Ye Qingyun considered leaving to avoid further harassment from those people. However, this was Gu Chenyuan's home, and it seemed unrealistic to ask Gu Chenyuan to leave just to avoid them; it would be as if they looked down on Gu Chenyuan and thought he couldn't handle the trouble.
Moreover, in the original story, those people didn't cause Gu Chenyuan too much trouble, so after thinking it over, Ye Qingyun decided to keep things as they were.
However, a few days later, when Gu Chenyuan recalled Ye Qingyun's actions at that time, he still felt as if he were in a dream.
Ye Qingyun didn't use that person as a substitute, and she didn't leave with him. What does this mean?
Does this mean Ye Qingyun is devoted to Pu Tian and unwilling to find someone to replace him, or does it mean that Ye Qingyun has gradually let go and Pu Tian's position in his heart has gradually faded?
The two guesses point to two extremes.
Gu Chenyuan dared not ask, nor did he want to ask.
If the outcome isn't what he wants, he's unsure what he'll do. Will those dark thoughts resurface, and will they be detrimental to Ye Qingyun?
He didn't want Ye Qingyun to get hurt, nor did he want Ye Qingyun to be unhappy, so not asking was the best course of action.
No matter what, only he can accompany Ye Qingyun to the end. He will not allow a second person to appear, no matter what means he uses.
That's enough.
————
The days passed uneventfully in Ye Qingyun's eyes, and soon after, his research made new progress.
Ye Qingyun frowned as she looked at the latest research findings.
The bloodline restriction on Gu Chenyuan was far more terrifying than he had imagined.
Prior to this, Ye Qingyun had not found a comprehensive analysis of bloodline confinement online, nor had Gu Chenyuan told him about these matters. Therefore, Ye Qingyun could only piece together a general impression based on what he found online.
If his previous impression of Gu Chenyuan's bloodline constraints was limited to Gu Chenyuan only being able to love him alone, not being able to change his mind, and suffering greatly if he betrayed him, and having to put him first in everything, and he only had a general idea of the disadvantages Gu Chenyuan would face, without knowing the specifics of the constraints, then after studying it these past few days, his understanding has been completely refreshed.
If his data analysis is correct... Gu Chenyuan will face a great deal of constraints and limitations.
You can't like other people, you can't betray him—that's just the bare minimum.
As the person who is liked, he also has absolute authority over Gu Chenyuan.
Gu Chenyuan could not harm him, nor could he disobey the orders he had carefully given. If he desperately wanted something, then Gu Chenyuan would go through fire and water, risking his life, to get it for him.
If you fall in love with someone else, or refuse his orders, then your mental energy will be disordered, your supernatural abilities will reverse, and you will suffer from pain.
The severity of the punishment also depends on Gu Chenyuan's attitude towards him. If it is just indifference or slight dissatisfaction, it is fine. The punishment is not fatal and can be tolerated.
But if Gu Chenyuan truly intends to go against his will, then Gu Chenyuan is not far from self-destructing due to mental disorder.
Even if he wanted to escape, he couldn't, because if the two of them were separated for too long, Gu Chenyuan would start to get headaches. The longer they were apart, the more severe the headaches would become, until he returned to Gu Chenyuan's side.
If he were to die, Gu Chenyuan would not immediately follow him, but the longer the days of his death dragged on, the more Gu Chenyuan would suffer. This suffering would continue until Gu Chenyuan could no longer endure the torment and chose to be buried with him.
From then on, as long as he wanted to, Gu Chenyuan would become a weapon in his hands.
They had no thoughts of their own and became his puppets, acting entirely according to his instructions.
There were still many rules and regulations, but Ye Qingyun felt no excitement whatsoever; on the contrary, the more she read, the more alarmed she became.
Logically speaking, if two people are deeply in love, these constraints can even be seen as a form of fun. The one being loved wouldn't ask the other to do anything too dangerous or disregard their wishes.
However, if the two people don't like each other, and the person being liked only wants to use them, then it's obvious that someone like Gu Chenyuan will have a miserable life.
No amount of love can withstand such torment. When the love of the humanoid weapons is also worn away, what will their feelings be when they face their former lovers and hear those commands?
Ye Qingyun frowned.
No, this can't be! He must find a solution to this bloodline constraint so that Gu Chenyuan can regain his freedom and do whatever he wants, instead of just having to listen to him.
Gu Chenyuan should be the most unrestrained person. He is the protagonist, no one can control him, no one can force him, he is free and has no worries.
Ye Qingyun threw herself back into her intensive research, while secretly feeling fortunate.
Fortunately, he never made any unreasonable demands. When he wanted Gu Chenyuan to do something for him, he usually spoke in a consultative tone rather than making forceful requests.
He still remembered when Gu Chenyuan first bluntly confessed his feelings to him, he tried to subtly ask Gu Chenyuan to accept his help and work together to find a solution, but Gu Chenyuan said that he was wasting his time.
What if he had insisted that Gu Chenyuan cooperate with him back then, and worked together to find a way to break the bloodline restriction?
Ye Qingyun suddenly stopped what she was doing, as if she had remembered something.
If... if Gu Chenyuan refuses to cooperate after he develops the antidote, can he forcefully demand that Gu Chenyuan drink the antidote?
In this way, it seems that everything has been solved.
Moreover, faced with such a terrifying confinement, does Gu Chenyuan truly have no desire to resolve it at all? Perhaps Gu Chenyuan originally wanted to resolve it, but was only willing to endure such confinement because of his feelings for him. With his earnest persuasion, perhaps Gu Chenyuan would come to a change of heart?
The more Ye Qingyun thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. She felt that the future was bright, and she became even more actively involved in the research.
——————
A few days later, Ye Qingyun had a preliminary idea of how to make the antidote.
Since the people she had encountered earlier had not shown up again, Ye Qingyun assumed that they had given up or had been successfully intimidated by Gu Chenyuan, so they dared not bother her anymore.
That night, Ye Qingyun lay in bed, thinking about how to gently tell Gu Chunyun about the antidote when it was ready, so that Gu Chenyuan would happily drink it.
Sigh, whether you're happy or not, you still have to drink, so you might as well be happy. Gu Chenyuan is such a smart person, he must be able to figure this out, right?
Thinking this, Ye Qingyun fell into a deep sleep.
————
On the other side.
The three people Ye Qingyun had met before were gathered together. The handsome young man was dressed exceptionally well tonight. His fair cheeks were flushed with a faint pink, and his eyes sparkled, making one want to bully him at first glance.
"Everything is ready. I'll provide the material things. As for the rest," the man smoking said coldly. "Whether you can successfully seduce him depends on your skills. Show me your best abilities and do a good job, or you'll be the one who suffers the consequences."
The handsome young man gritted his teeth and sneered, "Do you even need to tell me?"
The man smoking handed the temporary superpower agent to the handsome young man, along with two other items.
“This,” the man smoking pointed to a round disc and said, “They must have slept together. After you go in, put this on the beauty. This will teleport her to a designated location. I’ll go there to pick her up, so you and that person will have a private space.”
"And this thing, after you've done all this, spray it in the room." The man smoking pointed to another bottle of clear spray and introduced, "Royal product, a single drop is worth a fortune, a renowned relationship-separating agent, also known as the 'mistress-to-be-dominated spray.' If the person who smells it has even the slightest dissatisfaction with their lover, that dissatisfaction will be amplified many times over, and they'll become more amiable towards everyone else than their lover. And that's when your opportunity arrives. Combine it with the temporary power booster I gave you..."
The man smoking explained these things, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was impossible to fail.
Most men are naturally lustful, so how many could resist the temptation of a stunningly beautiful woman offering herself to him? Especially when that temptation is amplified by a temporary power booster. Even a celibate monk would be confident he would break his vow of celibacy.
Even if that person is mindful of already having a partner and doesn't want to betray their lover, the smell of the separation agent can cause all the pent-up resentment to surface, potentially leading them to want to break up. At the very least, they might want to vent their frustrations. And if there's a beautiful, adoring woman in front of them at that moment, wouldn't it be a perfect opportunity to use her as a outlet for their usual emotional frustrations?
He secretly installed a camera on the young man, so that as soon as that person slept with him, he could show the footage directly to the woman.
Then... the beauty saw her lover cheating, was heartbroken, and willingly went with him, thus breaking up the couple.
The man smoking felt a surge of satisfaction as he imagined Gu Chenyuan discovering that his lover had run off with him.
The handsome young man accepted the items, a smile involuntarily spreading across his lips.
These materials are priceless; he rarely sees them. Holding them, he began to get excited.
That man looked wealthy and powerful, very handsome, and fiercely protective of his own. He was practically his perfect other half.
With the help of these things, the chances of him failing are extremely slim.
Even a night of intimacy can bring a hundred days of kindness; once the act of marriage takes place, other thoughts inevitably begin to arise.
Soon... that man would be his.
————
The handsome young man, wearing the counter-surveillance suit provided by the smoking man, tiptoed into Gu Chenyuan's courtyard.
This outfit is also a very expensive, top-tier camouflage suit, allowing him to blend seamlessly with his surroundings, making him difficult to detect, whether by high-tech surveillance or supernatural abilities.
Although someone who is awake could spot him at a glance, Gu Chenyuan and Ye Qingyun are both asleep right now, and it's still dark, so how could they be found so easily?
Next, they used a special door opener, the kind used by interstellar police to sneak in and arrest criminals, to quietly open the door.
These technological products are usually controlled by the powerful and wealthy, used to deal with high-level superhumans who don't obey orders. As an ordinary citizen, he was still somewhat nervous holding such things.
Based on the information he had gathered, the young man arrived at what he believed to be the bedroom.
He was lucky; the room layout in Gu Chenyuan's house wasn't unusual, and he actually found his destination and arrived at his place.
The young man walked in silently.
To his surprise, the two people inside were not sleeping in the same bed, but in separate beds.
...Could it be that it hasn't developed to that stage yet?
Ah, this is really good news for him, so he can get there first.
The young man walked between the two beds and, using his night-vision glasses, saw which bed Ye Qingyun was sleeping in. Just as he was about to go over and see Ye Qingyun off, a cold voice rang out: "Who's there?"
"How could this be? He didn't make a sound and was wearing a camouflage suit, so how was he still discovered? This shouldn't be!"
The young man was shocked. In that instant, he threw the disc at Ye Qingyun and pressed the separating agent in his other hand down hard, and a strong fragrance immediately filled the air.
The young man breathed a sigh of relief after doing all this. He unbuttoned the top half of his shirt, turned around with tender affection, and said softly in a charming voice, "My benefactor..."
————
Ye Qingyun was awakened by the sudden noise. He opened his eyes and found himself in an unfamiliar place. Two men he had met before were standing in front of him.
Ye Qingyun quickly stood up and looked around.
Gu Chenyuan was not by his side.
Ye Qingyun took a deep breath and tried desperately to calm herself down.
Clearly, he had been kidnapped.
He was unaware of his kidnapping. What he needed to do now was to calm the two men down and wait for Gu Chenyuan to come and rescue him, or find an opportunity to escape.
The man smoking saw through Ye Qingyun's thoughts and smiled, "Waiting for your little lover to come and rescue you? He's probably not coming. He's in bed with someone else right now, he doesn't have time to come over."
Ye Qingyun didn't believe a word of this nonsense, but just to be on the safe side, he went along with the man's words, feigning astonishment while angrily saying, "Impossible! He would never sleep with someone else! Stop slandering him!"
The smoking man scoffed, finding Ye Qingyun's words laughable.
Ye Qingyun continued, "He's different from you men. He would never be tempted by beauty! He's not the kind of person who thinks with his lower body. He's devoted to me and would never cheat on me. You're not allowed to slander him!"
The unwavering conviction in his words was so overwhelming that even the smoking man couldn't bear to listen anymore.
He had originally intended to wait until the young man sent him a message confirming the success before showing Ye Qingyuan the surveillance video. However, looking at Ye Qingyun's trusting face, his hands began to itch, and he wanted to immediately destroy that trust.
Forget it, it's fine to show it to Ye Qingyun now. Let him see the foreplay and how his man comforts others. Wouldn't that be more exciting?
With this in mind, the man turned on the surveillance camera.
The small surveillance camera had fallen to the ground on its own, finding a good angle to capture everything in the room clearly.
The handsome man's clothes were half-undone, his eyes filled with affection. His red lips were soft and moist, beckoning one to take a bite.
Not far from him stood Gu Chenyuan, whose face was terrifyingly gloomy.
With just one glance, Ye Qingyun could tell that Gu Chenyuan was not in a good state.
Ordinary people wouldn't be able to tell, but he had witnessed a certain state of Gu Chenyuan, so he knew a little about it.
This is not the usually aloof Gu Chenyuan. That person must have drugged Gu Chenyuan with some kind of seasonal drug!
"How could he be so mean? He won't even sleep in the same bed with you?" The young man blinked his moist eyes, his cheeks slightly flushed, and looked at Gu Chenyuan with adoration, saying softly, "How about I sleep with you? I don't want any reward. You can treat me however you want. I... I like you."
The young man's face turned even redder. He looked at Gu Chenyuan shyly, his eyes full of expectation.
Ye Qingyun felt disgusted by these words. His gaze continued to search, settling on the young man's hand.
The young man held a small spray bottle in his hand; its unique design was unlike anything he had ever seen before.
Ye Qingyun's heart skipped a beat.
Out of curiosity, he once hacked into the royal high-tech supplies warehouse, and that's where he saw this thing.
What is this again...? It is...
Ye Qingyun racked her brains to recall, while on the surveillance footage, the handsome young man tentatively approached Gu Chenyuan step by step: "He looks so spoiled, he must often order you around, right? I won't do that, you can order me around to do whatever you want."
Ye Qingyun remembered.
This potion... is an emotional separation agent, or rather, a potion specifically for mistresses to take over the position.
If Gu Chenyuan has even the slightest, insignificant opinion about him, it will be magnified many times over under the influence of this drug, until that small opinion becomes a huge prejudice.
Gu Chenyuan carries that bloodline constraint, and you could say that he controls the whole person. How could he not have even the slightest hidden dissent?
Add to that the aphrodisiac or something similar that was sprinkled on the young man, and it's no wonder that the smoking man was so confident in saying that Gu Chenyuan was having sex with someone else.
"Look, he didn't even refute it, he's already smitten." The man standing next to Ye Qingyun smugly exhaled a smoke ring, wanting to see the heartbroken look on Ye Qingyun's face.
Ye Qingyun wasn't heartbroken; he was so frightened his heart felt like it was going to jump out of his throat.
She harbored deep resentment towards him, betrayed him, and had relationships with others... Under the bloodline constraint, Gu Chenyuan probably won't live much longer.
They want to kill Gu Chenyuan!
No, no, Gu Chenyuan can't die. He doesn't care about such things. In short, Gu Chenyuan can't die for such a ridiculous reason.
Ye Qingyun didn't care about anything else and tried to run away, but was stopped again.
"Why are you running? Don't you want to watch anymore?" The man smoking grabbed Ye Qingyun's shoulder, forcing him to look at the monitor. "I'm helping you see what kind of person he is. Look, how happy he is when you're not around, living a life of debauchery with others—"
Ye Qingyun didn't look. He was just about to find a way to break free when he heard the man's voice suddenly stop, as if he had seen something extremely unbelievable.
What happened? Gu Chenyuan is dead?
Ye Qingyun felt a chill run down his spine. He took a deep breath and mustered his courage to look at the surveillance camera.
The camera showed a pool of blood, but the person still standing was not that young man.
Gu Chenyuan's clothes were stained with bright red blood, his face expressionless. Thick black fog spread outwards from him, covering the sky and blurring the camera lens.
Ye Qingyun tried hard to see Gu Chenyuan's figure clearly, but not long after, Gu Chenyuan's face suddenly appeared very close to the camera.
His pure black eyes stared at the camera, his voice deep and resonant, like a dragon whose treasures had been stolen, teetering on the brink of rampage.
"I've found you."
