Chapter 158: — She was back.

Go back to your world. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

Go back home.

Yu Ru Bing was frozen in place.

Go home, these were the two words that she most constantly had in mind ever since she became the Yu Ru Bing of this world.

Did she want to go back?

She did, at the beginning, but it was only at the beginning.

Currently she just wanted to go back to Tang Han Qiu, that was where her home right now.

People tend to go to places that benefits them, but in her world, she was alone and boundlessly lonely. In Tang Han Qiu’s world, she had everything she needed, and had a happy life, so why would she go back?

Most importantly, in her world, there was no Tang Han Qiu.

She was no longer the old Yu Ru Bing who could go through life by herself, she wanted Tang Han Qiu, and she wanted to spend her life with Tang Han Qiu forever.

Wherever Tang Han Qiu was, is where she would be.

But it’s not impossible for her to come back, because 008 had once told her that she would find a solution if she looks for the Space and Time Administration.

As long as there was a way, she would not panic.

Yu Ru Bing looked at the woman leaning against the door and asked, “Are you certain that you will send me back home?”

To definitely send her back, instead of doing some kind of trick?

Lord Goddess suddenly smiled: “Certainly.”

“In order to compensate you, I also plan to give you a present, something that you will love.”

Yu Ru Bing’s first reaction was— this isn’t that simple. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

Yu Ru Bing became wary: “Oh, really? I don’t believe it.”

The Goddess regarded Tang Han Qiu as a plaything, also confidently heightening the feeling of greed in each host, even when that person wasn’t like that.

A person who was extremely confident and absolutely prideful, so proud that she would not allow anyone to disobey her or even ruin her “toys”.

Should be very annoyed with her, how could she kindly give her a present?

Goddess: “…”

Doesn’t her tone of voice sound too rude?

Yu Ru Bing simply refused altogether: “Sigh, just send me back, forget about giving me a present, there’s no need for bells and whistles¹.”

God knows what distasteful stuff you would bring, don’t waste the time that I could be using to look for the Space and Time Administration, thank you.

“No, if I want to give, you have to accept it, no one can refuse me.” The Goddess raised her hand and pressed a small panel on the door.

Yu Ru Bing was startled: “Are you acting like an overbearing president?!”

This was being quite overbearing! Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

The Goddess did not answer her.

And then, she suddenly felt an intense pain at the back of her neck, as if it had been pricked by something, and her vision completely became dark.

It was simply overwhelming.

The moment she collapsed, Yu Ru Bing was still thinking: Motherf—ing dog of a Lord Goddess, actually playing dirty…

…..

When Yu Ru Bing opened her eyes again, she found that the darkness around her had dissipated from the warm and bright light, and she was standing in an entrance hall, as soon as she looked up, she saw the good fortune² character posted on the door.

The paper looked a little worn out, brimming with the sense of having endured the passage of time throughout the years.

It also looked familiar. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

The doorway…

It’s just like……

“You’re back.”

A man’s voice came from behind her, deep and familiar.

Yu Ru Bing abruptly looked back, the man who had already left her for more than ten years, was wearing an apron around his waist, he was holding a plate of fried meat with green peppers as he came out from the old kitchen with the familiar deep and shallow footsteps from her memory.

He placed the food on the table, and wiped his hands on the apron, then he turned back to look at her, waving towards her: “Take off your shoes, then go wash your hands, it’s time to eat.”

Yu Ru Bing without blinking stared at the face that had already been deeply engraved in the deepest part of her heart, her mood gradually became agitated, and she didn’t dare to even blink. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

— In order to compensate you, I also plan to give you a present, something that you will love.

This was probably the present that the Goddess was talking about.

Sending her to the past, and sending Lao Yu to her side.

She still clearly remembered what today was— this was the day that Lao Yu left her.

She understood this present, but could she refuse it?

She couldn’t.

The Lord Goddess would not let her refuse, and her heart also wouldn’t.

She hasn’t seen Lao Yu for a long time… Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

She stood at the entrance, reluctantly unwilling to part with the vision of her father who had long ago become a memory, and she just stood there like a piece of wood.

Lao Yu looked at her being in a daze, and couldn’t help asking: “This kid, why are you standing there at the doorway in a daze?”

“Quickly take off your shoes, then go wash your hands and eat.” It was the same urging like before.

Yu Ru Bing slowly blinked her eyes, she unconsciously choked with emotions, with her nose feeling a bit sour as she responded: “En…”

She slowly took off her boots, put on a pair of candy-patterned fluffy slippers, then took off her pink coat, and hung it adeptly on the clothes rack.

Then she suddenly stopped, her eyes falling on the pink coat.

After she ran away from home, Lao Yu brought this coat when he came to look for her… along with two pieces of candy.

When she was angry, he would use two pieces of candy to coax her, coax her until she felt okay.

It’s just that Lao Yu couldn’t give her those two pieces of candies in the end.

Lao Yu brought out another dish from the kitchen, and when he saw her in front of the clothes rack, he curiously asked, “What’s the matter, why are you in a daze again? Are you afraid that Dad will scold you?”

Today, she scolded that fat aunt until she cried, and that fat aunt had come to complain to him.

He was quite angry at first and planned to give her a good lecture tonight, but seeing her dazed and cautious appearance, his heart couldn’t help but soften. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

In the end she was his own child, how could he be willing to say harsh words…

“Dad won’t scold you, go wash your hands and eat.”

Yu Ru Bing replied softly: “Okay.” Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

She walked into the bathroom, and obediently washed her hands in silence, then went back to the kitchen to help Lao Yu bring out the dishes.

While sitting at the dining table, she watched as Lao Yu, who was on the opposite side, pick out dishes for herself, making Yu Ru Bing feel like this was a lifetime ago.

Lao Yu picked out food for her while saying: “You students work very hard, so you have to eat more, otherwise your brain won’t work!”

— You have to memorize your lines later, and you have to prepare for your defense, it will be a lot of hard work, eat more. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

— Don’t let me see you lose weight.

Yu Ru Bing’s eyes flickered, and she suddenly thought of Tang Han Qiu.

She really wanted to bring her home and introduce her to Lao Yu…

She wanted tell Lao Yu: “Lao Yu take a look, this is my girlfriend, isn’t she pretty?”

But she… couldn’t.

She lowered her eyes, moved her chopsticks, and picked some dishes for Lao Yu: “Lao Yu, you have worked hard too, eat more.” Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

“Also,” she said, “I’m sorry.”

I shouldn’t have quarreled with you that day.

I shouldn’t have so impulsively run away from home.

I shouldn’t have… Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

Caused harm to you…

I’m such a horrible daughter…

Her expression was full of guilt, her whole person looked very lonely, weary, and unmotivated, seeming to have gone through wind and frost³, seen a lot of bad things, and her heart had been heavily battered.

“I am not a good daughter.” She said. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

Lao Yu put down his bowl and gently patted her on the back: “But Dad feels that you are.”

Yu Ru Bing slowly turned her head to look at him.

He patted her back and said, “Lao Yu thinks Xiao Yu⁴ is a good daughter.” Then added, “Although she sometimes gives Lao Yu a headache.”

Yu Ru Bing finally laughed, she smiled and said: “Lao Yu, in the future let’s not quarrel anymore, okay?”

Lao Yu smiled and said, “Not quarrelling is naturally good.”

Yu Ru Bing smiled with her eyes curved: “It’s so cold outside, Lao Yu.”

She also said this to Lao Yu that day as he was lying on the ground, but Lao Yu ignored her.

Sitting here today, when she said this to Lao Yu again, Lao Yu got up and brought her a hot water bottle, and directly put it into her arms: “Use this first, hurry and take a hot bath after eating, get your body nice and warm.” Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

The hot water bottle felt warm, as if it had just been prepared, it was very warm in her arm and was especially comfortable.

She was perfectly content in warming her hands, then stuffed the hot water bottle in Lao Yu’s arms, and said with a smile: “I already warmed up, it’s your turn. It’s cold outside, don’t catch a cold, and don’t lie on the ground, you’ll freeze.”

Lao Yu became dissatisfied when he heard this, then put the hot water bottle back into her arms, and said, “Your dad is in good health!” Then proudly patted his chest, “I am very strong!”

“Even if I was to lie on the floor I won’t freeze, you can rest assured!”

“En.” Yu Ru Bing gently replied, “My Lao Yu is healthy and strong, and he will definitely live a long life!”

Lao Yu said: “My Xiao Yu too, you will grow up healthy.” Then pointed at her mouth, “You have to take care of your teeth.” Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

Eating too much sweets, your teeth may decay.

Yu Ru Bing immediately opened her mouth and showed him her teeth: “My teeth are fine, look, it’s very hard!”

Since she was little her teeth had been unbelievably good, and it hadn’t turn bad.

“Okay, okay, hurry up and eat!” Lao Yu very perfunctorily replied.

Yu Ru Bing snorted: “Very half-hearted.” Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

After dinner, Yu Ru Bing washed the dishes before taking a shower, and when she came out, she saw Lao Yu sitting in the living room watching TV, he hadn’t talk to her about the issue with the fat aunt all night.

Yu Ru Bing took the initiative to walk over, sat beside him, took his arm and leaned on his shoulder.

Lao Yu felt that she seemed to be a different person today, very melancholic: “What’s the matter, did you get bullied?”

Yu Ru Bing smiled and said, “Who would bully and not get scolded by me?”

Lao Yu poked her nose after hearing this, “Oh you, sigh.” After that, he didn’t say anything else.

Yu Ru Bing grinned and suddenly said: “Lao Yu, I want to eat candy, give me two.”

Lao Yu pointed to the box of candies on the table: “If you want to eat, go take it yourself!”

Yu Ru Bing was unwilling, and acted spoiled: “I won’t, I want you to give it to me.”

Lao Yu didn’t know what to do with her, so he stood up and got her two pieces of candy, then Yu Ru Bing added: “Just two, like the typical amount you bring to usually coax me.” Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

Lao Yu gave her two small candies that he would use to specially coax her: “Remember to brush your teeth after eating.”

Yu Ru Bing took the little candies, then moving slowly, she patiently tore the candy wrapper, eating them one by one, and then smiled and said, “It’s delicious, Lao Yu.”

The candy that you weren’t able to get me to eat back then, I now have.

It’s really delicious. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

This sweet taste was exactly the same as the candies she had eaten before she had turned sixteen.

She smiled in satisfaction, and her sight gradually blurred, then big drops of tears began to fall down, she couldn’t help it.

“I’m sorry Lao Yu.” Her young face was filled with tears, she wanted to laugh but couldn’t, she could only lower her eyes and cry while saying, “I will definitely grow up healthy.”

“If there is a next life, let’s be father and daughter again.”

“At that time, I will be obedient and stop making you angry anymore.”

She plucked up the courage to raise her tear-filled eyes, and tried her best to force out a bright smile: “I’m sorry Lao Yu, I am very happy to see you, but I have to hurry back to her side…”

Her Lao Yu had already left and would never come back again.

So this present was just an illusion. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

As 008 said, no one has the ability to turn back time.

No one, including the Lord Goddess.

But to have seen Lao Yu once again, she was already satisfied and did not have any regrets.

The deceased are gone, so you should cherish those who were still by your side, she couldn’t stay here, she had to quickly return to Tang Han Qiu’s side.

The last crystal teardrop slipped from her cheek, and the bright light inside it was smudged with the thick ink of boundless darkness. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

When Yu Ru Bing opened her eyes again, she was standing inside Hua Yao.

And Tang Han Qiu was standing in front of her, making a phone call with her back facing her.

— She was back. Ple ase re ad at Yu ri Trans lations

===========================

The author has something to say:

Hai, I did say that the both of them won’t be oppressed, that’s right, because the system is not human.

Also where can there be any oppression! Don’t panic!

[The desire to survive has let me make everyone keep calm? Because I found that my idea of oppression is different from everyone… I think it’s nothing, but people will feel that it’s childishly tyrannical? (Calm analysis. jpg)]
