The ring is securely worn on the base of the finger and will not easily slip off.
Ye Qingyun rubbed her eyes and touched the ring.
The ring has now become the right size, and the pain in her finger has mostly subsided. What Ye Qingyun feels most strongly now is that strange sense of being bound.
He went from being a single man to a married man in just a few days!
That's incredible.
I wonder how long it will take to install an anti-surveillance locator on the ring. If the modification takes a long time, I won't be able to wear the ring for quite some time. Given Gu Chenyuan's personality, he'll probably be secretly unhappy again.
"What are you thinking about?" Gu Chenyuan suddenly asked.
"We'll install a GPS tracker," Ye Qingyun said truthfully. "It might take some time."
Hearing this, Gu Chenyuan lowered his eyes, concealing the turbulent emotions within them.
As the excitement of marking Ye Qingyun with a ring and making her his person gradually faded, a deeper sense of panic crept into his heart.
According to custom, exchanging rings signifies that the couple is now married. To celebrate this moment, many people choose to engage in sexual intercourse to express their excitement and love for their partner.
Ye Qingyun's reaction shows that she really didn't know the customs related to wearing a ring, so she didn't want to be intimate with him.
...In Ye Qingyun's eyes, this ring was just an ordinary prop, and it was not given any more meaning.
If he hadn't taken advantage of Ye Qingyun's ignorance in this area and forced her to agree to use the ring as a locator, taking her words as a marriage proposal, he might never have had the chance to become Ye Qingyun's first officially recognized lover.
Ye Qingyun agreed to him in a daze at the time. Will she regret it when she meets a more suitable candidate in the future?
He was like an opportunistic thief who seized a place that should have belonged to someone else. So even if Ye Qingyun doesn't care about the meaning of this ring now and still treats it as just an ordinary locator, he deserves it and can't blame anyone else.
This was a principle he should have known. He should have been satisfied with the situation and then gradually eliminate everyone Ye Qingyun might have taken a liking to, making himself the only one. But...
Gu Chenyuan was suddenly gently pushed, interrupting his turbulent thoughts.
"What are you spacing out for?" Ye Qingyun nudged Gu Chenyuan, who was sitting quietly to the side, and opened her palm to him. "Give it to me."
"What?" Gu Chenyuan came back to his senses, somewhat confused.
"What else could it be?" Ye Qingyun glared at Gu Chenyuan. "Where's your ring?"
Yes, Ye Qingyun is going to have these two rings modified, and his ring should also be given to Ye Qingyun.
Gu Chenyuan took out his own ring and placed it in Ye Qingyun's palm.
After receiving the ring, Ye Qingyun did not retract her hand. Instead, she held the ring in one hand and grabbed Gu Chenyuan's ring finger with the other.
Gu Chenyuan's heart clenched suddenly; he couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Ye Qingyun... is willing to put a ring on his finger?
"Why do you look like that?" Ye Qingyun thought Gu Chenyuan was nervous, so she joked, "You don't want to? You only let me wear the ring, but you won't wear it yourself. You want to be a bachelor behind my back? Humph, you wish!"
Gu Chenyuan's ring size was quite suitable. Ye Qingyun quickly put the ring on Gu Chenyuan's finger, then stretched out her own hand, spread her five fingers and placed them on Gu Chenyuan's hand, so that the two fingers with the rings were close together.
Ye Qingyun was somewhat dazed. He had once been a reader who followed the story closely, watching Gu Chenyuan being pursued by various people every day, yet remaining indifferent, cold, and ruthless, as if he were born isolated from love.
He had also tried to come up with some ideas about how Gu Chenyuan could end his single life, but none of them came to fruition because he simply didn't think Gu Chenyuan would like anyone, nor could he imagine what Gu Chenyuan would be like when he liked someone.
But now, he knows everything.
"From now on, you're mine. If anyone else tries to seduce you, you can't pay them any attention. You can only talk to me, understand?" At this special moment, Ye Qingyun was extremely eager to take advantage of his favor, so she followed her nature and acted like a spoiled brat. "Even if the whole intergalactic says that what I'm researching is useless, you still have to say it's practical. Even if someone smarter than me appears, you can't learn from him. You can only let me teach you!"
Gu Chenyuan slowly took Ye Qingyun's hand and softly replied, "Mm."
Ye Qingyun was satisfied and responded tactfully, "I will do the same for you."
How do you treat him? You only have eyes for him, you only talk to him, and you only want to respond to him?
Gu Chenyuan did not answer. He looked at Ye Qingyun quietly for a long time, then stretched out his long arm and pulled Ye Qingyun into his arms.
It is a terrible thing that all emotions are controlled by one person, yet he enjoys it.
If this is a deception, he is willing to be deceived forever.
——————
Ye Qingyun was taken by Gu Chenyuan to a house on another planet. According to Gu Chenyuan, the environment on this planet was better, and their relationship was beginning to develop. They should go to these picturesque places more often to nurture their feelings.
Ye Qingyun had no objection. All he had to do was praise Gu Chenyuan for his good taste, and he could move in without any trouble. Gu Chenyuan would take care of everything else.
Upon arriving in his new environment, Ye Qingyun didn't rush to have fun. Instead, he planned to address the two issues that concerned him most first.
One was to install counter-surveillance locators on their rings. The other was something he was particularly concerned about: what he overheard the second princess saying that day about the secret weapon.
He couldn't sleep peacefully for a day if he didn't know what that thing was.
Hacking into the Royal System and prying into the Royal Secrets is no easy task, but for Ye Qingyun, it is not impossible.
Ye Qingyun even hacked into the Royal System once before, when he was interested in the technological level of this world.
At the time, Ye Qingyun only got a general idea of what the royal family possessed, and learned that the technology they had was far superior to what was available on the market. However, she only got a general idea and did not specifically look at the various weapons.
Ye Qingyun spent another day hacking into the Royal Data Network without leaving a trace, searching for the legendary weapon.
The search was not easy. Ye Qingyun declined Gu Chenyuan's invitations to go out for several days before finally finding a document in the highest-level database, which contained a description of a weapon suspected to be his target.
The wording used in this description is not official; rather, it has a rather smug feel to it.
[After hundreds of years, I have finally completed my ultimate weapon. With this ability to dissolve and suppress supernatural powers, no one can shake my authority anymore.]
I saw it with my own eyes. Even SS-level ability users couldn't resist and their abilities were instantly destroyed!
Heh, only a useless emperor would have his power seized by a humanoid weapon using its powerful abilities, but I can turn the tables and abolish his abilities!
Not only that, if I find him, I'll skin him alive and broadcast the execution live across the entire galaxy, so those ignorant people can see who is the most untouchable and strongest person in this galaxy. I'll make sure they never have the will to resist again, and they obediently become lowly commoners.
Just wait, once I find him, I'll eliminate this major threat and completely erase his reputation for invincibility from this generation!
Ye Qingyun became increasingly alarmed as she read on, and at the same time, she vaguely guessed who had written these words.
—He is the emperor of the empire.
Perhaps during the reigns of the previous emperors, there was already a fear of being overthrown, so they tried every means to have weapons made to ensure their position.
Now that the weapon is complete, the emperor wants to use Gu Chenyuan as an example to intimidate others.
If everything written on this document is true, and that machine can instantly destroy the abilities of even a dual S-level superhuman, then wouldn't it be able to easily kill Gu Chenyuan as well?
Ye Qingyun felt a hand patting his head, and Gu Chenyuan's voice rang in his ear: "Stop looking, it's too late, you should rest."
Ye Qingyun hurriedly closed the terminal page, grabbed Gu Chenyuan's wrist, sat still, and looked up at Gu Chenyuan.
Ye Qingyun wanted to have a serious talk with Gu Chenyuan, but Gu Chenyuan clearly misunderstood him and bent down to pick him up from the chair.
Ye Qingyun was suddenly thrown into the air, startled, and reached out to hug Gu Chenyuan's neck.
Gu Chenyuan walked forward steadily, his face expressionless, but Ye Qingyun could tell he was quite happy.
Gu Chenyuan said calmly, "You can just say it directly when you want to be cute, otherwise I sometimes can't understand what you're thinking."
Ye Qingyun: "???"
No, he wasn't being coquettish either. What exactly did Gu Chenyuan realize?
Ye Qingyun considerately did not refute. After Gu Chenyuan put him on the bed, he quickly sat up, moved to the inside, and patted the bed to indicate that Gu Chenyuan should sit down.
Perhaps because he was too proactive, Gu Chenyuan was taken aback for a moment before sitting down and taking his hand.
Ye Qingyun asked in a subtle and kind manner, "Shen Yuan, are you satisfied with your current life?"
Gu Chenyuan looked at him and responded softly.
Ye Qingyun was overjoyed: "That's great! Since you're satisfied with your current life, you must have given up your old idea of conquering the world, right? In my opinion, let's not get into anything so complicated and just retire to the mountains..."
Gu Chenyuan looked at Ye Qingyun and smiled, "It's alright, they're already fighting it."
Ye Qingyun: "...?"
Fighting? What's fighting?
He recognizes each of these individual characters, so why can't he understand them when they're put together?
