Still Have This Side – Chapter 76
by Little PandaNo wonder you two can be together.
Yi Wanyue returned.
She returned to her world, back to where it all began.
Qiu Baiyu was waiting for her in the room, constantly waiting, not daring to relax.
Until she heard her voice.
“Baiyu.”
Seeing her beloved suddenly appear in the room, Qiu Baiyu walked towards her without hesitation and embraced her tightly.
“It’s good that you’re back.”
Qiu Baiyu was terribly worried.
Although Xiao Yu said that Yi Wanyue wouldn’t be in danger, when she heard the words “sent wrong,” she still couldn’t help but worry.
She really feared that something might have happened to her while she was alone in her past, and she would have been powerless to help.
Yi Wanyue clearly sensed her beloved’s tension and couldn’t help but hug her back, holding her tightly in her arms, as if continuing the brief embrace from earlier.
They met in the future.
“It’s alright, I’m here, I’m back.”
Then Xiao Yu’s voice sounded in their ears:
ใDue to my mistake, the dream journey is temporarily postponed. We now need to check if this has caused any serious effects in the real world, so you two should rest well tonight.
ใI’m very sorry, I must take my leave for now!ใ
Her voice came and went hurriedly, as if she had poked a hole in the sky.
Qiu Baiyu didn’t know what had happened when Yi Wanyue traveled back in time, but when she heard Xiao Yu say “serious,” she unconsciously started to worry again.
This didn’t sound like a small matter.
“Did something serious happen when you went back?”
Yi Wanyue thought and thought.
Was it serious?
She had only kept little Baiyu company for a while, neither revealing her identity nor spoiling the future for little Baiyu, and she didn’t wander around, always behaving properly.
In summary, she said, “No.”
She looked at Qiu Baiyu and said, “Xiao Yu told me not to wander around, so I didn’t. I just stayed in the park and played soccer with a child.
“That child was very nice, she let me use her swing and even invited me to have dinner at their home.”
As she finished speaking, she smiled, her eyes curving.
Qiu Baiyu stared at her blankly.
Playing soccerโฆ
Offering the swingโฆ
This storyline seemed so familiar.
Isn’t thisโฆ isn’t this exactly what happened when she met her first friend as a child?!
โ Could it be!
Qiu Baiyu suddenly realized, her eyes widening instantly.
Seeing that she had figured it out, Yi Wanyue’s eyes filled with an even deeper smile.
She took her hand, kissed her palm, and gazed at her with the utmost tenderness.
“Baiyu, I’m so glad to meet you again, and I’m so happy that you’ve grown up healthy.
“Let me reintroduce myself, my surname is Yi, my name is Yi Wanyue, and I’m your eternal, best friend.”
At this, Yi Wanyue added with a beaming smile: “And now, I’m also the girlfriend who loves you the most.”
Qiu Baiyu’s surprised eyes grew wider and wider.
It was herโฆ
The first friend she had been waiting for had been by her side all along!
Qiu Baiyu’s eyes instantly reddened, and she was speechless for a long moment.
This feeling was truly difficult to express in words.
Yi Wanyue cupped her face, kissed the corner of her eye, pressed their foreheads together, and softly comforted her: “Don’t cry, I’m here, don’t cry.”
She was her hope.
She was by her side, every day was a reunion.
Qiu Baiyu held her hand, lowered her gaze, and couldn’t help but laugh softly, her voice carrying a slight, emotional tremor.
“So that’s how it isโฆ
“So we met long agoโฆ”
She had never imagined it would be someone by her side.
Xiao Yu’s mistake had inadvertently sent a warm light to her childhood.
The box of fate is truly unpredictable, always surprising and delighting people.
“Good, it’s good that we can meet again, it’s wonderfulโฆ”
She looked at Yi Wanyue’s features.
This face was so beautiful, and so clear, clearer than ever before.
The blurry memories hidden deep in her heart dissipated, revealing their true face, as bright as light.
They hugged each other, rejoicing in their reunion, delighting in each other.
Qiu Baiyu asked, “Why didn’t you tell me your name back then?”
Yi Wanyue replied, “Because Xiao Yu didn’t let me say it.”
Qiu Baiyu asked again, “Was it also because of the system that I couldn’t remember your face later?”
Yi Wanyue nodded: “Mm, because I didn’t belong to that world.”
Qiu Baiyu smiled helplessly.
“So that was the reason. I thought I had forgotten my friend’s face on my own and felt guilty for a long time.”
How could she forget her first friend?
That was a very precious, very precious existence.
They had even made a promise to meet in the future.
But then she had completely forgotten what she looked like, which seemed too heartless.
“I was afraid to meet you, afraid that you would be sad because I had forgotten your appearance.
“But I was more afraid of not seeing you, afraid of breaking our promise, afraid of losing you as a precious friend.
“So at that time, I could only place my hope in you, hoping that when we met, you would recognize me, hoping that you wouldn’t blame me for forgettingโฆ”
In her life, she had always held a position that no one else could surpass.
Yi Wanyue tightened her embrace, wanting to keep this most beautiful treasure in the world by her side forever.
She kissed her ear tip, kissed her cheek.
She said gently, “I don’t blame you.
“Even if you forgot, I would remember.”
“Baiyu, I’m so glad that I’m your other wish.”
The person she wanted to see really was in this world.
The person she wanted to see had always been by her side.
The person she wanted to see was her.
She had always been in her future.
“I’m glad too.”
Qiu Baiyu hugged her back, her arms full of happiness.
This was a very precious “mistake.”
“But is this mistake considered a major error?” Qiu Baiyu asked worriedly, “Will Xiao Yu be punished?”
Yi Wanyue remembered Xiao Yu’s messy-haired look: “โฆI think, she will be.”
Xiao Yu’s mistake was a warm error for them, but not so for the internal system.
After this incident, Xiao Yu would probably face some punishment.
Realizing this, the two began to worry for her.
“I hope the punishment won’t be too severeโฆ” Qiu Baiyu said softly.
Another workday.
Qiu Baiyu and Yi Wanyue were going to try entering Guo Jiasui and Yue Xiao’s dreams again tonight.
Unlike last time, this time the system administrator wasn’t just Xiao Yu, but also included Bai Zhi.
ใI’ll teach her.ใ
That’s what Bai Zhi said.
The mess Xiao Yu had made last time could be big or small.
Fortunately, Yi Wanyue’s time travel hadn’t caused any serious impact on the real world.
But Xiao Yu’s punishment was inevitable, though it would only be carried out after this work was completed.
Fearing that Xiao Yu might make another mistake, the higher-ups had specially called Bai Zhi to personally operate once, letting Xiao Yu watch and learn from the side.
Entrusting this matter to her also showed the higher-ups’ emphasis on this work, as well as their apology to Yi Wanyue and Qiu Baiyu.
ใDue to our operational error, we are willing to offer compensation. You can think about what you want.ใ Bai Zhi said.
This was equivalent to giving them another all-powerful wish.
Qiu Baiyu and Yi Wanyue exchanged a glance.
Bai Zhi continued: ใTake your time thinking, there’s no rush to decide. There’s no time limit on this.
ใLet’s deal with your previous wish first, are you ready? If you’re ready, I’ll send you into the dream.ใ
They held hands again.
Bai Zhi’s voice continued in their ears: ใI’ll repeat the points to note, dreams are absurd and irrational places. After you enter, you might see many magical things, or encounter sudden and illogical scene changes, so please be mentally prepared.
ใAt the same time, you will also have certain transformation abilities. You can transform into whatever you want. For example, you can change the space, or even conjure up an afternoon tea to enjoy with themโฆ
ใBut remember, this dream world is their domain. How it changes is still up to them, so just go with the flow.ใ
The two nodded again, indicating that they had remembered everything.
ใGood, let’s begin.ใ
As she spoke, Bai Zhi keenly compared the information on the screen and pressed the transfer key decisively.
Yi Wanyue and Qiu Baiyu felt their bodies lighten, like the wind.
Then they were sent into the dream, so quickly it happened in the blink of an eye.
They landed one after the other on something soft, gently opening their eyes.
First, they saw the person beside them, putting their hearts at ease.
Then they realized they were on a cloud.
They were floating in the sky, surrounded by soft, fluffy clouds, with the sky white tinged with a fresh pink.
It looked like a sweet dream world.
They stood up, supporting each other, looking at each other.
Yi Wanyue suddenly said, “I’ve heard people say you don’t feel pain in dreams.”
Qiu Baiyu: “I’ve heard that too.”
Then, in perfect sync, they both pinched themselves โ it really didn’t hurt!
Bai Zhi, who was monitoring the merged dream, saw this scene: ใโฆใ
No wonder you two can be together.
“Let’s find Xiaoxiao and Suisui.”
Qiu Baiyu looked around excitedly, holding Yi Wanyue’s hand as they started searching.
Soon, a large garden appeared before their eyes.
The garden was bathed in bright sunshine, surrounded by flowers, with butterflies and fireflies, very dreamlike.
Qiu Baiyu caught sight of a woman wearing a dress inside.
The dress was white, adorned with small daisy patterns, and had a large yellow butterfly bow hanging from the back of the waist.
She recognized this dress.
It was Yue Xiao’s.
Yue Xiao loved this dress, which they had bought together while shopping.
“It’s Xiaoxiao!”
Qiu Baiyu’s heart surged, her blood boiling with excitement.
She pulled Yi Wanyue into the garden, calling out to the owner of the dress: “Xiaoxiao!”
The woman straightened up at the sound, turning to look at them.
“Oh, Xiaobai!!”
Seeing her old friend, Yue Xiao was overjoyed.
But Qiu Baiyu and Yi Wanyue were stunned.
They saw that the woman before them had delicate and cute features, but she was wearing a sunflower head cover on her head and holding a colorful watering can in her hand, even pouring water on her own head.
Not a single drop of water fell to the ground; it was all absorbed by her sunflower head cover.
The sunflower petals even became fluffier and softer, with a pink soft light effect around them, seemingly well-nourished.
Qiu Baiyu: “โฆ”
She didn’t understand: “Xiaoxiao, what are you doing?”
Yue Xiao continued her watering motion without changing: “I’m watering myself. I’m a flower, and flowers need water to grow better.
“I’ll come hug you after I finish watering. If I don’t have enough water, I’ll wither.”
Yi Wanyue: “?”
Qiu Baiyu: “?”
Qiu Baiyu fell silent.
She understood now.
Everyone’s mental state in the dream was also quite beautiful.
HAHAHAHAHAHA Maybe Baiyuโs other wish is for them to see a psychiatrist. Kidding aside, dreams are sometimes inherently ridiculous anyways.
