Chapter 120

Xiao Tangqiu’s eyes were wide, “…Meng Xinghe? You say you are Meng Xinghe? Stop kidding… Aren’t you Shen Yuan?” Shen Yuan denied that he was Meng Xinghe repeatedly before, but now this time, why would he suddenly admit it?

He suddenly became excited, “Did you regain your memory? Do you remember what happened before you came to the City of the Abyss? You regained your memory, right!” That’s right! Now that Shen Yuan had remembered that he was seriously injured by the Abyss Demon and had his memory erased because he saw how to defeat Abyss Demon in the previous main mission, then he must have also remembered the memories he had lost before!

Xiao Tangqiu was very excited, but Shen Yuan’s reaction while facing him poured cold water on him, “Regain memory? What are you talking about? I have never lost my memory, why do I want to regain any memory?”

Shen Yuan frowned, his eyes filled with confusion. It didn’t seem to be fake at all.

Xiao Tangqiu’s heart sank, he grabbed Shen Yuan by the collar and eagerly asked, “You said you are Meng Xinghe? How old are you?”

Shen Yuan… No, he called himself Meng Xinghe. This person who looked exactly the same as Shen Yuan said, “Of course twenty-five years old. Xiao Tangqiu, are you still asleep? We’re the same age, you are twenty-five years old, of course I am also twenty-five years old.”

Xiao Tangqiu blurted out, “Impossible! Meng Xinghe is obviously only eighteen years old… He was eighteen years old when…” The Meng Xinghe in his memory had stayed forever in the year when he was eighteen years old. How could he possibly grow up with him until twenty-five years old?

“Do you have a fever?” Meng Xinghe frowned, and reached out to touch Xiao Tangqiu’s forehead, “Did you burn your brain? What nonsense are you talking about! How can I be only eighteen years old? Are you only eighteen years old? Or do you mean that you crossed time in your sleep?”

“Of course I am twenty-five years old, but… but you are not!” Xiao Tangqiu stared at Meng Xinghe blankly. For a moment he didn’t know what to say, so he could only confirm repeatedly, “You really are Meng Xinghe? Are you really twenty-five years old?”

After Meng Xinghe touched Xiao Tangqiu’s forehead, he touched his own forehead with a look of confusion, “I don’t have a fever, so why are you talking nonsense, or do you have dementia?”

Xiao Tangqiu grabbed Meng Xinghe’s hand and continued to ask, “What about the City of the Abyss? Do you remember the City of the Abyss?”

“What is the City of the Abyss?” Meng Xinghe frowned slightly. “Is it a theme park? Or a video game city? Why is this name so chuuni?”

Xiao Tangqiu was thunderstruck. He subconsciously took a step back and asked in disbelief, “You forgot the City of the Abyss… Then you forgot everything else? Have you forgotten everything we have experienced? ”

“Other things? What else?” Meng Xinghe continued to look puzzled. “Everything we experienced together? Of course I remember. Since graduating from university, we have been working as game streamers for the past few years. Today, we are going to have a real-life meetup with other streamers…”

Having said that, he suddenly looked down at the watch on his wrist, “Shoot! We’re going to be late soon! Let’s go!”

Xiao Tangqiu looked dumbfounded, “Wait a minute… After graduating from university? We graduated from university together?”

“Of course, if we didn’t graduate from university together, did you repeat a grade or did I repeat it? What silly things are you talking about!”

Xiao Tangqiu looked at Meng Xinghe in disbelief and opened his mouth for a long time before asking, “…We were admitted to the same university together?”

Meng Xinghe nodded, “What about it?”

Xiao Tangqiu continued to ask, “The same major?”

Meng Xinghe glanced at Xiao Tangqiu and nodded.

Xiao Tangqiu, “Was it even the same class?”

Meng Xinghe nodded.

Xiao Tangqiu, “&#k2026;and the same dormitory?”

Meng Xinghe raised his eyebrows, “You brat, why are you pretending that you only know these things today?”

Xiao Tangqiu gave a bitter smile, of course he only knew these things today! The Meng Xinghe in his memory had passed away in a car accident seven years ago. How could it be possible to go to university with him? Let alone go to university together, even he himself did not go to university!

Since Meng Xinghe’s death, he was devastated and decadent for several years, never going to university at all! Meng Xinghe said he went? It must be a university in a dream!

But…

If Meng Xinghe had not died in a car accident, they would indeed be admitted to the same university, apply for the same major, go to the same class, and live in the same dormitory. He and Meng Xinghe had been like conjoined babies since childhood after all. No matter what they did, everything had to be done together. Whether it’s the primary school entrance examination, the junior high school entrance examination, or even the high school entrance examination, they always went to the same school, and he believed that if they went to university, it would be the same.

Thinking of this, Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t help but ask, “We really got admitted to the same university? Which university?”

Meng Xinghe nodded, “Uni A.”

“Uni A? I remember you used to… Didn’t you have good grades before? Wasn’t your goal Uni B?” Xiao Tangqiu remembered that Meng Xinghe’s academic performance was very good that year, probably because he inherited his mother’s high IQ. Even if he didn’t spend a lot of time studying, he had always maintained excellent results.

Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t help but continue to say, “In contrast, my grades were just so-so. We obviously didn’t study hard and often escaped studying to play games at internet cafes at night. Why were your grades so good while mine wasn’t? How can there be such a big gap between people?”

Meng Xinghe raised his eyebrows and smiled, “It’s good that you know this. It seems that you are still a little aware in your heart.”

Xiao Tangqiu tilted his head and asked, “Why didn’t you go to Uni B, but took the entrance exam to Uni A with me?”

Meng Xinghe said indifferently, “You brat… you got a bargain and still want more? You were obviously the one who knelt down and begged me to take Uni A with you, so I had to give up Uni B and join you in Uni A.”

Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t help rolling his eyes, “Bullshit!”

Meng Xinghe smiled and rubbed Xiao Tangqiu’s head, “Alright, it was me who didn’t want to be separated from you, so I filled according to your wishes when filling in the application. Are you satisfied?”

Xiao Tangqiu paused for a long time. This was like something that Meng Xinghe really would do. Obviously, he could test into a better school, but he gave up in order to go to university with him… If Meng Xinghe didn’t have a car accident, they would take the university entrance exam together and may really be admitted to the same university.

He was silent for a few seconds before pretending to ask casually, “I remember seven years ago, during your birthday, didn’t we run away from home…”

Meng Xinghe smiled, “Oh, which time are you talking about?”

Xiao Tangqiu’s heart beat violently, “I remember right after we bought a cake, suddenly a car ran into us… and you pushed me away…”

Meng Xinghe nodded, “Yes, that did happen.”

Xiao Tangqiu’s heart beats wildly, “Then what?”

“Then?” Meng Xinghe raised an eyebrow. “Then I was injured and was taken to the hospital by ambulance. Our plan to run away from home failed.”

Xiao Tangqiu was stunned. He stared at Meng Xinghe blankly, “Our plan to run away from home failed? That’s it?” Didn’t Meng Xinghe die in the car accident? He didn’t shut himself down because of this? Everything after that… didn’t happen?

“Or else? I was injured in a car accident, did you still expect us to still run away from home?” Meng Xinghe poked Xiao Tangqiu’s cheek with his finger. “You were crying and begging me not to die, saying that you’re willing to do anything if I survived. But not long after I was discharged from the hospital, you acted like a big lord again. Are you a goldfish? Seven seconds of memory!”

“Actually, goldfish have more than seven seconds of memory… but this is not the point,” Xiao Tangqiu asked Meng Xinghe incredulously, “You didn’t die in the first place? You didn’t die in that car accident?”

Meng Xinghe frowned, “What crazy talk is this? If I died, who’s standing in front of you now?”

Xiao Tangqiu was silent for a long time before speaking with difficulty, “I just had a very long nightmare…”

Xiao Tangqiu didn’t wait for Meng Xinghe to interrupt and just spoke starting from the point of divergence during the car accident. He desperately calmed himself down and carefully observed Meng Xinghe’s expression, trying to find anything wrong in Meng Xinghe’s reactions.

But he didn’t see anything. Meng Xinghe’s expression was very normal, and he even raised his eyebrows with interest, “So you just had a nightmare and dreamed that I had died in the car accident, and that’s why you were so surprised when you woke up?”

“To be precise, I’m not sure if that’s a nightmare, or if now is,” Xiao Tangqiu stared at Meng Xinghe’s eyes tensely. “Are you really a real person, not a figment in my dream?”

Meng Xinghe raised his eyebrows, and then he suddenly laughed, “Do you think it’s your nightmare right now? I’m not dead, you’re not autistic, we went to university together, and we both have a career we’re passionate about together. Are you sure this is a nightmare? How can there be such a good nightmare?”

He suddenly took a step forward and strongly pinched Xiao Tangqiu’s face.

Xiao Tangqiu covered his face and took a step back, “What are you doing?”

“Does it hurt?” Meng Xinghe smiled softly, “Would it hurt in a dream?”

Xiao Tangqiu pursed his lips, “…Perhaps this is an extremely realistic dream. It’s not impossible in the instance world.”

“Sure, as long as you’re happy,” Meng Xinghe smiled and did not continue to refute, “but I have to remind you that we’ll be late to the meetup soon… No matter what, let’s head out first.”

Meetup? Speaking of, Meng Xinghe just mentioned this meetup seemed to be meeting with other game streamers they knew?

Xiao Tangqiu suddenly remembered something and quickly asked Meng Xinghe, “Other streamers we know? Is there a Tang Mianmian?”

Meng Xinghe asked, “Who is Tang Mianmian?”

Xiao Tangqiu opened his mouth, and his mind flashed, he suddenly changed his words, “No, not Tang Mianmian, it’s CottonCandy! Among other streamers we know… is there one called CottonCandy?”

Meng Xinghe raised his eyebrows, “CottonCandy? Your best friend?”

Xiao Tangqiu’s heart thudded, there really was a Tang Mianmian!

He couldn’t wait to ask, “Is he coming?”

Meng Xinghe nodded, “Of course.”

Xiao Tangqiu jumped up instantly, “Let’s go!”

Meng Xinghe, “Go where?”

Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t hide his excitement, “Of course it’s to go to the meetup!”
