Chapter 554: Chapter 551: You Must Help Me Save Chen Nuo!

Chapter 551 [You Have to Help Me Save Chen Nuo!]

At five o’clock in the afternoon.

Sun Keke leaned against Chen Nuo, her head resting directly on Chen Nuo’s shoulder.

Under the sheets, the girl’s smooth body pressed closely against Chen Nuo’s without any barriers.

The girl’s long lashes fluttered as she stared at the ceiling, lost in her thoughts.

"It’s true."

Chen Nuo suddenly spoke these words.

Sun Keke was a bit puzzled: "Hmm?"

"I’m saying, all of this is true, it really happened." Chen Nuo sighed, reached out to embrace Sun Keke, and slowly said, "I know, it’s always been my fault, making you suffer a lot, making you wait for so long, disappointing you many times.

But now, all of this is real, it’s not a dream, it’s actually happening."

In the darkness, Sun Keke let out a soft sigh and pressed herself even closer to Chen Nuo.

"Chen Nuo..."

The girl softly called out, then whispered: "I... don’t know why, but I’m still a little scared. I’m always afraid all this will suddenly disappear."

"It won’t." Chen Nuo leaned over, kissed Sun Keke’s hair, and assured her in a low voice, "It won’t disappear."

"Then in the future..." The girl’s voice carried a hint of uncertainty even in the dark.

"In the future, we’ll always be together. Until we leave this world." Chen Nuo slowly said.

"..." Sun Keke bit Chen Nuo firmly: "Don’t say things like that again, you can’t say it anymore."

Sun Keke sighed before gently asking, "Then, how will we live in the future?"

"Live exactly as you want to live. Do what you want to do, live how you want to live." Chen Nuo gently said, "I hope you’re happy."

"Then, Lu..."

"She’s accepted it. In fact, before I went to Tokyo to find you, she already knew. She supported me coming to find you. So you don’t have to worry about these things. None of this will change."

Sun Keke felt relieved.

"So in the future, however you want to live, whatever you want to do, however you want to interact, it’s all okay. Or... if you want to come back with me, that’s also fine." Chen Nuo whispered, "Lu Xixi, before I went to find you, talked to me a lot. She really hopes you can come back, and that we can live together."

Sun Keke was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I... still want to live the life I have now."

"Hmm?"

"I want to live the life I have now. I... still want to go to Tokyo, and be... with my companions. We have our own group... I..."

Chen Nuo asked: "Are you worried about interacting with Lu Xixi?"

"No." Sun Keke shook her head, then suddenly sat up, crossing her legs in front of Chen Nuo: "Let’s talk, let’s really talk.

Besides, since you went to Tokyo to find me two days ago until now, we... haven’t actually seriously talked about how we should interact, have we?"

Chen Nuo also sat up, looking into Sun Keke’s eyes—the dark room didn’t hinder Chen Nuo’s vision: "Alright, you can talk about whatever you want."

"I’m not worried about my interaction with Lu Xixi... actually, I know she won’t oppose me. Because... a long time ago, about two years ago when you disappeared for about half a year, Lu Xixi came to find me, she came to see me alone once.

That time, she said a lot of strange things to me, saying that if one day she’s not around, she hopes I can stay by your side..."

Chen Nuo gently responded, "Hmm."

"So, I want to go back to Tokyo, not because I resist interacting with Lu Xixi.

But... I really want to let myself grow a bit more.

This half year, I’ve experienced so much, changed a lot...some parts of me have changed so much that I’m no longer the person I used to be.

Initially, I was very afraid of this change, but after getting used to it slowly, I think these changes are not wrong.

Chen Nuo, I want to help you, someday, I want to be able to help you."

The girl snuggled closer, embracing Chen Nuo gently, and softly said: "All those things I used to think about, those simple lives—they can’t happen again.

This is reality, it’s a fact. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

You’re not a simple ordinary person, so those simple lifestyles aren’t possible for you. Even if you want them, it’s beyond your control.

I can’t bind you, forcing you to live those simple lives with me.

You can’t do it, and I can’t do it either.

So... I’ve actually thought it all through, just let me grow up.

After Yun Yin left, she actually left me with a lot, her gifts allow me to grow up quickly.

I don’t want to waste her gifts, and I want to become your helper in the future.

Not a burden holding you back."

Chen Nuo fell silent.

Sun Keke lightly laughed: "I... being like this now, does this surprise you too much?"

"Not surprised." Chen Nuo sighed: "Anyway... I hope you’re truly happy, I thought you actually enjoyed the simple life before."

"But, it’s not simple anymore." Sun Keke laughed, pretending to be relaxed: "That can’t be helped. In the future... we’ll just face the storms together.

As for simple living... it can be a spice between adventures.

Like two days ago, we were still in Tokyo doing a commission task.

Last night, we flew to Huaxia to eat crayfish.

Living like this... in the future, living like this is pretty good too."

Chen Nuo still wanted to say something, but Sun Keke already leaned against his chest: "There’s one last thing, you have to promise me."

"Hmm?"

"I want to meet with Lu Xixi and have a chat. Just the two of us."

"Ah?"

"Hmm, I have to meet and chat with Lu Xixi." Sun Keke whispered: "Actually, I used to really like her, remember? When I first got to know her, the plan was to be friends. But later, because I found out you were in the middle, my relationship with her became weird.

Actually, I really want to, and I’m willing to have a good conversation with her.

It’s very important for how the three of us will interact in the future.

After all, we’ll meet, my requirement is that you don’t interfere, let us have an exclusive conversation."

Chen Nuo sensed the firmness in Sun Keke’s tone.

Her words were gentle, but the determination in her tone was very clear.

Probably... this is part of Yun Yin’s personality.

Chen Nuo nodded: "Okay."

·

The meeting place between Sun Keke and Lu Xixi was at Chen Nuo’s home.

The two had a phone call, and Lu Xixi’s mood in the conversation was very calm. When Sun Keke suggested meeting to chat, Lu Xixi just chuckled and said over the phone directly to Sun Keke: "Come home... after all, we’ll have to interact in this home in the future, there’s no need to go out to find a place."

Moreover, as if by coincidence, Lu Xixi also told Sun Keke: "Let your husband not return, you come alone."

After hanging up, Sun Keke felt remarkably calm too.

Chen Nuo thought about it and simply took Sun Keke directly from the hotel and dropped Sun Keke off at the entrance of the residential area of the house.

"... You guys won’t end up fighting, will you?" Chen Nuo was actually a bit nervous inside.

Even though the Star Sky Empress had already explained things clearly before.

But... this is Lu Xixi!

And part of Sun Keke’s personality still belonged to that Yun Yin, who would get into fights at the slightest provocation!

Sun Keke smiled at Chen Nuo: "You don’t have faith in Lu Xixi? Or you don’t have faith in me?"

She pulled Chen Nuo’s hand: "We’ll have a good talk, nothing you imagine will happen."

After saying that, Sun Keke walked straight into the community.

Chen Nuo stood at the entrance of the community, thinking for a moment.

Well, it looks like I can’t go home again today.

If it doesn’t work... I’ll find a place to grab dinner on my own.

·

On a small street near Confucius Temple, Boss Guo’s noodle shop was doing pretty well in the evening.

The shop was half full.

Old Guo was preparing noodles in the kitchen when he heard a familiar voice from outside.

"Boss Guo, one bowl of beef ramen, thin noodles, and add more beef!"

Old Guo: "... Damn! How did you get so fat?"

Boss Guo poked his head halfway out of the kitchen, glanced at Chen Nuo, and sighed: "Okay, okay, I’ll give you the whole cow. And the cigarettes are on the counter, help yourself."

Chen Nuo sat at his seat.

A TV was hanging on the wall, playing the news.

After watching for a while, Old Guo personally brought out a bowl of noodles and placed it in front of Chen Nuo.

Chen Nuo took a glance.

Indeed, there’s a lot of meat!

Boss Guo is generous, he even added an egg.

Peeling a few cloves of garlic, Chen Nuo blew off the garlic peel, picked up the chopsticks to stir the noodles, blew off the steam, and then happily started eating in big mouthfuls.

Old Guo now had some free time, so he sat across from Chen Nuo, lit a cigarette, took a couple of puffs, and seeing Chen Nuo eating so heartily, laughed: "How did you get so fat?"

"Practicing went wrong, it’ll get better in a few days." Chen Nuo seemed unconcerned.

"What kind of practice leads to this?" Old Guo was a little surprised.

"Great Majestic Heavenly Dragon." Chen Nuo casually fabricated an answer while vigorously eating the noodles.

Well, you’re the Controller, you’re impressive!

Old Guo rolled his eyes and simply stopped asking.

In less than ten minutes, Chen Nuo had finished off a big bowl of noodles, even drinking the soup dry.

"Need another bowl?" Old Guo was a bit vague: "Eating like this, no wonder you’re getting fat."

Chen Nuo shook his head: "I’ve been exerting myself today, I don’t usually eat like this."

"Really not having another bowl?"

"No more." Chen Nuo took a cigarette from Old Guo’s pack, lit it for himself, took a deep drag, and then asked: "Where’s the Fourth Miss?"

"She’s gone to buy plane tickets, will be back tonight.

The Guo Family has some matters to attend to, she plans to return home in a few days to take care of them. She said a promising young member of the family wants to come here and learn from me."

Chen Nuo laughed: "Learn ramen making?"

Old Guo was displeased: "I’m at the pinnacle of the Destroyers, you know."

"Your ramen-making skills are much better than your fighting skills." Chen Nuo wiped his mouth with a napkin: "Interested in taking your noodle shop public? I’ve recently met a wealthy fool with loads of money. I can have him invest in your noodle shop, ask for a billion or so, he won’t even blink to provide it.

With that money and your skills, we could ring the Nasdaq bell by next year."

Old Guo cursed with a smile: "Get lost, stop teasing me. I’m from the Guo Family too, you know, is the Guo Family short of money? We’ve still got several jade mines at home."

Chen Nuo nodded: "True. Ah! Looks like you can’t take advantage of the Octopus Monster’s generosity this time."

Boss Guo then reacted.

Oh, so the wealthy fool was the Octopus Monster?

Alright, alright, you’re the Controller, you’re impressive.

"Finish up and leave."

"What’s the matter? It’s not even closing time yet, is it?", Chen Nuo wasn’t happy: "It’s not even eight."

"Don’t want to chat with a blabbermouth." Old Guo shook his head.

Chen Nuo sighed, somewhat helplessly: "Let me sit for a while, Old Guo, I have nowhere to go at the moment."

"No place to go, go home then."

"Can’t go home." Chen Nuo shook his head.

Old Guo sneakily glanced at Chen Nuo: "Did the Star Sky Empress beat you up again?"

Chen Nuo: "... No! Why does everyone think I’m getting abused at home?"

·

When Sun Keke arrived, it was Lu Xixi who opened the door.

It seemed Lu Xixi had just showered, her hair still a bit damp. Very casually, in a homely tone, she looked at Sun Keke and gently smiled: "Keke~ come in, I haven’t dried my hair yet, you go sit down first. I’ve boiled some water in the kitchen, keep an eye on it for me."

This attitude, so homely it couldn’t be more homely, actually left Sun Keke, who was already quite nervous inside, utterly dumbfounded.

But Lu Xixi didn’t seem to care at all and slipped straight into the bathroom. Soon, the sound of a hairdryer could be heard.

Sun Keke sat down in the living room, instinctively looking around the house.

Actually, it was all too familiar.

Before Lu Xixi showed up, Sun Keke often came to Chen Nuo’s house.

Occasionally even helped clean up a bit.

But since...

She hadn’t been here since then.

Sitting for less than a minute, suddenly remembering something, Sun Keke stood up, went to the kitchen, and looked at the kettle on the stove.

Hmm, it had boiled.

Sun Keke casually turned off the heat, then picked up the empty pressure water bottle beside it.

Hmm, empty.

Took the kettle and poured the boiling water into the bottle.

The kettle in Chen Nuo’s house wasn’t the kind with a whistle.

Perhaps because there’s a child now, afraid the whistling kettle might wake the child when the water boiled.

Huh? Where’s the baby?

Sun Keke sneaked a few steps forward and took a peek into the bedroom.

A small crib was placed there.

Sun Keke walked closer and saw a tiny person lying inside, covered with a blanket. The small body was curled into a ball, sleeping soundly.

The little face was flushed, puffed up like a bun.

That tender skin made one want to gently pinch it.

Sun Keke was entranced, with thoughts swirling in her mind.

Suddenly, Lu Xixi’s voice came from behind: "Isn’t my daughter adorable?"

"Huh?"

Sun Keke snapped back to reality.

The sound of the hairdryer had stopped at some point, and Lu Xixi was standing at the door, smiling at her.

"The baby is still asleep, probably won’t wake up for another hour. If you like, I’ll let you hold her when she wakes up~"

With a cheerful demeanor, Lu Xixi gestured to Sun Keke, who understood, and the two returned to the living room to sit down.

"Sister Xixi..." Sun Keke thought about her words before speaking.

Lu Xixi suddenly burst into laughter: "What did you call me?"

"S-sister Xixi?" School belle Sun was at a loss.

Lu Xixi nodded, tilting her head thoughtfully: "Well, I remember when we first met, you called me Sister Lu."

Then, Lu Xixi suddenly winked: "Do you still remember the first time we met? In the restroom of that furniture store."

Sun Keke smiled wryly: "I remember."

"At that time, you complimented me on my looks, and we even shared lipstick. Oh right, I remember you said the sweatshirt I was wearing, your boyfriend had the same one.

Actually, that sweatshirt belonged to Chen Nuo."

Sun Keke’s face turned crimson.

Lu Xixi sighed: "So... you see, it’s all because of that dog thing. He’s the worst."

Sun Keke didn’t know how to respond.

Lu Xixi seemed more casual, casually saying: "You said we should talk, and I think we indeed need to talk... But what about?"

"I..."

Sun Keke pressed her lips together: "I... want to thank you, thank you for..."

"Thank me for enduring, thank me for completing for you? Or thank me for... being gracious?" Lu Xixi widened her eyes at Sun Keke.

Sun Keke swallowed hard: "Seems... that’s what I mean."

Lu Xixi blinked her eyes, then suddenly turned serious: "Keke, do you remember those months when Chen Nuo first disappeared... I once sought you out alone and met with you.

That time, I told you I didn’t mind you being around Chen Nuo, do you remember?"

"I remember."

Lu Xixi nodded: "My stance remains the same now, Keke. What I want to tell you is, always, always from that first meeting, until now.

Always, I’ve really not minded you being around Chen Nuo. I’m even... willing to accept you beside Chen Nuo."

"Why?" Sun Keke frowned, somewhat puzzled.

"Because..." Lu Xixi’s eyes looked deep: "I might... die in a few years."

"What!" Sun Keke’s eyes widened, exclaiming.

Lu Xixi waved her hand, then slowly said: "My husband... well, shouldn’t I say, our husband’s family... may have some things not yet told to you. Since we’re talking, why not let me tell you then, can I tell you a story?"

"A story?"

"Yes, a story about a devoted love brain, who gave up everything after his woman died, reincarnated seventeen times, trying to save the life of the woman he loves..."

"Love brain? Seventeen lives?" Sun Keke’s eyes widened.

"Sorry, the term love brain, is a joke my husband made. It might... be a term he heard in his past life."

For the next half hour...

·

Sun Keke’s face showed an expression of numbness.

Well, it was actually numbness.

Unable to articulate the expression, it was numbness from shock, and also awe, pain, regret, along with a pinch of sadness...

The "story" Lu Xixi told Sun Keke was evidently something Chen Nuo had been hiding from her.

Understanding this, Sun Keke finally realized why Chen Nuo had been attempting to distance himself from her after meeting Lu Xixi.

Seventeen lifetimes of reincarnation!

To save Lu Xixi!

This is...

So, Chen Nuo had such deep feelings for Lu Xixi before?

Seventeen reincarnations?

Seventeen rescues?

Seventeen failures?

"He... seems to really love you..."

Sun Keke’s voice was faint.

Her heart became somewhat shaken, unconfident.

Facing such deep emotions, her relationship with Chen Nuo.

Compared to seventeen lifetimes of reincarnation, it seemed...

"I’m telling you these things because I want you to understand two things."

"You, you go ahead." Sun Keke smiled wryly.

"First, I want you to understand that Chen Nuo didn’t purposely hurt you, didn’t intentionally abandon you. When he met you, he had sealed away his memories and didn’t remember the feelings between us. So he met you, developed feelings, and your relationship was real.

He wasn’t intentionally hurting you, wasn’t purposely playing with your feelings."

"I, I understand." Sun Keke said with a cry-laughter expression: "So... according to what you just said, Chen Nuo... he actually isn’t Chen Nuo?"

The previous life’s Chen Xiaoguo was a very powerful Special Ability User named Yama.

While the No. 8 Middle School student Chen Nuo truly wrote the love letter to her, only, after finishing the letter, the ordinary No. 8 Middle School student Chen Nuo had passed away.

And then, just by chance, Chen Yanluo reincarnated, possessing the body of No. 8 Middle School student Chen Nuo.

So...

"I also want to ask you a question." Lu Xixi looked seriously at Sun Keke.

"Please, go ahead."

"Your affection for Chen Nuo... who is it actually directed towards?" Lu Xixi squinted at Sun Keke.

"..." Sun Keke was stunned.

"The original ordinary student Chen Nuo once wrote you a love letter.

Then you fell in love with the reincarnated Chen Yanluo.

So I must first clarify one thing, which person do you actually like.

This must be clarified first, not mixed up."

Sun Keke immediately shook her head: "No confusion. I like the current Chen Nuo.

According to what you said... the original Chen Nuo, although he wrote me a love letter, his personality was very introverted and timid, and he had no presence in school.

I was only a little curious about him—this curiosity was just because, in school, since my father was the dean at the time, no boys dared to provoke me. Yet he dared to write me a love letter, this move made me a little strange.

But beyond that, I have no special feelings for him.

I like the later Chen Nuo, which is the current Chen Nuo.

He... seems a bit unserious, but he actually seems very reliable in everything he does. In short... sometimes he feels bad, but every time I’m with him... Even though sometimes he makes me so angry that my teeth itch, I can’t bring myself to hate him."

Lu Xixi laughed: "That’s good, with what you said, I’m relieved."

Lu Xixi suddenly reached out and held Sun Keke’s hand.

Sun Keke was a little surprised but didn’t resist, letting Lu Xixi hold her hand, just with a somewhat tense expression on her face.

"Do you know why I am willing to accept you, Sun Keke?"

"... I don’t know." Sun Keke shook her head: "So I’m very surprised, also very unexpected, but more than anything, thankful."

"Because, Chen Nuo reincarnated seventeen times to save me...

And I also want to save him!"

"Ah?" Sun Keke immediately became serious: "Save him? Is he very dangerous?"

Lu Xixi shook her head: "Sun Keke, listen carefully—I might die!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Keke immediately sat up straight and looked seriously at Lu Xixi.

"The seventeen reincarnations, Chen Nuo did it to save my life. But he failed every time.

Our opponent is very strong. Or rather, ’strong’ isn’t quite the word to describe it.

It’s an almost unsolvable problem. It’s very complicated, we’ll slowly explain it to you later.

But what’s predictable is that my crisis will definitely erupt in the future. And based on the failures of the previous seventeen times.

There’s a high probability that I will die."

"I understand..." Sun Keke suddenly raised her head, her tone very firm: "I will definitely do my utmost to help Chen Nuo save you!"

"No, that’s not what I expect from you." Lu Xixi shook her head, smiled: "My expectation is for you to help me, save Chen Nuo."

Seeing Sun Keke’s confused gaze, Lu Xixi sighed softly.

"Husband... He has reincarnated seventeen times, he loves me very much, I understand this very well.

Therefore, he fails once, reincarnates once, reincarnates once, and fails again.

Seventeen times of heartbreaking separation, seventeen times of life and death.

In this life, I’ve told him that if I die this time, please don’t save me anymore.

I asked him to give up, to stop this endless pain, this endless heartbreak.

But I can see that he was just accommodating me with words, but in action... I worry, really, that if that day comes, he might still refuse to let go.

So...

So I’ve seriously thought about this question.

He is willing to reincarnate seventeen times for me because he loves me enough, he considers me his most important bond in this world.

But if...

He had another bond on him?

In other words, if someone could enter his heart and at the moment he wants to continue to self-destruct, could hold him back.

Letting him have concerns, have bonds, have worries in his heart...

Maybe this time, he wouldn’t continue diving into reincarnation.

Sun Keke, you don’t have to thank me.

I’m not as magnanimous as you might think!"

Lu Xixi said this, her eyes narrowed, and she laughed in a low voice: "In the world, no matter how magnanimous a woman is, who is willing to share the man she sincerely loves with someone else?

No one!

But I’m willing, because...

I know Chen Nuo reincarnated seventeen lifetimes to save me!

Not seventeen days.

Not seventeen months.

Not seventeen years.

But seventeen lifetimes, seventeen worlds!

Seventeen times of repeated lives, he’s already done so much for me, he owes me nothing, he’s endured too much pain for me.

He’s proved he’s given too much for me.

And I, I love my husband very much.

I don’t want him to continue suffering like this.

That’s why I’m willing to accept you.

Accurately speaking, whether it’s you, Sun Keke, doesn’t really matter to me.

Any woman, as long as she true-heartedly loves him, I’m willing to accept.

I just wish to find him a concern, a bond.

So that when he does something foolish again, there can be a concern to tether him.

This person, whether it’s you Sun Keke, or Li Yingwan, Nivelle, Xicheng Xun... I truly don’t care.

Am I making sense to you?

And you, you also make me feel assured because I’m certain you also sincerely love Chen Nuo, I believe, even if one day I die, you will treat him well.

So, I’m willing to accept you.

So... Please, help me, save Chen Nuo!

Someday in the future, if I die and he wants to do something foolish again, you must stop him!

Because only you can stop him, because you love him, and he has genuine feelings for you."

Sun Keke’s expression changed slightly.
