Face-slapping the childhood sweetheart (1)


Editor: chestnutwhale, Nadralexe


When he returned to the vast space again, Zhou Xu was a bit nervous. The last time they met, that figure’s gaze had been too deep for him to understand, and when he left, Zhou Xu had felt extremely heart-broken, as if he was on the edge of life and death or on the edge of the horizon.


He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened them again, he saw the figure coming. It was still wearing the same clothing as last time and his eyes were just as profound.


Zhou Xu’s heart raced as he stared at the person without even blinking.


The person took a step forward and placed his hand on Zhou Xu’s face. “Little Xu, my name is Song Chenmo, don’t forget.”


“Song Chengmo,” repeated Zhou Xu quietly.


“Little Xu, don’t worry, I will save you. You don’t have to do anything,” said Song Chenmo. With that, he disappeared again.


Zhou Xu’s heart felt extremely painful again as he didn’t want Song Chenmo to leave.


Song Chenmo, Song Chenmo, Chenmo, Chenmo…


Song Chenmo’s name flooded his mind. It seemed that this name had been spoken by him so many times that whenever he said Song, the word Chen would come into his mind. After Chen, the next word Mo would also naturally come out.


But Zhou Xu still forgot him. If he remembered, then how lonely would he be?


Not daring to think about it anymore, Zhou Xu entered the next world.


In Nuo Yaxing’s ward, Song Chenmo’s eyelashes moved slightly as he suddenly got up. He knew that he didn’t have much time left, he must hurry.


Last time, he had already found the problem, it was Zhou Xu’s brother, Zhou Hao.


Song Chenmo originally knew Zhou Xu’s family very well. Why didn’t he know Zhou Hao very well but still remembered him?


After thinking about it, Song Chenmo figured that his memory had been altered, and he wasn’t the only one. In fact, every person who saw Zhou Hao before should have their memories changed.


Song Chenmo suddenly became grateful for the thing they call ‘photos’, but the thought only lasted for a second, because his time was precious and he must find a solution quickly.


To ensure speed, Song Chenmo directly entered the empire’s grand record library. One must send an application to enter the library and get approved by the emperor before he can enter. It was the same even for the generals.


In fact, only a few people have been here before, since there were too many government secrets. But Song Chenmo had, and he knew the password.


Of course, the password would change every once in a while, but Song Chenmo knew how many digits the password had. As long as he knew that, he could figure the password out.


Therefore, he started decoding the password in the ultra-high-speed computer. After ten minutes or so, he had already cracked the password and hit enter.


After entering, he realized why the entire system was having an error. The previous government secrets were still there, but ever since the day Zhou Xu left, the whole system seemed to be controlled. All the contents inside were also different from the original ones.


However, the original system shouldn’t be changed, and now he needed to find the source of the entire system. After that, he would have to alternate the source, and then he would figure out the cause behind it.


After looking at the time, Song Chenmo was surprised. He had been through so many worlds yet only one day passed here?


Before he could think more about it, Song Chenmo knew that he wouldn’t have much time left.


Through the past few waking, Song Chenmo also learned his waking pattern, and the time he stayed awake also increased exponentially.


In fact, it increased very fast. Last time it was fifteen minutes, this time it was half an hour, then the next time it should be an hour.


Decoding would take a lot of time, even an hour wouldn’t be enough, not to mention he was already starting to feel dizzy.


Using his remaining time, he quickly deleted all the traces of his entry into the library. As soon as he finished, he immediately blacked out again.


When he woke up, Zhou Xu was shocked. Song Chenmo’s name was still in his head.


His lips were also slowly moving as he repeated the name in a low voice, “Song Chenmo, Song Chenmo…”


“Little Xu, Little Xu, what are you saying?” A clear voice fell into his ears. As Zhou Xu looked up, he found a “titan” looking at him with concern.


“Nothing.” Zhou Xu replied, but as he said the word, he became even more surprised. His voice was definitely not that of a normal man, it was soft and sounded like a four-year-old.


He looked up at the “titan” again and realized that he was just a teenager. There was no titan, it was just that he was too short.


“Okay, Little Xu, you need to get along with Ru Yu.” The person’s voice was still clear and had the immaturity of a teenager.


“Okay,” replied Zhou Xu. His voice was still soft.


“Good night, then! Sleep well.” With that, the teenager lightly kissed Zhou Xu’s forehead. Zhou Xu was taken back. There was no way he could have sensed it wrong; this feeling could only have come from his lover.


There was a faint numb feeling coming from his pinkie as Zhou Xu tried to observe the information in this world.


It turned out that both Zhou Xu’s parents had died when he was a child and was adopted by his uncle who just turned eighteen. The uncle was not his biological uncle either, he was a child adopted by his grandparents on his mother’s side.


However, both Zhou Xu’s grandparents on his father’s side and his mother’s side have died by now. Zhou Xu’s only relative left in this world now was his uncle.


In fact, when Zhou Xu’s parents died, they left a lot of inheritance for Zhou Xu. His uncle himself also had hundreds of thousands of dollars. He still had to go to college but was determined to not touch any of Zhou Xu’s inheritance. He just raised Zhou Xu like this.


Zhou Xu was four years old, and his uncle’s name was Ye Shaoyun. The two depended on each other.


However, after the two lived for a while, Ye Shaoyun adopted another child, who was Ru Yu.


Zhou Xu didn’t know what was going on in this world. How did he end up with Ye Shaoyun? How did he adopt Ru Yu?


Zhou Xu decided not to think about that for now, and instead, he continued to figure out what was going on.


Ru Yu was the main character of this world. He was a very hard-working child and was one year older than Zhou Xu.


Yes, he had been a hard-worker ever since he was a child and therefore got Ye Shaoyun’s attention.


Zhou Xu looked better than Ru Yu and was also Ye Shaoyun’s nephew, which made Ru Yu very jealous; he desperately tried his best to make himself better.


Speaking of it, Zhou Xu didn’t necessarily hate hard-working main characters like him. What made Zhou Xu hate him was the fact that he kept trying to win against Zhou Xu as a priority.


When Zhou Xu turned four, he started learning piano. Ru Yu also begged to learn the piano, and Ye Shaoyun agreed.


Originally, Zhou Xu just wanted to learn the piano for fun, now that Ru Yu was also learning, he suddenly lost interest in it.


Later when they were in school, although Ru Yu and Zhou Xu were one year apart, to make things easier, Ye Shaoyun took both of them to school.


Zhou Xu’s academic grades had always been pretty good, and later after Ru Yu tried super hard, he surpassed Zhou Xu. Zhou Xu didn’t really mind either, but Ru Yu kept bragging in front of Ye Shaoyun about how he was better.


In the beginning, Zhou Xu didn’t care about Ru Yu’s competitiveness at all. Soon, he started enjoying piano again and even won an award when he was nine years old.


Ru Yu realized that Ye Shaoyun was very happy, so he also started practicing piano every day. If Zhou Xu practiced for two hours, he would practice four. With him working so hard, Zhou Xu didn’t seem as impressive anymore.


Finally, next year, Ru Yu also won an award. After winning, he once again bragged in front of Ye Shaoyun about how many times he worked harder than Zhou Xu, and how he was truly worth this award.


After that was middle school. Zhou Xu still didn’t care much but Ru Yu seemed to be very concerned as he studied desperately. At night, he felt that his room was too dim and asked Ye Shaoyun for Zhou Xu’s desk lamp.


Ye Shaoyun asked for Zhou Xu’s opinion, but Zhou Xu rejected it without even thinking about it.


Ru Yu felt very sad and Ye Shaoyun wasn’t sure what to do either. Zhou Xu, on the other hand, stared at Ye Shaoyun and asked him if he would give everything Zhou Xu had to Ru Yu.


Seeing Zhou Xu’s actions, Ru Yu cried, saying that if Zhou Xu didn’t like him, he would leave. Zhou Xu just stared at him, hoping for him to get out of this place as soon as possible.


That day, Ye Shaoyun scolded Zhou Xu for the first time.


Although Ye Shaoyun solemnly apologized to Zhou Xu afterward, Zhou Xu could already feel that Ye Shaoyun and Ru Yu were against him.


Since then, Zhou Xu has changed. He became very rebellious and thought of Ru Yu as his rival.


In the end, Ru Yu got accepted into a top-level university and Zhou Xu went to a community college. After graduation, Ru Yu found a really good job, and Zhou Xu was still a nobody.


Ye Shaoyun wanted to help him, but Zhou Xu wouldn’t give him any chance at all, as he didn’t even want to see Ye Shaoyun. After he turned eighteen, he took his parent’s inheritance and didn’t need Ye Shaoyun to take care of him anymore. He also found a lot of “friends”.


One day, Zhou Xu returned home and found Ye Shaoyun to be very happy. On this day, Zhou Xu realized that Ru Yu liked Ye Shaoyun.


After graduation, he would confess his feelings to Ye Shaoyun every month, but it always ended with a failure.


This time, Ye Shaoyun refused Ru Yu once again. Ru Yu wanted to stay with him, but Ye Shaoyun refused.


That day, Zhou Xu just stood on the side with his arms crossed as if he was watching a drama. Ru Yu thought that Ye Shaoyun rejected him because of Zhou Xu and ended up being forced to live outside for the night.
