Vortex of Reincarnation
733 Words
Wu Chengyu floated freely in the endless darkness of space. Immersed in his thoughts, Wu Chengyu opened his eyes wide when he spotted a tiny vortex.
The white vortex spun rapidly and as time passed, it continued to expand. The white vortex was so glaring amidst the darkness and it had become the only light that Wu Chengyu clung to after seeing black for a long time. A frown appeared on his face when suddenly the white vortex expanded rapidly and continued to enlarge. Wu Chengyu suddenly felt a strong suction force and then his paralyzed body was rapidly sucked towards the white vortex.
When he got sucked to the edge of the white vortex, Wu Chengyu felt a twisting pressure, threatening to twist him into a fried noodle. Wu Chengyu felt fear and despair. He could only witness his body being dragged down towards the twisting space inside the white vortex.
“What is this place?”
Opening his eyes, Wu Chengyu saw a wide ceiling full of familiar but also foreign structural design. He saw a sleeping woman beside him and then he was immediately attracted by her white jade-like skin and perfect oval face. The woman’s beauty was matchless according to Wu Chengyu’s perspective, and he had never felt so attracted to a woman before. If this woman is compared against the women in his previous life, those women paled in comparison in terms of beauty to this sleeping beauty. Just as he was about to stretch his hand to touch the woman’s cheeks.
Wu Chengyu was startled to see a cute little hand. He waved and then he was stunned. Wu Chengyu screamed in fright at the sudden impulse of realization. His scream startled the middle-aged woman who was preparing hot water outside.
The middle-aged woman dashed inside like a frantic goose and immediately arrived before the large bed. She saw the baby screaming oddly and thrashing about like a child that has lost his toy. She heaved a sigh of relief and laughed, then she put the baby into her embrace. Wu Chengyu, who was screaming, was stunned and he screamed again.
“What is happening!?” Wu Chengyu frantically thought in his mind. He wasn’t able to process the situation directly. After a while, Wu Chengyu calmed down and looked at the gentle middle-aged woman humming a lullaby to pacify him. Wu Chengyu looked at the middle-aged woman for a while and gave a broad smile. This time, the woman was the one who was stunned. She didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry because the little baby in her arms could easily flip like a book. A moment ago, the baby was screaming and in just a second it smiled.
The middle-aged woman was perplexed while slowly returning Wu Chengyu back towards the bed.
“Young master Chengyu. Stay quiet and be obedient.,” The middle-aged woman lightly pinched Wu Chengyu’s nose as she gently said.
Wu Chengyu had already calmed down, observing his surroundings once again, then when his gaze landed on the beautiful woman beside him, Wu Chengyu deduced that this woman was his mother. Wu Chengyu felt proud in his heart of having such a beautiful mother.
“So, I reincarnated and became a baby while retaining my memories. It’s just the same as a typical Isekai fantasy in my previous life.” Wu Chengyu laughed in his heart as he thought of how mysterious life and fate is.
He didn’t expect to be born once again and, on top of that, he had memories of his past life and was capable of thinking while being a baby. By normal standards, Wu Chengyu’s existence is a great anomaly in the world. Of course, now no one can ever know this secret other than Wu Chengyu himself.
“Where am I? Did I reincarnate in China?” Wu Chengyu speculated.
The surrounding structure seemed similar to the Chinese houses he had visited in his past life. Though the houses were a little similar, what confused him was that he couldn’t understand the middle-aged woman’s words. So, after a while, he deduced that he had reincarnated in another country where the language they use is foreign to him.
“I will learn more about this place after my new mother wakes up. It’s best for me to sleep as well.” Wu Chengyu decided.
