Chapter 752 - RW 1.47
"But if he dares to hurt you, then I will be the first one to snatch you from him. I will force myself into your heart and kick him away. Because honestly, my heart is still yours, no matter what, Bai Yunyu."
Yunyu wanted to say that Taewoo shouldn\'t give his heart to him because he didn\'t deserve it. But he knew that you couldn\'t choose which person to fall in love with.
"I… I am in great care, Taewoo. You don\'t need to worry about me," Yunyu said, trying to assure Taewoo that everything was alright, even though he knew that wasn\'t the case at all.
In the end, Taewoo slowly released his grip from Bai Yunyu, and they sat on the sofa silently.
"So, about Kibum…" Yunyu tried to shift the topic to make it less awkward between them.
"He is the real owner of this body, just like in that world. But I am the one who dreams about that, and we didn\'t share our dream. He is currently sleeping right now," Taewoo replied, clearing the doubt in Yunyu\'s heart.
"Ah, I see…."
"He doesn\'t remember about what happened in that world. But his love for you is also as natural as it can be," Taewoo said. "Yunyu, please treat Kibum gently. You know that he is a lot more sensitive than I am, right?"
"I will…" Yunyu nodded. But that was all he could do anyway. He could only treat Kibum gently but not love him romantically.
"He will wake up soon, just say that he fell asleep all of a sudden, but don\'t tell him that I took control of his body, or he would blame himself for losing control again," Taewoo said.
Thus, Taewoo closed his eyes, and after a while, Kibum opened his. He blinked dazedly, and when he saw Yunyu smiling in front of him, he jerked back out of reflex.
"W—What happened?"
"You fell asleep so suddenly. Are you okay?" Yunyu asked.
Kibum was confused. He was scared that Yunyu would meet Taewoo and then call him mentally unstable or simply crazy.
"You—you didn\'t see anything wrong when I fell asleep?"
"Nope, you\'re just sleeping like a dead log for a while," Yunyu lied, just like what Taewoo requested.
Kibum was relieved that Taewoo didn\'t come out when I lost consciousness. But he was still embarrassed in front of Yunyu. He never saw someone that could be so bold about his interest.
"Y—You… don\'t be so aggressive…." Kibum said. "I\'ve never been approached by anyone in my life before."
"Eh? How come? You\'re very handsome and tall," Yunyu asked.
"Because I don\'t like anyone. Just getting close to any of those people already make me disgusted," Kibum replied.
"So, does that mean I have the privilege to get close to you? You don\'t find me disgusting, right?" Yunyu grinned full of mischievousness.
"N—Not at all, you... you can get close to me…." Kibum said.
Yunyu chuckled. Kibum was still as interesting, just like in the 6th world.
"Well, for now, let\'s just start reciting our lines. This is also your first acting gig, right?"
"Yeah…" Kibum replied.
"Then let\'s work together, okay? This is also my very first acting gig, hehe," Yunyu deliberately hid the fact that he had been asked in another web series before he got kicked out because it was embarrassing.

While they were reciting their lines, Long Shen opened the door and smiled when he saw Yunyu and Kibum sitting side by side.
"How is it? All good? You guys can work together just fine?"
"Yes, Long Shen—I mean, Mr. Long Zhen!" Yunyu nodded happily, while Lee Kibum only gave a shy nod once.
Long Shen was happy as he saw Yunyu also look brighter than before. After so many painful things that had happened between them in so many words, Long Shen found himself to be less egoistical about his feeling.
He hurt Yunyu in so many ways. It was already fortunate enough that Yunyu didn\'t hold a grudge against him. Long Shen wanted Yunyu to live a fulfilling life, even if he couldn\'t be the one in Yunyu\'s heart.
That was the least he could do to compensate for the pain he inflicted.
"We will start the first recording tomorrow, and I will introduce all of you to the cast and crew. You guys are going to be the main characters of the story, so do your best."
After a few more talks with Mr. Long Zhen, Lee Kibum excused himself as it was already dusk, and he had to start practising the lines at home. Meanwhile, Yunyu was still inside Long Shen\'s office, leaning on the sofa while sipping on a tea he made.
Long Shen sat beside Yunyu and hugged him. He asked, "Yunyu, may I know if that guy, Lee Kibum, has something to do with you in a world or something?"
"Ehh… what do you mean?"
"It\'s just my theory. Since you have a world with me, does that mean you have a world with other men too?" Long Shen asked. "I was also a transmigrator in the tenth world as Long Zhen the Mafia Boss, remember? So I guessed that you also had relationships with other men."
…
Yunyu gulped. He wasn\'t sure whether he should answer that honestly or just dodge the question. But Long Shen suddenly gave him an assurance, "It\'s fine, Yunyu. I just want to know. I will not be mad at you because I\'m also not good for you. I don\'t deserve you after all I did, and I acknowledge my shortcomings."
"But I also want to know you better, Yunyu…."
…
Bai Yunyu sighed. He nodded and confirmed the suspicion, "I am also a transmigrator, just like you. And I have been entangled with so many men in each world. I know this might sound insincere for me to say, but Long Shen… my love for you is real. I love all the men I ever kissed in each world, and my love is equal for you all."
[Because all of you are parts of the same person, God Han Ye.]
