Lu Mingfei, how can you slay a dragon if you don't play the villain?

He glanced at the baseball cap girl's avatar flashing in the bottom right corner of the screen.

The answer that once made him wait for hours now held no appeal for him.

He quickly clicked to log off, and as he stood up, the old sofa groaned under its strain.

The moment I pushed open the glass door of the internet cafe, a damp night breeze rushed in.

With the thought of getting home as soon as possible in mind, he quickened his pace.

……

eight pm.

By the time Lu Mingfei realized what was happening, he had already arrived at the entrance of California Sunshine.

Looking at the magnificent gate of California Sunshine, Lu Mingfei's lips curled into a bitter smile.

Unexpectedly, after the world reset, his subconscious "home" was still in the California sunshine.

Beside the gate, two uniformed security guards were huddled together smoking and talking in hushed tones.

Lu Mingfei's hearing was far superior to that of ordinary people, and the clear conversation drifted over.

They seem to be having a heated discussion about the explosive "sex photo scandal" that just broke out involving two popular celebrities.

He shook his head and walked along the wall bathed in California sunlight.

There's a security gate at the entrance to California Sunshine; if he just swaggers in, he might get into a conflict with the security guards.

So he chose to take the shortcut.

He arrived at a deserted street under a tree, and his golden eyes suddenly lit up in the darkness.

He carefully examined the surrounding cameras, but none of them could capture him there.

With a light leap, he cleared the towering wall and entered the California Sunshine Community.

After landing, there is a green belt of Pittosporum tobira, with several laurel trees planted in it.

He twitched his nose, and the rich fragrance of osmanthus wafted towards him.

He walked slowly in the direction of the Liu family mansion, following his memory.

He knew very well in his heart that it was highly likely... that everyone in the Liu family had forgotten about him.

But my feet still involuntarily led me slowly toward that place.

He just... wanted to come and see.

Outside the gate of the Liu family mansion.

Lu Mingfei hid in the shadows of the courtyard, his eyes gleaming with golden light as he gazed at the familiar villa.

Warm yellow light streamed through the delicate window frames, illuminating the night like solidified warm amber.

He could almost picture the heartwarming scene inside—Liu's parents were probably talking quietly with Liu Miaomiao, their laughter filling the air.

He hesitated for a long time, but in the end, he suppressed the urge to sneak in and get closer to that warmth.

He subconsciously looked up, his gaze trying to find the room that "once" belonged to him.

however--

As far as the eye could see, there were no closed windows.

A young girl walked to an open window on the third floor.

The next moment, their eyes met in the darkness of the night.

The girl's eyes widened instantly, her pupils dilating with shock and sudden fear!

"Oh no!" Lu Mingfei's heart skipped a beat!

Because the world has reset!

To Liu Miaomiao now, he is just a classmate!

Just imagine:

It was nighttime, and I met a male classmate I barely knew.

He appeared alone and silently outside your yard wall.

Their eyes are fixed on your house, or even staring at you...

What would she think?

They'll definitely call the police!

In reality, Lu Mingfei had misunderstood the situation.

He hid in the shadows, and Liu Miaomiao could not possibly see his face from the bright lights.

The reason Liu Miaomiao discovered him was quite simple: his golden eyes, which glowed in the darkness, frightened her.

In an instant, Lu Mingfei's thoughts raced:

Turn around and run away?

She would likely scream for help immediately and spread the word about this "perverted voyeur"!

The consequences can be imagined!

In the next instant, Lu Mingfei moved!

Without further hesitation, he pushed off with his feet, and his entire body seemed to break free from the constraints of gravity, soaring lightly into the air!

"Whoosh—" A clean and crisp trajectory swept across the quiet night sky, appearing in front of Liu Miaomiao's window in the blink of an eye!

Liu Miaomiao let out a short, sharp gasp, staring in utter shock at the figure that had just been in the shadows of the courtyard, now crouching on the windowsill of her house!

The cool night breeze outside the window ruffled the hem of his clothes.

Lu Mingfei bent slightly, maintaining his balance on the narrow windowsill.

He raised his eyes and gazed at her silently, then lowered his voice and said:

"Miaomiao...classmate."

"You...you're not going to call the police, are you?"

Like a frightened little animal, Liu Miaomiao instinctively covered her mouth tightly with both hands to prevent herself from actually screaming.

Her muffled voice, muffled by her hand, trembled as she tried to maintain her composure, clearly betraying her panic:

"I...I won't tell! Don't worry!"

“Very good!” Lu Mingfei nodded.

What should I do next?

Looking at Liu Miaomiao's slightly trembling body, Lu Mingfei knew.

She was terrified of herself!

"Don't be afraid, I won't do anything to you!" he said gently, trying to soothe Liu Miaomiao's emotions.

Liu Miaomiao's eyes darted around, and she asked softly, "Lu Mingfei, are you an immortal?"

"I don't think so," Lu Mingfei shook his head. "I'm just a cultivator."

The sixth chapter of the Shangqing Sword Scripture he practiced was titled "The Sword Immortal Chapter".

Presumably, only those who reach that level can be called immortals.

He instructed, "Alright, don't tell anyone about what happened tonight."

As soon as Lu Mingfei finished speaking, he pushed off backward and flew backward.

After a graceful turn in mid-air, he landed steadily behind the courtyard wall.

Liu Miaomiao quickly stepped forward, grabbed the windowsill with both hands, leaned out half of her body, and kept scanning the surrounding scenery with her eyes.

But Lu Mingfei's figure had already disappeared into the night.

A hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes, which then turned into a look of great curiosity.

Although Lu Mingfei had long suspected that only he remembered that rewritten memory.

But when the truth is right in front of me, my heart aches!

He walked slowly through the neighborhood, unsure of where to go.

He just kept walking and walking.

He had somehow walked out of the California sunshine and was wandering aimlessly through the streets.

Finally, he sat down on a curb by an intersection and watched the vehicles and pedestrians come and go.

It seemed that he was the only one excluded from the entire world.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Multicolored sparks suddenly burst forth in the sparsely starlit night sky.

Lu Mingfei looked up and saw that someone was setting off fireworks.

He was extremely envious whenever he saw a group of children playing together.

But he had no money, couldn't afford fireworks, and no one wanted to play with him!

Chapter 105 Chen Wenwen (Second Update)

In the living room, the uncle and aunt sat side by side on the old fabric sofa.

The television screen was playing the popular new drama "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," with light and shadow dancing in the slightly dim room.

"Tsk, this new film doesn't feel right. It doesn't feel as classic as the old one..." the uncle muttered under his breath.

The aunt beside her ignored her completely, not even lifting her eyelids, her entire attention glued to the phone screen emitting a faint blue light.

Seeing that he received no response, the uncle awkwardly shut his mouth and continued to stare blankly at the TV.

"Knock knock knock! Knock knock knock!" A series of knocks, not too urgent but clear enough, suddenly rang out.

That sound was like flipping a switch that triggered my aunt's temper!
