Chapter 520 Extra: If Ruirui meets Brother Ji who would commit suicide in the original world line (not related to the main text)
The silver moon hangs high in the sky, and the cold moonlight shines into the quiet room through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Ji Changqing stood by the window, the moon reflected in his indifferent eyes, yet even colder and more desolate than the moon itself. His slender figure cast a lonely silhouette on the ground. This was the umpteenth night he had spent gazing at the moon alone.
Ever since the domain expanded to cover the entire blue planet and the word "strongest" became a reality, everything in the world became boring.
Suddenly, a wave of space distortion broke the silence.
The cold and noble man tilted his head slightly and cast a casual glance, only to see a figure staggering and falling from the void and landing in his territory.
"Cough, cough, cough—" He Rui propped himself up awkwardly and brushed off the non-existent dust on his clothes. "Damn...what's going on..." The moment he raised his head, his voice stopped abruptly and he met a pair of icy cold eyes that made him shudder.
His breathing hitched, and he blurted out subconsciously, "Husband?"
After asking, I realized something was wrong.
Although the person in front of him looked exactly like Ji Changqing, the coldness in his eyes was completely different from the gentle gaze he had in his memory.
The way he looked at her was as if she was looking at an ant.
He looks a bit like his brother Ji, but also very different.
He Rui felt that his husband would never look at him like that in his entire life.
Ji Changqing frowned slightly at the young man's address. He walked slowly closer and looked down at the uninvited guest condescendingly.
Deep in the memory before rebirth, a vague figure gradually emerged...
This person seemed to be a finance student from the same university who had caused him trouble several times before the disaster struck.
What’s it called?
Ji Changqing looked at him coldly, unable to remember... and it didn't matter...
His slender fingers suddenly pinched the man's neck and lifted him into the air.
The merciless tightening force made the joints creak under the heavy load.
He Rui's cheeks turned red instantly from being pinched, and he tried to pry the other person's hands apart in pain.
Even though his physique had improved after becoming an evolver, the pain of his trachea being completely strangled still made him feel dizzy.
What hurt his heart the most was the unfamiliar murderous intent on this familiar face.
"W-why..." Broken syllables squeezed out from between his teeth, and physiological tears blurred his vision.
Even though I knew it might not be Brother Ji himself, I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable seeing this face treating me like this.
He Rui still couldn't help feeling an indescribable grievance.
After becoming an evolver, all aspects of the body's qualities are enhanced.
He could hold his breath for several minutes.
But with the opponent's strength, he would probably be suffocated to death or have his neck strangled.
He Rui looked at the other person sadly, his vision became blurred, and a strange sound of pain came from his throat.
Looking at the young man's tearful eyes, Ji Changqing paused slightly.
Just as He Rui's consciousness was about to fade, the clamp on his neck suddenly loosened.
He Rui fell heavily to the ground, covering his throat and coughing violently. The hideous finger marks on his neck turned purple at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Why do you call me husband?" Ji Changqing repeated the title in a playful tone, looking down at the young man on the ground with a hint of interest in his eyes.
It had been so long since he had encountered anything that piqued his interest.
"I recognized the wrong person!" He Rui shouted in a hoarse voice, suppressing his grievance, and turned around to run away.
"Snap"
As the fingers snapped, he was instantly restrained by an invisible force, unable to move.
"Do you think this is a public area? You can come and go as you please?"
The cold voice made He Rui stiffen all over. The words were so strangely familiar that they made his heart tremble.
Only then did he truly realize the danger.
Looking at the figure approaching step by step, the face that I had been with day and night was full of unfamiliar indifference, and my heart seemed to be gripped by an invisible big hand.
Rather than fear, there is more overwhelming grievance.
"Kill me if you dare!" he roared with his head held high, choking with sobs.
Ji Changqing suddenly chuckled, and his fingertips stroked the rapidly fading purple pinch marks on the young man's neck. "Do you think I dare not?"
The memory of his near-death experience still burned in his trachea—his brother Ji would never do this to him. A bitter feeling welled up in his eyes, but was dispelled the next second by a familiar scent.
The space suddenly twisted, and another familiar figure appeared out of nowhere, firmly grasping the wrist of the abuser and protecting He Rui tightly behind him.
"Brother Ji!"
The restraints on his body loosened, and He Rui hugged the man's waist in grievance, complaining loudly and quickly, "He pinched me! This bastard fake pinched my neck! I was almost strangled to death!"
The healing power flowed from the man in front of him and rushed to his neck.
The man slightly turned sideways and teleported He Rui to a few meters away. He held the person in his arms and coaxed him softly, "Be good."
When he turned to look at his other self, the tenderness in the man's eyes turned into cold murderous intent.
"Ji Changqing" watched coldly as the guy who looked exactly like him carefully held the young man in his arms and comforted him.
He looked at that "self" whispering softly, and a strange heaviness rose in his chest.
It's just...disgusting.
His knuckles clenched unconsciously, and an emotion he had never experienced before surged in his chest.
Am I...jealous of that guy?
Ji Changqing narrowed his eyes, letting the interest flow in his eyes, and looked at the two people with interest.
