Chapter 1197 - 1194
Just like the lyrics he wrote—Our encounter was too sudden, everything is a matter of fate.
His meeting with Bi Xia was just like with Fourth Brother, it began with an accident.
But one came at the right time, and the other came at the wrong time...
Nonetheless, it’s fine, Xu Renfei thought in a daze. Xu Renfei had been timid his entire life, shrinking into himself and disguising himself since his mother’s death, crafting an image of a carefree playboy, just to survive in that Xu Family.
He once did what he wanted, which was entering the entertainment industry to play with music he loved, but he never found a sense of belonging there because he knew that one day, he would leave. When he leaves, the battle within the Xu Family will be over for good.
If he wins, he lives.
If he loses, he dies.
He even planned it all out, knowing that the potential heirs to the Xu Family were just two: himself and An Yi, the one who was officially a stepson but actually his father’s illegitimate son.
If he won, he would send the unpleasant family of three abroad with a sum of money, watching over the Xu Family himself bit by bit. He might not have the ability to develop the Xu Family as well as his grandparents did, but he would at least ensure it wouldn’t go bankrupt, and then he would live on.
When he was old, he would adopt a child, cultivate them into an heir, then set out on his own, finally ending by finding a seaside place to cast himself into the sea.
If he lost, everything would be simpler.
He would go to another world to continue being a singer, sing songs, and then see if his mother had reincarnated. If she had, he would find the family she reincarnated into and take a peek at her current life. If it’s good, he would reincarnate into her womb again. For leaving him early in this life, she had to raise him anew in the next one.
If her life wasn’t good, Xu Renfei would still reincarnate into her womb, and he’d tell her, "You had a bad life last time; your son was too young to protect you. In this life, don’t be afraid, your son is here."
But if his mother hadn’t reincarnated, Xu Renfei would take her to see all the glorious landscapes of the other world and then reincarnate together, becoming her older brother, protecting her well and finding someone she could truly rely on, so she wouldn’t repeat her fate in this life.
Honestly, Xu Renfei was such a person—cowardly, timid, always just thinking about things. Given the choice between living and dying, he found dying simpler, but... he was afraid of dying.
Until he met Bi Xia, who, even at the bottom, with life treating her so poorly, managed to hold everything up. Just that alone made Xu Renfei find her unattainable.
Falling for Bi Xia was within reason, but it was also something Xu Renfei didn’t expect.
He knew he couldn’t resist someone like Bi Xia, so he never faced the changes in his feelings for her, choosing instead to suppress and conceal them. But unexpectedly, once he confronted those feelings, it was like a volcanic eruption, impossible to ignore.
But so what if he couldn’t ignore it, so what if he liked her? He wouldn’t pierce that veil. Rather than being lovers, he would prefer to be her Little Fei. To put it bluntly, when lovers break up, they might not even be friends anymore, but friends, even if they fight, as long as the friendship remains, are forever friends.
After the two recordings finished playing, a young hum of a singsong voice came from the phone. Xu Renfei was slightly startled; it was secretly recorded in the car. For some reason, the tears that had stopped started flowing more and more, Xu Renfei bit his teeth, never expecting that he, Xu Renfei, would still have the capacity to indulge in something as uncool as an unrequited love.
Most importantly... it ended before it even began, giving him no buffer at all...
But Xu Renfei thought about it again, forget it. Xu Renfei, for this one night, just cry your heart out, and after this cry, lay this emotion quietly upon your heart. Your affection would bring trouble for many people; Little Jiu’er and Fourth Brother are so good, you shouldn’t add any trouble, and besides...
Fourth Brother, being such a vengeful person, certainly wouldn’t spare anyone who has eyes on Little Jiu’er, and you can’t beat him!
"Little Fei, I hope you receive everyone’s respect, and that all disasters and setbacks stay away from you, with luck always on your side."
This sentence slowly flowed from the phone, like an awl stabbing into his heart. Xu Renfei didn’t bother to be cool, letting the tears flow. Damn you, Bi Xiaojiu! Don’t be so nice to me; I don’t want to like you at all! Don’t say you’re a man, even if you told me you were a woman, I still wouldn’t want to like you!
Because...
From now on, Seventh Young Master Xu can no longer be the carefree Little Flying Hero!
