“In the car?” Gong Fan frowned but didn’t say anything.
The boy explained, “We’re on the way home. School’s just ended for the day.”
“Oh.” When Gong Fan heard this, he stopped talking and closed his eyes to rest.
Not daring to speak, Little Yichen huddled in a corner, shivering. How could this guy switch personalities so easily? Good heavens. It seemed that he wouldn’t be able to badmouth Gong Fan in front of Youyou, because if Gong Fan were to hear it, he might not be able to bear the consequences.
Fortunately.
Little Yichen was glad he wasn’t bad-mouthing Gong Fan just then.
…
The swapping of personalities was an extremely quick process. Perhaps in the blink of an eye, Gong Fan would replace Youyou’s personality and occupy this body. Within a very short time frame, the personality might swap again.
When Yun Shishi got home and saw Youyou, she greeted him warmly, only to discover that the child in her arms had changed. He was not Youyou, but had become Gong Fan.
The woman was surprised, but she did not show it. She was worried that her reaction would be so abrupt that Gong Fan would misunderstand and think that she did not welcome his personality.
Gong Fan was an extremely sensitive personality. Perhaps it was because of his inferiority complex, uneasiness, and an unstable life that resulted in his depressed state of mind. He’d always believed he was persona non grata. And so, upon Youyou’s return, his level of sensitivity had escalated.
In fact, before Yun Shishi went to bed that night, she told the two children a bedtime story as usual. Before she left, she leaned over to give him a goodnight kiss. Gong Fan wrapped himself in the blanket and finally asked uneasily, “Mommy, will you not love me anymore?”
She was not surprised by his question, but she was surprised by the depth of his emotion, the sense of loss that she detected in him.
......
Youyou was back. From now on, he would never be the most special one. He would have to share her love with Yueyao and Little Yichen, but at the same time, he would have to share it with Youyou.
He felt that it was unfair, but there was nothing he could do about it. In fact, he felt that the boy was being charitable by retaining his personality. On the one hand, he rejected this charity. On the other, he yearned for the charity.
That time, in his sleep, he had awakened Youyou’s personality. He had even used his mind to induce it to kill him.
But just as he was about to suffocate, tears began to flow. He began to feel uneasy, reluctant, unwilling to let go. He missed the warmth of his mother and the Mu family. Even if he had to struggle at death’s door and beg for mercy, he wanted a place in this body. He didn’t need too much warmth. Even a goodnight kiss made him yearn for this world.
Finally, he compromised. He gave in to his own greed. For once, he aside his arrogance and revealed a humility he had never shown before.
“Let me stay, please?”
Youyou’s heart ached when he heard the plea, and he embraced him. At this point, the two personalities merged and coexisted.
Youyou knew that keeping Gong Fan’s personality would be an overload on his mental strength. His body would be overwhelmed for sure.
Such a burden should have been eliminated in one fell swoop when Gong Fan revealed his weak side. But he couldn’t bring himself to do it.
