Jealousy (33)
Song Shu was used to sleeping curled up, so the quilt needed to be tucked in tightly, with almost no gaps.
It is said that this is a very insecure way of sleeping, but Song Shu has always disagreed. Sleep however you like, why do you have to label it.
He was fast asleep at this moment, totally unaware of Ellis standing in front of his bed.
Ellis stared at Song Shu quietly, with a rare look of paranoia and pity in his eyes.
Before coming here, he went to see the room where Song Shu used to live, where there were many of Song Shu's drawings.
Even though he accidentally found it that time before, Ellis respected Song Shu and did not look at Song Shu's privacy too much. But Bowen's words reminded him again of Song Shu's protection and gentlemanly attitude towards him, which was similar to that of a woman. So he opened the drawer again, and sure enough, he took out a full picture of the female Ellis.
What Bowen said had no effect on him. It was only when he actually saw the portrait that Ellis felt the pain of sudden enlightenment.
The pain was as intense as that of a slow torture, and every beat of the heart brought about a greater shudder.
Ellis calmly put the papers back in place.
Song Shu liked him in his feminine form, but he had never worn women's clothes before.
So is it that Song Shu likes him in her imagination? Or is the woman in the portrait someone else, and Song Shu completely treats her as a substitute?
Ellis felt that there was no need to think about these things because he didn't want to let Song Shu leave.
Once you have this idea, thinking about unnecessary things will only add to your troubles, right?
He only wants Song Shu, as long as Song Shu is with him.
Just like before, Song Shu was afraid that he didn't get enough sleep so he cast a deep sleep spell on him. Ellis also cast one, but he cast the spell to do bad things.
Although he is a great magician, Song Shu is often unprepared for magic, which makes it easy for Ellis' magic to take effect.
Ellis sat on the edge of the bed, his hot lips moving awkwardly. He pressed Song Shu's body, and even though he was caressing her through the quilt, he felt a morbid sense of satisfaction.
He has long been unable to leave Song Shu.
………
After sleeping for three hours, Song Shu felt sore in the waist and back, and his lips became hot. He couldn't help but wail: "555 Help me, I think I'm being sleep paralyzed by a ghost."
555: [.]
Your wife is that ghost.
It's also magical that Ellis, a sunny boy, turned evil because of Song Shu.
[What does sleep paralysis feel like? ]
Song Shu was still lying on the bed, as if he was sealed and motionless, and answered vaguely: "It's just that my body is very heavy."
555: [You just don’t want to get up. ]
“Hehehe.”
Song Shu turned over, closed his eyes and muttered, "I really don't want to get up. I finally slept so comfortably..."
Before he could finish his words, he went back to sleep, leaving 555 completely speechless.
From the current perspective, there are indeed no major problems with Song Shu's plot, but the emotional line is a complete mess.
Song Shu's brain is not very good, he is really slow and sensitive, so he didn't realize that several people around him were dying for him. But this is not a problem. What's more outrageous is that these people actually have different opinions on the person Song Shu likes.
In their eyes, the people Song Shu likes are all other people, and it can never be them.
555 feels that it is a talent that Song Shu can mess up the emotional line so much and make the plot line follow a weird logical circle.
After waking up on the third day, Song Shu began to think about how to break up with Ellis.
He had been waiting for an opportunity these days, wanting to break up with Ellis anytime and anywhere. But Ellis didn't play by the rules, so he never proposed breaking up, and when he did, Ellis would just push him back.
Song Shu's attitude towards this is haha:) Why are you running away? I'm going to break up with you. Is breaking up not okay? Don't go too far.
But Ellis didn't do anything particularly intimate with him, and Song Shu could barely accept Ellis's perfunctory attitude.
After a week of peace, 555 finally reminded: [Rian is not in good health, Klein needs you.]
Song Shu:?
[Klein rebelled and assassinated Ryan. Ryan had originally become younger because of the anti-aging curse, and was suddenly assassinated, and the stab almost hit his heart. Of course, his body couldn't hold on after the curse was broken.]
Song Shu: ? ?
What assassination, what reverse growth?
Song Shu was confused by the amount of information, but at least he grasped the key words: "So I have to cooperate with Klein and go to Klein's place, right?"
【Um. 】
Song Shu breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, it was time to run away. Since he was leaving, he really shouldn't break up with Ellis. There was no chance of them meeting again anyway, so it didn't matter whether they broke up or not.
Song Shu originally thought so, until he found that he could not use the teleportation array and the talisman he drew had no magic power at all, he was shocked.
"What do you mean, he imprisoned me?"
It was exactly the same as the time when Shui Lian locked him up! How could a great mage like him be locked up so casually!
"The Grand Mage status in this game is too worthless!!"
[Aren't you too Muggle? ]
Song Shu was shocked again: "What do you mean, are you laughing at me?"
555: [Yes, I laugh at you.]
Song Shu immediately lay back on the bed peacefully: "Since you are laughing at me, then I will let you laugh at me."
[………You are a Muggle with no ambition. ]
Song Shu remained unmoved.
555 yelled: [Song! Shu! Hurry up and get up and do the task for me! ! ! ]
Song Shu sighed and sat up, "Look, you really are not independent at all, and you can't live without me."
555: […Get lost!]
He said he would run away. Although Song Shu couldn't use the magic circle, he still had Ying, who had recovered from his injuries, by his side. If he couldn't use it, Ying could, right? Moreover, Ying was an outstanding graduate of the Duke of Orpheus's secret guard. He had a one-sided crush on Ellis, and Ellis was pestering him. Ying must be eager to send this annoying rival away.
Song Shu was calculating very quickly, and at the same time he was also taking Ellis into consideration. If Ying was no longer useful, he would have to find a way to make Ellis tired of him, and then he could run away.
Song Shu had a good idea, but when it came to the actual implementation he couldn't help but feel like vomiting blood.
Because Qing Xiao was like a wandering soul, Sen*wan*jie*li followed him all the time, so he didn't have the chance to talk to Ying alone. In addition, Ellis didn't come back for two days in the second battlefield, so Song Shu had no place to use his strength.
555: [Friendly reminder, if you don’t run away, Klein will not be able to hold on.]
"Don't rush me."
No one would be anxious.
Song Shu took a deep breath and decided to try to send Qing Xiao away first and go along the Ying line.
However, Qingxiao is not so easy to deal with.
When Qing Xiao heard his request, she answered awkwardly, "Sir, His Highness Ellis told me to stay close to you at all times."
With a follower like that, Song Shu couldn't really plot with Ying Sheng in front of Qing Xiao, so he was forced to follow Ellis's path.
Because he couldn't find Ellis many times, Song Shu simply went to guard the door of Ellis's room. He didn't go in, but just waited at the door.
【Why don’t you go in? 】
Song Shu got angry: "Wouldn't it be a hint if we went in?"
What if something happens later!
[You are a straight man, but you still want a lot. 】
Song Shu refused to be questioned: "You are not allowed to doubt my identity as a straight man."
Perhaps because Song Shu had been waiting at the door, Qing Xiao had no choice but to go and inform him, and Song Shu at least met Ellis before afternoon tea time.
Ellis looked tired, and her beautiful long light blonde hair was gone, replaced by clean, short and sharp hair, which soothed the sharp lines of her face.
Very handsome, but now the only thing he had in common with Alice was his pair of eyes as bright as stars.
555: [Respected Great Mage, look at this sexy Adam's apple, this tall and perfect figure, doesn't it look like it was created by magic? Oh~ and these reliable big pectoral muscles, you should also be very comfortable lying down. ]
Boomerang, boomerang darts are deadly.
Song Shu: "...Get lost!"
Only Shui Lan was following behind Ellis. He walked quickly towards them, his cloak drawing an arc.
Song Shu stood at the door with his head drooping, like a small animal waiting for his friend to come home.
Ellis subconsciously wanted to touch Song Shu's head, but he touched Song Shu's vigilant eyes, so he just moved his fingers restrainedly and said softly: "Why don't you go in and wait? You can come into my room at will."
Ellis had grown a lot taller during this period. Standing face to face, Song Shu always felt that he was at a disadvantage. He subconsciously stood up straight and said, "I came here to discuss something with you."
555: [Respected Grand Mage, use magic to increase your height. You can be as tall as Ellis. You can lose the battle even if you lose the fight!]
Hit by the boomerang again, Song Shu smiled inwardly and raised his middle finger, "555, get lost."
As if he had guessed that Song Shu would come, Ellis stepped over Song Shu and opened the door, "Come in and talk?"
Song Shu was a little hesitant. After going in, would he be able to come out standing?
Ellis paused, turned to Shui Lan, and said, "Come in too."
Song Shu looked at Shui Lan and was even more shocked. Three people? Are they having fun like this?
Ellis somehow understood Song Shu's train of thought and almost laughed out of anger. He also felt a bit of unspeakable resentment: "There are people here, you should be relieved."
Song Shu breathed a sigh of relief. So that's what he was talking about. He nodded embarrassedly: "Yeah."
It's not his fault. Ellis's words do make people think too much.
555:……
Are you really fucking straight?! Are you the only one who thought of this?!
…
The communication between Song Shu and Ellis does not seem to require much explanation, and the tacit understanding between the two is natural.
Shui Lian has always been with Ellis, so she knows how much Ellis likes Song Shu. Ellis seems to have no room for anyone other than Song Shu. Shui Lian has also seen this special feeling in Song Shu, and the object is also Ellis.
They like each other and only have eyes for each other, isn't this a match made in heaven?
When Ellis and Song Shu were communicating, Shui Lian tried to lower her presence as much as possible.
Even though words continued to drill into her ears, Shui Lan remained indifferent. The shadows under her feet were distorted and gave off a rotten smell.
He listened to his father, no, Song Shu, talking to Ellis... He used to call him father, but Shui Lan was not very familiar with the name. It stayed between his teeth awkwardly, with a hint of bitterness.
Father, Song Shu.
Shui Lan repeated the name three times in her mind, and couldn't help but think of the day when Qing Xiao offered to serve Song Shu.
Qingxiao didn't dare to look at him, and he didn't dare to look at Qingxiao either.
As an adopted son, he disobeyed his father, set fire and ran away.
Now that he had taken refuge with His Highness Ellis, he allowed his younger brother, the pair of eyes that Song Shu had once praised, to get closer to His Highness's lover.
The dirty thoughts contained in it have made Shui Lan unable to face herself until now.
Did he want Qing Xiao to be the third party? No, he didn't want to, but he suppressed it. Because once such a thought was formed, it was doomed to be not innocent.
It emerges from time to time, tormenting the mind and the emotions.
Qing Xiao probably had no idea that his brother had actually considered making him a part of such a dirty plan.
He is dirty.
Shui Lian thought that no one could have a more embarrassing mind than him, even including his own brother.
After that day, Shui Lian never mentioned the incident again, and Qing Xiao acted as if nothing had happened.
The two of them tacitly agreed not to mention Song Shu, or the so-called father, let alone the new life they had agreed upon before escaping, a new life without Song Shu.
It's like a fruit that's rotten inside. Unless it's cut open, no one can tell that the fruit is rotten.
He and Qingxiao both tacitly agreed not to be the ones to discover the truth.
………
Shui Lian thought that after Ellis opened the door and Song Shu went in, he could leave, but he didn't expect that Ellis looked at him.
"You come in too."
Shui Lian was stunned, and subconsciously looked at Song Shu. Song Shu was also looking at him, with that kind of pure strange look. Song Shu rarely looked at him directly like this, and they rarely looked at each other. Most of the time, he could only bow his head in front of Song Shu, but now, through Ellis, he also received Song Shu's pleading look.
What is this?
Shui Lian's breathing quickened and she lowered her eyes to hide her thoughts. What on earth was this?
…
Ellis' bedroom was very simple, but Song Shu didn't dare to look at it for too long.
[How did you feel the second time you entered your wife's room? Did you feel so happy that you almost fainted? ]
"I feel like you, uncle."
Song Shu bluntly confronted 555. When he and Ellis sat down, there was also Shui Lian standing next to them. Although it was strange, it was better than him and Ellis being alone in a space.
Ellis had a good grasp of Song Shu's mind. Whether it was breaking up or talking now, Ellis seemed to know Song Shu's bottom line. He wanted to step on Song Shu's bottom line and take his time, boiling the frog in warm water to make Song Shu stay with him.
But this time Song Shu was determined to leave.
Song Shu's courage had almost run out by this point. He looked at Shui Lian, and then at Ellis. He was a little afraid that Shui Lian would hear that he insisted on breaking up, and then Ellis would feel embarrassed and kill them all.
Song Shu looked back and forth cautiously. Inexplicably, Ellis understood Song Shu's little thoughts. He felt helpless. Since he let Shui Lan in, it meant that he didn't care about letting Shui Lan know the content of the conversation. He shook his head: "I don't care."
Song Shu's last worries disappeared. He didn't think about how Ellis knew what he was thinking, he just wanted to finish what he was saying quickly.
"I'm here this time to talk about what happened last time."
Song Shu said carefully: "I think we are still not suitable."
"Is there anything inappropriate?"
Ellis blinked, the haze in his eyes had not yet dissipated, "The obstacles you mentioned are not a problem for me now."
Song Shu racked his brains and blurted out the words he had prepared in advance: "But I don't like you anymore."
Lies don't hurt people, the truth is the sharpest knife. ①
Ellis didn't seem to expect Song Shu to be so straightforward. He was stunned for a moment. At this moment, his eyes and brows revealed a hint of the helplessness of a young man, instead of the calmness that he had in the past few days.
"Two people are together because of love, and they break up because they have no love anymore."
Song Shu took a deep breath and finished his words in one go, "Ellis, I don't like you anymore."
"I spent a few days confirming that I really don't like you anymore. It's better for both of us to break up."
After thinking about it, Song Shu still felt that it would be better to just say it directly. If he couldn't say that he thought Ellis was a girl, then couldn't he just say that he didn't like her?
This was an extremely cruel sentence for Ellis, but Song Shu felt relieved after saying it.
It was as if he had thrown away a piece of equipment that was not convenient or popular during his journey, and he continued his journey with ease, no longer caring about the messy object that was left behind.
Song Shu spoke very sincerely and his eyes were very serious. This made Ellis unable to control his emotions. He thought a lot about Song Shu and his future with Song Shu.
He really likes Song Shu, and he wants to take that position because of Song Shu. He wants to change Song Shu's ending, and he also wants Song Shu to like him more.
Maybe one person is planning for the future, while the other is planning to leave.
Ellis couldn't help being gloomy.
Is it useful to force someone who doesn't like you to stay by your side?
Useful.
At least he couldn't look for anyone else.
Ellis was very calm. He was indeed sad when he heard Song Shu's hurtful words, but he was able to control himself well.
He shook his head: "Teacher, I don't agree."
Song Shu: “? Why?”
No, you don’t even know that?
Ellis spoke in a light voice, as if he was trying to restrain and calm his emotions.
"Teacher, even if there is no love, we don't necessarily need to separate, right? If I agree to break up, wouldn't I be the one who cheated and then abandoned you?"
"I know the teacher is not that kind of person, so how can I bear to let the teacher bear such a bad reputation?"
Ellis said, his eyes slowly moving across Song Shu's lips, "If the teacher doesn't have anyone he likes right now, then what's the inconvenience in being with me?"
Song Shu was stunned by what Ellis said, "555, what he said makes a lot of sense."
[What kind of reason is this? You came here to break up, so wake up.]
"Oh, you're right."
Song Shu took a deep breath to calm herself down, but still insisted on breaking up. However, Ellis threw out a big move: "Bowen is also looking for the teacher. If the teacher doesn't want to go back, he can stay with me forever."
Ellis said gently: "I hope the teacher will consider the rest. I am doing this for your own good."
Song Shu was almost confused by Alice. He was so confused that he had no choice but to change the subject: "Why did you cut your hair short?"
Whether the hair is cut or not, whether the clothes are new or not... these are just small changes that happen in life, but when others mention them, such small changes are brought to the table.
Song Shu said this to change the subject and delay 555's time to find a solution, but it was different in Ellis' eyes. Because it was specially cut to distinguish the people in the portrait, this behavior was targeted at Song Shu, and it had a unique and awkward meaning to him.
Ellis paused, "Doesn't it look good?"
Song Shu didn't know whether to nod or shake his head, but he was the one who brought up the topic, and it would be weird if he didn't continue, so he could only answer dryly: "Well, long hair also looks good."
His original intention was to praise everyone for being fair, but it took on a different meaning when Ellis heard it.
Ellis's gentle smile faded, and the darkness in his eyes became more intense, "Really?"
Song Shu was still urging 555 to find a solution. Wuxia was too distracted to pay attention to Ellis, so he could only nod hastily. He didn't notice that Ellis, who got the answer, looked at him with a darker look.
555: [You might as well tell him to stop letting Qing Xiao follow him around.]
Since breaking up doesn't seem to be an option, why not try another one?
Song Shu suddenly realized.
He was confused by Ellis' words and had to give up the idea of breaking up. He took the opportunity to propose 555 to Ellis.
As long as it wasn't a breakup, Ellis was very tolerant towards Song Shu and he agreed.
Song Shu barely achieved his goal and left Ellis' room, leaving Shui Lan and Ellis with different thoughts.
From the moment Song Shu left, Ellis's aura became cold, but he still smiled, making it hard to guess what he was thinking. He looked at Shui Lian: "Qing Xiao is your brother?"
Shui Lian was still digesting the conversation between Song Shu and Ellis. He lowered his head and calmed down, "Yes, sir."
"Then I'll leave it to you to relay."
After saying this, Ellis turned around and walked out the door.
Shui Lian followed, constantly recalling the conversation between Song Shu and Ellis just now.
It was as if she was the one being rejected. Shui Lian was stunned, but at the same time she also felt a sense of pity and sympathy.
He had long known that someone like Song Shu would never fall in love with anyone, so Ellis was abandoned like them.
Song Shu is so ruthless.
But if we are so cruel to everyone, how can it not be fair?
But that ruthlessness always makes people angry, because not being special in his eyes will hurt him extremely.
He wanted to destroy his father.
The rotten shadow slowly walked into the dark corner, and Shui Lian looked at her brother who was sitting beside the bed.
"Father said that you don't have to go to him from today on."
Qing Xiao was originally folding clothes. When she heard this, she was stunned for a moment, as if it was expected, or as if it was a belated relief. Her eyelashes trembled and drooped slightly.
He kept thinking anxiously, did His Highness Ellis, or his brother... notice what he was thinking?
People with evil intentions are always suspicious. Qing Xiao had anticipated this outcome. He did not dare to look at Shui Lan and said in a low voice:
"Got it, brother."
————
Song Shu came back and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, "Is he trying to pua me?"
Ellis's words were roundabout and sounded like she was considering him in every way, but if you think about it carefully, they all seemed to be excuses for not wanting to break up.
555 wanted to say sympathetically, "You are so stupid." But if it said that, Song Shu would definitely be angry. It changed its words: "Well, you are very smart and guessed it right."
555's praise came so easily that it seemed more like it was malicious. Song Shu snorted.
The escape plan is still going on. Without Qingxiao's interference, Song Shu meets Ying smoothly.
Facing his "love rival" Ying, Song Shu is much more relaxed because he knows that Ying has no feelings for him.
"I have something I want to discuss with you."
Ying was still kneeling on the ground, and he had to look up to see him. Song Shu felt tired for him and paused, "Why don't you sit down? When you sit up, we can talk about business."
After all, he was asking for help, so he had to be polite. Ying had been kneeling all the time, and he was not feeling well.
Song Shu's words were meant to be a test, but Ying seemed to have stepped on a bubble that would make people blush, and her ears and cheeks turned very red.
Because he was recovering from his injuries, he no longer needed to dress like a hidden guard, so Ying was dressed simply. He wore black and white clothes, with cross straps loosely tied around his body, revealing a sturdy and perfect body.
Song Shu was very envious. This kind of figure had always been his dream figure, and it was something that a otaku like him could only encounter.
Song Shu didn't know how easily his envious gaze could cause misunderstanding in the eyes of others. Ying's ears and face were originally red, but now even her neck was red.
He finally sat down, but still felt very cramped.
Both sides are ready.
Considering Klein's impatience, Song Shu didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "I want you to cooperate with me to escape."
The magic restriction level on Song Shu was too high, and Ying couldn't remove it with his current strength. The best way was to go to Klein and ask Klein to use a high-level spell to help.
Ying was not surprised. He listened quietly and seriously, as if he would agree to whatever Song Shu said.
In order to strengthen Ying's recognition of his escape plan, Song Shu emphasized: "Ellis imprisoned me."
When Ying heard this, his expression became complicated. From Song Shu's perspective, he was at least angry. This also made Song Shu more certain that Ying really didn't like him and Ellis getting entangled together.
555:.
No, you don't.
Song Shu secretly gave himself a thumbs up and continued to throw out his chips: "I know Bo Wen has been looking for you and wants to kill you."
"Help me escape, and I will plead for you with Bowen later. Bowen will no longer blame you, and you will no longer be my hidden guard. You will be free from now on."
Ying survived to the end. Although Bo Wen didn't die in the end, his ending was not very good. He probably didn't have the ability to kill Ying at that time.
Song Shu held the script in his hand and didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said. He was also very considerate: "You only need to help me escape, and you can continue to stay here for the rest of the time, and you don't have to follow me anymore."
It's okay for you to develop a relationship with Ellis!
Although it was an extremely comfortable and thoughtful proposal that took all aspects of his life into consideration, Ying felt like he couldn't breathe.
Song Shu was going to abandon him again.
Ying was very sad and depressed. But he was used to this kind of depression and sadness. Since the day Song Shu picked him up, he had never been cared about by Song Shu.
Song Shu felt that his proposal was perfect. He happily waited for Ying to agree, but Ying looked at him and said, "My Lord Duke, I will help you. I will fulfill all your wishes for you."
"I only beg you to allow me to continue following you."
Ellis is here, why are you following him? Song Shu was confused, but he still agreed to Ying's request.
Probably in the game Shadow also followed the villain, and then after the villain died, Shadow followed Ellis.
Song Shu justified his own logic and turned to continue discussing the escape plan with Ying.
In fact, escaping is very simple. You just need to find a secluded place and set up a magic circle. Once the magic circle takes effect, you can escape.
Song Shu's magic power was limited now, so he could only rely on Ying. Ying was also very reliable. He set up the magic circle that day and secretly knocked on the window with a secret signal at night.
Song Shu was already fully prepared. He took a deep breath and clenched his fist: "Tata!"
555: [My heart is beating! ]
