Chapter 84: The Anchor Brother Loves Me 31 “I…
After the earth-shattering exposure at Mo Yu's anniversary celebration, the two "brothers" Li Feng and Ye Ling became the celebrities of A University.
As the "legendary senior" and "e-sports god Blade", Li Feng was invited back to the school to give a speech. As soon as the news came out, the seats in the auditorium were booked out three days in advance, making it an unprecedented event.
Ye Ling had instantly become a rising idol on campus. His low-key school days were a thing of the past, and with his distinctive blond hair, he was instantly recognized and watched wherever he went.
"Ahhh, it's Junior Ye Ling! He's even better looking in person than in the video!"
"Junior, junior! Can we take a photo together?"
"Little Feather! Mommy loves you!"
"Junior, are you interested in starting your own livestream? With your looks, you're destined for this! Even Blade can't compare to you!!"
Ye Ling was surrounded by enthusiastic classmates and could only wave his hands continuously: "No, no, no..." He was about to become socially anxious!
778 suddenly appeared and urged: [Host! Why don't you just agree to their request! Start broadcasting! Make trouble!]
Ye Ling: “…” No way!
Li Feng's speech was an unprecedented success, and the aisles were packed with people that day.
On the stage, he was calm, wise, and had a strong aura. He quoted classics and combined his own experience to talk about career planning. The students in the audience were deeply impressed and applauded loudly.
After the speech, students rushed over to ask for autographs and photos. Although Li Feng's attitude remained cold, he was still patient.
"Hey, isn't this our college god Li? How does it feel to go back to your alma mater to make money?" Zhou Haotian appeared like a ghost, becoming the only discordant voice.
He didn't dare to confront Li Feng directly, so he turned his attention to Ye Ling, who had just come over. "Ye Ling, you've gotten so successful by being cute and relying on your brother's fame, haven't you? You two brothers work really well together, don't you?"
Ye Ling was about to retort when a gentle voice sounded first.
"Classmate Zhou, you can't say that. Li Feng's achievements are based on his own strength. Classmate Ye Ling is also very good, isn't she?" Qin Ci walked over at some point.
He first politely congratulated Li Feng on his successful speech, then turned his gaze to Ye Ling with a smile, and said in a gentle and concerned tone: "Student Ye Ling, you seemed a little unwell just now, and your face didn't look good. Do you need to go to the infirmary?"
As he said this, he actually reached out to touch Ye Ling's forehead.
Anger. Rage, surging like a raging fire, no longer able to be contained. Why was there always someone trying to touch his things? Wanting to steal his...
The strong possessive desire that had been suppressed for a long time was stimulated again by Qin Ci. His eyes instantly turned red, but he was unaware of it until Ye Ling cautiously called out tentatively: "...Brother Li Feng?"
Li Feng tilted his head and met a pair of clear eyes filled with dependence. But just as his gaze was about to meet Ye Ling's, her eyelids twitched, and a hint of panic appeared in her eyes.
"...Brother?" Ye Ling called out again in a very soft voice, as if to confirm the identity of the person in front of him.
——"Jiang Lian... please, let me out..."
A faint, trembling voice suddenly rushed into my mind, and the floodgates of memory burst open!
Li Feng's pupils suddenly shrank.
He remembered, the source of Ye Ling's nightmare, the two names that had instantly provoked his emotions...
He was Jiang Lian. The gloomy, paranoid, and crazed Jiang Lian. He locked the beautiful golden bird in a carefully crafted golden cage, enjoying the sight of it trembling with fear, thinking that would ensure its eyes would only focus on him forever.
He was also Shao Ye, the Shao Ye who tried hard to learn restraint and restrain his claws, but used ruthless means to push the golden bird away.
Countless chaotic images rushed into his mind, as well as those crazy and paranoid thoughts... They hit his nerves like a tidal wave, his vision went dark, and his forehead was instantly covered with fine cold sweat.
He remembered it all.
Those forgotten, dirty, violent, and unbearable memories... and the person standing next to him at this moment was none other than Ye Ling, the one he had hurt and imprisoned many times, the one he instinctively wanted to get close to and possess even after losing his memories.
His little bird.
Ye Ling seemed to have realized something, and the hand that was holding the corner of his clothes retracted and her mouth closed tightly.
This subconscious reaction almost suffocated Li Feng. Fortunately, Ye Ling slowed down and mustered up the courage to reach out and pull his arm - just like he had done countless times before, but Ye Ling's movements were as light as a feather.
His burning heart felt like it had been immersed in cold water, cooling it down to a comfortable and soft state. He gently removed Ye Ling's loosely grasped hand, flipped his wrist, and directly grasped Ye Ling's hand, inserting his five fingers between them and locking it tightly.
Qin Ci was blocked and left out, completely isolated from their little world, but his smile was still perfect: "I'm a bit abrupt, I'm just concerned about my junior brother Ye Ling. By the way, Li Feng, there's a small alumni gathering tonight, would you like to come?"
"No."
Li Feng didn't even look at him, turned around and left with Ye Ling in his hand.
By the time they returned to the Li family villa, dusk had already fallen. From the moment they got in the car to the moment they entered the house, their hands intertwined, their fingers conveying each other's warmth, but also a certain tacit tension.
"Brother?" Ye Ling couldn't help but whisper again, scrutinizing Li Feng's profile. This person... the expression between his eyebrows at this moment was even more pronounced than in those moments of trance before, giving him a distinct, unnerving sense of familiarity. "Are you..."
Unexpectedly, Li Feng took the initiative and suddenly asked in a serious voice: "Ye Ling, I want to know, do you have two ex-boyfriends? You called their names in your dream before."
Ye Ling's eyes suddenly widened.
"No wonder," Li Feng chuckled, his lips close to his ear, his voice low and hoarse, "You dared to climb into my bed while I was drunk... So this is how courage is cultivated."
"..." That's not the case! But Ye Ling was speechless and had no way to defend himself. Moreover, Li Feng's strong and somewhat bad temperament was exactly the same as the two "ex-boyfriends" in his memory! Bah, what ex-boyfriend? It was simply...
Li Feng was just teasing her on purpose. While the little fool was racking his brains and half opening his mouth to explain, he lowered his head and kissed her.
In a state of confusion and passion, Li Feng suddenly uttered in a hoarse voice: "You are my little bird."
"...What?" Ye Ling was struck by lightning and suddenly woke up a little. She struggled to push him away, "You...how do you know this? Are you..."
Li Feng once again blocked all unanswered questions with a scorching kiss. This time, the kiss was deeper, heavier, and filled with an urgent desire to devour him, and the long-suppressed desire completely erupted.
Soon, Ye Ling's remaining sanity crumbled under this all-too-familiar, all-too-addictive intimacy. Li Feng today was... strange, yet strangely familiar. His movements became more practiced, sometimes forceful, sometimes gentle, precisely pleasing every nerve in him.
It was like an electric current running along Ye Ling's spine. He felt so comfortable that he couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Afraid?" Li Feng's kiss slid down her jaw, nibbling her collarbone gently. "Then when you climbed into my bed... why didn't you think about the consequences?"
"I was..." Ye Ling wanted to explain, but his breath was taken away again.
At this moment, all words lose their meaning.
Li Feng was completely overcome by jealousy and long-accumulated desire. He couldn't control himself and rocked back and forth, moving with such eagerness that it seemed like he was in double speed. His hands were not idle either, caressing every place in his memory that could make Ye Ling feel comfortable.
Ye Ling's struggles and whimpers were all swallowed up. Her clothes were in a mess and her skin was exposed to the air, so wet and cold that it made people shiver, but then she was wrapped in an even hotter body temperature, so warm that it made people intoxicated.
In a trance, Ye Ling seemed to see the scarlet, familiar eyes again, but there was more tenderness and forbearance in the eyes than in his memory.
He even got so excited that he raised his face and pecked those lips.
The bedroom curtains were not drawn tightly, and a ray of setting sun shone in obliquely, falling on the overlapping figures and outlining a golden edge.
…
The next evening, Li's parents finally returned home after their trip. The atmosphere at the dinner table was warm and cozy, with Li's mother constantly serving food to Ye Ling, her face full of love.
"Xiao Ling is getting cuter and cuter," Li's mother smiled as she looked at Ye Ling. "She's even more lovable than we remembered. From now on, you should live at home instead of going to the school dormitory. The conditions there are no match for home."
Father Li also nodded in agreement: "Yes, just treat this as your own home."
According to the original plot, Li Feng should have coldly exposed Ye Ling's "perverted behavior" in front of his parents and kicked him out of the house. But now Li Feng just sat quietly by the side, a faint smile on his face, nodding repeatedly without thinking, "Yes, yes, Mom and Dad are right."
His attitude was so abnormal that Li's parents, unaware of the truth, frowned and became even more concerned about Ye Ling. Mother Li even turned around and warned Li Feng, "You can't bully Xiao Ling. Do you hear me?"
Ye Ling became even more restless after hearing this. Li Feng was bullying him? He had clearly been secretly harassing Li Feng and repeatedly causing trouble. Yesterday, he even...
Just as Ye Ling was torn between his conscience and his desires, Li Feng suddenly grabbed his hand under the table. Ye Ling froze and tried to break free, but the grip tightened.
"I just bully him, what's wrong with that?" Li Feng raised his head and smiled nonchalantly at his parents, "I just like bullying him."
Their son had returned to his usual arrogant and reckless self, and Li's parents immediately rushed to scold him for being immature. However, halfway through the scolding, they both noticed the deliberately blush on Ye Ling's cheeks, which continued to spread until his entire face was as hot as a ripe tomato.
As soon as he put down his bowl and chopsticks, Ye Ling quickly slipped back into his room as if escaping.
After locking the door, Ye Ling calmed down for a while, and suddenly remembered something that had never been completely resolved - his "Brother Feng's Little Tail" vest that he could never get rid of!
In real life, Li Feng was indeed devoted to him, but online, he had also been maintaining an ambiguous relationship with "Little Tail." The explicit language and boldness of the topic shocked even System 778, who bitterly criticized the Jinjiang protagonist's loss of male morality...
“Knock, knock, knock.”
There was a knock on the door behind him, and Li Feng's voice came in with a smile: "Why is the door still locked?"
However, Ye Ling not only did not open the door, but also quickly walked to the bed, picked up his mobile phone, logged into the account that made him extremely ashamed, and opened the chat interface with "Blade".
Feng Ge's little tail: [Brother, have you been very busy lately? Participating in activities and accompanying that little brother everywhere...]
Feng Ge's little tail: [Could it be that Brother is really in love with that awful guy?]
As soon as the message was sent, the phone vibrated.
Li Feng always replied to him immediately, which showed that he attached great importance to this little tail.
Blade: 【No.】
Ye Ling was immediately alert. The thought 778 in her mind also popped up at the right moment: [Host! The protagonist's masculine virtue is truly hopeless! He's clearly two-timing!]
[But he's clearly...] Ye Ling pursed his lips. That person had clearly followed him through three worlds, so how could he be easily swayed by a stranger online? But he said he didn't...
Just when his thoughts were in a mess, a very light laugh suddenly came from outside the door. Although it was subtle, Ye Ling who was in the quiet room still caught it.
Something is wrong!
The phone vibrated again.
Blade: [Since I'm single, do you want to date me?]
...Scumbag! Ye Ling poked the keyboard twice vigorously. Before she could finish editing the new message, her phone vibrated twice in succession.
Blade: [This world officially begins.]
Blade: [I will accompany you to the next world, earn points, and help you gain new human life...]
Ye Ling was stunned, and then the other party sent him a picture - it was a feather with a gradient of blue and green to gold, with a dreamy luster, which was actually his tail feather.
Blade: [We already have the token of love. You can't escape.]
Ye Ling was completely stunned. Instead, 778 started screaming in his head: [Host! What on earth happened to you yesterday when my privacy protection mode was triggered? Li Feng... and Jiang Lian... and Shao Ye? ? ]
Ye Ling completely ignored 778's chatter because there was a gentle knock on the window. Turning around, she saw Li Feng had appeared on the open-air balcony outside, holding up his phone and tapping the glass with a smile on his face.
Ye Ling walked over and looked at Li Feng through the glass. Li Feng turned the phone screen towards him, with two big words written on it:
[Okay?]
At that moment, Ye Ling was enlightened. Li Feng knew! Li Feng had known it all along! He knew that "Brother Feng's little tail" was him, yet he had been quietly accompanying him in his acting, watching him direct and act...!
Thinking back to when he used this account and complained about his own incompetence, all those shameful remarks were still fresh in his mind. Ye Ling's face instantly turned red, and he glared at the man outside the window with a triumphant smile.
Li Feng outside tried to open the glass door, but found it locked. His expression changed. Ye Ling looked at his frustrated expression and breathed a sigh of relief. She even took a step back, accusing him with her eyes: This liar! He's deliberately tricking him! He's making a fool of himself! Maybe he's still secretly laughing at him in his bed...
After Li Feng's attempt to open the door failed, he lowered his head helplessly and tapped his phone, and soon another line of words appeared:
【I promise, I will never scare you again. 】
Looking at this line of words, Ye Ling's heart suddenly softened. He recalled the tangled past, Jiang Lian's paranoia, Shao Ye's restraint, and the gentleness hidden beneath the cold surface of Li Feng... all of them were vivid in his mind.
"Hmph," Ye Ling reached out to unlock the door, pretending to be reluctant, "Okay then."
As soon as the door opened, Li Feng rushed in impatiently and hugged the defenseless golden bird tightly in his arms. Ye Ling was caught off guard by his embrace, and her soft golden hair was messed up by him.
"My little bird," Li Feng sighed contentedly in his ear, his voice full of cherishment, "my boyfriend."
-----------------------
The author has something to say: This article ends here. I have exhausted all my energy on this article and cannot come up with a sequel at the moment.
Thank you very much and I am very sorry. The subscription price for every thousand words on Jinjiang is the same, regardless of the quality, so I really want to do my best to make every expense and every penny of your support for the genuine product worthwhile, but I still failed to do so this time, and I am very ashamed.
I've taken your encouragement and suggestions seriously. This year, my form hasn't been great. Because I was so anxious to regain my form and prove myself, I rushed through the writing process, resulting in three consecutive articles with various issues. The character design for this article wasn't done right from the start. Hell, I even had issues with the character design I'm best at... I always try to challenge myself with different protagonists, so I'm always feeling my way forward, and it takes me over 100,000 or 200,000 words to discover any problems. By then, it's too late to fix the problems I've sown from the beginning; at best, I can only patch up the crooked branches. The final product is so crude and painful, I can't even look back.
Since the end of last year, I've been mulling over the pre-collected novel "Traveling Back to the Villain's Youth," which is about a strong-strong relationship and two-way redemption. I've been overturning many different outlines and settings along the way. During the time I was stuck writing this article, I tried to put pen to paper and officially start writing. Perhaps because I'm well-prepared, I'm in a much better state. Writing about strong-strong characters seems easier than writing about weak-strong characters, and writing long novels is also easier than writing quick travel novels. The ample space of a long novel allows me to conceive the protagonist's character from more perspectives, making him more three-dimensional and vivid, and I'm also more excited to write. In short, I hope I won't disappoint you again next time.
Thank you very much and sorry again.
