"That……song of yours, who did you sing it for?" Chen Yekai suddenly asked.

Yu Hao, "……" JdS4fY

Yu Hao remained silent and didn't answer. He brought Chen Yekai to his dormitory building and up the stairs. Chen Yekai smiled as he said, "Who is the friend?"

"General." Yu Hao answered. MPWetb

"Who……is General?" Chen Yekai asked.

"Someone in my heart." Yu Hao smiled, "It's not you, Chen Laoshi. But……you can treat it as a song I sang for you ba, I sang the song for all of my friends." SwvaEk

He sang that song for Zhou Sheng, Fu Liqun, Chen Yekai, Huang Ting, and even that journalist that he hadn't met before whose name he didn't even know. He sang it for everyone who had ever helped him……but the only one under the sunlight, was still General.

Chen Yekai's body became heavier. Yu Hao couldn't be bothered to think anymore. He took him by the arm and helped him walk upstairs. He rummaged around in Chen Yekai's trouser pockets — there was no key inside. Chen Yekai was propped against the door on one shoulder. Yu Hao remembered that this door had a fingerprint lock, so he pulled Chen Yekai's hand up to press down on it. The door opened. Wfj7rF

It was warm in Chen Yekai's house. Yu Hao placed him on the sofa. Chen Yekai laid down on his side and muttered to himself, "I hear you, I hear you——！

Yu Hao said, "Drink some water ba." Then he turned around and walked to the kitchen to get some water, while Chen Yekai continued lying on the sofa as he gasped for breath. JI46xh

He turned on the water purifier. For some reason, starting from the moment he met the General, memories from Yu Hao's past were gradually becoming more lucid. Previously forgotten memories — like obscure negatives that were soaking in the solution used to develop photograph films — slowly came into focus as they floated up to the surface of the water.

The day Chen Yekai arrived at Ying city was exactly when that incident had happened. But they didn't know each other before that. Can someone dream of a person that he has never met? TlYG5I

If we a.s.sume that he can, then under the premise that General has the ability to enter anyone's dreamscape without having met them, he should be able to come and go freely in these dreams. So why did he say to Shi Ni, "You're the one who summoned me here"?

If we a.s.sume that he can't, then both he and Shi Ni should have met General before, and both of them must have hoped for someone who could save them. General would have then used this impression in their minds to occupy a place for himself in their dreams. z7eSfo

Chen Yekai has seen Shi Ni before. If he was General, then why would he turn into Sun Wukong in Shi Ni's dreamscape? Also, before that incident occurred, he had never seen Chen Yekai before and never knew of his existence. So it couldn't be Chen Yekai, could it be Zhou Sheng?! When he thought of this, Yu Hao's heart suddenly began to beat wildly.

The hearing is tomorrow, so he will see Shi Ni then. He has to confirm one thing with Shi Ni first. He just needs a little time with Shi Ni so she can answer that one question. Eqt1dC

In the living room, Chen Yekai vomited.

Yu Hao quickly took a cup and went over. Chen Yekai had vomited all over the floor. Yu Hao supported him up and helped him drink the water, making sure he didn't choke. Chen Yekai sighed, and Yu Hao realised that there were traces of tears on his face. He had actually cried! ifdzUo

"Laoshi?" Yu Hao was instantly at a loss. Chen Yekai's drunkenness had already gone far beyond his ability to manage it. Chen Yekai laid back down and began to hum softly, and the song he hummed was actually the one that Yu Hao sang tonight! Yu Hao felt so embarra.s.sed; why did he have to choose the kind of song that only teenage girls would like?!
