"Everyone will forget you? Including Xi Linghe?" Li Yingjun frowned, finding it hard to accept, then looked at Tianmiao with a complex expression. "So, you really are a god."
"Li Yingjun." Tianmiao’s voice became ethereal.
"What?" Li Yingjun was puzzled.
"What if you read Xi Linghe’s name backward?" Tianmiao smiled, and then, before Li Yingjun’s incredulous eyes, transformed into points of starlight and vanished.
Time began to flow again, and everyone returned to normal.
However, Li Yingjun discovered that it seemed like everyone had forgotten about Tianmiao’s existence.
He opened the forum to find no information about Tianmiao. Instead, there was information about a transfer student named Xi Linghe, as well as posts revealing the terrible actions of Wu Yihan after a family misfortune, followed by comments full of condemnation and retributions.
Xi Linghe, as a transfer student, claimed the top spot in the first monthly exam and never relinquished it. At the school’s anniversary gala, she wore ancient costumes and dazzled everyone with a solo performance on the Dong Xiao. Her best friend wasn’t Tianmiao, but Yuan Wei.
She had truly forgotten Tianmiao entirely.
What about Wei Ling?
"Wei Ling? He didn’t come to class. He said he wasn’t feeling well today." Gu Nanyu thumbed through his textbook absent-mindedly, pondering when to confess to Dai Shiqi. Should he wait until after the college entrance exams?
Wei Ling wasn’t at home nor in class at that moment. He stood in front of Gu Nanyu’s parking spot, clutching his heart. He felt like he had forgotten something important, but what could it be?
Li Yingjun glanced at Xi Linghe, who was explaining questions to Yuan Wei, and suddenly remembered what Tianmiao had said before leaving.
Read Xi Linghe’s name backward.
Xi Linghe, He Lingxi...
He Lingxi!!!
It was her!
It was He Lingxi!
Xi Linghe seemed to sense someone looking at her. She looked up and saw Li Yingjun staring at her in surprise, finding it odd but not overthinking it, then continued explaining the problems to Yuan Wei.
"I see." Li Yingjun laughed, "A god... an almighty god. But even gods make mistakes. You can’t see through the true feelings of humans. You think I protect her because I like her? Of course not, I just didn’t want something so exceptional to be ruined..."
Years later.
Xi Linghe formed her own team in pharmacology. They developed many special medicines for various difficult diseases, most of which were sold to Li Yingjun’s company.
Xi Linghe and Dai Shiqi co-founded a charitable fund to say no to school bullying. It aimed to help children suffering from school violence, providing them a platform for assistance.
Twenty years later, an unknown deadly virus broke out, swiftly sweeping across the nation.
Xi Linghe’s team worked day and night to tackle this challenge, eventually developing a special medicine and vaccine, controlling the pandemic, and preventing even greater human losses.
...
"It turns out this He Lingxi is so remarkable. No wonder she is the person of destiny in this world." Kong Hou remarked, watching Xi Linghe’s achievements.
"Yes. That’s why she cannot die." Tianmiao nodded.
"However, human emotions are truly complex. Who would have thought even you couldn’t see through Li Yingjun’s thoughts? I also thought he liked He Lingxi." Kong Hou patted his Dragon Horn, recalling the cartoon dragon he saw today had a little hat on its horn, wondering if he should get a little hat for his Dragon Horn too.
"Indeed..." Tianmiao smiled, "Alright, let’s start the next world."
