[BL] Debut on Earth After Retiring as the Healer of Interstellar

Chapter 34: Realizations

He could see the tall buildings lining up with different heights and wide. It looks very busy and full of liveliness from the countless people living. And the nature that surrounds them actually says the opposite. Above from here, he could see the vast and growing trees from all over the place. They grew colored fresh greens with even some flowers on them. They surround the city like a form of protection— secure and safe.

While just standing here, Feng Rouyun could feel the freshness of the wind that’s different from the city. It feels cleaner and whenever he takes a small breath, relief flashes on him, clearing his mind and calming his nerves.

What was more that astonished him was the amount of energy he could see. They were like white mist floating in the air— like the morning mist that welcomes you in the morning and just quietly surrounds the world. They also seem to sparkle with the sun, feeling it more magical and ethereal from here.

This was something that Feng Rouyun never saw in his past life. Their planet was too busy fighting for peace and home. These environments had long been erased by the years of destruction and war. Thus they didn’t realize that the energy from the minerals they dug up originally just came from nature itself— the planet that they’re also calling home.

At this moment, a sense of quietness rises within him. Just standing here and being with nature, he seems to finally understand his existence.

A healer like him exists in that world as the instrument to send nature’s message for them. That they are also helping them protect their home.

They are both the same— wanting to embrace each other and secure from every enemy that destroys them together.

....

Yang Yueran and the other two notice the young man’s silence. Even though he didn’t answer, the way his eyes glued towards what’s in front of him confirms their hypothesis. It is indeed really true.

They also just stood a few steps behind him and looked at nature quietly. For them, this scenario is very common. They had been here many times to unwind and it indeed comforted them. But standing here with the knowledge from Feng Rouyun, it was like overturning the truths and reality they knew.

It’s like saying that the world they live in is not just merely a place but it connects more deeply to them than anyone else.

As the wind brushed on their cheeks, it felt like they were under the young man’s ability. That familiar gentle and soothing energy that caresses the pain on their heads. It clears their thoughts as if letting the struggles inside them stop even for just this moment. Their mind went blank, only feeling as if basking with nature.

To just be silent and a heart that stays at peace.

Yang Yueran took a deep breath and his eyes set on the young man’s back. It still looks fragile and delicate but he seems to be surrounded by such an enormous spirit that never fades. Looking at him standing in the middle of the bright sun, he doesn’t seem to feel the heat. Only the rays of the sunlight was like touching him softly, illuminating his brightness.

Just this small amount of time they spent, he finally figures out something.

Feng Rouyun was not at fault. Like them, he was also just wanting to live a life for himself.

Meanwhile, Gu Weiyi was also staring at Feng Rouyun. All his life, he was surrounded by ’people’ like him so at an early age, he learned that most of the people who wore this kind of personality were just fakes. A bunch of hypocrites who never fail to wear their mask all the time. They seem so genuine but the moment their eyes glint and see your weakness, they won’t waste any time to attack like a snake.

He grew very tired with that and this drove him to carve the path on his own, not what the family wanted him the most. He became someone they don’t want to acknowledge because he wants to prove that the ’thing’ they hate the most will live better than the face they wore.

However the young man in front of him seems different. He looks really weak and obedient but there was something not the same as those people that he only noticed at this moment.

He saw that underneath that frail body was an energy that was full of brightness and clarity. And unlike them, what he’s showing to them was his truest self.

So a question flashes on his mind.

Who is he now to just conclude him without a chance to prove himself? If he’s like this— judging and ruthless, isn’t it just the same as his family?

On the other hand, Chu Xining also fell into deep thoughts.

From last night’s incident, he only heard from Gu Weiyi who called him about their Brother Ran’s decision so he was very angry. He thought that maybe Feng Rouyun used the same method from Sister Ru to Brother Ran so that’s why he changed his mind so quickly.

Didn’t Yang Yueran remember how the company threw out all his effort again just for the sake of Feng Rouyun’s ’adjustment’ to the team? He was more furious than that.

Chu Xining just felt that the company disregarded all the efforts and pleading that they made so they could release something they worked hard for only to cut it off mercilessly. And it was Feng Rouyun who became his outlet.

The pent-up frustration and anger just rushed inside his mind and snapped out last night leading him to even completely disregarding his own life.

As of now that he calmed down, he realizes his foolishness.

From the start they knew Feng Rouyun was scammed and a victim too. Just because he chose to stay and decide to face the evilness of the world doesn’t mean selfishness and greed.

For a moment, his mind flashed on the Chu Xining in the survival show.

That child who was burning with intense passion, only having thoughts of being on the stage. He remembered his arrogance and pride as if what awaits him was something he could take without a second thought.

Then reality splashed him with ice cold water.

After that, he was like a blind man who could only constantly reach his hand and anxiously groping over nothing. Feng Rouyun was the same way but unlike him, he chose to face the world with gentleness and a smile on his face.

And perhaps this way, the goodness inside him will win.
