Chapter 158
After hearing what Yijiu said, Yiqi stood there in a daze.
A flurry of thoughts raced through his mind. What had happened to Yijiu? When had his emotions become so complex? In his previous life, he was just a wooden stake. Why was he suddenly asking such questions now?
Could it be that Yijiu had finally gotten the hang of it? When did he finally get the hang of it? Speaking of which, could it be that Yijiu was also going to use the family regulations in their company, which were basically unused?
However, all these thoughts that whizzed through his mind eventually converged into just one sentence.
"When did you discover this?"
Yijiu still had that calm expression on his face, but there was a rare hint of distress in his eyes as he said:
"I've noticed this in previous worlds, but I didn't think it was strange back then. After all, the host was always clinging to me. But in this world, for some reason, the host actually refused my approach, and that's when I discovered it."
Yiqi realized something was amiss halfway through: "...What on earth did you two do in the system space in the past few worlds?"
"It's a normal work discussion. At most, we sit closer on the sofa. After all, the host has been away from his family for so long, and he needs some human warmth to relieve his psychological stress."
Yijiu said this calmly, looking at Yiqi with a puzzled look.
"Isn't this also written in the system rules? It's to relieve the host's psychological pressure as much as possible."
Indeed, Yiqi recalled that there was such a rule in the system rules and rubbed his solar plexus.
——We are asking you to relieve the host's psychological pressure, not to let you serve as a human pillow!
No, this can't be considered a human pillow, at most it's a system pillow.
But in the human world, it can be considered as sexual harassment!
Yiqi thought seriously. Although Yijiu's system did not sound an alarm, indicating that the host did not violate the regulations, he was still a little worried. After all, Yijiu was just a war system, and it was the first time that the system had become an ordinary person away from those war maniacs.
From how nervous he was before, as if he was raising a human for the first time, it was clear that he treated his host like a cat.
It’s a problem if the kitten goes a little beyond the line.
But the key issue is that the host is indeed not a kitten, but a normal adult male!
Thinking of this, Yiqi asked Yijiu calmly what they had done in the system space.
"...It's a very common thing. The host occasionally hugs my arm, and the rest of the time I hug the host's shoulders or hug his waist to provide him with skin contact. The host is a little shy in this aspect."
Yijiu said calmly.
“…”
Yiqi couldn't count how many times he had been speechless, but he still wanted to shout.
——It turns out that the one who sexually harassed you was you!
But judging from the fact that the system rules were not triggered, Ye Wangxing himself was willing to do so sincerely. At present, it is a case of one willing to fight and the other willing to be beaten.
Yiqi was speechless. He didn't expect that Yijiu could be so capable.
but……
Yijiu's contact with the host has reached this point, why did Ye Wangxing suddenly choose to leave at this time?
Thinking back to the news he had heard from Ye Wangxing in the previous worlds, Yiqi began to have a headache. It seemed that it was his own stupid Yijiu who had worn away Ye Wangxing's enthusiasm.
However, it was already amazing that Ye Wangxing could hold on for so long. After all, he met Yijiu who did not have an emotional system.
Yiqi didn't know whether he should remind Yijiu to install the emotional system. After all, he was originally the emotional system of the war zone, which was redundant for him.
What's more, now as an excellent host, Ye Wangxing has solved many redundant tasks in the world.
Their manpower has become sufficient, and Yijiu can return to the war zone.
Although everything still depended on his system's opinion, once the emotion module was installed and he returned to the war zone, it would be a very painful process for the system. The large amount of emotional calculations would overwhelm its CPU. Even if it was not a big deal for Yijiu, such redundant calculations were not a good thing for the mission.
Yiqi was thinking, while Yijiu was still waiting for the answer.
Fortunately, Yiqi reacted quickly and said:
"That might be because the host has his own ideas. If you get close to him, it will only cause psychological pressure. It's better to let go."
Yiqi replied in a relaxed tone, intending to let the two of them take their own course.
After all, it seemed that Ye Wangxing had already made his own decision. If Yijiu went up at this time, it would easily disrupt Ye Wangxing's thoughts.
——Besides, he is not smart at all, so what’s the point of him going up?
Yiqi looked at the cyber wood in front of him and thought.
However, Cyberwood shook his head when he heard what Yiqi said, and said with his usual expressionless face:
"My proximity doesn't put any psychological pressure on the host. On the contrary, after I make physical contact with him, the host becomes happy and excited. The host is very happy. But the strange thing is that although he is obviously happy, he is not willing to have physical contact with me. Instead, the psychological pressure is getting heavier."
Yijiu said with some distress.
"I don't want him to suppress his emotions. If he does, his mental state will only get worse. Maybe I should be more proactive."
As Yijiu spoke, he gradually fell into deep thought.
"If you take more initiative, you'll have to drag your host into bed."
When Yiqi heard this, he first complained in his heart, then he frowned and wondered what was going on with Ye Wangxing. After the CPU ran for a while, he suddenly realized something.
"—When did you know whether your host was happy or joyful? Doesn't that emotion monitor you installed, which doesn't require authorization, simply indicate whether the host's emotions are high or low?"
Yiqi asked in shock, but the next second he knew he was being hasty.
"The host agreed."
Looking at Yijiu, who was just complaining about his host leaving him, and now Yiqi said with a bit of boasting: "..."
He asked unnecessary questions.
However, after calming down, Yiqi was still a little curious. After all, Ye Wangxing had agreed to let Yijiu put a surveillance camera on him, so why was he still thinking about staying away from Yijiu?
Naturally, he asked about the whole process of what happened on the 19th, and after listening, he came to a conclusion.
The host of the Yijiu family was just about to give up his secret love, but not for long.
That is to say, he was originally facing Yijiu, but now he plans to face him from the side.
——Then he was discovered by Yijiu, who immediately held the host's face and prevented him from turning his head.
"Tsk, the sour smell of love."
After hearing the whole process, Yiqi couldn't help but look at Yijiu in front of him and thought, but he still said:
"Maybe it's because your host is almost accumulating enough attention points and has returned to his own world? It's normal to feel reluctant. Talking to your host might help ease the mood."
Although he thought it was the sour smell of love, what he was actually considering was whether Yijiu was reluctant to part with his host.
After all, Yijiu has not installed the emotional module yet, and the previous thoughts were just thoughts. This is the highest possibility.
"But I don't need to feel reluctant?" Yiqi was thinking about it when he heard Yijiu say.
Then he saw the application form that Yijiu showed him.
There are some big words written on it.
Binding application.
"—After all, if the host agrees to my binding, I can still accompany him for at least 50 years."
Yijiu said calmly.
Yiqi looked at Yijiu who had a calm face, then looked at the binding application form, and then looked at Yijiu who had a puzzled look on his face.
He turned around and started to check whether Yijiu had applied for the installation of the emotional module.
——Based on Yijiu’s behavior, no one would believe that he has no other feelings for Ye Wangxing!
But unfortunately, he couldn't find No. 19's application.
I could only ask Yijiu with a look of shock.
"——When did you apply to be bound to your host?! If the host doesn't want to work here, you will have to go on a mission for at least fifty years and accompany the host to his world!"
Yiqi said in disbelief.
But Yijiu asked calmly, even with some doubt:
"No?"
"It's not that I can't, but is it really necessary for you to do this? After all, you're just partners. Even after six years together, you can still email him, right?"
Yiqi asked doubtfully.
"But with my help, the host's journey home will be smoother."
Yijiu looked at Yiqi's incredulous expression and spoke calmly.
"But your host will have his own life after he returns. You can't possibly stay with him even until he gets married and has children - how is that any different from being a male mistress?"
Yiqi said with a twitching mouth.
"Why not?"
Yijiu said doubtfully.
"Just like no one would think that a mobile phone is a mistress, I am the same as the mobile phone."
After hearing what Yijiu said, Yiqi responded: "..."
19. When you say this, can you please at least look at your two-meter-tall height and model-like face?
When Ye Wangxing came out of the room, several hours had passed, and Yiqi and Yijiu had finished their chat.
Yijiu still had a very calm expression on his face, but Yiqi's expression was not right, and he even looked a little embarrassed.
Ye Wangxing didn't know what Yiqi was embarrassed about, and he didn't ask. He just handed the script he had just written in the room to Yijiu.
The tone was a little relaxed:
"Is it okay for Yijiu to take a look at this script?"
As Ye Wangxing spoke, he said to Yiqi, "I did make some changes to the script this time. Although the emotional line was removed, the melodrama level hasn't decreased, and it also avoids the risk of being discovered and forcibly corrected by the fate line."
Although Ye Wangxing said this with a smile, he actually felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
After all, after completing the mission in this world, he will have to say goodbye to Yijiu.
This made Ye Wangxing's face show a forced smile.
But... before Ye Wangxing could be depressed for long, a huge heat source appeared behind him.
"Host, why are we enemies this time?"
Ye Wangxing quickly took a step forward and turned to look at Yijiu. Although Yijiu's expression remained calm, for some reason, his eyes seemed a little pitiful.
...like a puppy caught in the rain.
Yi Qi on the side: ...Did this guy just find something incredible in the database?
With such beauty and eyes, how could this little host resist?
As expected, Ye Wangxing quickly explained:
"Isn't this because I'm afraid of being discovered by the fate line and forced to correct it? After all, my identity in the small world is completely unsuitable for a lover or something like that. I can only start from my past experiences, but this doesn't really suit a love line either. An enemy relationship is also suitable, right? It's even the most attention-grabbing situation."
However, although Yijiu seemed to have listened, he lowered his head slightly, looking more and more aggrieved.
"...I don't want to be your enemy, nor do I want to wield a weapon against you."
As Yijiu spoke, Ye Wangxing was also somewhat at a loss, and at this moment, Yijiu's voice became a little slow and said:
"Host, do you hate me?"
When Ye Wangxing heard what Yijiu said, he almost jumped up from the ground. He quickly shook his head and said:
"No, no, no, it's not true. It's just that the script is more suitable this time. Besides, I have a death scene at the end. Even if it's just a fake death, I can only feel at ease if you, Yijiu, do it."
Ye Wangxing didn't care about being sad anymore. He just wanted to not affect Yijiu, not to make Yijiu sad!
When Yijiu heard this answer, he seemed relieved and said naturally:
"Host, in the script involving me, as long as it fits my character, doesn't disturb the fate line, and doesn't affect your arrangements, can I change the details?"
Seeing Ye Wangxing nodded without hesitation, Yiqi sighed silently.
Even at this point, Yijiu still hasn't figured it out. If he really does...
Yiqi clicked his tongue a few times and silently closed the yellow warning pop-up window in his mind.
Ye Wangxing didn't know what Yiqi was thinking, but he silently adjusted the details of the script based on Yijiu's words. It remained basically unchanged, and it looked even more melodramatic.
But it was not until the moment he entered the small world that Ye Wangxing came to his senses.
Is Nineteen...?
Do you have your own little thoughts?
In the most luxurious banquet hall of the Imperial Palace, the crystal chandeliers reflected brilliant light, and the long table was filled with delicacies from various galaxies. The nobles were dressed in gorgeous gowns, and spirits appeared and disappeared around them, highlighting their noble status.
The emperor sat in the main seat, his golden crown revealing a stern and majestic face. His spirit form—a majestic golden lion—lay lazily at his feet, occasionally raising his eyelids to scan the audience, his gaze filled with unquestionable majesty.
The queen sitting next to him, however, seemed out of place. Queen Ye Wangxing was wearing a simple and elegant silver dress and sat quietly on the chair. His young and beautiful face did not look like a 28-year-old at all, but rather like a little prince.
But there was no expression on his beautiful face, and he even looked a little timid.
His hands were placed on the armrests of the chair, clenched tightly, as if he was uneasy and afraid, and his eyes were lowered, making him look even more cowardly.
However, the nobles present did not care about their queen's behavior, whether she was happy or timid. They just complimented a mature and elegant nobleman, and the people around him were respectful as if he was the queen beside the emperor.
But to some extent, this is actually true.
"Lord Gu, you have returned from the border galaxy this time and brought us a lot of good news." An aristocrat said with a smile on his face, holding up a wine glass.
Gu Jin smiled slightly, and his spiritual body - an elegant white fox, was standing quietly beside him.
His voice was gentle yet magnetic: "The rebellion on the border has been quelled, and the empire's influence is gradually expanding. This is inseparable from your majesty's wise decision."
As he said this, he raised his glass and toasted the emperor on the throne, and asked the nobles around him to raise their glasses as well.
He said this in a generous and graceful manner.
Ou Che's gaze lingered on Gu Jin for a moment, a subtle tenderness flashing across his eyes. "Gu Jin, I've always been reassured by your abilities. The empire needs talents like you."
"Your Majesty, thank you for the compliment." Gu Jin nodded slightly, his tone humble yet confident, "It is my honor to serve the empire."
No one noticed that when he lowered his head, there was a flash of complacency and determination in his eyes.
At this moment, another noble took over the conversation: "Lord Gu is not only a pillar of the empire, but also a close friend of Your Majesty. Speaking of which, the friendship between Your Majesty and Lord Gu is truly enviable."
As the noble spoke, an ambiguous smile appeared on his face. Everyone present knew that Earl Gu Jin was the emperor's beloved, but it was only because he wanted to join the army that the emperor reluctantly let him go.
And Earl Gu Jin did not disappoint them. In ten years, the rebels' activities went from being open and aboveboard to being covert and acting like rats in the gutter.
Now that Earl Gu Jin has returned with all the honors, I'm afraid some people will have to give up their positions.
Thinking of this, most of the nobles looked up nonchalantly at the petite figure sitting on the queen's throne, their eyes filled with anticipation for a good show.
As they expected, Ou Che chuckled softly, his eyes sweeping over the Queen, who looked so petite and pitiful sitting on the throne beside him. There was a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "Yes, some people, even if they sit in this position, cannot truly understand the glory of the empire and will only serve as a vase that does not live up to its reputation."
As soon as he finished speaking, the queen beside him trembled violently, and her slender fingers gripping the chair handles turned white from the force.
He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
——He was born without the ability to vocalize due to his genetic makeup.
So the queen is actually a mute.
This is also why Ou Che chose him as the queen.
She is just a mute. He can kick her out of the position of queen at any time if he wants.
After seeing that the queen wanted to speak but couldn't, the people present stopped paying attention to him.
Instead of paying attention to him, a mute who is about to be driven off the position of queen, it is better to say a few more words to Earl Gu Jin to gain some impression points.
However, the maid standing beside the queen showed some pity in her eyes.
She noticed that the queen's fingers were trembling slightly. She looked extremely aggrieved, and even her lowered eyes were trembling.
The maid sighed inwardly.
She knew that Ye Wangxing was forced to the position of empress by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.
The emperor needed a puppet to occupy this position, but the empress dowager did not want the emperor to marry Gu Jin and even remained chaste for him, so Ye Wangxing was just a tool.
He has no spiritual body, no background, and can't even make a sound.
"He clearly did nothing wrong, he just happened to return to the palace at that time. If he had gone back ten years ago, he would probably never want to set foot in the palace again."
The maid sighed again and thought, not noticing the extremely horrible twist on the alloy handle after the queen let go of her hand.
——Of course, she didn’t notice that the Queen was a little nervous and had to pinch the chair handle several times before the alloy handle returned to its previous shape.
There's something wrong with the details.
Just as the maid was sighing, another maid looked at her with a mocking look.
"Don't forget how many credit points this person has earned in this position. The maid is even feeling sorry for her master."
Another maid whispered, and the maid frowned and was about to retort when a noble suddenly stood up.
And his spiritual form, a ferocious falcon, was circling above his head.
This also proves his identity - Ou Che's right-hand man, Count Andre.
Count Andre cleared his throat and said loudly, "Your Majesty, there is something I must mention."
Ou Che raised an eyebrow and looked at everything he had already arranged, and said with interest: "Go ahead."
"It's about Her Majesty the Queen. I really never thought that Her Majesty the Queen would be such a person." The nobleman turned his gaze to Ye Wangxing with undisguised contempt in his eyes.
The queen, who was sitting in her seat, subconsciously grabbed the armrest of the chair again.
But he could not utter a word and could only watch as Count Andre loudly told out all the information that he and His Majesty had investigated.
"...Unbelievable! This is a monstrous scandal! Before marrying Your Majesty, Her Majesty was married before and had three children! Even her age was altered!"
Count Andre pointed at the trembling queen and said righteously.
"He is not a 28-year-old young man at all, but a 36-year-old old man!"
Ou Che coughed uncomfortably - actually, he was also 36 years old.
Andrei didn't notice that he had touched His Majesty's sore spot, and continued to speak seriously:
"Not only that, he also exploited his privileges as queen to amass wealth! He accepted bribes totaling nearly 10 billion credits in just one year! A person like him is unworthy of this position!"
The banquet hall erupted in an uproar. The nobles whispered to each other, their eyes all looking at Ye Wangxing as if they were watching a joke, and this queen was indeed a joke.
Everyone knows that Count Andre is His Majesty's mouthpiece, and everything he does is directed by His Majesty. Now it seems that His Majesty feels that he can kick him out as the queen.
Another nobleman then stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I also believe that the Queen's concealment of her marriage history and adopted son is a serious violation of the Imperial Marriage Law. Such a person is unfit to be the Empress of the Empire!"
Ou Che did not respond immediately, but turned his gaze to Ye Wangxing, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "Queen, do you have anything to say?"
Ye Wangxing sat on the chair, his body trembling and his mouth opening and closing.
He couldn't say it, he couldn't defend himself.
He was about to be nailed to the pillar of shame.
At this time, Gu Jin also frowned and said very righteously:
"Let alone becoming the queen, ordinary noble families or even ordinary good families would not choose such a person to sit on the throne of the mistress."
The nobles around also nodded, looking at the figure sitting on the queen's seat, tightly gripping the alloy handle and struggling to say something. Just as they were about to open their mouths to agree, a voice suddenly came from the side.
"I can."
Everyone subconsciously turned their heads and saw the man with a shaved head standing upright and speaking seriously.
They even saw pure joy in the man's eyes when he looked at the queen.
He was a young upstart who had just returned from the battlefield with Gu Jin, and was also an imperial hero who completely thwarted the rebels' conspiracy.
Smell the time.
And now, just as the rumors about him said, he was honest and a little dazed, raising his hand like a primary school student and saying:
"Your Majesty, after you divorce the Queen, can I pursue him?"
Everyone present: ...
Is this kid crazy?
