He did not know how long, but Meng Yu finally woke up. He can feel himself currently lying on a cold hard ground.

He did not know how long has it been when he had such a peace of mind when sleeping. This sleep was really so comfortable.

Then he felt someone kick his foot, but he did not open his eyes. He was too tired, not only was he physically exhausted, but more so mentally fatigued. He just wants to sleep right now.

"Young master Tian, he will not die right?

At this time, an ear-piercing sound rang out.

"No, I did not exert any force, he fell by himself. This trash cannot even take a single hit of mine?"

Another frivolous voice sounded out.

"Young master Tian, look, his head is bleeding."

Zhou Kai said with pale face.

"Nevermind, quick, let"s go." Tian Lin also somewhat unnaturally pulled Zhou Kai and hurriedly left.

It is not because they are afraid to kill people and provoke trouble, their Tian family fully controlled the power of the town of Pan Xi, but because to kill such a waste was not even something worth mentioning.

But they are just youths and suddenly finding themselves to kill people, they were still not capable on taking a life.

"Can they not let the dead sleep for a bit?" Meng Yu somewhat thought furiously.

He can feel the touch of the cold ground. Meng Yu was still lying in there. Right now, he does not want to do anything. On the contrary, he spread his arms wide open, and slumped his body in the ground, and comfortably continued to sleep.

He does not know how long, but when he was about to fall asleep again, a burst of urgent footsteps came running over Meng Yu"s direction,

"Young master."

"Young master are you alright? " Seeing the blood on the Meng Yu"s head, the woman that arrived suddenly exclaimed.

Meng Yu felt himself being held up and hurriedly carried on to a direction.

From the sense of touch in his arm, Meng Yu knew that this should be a woman.

"But mother, with your thin and weak body, how can you hold yourself up? Isn"t that guy also called young master?"

Meng Yu hesitated and opened his eyes.

One was dressed in an old, linen and a face of a woman filled with anxiousness appeared before his eyes.

Meng Yu quivered and hurriedly jumped down from the woman"s seat of honor.

"You…."

Meng Yu was preparing to ask "Who are you?", when suddenly, numerous ma.s.sive memory fragments appeared in his brain.

"Ahhhh…" Meng Yu could not help but clench his head as he groaned in agony and pain.

The woman seeing Meng Yu"s agonizing appearance, coupled with the blood on his head, suddenly became even more worried. Originally, there was not a bit of color on his face, now it suddenly became a bit more white.

Not healthy white, but a morbid state of paleness.

"Young master, are you alright?" The woman anxiously cried out. Imagine yourself that for years, you are mutually dependent on the Young Master for life. At this moment, of course you can not help but feel sadness welling up.

"I"m all right." Meng Yu suddenly recovered himself then somewhat absentmindedly said.

"Young master, let"s quickly go back, I will help you examine your wounds." The woman worriedly said.

She did not wait for Meng Yu to resist, she tightened her hold on Meng Yu and trudged home.
On the way, Meng Yu was also clear what happened in the end. Just now he had a headache, because the moment he saw that woman, his mind suddenly flashed countless images.

Looking at the woman before his eyes, she has a height of only around five feet, Meng Yu had to accept the fact that he had pa.s.sed through another world.

He also possessed the body of this youth also called Meng Yu, and this woman in front of him that is in someway has her life totally dependent on him, was his Aunt Mei.

Meng Yu is sixteen years old and attends cla.s.s in the only magic academy in town. Because he had not become a magic apprentice, he became the whole academy"s object of ridicule.

The two people who had bullied him just now was called Tian Lin and Zhou Kai. Tian Lin was the second young master of Pan Xi town"s largest family, the Tian family. Zhou Kai was his little attendant.

A magician"s body is originally weak, poor little Meng Yu was being shoved by them and fell to the ground after being hit by a stone on his head.

Back at home, Aunt Mei carefully washed the blood stains off Meng Yu"s head, and actually even found out that there was no wound at all.

Although surprised, Aunt Mei was also relieved, anyway, the young master was just fine.

Not a moment later, Aunt Mei brought a bowl of steaming hot rice to his side, there was also a small bowl of pickled vegetables placed in front of Meng Yu.

"Young master, quickly eat it, it"s been so long, young master must be so hungry." Aunt Mei said happily, in her heart, there was nothing better than the young master"s safety that is worthy of her happiness.

Meng Yu at this time was still immersed in the series of events that just happened, he could not have returned to the heavens.

Aunt Mei seeing Meng Yu"s dazed look, walked up, and sat next to Meng Yu, gently hugged him, then said, "Young master, quickly eat your meal, your rice will get cold."

"We are not good slaves, we did not protect the young master and let the young master be hurt," Aunt Mei said with some self-blame.

Meng Yu was awakened by Aunt Mei"s movements. This time, Meng Yu did not push away Aunt Mei"s arms, he suddenly felt Aunt Mei"s feeble arms that was embracing him, it gave him an unprecedented sense of safety.

He does not know if this feeling belongs to little Meng Yu, or his own feelings.

But in any case, this feeling was really good, it makes people feel at ease.

Meng Yu raised the white rice, and began to eat the pickled vegetables. Because he was a child of a poverty stricken family, this white rice and pickled vegetables was simply too delicious.

"Aunt Mei, why don"t you eat too?" While eating, Meng Yu did not forget to ask the question.

"I have already eaten, this is specially prepared for the young master." Aunt Mei said with a smile.

Having not eaten for a long time, Meng Yu was indeed really hungry, and the bowl of rice was sent to his stomach in no time.

Holding the empty bowl, he looked at the smiling Aunt Mei at his side watching him eat.

Aunt Mei stared blankly at him for a moment, then there appeared a rare faint blush on her face.

"Young master, that…." Aunt Mei was somewhat embarra.s.sed as she said in a self-blame manner.

Meng Yu suddenly remembered a story that he had heard a lot of times, then when he looked at Aunt Mei"s pale face, he felt his mind being hit by a heavy hammer..

He lowered down the bowl of rice and heavily hugged Aunt Mei. Because of their height disparity, he looked like a brat that was spoiled by his mother.

"Aunt Mei, I am full." Tears were dripping down Meng Yu"s eyes.

Looking at this thin woman that was like a mother, Meng Yu"s heart suddenly gave birth to endless pity. At this point he had completely converged himself to little Meng Yu"s memories, Unknowingly, he was also influenced by some of these, but he really does not mind.

He suddenly somewhat realized why he did not die. The heavens let him live and give him another chance.

Meng Yu"s tears filled his eyes, he was confused to go, but was only a piece of clear, pure, bright light left.

"Father and mother, in this life, I will do my utmost best and become your pride." These words appeared in Meng Yu"s mind.

Then he looked at Aunt Mei"s eyes, and firmly said, "Aunt Mei, in the future, let me protect you instead."
