Extra Story: Extra Story 02

It was night at the back mountain of the Luo family's ancestral estate.

A black cat, trembling all over, finished reporting the current situation.

[Little Black: Lin Ran, Luo Yao, are you sure you aren't going to intervene?]

Lin Ran thought for a moment. "Those who do not understand love do not deserve to receive it."

Luo Yao shot a glance at Lin Ran. "In our past life, you seemed to..."

"Yaoyao, can we not bring up that dark history? In our first life, I loved you to the point of madness. If it weren't for this cat, we would have been together ages ago."

As he spoke, both of their gazes landed simultaneously on Little Black.

Feeling those two piercing stares, Little Black shuddered. [Have you two no shame? Don't forget, it is *this cat* who has kept your appearances eternally youthful.]

A glint of cold light appeared in Luo Yao's hand, and Little Black's fur instantly stood on end.

"If you dare to run, I'll have someone demolish your home."

[Little Black: Luo Yao is too cruel, meow, meow, meow!]

Little Black looked at Lin Ran with pitiful, aggrieved eyes, hoping he would save its feline life.

Lin Ran sighed. "Yaoyao, stop scaring the cat. Let's talk about the children. What are your thoughts?"

Luo Yao tilted her head, looking at Lin Ran in confusion. "The children? What does that have to do with us? Ran, you should focus your attention on me, not on them."

That made sense.

"Alright, let's leave it at that for now and observe. If things reach a point of no return, we can just turn back time."

[Little Black: Reversing time is *my* ability. Why does it sound like it's become your skill?]

"What's yours is mine. We are one entity, so why make such a distinction?"

The temperature in the air dropped instantly. Lin Ran hurriedly explained, "Yaoyao, when I said 'one entity,' I just meant that Little Black is our pet. I didn't mean anything else by it."

Luo Yao shook her head and gently leaned close to Lin Ran's ear. "Your only pet is me. Little Black is just a cat—a cat that can be slaughtered at any time."

Little Black: ... Please spare this poor child.

Feeling that gaze full of love and the rising temperature, Lin Ran said, "You're right, wifey. My world contains only you."

[Oh, wow! You two really know how to show off... show off your love. It really makes this cat envious.]

Little Black felt like it had been flashing in and out of the Gates of Hell repeatedly.

It had only survived this long by being sufficiently cowardly and cautious.

Especially after meeting Luo Yao, it had transformed from a straightforward cat into one that knew how to read the room and gauge moods.

"Alright, that's settled then. If it reaches the point of no return, reverse time. But remember to preserve my memories and Yaoyao's, as well as that child Mengxing's memories. Otherwise, she'll probably just get tricked again in the next life."

It wasn't that Lin Ran was pessimistic; it was just that naive people were easy to deceive. Even if they lived again, they would likely remain the same.

[Little Black: Alright. Then what about Lin Nianyao and Jiang Nan?]

Lin Ran thought for a moment and said, "There's no need to keep their memories. After all, they already love each other; right now, it's just a misunderstanding."

[Little Black: Okay! @#¥%…….]

Luo Yao narrowed her eyes. "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Don't forget, I can hear your inner thoughts. If you dare not to preserve mine and Ran's memories, I will tear down your home."

[Luo Yao is too cruel, meow, meow, meow.]

"Ran, it's rare for us to come back here. We haven't done it at the Dragon Vein yet."

Lin Ran smiled. "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go."

Little Black: ...

So, should I leave?

As the night deepened, Little Black's home was commandeered by others, while outside, the cat wept floods of tears in solitude.

"Ran, I've noticed you're a bit too concerned about those two unfilial children. You must remember, your eyes can only hold me."

"Of course. We are true love; they were just accidents."

Luo Yao revealed an eerie smile. "If they ever occupy your heart, I wouldn't mind kicking them out of the family."

A finger gently silenced Luo Yao's lips. "They don't have that kind of capability. They are merely the crystallization of our love, the capital allowing us to live off our offspring."

Accompanied by cheerful laughter and amorous whispers, the two once again tore through the silence of the night sky.

By the time they finished, dawn had broken.
