Chapter 66: Tan Jiao 09 (9)
His sudden hug irritated me, so I used all my strength to try and push him away. What are you doing? Didnt you make yourself clear already? Let me go!
Wu Miao immediately became quiet.
Wu Yu did not let me go. Instead, he gave me a deep look and said, Come with me. I tried to resist him, but he still dragged me along and out to the corridor. Only after he closed the door did he let me go.
I walked toward the window with my back to him, totally ignoring him.
He came to my side and stayed quiet for a moment. I thought I was in a dream.
I did not respond to him for some time before finally asking, What is going on?
I dont care what this is, but dont you think too many strange things have happened to us? My eyes, our memory, Yan Yuans birds. Everything is linked to this ship. Now that time has turned back, Tan Jiao, do you know what that means?
I turned to look at him. His tired eyes were now somewhat bloodshot. I knew what this meant, and I knew that he may be able to change the past. He could stop his sister and mother from passing away.
I felt emotional and burst out saying, Thats fantastic. Wu Yu, if you can change their fate, then you wont have to live like that and youll have a good life.
With patience and kindness in his eyes, he looked at me. I felt somewhat uncomfortable. So what do we do now?
Ill do everything in my power to stop the murders from happening. I nodded in response.
Will you help me? he asked.
Of course I will, I replied without hesitating.
Then lets talk to Wu Miao now, he turned and said. A smile suddenly appeared on his lips. You know, youre someone she looks up to, goddess Qi Zhu. I know how she doesnt quite like to listen to me, so perhaps having you talk to her will be better.
I followed him for a few steps before stopping. The thoughts I had were developing out of control.
I grabbed his shirt with my face down and said, Wu Yu, if history changes, then you wont be a repairman anymore. Then wont we not meet at all?
No.
He turned to me and gently caressed my face. His fingers felt soft and not how they used to be.
I will always remember you. I wont forget you.
I felt even sadder when I heard this and said, How do you know that?
He fell into a lull before saying, Right now, it is ten fifty-five, 24th of June, 2016, and youre here with me. The fact that I can remember you now, means that from now on, even if history is changed, I will still remember you. Thats why I wont forget you.
We arrived outside of Wu Miaos room.
He knocked on the door gently, and the shadow of a smile developed on his lips. His smile looked somewhat bitter, and I suddenly felt pity for him.
At this moment, a wave of dizziness hit me; perhaps it was the glaring sunlight that hit me, or maybe it was because I was thrown into such chaos immediately after waking up.
I pulled myself together, thinking that now was not the time.
Wu Miao opened the door and revealed a quick smile upon seeing us. Oh, you got her back? Miss, how were you able to date my very unfriendly brother?
Even though Wu Yu always said that Wu Miao was a brat that did not like to listen to him, I thought she was somewhat cute. I put on a smile and said, Nice to meet you Wu Miao. My name is Tan Jiao. It's the Tan with the radical Yan, while Jiao is the character for bright.
