Seven years after my death, the male protagonist of the substitute novel was criticized

Chapter 61 Fainting

Lin Lu thought that letting her travel through time to the present was a mistake, like forcing something to grow too fast.

Obviously her morality and her stress resistance have not yet adapted to the development speed of the future world. When communicating with a group of people who seem to be sick, she always has to keep repeating to herself "I can't follow their sick brain circuits" before she can calm down and think normally.

Such as now.

"I still have some serious business to deal with. I'm not in the mood to develop feelings with anyone. Can you take your brains out of the romantic TV series and talk to me on an equal footing?"

She tried to analyze the current situation with a normal human nervous system, and made the two businessmen opposite who were eyeing the same piece of land understand that it was illegal to seize the right to use domestic land.

"You don't allow me to have normal contact with others. Do you think this is right? I am a normal person and have the right to make normal friends. It is because you don't allow me to make normal friends that I secretly met with Duan Chengyu when you were away. This is your fault. Do you admit it?"

Pei Yizhou certainly did not admit it.

However, Lin Lu did not think that they would cooperate. He just used this ancient method of "reciting spells while casting to strengthen faith" as a means to clear his mind.

So without waiting for an answer, she continued, "It's okay if you don't admit it, but you have no reason to be angry and violent enough to hit someone. What's wrong with me meeting him? I am not your property. Meeting one man, two men, or a group of men is my own business. You are not qualified to interfere with me in your current status. If you want to control me, you'd better put on the identity of a brother first. Taking medicine is not a way to control me."

After saying that, he turned around and looked at Duan Chengyu: "And you, your pursuit methods are like game walkthroughs. Although it is easy to impress people, the steps are clear. You just coax young girls under the pretext of helping them. The big-tailed wolf looks no different from him."

Pei Yizhou did not allow anyone to approach her, and in fact he was the only one who approached her; Duan Chengyu said that Pei Yizhou felt a sense of superiority in front of him, and so did he.

It seemed as if having a unique secret with her was a reason for two men to compete for the job, but she was not a human being.

Inexplicable possessiveness and inexplicable bad luck in love.

Lin Lu didn't care how they reacted. After sorting out all this, he took a deep breath and finally warned them: "I am not a toy that anyone who wins can get first."

After these words were spoken, Pei Yizhou and Duan Chengyu remained silent and instead stared at her with similar deep eyes.

One can imagine two crocodiles emerging from the water, staring at the fresh fish on the shore whose quality has been improved to a higher level.

She couldn't interpret that look, so she looked away and pretended not to see it, and emphasized to Pei Yizhou again:
"Duan Chengyu and I met to discuss the dream. You have investigated it before. It is very much like the memory of a parallel world, but he and I are both sure that the person in the dream is ourselves. The investigation has not yielded more useful results, so I was thinking whether we should share all the secrets. You have lived here for many years, which should reduce the transmission errors of the intermediate media, and it should be more convenient to investigate."

"Lin Lu--" Duan Chengyu was the first to interrupt with a frown. Compared with Pei Yizhou, he seemed more reluctant to share the secret between them.

Obviously, at the beginning, he didn't even agree with the term "the same kind", and he had no interest in sharing any common secrets with a girl who had just come of age.

Pei Yizhou became the one who indulged him. He glanced at her coldly, and when his eyes moved back to Lin Lu, he said lightly, "Speak."

"After I came back from the time travel, I kept dreaming about the scenes of being with Duan Chengyu. The most frequent dream was me running on the Antarctic ice and calling his name, and then some daily life. His dreams were different from mine. Most of them were about the development of a relationship between us that was more than friends but less than lovers. I think..."

"and many more."

"and many more."

Pei Yizhou and Duan Chengyu suddenly spoke at the same time.

"You just said, where is the most frequent dream?" Pei Yizhou's voice suddenly became very soft, and he paid attention to Lin Lu's reaction while asking. Her reaction was like a gambler doing an experiment that was very likely to fail, and her breathing was fast and slow with the frequency of her blinking.

Lin Lu didn’t think he had said anything wrong: “Antarctica. Any questions?”

He fell into a sense of absurdity, with tinnitus coming from far away and getting closer, and he didn't react for a long time.

Lin Lu felt strange, but Duan Chengyu also asked: "What is time travel?"

This is the point she wants to explain.

"Travelling through time means... I woke up in this world. The original me should have been living in 2015, but in the eyes of others, the me in 2015 mysteriously disappeared. I didn't tell you before, after all, it's really hard to believe."

After she finished speaking, she waited cautiously for Duan Chengyu's reaction after hearing this.

Empty your mind, well, it’s normal to empty your mind, and the next step might be to smile and ask her if she’s kidding.

But Duan Chengyu was silent for a moment, and then he said thoughtfully: "So you traveled through time and then began to dream about me. Then everything in the dream is more likely to have really happened during the nine years you were absent from this world. It seems that you should accept the bouquet of flowers."

"..." Lin Lu was silent, "I'm talking about business."

"I'm also talking about business. What bothered you before was why such a bizarre thing happened to you, and why it happened to us. I looked for many scientific cases and tried to explain them using principles that have been proven by the scientific community, but since time travel has already happened, this matter doesn't need scientific evidence - it was all destined by God, and it should have been us."

The mood that had just sunk to the bottom due to being rejected and having secrets shared with others suddenly floated up again.

Duan Chengyu raised his eyelids and said with a smile: "Although the me in the other world and the me now have no overlap in time, maybe you are the jumping mouse in science fiction movies, and you have been related to me in every world."

He didn't care what the opportunity for the connection was, or which world's Duan Chengyu was the one who had the deepest connection with her.

The causes were complex and varied, but as long as the result was that she and the current Duan Chengyu met and had the opportunity to establish a connection, it was a good result.

Lin Lu was not as carefree as him. She was determined to find out every detail and every reason behind the matter.

Only after the yarn is straightened out can she estimate how big a sweater she can knit.

"Metaphysics should also have a metaphysical explanation. Why did such a bizarre thing happen to me on that day, in that place? I remember that I was taking a walk in Donghu Park, but when I woke up, I was wearing mountaineering clothes that I had never seen before."

"If I have been with you in a parallel world for the past nine years, then how did I fall into that parallel world? Did I fall right in front of you? The orange mountaineering suit is so thick that it makes me hot. Could it be that I was wearing it when I appeared on the Antarctic ice in my dream? Then there is a problem with the time."

She turned around to get Pei Yizhou's evidence, but when she turned her eyes to him, she found that Pei Yizhou's face was pale and his body was shaky.

Then he collapsed right before her eyes.

"……elder brother!"
