Chapter 793: Chapter 13 CC’s Vow (Added for Alliance Leader Feixue Xiao!)_2 Chapter 793: Chapter 13 CC’s Vow (Added for Alliance Leader Feixue Xiao!)_2 After Lin Xian’s grandmother passed away, he missed her dearly.
His father often told him that he would see her in his dreams, and she would still be as kind and gentle as ever…
Despite her reluctance to spend money on herself, she would always laugh heartily and pull out a few “big bills” from her rolled-up handkerchief whenever she saw young Lin Xian:
“Dear grandson, go buy some snacks, buy plenty.”
But these were the scenes that Lin Xian’s father dreamed of…
As a child, Lin Xian also longed to dream of his grandmother.
Even if he could only see her once, he had many unspoken words he wanted to share with her, wanted to hug her once again.
However, what everyone else seemed capable of, he could not achieve.
Every time he drifted into sleep punctually, he found himself in the unchanging square of The First Dreamland, amidst the battling Ultra Brothers, the noisy cicadas, the day-in-day-out broadcasts, and the immutable crowd.
Many people.
They could see the deceased, the ones they missed, in their dreams.
Lin Xian didn’t possess this “superpower.”
Just like those he left behind – Tang Xin, Huang Que, Chu Anqing…
If only he could dream of them, at least he could say thank you, at least he could apologize.

Even though the present CC looked like a copy-and-paste of Chu Anqing, he deeply understood that the two were not the same person, not at all the same.
CC suddenly stopped walking, turned around, and looked at Lin Xian:
“You seem unusually quiet today.”
Lin Xian lifted his head:
“Wasn’t I always like this?”
CC shook her head:
“In my memory fragments of you, you were always lively, boisterous, sometimes even annoyingly pretentious, never settling down.”
“But now…
you’re too silent, it’s making me uncomfortable, you seem like a different person.”
Lin Xian chuckled lightly, his tone somewhat helpless:
“After all, a lot has happened.”
The last time he met CC was before the arrival of the Third Dreamland, around May 2023, Lin Xian vaguely remembered.
Then the Rhein Company was established.
He entered the Third Dreamland, the Fourth Dreamland, and never saw CC again.
Until today.
A year had just passed.
In this year, whether in dreamlands or reality, so many things happened, witnessing so many farewells.
Lin Xian admitted.
He indeed couldn’t be as “boisterous” as before.
Not to mention…
At least, he should save Chu Anqing, right?

He had promised her, he would always find her, that he would never lose his way;
He also promised Chu Shanhe, that he would find his daughter and bring her home.
Alas.
Pretty words weren’t enough, he needed to do something substantial.
But currently, the clues about the Millennium Stakes were completely stuck, and the only breakthrough…
probably stood right before him, CC, also a part of the Millennium Stakes.
“I have had many friends leave me.”
Lin Xian walked and said:
“And there was a girl, exactly your age.”
“Your girlfriend?”
Click!
CC chopped through a vine in the way and stepped over:
“Usually, it’s only a sibling or a girlfriend whose death hits you so hard.”
Lin Xian looked at CC:
“She looked exactly like you.”
“That’s the oldest pick-up line I’ve ever heard”
CC was speechless:
“Can I take back my sympathy for you just now?”
Lin Xian quickly stepped over the vine:
“You already made that joke two years ago, it just wasn’t in your memory fragments.
Believe it or not, she jumped from a plane 20,000 meters high to help me obtain something very precious.”
“Oh.”
CC exclaimed calmly:
“She was really brave.
I read a book in one of my memory fragments, saying that only a lost love is true love.
Now that she has died in front of you…
you probably won’t forget her for the rest of your life.”
“Jumping from 20,000 meters…
they probably couldn’t even find the body, right?”
Lin Xian shook his head:
“She had just jumped from the plane when I immediately followed her, caught her hand in midair, deployed the parachute, and brought her down…
but also didn’t save her, she still disappeared.”
CC stopped in her tracks.
Turned around.
She looked at Lin Xian skeptically.
She tried to discern from Lin Xian’s expression and eyes whether this was just a joke, a skit to lighten the mood.
But she found…
His expression was serious.
It was sad.
It was genuine.
Click!
She turned her head and fiercely chopped through several vines, snorting:
“Hmph.”
Continued walking:
“Daring to jump from the plane without hesitation…”
“[You are indeed a man.]”
CC also dismissed the prejudice she had formed against Lin Xian due to Wei Shengjin.
It seemed.
She hadn’t misjudged this man.
It was no wonder the emotions in her memory fragments about this man were a bit turbulent:
“I don’t think you have anything to feel guilty about.”
CC quickened her pace, her voice carrying softly:
“From the moment you followed her and jumped out of the plane, you were blameless.
Whether you ended up saving her or not…
it’s not important anymore, you had the courage to jump from 20,000 meters; that proves everything.”
“Regardless of the emotions between you, or the promises made, no one can speak ill of you, no one can say you didn’t do enough.”
Lin Xian chuckled softly.
Shook his head:
“Her father said the same, but after all she’s gone, nothing could be done to change that outcome.”
“I don’t think so.”
CC turned around, looking at Lin Xian, who was just a step away.
