I'm a nightmare?
Hearing this, Yu Meng became angry again.
Tan Yubai pursed his lips, as though he did not have much energy, and could even stutter out words.
When he said this, his face was downcast and his mouth was full of bitterness.
Yu Meng also felt a little sour in her heart.
"Little Meng." Tan Yubai suddenly called her name.
"I'm here."
"If I can't leave this drug for the rest of my life, if people become more and more unreasonable, more and more irritable and rude, you'll always be like this, deliberately avoiding me, won't you?"
Yu Meng thought about it.
"You were an unreasonable person in the past. You had a person that was very irritable and irritable."
Tan Yubai asked seriously, but Yu Meng started to joke.
"I'm serious." Tan Yubai said.
"I'm serious too." Yu Meng your sincere eyes looked towards Tan Yubai. "I've followed behind you for so many years, I can see you the most clearly. You're that kind of person."
"But..." Yu Meng took a deep breath, "Xiao Bai, I won't leave you or not love you just because of what you've become." Yu Meng's eyes sparkled as she spoke with sincerity. "I'm just too tired and my mind is in a mess. I'm very confused."
"I understand." Tan Yubai raised his hand and touched Yu Meng's cheek with the back of his hand.
"Go to bed."
Yu Meng stood up. This time, she was not angry, nor did she think of staying by Tan Yubai's side. She turned around and said, "Good night."
This time, she seemed to be sleeping soundly. When she opened her eyes, it was already noon of the next day.
When Yu Meng walked out of the house, Tan Yubai was already standing in the courtyard.
She was surprised that he hadn't eaten anything in the past few days. How could his body heal so quickly?
There was still food on the table. Yu Meng took a sandwich and ate it while standing beside Tan Yubai.
"What happened? Did you buy it?"
Tan Yubai turned his head and looked at Yu Meng, shaking his head.
"No." Tan Yubai opened his mouth: "Shen Nian and the others are here. They brought them here."
Yu Meng was shocked, "So fast? They arrived so quickly? " She looked around and asked, "Where?"
"They're nearby. See if they can find the car."
"What?"
Looking for a car? Yu Meng frowned and asked, "Are you leaving?"
Tan Yubai nodded.
Yu Meng's beautiful eyes suddenly lit up.
"Can we return home now?!"
Tan Yubai, however, could not help but lower his eyes. "Not yet …"
"Why? Is it because of Lu Youhuai? "
Tan Yubai nodded. "I will only be able to return after LTTE has collapsed and Lu Youhuai has truly died a miserable death."
Yu Meng suddenly felt that her wait was too far away.
"But right now, he is already in deep danger. He will definitely meet a very tragic end."
Tan Yubai heaved a heavy sigh.
"Xiao Meng, I'm sorry..." He slowly spoke out, "It's just that Lu Youhuai is cunning and despicable, without personally witnessing it, I cannot rest at ease."
"Then what about me … …" Yu Meng's eyes were filled with grief, "Are you willing to let me stay like this, day after day, in fear and nervousness?"
"Of course I don't want to." Tan Yubai turned around and raised his hand, wanting to touch Yu Meng's cheek. But just as he raised his hand, he put it down.
"You're selfish." Yu Meng could no longer hold it in. She raised her head and expressionlessly said these words to him.
Then, his body brushed past Tan Yubai's shoulder, and he left without looking back.
Shen Nian and Su Yu had just returned, seeing Yu Meng walking out angrily, Su Yu had initially wanted to follow her, but was stopped by Tan Yubai.
He whispered something into Su Yu's ear, and then released Su Yu's arm.
"It's up to you."
Su Yu looked at Tan Yubai, his expression complex.
He asked, "Are you sure that by doing this, Yu Meng will forgive you in the future?"
Tan Yubai lowered his head bitterly.
"I am no longer worthy of her forgiveness." He had hurt her so many times, and twice in a row he had tried to kill her.
What right did he have to ask for forgiveness?
At this point, he could only hope that she would be safe.
"Yu Meng!"
Yu Meng stopped at a place not far from the teahouse. She heard someone call her from behind, so she turned around to look.
"Su Yu." Yu Meng forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. I'll be back soon. You can go back by yourself."
Su Yu seemed to have something to say, but he did not.
Looking at his expression, Yu Meng could roughly guess what he was thinking.
She walked towards Su Yu.
"Did the two of them leave me behind again?"
Su Yu did not answer, but his silence was proof of the problem.
Yu Meng's heart sank.
"How many times has it been?" Yu Meng shook her head and smiled sympathetically, "How many times has he left me here?"
"He even said that he would never give up on me. He really did do what he said." As Yu Meng read the words' keep it to what you say ', she gritted her teeth with a strong sense of irony.
"Yu Meng …" Su Yu hesitated for a while, but still answered: "They're doing this for our own good. If we follow them, other than increasing the danger, there's nothing else we can do."
"He told me to take care of you because he was afraid that you would get hurt." Su Yu said, "He never abandoned you, and he always used all his strength to come back and find you."
"Why are you talking to him now?" Yu Meng looked at Su Yu. "That's weird."
Su Yu laughed bitterly, he thought, in this situation, he couldn't possibly say that Tan Yubai's situation was bad.
Su Yu and Yu Meng were walking side by side on the empty ground. There were shrapnel, iron, tree branches, and potholes on the ground around him. They were old objects that had been left behind by time.
After walking for a very, very long time, Yu Meng was tired. She rubbed her belly and stopped.
"I'm hungry, Su Yu."
"Then let's go back." Su Yu half squatted and patted his back: "Do you want me to carry you? We have walked for a long time, and I'm afraid we still have a long way to go."
Yu Meng hesitated for a few seconds. Nodding.
She climbed onto Su Yu's back and buried her head into his shoulders. His shoulders were not considered thick, but they were still very warm. Su Yu was thinner than him, and his muscles were not as muscular as hers.
At that moment, she could not hold back her tears any longer. Her large teardrops fell down and landed beside Su Yu's feet.
Su Yu was shocked.
"What's wrong?" He tilted his head and turned to ask her, "Why are you crying all of a sudden?"
Yu Meng wiped her tears casually on Su Yu's back and choked with sobs, "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that it's been a long time since someone had carried me like this."
Su Yu carried Yu Meng and walked forward step by step in this quiet and empty land. The night sky slowly fell and two people who had left their homes before had stepped into the darkness.
"Su Yu, I'm sorry." Yu Meng's voice was very soft and weak.
"Why are you apologizing?" Su Yu said half-jokingly: "Is it because I'm too fat that you're afraid to crush me?"
This joke was not funny at all, because Yu Meng was not fat at all. In the past few days in Sri Lanka, she was practically unrecognizable.
"It's all my fault. I dragged you here and now you've suffered so much."
Su Yu laughed, "Then, how about we go back now?"
Yu Meng fell silent, not knowing how to reply.
"Su Yu, why don't you …"
"I can't go back by myself." He suddenly interrupted Yu Meng. "Just like how you would not abandon Tan Yubai and leave no matter what happens."
"Thank you, Su Yu."
That day, Yu Meng fell asleep while resting her head on Su Yu's shoulder. She didn't seem to know when she had returned to the teahouse, nor did she know when she was lying on the bed. It was even during those few days where she was waiting for news on Tan Yubai and Tan Yubai.
She was stiff, like an empty shell whose soul had been extracted. This was how Yu Meng felt about herself.
She only remembered that Su Yu had brought news of Lu Youhuai's death as well as news of LTTE's collapse. They had finally gotten their wish and could return home.
However, Yu Meng didn't want to go back …
Su Yu was probably the only one who understood how these years of daydreams worked. She was like a walking corpse, eating, sleeping, and walking, all thanks to Su Yu accompanying her, reminding her, and helping her out.
For a while, Yu Meng was in a daze. She didn't know how to pick up the chopsticks in her hands.
Should he bend his body or should he stand up?
Yu Meng felt that she had gone mad. That's right, she had been driven mad by Tan Yubai's self-righteousness time and time again.
In the end, Yu Meng wasn't as excited as she had thought she would be, even though she had been met with difficulties and met with rewards. Their efforts had finally come true.
She and Su Yu had been waiting in the dilapidated teahouse. After the news was released, Tan Yubai and Shen Nian would be back soon to look for them.
But Remnant Dream left, walking away on a misty morning.
She didn't know where she was going nor how hard the road ahead would be to walk on. However, she was stubborn enough to leave when Shen Nian said that she might be fooling around and being childish again.
She wanted Tan Yubai to have a taste of her own taste, wanted him to be unable to explain himself to her.
When she comes back, she would also tell Tan Yubai sincerely, "I won't take you with me, I'm just afraid that you'll suffer alongside me. I hope that you'll wait for me where you are, until I'll definitely work hard to come back for you."
But if I am unfortunate enough to be in danger on the road, you must also believe that I have done my best to survive and come back to you.
Tan Yubai, I have too many things that I can't do.
