Chapter 1406: Chapter 553 Unfinished Words_2 Chapter 1406: Chapter 553 Unfinished Words_2 At this moment, Yan Fei was very naive; he had not yet learned to deal with complex interpersonal relationships, nor did he possess the ability to read people's expressions and words. What he didn't know was that Lu Pingping, at this time due to drunkenness, was in a brief state of unconsciousness, the reason she still stood without falling, seeming to stare at him, was nothing but a final breath of strength keeping her upright.

Seeing Lu Pingping say those words and then fall silent, Yan Fei became somewhat panicked. He hugged the book he was holding close to his chest and said, “Pingping, I haven't finished reading this book yet; I'll head back first. You should rest early too!”

After a pause, Yan Fei added, “Pingping, I hope we can still be good friends in the future.”

After hurriedly saying this, Yan Fei fled from the Academic Forest. When he was at a distance, he even tripped over a stone on the ground, but he immediately got up and hobbled away.

Only after Yan Fei had disappeared did Lu Pingping slowly come to from her chaotic state. After getting through that most difficult ordeal, Lu Pingping began to shake off the trouble of drunkenness. As time continued to pass, she became more and more sober. Although she had been in a state of chaos previously, she had heard every word Yan Fei said clearly.

Once Lu Pingping regained her motor skills, it was as if a floodgate had been opened in her mind, strange memories awakened from slumber, and then she remembered something once forgotten.

Back in university, Lu Pingping once went home to deal with the matter of her property being seized. After waking up from her family's bed, a strange memory appeared in her head. That memory was of her recent encounter with Yan Fei in the Academic Forest and the conversation that had taken place between them, identical to the event that just happened.

At that time, Lu Pingping didn't know what had occurred and thought she had a strange dream. But when she returned to university, she noticed that although Yan Fei was equally warm to her and they remained the best of friends, the sweet feeling between lovers was gone.

Lu Pingping vaguely felt that the change in Yan Fei's attitude was related to the memory that had emerged in her mind. She intended to seek clarification from Yan Fei, but the memory felt so real that she doubted it was her own doing, completely unsure of how to explain to Yan Fei. As time went by, Lu Pingping only became less courageous to explain, resulting in the current situation…

That strange memory had been very clear in Lu Pingping's mind during her student days, but as time passed, the memory of the bizarre dream began to fade, and she started to forget some details of it. She had initially remembered that the man in the bizarre dream was actually Yan Fei, but later on, she completely forgot that fact. Eventually, she even forgot the entire dream.

However, for some reason, a vague impression that she had a boyfriend remained in her memory, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't recall who that boyfriend was. This was also the reason Lu Pingping felt she should have a boyfriend while discussing the topic of Yan Fei with Yang Qi. Similarly, each time Yan Fei asked her about her boyfriend, she could only give an awkward and perfunctory response.

This memory had been completely forgotten by Lu Pingping, but under the stimulus of the same scene, she once again awoke to the content of that bizarre dream, this time having experienced the scene personally, leaving a deep impression on her memory, ensuring she would not forget again…

Lu Pingping could not afford to carefully consider why such a scenario occurred; she wanted to quickly catch up with Yan Fei to clear up the misunderstanding. But just as she was about to take a step in pursuit, a breeze blew by, lifting a newspaper from the ground and sending it flying towards her face.

Having overcome her drunkenness, Lu Pingping's body slowly returned to normal. She reached out and caught the newspaper mid-air. Just as she was about to throw it away, she noticed the date on the newspaper. It was from seven years ago, at a time when she was in her fourth year at university, the year the Genius Class of China was disbanded. The newspaper was very new, emitting the scent of fresh ink, clearly issued seven years prior.

Seeing the date on the newspaper, Lu Pingping finally snapped out of her daze, then felt a sense of horror. That newspaper from seven years ago, including the recently seen youthful Yan Fei, were evidence that she had unknowingly traveled through time, from the future Dream Island era back to the past, where she encountered the university-era Yan Fei.

But this time, the trans-temporal contact clearly went wrong. Lu Pingping originally wanted to convey her feelings to Yan Fei, but for various reasons, her plan went awry during the process. Being drunk, Lu Pingping, who usually made her point concisely, rambled on and didn't get to the main point. As a result, at the critical moment she failed to complete an important sentence, leading to a misunderstanding by Yan Fei in this era, who thought Lu Pingping had found a lover, inadvertently complicating matters further.

The bizarre time travel was shocking enough for Lu Pingping, but what stunned her more was the fact that the memories, which were supposed to occur in her future, inexplicably appeared in the mind of her younger, student self. Since her younger self was clueless about the whole situation, and even though she knew there was a misunderstanding involved, she had no idea how to explain it to Yan Fei. Consequently, the misunderstanding escalated, resulting in all the subsequent unpleasantness.

After sobering up, Lu Pingping suddenly realized that she had not lost her memory, nor had it been altered; there was simply a gap in her normal recollections, a void with no content whatsoever. This gap corresponded to the event tonight, and the reason it was considered a gap was that for the student-era Lu Pingping, this event had not yet transpired.

It was only when the future Lu Pingping traveled back to the past, and met with the past Yan Fei, that the event actually took place. For some unexplained reason, when the two Lu Pingpings existed in the same timeline, they shared the memory of the event that unfolded in that timeline, giving the student-era Lu Pingping what seemed to be memories of a bizarre dream.

However, since the memories weren't experienced firsthand, they were unstable, and that's why the memories from the university-era Lu Pingping faded with time. It wasn't until that evening when the past Lu Pingping grew into the future Lu Pingping and personally went through the event that the memories were finally made whole. They filled the gap in her memory and completed Lu Pingping's recollections.

It was at that point that Lu Pingping finally understood what had actually happened between herself and Yan Fei. The mysterious visitor had warned her that the truth behind the event might upset her and that she should take care, but the overconfident Lu Pingping of the time did not take this warning to heart.

But after Lu Pingping met the student-era Yan Fei and, due to drunkenness, turned a promising situation into a mess, directing this drama of misunderstanding herself, she then discovered the painful truth beneath all appearances.

Lu Pingping's failure to finish that one sentence created a huge misunderstanding with Yan Fei, leading in reality to their separation. It was this breakup that not only caused Lu Pingping to move far away to Beijing but also left Yan Fei in Shanghai heartbroken for years. Separated by distance, they wasted precious years of their lives.

Even though Yan Fei might not have excelled in his studies in the Genius Class, he still had an advantage over other university graduates and could easily find a satisfactory job if he wished. But because of Lu Pingping, Yan Fei became disheartened and turned into an otaku, giving up the knowledge he worked hard to learn in the Genius Class. His life would have been wasted if not for a fortuitous encounter later on.

Strictly speaking, Lu Pingping was the one who ruined her own love; she was the instigator of all the events. It was this realization that led the mysterious visitor to say the truth about the event would bring her sorrow.

Indeed, upon learning the so-called truth, Lu Pingping truly fell into a state of self-blame and sadness…

Friends came over to the house, and we made plans to go out, completely ruining my writing plan for the vacation. However, as long as there's a chance, I'll still find time to write and try to upload some content every day.
