Seeing the man across him, the doctor remained silent for three seconds before saying, “He sustained a severe head injury, and we… did our best.”
“Ugh…” As soon as the words fell, a painful choked sob echoed from someone not far away within the crowd.
This sob seemed like a signal, and the next moment, countless girls’ cries of anguish started to resound one after another in the hallway.
Yan Jingze just stood there in a daze, his eyes devoid of luster, neither dark nor light, appearing completely hollow in an instant.
That person was dead.
The person he had intended to protect for a lifetime was dead.
The person he had fallen in love with, Wen Yichuan, was dead.
It felt as though his heart had suddenly been torn open, a sharp and agonizing sensation filling his entire being as if his entire life had been forcefully cleaved apart.
In this moment, the entire world seemed to blur in his eyes, Yan Jingze’s field of vision was completely filled by the slightly ajar surgery room door.
Yichuan, Yichuan, Yichuan…
Ignoring the cries of Xu Lu behind him, ignoring the echoes of collapse reverberating in the background, he stumbled towards that place. How could that person have died? How… could he have died?
Everything in the surgery room seemed to be icy cold, even the person who lay still and quiet.
Lifting his trembling fingers, he caressed the familiar face. Before his eyes, scenes of their acquaintance and familiarity seemed to float by one after another.
This person was truly like the only glimmer of light in his dark life, yet this brilliance was destroyed by his own hands.
Tears, cold tears, fell drop by drop, landing on the person’s face, on the person’s lips.
Bowing down, cautiously and tenderly, he licked away the tears from the person’s lips.
This person’s life didn’t need this kind of taste.
Salty, bitter, a taste that lingered deep in his bones.
Caressing the person’s cold cheek, tears streamed down the man’s face one after another. With great effort, he moved his lips and said, “Take your time, soon I’ll be there…”
To be there with you.
…
Yan Jingze disappeared. In the blink of an eye, carrying Wen Yichuan’s ashes, he vanished before everyone’s eyes. After Jiang Junhao woke up, he frantically searched for him, but to no avail.
No one knew where this man had gone, whether he was alive or dead.

Jiang Junhao was eventually forcibly transferred to an out-of-province military unit by his father. On the day he was to leave, he knelt in front of the cold tombstone for a long time. Finally, he carefully gathered a handful of soil, wrapped it up, and turned to leave. From start to finish, he remained silent, not at all like the cheerful and upright Police Officer Jiang that everyone used to know.

With his wife seriously ill and his son missing, Wen Qingzhuang, who had been single-handedly supporting the company as its central figure, no longer had the demeanor he once possessed. His usually upright posture seemed to have slouched overnight, and he appeared to have aged by more than ten years.
During a visit to the hospital, as he walked through the corridor, he happened to hear those familiar shouts.
“Don’t call me mommy, get out of here! Get out!”
“Don’t steal my child, Wen Yichuan, I’ll strangle you! I’ll strangle you, you bastard!”
The voices were sharp and piercing.
Although everyone heard such voices almost every day and knew that the woman had gone insane, the nursing assistant patrolling the hallway couldn’t help but frown with disgust.
“This woman deserves her son to go missing. Her own son is precious, while others’ are just expendable. Emotional abuse is even more tormenting than physical abuse. Moreover, after 23 years of abusing others, this is too light of a punishment. She’s lucky to have gone insane.”
“That’s right. I used to regard male god Wen as my idol but I never thought he had been living like this all these years. This woman is really not human, and the other one either!”
“I heard that the Wen Corporation is about to collapse.”
“Is that so? Then I’ll order a couple of firecrackers online and send them to their company to celebrate.”
“You’re really being cheap. Their company is about to go bankrupt, how can you only buy a couple? Get ten, and the rest of the money will be on me…”
The voices in the corridor gradually faded, and in the safety passage, leaning against the wall, Wen Qingzhuang, who was almost sixty, closed his eyes. He listened to the anguished cries one after another. At that moment, he suddenly recalled past scenes.
When he received an award, his face was devoid of color due to mockery. When he was intentionally ignored, he smiled to find excuses for them. When he was driven out of his home by his wife, his eyes showed the pain of being hurt… As he thought about it, a deeply painful bitterness spread from his chest, and a tear rolled down his weary face.
In the past, they had countless chances to have a perfect, excellent, and obedient son. Yet, that child was utterly ruined by their selfishness.
…
Inside the system space, Gu Weizhou stared resentfully at 001. [Are you sure this wasn’t intentional?]
[It… It was an accident.]
Seeing Gu Weizhou’s clearly skeptical expression, Number 001 was somewhat embarrassed for once. It couldn't exactly say that it got too engrossed in watching the show and forgot to add props, resulting in someone really falling and dying.
Being stared at so persistently made Number 001 a bit uncomfortable. After struggling for a while, it finally gritted its virtual teeth and said, [Alright, tell me, what compensation do you want?]
╮(╯＿╰)╭ Might as well pay you back…
“You owe me a stalk of the immortal-grade Love-Lorn grass.”
This inexplicable phrase almost came out effortlessly from Gu Weizhou’s lips. This reflexive urgency felt like an instinct that emerged from his subconscious.
Desire, a strong desire, an intense longing for this thing.
As soon as the words were spoken, both the person and the system in the system space were stunned.
The immortal-grade Love-Lorn grass is a legendary immortal-grade herb, so rare that even in the highest planes of the three thousand worlds, it’s considered mythical. Within the Jinjiang Universe’s compilation of all plants across the main world, plus the three thousand major worlds and countless minor worlds, this herb can be ranked within the top ten of the top-tier immortal herbs.
According to Number 001’s knowledge, Love Lorn grass had only one effect—erasing memories of love.
As for the immortal grade of Love Lorn grass, the detailed explanations specifically stated that it was an unparalleled immortal herb. If consumed, even the most powerful of immortals would forget a hundred lifetimes of past connections in a single night.
But oddly enough, this nearly legendary, seemingly impossible existence, was suddenly named accurately by Gu Weizhou. This…
[Host… how do you… know about the Love Lorn grass? Even the immortal grade version of it?]
Facing Number 001’s countless puzzled and perplexed questions, a trace of bewilderment flickered in Gu Weizhou’s eyes.
Why?
He didn’t know. Anyway, when the other party asked him what he wanted, he suddenly blurted it out. At that time… at that time… the only thought that flashed through his mind was:
It’s very important. The other party can help him find it, can help him get it. Compared to everything else, it’s irreplaceable.
Irreplaceable? Why is it irreplaceable?
The moment this confusing thought formed in his brain, Gu Weizhou felt as if a massive net from the depths of his soul was rapidly extending outwards. With every inch it spread, it seemed like something long-buried was about to emerge from the deepest part of his heart and be brought to light.
That… was very important.
Extremely, extremely important.
Frowning, Gu Weizhou pressed hard on his temples with both hands. He seemed to be plunged into a whirlwind of memories, where rapid, blurry memories and unclear remnants flashed by.
Everything around him was unfamiliar, and he had no idea where he was. Yet, oddly enough, his consciousness was acutely aware of where he was, a contradictory sensation as if he had something to say but couldn’t get the words out.
Suppressing this strange feeling, Gu Weizhou’s gaze slowly moved to the area directly in front of him.
In the distance, amidst a thin mist, stood an intricately carved, ancient door that was closed.
An intuition, an intuition that emerged from nowhere.
The answers he sought were hidden there, right behind that door, holding all the answers he ever wanted to know.
As this realization dawned on him, he unconsciously lifted his foot, stepping closer to the door with each step.
With each step, his heartbeat involuntarily quickened. This feeling of trepidation and unease felt like he was about to uncover his deepest secret.
A secret? What secret does he have?
Finally, his steps stopped in front of the heavy door. Raising his hand, he took a deep breath, and with great effort, he pushed open the tightly sealed door in the sea of consciousness.
What exactly was this secret…?
In the system space, Number 001 had been frowning in seriousness when Gu Weizhou suddenly opened his eyes and exclaimed, [Damn it!]
[Ah? What’s wrong?] Number 001 was taken aback, not quite understanding.
Seeing that Number 001 clearly didn’t catch on, Gu Weizhou coughed twice and said, [It’s nothing, it’s nothing. If you want to compensate me, how about giving me a world full of love that makes me feel refreshed all over?]
[…]
After being silent for three seconds. [I’ll send you to the next world.]
[Hehehe, remember, I said I want a world full of love where I can feel refreshed all over.]
Impatient Number 001, [….Shut up!]
Teleportation initiated—
…
Deep within, behind the ancient door closed by the master, a room was filled with dazzling gold, radiating an eye-catching brilliance. The brilliant golden color was enough to blind countless titanium-alloyed eyes.
Gold, it was all gold, an endless expanse of gold.
[The value of the immortal grade love lorn grass = the gold obtained from selling it = being super rich.]
And as the consciousness gap gradually descended into a silent quiet, the boundless brilliance of that scene suddenly dissipated like a mirage. Layer by layer, the opulent colors faded away, revealing the true reality that had been concealed.
Patterns of rippling water and illusory images floated against the backdrop of the vast universe.
They varied in size, some complete and some fragmented, but regardless of their form, one thing remained the same: all the images were extremely blurry.
Looking around, one could only clearly discern the general outlines of figures and structures.
At the very center of these countless shadowy ripples stood a chilling sword, radiating a cold luminescence, standing tall like an ancient general guarding the place.
The sword was about seven feet long, chilling to the touch. It hovered silently in the air, surrounded by a silver-white aura.
Every second, it emitted a silvery shimmer, sending out waves of silver light from its body. The aura detached from the sword and spread into the surrounding illusory images.
Then, something astonishing happened.
I didn’t quite understand the last part…..
HAH! JUST TEN? BUY THE WHOLE SHOP, THE MONEY’S ON ME!!
Agreed with upstairs. This was far too light of a punishment to the Wen family.
Can’t wait for the next world! 10/10 TFTC
IKR. HOPE THEY SPEND THEIR WHOLE LIFE THAT WAY.
yaaa! I think roughly 2 worlds r left + there might be like a real world scenario maybe….so ig 3 more worlds left and this will be over 😔
Yes, you can say it was light!! Because Gu Weizhou wanted to do something else but eventually he has to die because of 001’s mistake!! Anyways look forward to the next arc… It’s an historical one.
This kinda gives me vibes of “After Transmigrating Through Ten Worlds” mixed with secret past lives influencing the present. I’m curious though. Are all of the MLs in the worlds GWZ visits the same exact person or are they different?
I read this novel a long time ago… so I don’t remember clearly, but most likely the Gong was the same person.
OMGGG THANK YOUUU😭😭SORRY I AM JUST TOO STOOPIDD ALL THOSE VOCABULARY WERE JUST SO MASSIVE FOR MY BRAIN ND ALL THOSE INFO! So sorryyy!! and thank you for writing such a big explanation for mee~🥹🥹💗💗 No doubts left!🥹🥹❤️🔥❤️🔥and dw your explanations were clear it’s just I am a bit slow teehee🥺 Thankkk youuuu<33
(-_-) This is in perfect sync with my preference untill the hints were showed that the mc was originally in love with someone(maybe the main gong). My perfect gong abuser and emotionless mc turned out to be amnesiac. He’s not entirely cold blooded then*sigh*.
