Capítulo 9: Chapter 53: "He Had Clearly Decided to Give Up"
Ye Chenyuan didn't question why she knew this story. He only hoarsely asked, "Why did he die?"
Embarrassed, Yuan Chu scratched the back of her head. "I'm not very interested in these love stories, so I don't quite remember the ending haha…"
Ye Chenyuan didn't say anything. His gaze slowly turned towards the door in front of him.
His heart must be truly devoted to someone for him to open the door?
Thinking of this, he suddenly reached his hand forward.
Yuan Chu laughed as she said, "Enough, don't waste your strength. You can't open it…"
The final word choked in her mouth. In her last life, Ye Chenyuan was not able to open the door for his entire life. This time, just by gently pushing the door, he ended up opening them right before her eyes!
They heard a prolonged hum as if there was an awakening of a story. Light pooled out upon the opening of the door, enveloping them.
Yuan Chu's jaw was about to drop to the floor. How could Ye Chenyuan open it? Was this not unscientific?! Was this d*mn door so old that it no longer had spiritual energy to keep itself shut anymore?
If she had known earlier, she would have tried too; it was said that only the person who pushed open the door could see his beloved's appearance in the mirror behind the door.
But what Yuan Chu didn't know was that Ye Chenyuan's emotions were in turmoil. At first, he had doubted his feelings. However, when he saw Yuan Chu's smile and when he so easily opened the door, his heart sped. He almost couldn't breathe.
Ye Chenyuan suppressed his countless restless emotions. He looked at the blue-clothed man next to him. It took all his strength to restrain himself.
"Let's go and take a look."
"Huh? Yes, yes!" Yuan Chu snapped out of her daze and followed him in. Her thoughts still flew inside her mind. The chances of the door being too old were pretty small. For Ye Chenyuan to be able to open the door, could he have someone he liked in his heart?"
However, the only one he met who stood out was Ji Hongyan. Could Ye Chenyuan be a tsundere? Then wasn't her presence a bit of a hindrance?
With a wild drama running wild inside her mind, Yuan Chu followed Ye Chenyuan in. Now, she realized that there was a very, very big mirror in front of them!
RIght, it was just a mirror. It showed the two of them in its reflection. Besides this mirroring function, it was not nearly as mysterious as the rest of the world had made it seem to be. For instance, that bit about being able to see your true love's appearance.
Yuan Chu walked over and knocked on it. It was just a normal mirror without any spiritual energy on it. Was the legend just a prank?
Fancy that this place was spread around as being so amazing and mysterious. It was even recorded in the nearby city's annals. So was it just the fantasies of the later generation?
Compared to her disappointment, Ye Chenyuan became despondent the moment he saw the mirror. There were only the two of them in the mirror. This made him clench his hand at his side.
Then, he heard Yuan Chu say, "Seems like there's nothing interesting here. Let's go search around for a while. How about we split whatever we find three to seven? After all, it was me who brought you here."
Ye Chenyuan didn't move. After a long time, he breathed in a long breath.
"Senior, I don't want anything else. Just this palace. Is that alright?"
Yuan Chu looked at him strangely. "Although this place looks nice, it doesn't do anything else. What are you going to do with it if you keep it?"
Ye Chenyuan lowered his head. "I just really want her [it]."1
For some reason, when Yuan Chu heard Ye Chenyuan say "I just really want her [it]", her entire body went numb. It was like his "her" was referring to herself.
"Uh… How could I have the face to do that? How about this? You can have this palace, and we can still share everything else three to seven."
Yuan Chu thought to herself. The underwater inheritance must be given to Ye Chenyuan. After all, many of Ye Chenyuan's future opportunities would be underwater.
She felt moved by herself. She suddenly thought that she was walking farther and farther down the path of a benevolent master. Everyone else talked about henpecked husbands or henpecked fathers. Why did she feel like she had a bit of a henpecked master tendency?
Ye Chenyuan didn't say much to her words, only nodding.
Then, they started to search on their own. After Ye Chenyuan left, Yuan Chu was not in a hurry to find any treasures. This place was a small inheritance. Although she liked to fight over stuff with the male lead in her last life, she didn't care much about a place like this. She had only said to divide what they found three to seven out of habit.
With these thoughts in mind, she walked deeper into the palace, fanning herself. Was the inside of the new house beautiful as well, she wondered.
She walked in and was met with an otherworldly beauty inside. There was any furniture you could possibly need, each with divine craftsmanship. Yuan Chu picked up a pot that was meant to hold the wedding wine. She shook it. There was still liquid inside. She couldn't help but sigh; if only everything could have been made out of better materials. It was such a waste for such perfect creations.
She continued inwards. Meanwhile, outside, Venerable Li asked Ye Chenyuan, "Why did you come out? What if there are good things inside the palace?"
However, Ye Chenyuan didn't reply. He clutched his chest and tried to hold back his emotions, to keep them from spilling out onto his face. In the end, he breathed, leaning on a coral pillar. His eyes were calm, his thoughts hidden in its depth.
"What's wrong?" Venerable Li immediately became anxious when he saw that there was something off about Ye Chenyuan. "Strange, your emotions are fluctuating so intensely!"
Because he inhabited Ye Chenyuan's sea of consciousness, he could sense Ye Chenyuan's emotions if he tried. Currently, they were very volatile!
Ye Chenyuan closed his eyes. It was not intense. He was just in pain. A lot of pain.
Back when his mother was taken away, he hated… hated how helpless he was.
Back when the members of his clan bullied and humiliated him, he was unreconciled, so he dedicated his entire soul into becoming strong.
Back when people were trying to kill him, he was so enraged, he didn't even fear death!
However, after such a long time, this was his first time tasting such suffering. It was the kind of bitterness that arose from the emotions he suppressed in the deepest parts of his soul. His every bone ached with the helplessness he felt.
But the most tragic part? He could not say a word about his suffering to anyone.
From the moment Yuan Chu appeared, he felt an intense feeling. Clearly, she was entirely different, but as long as she appeared, she would be the focus of his gaze. Even after Venerable Li had said that she was a stranger, he still deeply believed it was her.
And that mirror proved his intuition!
You will be able to see the appearance of your true love once you open the door… But there was only him and Yuan Chu in that mirror!
She was his most beloved person. No matter what appearance she transformed into, the mirror would reflect her, telling him that she was his true love…
But why?!

Ye Chenyuan grasped his chest and slowly kneeled down, hugging himself.
He had already decided to give up! He had used those two months to adjust his feelings. Only by cultivating as if his life depended on it did he manage to control his thoughts. Why did she appear? Why did she appear?!
The moment she appeared, all of his hard work shattered so easily. A tide of longing threatened to drown him, dragging him under.
He… had truly decided to give up!
