An accident turned Jian Yue into a streamer in an infinitely thrilling survival game. Among the awakened abilities of top streamers, his survival ability was—gossip.
Audience: "Hahaha, ...
Chapter 145: Puppets also have superb kissing skills?
Jian Yue pulled Ji Huaiyu and walked quickly outside.
But when they reached the door, the earthquake had stopped, and the two people walked one after the other to the open space in the yard.
Jian Yue was still in shock. He asked, "Is it over?"
Ji Huaiyu stood beside him and said, "It looks like it."
Jian Yue asked: "Why did an earthquake happen suddenly?"
As he spoke, he thought of going outside to take a look. It was already getting dark, and the silver-black twilight was covering the dark night.
Ji Huaiyu held his hand and said, "The situation outside is unknown. There may be aftershocks at any time. Don't walk around for the time being."
The more Jian thought about it, the more it made sense.
The sunlight around them gradually grew dimmer. Jian Yue and Ji Huaiyu were standing in the yard. He lowered his head and realized that he and Ji Huaiyu had been holding hands since a while ago.
Of course, it is also possible that you forgot to release it!
But what should I do now? I can hold her hand all the time, but if someone breaks in unexpectedly, with Xiaoyu's old-fashioned personality, if she is seen, she will want to die to prove her loyalty!!
"Um...that..." Jian Yue thought for a moment and spoke slowly.
Hesitating whether to remind Ji Huaiyu.
The person in front of him lowered his eyes and looked at him. Ji Huaiyu asked, "Why were you the first one to come to me during the earthquake?"
Jian Yue was shocked all over, he was caught off guard by the question. In fact, there was no reason, he just did it subconsciously.
Ji Huaiyu said: "Since you are my nephew's boyfriend, you should look for him first."
Jian Yue said: "Well...I...because..."
He was racking his brains for an excuse.
The two people were very close to each other because they had just come out holding hands. Jian Yue looked at the person in front of him and was about to speak when the aftershock came. The slight shaking made it difficult for him to stand, so he fell straight forward. Ji Huaiyu, who was looking down at him, subconsciously bent down to support him.
He bent down and lowered his head, then subconsciously looked up to steady his body. Their eyes met and their soft lips touched almost instantly.
Jian Yue's eyes widened.
In his sight, he saw that Ji Huaiyu's dark and gloomy eyes seemed to be shaken for a moment.
The fragrance of plum blossoms instantly filled my heart.
The assistant's voice came from the door not far away: "Sir! Are you okay?"
The assistant asked anxiously from a distance, but suddenly fell silent after seeing the scene in the dark moonlight. In the dim moonlight not far away, the tall and handsome man was holding a delicate and thin
The assistant coughed lightly and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't see anything!"
The sound of his footsteps spread further and further away from the door.
Jian Yue retracted his attention and looked at Ji Huaiyu in front of him. There seemed to be a hint of plum fragrance on his lips. He defended himself: "It was just that the aftershock happened and I didn't stand firmly."
Ji Huaiyu said: "Yeah."
Jian Yue smiled, but before he could say anything, he heard someone calling from not far away: "The power is out, the power is out!"
The earthquake cut off the power supply to the town.
Living in the house might be unsafe. Jian Yue was just about to tell Ji Huaiyu that they should set up a tent tonight, but Ji Huaiyu glanced outside and then walked into the house.
Jian Yue said: "Master, you are not afraid of aftershocks."
Ji Huaiyu said almost without turning his head: "There will be no aftershocks."
Jian Yue felt a little strange. How come Xiaoyu was like a geographer and could achieve whatever she wanted? !
But since Ji Huaiyu is not afraid, he naturally is not afraid either.
Jian Yue followed Ji Huaiyu into the house and saw Ji Huaiyu found a candle from the drawer and lit it. It was strange to say, because the room was extremely dark and there was nothing in front of him, so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly.
But Ji Huaiyu seemed to be able to perform magic and could easily find the place where the candles were stored.
Jian Yue watched the candle slowly light up. He was attracted by the light and looked over and said, "Master, how do you know there are no aftershocks outside? Why are you so anxious to return to your room? Aren't you afraid of danger?"
Ji Huaiyu threw away the matches in his hand and said calmly: "Because it's going to rain heavily outside soon."
The sun is still shining brightly during the day.
Jian Yue was a little bit skeptical at first, but when he glanced to the side, he saw something not far away. As his sight swept over, he just happened to see a loud thunder exploding out of nowhere.
The sky was thick with dark clouds.
Things are really going to change.
Jian Yue was a little surprised. It was really going to rain. Could this be some kind of divine power? Jian Yue felt that he had realized something. He turned around and looked at Ji Huaiyu excitedly and said, "It's really going to rain. How magical! How did you know, young master?"
Ji Huaiyu looked at him with a very silent look, and then slowly said: "Weather forecast."
Jian Yue: “…”
The audience in the live broadcast room were very happy:
"It's not like I can actually see Butler Wang being humiliated."
"That's too funny, I say."
“Hahahaha, I give up!”
"Master, is it really okay for you to be so scientific as a monster in a horror copy?"
Jian Yue choked up and was about to praise Ji Huaiyu for his foresight. He said, "So that's how it is."
The downpour outside soon arrived, and the strong wind swept in. In order to prevent the wind and rain from penetrating the house, Jian Yue closed the door.
Now the room was truly quiet.
There were only a few candles still burning stubbornly in the room, and the atmosphere around was a little dim.
Jian Yue looked at Ji Huaiyu and said softly, "Then how do you know there will be no aftershocks in the future, young master? Is this also... from the weather forecast?"
Ji Huaiyu was sitting by the window not far away, watching the endless rain outside. Hearing this, he glanced at Jian Yue and said, "I thought you were in the academy and had seen it in the book."
Jian Yue was stunned.
He did see some historical records today that said an earthquake had occurred in this town a hundred years ago.
Jian Yue said: "I saw some, but... it wasn't very clear."
Ji Huaiyu said, "Where's the book?"
"I was in such a hurry to come find you that I didn't know where I threw the book." Jian Yue smiled and felt quite stupid. It might be related to the truth of the genocide of the puppet clan a hundred years ago, but when the earthquake came, he didn't think of anything.
Jian Yue thought about it and asked tentatively: "Could this be the once-in-a-century earthquake?"
Ji Huaiyu said: "Do you think this is a major earthquake?"
Jian Yue: “…”
This doesn’t seem to be that big indeed!
Ji Huaiyu looked at him with a serious look. After a long time, he withdrew his gaze and said, "The earthquake that happens once every hundred years is the earthquake in the mountain behind the town."
Jian Yue thought of something, and he quickly asked, "Is this earthquake related to the accident that happened to your people a hundred years ago?"
Ji Huaiyu said: "It seems that the books you read in the academy were not read in vain."
Jian Yue smiled and said, "After all, I really put in a lot of effort. Didn't I say that I would work hard to become a member of the Ji family?"
Jian Yue thought he had escaped.
Ji Huaiyu said again: "You haven't said it yet."
Jian Yue was stunned: "What are you talking about?"
Ji Huaiyu corrected him, "You haven't told me yet why you came to me first and not to him."
If Jian Yue thought that Ji Huaiyu was just asking casually the first time, then when the question was asked the second time, things naturally seemed not so simple.
Jian Yue was keenly aware of something.
He raised his eyes, looked at Ji Huaiyu, chuckled, and said, "Is the answer to this question important?"
Ji Huaiyu asked: "What do you think?"
The two people looked into each other's eyes.
Jian Yue was silent for a moment, then said seriously: "Because I am neither blind nor deaf, I will be good to whoever is good to me."
Ji Huaiyu said: "I said, I won't get hurt."
Jian Yue said: "Is it because you are also a puppet, young master?"
There was silence for a moment.
There was a heavy rain outside the window, and the howling wind blew in, bringing a cold sound.
Ji Huaiyu raised his eyes to look at him and said calmly: "When did you find out?"
Seeing that he was not hiding it anymore, Jian Yue said honestly, "I really didn't notice it. I only guessed it when I leaned on your chest that night and found that you didn't have a heartbeat."
Ji Huaiyu seemed to recall something. The reason why he had never been exposed over the years was because he was heartless and no one could get close to him.
For so long.
There is only one Jian Yue.
Ji Huaiyu whispered: "Since you know I'm a puppet, how dare you get close to me?"
Jian Yue asked with some doubt: "Why not?"
Ji Huaiyu looked at him with some surprise.
Jian Yue said, "Master, you are so good to me. You gave me a job, helped me get rid of my colleagues who bullied me, gave me birthday cakes, and let me read books to learn knowledge. You are so good to me, why should I be afraid of you? Just because of your status, does everything you have done for me not count?"
His words were not heavy, but they had a strong impact when they landed on the ground.
In Jian Yue's words.
Ji Huaiyu slowly recalled some things that happened a long time ago, so long ago that he thought he had forgotten them, but when he recalled them, they seemed vivid in his mind.
And those clear words seem to be close to my ears:
"What a monster!"
"He is a monster!"
"How can a wooden man be considered a living person?"
"Let's just ignore him!"
Countless stones and rotten leaves fell on his body, but he felt no pain. It was obvious that puppets had no hearts and should not be able to experience human emotions, but he still felt very depressed.
That was the first time.
He felt what humans always called sadness.
The master's wife once touched his head and said gently: "Xiaoyu, you are different from other puppets. You have your own thoughts and emotions. You are already a normal person. But you must keep this secret well and don't let others know."
Young Ji Huaiyu: "What will happen if people find out?"
The master's wife replied, "If people knew about this, they would be scared, or they would want to take advantage of you, which is not good for you. Except for our own relatives, you should not trust anyone else. Remember that."
Ji Huaiyu nodded and said, "I'll remember it."
This promise, once kept, will determine success or failure for thousands of years.
Ji Huaiyu pulled himself out of his memories. The two people standing by the window in the silent night were very close to each other, so close that they seemed to be just a stone's throw away.
"I treat you well because you are the one brought back by Ji Huaisheng." Ji Huaiyu said, "I am protecting the Ji family, so I will naturally take care of you."
Jian Yue said: "Really?"
Ji Huaiyu nodded.
Jian Yue smiled and said, "In that case, I'll go find Ji Huaisheng now. Master, you don't seem to like me very much anyway."
He turned and was about to leave.
As a result, before he had taken a few steps, someone behind him grabbed his arm.
Puppets have no emotions. They don't have real flesh and blood, so they can never understand human emotions. However, what is more expressive than love and emotion is always subconscious actions.
Ji Huaiyu grabbed his arm.
Jian Yue paused and looked back at him. Ji Huaiyu's loud voice seemed particularly oppressive at the window of the hotel, and he held his arm. In the moment when their eyes met, the man who had always been a big shot in the business world was always a man who was at ease.
Under Jian Yue's gaze.
Ji Huaiyu whispered, "It's raining heavily outside, and he is still kneeling in the ancestral hall. It's too dangerous for you to go find him."
Jian Yue said: "This is really strange. Logically speaking, Ji Huaisheng is the young master's nephew. The young master should care more about him. Why does he care more about me?"
The same words seemed to boomerang back at me.
Ji Huaiyu slowly tightened his grip on Jian Yue's hand, as if there was a struggle between reason and impulse, and finally he slowly let go of her hand.
But the hand that was about to let go was held by Jian Yue.
Jian Yue met his gaze, smiled softly and said, "I know why."
"Because you like me." He said, "You like me, so you don't want me to get hurt. You like me, so you worry about my safety more than Ji Huaisheng."
This short sentence caused a huge wave of shock in Ji Huaiyu's heart.
But the next second.
Jian Yue looked at him again and said softly, "Just like I like you too."
There was a loud thunder outside.
It was as if there was an uneasy heart, with lightning and thunder.
The people who came close seemed to be breathing very close. At the moment when Ji Huaiyu was about to keep his sanity and push him away, he said beside him: "Actually, I was able to avoid the aftershocks."
At the moment when Ji Huaiyu's breathing became disordered.
Jian Yue looked at him with a smile in his eyes and said, "I know you can hide away too."
Ji Huaiyu looked at him seriously. When all these were revealed, he was not embarrassed at all.
"Our identities are different." Ji Huaiyu's voice was deep and powerful.
He is a puppet, while Jian Yue is a living person.
No one wants to be with a monster. He doesn't have the heartbeat and emotions that a normal person should have. Jian Yue can have a better life. His life has already paved a destined chapter, while Jian Yue's life has just begun.
Just thinking about it.
But I heard Jian Yue say, "So what! Ji Huaisheng has already slept with someone else. He cheated on me first. I cheated on him just out of courtesy. Besides, you and I have a different status because you are the elder and I am the younger. So there is a difference. If you marry me, I will no longer be the younger but your wife. Doesn't this mean there is no difference?"
Ji Huaiyu: “…”
The audience in the live broadcast room were also stunned:
"Damn, is this even possible?"
"This logic seems to be correct at first glance!"
"Butler Wang, you?"
"Hahahahaha even the boss seems stunned."
After Jian Yue finished speaking, he felt refreshed. He felt that he had not felt so happy in a long time. He even found time to give Ji Huaiyu an encouraging look.
Ji Huaiyu was silent for a moment, and finally said slowly: "This is not a green hat. During the aftershock, it was intentional..."
He hasn't finished speaking yet.
Jian Yue leaned down again, and the light bamboo scent on his body slowly covered him and gradually merged with the fragrance of plum blossoms in front of him.
When their lips parted, Jian Yue's breathing became more rapid. He slowly stood up, looked at Ji Huaiyu, and then smiled like a successful little fox. He said, "Is this finally over?"
The candlelight in the room was indeed too dim.
It was so dim that they couldn't see each other's expressions clearly. Jian Yue could only feel that Ji Huaiyu's breathing was a little more disordered than usual.
Seeing him looking at him without saying anything, Jian Yue said, "Master, you are not going to deny it even after this, are you? Can we still be normal friends after this? You are not saying anything, are you disgusted with me? That shouldn't be the case. I am not that bad, am I? No, I have to look in the mirror..."
He hadn't said a word yet.
Just as he was about to leave, someone grabbed his hand.
Jian Yue was stunned for a moment, and then he was brought into Ji Huaiyu's arms. Ji Huaiyu pinched his chin with his rough fingertips, forcing him to look directly at him. This time, with the candlelight, Jian Yue could see his eyes clearly.
Those were a pair of eyes full of aggression.
Ji Huaiyu said in a low and hoarse voice: "Not really."
Just as Jian Yue was about to speak, someone pressed his head down with his palm, and then a slightly coercive kiss fell on him. It was raining outside the window, the rain hitting the glass, the cold wind was howling in the yard, and the temperature in the house was gradually rising.
When the kiss ends.
Jian Yue's eyes were red and he was completely out of breath. Compared with his previous kisses, Ji Huaiyu's kiss was obviously more powerful and sweeping, as if it wanted to plunder everything between heaven and earth.
Ji Huaiyu looked at him, slowly curled his lips and said, "This is what counts."
Jian Yue was completely convinced. His numb lips still smelled of each other's scent. He even had trouble standing on his legs, so he sat down next to Ji Huaiyu by the window.
Ji Huaiyu was tall, and even though he was sitting by the window, he couldn't feel much wind.
Jian Yue leaned on him confidently to calm down. He looked at the thick rain curtain and said softly, "Have you puppets also learned such good kissing skills?"
Ji Huaiyu was silent for a moment and said, "I have never kissed anyone."
Jian Yue was somewhat surprised. Could this be a gifted talent? !
Ji Huaiyu then slowly said: "I have lived a long time in the world and have seen a lot."
It turns out that he has a strong learning ability.
It turns out that talented people can shine wherever they are!
Jian Yue asked: "How long is a long time? Hundreds of years, thousands of years?"
Ji Huaiyu lowered his eyes and looked at the person in his arms. He was silent for a moment before saying, "I don't remember."
Jian Yue leaned against him, thought for a moment, and said softly, "It's okay, I'll help you remember it later."
Ji Huaiyu was a little surprised. He had been in the world for many years, and time seemed to have no concrete concept to him. It was something that passed by very quickly. He watched generation after generation of children from the Ji family be born and then disappear.
The world has no meaning to me.
Just watching the time pass by.
Until one day, someone entered his time and told him that he would help him remember it from now on.
From this moment on, it seemed that his time had meaning.
Ji Huaiyu said in a low voice: "Okay."
Jian Yue said: "But coming back to the point, is this earthquake really related to what happened a hundred years ago?"
Ji Huaiyu seemed to think for a moment before saying, "Yes."
Jian Yue's heart was shocked, and he found that things were really unusual. It seemed that there was a huge conspiracy hidden under these ordinary days.
Ji Huaiyu said slowly: "This is just a sign, the real shock is still to come."
Jian Yue said: "Is this earthquake so dangerous? Why don't we run quickly! And evacuate everyone else!"
Ji Huaiyu said: "This is not an earthquake."
Jian Yue was a little surprised. Wasn't it an earthquake?
"You can't run away." Ji Huaiyu touched the head of the person next to him and whispered, "No one who enters this town can escape."
Jian Yue: “…”
Please don't say such horrible words in such a gentle tone!!!
Originally, Jian Yue wanted to ask some more details.
I don't know how, but while we were chatting, the electricity came back on and someone repaired it. The yard became lively again, with many people coming and going reporting on the situation and casualties, so the chat was naturally interrupted.
Jian Yue didn't know where to go now.
Ji Huaiyu said to him, "It's not very safe outside these days. Come to my place. There is a guest room where you can sleep."
Jian Yue couldn't ask for more. He grinned happily: "Okay!"
It’s good to be in a relationship. You don’t have to beg for a place to sleep in. Xiaoyu gave it to you on her own initiative!
Jian Yue was in a good mood and was planning to go back for a while to get some sleep, but he ran into Ji Huaisheng who was walking in a hurry on the path in front of him.
"Why is it you?"
"Why is it you?"
Both of them spoke at the same time.
After a moment's silence.
Ji Huaisheng was actually anxious to comfort Xiaowen. The life-and-death moment of the earthquake made him realize who he really loved. He couldn't deceive himself anymore. He wanted to confess his feelings to Xiaowen. When he saw Jian Yue, he remembered that he still had this substitute to deal with!
"Well, I have something to say to you." Ji Huaisheng straightened his back and said.
Jian Yue thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I also have something to say to you."
Ji Huaisheng was puzzled, but he didn't care about what serious things Jian Yue had to do. He said, "Let me talk first. My own is important."
Jian Yue: "Actually, mine is important too."
The two looked at each other, and with an inexplicable tacit understanding, they spoke at the same time:
"I'm sorry, actually I still like Xiaowen, let's break up!"
"I'm sorry, actually I like your uncle, let's break up!"
The words fell.
Both of them were silent for a moment.
Ji Huaisheng:?
No? Was he hallucinating? Did the earthquake damage his ears?
