Chapter 220: What Is Love (4)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
This time he himself also felt something not right.
However sleepy he was, he could never sleep from morning to night, without even opening his eyes. Besides, he had just woken up this morning. How could he feel sleepy again so soon?
So he asked Yin Jinye, “Daddy, did you cast a spell on me or what, so I would sleep the whole day?”
Yin Jinye asked him, “You really don’t remember?”
Rong Yi was confused, “Remember what?”
“About what you have done after you fell asleep.”
Rong Yi felt both surprised and confused now, “You mean I did something after I fell asleep? What did I do?”
Yin Jinye looked over to the rouge and pearl powder on the dresser, “See it yourself.”
Rong Yi moved before the dresser and saw a big box of rouge, “Where does this come from?”
He then looked at Yin Jinye and suddenly remembered that the original Rong Yi liked making up, so he hurriedly asked, “You mean I bought this?”
Yin Jinye nodded.
But Rong Yi completely had no impression of it at all, “You mean I bought it after I fell asleep?”
“Yeah.” Yin Jinye then got up and continued, “From my observation, after you fell asleep, the original Rong Yi came out. That happened last night too. You suddenly ran out of the inn and shouted and even knocked on people’s door.”
Rong Yi was surprised, “You mean the original Rong Yi’s soul is still inside this body?”
“Yes, didn’t you ever feel his presence?”
Rong Yi shook his head but then nodded. It was not that he had no feelings at all. At first he could feel his heart ached when he heard things about Bai Yunchen. He thought it was due to the residual sense the original owner left in the body, so he didn’t give it too much thinking, “So I started to perform like this from last night?”
“I think so. But I don’t know whether you performed like this at home while I was away a few days ago.” If so, as smart as Rong Yi was, he should have noticed it.
Rong Yi rubbed his aching head, “It never occurred to me before. But why does it happen after I came here? Daddy, is it because my own body is around?”
“Quite possible. After you fell asleep, did you have a feeling that your own soul went back into your own body?”
Rong Yi shook his head, “No, I just felt the same way as usual.”
“Maybe because he hasn’t realized that body has been possessed, or he still hasn’t realized that he has gotten into his own body, so after he possessed his own body, he would act in a strange way, like his whole is incomplete, only does something mechanically, but pays no attention to things happening around.” Yin Jinye then said, “I will send you back home first and observe you for two days. See if you would still behave like this after you are far away from your own body.”
“No need. After we can catch my own body, I can get back into it myself. Then I will give this body back to the original owner. But you keep an eye on me. I’m afraid after I fall asleep, the original Rong Yi might do something unpredictable. So before I catch my own body, I’d try to keep awake, in case the original Rong Yi comes out again.”
Yin Jinye nodded.
But sleeping was not something Rong Yi could control. Right after he said that, his eyelids started to fight again.
Rong Yi hurriedly gave himself a few slaps, trying to keep himself sober. But finally he lost to the sandman and closed his eyes.
Yin Jinye quickly supported him to sit in the chair.
Soon Rong Yi opened his eyes. On seeing Yin Jinye, he immediately got his eyes reddened, and said while covering his aching face, “You slapped me…”
Yin Jinye, “…”
“You slapped me…” Rong Yi used his feeble fist to punch Yin Jinye’s chest, and said with a girlish tone, “You big villain! If you disfigures me, my senior brother would no longer like me.”
Yin Jinye really neither liked nor was used to him saying like that, so he lowered his voice, “Even if you keep that face all good, your senior brother still wouldn’t like you.”
“You…” His words was a big blow to Rong Yi. So he turned around and started to cry out loud on the dresser.
Yin Jinye, “…”
If he had behaved like that when Yin Jinye saw him the first time, he might have strangled him.
On hearing the crying, Jian Ying who was hiding on the roof looked down into the room and directly looked into Yin Jinye’s eyes, and he hurriedly withdrew his body.
At this time, Rong Yi looked up to Yin Jinye, “Why am I crying? Is Rong Yi out again?”
Yin Jinye quickly used Soul-sealing arts on him and locked the original Rong Yi deep inside his body. Actually he also had no idea whether it would work.
Rong Yi then took out a few runes and drew something on them and then stuffed them inside his robe, “This time he wouldn’t come out so soon.”
Yin Jinye stared at him but didn’t say anything.
Rong Yi touched his own face, “Why are you staring at me like that? I got something on my face?”
“When I saw him crying like that, I really wanted to kill him.” Yin Jinye used his finger to wipe off the tears on Rong Yi’s eyelashes while saying that. But when he saw this Rong Yi with red eyes and a hoarse voice, he really didn’t have the heart to hurt him a bit.
“Don’t!” Rong Yi was really worried Yin Jinye would do so, “Even if you want to, you have to wait till I go back to my own body.”
Yin Jinye said blandly, “But if he keeps calling his senior brother’s name or saying he wants his senior brother, I can’t guarantee that I could hold myself.”
Rong Yi was speechless, “He still can’t forget his Bai Yunchen? If he comes out again, you tell him his senior brother likes his father Rong Weiyi and let him give up on him.”
Yin Jinye, “…”
In the next three days, the original Rong Yi didn’t come out again. But the person on the other side of the house started to move because they could hear some footsteps.
Yin Jinyi’s people tried to stay focused, only afraid that the person on the opposite side would leave without them noticing. So they all kept a close eye.
On the morning of the sixth day, the man in the room finally came out. He was wearing a red robe, with a mask on the face.
