Chapter 85
Pei Zhao was a little confused: "Xiao Rui?"
Xiao Rui in front of him said instantly: "Host, please don't believe what she said."
Pei Zhao reacted and realized that the Xiao Rui in his mind and the Xiao Rui in front of him were two people with completely different perspectives.
Pei Zhao recalled that many times before, Xiao Rui would suddenly change from a positive attitude to a cold one. It turned out that it was because they were two different people... no, two systems?
"I will help complete the mission." Pei Zhao said in a low voice.
The voice in my head stopped thinking, as if it was not going to dissuade me anymore. And the little Rui in front of him said: "Thank you, host."
Pei Zhao nodded: "Is this the reason you came here to tell me this?"
Xiao Rui paused for a few seconds and said, "Xiao Rui is here to confirm the authority with the host in person and give the host a special power item."
…
The dormitory door was knocked on time at 10:50.
Pei Zhao pushed open the door and saw Zhou Yuli, who was sweating profusely.
"It takes at least five minutes to get from the teaching building to the dormitory. Why did you hand in your paper just when the time came?" Pei Zhao gestured to Zhou Yuli. Zhou Yuli paused on his way to the door, turned around knowingly, and locked the door.
Pei Zhao walked to the desk and sat down. He lowered his eyes to glance at Zhou Yuli's chair, raised his hand to pull out the cushion on the chair and threw it on the ground casually.
"Kneel down."
Zhou Yuli looked down at the mat under his feet, said nothing, and knelt down without hesitation.
"Tell me, where have you been?" Pei Zhao folded his arms, leaned back in his chair, and lowered his eyes to look at the person who was kneeling upright.
To be honest, Zhou Yuli's kneeling posture is very standard, and his figure with broad shoulders and narrow hips makes people's blood boil at the sight of him.
But Pei Zhao had seen a lot, so he was not moved at this time.
"...I went to see someone." Zhou Yuli whispered, "I'm sorry."
"Who did you meet?"
"Sodie."
“Being ridiculed?”
"……Um."
"Zhou Yuli, you don't want to listen, right?!" Pei Zhao said angrily, picked up a stuffed toy on the table and threw it at Zhou Yuli's face.
The plush toy hit his face, but the force was not very strong. However, Zhou Yuli still felt as if he had been slapped hard. He turned his face to the side and did not answer.
Pei Zhao calmed down a little and asked, "What did he say this time?"
Zhou Yuli's lips moved and his face turned pale.
Pei Zhao got angry when he saw him like this, "Speak!"
But Zhou Yuli seemed determined to fight Pei Zhao to the death. He pursed his lips, a wooden vine appeared in his palm, and he held it in both hands and handed it over.
"sorry."
Pei Zhao only felt that the anger in his chest, which had just calmed down, began to surge again.
"Okay, you like this, don't you?" Pei Zhao picked up the wooden vine, "I'll satisfy you."
After he finished speaking, Zhou Yuli felt a piercing pain in the palm of his hand which he had not had time to withdraw.
——Even though it was a puppet, it was still a mortal body at this moment. Zhou Yuli’s fingers shrank and soon stretched out.
The second one followed closely.
…
Pei Zhao observed Zhou Yuli's expression.
The hands were hit again and again, and the stains turned from white to bright red, and soon there was no place to start.
The wooden vine pressed against Zhou Yuli's palm, and Pei Zhao asked coldly, "Zhou Yuli, why do you want to fight me to the end?"
"I'm sorry." Zhou Yuli just repeated this sentence.
Pei Zhao almost couldn't catch his breath.
Zhou Yuli! How could he! So stubborn!
But if I hit my palm again, the skin would probably be broken, and tomorrow... I have an exam.
Pei Zhao frowned and said, "Stand up."
Zhou Yuli breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this time, Pei Zhao was not very angry.
Pei Zhao frowned and looked at him, and suddenly asked: "Zhou Yuli, do you think it will be okay if I'm not angry?"
Zhou Yuli felt empty inside when his thoughts were seen through, and subconsciously denied: "No..."
It landed mercilessly on the side of his thigh.
Zhou Yuli immediately stopped talking. That place was not like other soft flesh that didn't hurt when hit. When it was hit, it felt like hot oil was poured on it, hot and sore.
Two more followed closely. Zhou Yuli could hardly stand and his body tilted to one side. He thought Pei Zhao would turn around and attack the other side of Chu.
However,
"Zhou Yuli, do you want me to beat you until you speak?" The wooden vine was still in its original place. Pei Zhao asked, "Speak."
Zhou Yuli shook his head. The innate human instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm still existed after he turned into a puppet. He unconsciously moved away from the culprit, and for a moment, he was about to tell the secret that he had been prepared to keep secret.
But, no.
...He can't.
A heavy blow exploded on the side of the leg. Zhou Yuli's mind went blank for a moment.
It hurts so much. It really hurts so much. Compared with before, it is nothing.
"Zhou Yuli," Pei Zhao said earnestly, with his legs apart and his elbows on his knees, "Let me ask you, are you sure you want to fight me to the death?"
Pei Zhao raised his hand, and the wooden vine fell on Zhou Yuli's leg, slid across his thigh, calf, and fell on his waist, then went up, slid across his upper arm, forearm, and finally fell on...
"I won't hurt you again, but there are so many places on your body. Today, I will take care of them one by one. The strength is the same as what you just tried. I ask you again, are you sure?"
Can't. This was the subconscious answer in Zhou Yuli's brain, but he couldn't even say those words.
Zhou Yuli closed his eyes.
Never mind, just treat it as...
The next second, the wooden vine fell in the same place again. Zhou Yuli's legs went limp.
…
"Keep the rest in the account." Pei Zhao said unhappily.
He originally wanted to force Zhou Yuli. If he really hit him with that kind of force, Zhou Yuli would probably be tortured to death.
Pei Zhao had experienced it himself and knew how terrifying it was. It was enough to scare people, but there was no need to do it again at this critical moment.
However, he could just go and ask Sudi himself. The person is right under your nose, what could go wrong?
With just five words, Zhou Yuli seemed to be pardoned. He went limp and knelt on the mat.
Pei Zhao snorted and kicked Zhou Yuli's chair over to him, "Come and sit here so I can see."
Zhou Yuli knelt on the ground for a while before he stood up and tried to pick up the mat with his hands, but his palms were numb from the pain. He tried several times but his fingers couldn't grab it at all. But Pei Zhao obviously had no intention of helping him. Zhou Yuli felt a little sad, and he used his two wrists to push together and finally picked up the mat.
A cushion was placed on the chair and Zhou Yuli sat on it. However, his side leg injury affected his vision a little and he felt dizzy when he sat down.
"Hand." Pei Zhao took out Yunnan Baiyao from the desk and tapped the table.
Zhou Yuli extended his hands.
When I sprayed the cooling ointment on my face, I felt nothing but a cool sensation. His palms were full of blood, Pei Zhao frowned and said, "I'll go get some ice from Auntie and wait."
Zhou Yuli wanted to say no, but Pei Zhao obviously did not want to accept his opinion. The only response he received was the sound of the door closing.
Zhou Yuli sighed. Recalling what Sudi had said to him.
"As a puppet, you must know how to protect your master at all times. You must understand that even if a puppet is broken, there is a chance to repair it, but when a person dies, there is nothing left."
He didn't dare tell Pei Zhao about this.
What Sudi said made sense. Zhou Yuli himself was a puppet, and he knew it better than anyone else. Unless it was destroyed like before, or burned into charcoal, even if the limbs were broken, a skilled puppet master could piece the broken puppet together.
But people are different.
But in Pei Zhao's eyes, the importance and safety of the puppet Zhou Yuli and the human Pei Zhao are exactly the same.
Zhou Yuli sighed and blew gently on his still hot palms.
...How did he meet such a good Pei Zhao?
Pei Zhao came back soon.
Pei Zhao put a whole bag of ice cubes wrapped in a towel into the laundry tub and threw it on the balcony. The weather is cold now, and the balcony is terribly cold, so it takes a long time for the clothes to melt there.
Pei Zhao wrapped a few pieces of ice in a towel, and after making sure the temperature was right, he placed them in Zhou Yuli's palm and rubbed it slowly.
It stung a little at first, but as I got used to the gravity, it stopped hurting.
Pei Zhao paid attention to Zhou Yuli's expression. After his frown relaxed, he handed the towel to him, picked up the Yunnan Baiyao beside him, and ordered, "Stand up."
?
Zhou Yuli stood up reflexively, and the next second, Pei Zhao's hand was on his waistband——
!
Zhou Yuli didn't care about the wound on his hand, he withdrew his hand to cover it, his face flushed.
“No…no.”
Pei Zhao frowned, raised the spray in his hand, and said, "I won't hit you, I'll spray you, do you want to limp tomorrow?"
Zhou Yuli loosened his grip, but his face was still red as if bleeding: "Oh..."
The two of them had been frank with each other many times, and Zhou Yuli shouldn't be shy. But... doing this in the dormitory is a bit...
There was a large purple patch on the side of Zhou Yuli's leg. Pei Zhao intended to teach Zhou Yuli a lesson, so he did not go easy on him. After spraying the medicine, Pei Zhao felt uneasy and asked Zhou Yuli to sit down for a while.
This is simply - more painful than being beaten.
Zhou Yuli sat on the chair, not daring to move, and could only try his best to focus all his attention on the palms of his hands.
Pei Zhao focused all his attention on his thighs. The atmosphere suddenly fell into an eerie silence.
"Xiao Rui just came to me and told me about the universe."
Zhou Yuli looked at Pei Zhao in surprise when he heard this. "System?"
Pei Zhao nodded, told Zhou Yuli everything he knew, and then sighed: "I'm afraid we'll have to go to war soon."
"After the exams, it's winter vacation. Are you going home?"
Pei Zhao shook his head: "No. After the exam, let Bai Zhou buy a few refrigerators and beds and put them in the apartment. Maybe Sudi and the others will come too."
"Sudi is coming too?" Zhou Yuli was a little surprised. Did Sudi know what would happen in advance, so he came to inform him?
Pei Zhao looked at him: "If you don't want him to come over, let's let him live outside."
Zhou Yuli lowered his eyes, thought for a moment and shook his head: "It doesn't matter, that's too much trouble."
Pei Zhao did not ask any further questions. The two of them sat there for a while. Pei Zhao applied medicine to Zhou Yuli again, packed up the books for the upcoming exam, and the two left the dormitory.
After confirming their relationship, the two always slept in each other’s arms. It was much more convenient to live off campus.
