Every time the prince opens his eyes, he sees

With the pursuit of the past and uncertainty about the future, He Yaoyao and her mother embarked on a journey back home.

The plane slowly landed on a strange yet familiar land. He Yaoyao took a deep breath, as if she had returned to her home.

Even though she still had no memories of this place, she inexplicably felt that she belonged here, where she once lived. Every brick and tile may carry her memories, but also hide secrets that make her heartbroken.

They first came to the university where He Yaoyao had attended.

The scenery on campus remains the same, but time has passed and people have changed.

He Yaoyao strolled on the familiar playground, as if she could see herself playing and frolicking with her classmates back then.

She walked into the library and gently ran her fingertips across the covers of the books, trying to find some traces of the past from the words.

However, her memory seemed to be shrouded in thick fog. She could only vaguely feel some vague shadows but could not capture any fragments clearly.

When she came out of the library in a daze, she unexpectedly ran into someone.

The man helped her steady herself, showing a surprised expression, "Yaoyao, it's you, you're back home."

He Yaoyao knew this person. When Nicholas Tse was injured in the United States, he came to visit Nicholas Tse.

"Yes, I'm back home."

When she thought back on it now, she realized that many of his looks at that time were meaningful.

"Li Mubai, right? Don't you have anything to say to me? Or maybe you could be my guide and help me relive those memories of me and Chi Yu that you're familiar with?"

"You...you remembered everything?" He looked incredulous.

"No, it's just that someone passively input some memories into my mind, but I don't remember any of them. But I know you should know something."

Li Mubai's expression instantly became complicated, showing both surprise and hesitation, but he quickly calmed down and sighed softly, "Yaoyao, there are some things you may not want to remember completely. But since you have decided to come back, I am willing to accompany you and slowly uncover those dusty memories."

They walked side by side on the campus path, surrounded by students hurrying by and occasional laughter.

Li Mubai began to tell stories about the past, those about He Yaoyao, Chi Yu, and the green years they spent together.

"I remember that time, you always liked to read by the window in the library, with the sunlight shining on you, like a painting. And that campus singing competition, your singing of 'Dream Chaser' moved the whole audience, even the judges." Li Mubai's words were filled with nostalgia and tenderness.

He Yaoyao listened quietly. Although the images were still blurry in her mind, she could feel the warmth and beauty.

She couldn't help but ask, "What about Chiyu? Is he involved in my campus life?"

Li Mubai was silent for a moment, as if he was considering his words: "Chi Yu, he didn't. You two met later."

"Really? When?" He Yaoyao asked. A strong curiosity and desire surged in her heart, wanting to lift the lid on this mystery.

"The story is too long to be told in one or two seconds. Yaoyao, why don't we go to another place and go to the classroom where we used to have classes, where you and I had an unexpected encounter."

Li Mubai thought that since Yaoyao was no longer with Xie Nicholas Tse, he might have another chance!

It's impossible to lose to a dead person.

He now wants to tell Yaoyao more about their past stories. Wasn’t it that Yaoyao was the first one to like him?

He Yaoyao nodded, feeling both anticipation and a little nervous.

She followed Li Mubai through the bustling crowd and walked towards the teaching building full of memories.

Every step she took seemed to be stepping on the ripples of time, making her mood extremely complicated.

In the classroom, the desks and chairs are neatly arranged, and there are still traces of chalk writing from the previous class on the blackboard. The air is filled with the faint scent of ink and the breath of youth.

He Yaoyao stood on the podium, looking around, trying to find more clues in this familiar yet unfamiliar environment.

"This is where we first spoke." Li Mubai pointed to a corner of the classroom, a look of nostalgia on his face. "That day, you forgot to bring your textbook, and I happened to have an extra one, so I lent it to you. Do you remember?"

He Yaoyao shook her head, but her eyes showed a hint of tenderness: "I don't remember, but it sounds beautiful."

Li Mubai smiled slightly and continued to talk about every little thing that happened between them.

From participating in club activities together to studying for exams in the library late at night; from solving difficult problems together to sharing each other's dreams and secrets.

He described every detail vividly, as if those days happened just yesterday.

"That's great." He Yaoyao also heard some of the details, "We were attracted to each other before, right? Then why didn't we get together?"

"We...were at different times, so we didn't confess our feelings. But we always had each other in our hearts. It was just fate that ultimately we didn't end up together. When I wanted to express my feelings to you again, you already had someone else by your side."

"Is it Chi Yu or Xie Nicholas Tse?" He Yaoyao asked in shock. She found herself afraid to know the answer.

"It's Xie Tingxuan."

Li Mubai thought that he couldn't tell her about the things in his previous life and there was no way to explain it, but it was indeed she who met Xie Nicholas Tse first and was with him.

"It's him……"

He Yaoyao's expression is difficult to discern.

"But it doesn't matter. You've been entangled with him for so long, and now you've broken up with him. It means he's not right for you at all."

If she and Nicholas Tse fell in love at the right time and loved each other, she would be happy.

"Then how did Chiyu and I meet? Tell me!"

"You and Chiyu?"

Xie Tingxuan paused and said, "Is it really necessary to know? He's already passed away. The more you know, the more it will only bring back your sorrows."

He Yaoyao heard this and looked at Li Mubai with a firm gaze, her voice trembling slightly. "It's necessary. No matter what the outcome, it's a part of my life and I have the right to know. Moreover, I believe that knowing more will help me better face the past and the future."

Li Mubai looked at her determined eyes, feeling mixed emotions.

He knew that once those dusty memories were uncovered, it might bring unpredictable emotional impact to He Yaoyao, but seeing how persistent she was, he couldn't bear to refuse.

"Okay," he sighed softly and began to tell the story of He Yaoyao and Chi Yu. "You and Chi Yu met at a cocktail party. At that time, you had just ended your relationship with Nicholas Tse, and Chi Yu was a special guest. He was a talented star."

"During that event, you gradually bonded over shared interests and mutual support in the face of adversity. Chiyu's gentleness, wisdom, and unique perspective on life captivated you. And you, with your innocence and resilience, slowly found your way into his heart. After the event, you began to keep in touch frequently, and your relationship blossomed into a relationship that felt so natural, as if destined."
