[Transfer Complete!]

Upon the transfer completion, Hei Anjing was once again pulled inside the small star leaving the system space to complete his task in the next world found inside the star.

Groggily opening his eyes, Hei Anjing heard the sounds of machines beeping in his ears. As he woke up, he was welcomed by a white room, beside his bed is a heart indicator that monitors his heartbeat. Few drips were connected to both of his hands as he saw that his hands were both bondage with white gauze and he couldnʼt feel his fingers completely but when he tried to, he couldnʼt stop his hand from trembling. His hands were obviously crippled.

After looking around a few more times, Hei Anjing knows that he is inside the hospital. When the nurse saw him awake, she ran out of the room to call for the doctor while the nurse was assigned to call his relatives.

Hei Anjing spoke, ”Exe, the memories of this body.”

[Please wait for a minute. I will prepare it for the host.]

[(World Plot) Wu Xue, the abandoned little prince of Wu Clan. Wu Clan is one of the best families that hold a position in the Music Society. He is, Wan Lengya, the protagonist gongʼs childhood friend and husband in paper. The Wan and Wu family old masters are friends and so they wanted their descendants to be connected by marriage.

Wan Lengya is a well-known asexual person. He is famous for his stern and icy demeanor. No one else was able to enter his eyes, even his childhood friend and wife is treated just a bit better than strangers. Everyone said he has an iced heart and only his love for music is undeniable.

Wu Xue and Wan Lengya couldnʼt be said to be close but they could communicate with each other through music. After all, both are undeniably talented in music, only because of a weak heart Wu Xue is unable to compete in the contest to be entitled as a music genius. On the other hand, his husband is a famous figure in the music world and was deemed as the King of Music. But everything changed when the Protagonist shou, Xing Ran, appeared. He is a prodigy, with diamond in rough capabilities.

Adding up his bright personality, Wan Lengya couldnʼt stop himself from liking the boy. For the first time in his life, Lengyaʼs heart skipped a beat and he ended up falling with the boy, but he couldnʼt betray his wife over his love. That is until his family upon hearing that Wu Xue lost his ability to play instrument after an accident, Lengya was finally convinced to break their marriage which ended up Wu Xue in his lone misery taking his life to end.]

After having the memories of the original host, Hei Anjing could help but sigh, ”Ha~ why do I always end up having to host the body of a cannon fodder?” asked Hei Anjing.

[This is because the host needed to change the destiny of that Cannon Fodder. So that after the world is reset, he will be the new Protagonist of the world.]

”Hm, no wonder but why is it that there is no villain in this world?” asked Hei Anjing as he thought about his beloved which he had left in that star.

[Answering to the Host, in this star there is no Villain because the Protagonist Shou is a Black Lotus.]

[A/n: A Black Lotus person is unlike a pure silly person like a White Lotus. They are those who look very pure and cute and pretend to be harmless and fragile without any ambition. Though in reality they are cruel and overly ambitious people who will do and use anything to get what they want. They can even kill people. In short they are closet lunatics.]

A mischievous smile appeared on his face, ”Heh~ really~… this will be really fun then…” replied Hei Anjing.

At this moment Hei Anjing will be referred to as Wu Xue. As Wu Xue expected, the nurse brought over the doctor to check on him as well few related people to him like his husband, Wan Lengya. Heʼs best friend, Yue Wuya, as well as the mother of Wan Lengya.

After the doctor finished looking over him, ”His heart had stabilized but regarding his fingers…” The doctor peaks towards the patient with a weak heart before continuing speaking.

Wu Xue just gave him a small smile, ”I know about it already. There is no need for the doctor to worry about me scaring myself that I could no longer play any instrument.”

He spoke nonchalantly as if it were not him who lost the only few things that he treasures and owned. Everyone was surprised by how Wu Xue acted.

”Iʼm sorry about that Prince Snow.” The doctor said with his head lowered.

[A/n: Xue means snow in Chinese. Prince Snow is how Wu Xue was called in Wu Clan.]

”Please donʼt worry yourself doctor. I am fine but I would like to stay in the hospital for a few days in this room until the strength on my legs return. If there is nothing more, please go ahead and return to your work.” Said Wu Xie with a gentle voice that soothes anyone who hears it.

After hesitating for a moment the doctor observed the sickly prince on the bed and seeing no other problems with regards to his body the doctor left the room after he was allowed too.

During the whole conversation Wu Xue had never once looked at his so-called husband. After all, that person is a stranger and the protagonist gong. He doesnʼt wish to dirty his eyes just to see this toy as he is not in the mood to play yet. Even ignoring that observing gaze that fell on him. Once the doctor had left, silence descended in the area and no one was willing to break the ice for them.

Until Wu Xue spoke after taking a deep breath, ”Aunt, Wuya, I would like to speak with Lengya alone, please.” Wu Xue calls Wan Lengyaʼs mother, aunt, since the Wan family doesnʼt really accept him as their in law.

The two mentioned people looked at each other then towards the silent Wan Lengya, before preparing to leave the room as Wu Xue requested.

”Xue, I will buy you something to eat. Is there something you wish for me to buy?” Asked Yue Wuya.

”Hm? Macarons please.” Replied Wu Xue.

”As his highness wish…” Replied Yue Wuya with a smile before taking a leave even dragging Aunt Wan away from Wan Lengya after whispering a few things to him.

As soon as the two left, there was once again silence in the room. Only Wu Xue who is seated on the hospital bed, looked at the scenery outside his window. Watching the not completely bloomed plum flowers outside his room.

Spring hasnʼt arrived yet but the flowers have already started budding. Wu Xue, who doesnʼt want to look at the protagonist gong, just enjoyed the scenery outside his opened window instead. Wan Lengya just stared at him waiting for him to speak while seating at the couch within the room.

With his slender back facing his husband, ”Lengya, do you have someone you love?” Wu Xue asked but didnʼt even look at Wan Lengya to see his expressions.

Wan Lengya suddenly frowned before thinking how he was supposed to answer only for Wu Xue to speak once again. ”The plum flowers had bloomed twice and will be thrice in these few days. So, you must give me an answer regarding that promise 3 years ago.”

Wu Xue is talking about three years ago just after they learned that they will be engaged, the original Wu Xue asked Wan Lengya a single question under the plum trees. ʼCan you try loving me? I will give you 3 years to decide.ʼ This is Wu Xueʼs last compromise with Wan Lengya who he had in his heart.

This person waited 3 years intently for this cold-hearted manʼs answer, only for him to receive a divorce agreement as he opened his eyes losing everything he cares for and treasures which leads for him to end his own life. Wan Lengya was born asexual thatʼs what he also thought so until he met Xing Ran who made his heart beats for the first time. Making him feel some sort of attraction towards the latter but that doesnʼt mean that Lengya didnʼt care for Wu Xue. After all only this person treated him like a normal person all his life.

So, even though it is small, Wu Xue occupies a part of this cold manʼs heart. Lowering his silver eyes with his silver hair flutters as he moves, his neutral emotionless face finally tainted with a frown.

Still not hearing an answer, Wu Xue tried to comfort him with his words, ”You shouldnʼt think too much of my situation. Lengya I can take care of myself.” Said Wu Xue.

Hearing those words of comfort, Wan Lengyaʼs heart didnʼt feel consoled. Instead he felt uneasiness filling his heart. Even he couldnʼt understand Wu Xueʼs usual assuring voice turned extremely gentle in his ears but sounds like a demon tempting him to make a wrong move. He couldnʼt decide which to follow.

His mind that focuses on his responsibilities as Wu Xueʼs legal partner or his heart that is messy and uncontrolled when he thought of that angelic smile of Xing Ran. In the end he chose to listen to his heart which skipped a beat once for Xing Ran.

”I…I cannot. I like Xing Ran. Xueʼer, Iʼm sorry.” Replied Wan Lengya.

Silence~

There is a short silence until Wu Xue spoke once more, ”I see…” he only answered as such but there is no change in the tone of his voice.

Still gentle as always and nice to hear but to Lengyaʼs ears that voice made him hear those tender sounds fills his mind and heart with anxiety. Unable to take back the words he had spoken, Lengya could only shut his mouth in silence.

”Lengya, you should take your leave. A week after, I want you to visit me here to sign the divorce paper I will prepare. Donʼt worry youʼll be free after a week until then you shouldnʼt visit me.”

After that conversation, Aunt Wan and Yue Wuya returned. Seeing that the situation is the same as before they felt relief.

Yue Wuya approached Wu Xue in the bed happily presenting the macarons he was asked to buy, ”Xue, I bought it for you.” Said Wuya and smiled when Wu Xue moved his gaze to look at him more like at the macaroon in front of him.

Seeing that his eyes were calm as before, not swollen or reddening, nor any hints of crying was found that Wuya was completely relieved. Not even noticing that within those calm eyes was indifference that shows no familiarity to anyone even towards the smiling man before him. Yue Wuya happily opened the box and put the macarons on a small plate before giving it to Wu Xue so he can eat it easily.

On the other hand, Lengya who finally saw his wifeʼs indifferent expression could feel a prick within his chest. Unable to explain or understand, he can only stay soundless while keeping the restlessness that is about to occupy his heart.

Seeing the silly one before him treating him kindly, Wu Xue could only give him his gratitude. ”Thank you, Wuya.” according to his memories this man is the originalʼs admirer.

Even When Lengya who finally saw his wifeʼs face which is the same as he remembers but for some unknown reason seeing that calmness towards that beautiful sickly figure on the bed not only made him not feel any familiarity and he felt anxious instead. In his heart there is something wrong, but he couldnʼt point out where. He could only frown to express his confusion.
