Crossing to the Future, it's Not Easy to Be a Man Chapter 549

Xie Yi was the first to look up from his thoughts . He said to Ling Lan, “Boss, I'm willing to merge . ” If he didn't merge, he would need to suppress the dark alter ego . However, he didn't hate the dark alter ego . He had now seen the world that the dark alter ego lived in and couldn't bear to let him continue living in it . His father was right—he was too soft-hearted .

The dark alter ego looked at Xie Yi in disbelief . “Your boss said you might not be the main ego in the end . Why are you still willing to merge?”

Xie Yi smiled . His smile was bright and vibrant just as before . “If you become the main ego, it must be because you are stronger than me . I can accept that . ” Xie Yi was speaking the truth . If he couldn't even win against his dark alter ego, who had only held his body for a few minutes, he felt that he would have no rights to be the main ego .

The dark alter ego stared at Xie Yi intently . After a few seconds, he turned his head and said to Ling Lan, “Since he's willing to take the risk, I have nothing to worry about either . ” Ling Lan was very powerful . If Xie Yi chose to suppress him, Ling Lan would definitely help Xie Yi . The dark alter ego knew that at that time, he would be sealed again and this seal would be stronger than the one before . He might not be able to break it at all…

Xie Yi's decision had given him another path . He finally understood what his father's last words meant . Xie Yi was a soft-hearted person . Xie Yi gave him a chance to live after he broke the seal . If he had been the main ego, he would have calculated all his gains and losses and chosen the path that benefited him the most . He would not have given Xie Yi any chances .

As the dark alter ego felt grat.i.tude, the hatred and anger in his heart disappeared . The two people began to grow closer to one another in front of Ling Lan…

“Open your minds and accept one another . ” Ling Lan's cold voice rang beside their ears and they followed her words . Xie Yi accepted the dark alter ego's negative emotions and the dark alter ego accepted Xie Yi's life in the past 19 years .

“So this is how painful it felt to stay here alone… but all of that is going to end soon . You'll have an interesting life just like mine in the future . I'll accompany you for the rest of your life . ”

“So you have negative emotions, too . Your life wasn't all happy and smooth . You also had your downs . ” When the dark alter ego saw the memories of how Ling Lan tormented Xie Yi till he almost died, he laughed silently . “Will I be able to experience all this as well?”

“Yes, we're supposed to be together . You only slept for a few years and missed out on that period . But my memories are yours, just like how your memories are mine, too . ”

“We'll learn and grow together!” Xie Yi and the dark alter ego smiled at each other, following which they turned into two b.a.l.l.s of mist, which began to intertwine . Gradually, a new human figure was formed .

“What will Xie Yi's personality be like?” Ling Lan thought curiously . She wanted to smile but got a shock instead . She waved her finger and a piece of cloth wrapped around the human figure .

What the h.e.l.l . Did the new human figure have to be naked? Ling Lan was once again reminded that she was a female . She didn't have what the other party had .

Xie Yi abruptly opened his eyes and, noticing the cloth wrapped around him, waved his hand . The cloth disappeared . Ling Lan appeared in front of him . He smiled and cried out, “Boss!”

“Wear your clothes . ” A cold voice entered his ear .

Xie Yi looked down and he patted his forehead while laughing . He was grateful for his boss' thoughtfulness which prevented him from feeling awkward . He snapped his fingers and his school uniform appeared on him . He looked at himself and made sure that he was presentable before crying out again, “Boss, I'm done . ”

Ling Lan turned around to look at Xie Yi and asked calmly, “How do you feel?”

Xie Yi took a deep breath and narrowed his eyes, enjoying his current state of being . “I feel good . My body feels energized . ” He widened his eyes and looked at Ling Lan seriously as he continued, “I want to fight you again . I want to see if you're worthy of my loyalty . ”

“Loyalty?” Ling Lan raised her eyebrows . “I don't lack people who are loyal to me . ”

“Like how I was in the past?” Xie Yi gave a sinister smile .

“That's my comrade . ” Ling Lan walked closer to Xie Yi . Her eyes pierced right into his gaze and he couldn't maintain his smile anymore .

“Aren't you sad that I'm the one here?” Xie Yi tried to force out a smile again . He had made a deal with Xie Yi; he needed to find out what Xie Yi was to Ling Lan .

“He is him, you are you . Is there a difference?” Ling Lan replied indifferently . “I believe him . He won't disappoint me . ”

“Unfortunately, he lost . He was taken over by me . Your comrade has disappeared . ” Xie Yi retracted his smile and cold insanity filled his eyes .

Xie Yi's words didn't anger Ling Lan . She reached out to calmly fix Xie Yi's tie, following which she lightly touched Xie Yi's clothes as if she were patting some dust away . After doing all this, she said, “If you want to understand me and understand my relations.h.i.+p with Xie Yi, stay alive . Find and feel it for yourself . ”

Xie Yi's eyes turned red and tears silently fell from his eyes . “Can I still live?”

“Of course . As long as you want to live, you can . Merging doesn't mean that one of you has to die . You two can live together,” Ling Lan replied sincerely .

“I want to live, I want to live…” Xie Yi repeated these words over and over again .

“Continue to live then . ” Ling Lan hugged Xie Yi tightly and patted his back hard .

Xie Yi's expression became more firm . When he opened his eyes again, the cold insanity in them was gone—his eyes were calm . He raised his head to look at Ling Lan and smiled . “Boss, you're hugging me too tightly . It hurts . ”

Ling Lan let go of Xie Yi and carefully examined him . She nodded after a while . “Doesn't look bad . ”

“Isn't it better if I destroy the dark alter ego?” Xie Yi asked unhappily .

“Destroying him won't solve anything,” Ling Lan replied nonchalantly . “Also, you can't destroy him . I think that he will most likely destroy you instead . ”

“Then why didn't you believe him just now?” Xie Yi was curious .

“Because you can't bear to destroy him,” Ling Lan replied .

“Not fun at all . How did you know that the personality I showed just now wasn't me?” Xie Yi felt unhappy .

“By feeling,” Ling Lan answered . Before Xie Yi could ask anything again, she said, “Since your problem is solved, let's go back now . ” She snapped her fingers and the both of them disappeared from Xie Yi's mindscape .
