If he can retain his memories, it's because of the system or his teacher's influence...
What about Chen Wenwen?
What kind of strange change happened to her that allowed her to remember the universe before it was completely rewritten?
Wait! There's an even more crucial point—
Chen Wenwen, how much of it does she actually remember?!
Everything that happened during the time rewind before the universe was completely rewritten...
Does she remember too?!
“Chen Wenwen,” he pressed, “do you still remember that miniature sun in the south of the city…?”
Upon hearing this, a hint of hesitation and struggle flashed across Chen Wenwen's face, and her clear eyes lowered slightly.
After a brief silence, she finally nodded, her voice soft but clear:
"Yes, I remember!"
Lu Mingfei's heart sank!
Almost the instant he confirmed it, he immediately released his grip on Chen Wenwen's shoulders.
He reacted very quickly, taking two steps back to create distance between them!
If he remembers correctly...
In that "one hour" covered by time rewind.
At that time, Chen Wenwen had strong feelings for him!
At this point in time when the universe is restarting.
He must never do anything that might cause misunderstanding or appear intimate!
Actually——
From Chen Wenwen's perspective, it was Lu Mingfei who allowed her to "preserve" this crucial memory!
Moreover, the moment consciousness regains clarity after the universe is reset and rewritten.
The first thing she did was urgently send a message to Lu Mingfei to inquire about his condition.
But he...did not reply!
Her unease prompted her to immediately try to contact Liu Miaomiao and Su Xiaoqiang again.
Unfortunately, the two of them... seem to have completely forgotten that harrowing experience!
In the end, she could only cautiously inquire about his current home address from within his class and from his past social circles.
After several twists and turns, the location was finally determined.
So she brought her own driver and came to visit...
Lu Mingfei fell silent, his inner shock surging like a tsunami.
He never expected that Chen Wenwen had retained her memories.
Moreover, even the memory of that one hour he rewound was preserved.
Chen Wenwen clearly sensed the sudden aloofness emanating from Lu Mingfei.
She was like a proud swan, biting her lower lip and lowering her head.
A bitter feeling spread through my heart.
She knew... that was only natural.
In a sense, her current sense of loss is the price she is paying for her past actions.
On the street, the man in sunglasses next to the Mercedes-Benz felt as if he were frozen by invisible ice when his eyes met Lu Mingfei's dazzling golden eyes. His muscles tensed up instantly like rocks!
A fear that originated from the very marrow of my bones surged forth wildly!
In his youthful arrogance, he had spent time on overseas battlefields.
There, he encountered a being with golden eyes!
His fighting skills, which he had honed for many years and was very proud of, were completely useless in the eyes of his opponent.
Although he was lucky enough to survive in the end.
But the overwhelming sense of absolute power and the deep-seated terror terrified him completely!
After that, he returned to China in despair and eventually became the driver and bodyguard of the eldest daughter of the Chen family, living a stable but ordinary life.
Unexpectedly, today... the apple of the Chen family's eye will be with such a young man with terrifying golden eyes...
Is there some connection?
Is this a blessing or a curse?!
The man in sunglasses didn't dare to breathe, standing still and not daring to approach or disturb the two.
Although deep down I wished I could leave work immediately and go home to escape this heart-pounding scene.
But he was even more aware that if he made any rash moves now, he might anger the boy.
This day next year will probably be the anniversary of my death.
Lu Mingfei's gaze swept indifferently over the stiff, statue-like man in sunglasses, finally settling on Chen Wenwen, who had her head bowed.
"You should go back." His voice was calm and even.
Chen Wenwen suddenly raised her head and met his eyes, which had lost their golden luster but were now even colder and more distant.
His lips moved a few times, but the words that had been piling up in his heart and the emotions that had been surging inside him seemed to be stuck in his throat, making him choke and unable to utter a single word.
Lu Mingfei looked at her struggling expression and sighed almost inaudibly.
He stopped talking, strode forward, and walked straight toward the black Mercedes S500.
Chen Wenwen followed him silently like a lost soul, each step heavy with despair.
Walking to the car, Lu Mingfei grabbed the cold door handle with his right hand and opened the heavy door.
He didn't say anything, but gestured for her to get in the car with his eyes.
The man in sunglasses, who had been tense all along, swiftly slipped into the driver's seat.
Chen Wenwen walked to the open car door but did not get in immediately.
She raised her head and looked at Lu Mingfei's profile again, her eyes reddening, and the tears she had been holding back finally burst forth.
Her voice was broken and fragmented by sobs, carrying her last vestiges of resentment and despair:
"Lu Mingfei... I... I can't do it?!"
Lu Mingfei finally turned his head to look directly into her tear-filled eyes.
His expression remained indifferent, and then he slowly shook his head.
“Some things,” he began, “are missed, and that’s it.”
After saying that, Lu Mingfei turned and walked into Chaoyang Internet Cafe.
He can't go back to the Liu family home now, and he doesn't want to go back to his aunt's house either, so he can only make do with spending the night in an internet cafe for now.
Upon seeing this, Chen Wenwen quickly wiped away her tears and hurried after him.
The man in sunglasses in the driver's seat stared blankly, wondering whether he should go back to this place or not.
Lu Mingfei sensed the little tail behind him and felt helpless.
He realized for the first time how persistent Chen Wenwen was!
He turned and left the internet cafe, but Chen Wenwen silently followed him.
The two walked one after the other on the street.
The Mercedes 500 glided slowly along the road, its speed just matching their walking pace.
Lu Mingfei finally couldn't hold back any longer.
"Chen Wenwen," he turned around, his tone slightly irritated, "what exactly do you want?"
Chen Wenwen looked up at him, her red eyes clearly visible to Lu Mingfei.
She didn't speak, but Lu Mingfei could sense the intense sense of loss and persistence emanating from her.
Lu Mingfei felt extremely overwhelmed.
He walked toward the Mercedes that was slowly gliding down the road.
The man in sunglasses reacted very quickly, slamming on the brakes, and the car came to a steady stop immediately.
Lu Mingfei opened the car door, plopped down in the passenger seat, rolled down the window, and looked at Chen Wenwen standing by the roadside. "Get in!"
A hint of joy flashed in Chen Wenwen's eyes. She immediately opened the back door and got in.
The car door slammed shut.
"Take her home!" Lu Mingfei ordered.
"Roger that!" the man in sunglasses replied loudly.
The Mercedes engine roared, like a black shark, accelerating down the road.
A secluded villa in the north of the city!
A black Mercedes-Benz 500 came to a steady stop in front of a luxuriously decorated, elegant three-story villa.
"Sir, we've arrived!" The man in sunglasses looked at Lu Mingfei beside him.
"Don't call me sir!" Lu Mingfei said calmly, his face expressionless.
"Okay, okay, I understand!" The man in sunglasses nodded quickly.
The man in sunglasses quickly got out of the car and tried to open the car door for Lu Mingfei.
But Lu Mingfei acted very quickly.
With a click, he opened the car door and got out.
Upon seeing this, Chen Wenwen quickly opened the car door and got out.
