Meng Qing had not yet returned. Yu Yi breathed a sigh of relief. She changed out of her dress and veil, completely shut down Lin Bai’s terminal, and placed it in the white room’s storage cabinet.
She sat down at the table, her heart still racing.
Time reversal was indeed possible. She had even seen her past self. According to Lin Bai’s explanation about time reversal, if she truly changed the past, her father and brothers would not die, and she would not become a courtesan and then an executor.
The current her would disappear, and both Meng Qing and Lin Bai would forget her.
Or perhaps “forget” was not quite right – they had never seen her, they didn’t know she existed at all. Yu Yi suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest. Was she really going to return to the past and change it?
Her room door slid open, and Meng Qing appeared at the entrance. Yu Yi hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corner of her eye.
Meng Qing quickly walked to her side, surprised and asked, “Why are you crying?”
Yu Yi turned to him and revealed a smile: “The movie just now had a tragic ending, which made me cry.”
Meng Qing let out a sigh and said, “You women always like to torture yourselves. Why not watch something happy when you’re looking for entertainment?”
Yu Yi changed the subject: “How is Lin Bai?”
“He’s fine. He and Xia Xuanxuan broke up two years ago. He might feel a bit uncomfortable, but not to the point of being unable to let go.”
Yu Yi was stunned by his words, with the phrase “even if their feelings were deep before, they’ve faded now” repeatedly spinning in her mind.
Meng Qing noticed her unusual expression and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you still thinking about that movie?”
“No,” Yu Yi shook her head and hurriedly said, “Since he’s okay, let’s go back to the villa.”
They changed and returned to Xiye Villa.
Meng Qing looked out the window and said, “It’s still early in the morning. Let’s wait a bit before sending Guan Dujiu off.”
