How could things have turned out this way?
Youyou… She really thought that Youyou was back! She really thought that the gentle Youyou of the past was back! However, in the blink of an eye, he had gone back to being that cold, emotionless person.
“How did this happen?” Yun Shishi said anxiously, “Just now, it was clearly Youyou…” She cried with heartache and said to Mu Yazhe, “I just heard Youyou calling me ‘mommy *…”
The man felt a dull ache in his heart as well. He put his arms around Yun Shishi and kissed her forehead. “Shishi, don’t be like this. Don’t be anxious. Didn’t we say to take it slow?”
She turned to look at the child in her arms and suddenly begged, “Please! Let Youyou come back, okay?! I wish to see Youyou, I wish to see Youyou…”
She had no idea what nonsense she was spouting! Her thoughts were in turmoil. The only thing she could sense was that there seemed to be two souls residing in this child’s body.
‘One was the former Youyou. The other was the present Youyou, who had been given the name “Gong Fan”. She missed the Youyou of the past, and wanted to see him again and hear him call her ‘mommy’. She wanted that Youyou to return. She had been waiting patiently all this while!
But
Her hopes were dashed again! Her disappointed expression undoubtedly agitated the child.
The child looked at her coldly and finally spoke. “I’m not Youyou.”
“Then, can you let Youyou come back?”
Yun Shishi humbled herself as much as she could and was practically begging him!
The child suddenly felt extremely annoyed!
Youyou, Youyou, Youyou… Listening to this name that did not belong to him every day made his ears grow calluses!
So it seemed this woman treated him so gently only because she wanted to wake up that “Youyou”?!
Who she needed was this “Youyou’, and the same went for Yun Shishi, Mu Yazhe, and Yueyao.
All of them wanted the other “Youyou, and not him.
‘The strange thing was that he was actually moved by her gentleness. He even instinctively yearned for her warmth and tenderness. Instinctively, he wanted to rely on her and… hug her!
However, right from the onset, he had been treated as another “Youyou’! What she needed, what she loved, what she missed, was never him! All along, he had been needed’, cared for, and loved because they wanted to find the shadow of the other “Youyou” in him! It was as if this body had always
belonged to “Youyou’, while he was treated as an invader. He dominated this body and was treated as an enemy!
He has never been needed. To the extent that he was even rejected? Abhorred? And detested! He also had hoped to work hard to adapt to the role of “Youyou”. But he was not Youyou! So… stop calling him Youyou!
‘The child was anxious and frustrated. He pushed her away abruptly. “I told you! I’m not Youyou!”
Yun Shishi fell to the ground in shock! Mu Yazhe looked at the boy in disbelief as well. He did not expect him to return to that cold personality of when he first came home! The child was clearly losing control of his emotions!
He stood up, his body swaying slightly. The child struggled to regain his balance and turned to look at Yun Shishi. He said in disappointment and anger, “Don’t call me by that name again! I’m not Youyou, I’m not!”
“Youyou.
The child trembled and suddenly interrupted, “That’s enough!”
