Chapter 171 The Gentle Man of the Romantic Young Master 27
Chapter 171 The Gentle Man of the Romantic Young Master 27
The next day.
When Rong Jingyan woke up, he did not see Lu Huaiyuan in the room.
He felt a little confused, but didn't think too much about it.
After getting up, Rong Jingyan wandered around the house slowly and finally found someone in the study.
Lu Huaiyuan sat at the desk, his chin supported by one hand, obviously distracted.
His other hand rested casually on the table, his index finger tapping on it.
There was a newspaper in front of Lu Huaiyuan.
But because of the distance, Rong Jingyan could not see the content clearly.
He felt strange, but did not say anything. He just walked closer slowly.
Rong Jingyan had just walked to Lu Huaiyuan's side when he was pulled into his arms by the other party.
Rong Jingyan did not struggle and sat on Lu Huaiyuan's lap.
"Why don't you sleep more?"
Rong Jingyan yawned upon hearing this and said truthfully, "I didn't see you when I woke up, so I came out to look for you."
Lu Huaiyuan rubbed his head: "What are you looking for? I'm not a child, I can't get lost."
As he spoke, his eyes turned slightly and he said jokingly, "Or is it that Mr. Rong is afraid that I will run away?"
Rong Jingyan rolled his eyes at him and threatened, "If you dare to run, I'll break your legs."
Seeing him like this, Lu Huaiyuan couldn't help but laugh.
"So fierce! I'm so scared!"
Rong Jingyan reached out and pinched him: "You're so unruly all the time!"
Lu Huaiyuan raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and sniffed his neck: "Mr. Rong is so gentle and refined, doesn't it mean that he likes people like me who are not serious?"
Rong Jingyan stretched out his hand and pulled his head away, his tone somewhat angry: "Shameless!"
He was well aware of Lu Huaiyuan's shameless nature, so he naturally didn't want to talk to him any more about this issue.
After all, in the end, he was the first to be defeated, and he was defeated miserably and completely.
Rong Jingyan felt that in terms of shamelessness, Lu Huaiyuan was far ahead of others.
Thinking of this, he quickly changed the subject before the other party could speak.
"What were you reading just now?" Rong Jingyan turned his head to look at the newspaper on the table and asked.
Lu Huaiyuan jokingly said, "Of course I'm reading the masterpiece written by the erudite Mr. Rong!"
He seemed to be smiling, but the smile did not reach his dark eyes.
However, Rong Jingyan, who was reading the newspaper at the time, obviously did not notice this abnormality.
"You've seen it all?" He put down the newspaper in his hand and said in the same tone as usual: "It's just a random scrawl, it's not a masterpiece."
Lu Huaiyuan laughed and said, "How can it not be considered a masterpiece?"
"I'm afraid this article will cause a sensation in all walks of life. Mr. Rong is indeed too modest."
After hearing what he said, there was no obvious change on Rong Jingyan's face.
But his hands under the table couldn't help but tighten.
Lu Huaiyuan seemed not to notice his abnormality and just hugged him again.
"Why did you suddenly think of writing such an article?" he asked.
Hearing this, Rong Jingyan looked up at him with a serious expression and asked, "Don't you like it?"
"How could I not like it!" Lu Huaiyuan reached out and touched his face: "The world described by Mr. Rong is truly fascinating."
“I think no one would dislike it.”
Lu Huaiyuan didn't show anything unusual, but Rong Jingyan felt that something was wrong.
"A Yuan, you..."
As soon as he said that, an index finger touched his lips.
"Shhh."
Lu Huaiyuan stroked his cheek gently, his tone calm: "Sir, you haven't answered my question yet."
Rong Jingyan swallowed his saliva: "I...that..."
"It's just that, the inspiration suddenly came to me, I thought it was pretty good, so I just wrote it, I didn't think about anything else."
It was clearly something he had thought of long ago, but when he said it now, he still stuttered a little.
"Really?" Lu Huaiyuan tilted his head and looked at him, a smile on his face: "So that's how it is!"
Rong Jingyan's heart tightened, and he grabbed his hand: "A Yuan!"
Lu Huaiyuan: "I really like this article. I wonder if Mr. Rong could talk to me about your writing ideas and sources of inspiration?"
His hand slid down the spine, sending shivers down wherever it touched.
Rong Jingyan: "I..."
After hearing what Lu Huaiyuan said, what else could he not understand?
But he had guessed that the other party might become suspicious.
But now that his dream has come true, he finds it a little difficult to cope with it.
Lu Huaiyuan's eyes flickered: "Why, you can't tell me? Or you can't tell me?"
Rong Jingyan panted slightly: "No, no..."
Before he could finish his words, Lu Huaiyuan took over the conversation.
"Oh, it's not that you can't tell me, but you can't tell me?"
"It's okay." Lu Huaiyuan chuckled. "Mr. Rong doesn't want to talk about it, but I also know a little bit about interrogation methods."
Rong Jingyan hurriedly shook his head: "No, A Yuan, I..."
Lu Huaiyuan raised his eyebrows: "Ayan, are you going to tell me?"
Rong Jingyan nodded, but said: "You, you let me go first."
Lu Huaiyuan raised the corner of his lips, leaned close to his ear, and said, "It's okay, you can hear it clearly this way."
Rong Jingyan couldn't stop him, so he could only finish his words quickly.
"I once had a dream, in which..."
Rong Jingyan spoke haltingly, but Lu Huaiyuan understood the meaning of his words.
He had been to a 'strange' place, and everything he wrote in his article came from that world.
Rong Jingyan: "After I woke up, I wanted to write down everything I saw in my dream, so I wrote this article."
He grabbed Lu Huaiyuan's hand and raised his head slightly: "This is what happened. I've told you everything I need to say. Ah Yuan, you..."
Lu Huaiyuan kissed his forehead and asked, "Have I ever appeared in Ah Yan's dreams?"
Rong Jingyan couldn't help but hold his arm tightly, and did not deny: "Yes, yes, you."
.........
Lu Huaiyuan lowered his head and kissed him, blocking out all the words.
After an unknown amount of time, he asked again, "How am I supposed to treat you?"
Rong Jingyan leaned in his arms, still a little dazed.
"Okay, very good." He spoke softly, his voice still a little melancholy.
Lu Huaiyuan kissed the top of his head: "That's good."
Rong Jingyan seemed to understand what he said, but he couldn't help yawning.
He had gone to bed late last night and now he had been busy for most of the day, so he couldn't help feeling a little sleepy.
Lu Huaiyuan didn't say anything else, but gently stroked his hair.
Rong Jingyan couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep in his arms.
Lu Huaiyuan looked down at the person in his arms, his eyes somewhat dark and unclear.
When he learned that the original plot had collapsed, he set his sights on Rong Jingyan.
Because of the marks on his wrist and the situation at the time, he once suspected whether the other party, like Lin Yan, had memories of the future.
However, this speculation was dispelled after meeting Rong Jingyan.
But looking at the occasional hint of paranoia and madness from the other party, as well as the love that was hard to conceal, he couldn't help but wonder whether the other party, like him, had memories of the previous worlds.
But the result of his test clearly denied this.
Lu Huaiyuan was quite puzzled by this.
But it was not until he saw Rong Jingyan's latest article published in the newspaper that he had another guess in his mind.
When the other party was writing this article, he was very mysterious and insisted that he could only see it after the article was published.
Although Lu Huaiyuan didn't understand what he meant, he cooperated with the other party's behavior.
So after the article was published, he went to buy it and read it immediately.
But he really didn't expect that Rong Jingyan really gave him such a big surprise.
Or to be more precise, it is a "big gift" to the literary world.
The name of the article is "Tomorrow" and it tells the story about the future of this country.
It will be decades later, or a hundred years, or even in the more distant future.
It is the envisioned future after the nation is reborn from the ashes.
Others might just think that this was Rong Jingyan’s vision of the future, but Lu Huaiyuan saw the clue in it.
Every small world has its own story, and different histories will evolve into different futures.
Anyone who can write such an article must have personally experienced this story or actually seen such a scene.
If this is the case, then Rong Jingyan’s identity is obvious.
Traveler!
A person who traveled back from the future to the past and witnessed this prosperous future with his own eyes.
It was his appearance that disrupted the timeline and the plot of the small world.
But Lu Huaiyuan couldn't help but feel curious about where the other person's familiarity with him came from.
So for this question, he chose to ask the other party to get the truth.
And from Rong Jingyan's narration just now, it was not difficult for him to guess that they would know each other in the future.
Decades or even hundreds of years in the future, he will return to this small world and meet Rong Jingyan again.
I met Rong Jingyan, a man I had never met before.
Thinking of this, Lu Huaiyuan lowered his head to look at the person in his arms, and his expression couldn't help but soften a little.
He kissed Rong Jingyan on the forehead and then carried her back to the bedroom.
-----------------
Since the last confession, both of them tacitly agreed not to mention it again.
However, what Lu Huaiyuan said was correct. Rong Jingyan's article did cause a great sensation in all walks of life.
Skyscrapers can be seen everywhere, mobile phones can make calls and video calls at any time, and robots can replace human labor...
'Intelligence', 'network', 'robot', these new words are impacting people's thinking.
They may not understand what these represent, but they know that this is a country full of peace.
A future where everyone can have enough food and clothing, a future full of order, and far away from the smoke and flames of war.
In fact, in recent years, some people have made bold assumptions.
But in such a war-torn era, where even survival is a problem, how bold can their imagination be!
Being able to have enough food and clothing, no war, children being able to study with peace of mind, and people living and working in peace and contentment as before, is the limit of what they can imagine.
What will the future be like?
This article gave them the best answer.
Such a prosperous and stable future really makes many people cry.
What they work hard for and strive for is never empty talk; their persistence and sacrifice will one day lead to success.
We will fight bravely for the nation's rebirth from the ashes, and we will die without regrets.
-----------------
Rong Jingyan's articles are indeed inspiring.
People's emotions and fighting spirit are extremely high.
But this result is not what the leaders of these warlord forces want to see.
Compared to the peace that everyone expects, they want the sole power in a corner.
Rather than fighting, they would rather compromise in exchange for temporary peace.
This is exactly contrary to the expectations of the people and the future that Rong Jingyan talked about.
Therefore, Rong Jingyan is regarded as a thorn in the eyes of many forces.
They also dreamed of arresting him and putting him in jail on the charge of inciting the public.
However, with the organization that Rong Jingyan belonged to secretly helping him, the Lu family manipulating him, and Lu Huaiyuan protecting him behind the scenes, these people's plans ultimately failed.
However, Rong Jingyan's articles were stopped from being published, and the newspapers that had been sold were also destroyed in batches.
But people's passionate emotions have never been erased.
This seed is taking root and sprouting.
One day in the future, they will be able to use this to drive out all invaders and truly achieve peace.
Rong Jingyan has a high reputation among students and scholars, so those people are reluctant to do anything blatantly.
But the conspiracies behind the scenes are endless.
As the saying goes, it is easy to dodge a spear but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark.
Lu Huaiyuan stared at the wound on Rong Jingyan's arm, his eyes gradually becoming deeper.
Rong Jingyan tugged at the corner of his clothes and said carefully, "Ayuan, this is just an accident, don't be angry."
He also didn't expect that he would be assassinated on the way back.
They had been prepared, but still got hit accidentally.
Lu Huaiyuan lowered his eyes slightly, his voice somewhat gloomy: "Or, I will go and kill them all."
"Don't!"
Rong Jingyan was so excited that he accidentally pulled the wound and couldn't help but gasp: "Hiss..."
Lu Huaiyuan: "That's what I said, why are you so excited?"
He was a little helpless, but still held the other person's arm and applied medicine to him.
Rong Jingyan smiled awkwardly: "I'm afraid you'll be impulsive, and I'm worried about you."
He paused and advised, "This injury was really an accident. A Yuan, don't worry, I'm fine."
The current situation is not optimistic. If Lu Huaiyuan really kills those people, his family will probably be in chaos before the outsiders even break in.
What's more, he absolutely didn't want Lu Huaiyuan to take risks.
Lu Huaiyuan could probably guess what he was thinking, so he reached out and touched his head: "Okay, I get it, I won't be impulsive."
Rong Jingyan leaned into his arms and asked, "By the way, what day is it today?"
"July 25th." Lu Huaiyuan answered and then asked, "What's wrong?"
Rong Jingyan shook his head: "Nothing, I just suddenly remembered that I have a lecture in early August and haven't prepared yet, so I wanted to calculate how much time is left."
Lu Huaiyuan leaned against his neck and whispered, "It's okay, there's still time, no rush."
Rong Jingyan: “Yeah.”
He leaned comfortably in Lu Huaiyuan's arms and didn't say anything more.
Lu Huaiyuan did promise Rong Jingyan not to be impulsive, but he did not say that he would let certain people go.
He guessed what the other party was thinking and had another plan in mind.
So after a warlord died unexpectedly, his power was quickly divided up.
His death did not cause any stir.

It's purely fictional, don't take it too seriously.
