World Seven. Stand-in Lover (43) -END
The womanâs chin was raised slightly, and the white jade-like face seemed to be coated with a layer of veil-like mist under the warm yellow light, with a hazy aesthetic feeling.
His throat was dry, and his Adamâs apple rolled.
Chi Yuâs voice was low and hoarse, with damp black hair resting on his smooth and full forehead, with lowered eyebrows and lowered eyes, like a well-behaved and quiet big child.
Xue Xueâs eyes became more gentle.
âWhy didnât you tell me your real name?â
âBecause, I donât want to get involved with the past.â
The man pronounced his words clearly, pausing cleverly between each word without hesitation.
This was the answer Xue Xue expected.
She nodded, and went on to ask a second question.
âIf I break up with you now, what will you do?â
Xue Xue clearly saw that the pair of dark pupils narrowed to the extreme and then enlarged suddenly, and then froze in a state of uncertainty and no focus.
âWhat are you talking about?â Chi Yuâs voice was suppressed, even if it was a lingering tone, it still brought a hint of coolness when it penetrated into the eardrums. âSay it again? Huh?â
âI said, if I break up with you nowâŚâ Xue Xue didnât evade or allow Chi Yu to evade, and repeated her question in a natural tone. âWhat will you do?â
Chi Yu almost blurted out the answer in his heart without even thinking about it. The answer is blackmail. He will not allow the person in front of him to leave his side, even if it is just a hypothetical. As long as the thought of what Xue Xue said has a chance of coming true, he felt that reason seemed so redundant and ridiculous.
âHmm?â Seeing that Chi Yu suddenly lost his voice, Xue Xue did not urge him, but still looked at him with gentle and encouraging eyes. âAyu, you can think or hesitate, but I hope that the answer you say is the one that you will actually act on in the end.â
âThere is no need for lies between us, is there?â
This sentence was like a breakthrough.
For a moment, Chi Yu was in a trance as if he had just woken up from a big dream.
What he said to Xue Xue was actually only a part of it, the most important and crucial part, but some details, such as the inferior means other than drug control that he had experienced in the mental hospital, he did not fully reveal.
He felt that it didnât matter anymore, and he really didnât remember clearly.
There was a time when Chi Yu felt as if he was trapped in a maze, and there seemed to be different personalities pulling each other in his body. When the dark and bloodthirsty side prevailed and manifested in specific actions, what burst out was not pain , but the thrill of despair.
In such an unstable mental state, it only took him three years to gather the forces that had been loose since Lin Jingâs death into his hands and spread them out. At the same time, he completely dismantled Huang Youdaâs long-time plan and personally sent people into the carefully crafted cage, so that he could use the rest of his life to experience everything he designed back then.
In the past three years, Chi Yu felt that he had become another person.
A cold-blooded, emotionless, brutal and bloodthirsty person.
He was not directly infected with human blood, but became a superior judge, indirectly deciding life and death.
In the end, Chi Yu himself couldnât tell whether he was like this by nature, or was he deeply affected by the drug without knowing it?
When the dust settled and came to an end, Chi Yu accepted the proposal of his fatherâs old friend to go to a private clinic for treatment when he was sober.
A year later, when his condition gradually stabilized, he chose to become Chi Yu under the doctorâs advice, using another name to experience another life.
He didnât separate Lin Chiyu from Chi Yu, but just switched between the two identities, moderately to relieve stress and improve his self-control by changing the environment, and reshaped his personality.
Facts have proved that the effect of the treatment is remarkable, especially after meeting Xue Li.
Although Chi Yu knew that the violent beast had never disappeared, it just learned to hibernate just like himself in the mental hospitalâŚ
The desire to break free from the shackles and break out of the gate.
Xue Xue felt that Chi Yuâs arms around her waist were constantly tightening, just like the unpredictable eyes of the man, sending out a dangerous message.
Itâs not that Xue Xue couldnât feel it, but she still chose to maintain the same posture, gazing at him tolerantly and peacefully.
Her gaze were like running water, enough to wash away the filth of the world.
âIâŚâ Chi Yu slowly closed his eyes, like an embarrassed student, expressing the answer in his heart in sentences that were not fluent. âI will accept your breakup, but I wonât give up. I will let myself become a person you are satisfied with, and then pursue you again.â
When he said this, he didnât dare to look Xue Xue in the eyes, not because of guilty conscience, but because fear, fear that his strong emotions will pass through the window of the soul and bring pressure to the person he likes.
Chi Yu had the illusion that he was being judged, and Xue Xue was the judge holding the gavel.
He hadnât been so nervous for a long, long time. He was so nervous that he couldnât help but slow down his breathing rhythm, lest he accidentally disturb the person in front of him.
Even with his eyes closed, Chi Yu felt that he could still see Xue Xue, the evening dress she was wearing today, revealing a delicate and fair collarbone, and the makeup on her face that was too late to remove, after a day of tossing revealed flaws, but she was still so beautiful that he couldnât take his eyes off her.
Chi Yu let his imagination run wild until Xue Xue chuckled.
âHuh?â Chi Yu turned his head slightly as if he didnât understand why she asked that question.
âWhyâŚâ Xue Xue slowly approached Chi Yu. âArenât you going to open your eyes to look at me?â
The light hit Chi Yuâs eyelashes like falling starlight.
He obediently opened his eyes slowly.
The woman in front of her had a sweet smile and beautiful eyes. Under the curved willow-leaf eyebrows, Chi Yu could clearly see his own reflection in her black and white almond eyes.
This is the place where he belongs.
Xue Xue put her palm on Chi Yuâs left chest, where there was a beating heart.
âThe last questionâŚâ Xue Xue stared at Chi Yu and said slowly. âAyu, do you like me?â
This should be a very simple question, but they both know that perhaps this was the most difficult question, because they should face the strange desire in their hearts, as well as the restless throb.
Xue Xue didnât care about Chi Yuâs silence, she even felt that she could give Chi Yu a little more time to recognize his feelings.
The night is short, maybe itâs time to do something more meaningful.
Xue Xue thought about kissing Chi Yu.
Unexpectedly, the man who was motionless like a piece of wood suddenly grabbed her by the shoulder with such strength that Xue Xue frowned subconsciously. For a moment, she wondered if there was an accidental mistake in any link, which broke the manâs heart and re-summoned the beast in him.
âI donât just like you.â
Usually he was calm and relaxed, seeing the rare and specific expression of nervousness from a man who can handle everything with ease, Xue Xue quickly noticed that this time was different from every time before, because Chi Yuâs face, which was fair, gradually turned into a thin layer of pink.
Chi Yu âIâ was stucked for a long time and he couldnât utter a complete sentence. Seeing his helpless appearance, Xue Xue wanted to tease him, but it always happened like this. Before she had time to do anything, Chi Yu took one step forward.
This time it was a kiss, fierce, like a kiss that wanted to swallow Xue Xueâs mouth into his stomach.
Probably just now, the seemingly absent teasing had accumulated enough fuel in the manâs heart. When Chi Yuâs lips pressed up, Xue Xue felt an unusual aura, especially when the man stuck out his tongue, and took over her entire mouth, Xue Xue felt absurd that Chi Yu wanted to suck up the air that he had finally absorbed.
But she quickly found an entry point and kept up with the manâs rhythm.
The two exchanged saliva, and the sound of tsk-tsk was particularly erotic amidst the sound of the heater running.
When Chi Yu finally let go of Xue Xue, Xue Xue fell limply on the manâs chest, with the sound of each otherâs heartbeat in her ears, because of the intimate actions just now, one fast and one slow staggered.
Xue Xue, who regained a bit, took the opportunity to get her hand into the hem of Chi Yuâs clothes, but unfortunately, she was caught by the man just as she lifted the fabric.
This time Chi Yu didnât use much force, just relying on his innate advantages, Xue Xue still couldnât break free.
She gave Chi Yu an unhappy look, but found that she couldnât look away.
Chi Yu was smiling, which was different from the usual smiles. It was the kind of smile where the facial features of the whole face were stretched out, and there was a smile between the corners of the eyes and the brows.
He born good-looking, and when he smiled, his doe eyes narrowed slightly, deepening the creases at the end of the eyes, and the slightly lowered arc seemed to be filled with honey, even from a distance, Xue Xue could smell the sweetness.
âI donât just like you.â Chi Yu repeated what he said just now, the difference was that this time he completed it smoothly. âXue Xue, I love you.â
The manâs deep and hoarse voice was like sparkling water, which slipped into Xue Xueâs eardrums and exploded with crackles.
The sweetness was released and thoroughly infused into every cell.
âWhat a coincidence?â Xue Xue turned her head to meet Chi Yuâs fiery gaze, softened her voice, and coquettishly said in a sticky tone. âActually⌠I also like you a little more than I like you.â
As she spoke, she stuck out the tip of her tongue and licked the corners of her lips.
âNo matter what youâve been through before, whether youâre called Lin Chiyu or Chi YuâŚâ
âYou are Xue Xueâs current boyfriend, andâŚâ
System: âChi Yuâs favorability is 100%, and the clientâs grievance value is zeroâŚCongratulations to the host, the task has been successfully completed.â
T/N: This marked the end of Xue Xueâs and Chi Yuâs story. Thank you for accompanying them!
