to keep away the villagers from burning you alive!"

On the contrary, Xue Yang is already dead. Thank you very much.

"Can't you see that I am far from being alive?" He says out of spite, walking faster ahead from the pair.

"Can't you see that I'm also far from being able to see?" A-Qing retorts, in which Xue Yang snorts in return.

"Lies. You can see clearly as daylight."

A-Qing stills for a while before nodding, thinking that it is befitting for someone from Yunmeng to see through her lies.

"Touché."

Though even Xue Yang was sure that even Wei Xun would mistake A-Qing for being blind, considering that was what he thought too from his first life.

"Still, A-Qing is right. Whether you're dead or alive, you are still a kid."

It's still new for Xue Yang to receive kind treatment from Song Lan, considering the previous animosity they had regarding Xiao Xingchen.

But this time, Song Lan and Xiao Xingchen haven't met yet.

"...Do whatever you want, don't be a hindrance and don't ask questions."

Xue Yang had given up arguing at some point, bringing triumph on the girl's face.

"So, where are we going?"

Xue Yang narrowed his stiff eyes to glare at the girl, who in return let out a teasingly gasps before rephrasing her words.

"So we shall now venture to the haunted abode of Yueyang Chang Clan." She says like she wasn't asking a rhetorical question earlier.

'...Fucking piece of shit.'

Now that is not some nice words to think of a lady.

Xue Yang couldn't help but become lethargic when she spoke like she was some storyteller from the random streets found in Yunmeng. He's sure that he'll be cringing if he was still alive, wanting to bury himself instead because of the second hand embarrassment he should be feeling.

Thank Jin Zixun for killing him then.

Before A-Qing could talk again, Xue Yang decided to make a run for it. He doesn't have the time to reminisce when he needs to go back to Yunmeng as soon as possible.

Being in Yueyang gives him a lot of bad memories and most of all, it suffocates him.

The moment Xue Yang's feet land on the familiar rooftop of Yueyang Chang, he wants to retreat right then and there.

There were memories both from his past life and the current one, surging all together in one hazy recollection.

Xue Yang jumps once again and this time, he arrives at the doorstep of the building. The same building where he would always beg for something that was promised to him.

He couldn't help but scoff at the younger him.

"Do you have a clue?" A voice suddenly spoke, making Xue Yang turn to look at his side abruptly.

There stood the proud stature of Song Lan.

He wonders where he left the blind little girl for this man to follow him.

Standing side by side with the older, Xue Yang couldn't help but stare from afar on how big the difference is.

"Yes." He gives a short answer.
