Chapter 54
Opening his eyes, he feigned surprise as he glanced to the left. “What a coincidence, you like coming here too…”
Before he could finish his sentence, the feigned surprise turned into genuine astonishment.
He quickly looked to the right. “Where is everyone?”
“Where are the people?”
At that moment, Ye Liangchen could no longer maintain his composure. He hurriedly scanned his surroundings; there was not a soul in sight around the train tracks, just an empty expanse stretching out before him...

**Chapter 64: I Am Actually the Redemption of Your Life**
“This shouldn’t be happening, how could this be?”
Ye Liangchen jumped off the train platform and jogged ahead.
“This is clearly where it was in my dream; it can’t be wrong!”
He felt a twinge of panic. Was something wrong?
In his dream, this was the beginning of fate.
That much was certain.
“Bastard!” In an instant, Ye Liangchen grasped the possible truth.
It had to be that scoundrel, Long Aotian, who had taken Hu Yuying away to a hotel.
That beast was truly capable of such things. To get his hands on his treasure girl, his white moonlight, and his childhood sweetheart, he would stop at nothing!
If he hadn’t shown up in time in the dream, Long Aotian would have succeeded!
With that thought, the hatred in Ye Liangchen’s heart surged!
He could no longer care about anything else. He dashed out of the train track’s iron gate, his footsteps... gradually slowing down, his racing heart finally finding a moment of relief.
His gaze fixed on a figure not far away, softening gradually.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Liangchen quickened his pace to catch up.
“A heart that has been hurt, who can it love again? No one knows the taste of being unloved.”
Hearing the voice, Hu Yuying turned back in confusion.
Then she saw Ye Liangchen, breathless, rushing to her side.
Instinctively, she stepped back, her fingers gripping her backpack so tightly they turned bone-white from the tension.
Ye Liangchen desperately tried to steady his breath, forcing a strained smile. “You... are you okay?”
Hu Yuying paused for a moment, then her expression turned even more puzzled. “I’m fine.”
Ye Liangchen found it amusing. He took a deep breath, lowered his head, then quickly raised it again, his eyes locking onto Hu Yuying’s.
“Look into my eyes.”
“Do you feel that sense of eternity, that deep connection?”
Hu Yuying shook her head. “No, I’m going home. Don’t follow me.”
Hearing this response, Ye Liangchen couldn’t believe it. “How is that possible? Look a little closer.”
He lowered his head again, then slowly raised it, his gaze burning into Hu Yuying’s. “What about now? Do you feel anything stirring in your heart?”
Hu Yuying didn’t want to engage with this oddball any longer and tried to walk around him.
“It shouldn’t be like this.” Ye Liangchen stared blankly at Hu Yuying’s retreating figure, pondering where things had gone wrong.
He hurried after her. “Wait, just wait!”
As he turned his head, revealing his sharp jawline, he suddenly looked back, his eyes sincere yet tinged with hurt.
Ye Liangchen remembered that when he met his treasure girl in the dream, they were both in sorrow. He had been too excited earlier, failing to show any sadness.
This time, it had to work!
“What did you see in my eyes?” Ye Liangchen asked, his voice heavy with a hint of sadness.
“You have eye boogers.” Hu Yuying said with a hint of disgust. “Stop following me. My brother is really strong!”
“Eye boogers?” Ye Liangchen quickly wiped at his eyes, then continued to look at Hu Yuying with sincerity and sadness. “What about now? Do you think of anything when you look into my eyes?”
Even the most patient Hu Yuying was starting to lose her cool. “I’m warning you, my brother is really strong. He’ll beat you up.”
With that, she jogged away, inwardly lamenting that Long Ge was right: “People like him, with such a messed-up head, should be kept at a distance.”
Ye Liangchen watched Hu Yuying’s retreating figure, his expression shifting from disbelief to a fierce scowl.
Yes!
It was indeed a fierce scowl.
Because he had just heard his treasure girl threaten him, saying she would call her brother to beat him up.
It was simply unbelievable.
His treasure girl, who once wouldn’t even crush an ant, had now learned to call for someone to fight for her!
If he guessed correctly, these bad habits must have been learned from Long Aotian!
“Good job, Long Aotian. Not only are you a bad influence on yourself, but now you’re trying to drag my treasure girl down with you.”
With the soul of a twenty-eight-year-old, Ye Liangchen knew all too well Long Aotian’s despicable and vile thoughts!
He must think he can’t get into a good university, so he’s trying to corrupt his treasure girl and drag her down into the mire with him!
Only then could Long Aotian completely possess what should have been his treasure girl.
With that thought, Ye Liangchen felt regret.
He truly regretted it.
If he had just pretended not to know Hu Yuying from the start, not trying to protect her or care for her.
He wouldn’t have triggered Long Aotian’s sense of crisis so early.
He wouldn’t have had to act against his treasure girl.
It was all his fault. If he hadn’t taken it upon himself to appear in front of his treasure girl, Long Aotian’s twisted possessiveness wouldn’t have...
With that thought, a glimmer of determination flashed in Ye Liangchen’s eyes.
He looked at Hu Yuying’s back and chased after her.
He couldn’t let his treasure girl be dragged down by Long Aotian like this.
He had to save his treasure girl, just like in the dream, redeem her from suffering and lead her back to the right path.
Only he could be the ray of sunshine in her darkness.
Boys, after all, have the advantage in physical strength, so Ye Liangchen quickly caught up to Hu Yuying.
He spread his arms to block her path, looking at her seriously. “You need to listen to me!”
But when he saw the wariness and disgust in Hu Yuying’s eyes, pain flashed across his face. One hand pressed tightly against his heart, it hurt!
It felt like his heart was being sliced by a knife, and the pain made him feel sad.
How could his treasure girl look at him with such eyes?
To be honest, Ye Liangchen found it hard to accept.
But he took a deep breath and continued, “Hu Yuying, listen to me. I’m actually your destined one. My existence is to redeem you.”
At this point, noticing Hu Yuying’s furrowed brow, Ye Liangchen had to quicken his pace. “I know, you might find it hard to accept what I’m saying.”
“But it’s all true.”
A bitter smile crept onto Ye Liangchen’s lips. “Initially, I just wanted to approach you as an ordinary person, to save you.”
“But all I got in return was distance and misunderstanding.”
“Now I don’t want to pretend anymore. I’m laying it all out; I am your life’s redemption.”
Hu Yuying’s brow was tightly knitted. For the first time in her life, she felt an uncontrollable dislike for someone.
“First of all, I’m great. Secondly, I don’t need your redemption. If you keep following me and bothering me, I’ll tell my brother. I’m his little sidekick, and he’ll protect me.”
She pointed at Ye Liangchen, but even that felt inadequate; it was the most serious thing she could say at the moment...

**Chapter 65: I Am Who I Am, Loving Boldly and Hating Fiercely**
Ye Liangchen gazed deeply at Hu Yuying. She was still so beautiful, so adorable, still the treasure girl from his memories. Why then did she speak such cruel words to him?
He chuckled self-deprecatingly, then shook his head helplessly. “I know you might not be able to accept this right away, but it’s the truth.”
“The Long Ge you mentioned, if I’m not mistaken, should be Long Aotian.”
“Do you know what kind of person he is? Do you realize he’s manipulating you?”
At this point, Ye Liangchen shook his head with a bitter smile.
“No, you don’t know. You don’t know anything. You’re too innocent and kind-hearted to understand the malice in people’s hearts…”
“He just wants to drag you into the mire because only then can he completely possess you.”
“That kind of person is just a heartbreaker. Once he’s done playing with you, he’ll definitely go after someone else. By then, you’ll just be abandoned. Can’t you wake up to that?”
“Only I, only I am wholeheartedly good to you, wanting to lead you out of the darkness, your little sun of redemption…”
