Return to the Road of God

Ye Yufan asked Rui Beinian to meet at a French fries and fried chicken restaurant, and there are restaurants like this everywhere in Xili.

Rui Beinian: "Have you considered it?"

Ye Yufan hesitated for a long time before responding, "Yes."

Rui Beinian scanned the surroundings of the store: "Is it in this place?"

Ye Yufan looked at the man he had to guard against: "Anyway, it's just a chat, it doesn't matter where you are?"

Rui Beinian: "To be honest, it's a bit noisy here. If you think we're just 'chatting', you're wrong. Even ordinary psychological counseling needs a relatively quiet place."

Ye Yufan frowned, he couldn't think of any suitable place that could satisfy Rui Beinian's requirements while ensuring his own safety.

Rui Beinian easily understood Ye Yufan's doubts, and suggested, "I passed by a nice place a few days ago, it's the ST Leisure Center, and there's a bar on the third floor that's very quiet..." He glanced at his watch, "It's only afternoon It's three o'clock, why don't we sit down? I'll buy you a drink."

Ye Yufan had heard of the name of the ST Leisure Center in Xili City. Although he felt a little uneasy, it was not a strange place after all.Ye Yufan followed Rui Beinian to ST, and the bar mentioned by the other party is located on a semi-open garden balcony, each area is separated by beautiful potted plants and indoor greenery, it is really secluded and quiet.And because this place is on the sunny side, the afternoon sun shines through the skylight and brightens the room, which makes people feel good unconsciously.

"There is such a place in the city center..." Ye Yufan murmured.

Rui Beinian looked at him with a smile, and asked the waiter to lead them to a seat by the window.

There are not many customers in such a unique place. When passing the central hall, Ye Yufan found that most of the areas were empty.

Just as he was wondering, the waiter handed over the menu, and Ye Yufan quickly understood the reason why this place was so sparsely populated—the price was about three times higher than that of ordinary bars, which discouraged most people!

Rui Beinian glanced at the menu, and said directly to the waiter, "A bottle of tonic water, a glass of lemonade, and... an order of French fries."

Ye Yufan was stunned for a moment, Rui Beinian turned to him, and said, "I remember you like lemonade."

That's right, Ye Yufan almost forgot that when he was diagnosed two years ago, he had a detailed investigation of the information, including his dietary preferences.

Drinks and snacks came up quickly, Rui Beinian pushed the plate of French fries in front of Ye Yufan, Ye Yufan asked strangely: "Is this for me?" Obviously it is not appropriate to order French fries in such a place, at first Ye Yufan thought it was Rui Bei Nian wants to eat...

"Didn't you ask me to meet at the French fries and fried chicken shop?" Rui Beinian took a sip of the tonic and said with a smile, "Don't stress, just treat this place as a small street shop that can be found everywhere."

"..." Although Rui Beinian's explanation was a bit far-fetched, after Ye Yufan ate a piece of French fries, the pressure seemed to be really relieved.

The two sat facing each other, and chatted for a while without saying a word. From the food in Xili to the climate, from the major settings of the Art Academy to Ye Yufan's courses, Rui Beinian acted like a considerate elder brother.

Time passed quickly, and soon it was dark.Rui Beinian crossed his fingers, looked at Ye Yufan, and concluded today's conversation: "Hey, if you think this way is okay, how about we meet here at the same time tomorrow?"

Ye Yufan: "Hmm..."

The second day, the third day... For three consecutive days, Ye Yufan came to the garden bar chosen by Rui Beinian as scheduled. leaked to anyone.

Ye Yufan gradually let go of his guard, and when facing Rui Beinian, his nerves were no longer tense all the time.

On the fourth day, when Ye Yufan arrived at the bar, Rui Beinian was already there, "I thought you would be here soon, so I ordered for you." Rui Beinian pointed to the soda on the table and said, "Just came up, There you are."

Ye Yufan thanked him, the weather was fine that day, he was sweating a little when he walked here, and there happened to be a cold soda in front of him, so he picked it up and took a sip.

Rui Beinian looked at him with a smile: "Today, shouldn't it be time to talk about those things you can't remember?"

Ye Yufan breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, there is one thing I have never understood. Do you still remember that I mentioned it to you last time, did I ever love someone?"

"Remember, you said, you moved on." Rui Beinian could easily guess the object of Ye Yufan's moving on. It was the "official" whom Xia Xiaochuan used as Bai Changqing's stand-in in Guan Hongze's story. Lin Yun".

There was a trace of pain in Ye Yufan's eyes: "But I forgot how I empathized, and I always subconsciously deny that kind of myself."

Regarding this point, Rui Beinian didn't think it was wrong. Generally speaking, people who cheated mentally or physically would have a tendency to deny themselves to some extent. They would feel guilty and guilty. This is a normal psychology. state.

Rui Beinian: "Is it because you feel that you have betrayed your old love, so you deny yourself?"

"No," Ye Yufanhao denied without hesitation, "I feel that I was divided into two halves at that time, one half was not under my control, and the other half was still watching all that happened soberly."

Rui Beinian was puzzled: "You mean, it's only a part of you that empathizes?"

Ye Yufan nodded, frowned and said, "Besides, at the time, I felt that everything happened inexplicably."

Rui Beinian was startled: A person is divided into two halves, and one half remains the same, and still sees clearly that the other half falls in love with someone else?How does this situation look like a split personality?

"You mean, your empathy is out of control? It wasn't out of intention, but happened out of nowhere?" Rui Beinian asked.

Ye Yufan hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Yes."

Rui Beinian: "..." This is really weird... Wait!What Ye Yufan is extracting now should be Xia Xiaochuan's psychology and his memory. Could it be that Xia Xiaochuan in the previous life was a patient with split personality?

Ye Yufan didn't notice the sudden change in Rui Beinian's face. He was immersed in his own thoughts, trying to untie this knot... His brain was throbbing, and he tried to ignore it. I can see the truth clearly through the fog in front of me!

"...Ye Yufan, what are you thinking..." Rui Beinian's voice seemed to come from far away, and Ye Yufan felt a little dizzy.

"Huh...?" He responded dully.

It seemed like a long time passed, "...Xiao Chuan!"

A sudden call brought Ye Yufan back to his sanity in an instant. He regained his composure and looked around—this was a dark room, with light coming in through the gaps in the thick curtains, making the furnishings in the room barely visible. There is a retro European-style sofa lying across, underfoot is a carpet with intricate patterns, and the tip of his nose is filled with the smell of carbon, lead and paint. He thinks, this is probably a studio...

He walked towards the window step by step. With a bang, the curtains were forcefully pulled open. The dazzling sunlight caught him off guard and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, he saw greenery outside the window...

It was an exquisite courtyard. The walls of the courtyard were covered with lush vines, and the courtyard was surrounded by pink flowers. Half of the stone benches were hidden among the bushes, and the water shone beside it. It seemed that there was a small pool... so beautiful.

His fingers caressed the window sill. It was a lattice window painted with red lacquer. It looked like it didn't belong to this era, but it felt indescribably familiar—it didn't belong to this era?

He suddenly turned around, and when he saw the furnishings in the room, his heart beat violently—the walls were full of paintings, easels, drawing boards, paints, all neatly arranged around the room... This is, his studio ?

His eyes fell on the easel in the corner of the room, which was covered with a piece of cloth. He remembered that as long as there was an unfinished painting, he would carefully cover it with a black curtain... His feet were not affected. Controlled to move like an easel, he suddenly wanted to see what was painted on the drawing board behind the curtain...

Every step he took, he could clearly hear the slight friction between the soles of his shoes and the carpet, rustling, rustling...

He could also clearly hear his own heartbeat, thump, thump...

"Xiaochuan..." Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in the room.

He was startled, and looked back in the direction of the voice—"You...are calling me?"

A man who looked to be in his thirties was standing on the edge of the sofa, staring at him blankly, "You're back..." There was a burning heat in the man's eyes that made him want to escape, and even his calm tone concealed it. I can't find the deep feeling in it.

But he took a step back inexplicably and asked, "Who are you...?"

"..." The man's eyes became deeper and deeper, and he walked towards him, "You are finally back..."

"You, are you waiting for me?" He shook his head twice, feeling a little confused, what happened?Why do I feel like I have forgotten a lot of things...

The man approached him and hugged him irresistibly.

He was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, the smell of that person was already in his breath, unique but familiar...

He tried hard to recall why he appeared here, but his head hurt so much that he couldn't remember at all...

"Xiaochuan, I miss you, I miss you...I miss you..." He was clearly close at hand, but the man spoke very forcefully, his voice was almost hoarse, his hot air sprayed against his ears, making him endure I couldn't help but shudder.

"Lin Yun..." When he said these two words unconsciously, the man hugged him harder.

He seemed to have remembered something, and asked uncertainly, "Are you... Guan Linyun?"

The garden bar on the third floor of Siri ST.

This place has been reserved by a wealthy employer, who is sitting leisurely on the sofa, staring at everything that happened in front of him.

His "patient" was so dazed that he was hugged by a young man, and the corners of his mouth opened and closed: "Are you... Guan Linyun?"

Guan Hongze looked at the young man in front of him in astonishment, he was someone he liked, someone who was curious, someone who had fantasized about him more than once, someone who hugged him like this...

However, this person was confirming to him whether he was Guan Linyun.

While struggling, not far away, a clear command floated leisurely: "Kiss him."
