Chapter 4017: A Perfect Match (213)

And it turned out, Gong Shaoying’s actions were indeed effective. Youyou’s physical condition improved. The function of the heart had also increased more than five times. At least he wasn’t as weak as he used to be. However, Gong Shaoying didn’t tell anyone about this.
It was fine if others misunderstood him. But Yun Shishi had to know this. There was still a selfish part of him that wanted to make it clear to her that he meant well. At least, for that matter, even if she would not forgive him, he might not have to suffer the fate of a complete severance. This was already considered a prayer answered!
Gong Shaoying was a proud man. He had been flying high all his life and was insufferably arrogant. But now, before Yun Shishi, he was humble for the first time.
Perhaps it was because she looked so much like Mu Qingcheng. When he looked at his daughter, it was like seeing the woman he had once loved so deeply, through his daughter’s soul. It turned his heart into mush. He poured all his guilt and his love for Mu Qingcheng into her, hoping to make up for his regrets and mistakes. It was not a choice of his whether she appreciated it or not. Only, he hoped, even if only because out of pity for him, that she would not be so resolute.
“Don’t go thinking I’m her, trying to brush me off with words like that.” Yun Shishi bristled. “The boy can’t go back to the way he was. This is all thanks to you! Gong Shaoying, what is your heart made of? Ice? You’ve dragged my mother through misery all her life. Will you be satisfied only when you’ve turned my world upside down too?”
Gong Shaoying shook his head, but he could only shake his head. He had no way to explain himself.
“Can you think of a way to make him go back to the way he was?” She bit down on her lip hard, clenching her fist in anxiety. She hung on to the hope that Gong Shaoying would have other ways to awaken the former Youyou. She wanted her Youyou back.
Gong Shaoying said indifferently, “He has a split personality. Do you know about this?”
She answered, “I do now. I didn’t know about this before.”
“Because he was too good at hiding it.” Gong Shaoying’s eyes revealed admiration. “This child has always known how to dote on others. He dotes on you and wants to protect you, so he ever only says good things.”
“Is there no way to salvage the situation?”
Gong Shaoying said, “What if I say there is a way?”
Her eyes, initially dull with indifference, seemed to light up at once. “Really?”
“He can go back to the old days when the two personalities lived in the same shell. But that will be painful. The coexistence of two personalities present great hidden dangers. Sooner or later, he’ll be overwhelmed. Because these two personalities are extreme opposites. They’ll never be able to merge or accept each other. They’re destined to clash.”
Yun Shishi was extremely saddened to hear this. The previous Youyou had two personalities at the same time. In her presence, he had always been innocent, well-behaved, kind, and pure. It was only the other side, perhaps, that was colder than she could have imagined.
Was he going back to this?
She couldn’t bear it. She did not want the boy to suffer such pain.
So then…
“Did you say there was another way?” Filled with hope, she asked, “What method is it?”
Gong Shaoying looked up. His once handsome face was now extremely weathered. “The alternative is to awaken the first personality and have that personality kill the second personality, so that the first personality can regain dominance.”
“I thought the boy’s first personality had been killed?”
