The passage of time is always the easiest to ignore, and in the blink of an eye, 1998 has arrived.

"Jae-cheol, how are the company's preparations lately?" Lee Kun-hee called Lee Jae-chul to talk to the top floor of the Samsung building.

"For two months, I only found one good seedling, and then I got nothing. The share acquisition has been largely completed, and I am going to start the company later, and the current situation does not allow for the establishment of a company. Lee Jae-chul said lightly.

"Well, that's fine, it's a bit more certain. Lee Kun-hee agreed, "Actually, there is another thing that I called you here today, I am going to send you to the United States to study, where the level of education is much higher than that of South Korea, and it is more beneficial for you to come back after graduating from the United States to start a company." ”

"I was going to go to the United States to finish my university studies, and Vanderbilt University has already approved my application, so I have until May this year. ”

"Yes, I was going to let you go to Harvard to study finance, is this Vanderbilt University very famous?" asked Li Kunxi with a frown.

"It's the same for me at any university, I just signed up based on the number of books I have, and Vanderbilt University has the largest collection of books in the country. Lee replied, "In a week's time, I will depart, not directly to the United States, but also to report to Vanderbilt after passing through China and Italy." And if nothing else, I'll be doing some entertainment in the United States, and now that South Korea has a very clear admiration for beauty, once I make a name for myself in the United States and then return to my country to join the company, then the prestige and image of the company will instantly reach a terrible level, which is much faster than slow development. ”

"What are you going to do with the company?" said Lee Kun-hee.

"I will entrust a person to set up the company around 00, and I will hide behind the scenes as the actual controller. Lee Jae-chul said.

Lee Kun-hee pondered for a long time and said, "I agree with your plan, I don't know about Hallyu and the entertainment industry, I hope you won't let me down." ”

"Of course. Lee Jae-cheol's eyes flashed with a strange light.

"Why go to China and Italy?"

"There's something very important there, for me. ”

After the conversation, Lee Jae-cheol left the company, first went to China and then to Italy for a very simple reason, about half a month ago, his dream ushered in the end, twelve years Lee Jae-cheol has experienced more than 80 dreams, these dreams are like a short film, although there is a lot of knowledge and philosophy in it, but in general it is incomplete. And in the last dream, a voice told him one thing, in the three locations of Taibai Mountain and Kunlun Mountain in China, and Florence in Italy, there were secrets about Lee Jae-cheol and the dream. If you get the medium hidden in these three places, you can get the answer.

"Wuli is in Zhe, you must be careful on the road, you are not familiar with life, but don't go wrong. Hong Luoxi looked worried, and his eyes were a little wet, "Why don't you go alone, let your father bring you some people, so that your mother can rest assured." ”

"It's okay, Mom, don't you know who I am? I'm a genius. Lee Jae-chul smiled and said to Hong Luo.

"Hmph, narcissistic. Li Yunxin on the side muttered, saying so, but there were obvious tears in her eyes.

Li Zaizhe pinched his sister's face, and Li Yunxin shook her head, "If you and your mother want me, you can go to the United States to see me, and I will report to school in May at most." ”

"You must be careful on the road, don't provoke others, and go to the United States as soon as you finish your errands. The worry about her brother suppressed the anger in her heart about Lee Jae-cheol's departure from South Korea, and Lee Yoon-hin couldn't help but stare into her brother's eyes and admonish.

"Got it. Lee Jae-chul took a deep look at his sister, and he found that there was a kind of light hidden in Lee Yoon-xin's eyes, just like the emotions contained in the eyes of the two daughters when he said goodbye to Kim Tae-hee and Kim Hyun-joo a few days ago, but this emotion of Lee Yoon-hin was more hidden and obscure.

Thinking of this, Lee Jae-cheol's mind came to mind what happened when he said goodbye to a friend.

When he told Kim Tae-hee and Kim Hyun-joo about his trip to the United States, the expressions of the two were almost the same, first reluctant, and then began to tell him the details of his life, and when he told them that he would enter the entertainment industry in the future and become a star, Kim Tae-hee was silent for a moment and then smiled: "Not a bad ideal, come on." Then he asked, "Do you think I can be a star?"

It is undeniable that Kim Tae-hee's appearance is almost impeccable, and he has an aura on his body, which is very suitable for being an actor. So Lee Jae-chul gave her a positive answer.

And Kim Hyun-joo was more complicated, after giving Lee Jae-chul encouragement, she looked at the school and began to be in a daze, and finally when Lee Jae-chul was about to leave, she grabbed Lee Jae-cheol, and when Lee Jae-chul asked her what else was going on, Kim Hyun-joo showed a complicated emotion in her eyes, biting her lip and asking him, "Will you forget me?"

Lee Jae-chul was stunned for a moment, then smiled and took Kim Hyun-joo's hand and said, "No, you will always be my friend." ”

"Friend......" Kim Hyun-joo muttered.

Then Lee Jae-chul left and returned home to prepare for various matters.

Both of them are his friends, and at that time, the two girls had an emotion to express, which Lee Jae-cheol also experienced in Jun Ji-hyun, and it was called "like"

The goodbye to Jun Ji-hyun is even simpler, the girl tells him to take care of himself, and then tells Lee Jae-chul not to forget his promise, and Lee Jae-chul has signed Jun Ji-hyun with the CDE agency in which he has a stake, and will help Jun Ji-hyun participate in the work after three years.

A female voice prompting the boarding and check-in came from his ears, and Lee Jae-chul said goodbye to his mother and sister, "Okay, I'm leaving, I really want to go to the United States to see me or call me back." ”

"Got it, be careful. Hong Luoxi held back her tears, and Li Yunxin was already crying.

"Don't forget Nuna, think about me all the time!"

This lovely Nuna, Li Zaizhe's heart warmed, and he replied: "I will miss you every day." ”

With a wave of his hand, Lee Jae-chul joined the crowd of ticket checkers.

Riding on the flight to Huaxia JL, Lee Jae-cheol was a little excited, he was about to uncover the secrets of his life and dreams that had plagued him for 12 years!

Cathedral of the Hundred Flowers

Lee Jae-chul slowly opened his eyes, and his heart was full of emotion.

"What you just saw is true. A voice came from behind. Lee Jae-chul hurriedly turned around, and then he was stunned.

A man who looked exactly like him was standing not far in front, with a faint glow all over his body, smiling at him.

"Who are you?" Lee Jae-chul said nervously, no one else should know about this place, how did he get in?

The man looked at him silently, and after a moment said, "Do you believe in fate?"

"Believe. Lee Jae-chul replied. He was now tense and ready to respond to the man's attack.

"Since you believe, then I am fate. The man said, seeing Li Zaizhe's nervousness, he said: "Don't do this, I won't hurt you, I am fate, and I am also a mountain, a water, a dust, everything in this world, and of course, you too." Will you hurt yourself?"

After listening to the man's words, Lee Jae-chul had to believe him, this person could enter the secret room quietly, if he wanted to kill him, he could have done it a long time ago, why wait until now, and he has shown a lot of kindness so far. Lee Jae-chul lowered his guard slightly, frowned and asked, "You just said that what I saw is true." What do you mean?"

"Are you suspicious of the world right now?" the man asked rhetorically, smiling.

Indeed, he had thought that those dreams were illusory, and although he gained a lot of knowledge from them, Lee Jae-chul could not believe that they were real, because the world shown in the dreams was completely different from what he knew. Coupled with everything he had just seen, the kind of person who could fly and move mountains was simply a myth, and Lee Jae-chul couldn't believe it.

"Yes. ”

Hearing Lee Jae-cheol's answer, the man spoke, "But those did exist. ”

"How is that possible!" Lee Jae-chul's eyes widened.

"You have seen them before, but those generations are different from where you are now, and before this generation they disappeared from this star. ”

"What do you say? I have witnessed with my own eyes? What does this mean?" Lee Jae-chul became more and more confused the more he listened.

"Because of some accident, you went back in time, and when you were about to die and disappear, I kept you, and then you and I observed these generations. ”

"Back in the day?, this kind of thing happened to me?" Lee Jae-chul feels like he is in a fairy tale world.

"Do you remember the first thing you saw?"

"The first ...... to see" Lee Jae-chul remembered the two people who came up from the clouds and the young man who was thrown into the roulette, "You mean those two people sent me back?"

The man smiled but said nothing.

Lee Jae-chul asked again, "Then why did I come to this generation again?"

"It's up to you to decide, and it's my reward for you. ”

Hearing this answer, Lee Jae-chul was silent, and after thinking of something, he suddenly raised his head and asked, "If those two people did something, then wouldn't I be ...... now" If those two people sent him back to the past, there must be some purpose, judging from the picture at the time, the young man was very resistant, and Lee Jae-chul was very worried that they would find him again.

Without waiting for Lee Jae-chul to finish talking about his worries, the man gently put his hand on his head and said with a smile: "You have to understand, you are just Lee Jae-chul now, everything in the past has nothing to do with you, it was my negligence that happened at the beginning, and it will never be related to the second time." After saying that, the man's body began to dissipate into light and rain.

Lee Jae-cheol hurriedly said: "Wait, you haven't made it clear yet!"

"It's okay, that's enough. Now you just need to do a good job of Lee Jae-cheol. The man's voice came and finally disappeared completely.

Lee Jae-chul stood in place, his mind full of thoughts.

At the end, he smiled self-deprecatingly, "That's right, I'm Lee Jae-chul now, and everything before has nothing to do with me, since you said so, it's just me who disturbs myself to delve in." ”

This conversation taught him many of the questions that had plagued him in the past, such as why he felt so lonely every time he entered a dream. The reason is very simple, when you have seen the vicissitudes of life and the changes of several generations, will there be any other emotions in your heart? Thinking of this, Lee Jae-chul began to miss his relatives and friends in South Korea, as well as his sister he had just met.

Thanks to you, I didn't get lost in it.

In the dark space that no one knows, the person who called himself "fate" in the secret room before stood in the void, "I am used to your existence, and I miss it very much after being separated for so long, so I can't help but go out and meet you, and tell you the truth by the way." I thought you would become apathetic or even break down because of those memories, but now it seems that this is not the case, which is really surprising to me. What changed you?" Looking at the picture floating in the air from Lee Jae-cheol's appearance in the Li family manor to all the experiences up to now, "Fate" wondered: "Is it love?"

At the same time, Lee Jae-chul had already taken Lee Anning to prepare to go to the United States.
