《My Life or Your Memory》Chapter 4: Compensation
Advertisement
Merasakan bahwa yang lain sedang terburu-buru untuk pergi, Han Qingshan menghela napas dalam-dalam. Mereka berlomba di jalanan seperti biasa, tetapi siapa yang bisa berharap bahwa hal seperti ini akan terjadi?
Ketika dia menatap pemuda yang baru saja dia pukul dengan mobilnya, dia merasa agak bersalah, terutama karena dia telah melihat bagaimana orang ini telah melemparkan semua peringatan ke angin untuk menyelamatkan orang asing.
Han Qingshan agak ingin tahu tentang orang seperti ini. Dia tumbuh dalam keluarga yang sangat mencintai, tetapi terlepas dari anggota keluarganya, semua orang yang dekat dengannya melakukannya karena dia adalah pewaris Han Corporation dan semua aset mereka.
Dia selalu percaya bahwa tidak ada yang akan melakukan sesuatu tanpa keuntungan pribadi kecuali mereka adalah keluarga, tetapi sekarang dia melihat sesuatu yang mengejutkannya dan pandangannya tentang dunia ini. Dia tidak bisa membantu tetapi sedikit ingin tahu tentang orang aneh ini.
Tapi sekarang bukan saatnya baginya untuk bersosialisasi dengan orang yang tidak diketahui asalnya. Dia telah berjanji kepada teman-temannya untuk pergi ke padang kuda bersama mereka, dan banyak dari mereka telah membawa kekasih sementara mereka. Bahkan beberapa sosialita akan hadir di pertemuan itu.
Sambil mendesah, dia mengeluarkan dompetnya dan mulai menulis cek, yang kemudian dia berikan untuk diberikan kepada Jiang Yingyue.
"Aku minta maaf karena menabrakmu," katanya dengan perilaku yang baik. "Aku tidak pernah mengharapkan hal seperti itu terjadi; ini adalah tanda permintaan maafku. Terimalah, dan tolong pergi ke rumah sakit untuk diperiksa."
Jiang Yingyue, yang telah memastikan bahwa gadis muda itu tidak mengalami cedera atau trauma karena hampir ditabrak dan didorong ke trotoar, berbalik untuk melihat Tuan Muda Shan ini.
Mata indahnya berubah dingin, dan meskipun dia memelototinya, Han Qingshan merasakan sensasi kesemutan aneh di tubuhnya. Dia bahkan berpikir bahwa pria muda itu terlihat agak lucu dalam perilakunya.
"Aku tidak butuh kompensasi kamu!" Jiang Yingyue berkata dengan singkat. "Meskipun aku mungkin bukan tuan muda yang kaya sepertimu, aku tahu bahwa hidup ini berharga bahkan untuk orang-orang termiskin. Untuk berlomba menyusuri jalan yang begitu sempit ... memiliki akal sehat!"

Han Qingshan belum pernah diajak bicara seperti ini sebelumnya. Dia cukup terkejut ketika mendengar kata-katanya yang keras, tetapi dia tidak bisa mengatakan apa-apa sebagai balasannya. Dia telah berlomba di tempat yang tidak dimaksudkan untuk balap, dan dia hampir mengambil kehidupan dalam proses.
Dengan pandangan terakhir ke arah tuan muda, yang semuanya tampak terpana pada Jiang Yingyue, dan kemudian satu kata terakhir untuk gadis kecil itu, dia berbalik dan berjalan pergi, sosoknya menghilang ke kerumunan hanya dalam beberapa detik.
"Tuan Muda Shan, jangan khawatir tentang itu," kata seorang pemuda saat dia berjalan dan meletakkan tangannya di bahu Han Qingshan. "Itu hanya omong kosong biasa. Meskipun dia mengenakan seragam sekolah dari SMA Riluo, tidak mungkin dia berasal dari salah satu keluarga bangsawan.
"Jika dia adalah warisan bangsawan, dia akan dijemput oleh mobil, dan tidak akan berjalan di jalanan dengan kakinya sendiri. Jelas bahwa dia harus menjadi siswa beasiswa yang memiliki nilai bagus dan pandangan cerdas tentang Dunia.
"Untuk berpikir bahwa dia bahkan berani memarahi dan menegur Tuan Muda Shan, dia jelas tidak tahu apa-apa tentang kelas atas, paling-paling dia hanya mendengar tentang keluarga kerajaan."
Han Qingshan menganggukkan kepalanya dengan linglung. Dia terpana bahwa seseorang benar-benar berani mengangkat suara mereka melawannya dan berbicara tanpa mencoba menyanjungnya. Ketertarikannya pada pemuda ini tampaknya semakin dalam.
"Ayo kita pergi," kata Han Qingshan saat dia kembali ke Porsche hitamnya. Setelah masuk ke dalam mobil, ia mengangkat telepon dan menelepon.
Tidak ada seorang pun di luar mobil yang bisa melihat apa yang dia lakukan, mereka juga tidak bisa mendengar percakapan antara dia dan penerima di sisi lain panggilan telepon.
"Aku ingin kamu memberiku informasi tentang seseorang," katanya dengan suara rendah. Senyum menggantung di wajahnya dan matanya bersinar dengan minat.
"Siapa?" Suara di sisi lain telepon itu tidak menyanjung; dingin dan terdengar sedikit tidak berperasaan.

"Seorang pemuda. Aku baru saja menabraknya dengan mobilku. Dia berasal dari Riluo High. Tingginya sekitar seratus tujuh puluh lima sentimeter dan sangat tampan. Aku tidak mendapatkan namanya atau tahu apa pun tentangnya. Aku akan punya mengandalkan Anda untuk mendapatkan saya informasi. "
"Apakah dia penyok mobilmu?" Suara itu tidak lagi terdengar sedingin sebelumnya, melainkan terdengar agak geli. "Apakah dia entah bagaimana menyinggung perasaanmu, dan kamu tidak bisa mengambil tindakan di depan umum, jadi kamu ingin aku melakukannya untukmu? Haruskah aku menghapusnya dari muka bumi atau hanya memukulinya?"
"Tidak ada yang seperti itu," Han Qingshan tampaknya tidak terganggu dengan saran yang diajukan suara dingin itu; di sisi lain, dia tersenyum. "Aku tertarik padanya. Dia tampak berbeda dari orang lain yang pernah aku temui."
"Apakah kamu menjadi manusia, peduli dengan orang lain?" Suara dingin masih geli, tapi kata-kata membuat merinding muncul di seluruh tubuh Han Qingshan. "Aku selalu menjadi manusia!" dia membantah dengan nada kesal. "Aku hanya ingin tahu tentang pemuda ini. Aku ingin melihat apakah aku bisa lebih memahami dunia dengan berbicara dengannya."
"Aku akan memeriksanya." Suara itu sekali lagi benar-benar dingin dan terpisah. Tidak ada lagi kehangatan, dan panggilan terputus segera setelah kalimat terakhir diucapkan.
Han Qingshan menyeringai ketika dia berpikir tentang bagaimana anak laki-laki kecil ini tampak begitu bermusuhan sebelumnya, tetapi pada kenyataannya, permusuhan lebih terasa seperti kucing lucu yang mengacungkan cakarnya, seperti seseorang yang bisa menyebabkan sedikit goresan tetapi tidak ada kerusakan serius.

Slave 53: The Phoenix
Azgarth is a violent Warlord from a planet where everyone feared him, a man that never lost a battle whether it be from his enemies surrendering or dying. After entering a wormhole, this once infamous man had his memory completely wiped. He was enslaved under the name 53. The great comet arrived one day and gave 53 an extremely rare animal aspect, the Phoenix. Having a rare animal aspect puts people on the fast track to power in this world. Will 53 show the same brutality as his former self? Author: So there will probably be a lot of changes when I start hashing out the whole classes and what not. I'm not planning on this to have statuses or anything like that, but when people 'lvl up' is probably going to be something like ascending 1, 2, 3, etc. With each ascension they are many times stronger, for example, someone who hasn't ascend at all would be at 0, but someone with a 1 would be about 5x stronger than someone who is 0 and so on. It would take a long time to reach each one. With the red colored marks which represents fire, I have a couple ideas with what I want to do, in a way a battle royale, as this continent they are on isn't very large, but all four elements are on it (or more, I might add light, dark, and some others) but all the humans have red, while a different alien race has blue (water), brown (earth), and grey (Air). The color of the mark they have influences how they feel about each other, a example of that would be if a red saw a brown, then they would naturally feel a disgust about each other, and if they killed someone from a different color they would gain way more life essence which is needed to ascend than they would killing someone from their same color. The last thing, I'm not too sure about the main character yet, as I like the whole idea of a memory wipe, I almost think it'd be more entertaining to have the guy slowly regain all his memory, then just becoming his normal self again. If that's the case I'll have to change the title of book. The original idea was this guy would keep the name 53, and his prior self named Azgarth is sharing his body, as in he can talk to him and give him advice on things since he doesn't want him to die since he is sorta like a split personality sharing the same body. Looking at it now, idk if I want this guy to be named 53 forever. Warning: A lot of dark content in the book, especially in the flashbacks.

Currently, I have it up over on Fanficiton.net and Spacebattles but as I saw this site allows fanfiction, and I use this site a lot, I decided to start posting it here as well. Feel free to enjoy it or hate it, I'm just writing to have some fun. If you're wanting to read it on either of those two sites I have the same name on both.
