Chapter 47 Breaking the Rules: Tying us together about one meter apart is safe...
What exactly is going on with the two souls?
Does Fu Yanli really have two souls?
Xu Wenci was pondering this question when he caught sight of Yi Lou sitting opposite him out of the corner of his eye. He smiled, stopped peeling the apple, and looked up: "What brings you here?"
Is there something on Gu Pei's side that he needs to be aware of?
"I came to see if Fu Yanli is dead or not." Yi Lou smiled, but then turned to look at him, "I heard that the Fu family is having a family gathering next week. As Fu Yanli's boyfriend... are you going?"
“Go ahead,” Xu Wenci nodded matter-of-factly. “Fu Yanli will definitely take me.”
“But…” Yi Lou clicked his tongue twice, looking Xu Wenci up and down.
Xu Wenci felt that Yi Lou had a split personality, changing his attitude constantly.
"Fu Yanli's mother doesn't like me, does she? She doesn't go to the Fu family." Xu Wenci raised an eyebrow, forcing himself to return to the question itself. A strange light suddenly flashed in his amber eyes. "But this is something Fu Yanli should be thinking about."
“Hey,” Fu Yanli, who had been eavesdropping silently, said speechlessly, “I’m right in front of you, didn’t you see me at all?”
"Sorry," Yi Lou chuckled slyly, mocking Fu Yanli, "Didn't you have amnesia? How do you still remember me?"
nonsense.
Fu Yanli rolled his eyes.
He hasn't lost all his memories; he just can't remember what happened recently.
“Then you must bring Xu Wenci to your family’s banquet,” Yi Lou raised an eyebrow. “By the way, don’t even think about making a move on Yi Pei.”
Fu Yanli was even more speechless: "No way."
Just tell Yi Pei not to make a move on Xu Wenci.
Thinking this, Fu Yanli beckoned to Yi Lou. When Yi Lou approached him with a bewildered look, he whispered in Yi Lou's ear, "Yi Lou, don't you think Xu Wenci and Yi Pei seem to have a bit of a thing for each other...?"
Yi Pei frowned. Was Fu Yanli thinking about these things all day while lying in his hospital bed?
"Impossible..." Yi Lou gritted his teeth, wishing he could tear Fu Yanli's head off. "Isn't Xu Wenci your partner?"
Fu Yanli: That goes without saying!
"I mean, you should keep a close eye on Yi Pei's movements." Fu Yanli had teased him enough and decided to explain.
"Are you crazy?!" Yi Pei suddenly smiled. "You want me to spy on Yi Pei? I don't have time!"
It seems Fu Yanli really has amnesia; he doesn't even know that the two of them had argued about monitoring Yi Pei before.
Fu Yanli blinked.
Something's not right.
Given Yi Lou's personality, even if his younger brother, whose fate was unknown, suddenly returned from abroad, Yi Lou couldn't possibly not pay attention to his brother's physical movements, right?
Xu Wenci rolled his eyes as he watched the two childish people seemingly bickering.
The two argued for more than ten minutes, but in the end, no one could win.
Xu Wenci continued peeling the apple. After he finished, he saw that the two people were still arguing, so he stuffed the apple into his mouth.
The CEO is different; he even eats apples with the peel on.
He is a man who would bow down to money.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have peeled the apple to spare Fu Yanli from punishment.
"The CEO's Code of Conduct includes monthly tasks?!?"
A thunderclap from a clear sky.
Xu Wenci covered his ears, but Bangbang couldn't help giving Fu Yanli two punches.
Fu Yanli lay on the hospital bed, clutching his stomach and pretending to whimper.
He had never heard Fu Yanli mention it.
Xu Wenci said it was none of his business, but Fu Yanli insisted on dragging him along to watch the mission.
What does it have to do with him?
"Ten thousand, ten thousand," Fu Yanli pleaded, clenching his fists. "Please, please..."
Xu Wenci remained unmoved.
"I'll tell you about my mom's side of things."
"Deal." Xu Wenci turned around.
Fu Yanli: Mom, you have to make a sacrifice first.
That's how it is.
So the task is not yet complete.
After finishing his apple, Xu Wenci started peeling it.
He was very good at this kind of thing, after all, he had often taken care of his grandmother before.
"Xu Wenci, I've sent Yi Lou away," Fu Yanli called out to Xu Wenci in a low voice. Only after Xu Wenci turned around impatiently did he quiet down for a while, then slowly got off the bed and sat opposite Xu Wenci.
"What are you talking about?" Xu Wenci handed a peeled apple to Fu Yanli and asked casually.
Fu Yanli shook his head in dissatisfaction. "No, you have to feed me. That's what the mission says."
This month's task: Eat fruit (feed) with your destined soulmate.
Xu Wenci smiled and nodded.
Of course.
The task must be completed.
You must never try to take shortcuts or cheat.
Then, Xu Wenci stood up and stuffed the whole apple directly into Fu Yanli's mouth.
Okay, I've fed you.
Is the mission complete?
"The mission is not complete." Fu Yanli took the apple, feeling helpless.
Xu Wenci lowered his eyes, and a few drops of pale water seemed to fall into his amber eyes, the light seemingly condensing into a stream.
From Fu Yanli's perspective, Xu Wenci seemed to be seriously considering how to complete the mission.
But Xu Wenci felt that he didn't need to feel so aggrieved because of that 100,000 yuan.
Anyway, he's not the one who's being punished.
Seeing Fu Yanli staring blankly at the apple in thought, Xu Wenci sighed.
Why did he agree to such a boring and meaningless task in the first place...?
Although that's what I was thinking, my hands moved uncontrollably to cut the apple into small pieces.
By the time he realized what was happening, everything had already been neatly arranged.
Turning his head slightly, he saw Fu Yanli's expectant expression and pointed to his mouth.
Xu Wenci looked at Fu Yanli's smug expression and fell silent.
Fu Yanli's behavior is completely contrary to those thousand-plus pages of rules, so why hasn't the "CEO's Code" punished him yet...?
Xu Wenci picked up a piece of apple with his fork, his face full of sorrow.
Neither of them dared to look at the other.
It was because Fu Yanli's expression was too serious that Xu Wenci was afraid that if he looked into Fu Yanli's eyes, he would be unable to resist throwing a couple more punches.
Fu Yanli ate without any restraint, but what he said after finishing made Xu Wenci furious: "It's still not finished."
Xu Wenci: ...
"Does it have to be like in the novels?" Fu Yanli stroked his chin, frowning slightly. "Try sitting on my lap?"
Xu Wenci's expression first changed from disbelief to indescribable, and finally settled on ruthlessness.
He refused.
He couldn't imagine Fu Yanli pulling him into his arms, feeding him an apple, and then raising an eyebrow at him with a narcissistic look.
Compared to that, he didn't find Fu Yanli's silly look so unacceptable.
In fact, Fu Yanli could not have imagined that Xu Wenci would nestle gently in his arms, his amber eyes filled with tenderness, his pupils reflecting only his image. Xu Wenci would even speak to him softly and feed him apples with fists that could kill him.
This behavior is similar to a domineering dinosaur's large claws pinching a flower.
It's really creepy, okay?
Xu Wenci did not take any action.
His brows furrowed even deeper. "How about you try feeding me?"
He couldn't accept sitting in Fu Yanli's lap.
He actually can't accept being fed by someone.
Overlooking the city's night view, Mo Longyang sighed. All of this belonged to him, but no one shared this glory with him, nor did anyone share this loneliness with him.
Then one day, she appeared.
Fu Yanli blinked; why was his novel reading software suddenly making a sound?
"How many novels have you read?" Xu Wenci asked, tilting his head.
Fu Yanli proudly raised his head, "No more, no less, probably over a thousand books."
Is there a solution to this problem?
Fu Yanli counted on his fingers, as if reciting a familiar story: "For example, feeding each other a couple of bites, kissing each other a couple of times, and for example, taking a nap together..."
Xu Wenci: Was it normal sleep?
“For example,” Fu Yanli said, even more excitedly, “you could try confessing your feelings to me?”
What will happen if I don't do it?
“I don’t know either,” Fu Yanli clicked his tongue. “The punishments are just a few different kinds.”
“Fu Yanli, I have a question for you,” Xu Wenci suddenly looked up, “How do you know about the punishment for breaking the rules…”
"We'll try them one by one." Fu Yanli didn't understand why Xu Wenci suddenly asked this question, but since Xu Wenci rarely asked, he answered without thinking.
"Do you want to try this punishment?"
Fu Yanli: Listen to this, is this even human language?
The punishment this time is at least electric shock or sudden loss of consciousness; in more serious cases, it could even result in death by electrocution.
Fu Yanli closed his eyes with a look of resignation and nodded: "Then let's give it a try."
"After meeting her, Mo Longyang was amazed by her intelligence countless times. For example, she could make scallion oil noodles that he had never tasted before, and the taste was unforgettable for him."
Xu Wenci's train of thought was interrupted, and he glared fiercely at Fu Yanli.
Fu Yanli raised his hands and smiled innocently.
He didn't do anything.
The phone is still in the hospital bed.
He can't control it.
One day later.
Fu Yanli stood in front of the mirror, staring intently at his unharmed body. He turned around, and he was still unharmed.
Wasn't the task not completed?
Why was there no punishment?
I don't understand.
The result was the next second.
Xu Wenci suddenly appeared in front of him.
Then, they were only about a meter away from him.
Xu Wenci seemed a little confused as well.
His amber eyes held an anger that Fu Yanli was very familiar with, and Fu Yanli subconsciously lowered his head.
I can't see it, I can't see it.
If you can't see it, it's not dangerous.
He tried to leave, but found he couldn't move an inch.
He could only move a little bit when his body was slightly tilted towards Fu Yanli.
He struggled again, but found that he didn't budge.
Take a step back, and all actions become unrestricted.
He and Fu Yanli...are they tied together?
etc……
etc……
Is this punishment?
If it's a punishment...
This is so weird...
"Is this punishment?!" Fu Yanli quickly realized.
She hopped and skipped around on her injured leg, pretending to be sad as she walked outside. The moment she was restrained, she covered her face with her hands, seemingly very distressed.
But Xu Wenci noticed that Fu Yanli's purple pupils seemed to be flashing with excitement.
Moreover, he could see the upturned corners of Fu Yanli's mouth through the gaps in Fu Yanli's face.
This is insane...
Xu Wenci silently complained.
What if it continues like this?
He couldn't control the panic in his heart. What if someone suddenly pushed the door open and came in, or a nurse suddenly made her rounds...?
He struggled a couple more times, successfully exhausting himself.
No progress has been made.
He sat down on the hospital bed.
Fu Yanli had already become bedridden. He spent all his time in the hospital bed, and if he stayed in bed any longer, the hospital would have to investigate whether he had developed a laziness disorder.
"Xu Wenci... why did the punishment suddenly change?" Fu Yanli was initially happy, but after a few seconds, he was replaced by frustration.
Xu Wenci wanted to ask this question even more.
Why was the previous punishment about Fu Yanli, but the current punishment involves him?
Could it be... that Fu Yanli used some kind of witchcraft?
After thinking it over, he felt that this was very likely...
Because Fu Yanli possessed rules that Fu Yanli lacked.
Sometimes, rules are not meant to be restrictions.
It could even be an aid.
And Fu Yanli was hiding more than one thing from him.
Fu Yanli, completely unaware that he had been thoroughly scolded, frowned. In this world, what is truly speechless is to add another punishment on top of an existing one.
hehe.
That's his current state.
The excruciating pain in his calf caused him to break out in a cold sweat, completely unprepared.
It felt like the pain of newborn flesh and blood, with a subtle itch wrapped in the intense pain.
Why is my calf starting to hurt again?
However, it hurt less than last time.
It seems that staying in bed to recover these past few days has been a wise decision.
He suddenly remembered that sentence in the rules:
"When you begin to form a bond with him, his pain becomes part of your pain as well."
yes.
When they meet as the script suggests, everything unfolds in secret.
It struck them right in the moment they came to their senses.
Xu Wenci might not even know that he injured his calf, or even that there was a bond between them.
And that pain was transmitted to him.
But that kind of pain comes with conditions.
The timing of events stipulated in the rules is not random, so what exactly caused Xu Wenci's pain to be transferred to him?
Xu Wenci seemed oblivious to this suffering.
Now, his relationship with Xu Wenci is like two suspicious and petty people sharing an umbrella, always suspecting that the other is getting more shelter from the rain.
It was raining heavily.
Even if someone is holding an umbrella, they will inevitably get wet.
Therefore, this suspicion deepened.
So deep that when each drop of rain falls on you, the first thing you think of isn't the coolness, but the fact that the other person might have gotten even less rain.
Every time the other person says with a smile, "Don't tire yourself out, let me hold the umbrella," they secretly tilt the umbrella towards themselves the moment they take it.
