"Okay, meow."

"Perfect, I’ve also prepared a song to sing for him, you know～"

Yan Huan blinked and patted her calf with his paw, asking,

"How about you rehearse it for me now, meow? Sing it for me first?"

"Well, since you want to hear it so much..."

Bai Yi looked at the cute white cat beneath her, touched her chin, and smiled.

The next moment, she squatted down and lifted Yan Ye high.

Yan Huan hung his limbs loosely, staring straight ahead, his golden eyes full of her reflection.

"Ahem..."

He watched her cough lightly, and then slowly began to spin in place...

Just like the dance steps that were supposed to be at the high table dance.

At the same time, she slightly turned her head and began to sing softly,

"[In the past, I was always afraid that the wind would blow away my feelings]"

"[Until you gazed at me through the crowd]"

"[Every choice places me at the top]"

"[This determination shines brighter than the starlight]"

The spinning dance steps slowly continued, her expression unchanging.

All around, the radiant city and the starry sky connected dynamically.

Yan Huan just watched her, the golden eyes flickering with thoughts others couldn’t understand.

He just suddenly and pessimistically considered a possibility:

If...

He’s saying if, if it comes to the end and he still can’t change her disappearing outcome, what should he do?

Because everything he’s encountered along the way indicates this.

At the same time, he also thought of another potential solution, though it comes with a price.

All methods that require weighing pros and cons must be balanced on the scales of the heart.

But at this moment, looking at Bai Yi, he suddenly didn’t want to do it.

"How is it, does it sound good? Ugh, although I do think there’s a little flaw... Maybe I’ll ponder it more when I get back?"

Soon after, Bai Yi stopped to catch her breath.

Yan Huan continued to look at her intently, and after a while, he shook his head and said,

"Sounds good... Yan Huan will definitely like it, meow."

"Really?"

"Really."

As Yan Huan softly spoke, the golden timeline in the depths of his eyes suddenly became restless.

...

...

"Tick... Tock..."

At this moment, in the future, on July 1st, Yan Huan’s 19th birthday, in the afternoon, 4:44 PM.

"Xiao Huan?"

Ye Shiyu widened her eyes, watching as Yan Huan disappeared right in front of her.

She quickly stood up, looking around in shock at the now empty surroundings,

"Xiao... Xiao Huan?!"

She was so startled that she didn’t even have time to cover up her sneaking food, wanting to hurry downstairs and tell the others about this.

"Tick... Tock..."

At this moment, the clock on the wall slowly reached 4:45 PM.

"Sakuragi Hitomi!"

Going downstairs, Ye Shiyu instinctively called out "Sakuragi Hitomi" first thing.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, she froze.

Because at this moment, the originally lively birthday party downstairs became strange.

Down there, there was no cake, no lively atmosphere...

All there was were Yan Huan’s mother Wang Yulu, crying into her hands.

And a black-and-white portrait of Yan Huan placed in front of the birthday cake.

"..."

Several guests looked at the black-and-white portrait in shock, staring dumbfoundedly.

Clearly, they realized their memories had changed.

"How... how could this happen?"

Ye Shiyu stared blankly at Yan Huan’s portrait, her heart incomparably agitated, yet she also felt something was missing.

Her phone, no reaction at all?

Ye Shiyu raised her phone, looking down at it.

Only to find that the hypnosis app had disappeared without her knowing.

Looking back up, she saw Sakuragi Hitomi and An Le similarly stunned, staring at their hands.

They also realized that their modifiers were gone.

Replaced by a strange memory.

A few days ago, Xiao Huan suddenly invited them to give up on the modifiers together, and they agreed.

Who knew, as soon as they gave up the modifiers, Xiao Huan disappeared.

Then, the next day...

They received the news of Xiao Huan’s death.

"!!"

Realizing something terrifying had happened, Ye Shiyu’s face turned pale. She hurriedly looked at the others and asked,

"Bai... Bai Yi? Where is she?!"

She easily spoke the name of someone who was supposed to have disappeared.
