Transmigration: Save My Chastity

[41] Reminiscing The Past [2]

Maybe, Xiao Tang is reborn just like me.

As the thought came across his mind, Zhang Changming was surprised himself... and sadness engulfed him. Zhan Chen had told him that he was too tired and fell asleep before he came into this world... Or perhaps a second life for him.

Zhan Chen could be dead because of extreme exhaustion. Did he struggle in life after leaving the orphanage?

The thought alone almost choked him and Zhang Changming forced a smile at the younger male, "what did you do after you left the orphanage?"

Zhan Chen then began to tell about his life after that. How he wanted to enter the college but had no money and worked hard to save little money to enter college.

However, even after working three jobs, with his meager salaries, he still didn't manage to save money. Most of his savings went to his rent apartment, electricity, water and food. He also sent some money to the orphanage every month.

Zhang Changming listened to Zhan Chen's story with heavy heart. If only he was able to succeed early maybe this man wouldn't have to work hard. And even if he had managed to get the so-called success, he still couldn't go back to him.

Being diagnosed with a late stage brain cancer, was something that Zhang Changming didn't expect. It was too sudden and unexpected. But, he did leave a will for this man.

Before his death, he had the lawyer wrote a will for him. All his assets was going to be Fu Zhan Chen's. He died at the age of 24 years old. And Zhan Chen should get it right?

"What were your age when you came here?"

"I'm 24." Zhan Chen asked a bit confused. Why would Ming Ge ask his age?

So, it had been a year after his death... Zhan Chen should be living an easy life with the money and company that he left for him. So, why he still worked until he was exhausted?

Zhang Changming frowned. It couldn't be that someone was changing the content of the will?

"Ming Ge?" Seeing the frowning young man, Zhan Chen couldn't help but called out to the man's name.

"Oh, Xiao Tang. What's it?" Zhang Changming glanced up only to feel a warm palm on his forehead. He was surprise.

"En. Not hot. I'm glad you're not sick, Ming Ge," Zhan Chen pulled back his hand and sat down. He then began to stare seriously at the older male.

Being stared like that somehow making Zhang Changming nervous, "Xiao Tang?"

"Ming Ge should take care of yourself more. You've been sick in the previous world and I don't want to see you're sick again," Zhan Chen said as he began to lecture the older male. He himself forgot that Bai Zhan Chen in this world was a sick ger before he transmigrated over to replace him.

Zhang Changming felt warmth in his heart. He was being lectured but it felt like words of love. He knew how much Zhan Chen care for him and it made him happy.

It looked like he was not hopeless.

Maybe, he could be with Zhan Chen in this lifetime.

"Ming Ge, did you hear what I said?"

"En, I did. And don't worry, my new body is as healthy as a horse. And I could even sword fighting for hours without feeling tired." Zhang Changming said with a smiling face.

"That's good! I'll tell Father not to be hard on you!"

"You don't have to do that, Xiao Tang ah..."

If you do that, how could I get stronger to protect you? I need to become stronger and powerful to protect you.

Ah, well even if Zhang Changming was still suspicious about what happened to his will after his death but it was all in their past. It wasn't worth of getting concerned over it. What was most important was the present.

Now.

Seeing the adorable face in front of him, making all his problems fade away. He vowed that in this lifetime, he would protect Zhan Chen and ensured the young ger would never be sad again. He would become the most happy person.

May the God protect this innocent ger and let him be happy always.

"...ing Ge! Ming Ge, you're spacing out again."

"Oh, did I?" Zhang Changming chuckled and ruffled the ger's soft hair. He grinned when he saw the pout and glare being sent his way as the young ger complained that he was ruining his hard-combed hair.

"Okay, okay, let Ming Ge help you tie your hair," Zhang Changming said as he stood and sat behind the young ger. He then without waiting for permission began to braid Zhan Chen's hair into a flower shaped bun. To finish his touch, he put the newly bought hairpin and marvel at his work.

"There you go," Zhang Changming stood and sat back on his seat. "You look beautiful."

Zhan Chen was flabbergasted. Since when did Ming Ge know how to braid and style hair? Especially, this feminine style. He stared at the older male with wonder as his hands felt around his head. "Are you sure that you don't destroy my hair, Ming Ge ah?"

"Hm... You don't trust this Ge's hands? Ah, Ming Ge is so sad, Xiao Tang ah. Why don't you look at the mirror ba?" Zhang Changming said as he pointed to the small mirror on the shelves.

Zhan Chen immediately stood up and walked to the small decorative mirror on the shelves. Upon seeing his hair, he was very surprised. Indeed, as Zhang Changming said, the hairstyle was gorgeous and the new hairpin completed the look. He turned around to stare in wonder at the older male.

Zhan Chen, "Ming Ge, how did you know how to braid hair?"

Zhan Changming coughed to cover the blush on his face. "Well, I grew up with Bai Zhan Chen and he kind of reminded me of you, Zhan Chen. So, yeah, I was quite close to him. And I learned how to braid and tie hair because of him."

Zhan Chen, "Do you miss Bai Zhan Chen, Ming Ge?"

Zhan Changming was silent for a moment before he smiled, "...I would lie if I said I didn't miss him. But, I'm sure what happen now has a reason. Even though, I don't know the reason, I'm sure Bai Zhan Chen is in good hands."

Call me selfish but I prefer you, my Xiao Tang rather than Bai Zhan Chen. Ge is sorry, Xiao Chen* ah...

* = Zhang Changming thought about the original Bai Zhan Chen.
