Nine years ago…
"Be careful!"
"Be careful!"
When the same words were said by two different people in unison, the crowded street was also filled with chaotic screams. Two children rushed to the middle of the road at the same time and pounced on another younger boy, so that the boy would not be killed under the wheels.
Nine-year-old Xia Lei rubbed her injured arm and cried out in her heart," God…It hurt so much. She finally got rid of her daddy and went to play at the New Jiaho. She also saw her good friend's reason for running away from home today. She wanted to have some fun by herself first, but she saw a boy younger than her standing in the middle of the road without moving. It was really a sin to hit someone…
Xia Lei struggled to open her eyes. What greeted her eyes was a cold and handsome face. Wow!!! She had thought that her daddy was the most beautiful man in the world, but she did not expect him to be as beautiful as his daddy. His light green eyes were especially charming and charming, making her dizzy. Did he save the little boy with her??
The 12-year-old Yu Hanrui frowned slightly after he fell down. He opened his eyes. He was already in a bad mood after being forced to come to the New Town by his parents to visit his sister. In the end, he saw a child who was beaten and neglected almost get killed. Damn it!!!
The first thing he saw was an astonishingly beautiful girl. She could actually disregard her own life to save others at such a young age. She was simply an incredible legend. He had been trained since he was young, so he could have such courage, but she... especially the feeling when she stared at him was so similar to his Demon Knight Princess!! It was simply too strange…
The two of them looked at each other for a while. Suddenly, there were a few faint moans between them, and the two of them came back to their senses at the same time! God…What are they doing? She had actually forgotten about the boy she had saved!
Xia Lei and Yu Hanrui helped the boy they had saved up. He was younger than them, but to their surprise, there was no trace of panic on his beautiful face. His long eyelashes were drooping, covering his inner thoughts, but it was not difficult to see his disappointment...
Yu Hanrui and Xia Lei looked at each other again and said at the same time,"Is he your brother?"
Then, the two of them turned their faces back to the little boy in surprise. Xia Lei asked in the tone of an older sister,"Brother, what's your name? Why are you alone on the road? Where's your mother?”
The little boy, who was Dongfang Yeyuan, heard Xia Lei's words and looked up at her slightly,""It's hard to tell if her beautiful eyes are pure or unfathomable."I don't have a name. I don't have a mother!”
Xia Lei thought he was joking. She looked at his round face and said,"It's not good to lie! Then I'll call you Little Joker Yuan Yuan!”
Yu Hanrui noticed that his lowered eyes were filled with tears and sadness.
Yu Hanrui gently pulled Xia Lei. Their eyes met and they nodded in tacit understanding.
"Shall we send you home?" Yu Hanrui asked.”
Dongfang Yeyuan was unusually excited because of this sentence: "" Don't, don't, don't…Don't send me home, I don't want to go home, don't, don't, don't…" Then she ran away while shouting.
Yu Hanrui and Xia Lei were shocked and immediately chased after him. The 8-year-old Dongfang Yeyuan was not as tall as Yu Hanrui and Xia Lei, so he was caught up in an instant. He could only struggle desperately. The two of them grabbed his arm, wanting to calm him down, but it caused Dongfang Yeyuan to groan abnormally. The two of them were stunned and simultaneously lifted Dongfang Yeyuan's long-sleeved shirt…
"Damn it!" The two of them roared at the same time.!!”
How could they believe what they were seeing? The bloody whip marks on her tender arms were too horrible to look at. Who would do such a vicious thing to such a young child?
"Yuanyuan, who is it?" Xia Lei asked with a pained expression.?Who did this? Tell me, tell me!!”
Yu Hanrui's face was cold." You have to say it. We can't allow you to do this alone!"”
Dongfang Yeyuan shyly shook off their hands,""No, you can't help me. You can't help anyone. Even if you help me this time, what about in the future? Who can help me?"
Xia Lei and Yu Hanrui grabbed his hands without hesitation.""Whether it's now or in the future, we will protect you if we decide to protect you, even if it's for the rest of our lives.”
The small Dongfang Yeyuan raised his tearful face and looked at the determined Yu Hanrui and Xia Lei under the sunlight, muttering to himself,""Don't I belong to the darkness? Wasn't he the damned child that his mother had been talking about?”
Yu Hanrui and Xia Lei shuddered as they realized the reason why he was in the middle of the road."No, of course you're not. Because we've appeared. We're the two rays of sunshine in your life!”
Dongfang Yeyuan looked at Xia Lei and said innocently,""You are not sunshine. You are like what the teacher said, a flower bud that blooms in summer!”
Xia Lei pretended to be surprised." Is that so? Then I'm just a flower bud that blooms in summer, okay?"”
Just like that, the three of them met and laughed…
"Young Master, don't run. Come back with us!!”A few voices rang out. Yu Hanrui and Xia Lei saw Dongfang Yeyuan's pale face and the two of them did not hesitate to hold his hand and run into the crowd.
=================================
When Xia Lei saw Dongfang Yeyuan's face that suddenly became suspicious and cruel, she woke up from her memories: ""I…"
Dongfang Ye Yuan said fiercely,"What am I doing? Was he reminiscing? Is he reminiscing with you? I didn't! I'm not…You're full of lies. You lied to me, you lied to me!!”
"Yuanyuan, I didn't, I didn't. I really didn't. Listen to my explanation!" Xia Lei said sadly.”
"Explain? Explain what? Explain why you suddenly disappeared and never returned? Or should I continue to lie, to cover up the lie that you left me behind!”Dongfang Yeyuan cursed himself for coming here and why he did not continue to take revenge on Yu Hanrui while he was in pain.
Xia Lei said anxiously," No, we escaped together that day. Later on, more and more people chased after us. I asked Rui to bring you along. I lured those people away and succeeded. I wanted to go back and look for you, but I was a child who ran away from home. Yuanyuan, my father also sent people to look for me. He even thought that I was deliberately disobedient and tied me up. I couldn't do anything!! Where's Rui? Didn't he always take care of you?"
Dongfang Yeyuan closed his eyes and said faintly,""Don't be helpless! I don't understand, I don't know, Ray? When you were gone for a long time, he told me to hide in the same place alone. He wanted to find you, but I refused because I knew that you had already left me. You left, but I didn't want him to leave too. Looking at his back, I knew that he didn't care about me the most. He still wanted to abandon me. I don't want to…You've already left…"
Xia Lei couldn't believe that he would misunderstand.
Dongfang Ye Yuan sneered, no…he did not want to know the truth. He had become cruel for the past 9 years, it was to get rid of the nightmare that his mother gave him when he was young, to get rid of the protection that Yu Hanrui and Xia Lei had told him that he could be strong. Now that he knew, it would only make his heart ache,""However, in his heart, you are still the most important! You fell in love with him at first sight, didn't you? He was also…He wanted to leave me. I knew it. I watched his back as he left to look for you…You left me behind!”
Xia Lei looked at his cruel smile in disbelief and tears fell."Are you really the Roly Poly we know? That cute, lovable, and praising Yuan Yuan? I came back to look for you several times, and even last year, I went to look for Rui only because there was no news. How can you say such a thing?”
No, he could not be moved by her. He could not: "I am not Yuan Yuan, not anymore. I am just a Dongfang Ye Yuan who was locked up in the dark room and beaten by my mother since young, a Dongfang Ye Yuan who no longer needs your protection!”
Xia Lei looked at him deeply. Why did she do that?"
Touching the depths of his heart, he said mockingly,"What can't a crazy woman who doesn't want the person she loves do? She married my dad, but he hates him and hates me even more!!”
Xia Lei couldn't blame him for his stubbornness and irrationality. He had been afraid of being abandoned since he was young, and she had no choice but to leave."Roly Poly, I don't believe that Rui wouldn't go back to find you after he couldn't find me. He did, didn't he??”
Dongfang Yeyuan laughed evilly,"" Yes, of course he does, but I don't trust him anymore. Of course, I didn't tell you that my father is a top-notch hypnotist, and I've learned it since I was young. So…Rui lost his memories of you and me because…when he came back to look for me, I hypnotized him to forget everything that happened that day. Then, I hypnotized myself to forget the hypnotic suggestion that could unlock his sealed memories. Hahaha…so that he wouldn't leave me behind again. He doesn't remember you, he doesn't remember…and he doesn't remember me!”
Xia Lei did not have any expression. She only looked at him with grief, which made him go crazy."Why didn't you scold me, hit me, or teach me a lesson?”
Shaking her head gently, Xia Lei only said," You're more heartbroken than I am now. You're still sad. You still can't forgive yourself…"
Dongfang Yeyuan laughed, laughing until his tears fell,""No, why would my heart ache? You're the one who's heartbroken. The two of you care more about each other than me. I knew it a long time ago.”
" You're too unfair, Yuan Yuan. You're the person Rui and I once swore to protect at the cost of our lives. How can we endure it when you say that? He has forgotten that I have the confidence to rebuild our relationship, but you have forgotten that my heart is dead…" Xia Lei stood up and walked past Dongfang Yeyuan, leaving behind only cold tears.
Dongfang Yeyuan admitted that he was in pain. It was Xia Lei's explanation that made him recognize the truth. He did not abandon him, but he had given up on himself and there was no way to make up for it.
============================
In a corner not far away…
Kong Yanran opened her mouth gloomily." So there was such a story about Rui. Poor Rui, poor Xia Lei, poor Dongfang Yeyuan!"”
Nangong Beichen smiled." But the truth has already been revealed. Why is Ray so traumatized? Why did Xia Lei come to the bar for Ray? Why is the financial crisis in Hengtong…"
"That's right! Dongfang Yeyuan did not want to lure Rui over for anything, nor did he want to take revenge. He just wanted to see if Rui was doing well and he wanted to make up for it. In his heart, he had never hated Xia Lei and Rui. He was feeling inferior and cowardly, and he did not dare to face the fact that he was always abandoned. The people he loved the most in his heart would be Rui and Xia Lei!”
Nangong Beichen nodded. How could there be such a sad thing? However, he thought that Ray's sealed memories might…
