Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again

Chapter 2010: Chapter 2008: A Legendary Being

So after understanding all of this, he finally let go of everything from the past, although there was still a faint worry in his heart about Chang Qing trapped in that time-space. He didn’t know what it would be like or if it would affect Sister Qiaoqiao now.

Therefore, in his spare time, he would also delve into this area of research. He thought that in his past life he could pave a path in this area, and although he ended up trapped in that time-space, it’s not something an ordinary person can achieve.

Since it was possible in his past life, he was certain he could do it in this life too.

Moreover, he knew nothing about what Chang Qing, who was stuck in that time-space, was doing or thinking now.

Yet there was always a lingering worry in the back of his mind, a worry that the scenario had changed and become uncontrollable.

At this time, Gu Qiaoqiao actually thought the same as Chang Qing. However, what Gu Qiaoqiao contemplated was how her Heaven-reaching Talisman Incantation and the things Chang Qing was researching had remarkable similarities. If the two of them teamed up, could they open the Time-Space Gate and find Chang Qing trapped there?

The most troublesome issue now was, what would they do once they found him?

The Chang Qing from back then and the Chang Qing now were independent entities; merging them was impossible, yet there couldn’t be two Chang Qings simultaneously in this world.

Thus, Chang Qing called Gu Qiaoqiao to the side, and the two expressed their opinions on the matter since there was no need to hide it from each other.

Unexpectedly, Chang Qing had his own idea, "Sister Qiaoqiao, this is my thought. If we can open the Time-Space Gate, then perform reverse deductions to permanently close it, I would stay in this world, and he in that world, as two parallel timespaces, interfering with each other never, forever lacking any connection.

In this way, balance between the two worlds can be maintained. Perhaps my words seem alarming, but the situation has already developed toward an uncontrollable direction, something pure scientific reasoning cannot explain clearly."

Gu Qiaoqiao nodded, "Lately, I haven’t seen him anymore. I don’t know what things are like over there, but I can tell you, Chang Qing, he can come to this world although probably not for long. Last time, I saw him beside the street..."

"Then surely there’s a connecting passage." Gu Qiaoqiao pondered for a moment before continuing.

Then she couldn’t help but think of Yun Luo, wondering if she had seen anything recently, but they had no way of contacting each other; it had been a long time since they’d exchanged opinions on this matter.

"Sister Qiaoqiao, do you think there’s another possibility? After seeing you and Big Brother Qin, knowing everything is well for you now, maybe he let go of his concerns and actively cut off that passage."

Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes brightened. Why hadn’t she thought of this possibility? She hurriedly asked, "Chang Qing, do you have any basis for this conjecture?"

Chang Qing hesitated, blushing a bit, but still smiled at Gu Qiaoqiao and said, "Sister Qiaoqiao, don’t laugh at me, and don’t take this to heart. After he sent me things, starting with the wooden bead bracelet, I often dreamt of another time-space..."

At this point, Chang Qing paused for a moment, glanced at Gu Qiaoqiao’s expression, and seeing Sister Qiaoqiao still smiling, he felt reassured, but he actually hadn’t told the whole truth.

Because most of those dreams involved him and Sister Qiaoqiao, he didn’t know why he always dreamt these scenarios, sometimes dreaming of running on the grasslands with Qiaoqiao, other times dreaming of driving a car, taking Sister Qiaoqiao, speeding across the fields.

All in all, those dreams seemed to be the culmination of what he once hoped for.

"But suddenly, after one day, those dreams never came again."

Chang Qing spoke softly.

"Do you remember which day it was?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked.

Chang Qing thought for a moment but shook his head, "I don’t quite remember, but it should be around the time you last saw him."

Gu Qiaoqiao glanced at Chang Qing, feeling somewhat complex inside; indeed, this was another version of him, but now there were clearly two separate individuals.

At this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly felt a panic in her heart, her heartbeat, which was normal, seemed to stop abruptly, though it quickly recovered; it was a sensation she’d never experienced before.

Gu Qiaoqiao busily placed her fingers to examine her body closely, finding no problem at all.

Yet she still looked toward Chang Qing, softly asking, "Chang Qing, what feeling do you have toward yourself in that time-space?"

Chang Qing furrowed his brows, then slowly relaxed, "Sister Qiaoqiao, I feel we are two independent people, each with our own lives, our own thoughts, and naturally our own life trajectories."

Gu Qiaoqiao nodded, it seemed it should be like that.

But why did she feel anxious?

Finding it inexplicable, Gu Qiaoqiao decided to set it aside. By now, she and Chang Qing had confirmed that the other time-space Chang Qing must have voluntarily closed the passage, which meant that even with her Heaven-reaching Talisman Incantation and Chang Qing’s assistance, it would be impossible to find Chang Qing from another time-space.

Unless she could practice the Heaven-reaching Talisman Incantation to the highest level, the Great Perfection, which is currently unachievable.

If it were that easy, it wouldn’t be called the Heaven-reaching Talisman.

However, if things were as they seemed, it was already the best possible outcome.

At noon, Gu Qiaoqiao cooked a lot of dishes that Chang Qing liked.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yize came driving over.

Upon seeing the stir-fried dishes on the table, Qin Yize’s expression seemed to change subtly, yet after glancing at Gu Qiaoqiao, it disappeared.

Chang Qing greeted Qin Yize warmly and naturally.

Qin Yize extended a hand to pat his shoulder, praising, "Young man, my friends tell me your research project is world-leading now. Thanks to your research, our country has closed a significant gap with those developed nations..."

Upon hearing Qin Yize’s praise, Chang Qing seemed quite excited, as perhaps Gu Qiaoqiao was unaware but he knew all too well that in their field, Qin Yize was a legendary figure.

Two laboratories in their research institute were established by Qin Yize and his team.

His scientific accomplishments were present there.

An exceptional talent of his generation, after returning to his family, he spent only a few years establishing the Qin Group at the pinnacle of the world. Colleagues, knowing his relationship with Qin Yize, envied him greatly, yet he himself could not explain the feeling, though pride was certainly part of it.
