4033 The Other Side 2

"I had my first communication with him when I was six."

"Communication?"

The boy nodded. "It's not the kind of face-to-face communication you imagine. It's a very, very vague communication of consciousness."

"What's it like?"

"Mmm. When I'm asleep, I dream about him and see the world he's in. Actually, the world he's in, is not different from mine. He lives in a house with the exact same furnishings as mine. It's just that, for some reason, it's always dark outside the window and the clouds are dense. I've never seen sunlight in his world." The boy paused, suddenly serious. "That's when I began to suspect I had a second personality. I've read some related information."

Little Yichen frowned. "I've noticed how different you could be. You were always innocent and cute around Mommy, but completely different around me or Daddy, or Li Hanlin. Was that you, too?"

Youyou closed his eyes for a moment, then answered truthfully. "That wasn't me."

"Eh?" Little Yichen suddenly muttered, "Then… it wasn't you too, when you were always cold around me?"

"Sometimes it was me."

"Were you the one with the sharp tongue?"

"Sometimes yes, sometimes no."

"In other words…" Little Yichen suddenly felt a dull ache in his heart and he clutched his chest. Whether it was the Youyou of the first personality or the second… Both despised him? TT TT

It stung.

Youyou laughed and stroked his head. "Because by the time I met you, I could no longer restrain him. In fact, I felt that he was a very talented personality."

"How so?"

"In the business world, he was an absolute genius. Initially, I was the one who designed the toys. For me, it was purely an interest. But one time, he escaped. He looked at my drawings, and handed them over to a company. I didn't even know about it. I think he had the ability to escape long ago, only that I wasn't able to interfere with his memories, so I didn't have access to the memories of when he was in this body. I simply assumed he had never come out."

Little Yichen listened in stunned silence. "In other words, whatever you did or the memories that happened when you were in this body, he wouldn't know, right?"

"Uh huh."

"And you wouldn't know what happened when he occupied this body either."

"I wouldn't know. However, it might be because I'm the primary personality, I'd have a vague idea if something had happened that caused some special fluctuating emotions."

Little Yichen frowned, gathering his thoughts. "I see. He's the one who created the glories of Lezhi Holdings and proposed Project Deva Eye, wasn't he?"

"Uh huh." Youyou nodded. "He and I alternate sometimes. Swaps happen very quickly. Maybe in the blink of an eye, he and I would have switched places. That's why my memory fragments have gaps in them."

"What kind of gaps?"

Youyou tried to recall and then said, "I remember one time, I was going to school. I clearly remember going out in the morning, but when I opened my eyes, Mommy was standing in front of me. When I looked at the horizon, it was already dusk."

"What do you mean?" The boy was creeped out.
