Song Yu walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, close to Xie Sui. He also saw the diary in his hand clearly.

The paper was yellowed, indicating that it had been there for some time.

The handwriting on it was small and elegant. It was written by Xie Sui's mother. Seeing the words, it was as if he saw the beautiful and gentle woman from back then, separated by life and death, separated by time.

Xie Sui closed the diary, tilted his head, and said with a smile, "I remember you said on the phone that you wanted to tell me a secret.

It's a long story, so tell me slowly. "

Song Yu was slightly stunned. He raised his head and looked straight into Xie Sui's dark eyes. He had always liked Xie Sui's eyes. Now, under his quiet gaze, it was like a clear spring that flowed into his heart and soothed all his irritation. He slowly nodded and opened his mouth. "Let me think about where to start first."

Xie Sui said gently, "Let's start with your dream."

"Dream …?

No, it's too messy here. "

Song Yu shook his head and then walked down from the bed.

His pale feet stepped on the thick red carpet.

He walked to the desk, opened the drawer, and took out a piece of paper and a pen.

The retro-style desk lamp's orange light was not dazzling. He spread out the white paper, held the pen in his hand, and said half-jokingly, "I'll tell you a tragic story. It's about you. Do you want to hear it?"

Xie Sui smiled faintly, walked over, and stood beside him. "Okay, I'm listening."

Song Yu held the pen. The young man's wrist was thin and white, and the blue veins could be vaguely seen. It looked fragile, and it was hard to imagine how he could exert such great strength.

He drew a line on the paper.

"Come, this is your timeline.

I once read a book called 'Gentle Control', and the main character was you. "

Xie Sui lowered his eyes and listened carefully, his expression calm.

Song Yu drew a node from left to right on the line. "Here is when you were six years old. The author didn't write clearly before you were six years old, but he used about three chapters to briefly explain that you had a childhood sweetheart, which was me."

He simply signed his name at the side and pointed the pen at the two words "Song Yu". "You don't remember those memories, but we got along quite well when we were young."

Then he broke a point in the timeline. "From six to fifteen years old, you followed Aunt Xu to Jing City and were adopted by Grandma Chen. The years between then could be summed up in one word, miserable."

Song Yu's tone was not heavy, trying to lighten the atmosphere. "Then, something worse happened. I really felt like the author had a grudge against you, and he wrote this book to torture you.

When you were in high school, you met Wang Ci. Yes, he was a naive rich second generation. He sat next to you and bullied you.

After you sent him to the hospital, he became even more hostile towards you.

But he wasn't the worst. Qin Mo was worse. "

Xie Sui listened quietly, his smile still lingering.

"Qin Mo couldn't be described as simple. He was a scumbag.

He coveted your appearance, pretended to be a good person, and kept making a good impression in front of you.

When you were bullied by Wang Ci, he helped you many times, chatted with you and comforted you from time to time.

At that time, your character was inferior and timid. Of course, when you encountered a little light, you grasped it tightly, so you poured out your heart and lungs to him. "

"But he was a scumbag. You were sincere to him, but he was just playing with you. He even set you up when you graduated from high school."

Song Yu frowned slightly as the image of the young man vomiting while holding onto the telephone pole in the rainy night appeared in his mind again.

The tip of the pen stopped at this point in the year of high school and drew a node, almost cutting the paper.

He didn't mention those disgusting things, but simply summarized.

"You injured Wang Ci and escaped from the apartment. Grandma Chen went out to look for you because you didn't come home too late and got into a car accident."

At this point, Song Yu tilted his head, wanting to see Xie Sui's expression.

However, the young man was against the light, and his expression was hidden in the shadows. He didn't seem to be moved. When he met his hesitant gaze, he only smiled and said, "Continue."

Song Yu was stunned for a moment. He nodded obediently and continued to hold the pen to break the line.

It broke at the part between the third year of high school and his return to the Xie family.

"University is a new stage.

Here, you met another scumbag called Sun Heguang. That's his name, right? I don't remember wrongly.

Grandma Chen was hospitalized and needed a lot of medical fees. You worked part-time in university and didn't know how many jobs you had a day.

This scumbag was the boss of the hotel you worked at. He had a white moonlight in his heart who looked very similar to you.

So when he first met you, he had ulterior motives. "

At this point, Song Yu seemed to have returned to the time when he was watching 'Gentle Control'. He felt aggrieved and speechless, especially now that Xie Sui was his boyfriend.

He had never seen Sun Heguang before. He didn't know if he could discuss with Chairman Song to let Tianliang Sun Po, haha.

"You rejected his pursuit, but he didn't give up. In school, he made all kinds of obstacles for you. When he forced you into a corner, the Xie family found you."

A new node.

After that, Song Yu paused for a moment, and then drew a dot a short distance behind her.

"In the book, after you returned to the Xie family for a period of time, Xie Sinian made you the heir out of guilt. After the dust settled, you felt bad about everything in the country and went abroad for three years.

Oh, it was during these three years that we met again.

You were disgusted by Sun Heguang and Qin Mo and your personality was very gloomy. I appeared as your childhood playmate. In the book, I chatted with you for a long time and used childhood memories to comfort you. "

The corner of Song Yu's mouth twitched as she speechlessly said, "Enlighten you, pacify the gloom in your heart, let you let go of the past, completely let go of your hatred for Qin Hesun, and become a kind person again."

Xie Sui smiled.

After Song Yu said the most disgusting part, the rest was easy because he was so angry at that time and didn't read it carefully.

"When you returned to the country, you appeared in A City as the heir of the Xie family. At this time, you met Zhao Ziyu at the banquet, the one you saw tonight."

At this point, Song Yu still felt the need to defend himself. "I really didn't hit him for no reason. He really deserved a beating."

Xie Sui smiled and said in a deep voice, "I believe you."

Song Yu's mood finally improved a little and he smiled.

The timeline drawn at the beginning was not enough. He held a pen at the end and extended it. There was no need to divide the nodes. Anyway, it was not clear.

He said as he extended it.

"Zhao Ziyu and you were rivals in business. After a while, he liked you, but you didn't like him.

At this time, Qin and Sun suddenly repented and felt deeply guilty about what happened in the past. They rushed to apologize to you, but you didn't seem to have forgiven them.

So they hated you because of love. The three of them worked together to drive you out of the Xie family and imprison you on an isolated island. "

Song Yu cursed in a low voice, "A bunch of idiots."

The pen stopped. The rest of the story was from 008's mouth. The original plot of "Gentle Control".

Song Yu's tone became very complicated. "Zhao Ziyu regretted it after imprisoning you. He dealt with Qin and Sun, but he was reluctant to let you go. He chatted with you every day on the island through the door.

He also secretly helped you solve the Xie family's problem. In the end, someone from the Xie family came to the island and wanted to shoot you.

Zhao Ziyu took a shot for you. Life and death were on the line. At that moment — you were moved. "

Song Yu almost gritted his teeth when he said the last four words.

You were moved.

Moved my ass!

"After that, you all went back.

At that time, I had already died of illness and was buried in a cemetery in A City.

Zhao Ziyu was lying in the hospital in a coma. You came to my grave alone and felt emotional about the death of your childhood sweetheart. "

"In the ending of" Gentle Control ", you left my grave and went to the hospital where Zhao Ziyu was. You stayed by his bed … Well, I guess he will open his eyes soon to achieve a happy ending."

He put away the pen.

There was a line drawn by hand on the paper that was not straight. Every node was clearly separated, and each person's name was written next to it.

Song Yu was divided according to time, so the range of his name on this line was pathetically narrow.

After recalling this story, Song Yu's head was a little empty.

He stepped on the blanket and still felt a little cold.

Suddenly, he felt that someone sat down next to him. He turned his head in a daze. It was Xie Sui.

The chair was very big, just enough to accommodate two people.

The young man was wearing a shirt and his tie was untied. He looked idle and languid. His expression did not change, as if he had just heard a stranger's story.

Xie Sui asked, "Are you done with the story of 'Gentle Control'?"

Song Yu was very close to his warm body. After being stuck for half a second, he nodded. "Yes.

But I haven't told you about my dream yet. "

Xie Sui nodded patiently.

Song Yu took out a blue pen from the drawer, turned around, and continued to write on the white paper and the black timeline.

"I dreamed of you every day for a period of time."

"The first time I dreamed of you, it should be in this range.

Not long after you returned to the Xie family, I was chatting with my sister at the banquet and saw you. But at that time, I didn't dare to acknowledge you. "

"The second time I dreamed of you was when we met again abroad in the hospital. It seemed that we met because of me. At that time, you didn't remember anything about your childhood at all."

Song Yu smiled and commented, "Young Master Xie is quite unreasonable."

"The third time." The pen returned to the beginning. "I dreamed of when we were young. The first time we met in the manor, you followed behind me and called me brother. I took you to climb the wall to steal fruits."

"Then the fourth time …" Song Yu was a little lost. He did not know which time period it was. Was it when Xie Sui was trapped on the island or when she was trapped on the island?

"Do you remember that I was trapped in the auditorium last semester? It was raining heavily.

Then I had a dream. I was trapped in a dark room by Qin Mo. This bastard gave me a tube of alcohol.

I went out to call you, but before I could finish the call, I fainted. After I fainted, I heard my mother crying and my sister crying and questioning you. You said you were sorry. "

That was it.

Song Yu did not know how to deal with 008 and the system, but he had made it clear that he wanted to tell Xie Sui. It was like a big stone in his heart had been lifted.

He let out a long sigh and felt comfortable. He turned his head and smiled. His eyes were bright and smiling. "So, actually, I lied to you. Before I came to Jing City to find you, I didn't have any memories of my childhood."

"I just thought that your high school life was too miserable, so I wanted to help you."

When Xie Sui heard the words "a tube of alcohol", he felt his blood turn cold.

His heart was throbbing violently. The overwhelming fear and horror in the haunted house reappeared, seeping into his bone marrow and sweeping through his brain.

He closed his eyes and felt that his hands were shaking.

Song Yu had always said that he was miserable in his previous life and had suffered a lot.

But now, perhaps this was the time when he was closest to the real pain and suffering.

After Song Yu finished speaking, he thought of Zhao Ziyu's words. A trace of confusion flashed through his light-colored pupils. He said, "I have always told you that those who approach with ulterior motives have bad intentions. But it seems that my purpose was not simple at the beginning.

In our previous life, we were friends until we died. In this life, am I cheating?

Because I knew the plot first, I went to find you when you were still young.

I treated you well and made you fall in love with me. "

Was this cheating?

In fact, this question had been bothering him for a long time. It was like taking a guide to conquer Xie Sui.

Xie Sui opened his eyes. His eyes were as cold as before, but slightly red. "No."

Song Yu had a lot to say, but when he saw his red eyes, he suddenly shut up.

Xie Sui smiled and reached out to press the back of his head. Her slender fingers inserted into the boy's soft hair. She leaned over and kissed him.

Her lips and teeth were biting as if she was venting her uneasiness.

The chair's handle imprisoned Song Yu's body, leaving him nowhere to escape. He could only passively accept this somewhat uncontrollable kiss.

Song Yu was stunned. He could feel Xie Sui's hands trembling.

He was a little confused.

Was her boyfriend scared by the stupid book 'Gentle Control'?

"You …"

Xie Sui ended the kiss, but did not get up. She hugged him tightly and said in a calm and gentle voice in his ear, "We must have loved each other in our previous life.

When you came to Jing City, I fell in love with you. It was love at first sight. "

Song Yu was stunned.

Then, he heard Xie Sui say after a moment of silence, almost coaxing, "Yu Yu, don't you have anything to ask me?"

Ask what?

Song Yu's body stiffened.

Xie Lingshu's words flashed through his mind like lightning.

"But I'm still very curious. How can a person change so much after a summer vacation? Is it because he met you?"

The doubts that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time were silent and were about to explode in his head.

From the second time they met, the young man no longer hid his true nature — elegant, smiling, gentle, indifferent, undisciplined in his speech, calm and watertight in his handling of matters.

At the parking lot, she whispered to him, "Dreams are all fake. When you open your eyes, I will always be by your side."

Song Yu's throat was dry. As if waking up from a dream, he opened his mouth and said in a voice that did not sound like his own, "Xie Sui, that day you asked me to stop dreaming, was it because …"

Xie Sui sat down and looked at him quietly with eyes as dark as the abyss.

Because of what?

Song Yu had been speechless.

Xie Sui smiled and lowered her eyes as if to comfort or sigh, saying, "Because I know."

Boom.

It was as if a thunderbolt had exploded in his mind, shattering all his rationality and thoughts, leaving only a blank.

Xie Sui rubbed Song Yu's hair and continued.

"I know everything about your dreams, your words, and your previous life."

"I left your grave and did not return to the hospital."

Her voice was calm as she spoke of the crazy things in a casual manner.

"I was the one who fired the shot that made Zhao Ziyu fall into a coma.

How could I fall in love with him? "

"On a rainy night, I left your grave and did not go to the hospital. I died in a car accident on the road."

"And the story has just begun. I returned to the age of fifteen …"

She looked at Song Yu gently and patiently.

The boy's eyes widened and his vision was unfocused. His face was pale from shock.

Xie Sui gave him time to recover and said slowly and softly, "I returned to the age of fifteen, came to meet you, and fell in love with you again."

Song Yu's mind was blank.

All the clues were clear and all the doubts were solved.

But his limbs were still stiff and his body was cold. He could not speak.

Xie Sui knew that her gaze would only put more pressure on Song Yu, so she did not look at him.

He took the pen from Song Yu's hand and his gaze fell on the timeline on the white paper again. The corners of his lips curled up. It was cold and sarcastic, like a knife in the snow, sharp and bone-piercing.

"I don't know whose imagination the story of 'Gentle Control' was, but now, I can restore my reality to you."

He continued to hold Song Yu's blue pen and began to draw a new line from the place where they met again.

"After I was reborn, all my memories of you were formatted, leaving only the simple concept of childhood sweethearts."

"But it doesn't matter. I have remembered some of it, and I can guess some of it myself."

The way he held the brush was steady and elegant, but the words he wrote were cold and sharp.

"We met again abroad, but it's impossible for me not to remember what happened when we were young.

Maybe I'm lying to you or teasing you, but all of this is to woo you. "

Song Yu was speechless.

Xie Sui said, "It's just like what you told me when I was six years old, when you sat on the iron gate of the orchard.

It turns out that I really liked that 'little sister' who was baring her fangs and brandishing her claws, but I didn't know it. "

Song Yu was speechless.

Xie Sui's line was as straight as if it was drawn with a ruler.

His tone was calm, and his narration was true.

"I wasn't sure if I caught up with you, but now, I think we were lovers in my previous life.

I caught up with you, and I got what I wanted. "

"We should have fallen in love in China, when I left the Xie family.

Moreover, I wasn't framed by Zhao Ziyu and the others. When I left, it was just a trap for Old Master Xie and Xie Lingshu. "

"Your accident happened at this time."

Xie Sui looked at that place silently. After a long time, he laughed self-deprecatingly. "I'm so useless."

He extended the line and said calmly.

"I was never forced to go to the island."

"Perhaps from the very beginning, I was aiming for Zhao Ziyu, to kill him."
