'I miss you, Jiansheng.'
Xu Jiansheng felt a cold breeze suddenly swept his body, and the cold wind circulated around his chest before he felt something was landing on his lap, like a body, but very cold and light.
Xu Jiansheng froze on the spot. He felt that someone was landing on his lap and resting on his chest. He could feel cold fingers trailing from his chest to his chin and then caressed his cheek again.
"Who'¦ are you?" Jiansheng asked. He didn't know if this was true or not, but he felt that there was a ghost sitting on his lap right now.
'You don't remember me?'
"I don't have a ghost friend. What is your dealing with me?" Jiansheng asked again. Honestly, he was creeped out, especially since it was already evening. But when he heard this gentle voice, it didn't seem that this Ghost was hostile,
'I really thought I came to the right person'¦'
Xu Jiansheng closed his eyes to listen closely. He asked for the third time, "Did we know each other?"
'Yes, you're the one who said that you want to take me away from my Cold Palace, remember?'
Xu Jiansheng opened his eyes immediately. He held his breath and stared at his lap. Slowly a semi-transparent body appeared as he was sitting on his laps. He still had his sunken face, which was actually even worse than the last time Jiansheng saw him. He was wearing a loose white hanfu, which showed how thin he actually was inside that hanfu.
His skin was really pale, ashen in fact, and he looked more like a ghost than a human.
But his eyes still sparkled with sincerity, and the moment their eyes met, there was a spark between them.
Bai Yunyu smiled at him, with the same sincere but defeated and bitter smile, 'How have you been, Xu Jiansheng?'
Xu Jiansheng immediately hugged Bai Yunyu, who sat on his lap, but his hand passed Yunyu's body. Yunyu chuckled when Jiansheng hugged him out of reflex, and he commented, 'You can't do that, Jiansheng. Because I'm not human anymore'¦'
Xu Jiansheng said nothing, but he kept staring at Bai Yunyu. After a while, he asked, "Is this really you? Did you'¦ tell me what happened!"
'I died.'
Bai Yunyu sighed, and he continued resting on Jiansheng's chest, 'I died because of broken heart and starvation, I cannot persevere any longer, so I died in my sleep'¦'
Xu Jiansheng was grief-stricken by the revelation from Yunyu. His hand trembled, and his face paled as he tried to hold Yunyu's cold hand again.
But again, his hand passed through Yunyu's hand, as if Yunyu in his lap was just a collection of mist that gathered together to form the image of Bai Yunyu. After trying few times and got the same result, Xu Jiansheng finally gave up.
His face paled as he stared at Yunyu. Then, with his trembling lips, he asked, "What happened to you? Who killed you?"
'Didn't I tell you just now? I died because of starvation and a broken heart. Jiansheng, I cannot persevere any longer. That's why I died.'
'Jiansheng, when I met you before, I knew that I cannot persevere anymore. I knew I'll die soon, that's why I asked you to deliver that letter to Emperor Xianliang. That is my separation letter, not a lovely one.'
"No'¦ Bai Yunyu, I'¦ I was about to save you'¦ Why can't you wait a bit longer?" Xu Jiansheng bit his trembling lips as he stared at Ghost Yunyu.
'It's not your fault, Jiansheng. You've done your job to deliver my letter. At least, Emperor Xianliang finally read what I have been thinking the whole time'¦'
'I don't know if it's his fault or mine, but at least I've separated from the Emperor. I don't want to be entangled with him after my death, especially after he tortured me with a slow and painful death over the years.'
"It's definitely his fault! He is a bastard Emperor! That bastard needs to die!" Jiansheng gritted his teeth. Then he stared at Yunyu again, who gave him a warm smile, and he couldn't help but shed his tears.
Jiansheng's tears passed through Yunyu's body and fell on his own lap, "Yunyu, why do you have to die? You'You should've come with me instead'¦ why'¦"
Bai Yunyu saw that Jiansheng was crying. He caressed Jiansheng's cheek and said, 'It's not your fault, Jiansheng. It's my fate to die in my husband's hand. I don't have many regrets in life, but I have one'¦ and that's why I visited you'¦'
'Jiansheng, would you mind listening to my request? Unfortunately, I don't have much time before I disappear.'
"Yes! I will do anything for you, Yunyu!" Xu Jiansheng said. He was already in so much pain after he knew that Yunyu had died, although he wanted to believe this was just imagination, the cold caress, the spark between them, and Yunyu's sincere but defeated smile'¦ already told him everything.
Bai Yunyu slowly draped his hands on Jiansheng's shoulder and then leaned to kiss Jiansheng's lips. For Jiansheng, it was like kissing a cold glass, but he didn't care because it was Yunyu in the end. In fact, wanted more.
So he pecked Yunyu's lips and let his lips touched that cold tips.
'Jiansheng'¦ my regret is not following you,' Bai Yunyu said. 'I should've followed you to escape because'¦ you may find this strange, but I've fallen in love with you the moment our eyes met'¦'
'I sense a spark between us, and I want to leave that Cold Palace. But I'm too scared that Emperor Xianliang will hunt you down. Besides, I don't even know if you like this feeble me or not'¦'
'Jiansheng, you're young and handsome, you can get better, that's why I can't escape with you back then'¦'
"No! You're the most beautiful! Even'¦ even if you have a scar covered half of your face, you're still the most beautiful for me!" Jiansheng said.
Yunyu froze as he heard that. Xu Jiansheng was Aaron Xu in the previous world, so maybe he shared some unconscious memory with Aaron Xu. It honestly shocked Yunyu on how sincere it sounded.
[Man, Aaron Xu/Jiansheng is really the best man I've ever found. He's so gentle, so kind, and he never forced me to love them. If only he's part of Master Han Ye's soul...]
ραпdα Йᴏνêl(сòm) [Pupa: I tried searching information about Aaron Xu before, but it didn't seem to exist...]
Bai Yunyu rested his head on Xu Jiansheng's warm chest and said,
'Jiansheng'¦ I want to come with you. But I'm a ghost now. And my body has been embalmed by Emperor Xianliang. Every day, I'm suffering whenever I see my corpse in a glass case, with him keep on staring at me like a madman as if his previous torture on me is not enough.'
"HE'S KEEPING YOUR CORPSE?!" Jiansheng was shocked when he heard this. That bastard Emperor really was insane. He had tortured Yunyu to death but still held his corpse. Not allowing Yunyu to give a proper rest.
Jiansheng's gaze darkened. He was already angry at Emperor Xianliang, but he was not raging. He really wanted that Emperor to die.
He stared at Yunyu and asked, "What do you want me to do, Yunyu?"
Bai Yunyu smiled thin and answered,
'It's simple'¦ destroy the Imperial palace for me, burn them all to the ground, including Huang Shu. So I can rest.'
