Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyun was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized what was going on.
"...You're being a pervert again, aren't you!" Ye Qingyun's face was flushed, perhaps from the heat of the bath.
Gu Chenyuan didn't deny it and replied, "Yes."
Gu Chenyuan's attitude surprised Ye Qingyun somewhat. Not long ago, they were still in the stage of holding hands, and Gu Chenyuan was quite well-behaved and would not easily do anything to embarrass her.
And now, within a single day, their relationship has progressed by leaps and bounds. Gu Chenyuan has also become somewhat impatient, as if the world were about to end tomorrow, so he wants to do everything he wants to do, everything he should do, and everything he shouldn't do today.
After a moment's thought, Ye Qingyun had a guess in her mind.
“Qingyun…” Gu Chenyuan called out, his expression revealing a hint of anxiety and bewilderment.
"What's the rush?" Ye Qingyun reached out and grabbed the edge of the bathtub. "Mind your own business. Don't try to stand out from the crowd, or I might break you by sitting on you."
Ye Qingyun didn't get up either, but instead moved forward little by little underwater. Gu Chenyuan looked at him, his eyes growing increasingly deep.
Ye Qingyun moved a short distance, and Gu Chenyuan grabbed his waist. A force came from his waist, and Gu Chenyuan pulled him to his destination, where he bumped into Gu Chenyuan.
Ye Qingyun felt a chill run down her spine.
No, their current posture is too...!
In his mind, he should be sitting sideways, not face-to-face, but now he's sitting perfectly upright!
“Qingyun…” Gu Chenyuan hugged Ye Qingyun tightly and buried his face in his shoulder.
Ye Qingyun listened to Gu Chenyuan's breathing. His breathing was not heavy, but suppressed, as if he had a thousand thoughts, or as if he was holding a treasure that he had finally regained but was about to lose again.
Ye Qingyun pursed her lips, reached out and wrapped her arms around Gu Chenyuan's neck, relaxing her body and nestling in Gu Chenyuan's embrace.
Gu Chenyuan's breathing gradually calmed down, and Ye Qingyun then said, "Where's the necklace? Did you forget to put it on me?"
“…I haven’t forgotten.” Gu Chenyuan said in a hoarse voice.
Gu Chenyuan picked up the necklace and gently put it around Ye Qingyun's neck, then tied it behind Ye Qingyun's neck.
The sparkling love stone adorns fair skin with a hint of pink. Despite being such an expensive and beautiful gemstone, it doesn't draw attention to the wearer for even a second. Instead, one is drawn to its owner.
"Is it pretty?" Ye Qingyun asked.
Gu Chenyuan met Ye Qingyun's eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Beautiful."
I don't know who started it, but their lips slowly touched, and what started as a simple touch became a deeper one.
When they parted, Ye Qingyun was already struggling to breathe. He was not only lacking oxygen, but he was also threatened by Gu Chenyuan's weapon.
"Pack your things and keep them safe," Ye Qingyun said weakly, leaning on Gu Chenyuan's shoulder.
“…I can’t accept it.” Gu Chenyuan paused for a moment, then said, “Your condition is the same as mine.”
Ye Qingyun: "..."
Ye Qingyun punched Gu Chenyuan on the shoulder: "So what if it's the same? Take it!"
Gu Chenyuan didn't accept it. He helped Ye Qingyun up, bringing their faces very close. His dark eyes looked at Ye Qingyun, devoid of their usual coldness, only filled with fervor.
Gu Chenyuan asked in a hoarse voice, "Qingyun... is it alright?"
Ye Qingyun pressed down on Gu Chenyuan's hand on his waist and refused, "No."
Although they didn't know what Gu Chenyuan meant by "okay," whether it meant mutual help and kissing each other all over, that wasn't what they should be doing right now.
He still needed to go over that matter with Gu Chenyuan; he couldn't just act rashly and impulsively. Even if he trusted Gu Chenyuan, wouldn't Gu Chenyuan, who knew everything, have some reservations?
He didn't want to be together in such an ambiguous way; he wanted a proper, comfortable relationship where both of them were happy and had no reservations before taking that step.
Ye Qingyun looked into Gu Chenyuan's eyes and asked in a clear and unambiguous voice, "You saw the things that person showed me before, right?"
Gu Chenyuan's body suddenly tensed up. In the warm water, Ye Qingyun even noticed that Gu Chenyuan's hand, which he was holding, was a little cold.
Gu Chenyuan remained silent, only looking at Ye Qingyun.
Seeing Gu Chenyuan's expression, Ye Qingyun sighed and softened her tone: "Why are you so nervous? I didn't say I didn't believe you."
Based on his reading of the entire book and his understanding of Gu Chenyuan after spending time with him, Gu Chenyuan was definitely not the type to kill someone for the sake of wealth.
In other words, the information that person provided was not entirely true.
Ye Qingyun pressed her entire upper body against Gu Chenyuan, one arm around his neck and the other gently patting his back, and whispered, "I believe you. You didn't kill him for that reason, right? Let me think, what could have made you do it... Was that person attracted by your good looks and wanted to take advantage of you?"
Ye Qingyun thought about it more and more and it seemed very possible. Gu Chenyuan was so handsome and a popular leading man, it was only natural that he would be taken advantage of by disgusting people!
Gu Chenyuan has never been lenient with those who covet his beauty; killing them is not incomprehensible, and he even supports it.
Ye Qingyun advised, "Don't keep everything bottled up inside. Tell me, okay? We'll face it together."
Gu Chenyuan closed his eyes, feeling Ye Qingyun's warmth.
Following Ye Qingyun's explanation might temporarily get us out of this crisis, but it's definitely not a good approach.
Ye Qingyun's brain is damaged. If he deceives Ye Qingyun now, she will feel disgusted with him when she regains her memory.
He later consulted the doctor, who said that some people, after regaining their memories, are unable to eliminate that aversion no matter what they do, and eventually break up with their original lovers.
He dared not lie to Ye Qingyun.
Ye Qingyun urged, "This is a fundamental question. If you don't tell me, I'm not going to talk to you anymore."
Gu Chenyuan spoke up: "...Is this the only question you're asking?"
"It depends on the situation, so speak quickly!"
Gu Chenyuan lowered his eyes. He didn't want to answer, but at this point, not answering would only make Ye Qingyun imagine the worst possible outcome.
The moment this matter was exposed, he was already in a terrible situation.
Gu Chenyuan recalled the scene at that time and finally answered: "You were with that person back then, but that person didn't appreciate you and wanted to sell you to other space pirate groups, making you their... toy."
Recalling that scene, Gu Chenyuan still felt a surge of anger rising in his chest. He had already used the most painful methods at the time, but looking back now, he still felt it wasn't enough.
Ye Qingyun knew that Gu Chenyuan was telling the truth. He really hadn't expected that Gu Chenyuan would kill that person for this reason.
Good riddance! What a scumbag! It's unbelievable that he was still by that person's side.
But does he really like that person? How could he possibly be attracted to someone with such a despicable character?
Is he blind? That can't be!
It couldn't be some stunning beauty who bewitched him, could it? No matter how beautiful she is, could she be as handsome as Gu Chenyuan?
Ye Qingyun was very confused, so he asked, "Who is that person?"
Gu Chenyuan's relaxed body tensed up again, and the hand around Ye Qingyun's waist unconsciously tightened.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Let go, let go!" Ye Qingyun struggled to get her back back.
Gu Chenyuan gently massaged Ye Qingyun's skin, but remained silent, his lips tightly pressed together, showing no intention of answering.
"You're not going to tell me, are you?" Ye Qingyun could tell, but he didn't press the issue. He then asked the next question, "Do I really like that person?"
Gu Chenyuan: "..."
Gu Chenyuan's aura instantly darkened. He massaged Ye Qingyun's waist expressionlessly, remaining silent.
But this state of mind has undoubtedly given Ye Qingyun the answer. While Ye Qingyun was surprised that she had really been blind before, she also wanted to give Gu Chenyuan some comfort, who was nervous, anxious and jealous.
"Alright, although I don't know why you wouldn't tell me before, you don't need to worry about this. Do you think I would blame you for this?" Ye Qingyun said. "Why aren't you completely relaxed yet?"
Ye Qingyun's gentle voice kept ringing in his ears, finally making Gu Chenyuan chuckle briefly.
The reason he was uneasy and dared not tell Ye Qingyun was because in the past, Ye Qingyun had truly admired Pu Tian.
After Ye Qingyun's death, he searched everywhere for anything related to Ye Qingyun, and he also found the love letters that Ye Qingyun wrote to Pu Tian in the vast sea of online letters.
Hundreds of letters, all filled with fervent admiration, were so direct in their emotions and so unrestrained in their language that they seemed unlike anything Ye Qingyun would have written.
Ye Qingyun likes Pu Tian, so much so that she is willing to change herself and compromise herself.
He's lucky now; Ye Qingyun doesn't remember anything about Pu Tian. But once Ye Qingyun regains her memory and learns the truth, whether she'll still be as unperturbed as she is now is completely unpredictable.
"What are you thinking about all day?" Ye Qingyun's verbal comforting words didn't work well, so she stopped helplessly. "Don't think of me as having such poor taste, okay?"
Ye Qingyun moved around a few times and successfully awakened the temporarily sleeping dragon.
Out of respect for Gu Chenyuan's personality—that he, like Gu Chenyuan, was not interested in the other side of the table—Ye Qingyun did not say anything that would embarrass Gu Chenyuan, but instead reached down with her hand.
Gu Chenyuan's breath hitched.
"You help me too," Ye Qingyun requested.
Gu Chenyuan did as he was told, and Ye Qingyun stepped forward and gave him a tender kiss.
"If you keep a cold face and look bitter and resentful at a time like this, instead of being happy with me, I'm really going to get angry," Ye Qingyun warned.
After saying those harsh words, Ye Qingyun continued, "This is the first time I've ever helped someone like this, and the first time I've ever sat on someone's lap like this, and you still need me to comfort you, you... um..."
Before Ye Qingyun could finish speaking, Gu Chenyuan's actions almost made him cry out, but luckily he managed to swallow his words.
"I'm sorry... I won't do it again." Gu Chenyuan kissed those moist red lips, silencing Ye Qingyun before she could utter a sound.
He was mistaken. No matter what, he should be making Qingyun happy; that's the important thing. It's really wrong to make Qingyun live in fear because of an uncertain future.
Moreover, perhaps... perhaps Ye Qingyun, considering the feelings they've built up over the years, would be willing to continue being with him, just to grumble a little?
————
In the end, Ye Qingyun's legs went weak from helping each other, and Gu Chenyuan had to carry her away.
That's terrifying, absolutely terrifying! No wonder he's the protagonist; his skills in every aspect are so outstanding that even I have to admit defeat.
He was clearly trying his best to help Gu Chenyuan, so why did Gu Chenyuan only ejaculate for the first time after he was already exhausted? He had read a sex education textbook; he had a perfectly normal physical condition and ejaculation time!
Comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable; that's absolutely true.
Looking back now, I'm suddenly somewhat glad that they shared the same traits, otherwise they would have died in bed together.
Thank goodness.
————
Everything returned to calm, and Ye Qingyun was happily in love, already having plans for the future of him and Gu Chenyuan.
He and Gu Chenyuan smoothly developed their relationship until they finally got married.
He would start learning about this world from scratch, hoping to discover something useful that would make him and Gu Chenyuan more popular with the public.
Since waking up this time, Ye Qingyun has not had a terminal with her. It's fine on ordinary days, but when she needs to look up information, it's very difficult to do without a terminal.
Ye Qingyun asked the butler to buy him a new one. Not long after, the butler delivered the terminal to him and said cheerfully, "Your terminal and the leader's terminal are bound together with couple permissions. You can share some rights with him. The leader tells you to buy whatever you want without any worries."
"Thank you." Ye Qingyun smiled as she accepted the terminal and put it on her wrist.
The butler bowed to him and then turned to leave. As soon as the butler left, Ye Qingyun immediately opened his terminal and checked the balance in the card that belonged to him and Gu Chenyuan.
Ye Qingyun: "...Wow!"
So many zeros! Is this what it feels like to hook up with a rich and powerful CEO in novels?! So exhilarating and exciting!
No, no, he's the number one person to hook up with in the interstellar world, even more powerful than the CEO!
Ye Qingyun counted the zeros a few times, even making a rare mistake in the middle. After finishing, she happily closed the balance interface and planned to go to the interstellar network to check.
Ye Qingyun logged onto the navigation interface, but instead of rushing to look up information, she browsed around looking at things that interested her.
The people in this interstellar space really enjoy competitions; they can bring up anything to compare. Ye Qingyun first clicked on the interstellar bragging competition website.
Upon entering, Ye Qingyun saw numerous videos and photos, with many netizens sharing their most expensive or valuable items, and many people commenting on and judging the sharers.
Among these, the easiest to get likes are huge bank deposits, or jewelry and antiques that everyone is familiar with.
Ye Qingyun wasn't so bored as to show off Gu Chenyuan's bank account balance, but he was indeed really captivated by it. On a whim, he took a picture of the sofa, uploaded it online, and captioned it: 【The sofa where the leader hugged me and lay down! Precious! o((*^▽^*))o】
Ye Qingyun deliberately used this tone because she wanted to make a joke and didn't expect anyone to take it seriously. She happily refreshed the comments.
This photo stood out so much among the many glittering treasures that it quickly garnered numerous comments shortly after being posted.
"...Please don't just eat and drink, eat some more food."
If you had even a single peanut, you wouldn't be this drunk.
[Brother, are you new to surfing the internet? Don't you know you can't spread rumors about our leader online?]
[You're done for, little bro. When the interstellar police come to arrest you, remember not to try to be cute. Cuteness won't work. Explain yourself properly, and start afresh after the modification is over!]
[Heh, you dare to covet the leader? I've reported you. You're welcome.]
Ye Qingyun: "...?"
He really just learned how to surf the internet; he was just joking. Will he get arrested for that? Probably not.
Hmph, if you want to arrest him, then arrest him right in front of Gu Chenyuan. Does he think he's afraid?
Thinking this, Ye Qingyun sent another message:
[Thank you everyone for your concern, I won't get caught. I'm going to stop now, Brother Chenyuan is already asleep in my arms, I can't wake him. (￣y▽￣)~*]
A soft laugh rang in his ears, and Ye Qingyun turned his head to see Gu Chenyuan standing beside him.
At noon, Gu Chenyuan came back and took a nap with him.
"What, you actually have to come and arrest me personally?" Ye Qingyun asked, feigning surprise.
Gu Chenyuan smiled and picked him up, placing him on the sofa.
Gu Chenyuan kissed the corner of his mouth and smiled, "Yes, unless you call me brother and then fall asleep in my arms, I will arrest you on the spot and punish you."
punish?
Ye Qingyun looked down and immediately understood what the punishment would be. He muttered "rogue," rested his head on Gu Chenyuan's shoulder, closed his eyes, and drifted into a sweet dream.
