Xing Yan hastily concealed his disrespectful expression and stepped forward to check on a certain person who was in pain. âMaster, whatâs wrong?â
Bu Baiâs head hurt to the extent where he wasnât able to see clearly. He merely felt that the massage a slightly cool pair of hands were giving him was very relaxing. Looking towards his side, he called out naturally, âXing Yan,â before promptly passing out.
Seeing him faint, Xing Yanâs obedient demeanor changed. As if a layer of frost and ice had formed around him, he had an extremely cold and detached aura. His slender finger made contact with the youthâs neck, and after slightly exerting his strength, the youthâs fair face flushed into a bright red. It was beautiful â similar to the sight of a red plum flower sitting amidst the snow.
âIt isnât the right time yet. Once Iâm absolutely certain of my escape, Iâll definitely kill you.â He was currently the unwanted son of his family and had merely needed a few more years before he could exact revenge on the people who had humiliated him. However right now, he had unfortunately been captured by this person, causing all his efforts to go down the drain. Really brave!
After I dispose of them, you will be next.
Removing his finger from the spanse of fair and clear skin, Xing Yan carefully combed out Bu Baiâs ink-black hair, even specially covering him with the quilt. After that, as per normal, he withdrew and stood in a dark area.
Being forced to receive memories and feelings that didnât belong to him, Bu Bai didnât feel good at all. After Bu Bai lost conscious, he woke up after a some time. Currently, the youth by his side showed no signs of activity.
Bu Bai sobered up even more. The Originalâs memories informed him that the youth â who had been violated by a beast â lying by his side at the moment, seemed to be the Protagonist. The last bit of hope Bu Bai had shattered into tiny pieces.
Originally, he had even intended to treat the Protagonist better, in hopes that said person would spare his little life. Bu Bai despaired. Right now, it would be more reasonable to plan his escape from the Protagonist.
âXing Yan.â After Bu Bai received the memories, he was also able to identify that youth just now. Strictly speaking, he didnât count as one of the kept man even though he had been captured along with the Protagonist. From the start, he had pleaded with the Original to let him be his assistant. At that time, as the Original didnât lack any youths, and upon seeing that his intelligence wasnât bad, he had agreed. In the end, the more he was used, the more handy he became, therefore he was left by his side to attend to him.
âDoes Master have any instructions?â Xing Yan stepped forward swiftly, as if he had never left. Bu Baiâs face [1] turned red. The Originalâs hobby was too abnormal. Even during this kind of moment, he still left someone to be a spectator.
âHelp me get some medicine.â In no way was Bu Bai willing to acknowledge that this tender youth was his.
Xing Yan took the hint readily and withdrew to fetch the medicine, leaving Bu Bai in a awkward situation. Bundling the Protagonist, who was under the quilt, up in clothes, he brushed against the youthâs skin from time to time, causing his heart to tremble several times. Bu Bai constantly reminded himself, they were both male, this was nothing.
However, he wasnât any ordinary male, but an abnormality that loved good-looking men. He became even more dejected.
When Xing Yan returned, he was met with the sight of Bu Baiâs anxious appearance and was briefly surprised. He spoke a sentence, âMaster, the medicine has arrived,â before quietly and obediently retreating to the side.
As Bu Bai was occupied with taking care of the Male Lead, he didnât turn around, merely nodding his head slightly to indicate that he had heard.
Xing Yan felt that the Master today wasnât the same as usual. But, he wasnât able to place a finger on where specifically it felt wrong. Abruptly, he witnessed the sight of the Ruler, who was only wearing a single layer of clothes â pajamas â and carrying the youth who had attended to him yesterday night, walk out of the room. He was shocked to the extent where he nearly reacted.
Bu Bai didnât care about these matters. Although Lao Da had warned him not to break the original plotline, he had also dropped a hint that, so long as it wasnât too excessive, he could do as he pleased. Therefore, according to his own wishes, he was going to remedy yesterday nightâs mistake.
Following his memories, he arrived at the Rulerâs private bathing pool. Bu Bai felt that he â the Ruler â seriously made a lot of money. The bathing pool had been reproduced several times to become the size of a pond.
After dipping a hand into the water and determining that the temperature was fine, Bu Bai peeled off the Protagonist from his bosom and placed him into the water. The radiance of Spring [2] suddenly appeared. Bu Baiâs face burned red, however he endured the sudden emergence of shame and descended down into the water.
As he made such a large noise in going down, the Protagonist finally woke up to this doubtful scene of mandarin ducks playing in the water. [3] He backhanded the other with his palm. Furthermore, after slapping him, he still looked at Bu Bai with teary eyes and howled, âYou beast! What else do you want to do?â
After being backhanded innocently, Bu Bai also felt wronged. Whatever matters the Original did had absolutely nothing to do with him, for what reason must he suffer this much? In a fit of fury, he seized the Protagonist. Feeling wronged as he grasped the Protagonistâs neck, he spoke ruthlessly and fiercely towards the otherâs face, âWhat I want to do, I have already done. Right now, what else do you have to resist me?â
After those words were spoken, the Protagonist immediately recalled the hardships of the previous night and the anger he held towards Bu Bai rose yet another level. Bu Bai hadnât at all wanted the situation to develop to such a point. However, since it was already like this, he might as well thoroughly abandon treatment.
Taking the initiative to ignore the killing intent in the Protagonistâs eyes, he helped the other clean up the stains left behind the previous night, inevitably coming across a certain hidden place. Bu Bai felt the skin beneath his hand tremble slightly and lifted his head up to look at the Protagonist, who had turned completely scarlet red. In his heart, a herd of âgrass mud horsesâ galloped past.
âXing Yan, bring Yan Shu away.â With much difficulty, Bu Bai abandoned his shame and cleaned the other person. After applying the medicine, screwing the cap back on and placing it to one side, he called Xing Yan in.
When Xing Yan entered the room, he caught sight of Yan Shu, who had obviously been cared for, and his brow creased. However, he still obeyed his instructions and lifted the person up, asking, âHow should he be dealt with?â
Bu Bai pondered. If he continued doing nothing, then this Ruler would be too OOC, therefore he spoke, âLock him up in the darkroom and starve him for a few days. Let him understand what heâs supposed to do from today onwards.â
Yan Shu paled. In their â the kept men â eyes, the darkroom was not unlike a forbidden place. Those who went in practically never managed to come out. Once, he had inadvertently caught of their corpses and not one of the bodies had been whole. Has it become his turn now?
âUnderstood.â Xing Yan answered. As expected it was still the same. He looked through the mist and at the youth soaking in the water. The haziness outlined his bewitching and celestial appearance even more. Who would ever think that underneath such a beautiful body, laid such a venomous mind?
When Yan Shu was thrown into the darkroom, he barely had anything covering his body. He could only hastily wrap himself with the garb that Bu Bai had left him. However, this could only be used to hide his body from view, it was impossible to keep out the cold.
Overlapping the red marks on his body, that hadnât completely faded, were newly added whip marks. This caused Yan Shuâs already weak body to become even more battered and exhausted, and at same time, developed his hatred to a whole new level.
As for Bu Bai, who was in the bathing pool, he wasnât able to feel all these. It had already been quite a long time since he had last became a person that could feel temperature. Therefore, the feeling of being immersed in the water struck him as new and odd, so he couldnât help but soak for a little while more.
When Xing Yan returned, he discovered his Master sleeping peacefully. Not caring if his actions were overstepping the line, he went forward and scooped out the dripping wet youth, preserving the correct attitude as he wiped dry the otherâs body. If one could ignore how his fingertips were slightly quivering, then this was truly a pure and honest scene.
âXing Yan.â Bu Bai was roused by the frigid sensation and had a clear view of the youth before him.
In fact, he had already known at first glance that this youth was extremely good-looking. He just didnât know how far it went. Right now, he was finally able to see clearly. The youth was very enchanting, dressed entirely in red that made him seem dazzling to the point of intoxication.
âYouâre really good-looking.â
Xing Yan startled. He understood the meaning behind this personâs words of âgood-lookingâ. Secretly, he held a silver needle in his hand tightly. As long as he had the slightest bit errant behavior towards himself, then he wait for the opportunity to strike.
Naturally, Bu Bai was oblivious to these thoughts. His experience was too shallow and he had never met any other people before. Even if he was highly accomplished in martial arts, he still wouldnât use it as precaution on others. He merely couldnât help but stroke Xing Yanâs cheek, finding the velvety skin beneath his hand extremely fascinating and pinching it a few times. After acquiring this mere smattering of knowledge, he was very satisfied.
Xing Yan waited for a long time, however when he saw that Bu Bai still wasnât making any excessive movements, he somewhat relaxed his state of mind. After looking at him with such a complex expression, could it be that that was all to it?
âXing Yan, carry me back.â Bu Baiâs inner heart felt that since he was given the chance to enjoy himself, then he might as well make use of it properly. It was to the extent where he didnât even feel like walking.
Not asking anymore questions, Xing Yan immediately picked Bu Bai up and walked out of the room. The youthâs warm skin that was only separated by a mere layer of flimsy cloth was particularly clear. His sleepy appearance also looked extremely lovable. Xing Yan felt that he had been seduced and failed to understand Bu Baiâs mind even more. Generally, whichever person the Ruler wanted to serve him in bed, he simply needed to give command and it would be done. Where is the need to make it so complicated?
Towards the Rulerâs rich and colorful private life, the disciples of the Demon Sect more or less accumulated some gossipy thoughts. In the morning, when Yan Shu had been locked up in the darkroom, they had already begun guessing who the next favourite would be. And now, seeing Xing Yan carry the Ruler out, the situation became clear. They just didnât know how long this person could stay by the Rulerâs side.
Under the surprised eyes of the disciples, Xing Yan gritted his teeth and walked back to the sleeping chamber. Gently placing Bu Bai down and seeing his muddled appearance, he hesitated for a moment before nudging him slightly.
âWhat?â As Bu Bai had soaked to the point of somewhat exhaustion, even his voice brought along some loveliness. Xing Yan was taken by surprise and his emotions were stirred up once again.
âMaster, who would you like to attend to you in bed tonight?â Xing Yan asked in the exact same way he had always done in the past.
In an instant, Bu Bai woke up from his daze with a start and asked with a dull face, âHow many more kept men do I have?â Although he had received the complete memories of the Original, Bu Bai still didnât want to admit that he was defined as a pedophile abnormality.
âI will call them all in.â Xing Yanâs working pace as a subordinate was extremely efficient. Soon, the already large floor of the sleeping chamber was covered in countless of luscious youths.
A single glance nearly caused Bu Bai to be blinded from the beauty. The corner of his lips drew inwards, looking somewhat stiffly at a youth in the front row as he asked, âWhat are you called?â
âLu Yi.â The youth answered very frankly.
âHave all these people attended in the bedroom before?â When asking this question, Bu Baiâs voice was trembling. Forgive him for not being able to properly remember the faces of the youths who had been cruelly tortured. He really wouldnât be able to stand it.
The youth, Lu Yi, frowned and answered, âOnly some have attended in the bedroom before, most have not.â
Still good. He could still be saved. Bu Bai let out a sigh of relief. All of a sudden, he once again felt that destroying a single youth was no different compared to wrecking an entire group of youths. Instantly, he felt the entire worldâs malice directed towards himself.
âTell them to withdraw.â Bu Bai felt somewhat tired. Besides, as a person who didnât attach much importance to his desires, he couldnât possibly find a stranger to attend to him in bed.
âMaster didnât take a fancy to anyone?â Xing Yan asked.
At this moment, Bu Bai was finally aware of an issue. He couldnât destroy his character as he pleased. The abnormal Ruler being occasionally gentle and soft towards a kept man, that wouldnât be an illness. However, the abnormal Ruler constantly not appointing anybody to attend to him in bed, that would be a problem.
He honestly couldnât do it though. As if seeking for help, he turned to look at Xing Yan. In this place, he was relatively more familiar. âYou then.â Pointing his finger towards the other, he happily decided it like that.
âMaster, have you thought about it thoroughly?â Xing Yan smiled as he spoke. A burst of chilly air appeared from behind Bu Bai, however, the thick-skinned person didnât notice anything
âIâve thought it through. (â°u°â)ăâ Bu Bai answered innocently.
