Chapter 36
The weird and terrifying situation at the moment could not be called romantic, but Qiao You felt that the atmosphere couldn't be better, and the words spoken by the person in his arms were so nice, so he looked at the boy with a smile, stretched out his slightly cool big hand and forcefully lifted the other's chin.
Lan Yexing stared into the other person's eyes in a daze.
That look was so dangerous and possessive, and it contained such obvious desire that Lan Yexing's breathing became disordered for a moment. He instinctively wanted to escape, but his body was pulled by another will and was fixed there, unable to move...
He clenched his lowered hand into a fist nervously: Actually, it’s nothing…
Regardless of the reason, they have already kissed twice...
Qiao You had already kissed him, and Lan Yexing was about to close his eyes when the hurried footsteps of people and dogs suddenly sounded downstairs - Lizhi, who finally smelled the unfamiliar smell on the second floor, was worried that his owner had woken up the old man, and they were all rushing here together.
Lan Yexing pushed the young man away as if awakened, and took a few steps back, stammering, "I, I'll go downstairs and stop Grandpa so he doesn't get scared!"
He already knew something about Qiao You's mental power, so he continued, "Use your mental power to send this alpha to the police! Be careful and don't let others find you!"
After saying that, he turned around and strode towards the door. His steps were even more chaotic than those of the dog and the old man who were rushing to the second floor.
Qiao You glanced at his empty arms, but did not stop him. He just stood there, watching with interest the boy's ears and neck that were particularly clear in the moonlight as he almost ran away: Really, so cute...
Qiao You's eyes followed Lan Yexing as he left the room. He delicately plucked the fingers hanging below his body, as if savoring the touch of the boy's skin. His expression was dangerous and bewitching.
It was not until Lan Yexing closed the door that the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
Then, he looked down at the unconscious alpha on the ground with pride and coldness, with his fingers bent. The man on the ground let out a cry of fear and pain in his sleep, his body bouncing unconsciously like a dying fish, and his limbs that had already recovered were broken and twisted again.
But the man was still alive, and not a drop of blood was shed.
Qiao You put on medical gloves nonchalantly, his eyes full of coldness: he would certainly not easily let go of anyone who dared to enter Lan Yexing's house and take action.
Curling his fingers again, Qiao You [withdrew] from the space. With a look of disgust and aversion on his face, he picked up the collar of the alpha who was almost no longer in human form on the ground and stepped out.
He obediently sent Alpha to the police - but he randomly dumped him in the bushes near the police station, avoiding surveillance.
This way, before being discovered the next day, this idiot will be in pain all night even if he is unconscious now.
Then, he went back to the bedroom again - Lan Yexing seemed to have successfully stopped the old man. He faintly heard his gentle voice coming from under the floor, as if he was comforting the old man in the living room.
Qiao You, who had just done something terrible, couldn't help but chuckle. He casually tore open his shirt, threw the already not-so-clean clothes into the laundry basket with disgust, and walked into the bathroom.
…
At the same time, the warm yellow lights in the living room downstairs were already on.
Lan Yexing patiently and gently comforted the old man: "Qiao You is really fine. I just went back to the room to get something and accidentally tripped, so Lizhi was awakened."
At this time, there was a faint sound of water splashing from upstairs. Lan Yexing said, "Listen, Qiao You is taking a bath. He will rest after taking a bath."
The old man looked at him quietly, neither saying whether he believed it nor whether he believed it, but he was obviously relieved when he heard the sound of water: he no longer had any hope of stopping Qiao You from doing something, as long as he knew that he was okay, he was satisfied.
So he patted the boy's shoulder lovingly and said, "I understand. Xiaoxing, I'm going back to my room. You should also go to bed early."
Lan Yexing said "hmm", stood up, gently helped the old man up, and sent him back to the second bedroom.
…
He did not go upstairs again after that. Instead, he turned off the lights in the living room, lay down on the sofa again, soothed the ball of fur curled up in his arms, and prepared to go to sleep.
The dial on the right wrist glowed quietly at this time, and the system's mechanical yet gentle voice came out: [Host, have you really decided to fall in love with Qiao You? ]
Lan Yexing's cheeks turned hot at the word "love". He couldn't help but burying the lower half of his face in the quilt, leaving only a pair of beautiful eyes with clear black and white looking at the ceiling. After a while, he said "hmm" lightly and firmly.
There is nothing to be entangled about or afraid to admit. After confirming the other person and your own feelings, falling in love with each other is the most natural thing, isn't it?
The system, which had already recovered some of its self-awareness, did not mention any illogical nonsense such as "If the important person who will come to Xingdu University in a year fails to get Qiao You, the world will be destroyed." It just said softly: "Congratulations to the host."
Although I don't understand why such cold data like this would be happy for the host, it is really great that the host can find someone he likes.
After a pause, the system continued: [If the host wants to leave Xingdu University or even Central County with Qiao You, I will try my best to help you.]
Somehow, the fuzzy data that has not yet been unlocked gave it the following logic: the person it cares about (the host) and the person it likes have confirmed their feelings for each other, which is a very good thing. The host should be with the person he likes, and then be happy.
It feels that no one in the world is more deserving of happiness than the host.
And Xingdu University is obviously not a happy place.
So, it risked having its self-awareness, which the boy had slowly regained, completely wiped out by the host, and desperately tried to block the host for two minutes, saying these words to Lan Yexing.
It called the boy's name for the first time, and the mechanical and indifferent voice contained an incredible tenderness: "Xiaoxing, if you want, you can take off the watch now."
System: [Although I am very stupid and slow, as the host helps me unlock more of myself, I can still vaguely sense that the host is controlling the outside world through a very special ability and operating logic, and in this world, that ability is only ineffective for Xiaoxing, so as long as you give up this watch now, the host will not be able to locate you, and you are free.]
System: [Even if I am not with the host later, I will use all the mental power I have so far to help you and Qiao You escape.]
Essentially, the host could have taken off the watch at any time. He was free from the beginning to the end and could have left at any time. But the host seemed to be certain that Lan Yexing would not leave, so apart from the watch, it did not make any other control actions on Lan Yexing.
But just now, the host has learned through reading its data that Qiao You has fallen in love with Lan Yexing.
The love between Qiao You and Qiao You is so important to the host and the world. It is hard to imagine what the host will do to Lan Yexing now...
In fact, it could vaguely sense that Lan Yexing had chosen to stay in that place for it, and had worked so hard to complete the mission... It had wanted to say many times that there was really no need to pay so much for a string of cold data.
But it has to admit that it really likes and is obsessed with the feeling of being worried and missed... It really, really likes its host.
So, it will never let anything hurt him now - not even the host.
The system finally said: [Xiaoxing, you don't belong here. Leave and go to a farther and freer place.]
It believes that its host will find happiness in any journey and at any destination.
There are only 10 seconds left to block.
Lan Yexing stretched out his hand and covered the dial very gently. He lowered his eyes and said softly, "Thank you so much, Xiaosong. You are neither stupid nor slow. You are a companion I can trust with my back. I really like you and appreciate you."
Lan Yexing: "But your proposal... let me reject it."
Thinking of something, his expression turned cold, and he repeated stubbornly: "I won't leave."
He would neither abandon Xiao Song nor force Qiao You to give up what he was doing and leave with him. He would stay in that university and drag the guy who played with other people's fate behind his back into the sunlight and let him receive the punishment he deserved.
As soon as Lan Yexing finished speaking, the dial made a soft "tick" sound, and the shielding time ended.
The host's new data immediately poured in. The system's consciousness was stunned for a moment before it slowly spoke: [Host, in addition to preventing the attackers from attacking Qiao You, the host has added a new task type for you...]
Lan Yexing's eyes turned cold: "You say."
System: [The first type of task is that next Monday, the new administrative teacher (alpha) who is in charge of the club activities of Xingdu University will report to the school. He is the host's person, and the host needs to meet him and assist him in completing his subsequent activities on campus.]
Lan Yexing clenched his fingers: Finally, I led one of the humans behind to the front...
The system continued: [The second type of task is that an omega exchange student with special mental power will enter your class. He is Qiao You’s childhood sweetheart...]
Lan Yexing's pupils shrank and she clenched her fingers tighter: "I want to stop him from attacking Qiao You?"
System: [No, the host requires the host to help him get close to Qiao You and reconnect their childhood relationship. After that, he has things to do.]
Lan Yexing bit her lip until it hurt: "Is he the one you said at the beginning who must get Qiao You?"
System: [Data shows, no. ]
Lan Yexing: "What is his identity and spiritual power?"
System: [His name is Yan Min. Like Su Lou, he is an orphan adopted by the royal family. Data shows that he and Qiao You attended the same elementary school and the same aristocratic public school. During that time, he sent a total of 120 love letters to Qiao You, but none of them were successfully delivered. However, it is said that although he failed to become Qiao You's lover, he became a rare good friend of Qiao You.]
[Yan Min's spiritual power is [pheromone attraction]. Another name for this spiritual power that is easier to understand is: Charm of All Men. However, data shows that his spiritual power has a huge flaw. ]
Lan Yexing: "What if I choose not to complete these two types of tasks? What will be the consequences?"
The system's tone was normal: [There are no consequences.]
Lan Yexing sighed softly: "Tell the truth."
System: […The host will use me to give the host an electric shock as punishment, but don't worry, host, I have the ability to bear it for you.] After all, data doesn't feel pain when it receives an electric shock… It should.
Lan Yexing's breathing stagnated, but he did not blame the other party for acting on his own initiative. He just said softly: "Xiao Song is really amazing."
But how could he let it bear the cost for him?
Having made up his mind, Lan Yexing closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.
…
After a long and chaotic night, Lan Yexing welcomed the holiday.
However, just as Lan Yexing expected, Qiao You was out and about for the entire two-day holiday because of the fire. Lan Yexing stayed at home to take care of the elderly and the cat and dog.
On Sunday evening, the old man and Lizhi were walking on the large lawn outside the villa. Lan Yexing was sitting on the sofa inside the villa and learned from the news on TV that Leon was in a greater desperate situation.
One of his attendants was found outside the police station with his limbs twisted. He regained consciousness after enduring great pain and confessed the hiding places of Leon's other attendants. Those attendants with extremely dangerous mental powers were caught by the police.
But whether it was because of fear or other reasons, he did not tell the police why Qiao You and himself had fallen into this situation.
Prince Leon's whereabouts are still unknown.
After Lan Yexing recorded this information, there was a slight noise coming from the door. It was Qiao You coming back.
Since they had just confirmed their relationship, Lan Yexing, who was not yet used to the change in their identities, stiffened nervously and hugged the pillow tightly in his arms.
Instead, the tall and handsome young man took off his coat and washed his hands, then sat down next to Lan Yexing as naturally as possible.
The refreshing and pleasant scent of lime invaded his nose, and Lan Yexing felt a little dizzy, and his body became even stiffer.
Qiao You subtly moved closer to Lan Yexing and deliberately touched his shoulder. The tall, dark shadow locked Lan Yexing tightly. He looked at him with a smile: "What are you doing?"
Lan Yexing blinked: "...watch the news."
Qiao You looked sideways at the boy's delicate profile, narrowed his eyes dangerously, and asked maliciously in a low voice, "Junior, why is your face so red?"
Lan Yexing was so shocked by the breath that his whole body trembled as if he had been electrocuted. His face, ear tips and neck sides became hotter and redder.
Being teased to such an extent that he was embarrassed, he just gave up. He simply stared at him, his nose almost touching his. The pair of green eyes that were only looking at him almost sucked him in.
Lan Yexing's cheeks were almost flushed, and he was almost out of breath, so he stretched out his arms in response, curled his fingers and pressed against the other's broad and powerful chest. He used his strength but could only push it away a little bit. He had no choice but to lower his head and use his soft hair to cover his feverish and useless expression at the moment, and said in annoyance: "You obviously know the reason..."
But we still have to tease and bully him like this, is that fun?
Qiao You's eyes suddenly darkened as he looked at the overly lovable boy, but he did not intend to let him go.
He stretched out his big hand to cover the boy's curled fingers against his chest, while his upper body continued to press towards the boy forcefully and oppressively. He smiled and used his other hand to pinch the boy's hot jaw, forcing him to lift up his overly cute face - almost kissable distance, but he did not kiss the boy. He just continued to stare at him maliciously with a look as if he wanted to eat him up, his voice was extremely low and hoarse: "How should I know why you are blushing, junior."
Qiao You: "Brother, tell me and teach me."
"Bang, bang, bang"
Lan Yexing felt that his whole body was gradually getting hot. His heart was about to jump out of his chest. The rapid heartbeat disturbed his ears, buzzing. He just felt dizzy and weak all over.
One of his hands was held possessively by the other party, and his chin was firmly held by that big hand. He had no way to avoid it, so he bit his lower lip and angrily scolded him: "You are such a bastard..."
Qiao You's smile deepened: "Thank you for the compliment. I am very clear about this point--"
As he spoke, he continued to lean forward, his ambiguous eyes wandering over the boy's cute moist eyes and cute lips with teeth marks. His voice was bewitching: "Xiaoxing, as long as you say you want me to kiss you, I will let you go and kiss you only, so that you can get out of your current predicament. It's a good deal, right?"
He encouraged and tempted the other party: "You understand, you didn't cherish the opportunity to escape from me that night, so we are no longer friends now, but a relationship where we can say such things and do such things."
Qiao You’s smile was beautiful and dangerous, and extremely bewitching: “Xiao Xing, tell me…”
Lan Yexing was startled by the word "friend". He suddenly remembered something, opened his eyes wider, and used all his strength to brush away the other person's hand.
He ignored the fact that his body was still limp and hot, and that the other person was still tightly holding one of his hands. He just stood up neatly, stared at the other person in the sunset, and said angrily: "We are not friends, but you and your childhood sweetheart are still friends, right?"
And why do we need him to act as a matchmaker to reconnect the relationship?
Qiao You was stunned, with a look of pure innocence and confusion on his face, but he did not let go of the boy, and even held the boy's wrist tighter with that hand.
Lan Yexing felt that the string of rationality in his mind had been melted by the scorching body temperature and could no longer be stretched. Although he clearly felt that something was wrong with his state, his mouth seemed to speak automatically - only then did he realize belatedly that his level of acceptance of the change in their identities was no less than Qiao You's.
He looked away, aggrieved, and said things he would never say to a "friend" before: "You only know how to bully me... The first time we met, you threw my breakfast..."
Qiao You's body stiffened slightly when the past was suddenly brought up.
Lan Yexing took a step and went to another room to calm down - he knew that his current state was not right.
But the next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes wide - Qiao You's big hand holding his wrist suddenly exerted force and pulled him hard onto his knees. Then, he put one hand on his thigh and the other arm firmly around his waist, pressing him into his arms.
Lan Yexing looked at him with her pupils slightly wide open, and said in shock and dissatisfaction: "Hey——"
"Xiao Xing," Qiao You held him tighter possessively. He glanced thoughtfully at the watch on the boy's right wrist, then smiled at him, looked directly into his eyes and said, "I don't know the specific content of your information, but the part about me is probably completely incorrect. For example, from the time I was born until now, I have never had the disgusting thing you mentioned."
What the hell is childhood sweethearts.
Honestly, this term is disgusting.
In fact, before college, he didn't even have friends.
Lan Yexing, who was sitting on the young man's lap, was startled.
Qiao You stretched out a big hand, gently and forcefully caressing the still hot cheek of the boy in his arms. His half-closed green eyes were full of paranoid and gentle emotions. In the center of his pupils, only the shadow of the boy was reflected. He said in a hoarse voice: "...I was wrong for throwing away your breakfast in the past. Forgive me, okay?"
Lan Yexing calmed down and felt that bringing up such old matters was a bit… useless. He coughed lightly, lowered his head and said in a low voice, “Okay.”
Qiao You used his big hand to gently stroke the boy's beautiful pink eyes, like a devil tempting humans to break the rules: "Xiaoxing, actually you can tell me directly about many things, I will help you, as long as you tell me, I can do anything for you..."
Lan Yexing subconsciously glanced at the watch on his right wrist, and a rare moment of blankness appeared on his face: "......?" Was it his illusion? Why did what Qiao You said sound so similar?
But Qiao You didn't give him a chance to react. His big hand now stroked from the corner of the boy's eyes downwards, passing through his cheeks and neck in an ambiguous manner, and finally pressed on the boy's white and fragile neck. He smiled slightly: "As for not bullying you——"
The big hand pressed hard on the boy's fragile and cute neck, and Lan Yexing was forced to bend slightly in the young man's strong embrace. He made a soft "hmm" sound and suddenly opened his eyes wide. In order to support his body, his two arms were forced to hold the young man's neck——
Qiao You had already kissed him hard on the lips.
A low, hoarse and malicious voice escaped ambiguously between the two people's lips and teeth: "... Sorry, baby, I can't do it..."
