Chapter 195

Not long after the conversation ended that day, Ji Lei returned to Plum Blossom King's side.

Even though the way she returned was humble and lowly enough, Jin Zirui was unwilling to even give her a position as a member of an affiliated team.

Many players on the forum were discussing this, some thought she was vain, and even though the Night King hated her to the core, she still shamelessly tried to curry favor with him.

Others say that she was just trying to survive, but she did become a well-behaved pet beside the Night King.

They compared Ji Lei and Dong Huan and opened countless controversial posts. Everyone had a different stance, but they all surprisingly agreed that Ji Lei was lower-class than Dong Huan.

Xu Heng would still go to the forum as usual, but since there was no one around to share topics with, he learned to light cigarettes for himself.

In fact, he had long lost interest in many topics on the forum. Since Ou Cheng's death, he had lost his fighting spirit and the desire to live.

His health was deteriorating day by day, and even Yi Tu and his companions were helpless.

But after Yi Tu told Xu Heng about the content of his conversation with Ji Lei, a hint of other emotions finally appeared on Xu Heng's expressionless face.

Xu Heng would light a cigarette before logging into the forum.

He didn't look at anything else, just searched for posts about topics related to Ji Lei.

His pale cheeks were vaguely visible in the smoke, and his somewhat melancholy and bitter expression was reflected on the glowing screen.

Xu Heng didn't feel any pleasure at all when he saw others suffering and sinking into the quagmire.

On the contrary, it was an extremely tormenting feeling.

Another person who felt the same pain as him was Yi Tu.

For several days, Yitu no longer had a smile on his face. He often frowned and had a serious expression.

Jiang Hanyu knew that he had suppressed the matter in his heart, and was most likely still blaming himself for Ou Cheng's death and feeling sad about Xu Heng's pain.

He tried to appease her several times, but found that it didn't work.

What was even stranger was that every time Yitu looked him in the eye, she couldn't help but avoid him.

Jiang Hanyu's heart sank, he was hiding something from him.

That night, Yi Tu was sitting on the lazy sofa reading a book, while Jiang Hanyu was getting ready to take his clothes to take a shower.

At this moment, the mobile phone placed on the bedside suddenly rang with a message alert.

Yi Tu stood up subconsciously. Although his facial expression did not show anything, Jiang Hanyu could clearly feel his nervousness.

The man's face turned gloomy in the darkness, and he took his clothes and went into the bathroom.

Yitu then turned on his phone to check the received message.

[Ji Lei: Jin has already obtained the admission ticket to the God-level card field.]

Yi Tu's expression changed slightly when he saw this message.

Me: What are the specific circumstances?

After sending this message, Yitu became uneasy.

He looked at the message "The other party is typing" displayed on the screen, and his brain stopped thinking for a moment.

These days he has been meticulously arranging Ji Lei to trick and coax people, and he is already exhausted and tired.

Ou Cheng’s death was like a huge stone, weighing heavily on Yi Tu’s heart.

So much so that on countless quiet nights, Yitu would always dream of other people dying in the card room.

Xu Heng, Shen Yueshu, Song Jingchen, or maybe it was him, Jiang Hanyu.

I had never been afraid of death before, but now I can see its terrifying shadow everywhere.

After a while, Yitu's phone rang with a message again.

[Ji Lei: The God-level admission ticket Jin got is related to his immortality card. You should know the details and I don’t need to explain it in detail.

I don’t know the time for entering the God-level field yet, but it will not be later than the 28th.

Jin was going to bring Shi Ning in, and during their conversation, in order to tease me, they accidentally revealed the name of the God-level field: the Death Code.]

Ji Lei's message was very long. After reading it, Yi Tu did not reply but deleted the messages one by one.

He stood there holding his cell phone, so lost in thought that he didn't even notice when Jiang Hanyu came out of the bathroom.

"Brother Tu?"

Jiang Hanyu's body was still covered in hot steam. He rolled up his arms and hugged Yi Tu around the waist.

Yitu subconsciously placed his hands on his shoulders, and as soon as their eyes met, he couldn't help but want to look away.

However, this time, the man did not allow it but instead forcefully pinched his chin, narrowed his eyes, and said in a dangerous tone:

"You're hiding something from me."

Yi Tu's waist trembled, and just as she was about to get off him, Jiang Hanyu held her narrow waist tightly.

"We can't talk properly."

Yitu had no choice but to soften his tone. While he was talking about negotiation, his body still wanted to struggle down.

Jiang Hanyu lifted up his thin pajamas, and his warm palm touched his delicate skin. Yi Tu's face suddenly froze, and he said in shame and anger:

"what you do!"

The man raised his eyebrows slightly and leaned close to his ear to smell his unique scent.

"Why don't you continue to rub it?"

"I've been treating you well these past few days, haven't you? You don't know how hard I've been enduring, huh?"

Hearing this, Yitu also honestly hugged the man's neck and kissed Jiang Hanyu's thin lips soothingly.

"Sorry, I think I'm a little tired lately."

Jiang Hanyu smiled and kissed her back vigorously:

"You're hiding something, and it's really hard to hide it."

Yitu's eyes flashed with an unnatural look, but he finally decided to confess:

"You figured it out."

"I really don't know how to tell you this, because I think my behavior is... really shameful."

Yi Tu smiled bitterly. He didn't tell anyone except Xu Heng that Ji Lei came to see him.

So no one knew that everything Ji Lei was going through now was caused by Yi Tu who was behind the scenes instigating it.

Jin Zirui's attitude and behavior towards Ji Lei are very bad, and Ji Lei's existence has almost become a tool for him to vent his anger.

Coupled with the disgust and jealousy of the evil lady Shi Ning towards her, Ji Lei's situation became even worse and more terrible.

One morning, Yitu even received a call from Ji Lei, who was crying and saying that Shi Ning had locked her in the basement.

And in that basement, there was also a golden python belonging to a member of the hunting team, which was more than three meters long.

Ji Lei was so scared that she burst into tears. Yi Tu asked for her address without thinking and wanted to pick her up.

However, Ji Lei said someone was coming and hung up the phone in a hurry.

Although Yi Tu had countless opportunities to ask Ji Lei if she wanted to give up, he didn't.

And Ji Lei didn't have it either.

So every day and every night after that, he wondered whether his actions were too extreme, too cruel and despicable.

And the answers after countless thoughts told him that he was indeed a despicable and calculating villain.

Only in this way can he kill the Night King, avenge Ou Cheng, and rescue Ji Lei.

But at the same time, there was another voice loudly refuting, trembling and collapsing violently.

It is questioning Yitu, you clearly have other choices, don’t you?

As long as he lends a helping hand to Ji Lei, Ji Lei will be saved.

But he didn't. He was a despicable calculator and a ruthless exploiter, who, like all players who went crazy in the end, treated human life as worthless.

And why did he do this? Simply because it would allow him to know Jin Zirui's movements more quickly.

Yitu didn't dare to look back, because he was no longer the Yitu he used to be.

So he didn't tell Jiang Hanyu about this. Whether it was out of shame or worry, he always felt guilty.

And now, he told the man everything, lowering his eyes and not daring to look into Jiang Hanyu's eyes.

I was afraid that there would be unconcealable surprise and shock in the man's eyes, or even disgust and misunderstanding.

But Jiang Hanyu didn't. He just kissed Yi Tu's eyes with heartache and licked the tears that were about to overflow.

"Want me to say something comforting?"

Yitu raised her head and glared at him. Isn’t that right?

Jiang Hanyu smiled, touched his lover's cheek and said:

"Don't worry, dear. Even if you fall into hell, I'm already waiting for you there."

"Please erase the unnecessary softness and guilt. I like your ruthless and indifferent eyes."

"Only in this way can we be a match made in heaven."

--------

Yitu asked Ji Lei to try her best to find out the exact time when Jin Zirui entered the card room, because only in this way could they use props to follow him in.

Jiang Hanyu had already negotiated with the former members of Black Crow regarding this matter.

Although there were still people who opposed it, this time Fei Ya took the initiative to stand on Jiang Hanyu's side.

And this is enough. After all, all Jiang Hanyu needs is Fei Ya's marking and surveying ability, so other people's opinions are not important.

Fei Ya hated Jin Zirui's betrayal in the spring game so much that he tried to cause trouble for him several times, but was easily resolved by the Night King.

But when he heard that Jiang Hanyu was going to take action against the Night King, he didn't ask anything and took the initiative to ask for information.

Jiang Hanyu naturally wouldn't be polite and accepted his favor in disguise.

Yitu was anxiously waiting for Ji Lei's news. The props for creating the entrance to the card field were ready, and the only thing missing was the exact time or card field number.

They waited until the night of the 26th before Ji Lei finally tricked the time out of Shi Ning.

The God-level card field will open on time at 3:05 pm on the 27th.

As long as they enter the same card field five minutes after it opens, they can use the positioning props that Fei Ya had marked on the evil girl Bai Lie before.

Everything is ready, just waiting for that day to come.

However, in the early morning of the 27th, Yitu opened the door and saw Xu Heng's face covered by smoke.

"I want to go to the God-level field." Xu Heng said straight to the point.

Yitu was stunned for a moment and subconsciously wanted to refuse him.

However, Xu Heng didn't give him a chance to refuse. He put out the cigarette in his hand, and the expression on his face was unclear.

"I watched the replay of Ou Cheng's life."

Yitu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "Why are you..."

Xu Heng smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I know he won't die as easily as you said."

"But Yitu..." Xu Heng suddenly grabbed Yitu's arm and said in a sad voice: "One hundred and six dollars, one hundred and six dollars..."

"Every knife strike avoided the fatal parts. He was tortured to death."

Xu Heng wiped the tears from her cheeks and pleaded again:

"I've never begged you for anything. This is the only time, and the last time."

Yi Tu stood there for a long time. He had promised Ou Cheng that he would take good care of Xu Heng, and he couldn't let Xu Heng also fail in the card game.

But when he met Xu Heng's eyes again, all his determination turned into a sigh.

"good."

He thought that he would bring Xu Heng back safely.
