15 I will be responsible
◎I am dirty, I am not clean◎
What should be done? Do you mean to do it seriously?
Song Qiu was almost scared to death. He had lived for more than 20 years and had never even held a girl's hand, but suddenly he was hugged by a man, and their faces were so close to each other. Which straight man could withstand such stimulation?
"A difficult task to talk about?"
He remained silent and kept his head down to avoid him. Lu Yancheng could not understand why he was so resistant even though he was helping him with the task. In the end, he could only conclude that the task assigned by the system was too shameful.
He had read the information Lin Jin had given him. The missions were varied, but most of them were about conquering a character in a book. The conquering process was naturally... not suitable for children.
"In the bedroom?"
He still respected Song Qiu's choice. If Song Qiu felt embarrassed, he could go to a more private place to ensure that no one would disturb him. It was just a task and he would not really go to bed. He believed that Song Qiu, such a smart kid, could understand what he meant.
Going to the bedroom?!
Not only did Song Qiu not understand, he was also frightened to the point of being almost speechless. He had no time to think of a countermeasure and simply pushed him.
Her hand froze as she pressed on his abdominal muscles. She felt something was even more wrong, so she quickly changed to using her fist to push back. "Boss Lu, listen to what you are saying! Take another good look at me. I'm so ugly, and you just said I wasn't good-looking!"
It doesn’t look bad, in fact it looks very good. Lu Yancheng actually agrees with what Lu Yang said. With the looks of him, how can anything he wears not look good?
But the current situation is not suitable for explaining this misunderstanding. Lu Yancheng would rather solve the main business first. The system is a very important thing, and he needs to conduct a deeper transaction with Song Qiu.
“To this extent…”
"What?"
The man who trapped her didn't finish his words. Song Qiu looked over in confusion, but saw the man's extremely handsome face suddenly approaching her. The breath of another person fell on her lips, and with it came the warm and soft touch that separated her at once.
"Is that enough?"
What is enough? What did he just do!
Song Qiu was completely dumbfounded, just staring blankly at the man who had stepped back a little.
The two people were so close that they could hear each other's heartbeats, which even seemed a bit noisy in the quiet living room.
Lu Yancheng waited for a long time but got no response, so he asked again, "Is this level not enough? What task did the system give you?"
After a few seconds, the child who had been silent all this time finally responded. His beautiful big eyes were visibly dull, his lips trembled, and he uttered in disbelief, "I... I am dirty? Just like that... I am not clean?"
Lu Yancheng's hand holding him froze.
It seemed like he was saying that he was dirty, but every word Song Qiu said sounded... even dirtier.
"Isn't it a cooperation?" Lu Yancheng's hand clasped on his waist moved slightly but did not let go.
Song Qiu seemed not to hear and continued to talk to himself, "Am I... dirty?"
"We have already discussed our cooperation today. You have to promise your loyalty to me. The system and the mission should be considered as part of it, right?"
"I... am not clean anymore..."
It was just a light touch on the corner of the mouth, not even a kiss, but it turned a smart and rational child into a little parrot. Lu Yancheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He thought Song Qiu could understand him, but he didn't expect that children are just children. After all, their psychological quality is a bit poor and they can't accept this level. No wonder they refuse to talk about the system or the task.
"Shall we talk?"
Lu Yancheng patiently asked another question, but unfortunately it still did not awaken Song Qiu's rationality. He simply did not give Song Qiu a chance to think, lest the child play any tricks on him again, and directly picked him up and walked upstairs.
Without even taking the elevator, he carried her up to the fourth floor in a princess-like manner, which made Lu Yang, who was secretly eating watermelon in the tea room, speechless.
"My brother is good at this. This princess hug is quite romantic."
He had no one to share this secret with, and he felt uncomfortable keeping it to himself. He flipped through the contacts and finally stopped at the dialog box of the last person who knew about the book-traveling incident.
[Assistant Lin, my brother is carrying my sister-in-law upstairs! Princess carry! Fourth floor! This melon is ripe!]
The opponent responded immediately.
[Blackheart: Sorry, Mr. Lu, I'm off work and closed now. 】
Lu Yang: ? ? !
I said this person is not worth getting along with! He is a complete black-hearted robot. He can't even eat melons and share gossip with me after work!
Lin Jin ignored him, but that didn't mean she ignored others. After seeing the gossip he shared, she immediately sent a message to Song Qiu. It only had four words: Be safe.
The moment the message alert on her cell phone rang, Song Qiu finally came back to her senses and found herself being held by Lu Yancheng. She was so scared that she screamed and was about to jump down, but was held back firmly, making it useless for her to struggle.
"Let's talk business, about the system and the mission." Lu Yancheng explained to him calmly, "If I really want to do something, do you think you can resist? Since I didn't do anything I shouldn't have done, you can rest assured."
Thinking about it carefully, it was true. He had no room to resist. Song Qiu calmed down a little. When he was put at the door of the bedroom, he asked another question, "Can't we talk in my bedroom? Why do we have to come to your bedroom?"
Because your bedroom is monitored.
Lu Yancheng was silent for two seconds, and answered him naturally, "I'm used to it."
Song Qiu: “…”
"Then can we not go to the bedroom? Mr. Lu, we should go to the study to discuss serious matters, right?"
He was guarding against himself as if he were a thief. Lu Yancheng really wanted to tell him that if he wanted to do something, location was not an obstacle. It made no difference whether it was in the study, kitchen, living room or bedroom.
But considering that he was just a child, he didn't say anything and turned to walk towards the study.
Song Qiu followed behind him with his brain working rapidly, trying to come up with a perfect lie in the time it takes to walk a few steps.
The study door opened, and as soon as Song Qiu walked in, the man in front of him asked a soul-searching question, "Have you finished editing?"
"Ah...haha...Mr. Lu, what are you talking about?" Song Qiu stopped walking, danger alarms blaring in his mind. He backed away while speaking, "How could I make this up...Hey hey hey!"
No matter how fast he moved, he was ultimately defeated by the other person's long arms. The door was closed directly, and Song Qiu almost bumped into the door, looking for a crack in the floor in embarrassment.
Lu Yancheng pressed the door with one hand, trapping him between the door and himself, and just looked down at his evasive eyes, "You didn't complete the task just now, so what is the task the system gave you? We already had a hug, and you took the initiative to come over, so does that mean we should kiss?"
Song Qiu raised his hand to cover his mouth and shook his head at him frantically.
"Or... to bed?"
!!!
Song Qiu turned around and pulled the door handle. Just as he opened the door a little and saw a glimpse of hope, an arm suddenly stretched out from behind him and grabbed him back like a pillow.
"It seems to be going to bed."
Hearing the man's chuckle in his ears, Song Qiu was stunned at first, and then his scalp went numb with fright.
Lu Yancheng cheated him!
Such a fool actually fell for it and let others guess the real mission based on his reaction!
"Mr. Lu... Mr. Lu..." He was just a little clever, but he had never experienced such a situation. Before he traveled through the book, he had never thought that a serious man like him would need to worry about being forced. He was so scared that he stuttered, "I think... this... this matter is actually..."
"I said I don't have a hobby of forcing people."
The man holding him stepped away and walked towards the sofa not far away. After he got off, he looked towards him and gestured to the seat opposite him with his eyes, "Sit down."
Song Qiu was stunned, totally unable to understand Lu Yancheng's actions.
Why did he keep asking about the mission, and when he guessed it right, he pulled him back and wouldn't let him go, but now he's letting him go?
"You can choose to leave now. When you calm down and are willing to talk, we can talk about the system and the mission again."
Lu Yancheng just wanted to know the truth, and his original intention was not to scare him. He generously gave him a choice, "You can also come over now and we can talk about it. You can tell me directly if you have any concerns."
"If you don't agree, I won't hurt you just to explore something unknown. This is the basic principle of our cooperation."
He had left such a good impression on Song Qiu during the day that Song Qiu chose the latter without much hesitation. He moved over step by step, sat opposite him, and took a deep breath, "Mr. Lu, I admit that I concealed some things about the system."
"Anything else?" Lu Yancheng's expression was very calm from beginning to end. He did not show any anger from being deceived or dissatisfaction from being misunderstood. Even his tone was calm. "I won't ask. I will only listen to you. It's up to you to say whatever you want to say, whether it's the truth or a lie. This is your freedom."
"Song Qiu, we are in a cooperative relationship. In this world, if you don't trust me, then I can guarantee that no one else is worthy of your trust."
After Lu Yancheng finished speaking, he stopped talking and sat on the sofa, waiting quietly for him to continue.
There was clearly no threat in his words, but the sense of oppression from a superior was overwhelming. His calmness made Song Qiu's nervousness and panic stand out.
"The system... has a problem."
Song Qiu is not as good as him in aura and experience, but Song Qiu knows how to judge the situation and understands that what he said is true. He can only choose to believe him because he needs him to keep himself safe in this world.
"Mr. Lu, if we want to repair the system, it is indeed necessary, as you guessed, for us...but I don't agree."
Lu Yancheng nodded, not surprised by his resistance, and asked seriously, "If one day your life is in danger, would you agree to it?"
"You should know that this may be a way to save your life at a critical moment. The capabilities of a system should be far beyond our current understanding."
There was no deliberate ambiguity or taking advantage; every word he said was aimed at solving the problem. Even his last assumption was much more far-sighted than he had thought.
Lu Yancheng is just more reliable and always thinking about solving problems. He really doesn't mean to bully him or take advantage of him.
Realizing this, Song Qiu suddenly felt very embarrassed, embarrassed that he had been judging others by his own standards.
"Mr. Lu, I understand what you mean. You are right. I am not rational enough to look at this matter."
He was flustered and confused, but he understood everything immediately. Lu Yancheng was very pleased. "So what is your answer?"
"In that situation..." Song Qiu's tone gradually became firm, "Of course staying alive is the most important thing."
At this moment, Lu Yancheng looked at him with unprecedented appreciation.
He is principled, but not blindly fussy about details; he is realistic and sober.
Song Qiu is the same type of person as him.
Lu Yancheng suddenly felt impulsive. Maybe he was attracted by her beauty, or he weighed the pros and cons, or maybe his heartbeat quickened after the kiss that happened in an instant. Anyway, he thought about it and said it.
"If that day really comes, I will take responsibility, legitimately."
