Chapter 42



Ye Qingyun looked away, continuing to pretend to look at the jewelry, while pondering what she had just heard.

The second princess is so fearless. What kind of technology is she talking about? Is that technology so powerful that it gives her the confidence to kill the legendary humanoid weapon?

As Ye Qingyun pondered, he caught a glimpse of the second princess walking towards him step by step, finally stopping beside him.

"You like it?" The second princess tapped her finger on the counter, her expression arrogant. "Follow me, and all of these will be yours."

Ye Qingyun was taken aback, but quickly realized what she meant and refused without hesitation: "I don't like it. I'm just looking around. Besides, if I like anything, my partner will give it to me. I have something else to attend to, so please excuse me."

After saying that, Ye Qingyun was about to lift her foot and leave.

Since he's said that, even if the princess really has feelings for him, she should give up because he's too clueless about romance, right?

To Ye Qingyun's surprise, the Second Princess chuckled and clapped her hands. Several people who had been scattered around looking at the jewelry immediately surrounded her, blocking her way out.

These people were all subordinates of the Second Princess!

What are they trying to do? Are they trying to abduct a man in broad daylight?

Ye Qingyun frowned.

The second princess paid no attention to the displeasure on Ye Qingyun's face, and instead asked, "Want to leave? Haven't you heard of my name?"

Ye Qingyun had indeed never heard of the Second Princess's name. After all, the original work was a BL novel, which focused on the grudges and love affairs between various men and Gu Chenyuan, and there was not much description of women.

The second princess didn't care and looked at Ye Qingyun with a smile: "There are only men I've had my fill of and let go, not men who can refuse me. Once I've set my sights on someone, none of them can escape my grasp. If you behave well, I'll let you enjoy a lifetime of wealth and luxury, but if you insist on refusing to listen to reason and choosing the hard way... don't blame me for using force."

The man following the Second Princess was filled with jealousy towards Ye Qingyun, but he still dutifully flattered the princess: "How dare you! This is the esteemed Second Princess! It's your honor that she has taken a liking to you. Stop pretending to be innocent and aloof, or you'll regret it!"

Are you crazy? Are you acting in a play?

Ye Qingyun touched the supernatural ring belonging to Gu Chenyuan on her finger, frowned, and refused again: "I'm sorry, I already have a lover, and I like him very much. Please don't make jokes about me like this."

"A lover?" The second princess's smile deepened. "It would be even better if you had a lover. I love watching these kinds of farewell dramas. Where is your lover? Tell him to come out. He wouldn't have run away in fear just because he saw me, would he?"

Ye Qingyun frowned even more, took two steps back, and tried to get as far away from the second princess as possible.

Ye Qingyun has now realized that everyone in the royal family is such an arrogant and conceited lunatic. Perhaps it's because they've been in the privileged class for too long and have been in control of various researches that are hundreds of years ahead of the current technological environment, that they no longer regard the royal family and people outside the royal family as the same species. In their eyes, everyone else is just a tool for entertainment.

Their thought process was completely beyond Ye Qingyun's comprehension and acceptance.

Ye Qingyun touched the ring on her hand again. The supernatural power on the ring had begun to overflow, and its temperature had turned icy cold.

Ye Qingyun knew what this meant.

Gu Chenyuan saw all of this and had already decided to kill him.

When Ye Qingyun saw the Second Princess looking behind him, his eyes lit up again. Realizing something, he turned around as well.

Gu Chenyuan strode over from a distance, his face terribly gloomy.

“That person is quite good-looking, but his expression is too fierce. You are more in line with my aesthetic.” The Second Princess looked at Gu Chenyuan, then at Ye Qingyun, and finally commented, “You can be my empress. I am willing to let you serve me every day now.”

The second princess's gaze swept over Ye Qingyun's entire body, taking in his swan-like, graceful shoulders and neck, his broad shoulders and slender waist that appeared even in loose clothing, and his skin so white it was almost translucent, as if a gentle kiss could leave a mark. She licked her lips with great interest: "You'll fall in love with me. I'll make you feel incredibly good. Every inch of your body will be in my hands, and I can make you feel so good you'll lose yourself—"

Before the second princess could finish speaking, a wisp of black mist sealed her mouth.

When Ye Qingyun heard what the Second Princess said, she knew something was wrong. Given Gu Chenyuan's personality, if he heard someone think that way about him, he would probably kill the person who said it immediately.

As expected, part of the black mist sealing the second princess's mouth spread upwards, trying to cover her nose, while the other part spread downwards, forming the shape of five fingers, seemingly trying to strangle the second princess's neck.

The second princess was terrified and tried to use her special ability to remove the layer of black mist. However, her ability was instantly unable to withstand the black mist and dissipated.

The Second Princess's subordinates rushed to her aid, but like the Princess herself, their powers dissipated upon contact. The Second Princess, her face turning pale, fumbled for the necklace around her neck, grabbed the button, and the necklace immediately emitted a red light to protect its owner, preventing Gu Chenyuan's power from advancing further and giving the Second Princess a chance to catch her breath.

Seeing that things were going badly, Ye Qingyun quickly turned around, ran two steps forward, and grabbed Gu Chenyuan's hand: "Chenyuan, calm down!"

Ye Qingyun was still thinking about the high-tech product that the Second Princess had mentioned not long ago, which could easily take the lives of humanoid weapons.

He didn't know if it was true, but if it was, once the second princess died, the royal family would use that thing against Gu Chenyuan, even if it was just for their own dignity, until Gu Chenyuan died.

Gu Chenyuan glanced at Ye Qingyun, his dark eyes swirling with emotions.

Ye Qingyun hugged Gu Chenyuan and comforted him in a soft voice, "You still believe what she said? How could I like her? She's not as pretty as you, not as capable as you, not as considerate as you, and her skills aren't as good as yours. I'm not blind, don't be angry about this."

Gu Chenyuan remained silent, his chill subsided slightly, but his killing intent remained undiminished.

For Gu Chenyuan, anyone who dares to covet Ye Qingyun and directly cause her trouble will only have one fate.

Seeing this, Ye Qingyun could only whisper the identity of the Second Princess and anxiously advised again, "Let's leave first and not alert the enemy. If you really want to make a move, wait until you are fully prepared before you act. Can you bear to let me become a widow at such a young age?"

A member of the royal family?

Gu Chenyuan frowned, rationally knowing that Ye Qingyun was right.

He should have made preparations in secret and waited for the right moment to uproot this rotten tree, instead of killing this person now and attracting the attention of the royal family.

The necklace worn by the second princess, somehow imbued with something, was able to withstand attacks from abilities below level 3S and even hold off a level 3S ability for a period of time while awaiting rescue.

In that short period of struggle, he could have actually broken through the necklace's barrier and taken the woman's life, but doing so would have been far too shocking.

Gu Chenyuan felt his neck being embraced, and heard Ye Qingyun's somewhat unconvincing sobs, which made him sigh softly.

Very well, let this person live a little longer... Once he is fully prepared, he will eradicate these people completely.

————

Ye Qingyun was secretly led away by Gu Chenyuan. He didn't know how Gu Chenyuan did it. With so many people, it seemed that no one could catch them or keep up with their pace.

And the net that was supposedly used to capture them and prevent them from escaping was easily destroyed by Gu Chenyuan.

Ye Qingyun followed Gu Chenyuan onto the spaceship and left the planet.

The view outside the spaceship window gradually turned into the pitch-black universe. No one could catch up with them, and Ye Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, he needs to hack into the royal family's various data to find the legendary weapon that can defeat Gu Chenyuan.

This is a huge project, and it might not be possible to find it in a short time. Therefore, Ye Qingyun was not in a hurry, but instead chose to show concern for Gu Chenyuan beside her.

Ye Qingyun lifted Gu Chenyuan's clothes to touch him, and after confirming that Gu Chenyuan was unharmed, she helped him put his clothes back down and casually touched Gu Chenyuan's abs a couple more times.

Gu Chenyuan let him touch him all over, and after the inspection was finished, he reached into his pocket and took out something.

Small, round, with a simple and unpretentious design—it's the ring I bought before.

"Qingyun," Gu Chenyuan said.

Gu Chenyuan lowered his dark eyelashes, looked at the small ring in his hand, and said softly, "Would you like me to put it on you myself?"

There are too many people eyeing Ye Qingyun. So many that if he's not careful, some fool will sneak up on him.

Ye Qingyun should be covered in his kiss marks, even on her fingertips, so that people know she is taken and cannot be touched casually.

But Ye Qingyun would definitely not agree, so he could only choose another approach.

"Would you like to wear it?" Gu Chenyuan said.

She wore a ring that matched his and became his only partner.

Ye Qingyun didn't speak, but extended her hand.

Because Gu Chenyuan was in such a hurry to come out, the ring wasn't actually fully modified. However, it was coated with a special material that would allow the ring to adjust to the correct finger size after ten seconds of wearing, so there was no need to worry about it not fitting properly in the end.

However, if the ring is smaller than your finger during the initial wearing process, it will be more difficult to wear, which is why the ring needs to be adjusted by staff.

The ring that belonged to Ye Qingyun was completely unmodified; only her name was engraved on it, so it was small, even smaller than Ye Qingyun's finger.

Gu Chenyuan grasped Ye Qingyun's hand, looked into her eyes, and said slowly, "It will hurt a little, but bear with it, it will be over soon."

Ye Qingyun thought to herself, "It's just wearing a ring. How much pain could it cause? The pain will only last for ten seconds, and then the ring will be the right size." So she calmly nodded.

With an almost imperceptible fervor in his eyes, Gu Chenyuan held Ye Qingyun's fingertips and slowly inserted the ring.

The ring slipped smoothly onto her finger, its silvery white color contrasting beautifully against Ye Qingyun's fair hand.

The ring went in easily at first, but unsurprisingly, it got stuck when it reached the thickest knuckle of the finger.

“Qingyun,” Gu Chenyuan stopped, “bear with it.”

"Just bear with it..." Ye Qingyun muttered, "Hurry up, I'm not in pain, stop dawdling."

Gu Chenyuan took a deep breath and continued forward.

The feeling of forcibly putting on the ring was unpleasant; the bones ached from the friction, and the two ill-fitting objects tormented each other, causing Ye Qingyun's hands to tremble.

Ye Qingyun was in so much pain that she instinctively tried to pull her hand back, but Gu Chenyuan held it tightly, preventing her from escaping.

"No more..." Ye Qingyun closed her eyes, looking aggrieved and wanting to back down, "Next time... let's try again next time..."

Ye Qingyun heard Gu Chenyuan sigh, and then a familiar scent approached, kissing his lips and stealing his breath.

Ye Qingyun opened her mouth, momentarily lost in a passionate kiss.

Just as Ye Qingyun was lost in her own world, she suddenly felt a pain in her finger as something slid into the base of her finger.

After a long while, the kiss finally ended, and Ye Qingyun and Gu Chenyuan separated.

"You can do it," Gu Chenyuan kissed Ye Qingyun's lips, took her hand, and said gently, "Look, it's all in now, isn't it?"
