16. Subjectively nonexistent, but objectively present

Today's Yan Huan is not yesterday's Yan Huan.

This sounds like sophistry, and Yan Huan doesn't agree with it, but he does indeed feel a bit of regret about the choices he made yesterday.

It's like when he was six and made a wish for something fantastical, only to have the modifier come out of nowhere in his first year of high school, ready to beat him down to his knees.

In any case, he's really regretting it now.

After washing up, Yan Huan stood in front of the mirror, straightening his appearance, while Miao also ran over, twirling around his feet with her tail held high.

A white cotton T-shirt, covered with a loose, printed shirt on the outside, paired with long tube jeans, made up his Monday school outfit.

As he watched, the young man in the mirror yawned, adding a touch of languor to his handsome face.

It wasn't until that moment that Yan Huan realized what that inescapable sleepiness was referring to.
