Yu Xi was familiar with this palace, as was Ren Shuhan.

But from the beginning, Ren Shuhan took the wrong path three times in a row despite following the “enemy” lolita’s words when she found Yu Xi’s whereabouts. He even brushed past him once.

No one dared to ask, only Mingyue was puzzled, “Is something wrong with his state this game?”

The other side’s lolita ID guiding them had a string of garbled characters, and Jiang Qingyue could only vaguely make out the word “angel,” thanking and apologizing to her on behalf of Ren Shuhan, “Sorry, this map is too big.”

“It’s okay,” the angel smiled, “Unpronounceable Buddha doesn’t make mistakes, blame me for speaking too slowly.”

Ren Shuhan’s teammates couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

“Just now, he rushed too quickly and didn’t have time to pick up the jellyfish props,” the angel volunteered to activate the tracking skill for them, “This time, it will definitely be fine.”

A small group of jellyfish dispersed and flew in three directions.

“Oh,” Mingyue explained to Jiang Qingyue, who was puzzled, “Yu Xi activated the [Scent Detection] skill, truly deserving of being the top AD, his sense of smell is really keen.”

Mainly because Yu Xi understood the angel.

They used to play together frequently, and they were well aware of each other’s habits in using skills. In terms of awareness, Yu Xi was even better, so he could surpass the angel in the overall rankings and predict the timing of the angel’s skill activation earlier, attempting to interfere with it.

“Split up into three paths,” Ren Shuhan led Jiang Qingyue down the middle path, “You guys can split up as you like.”

Naturally, the enemies and allies split into two teams, one on top and one on the bottom, leaving the middle two for the great god and his wife to have their own world.

Jiang Qingyue was led by Ren Shuhan, strolling leisurely. He didn’t know why, but because of his trust in him, he didn’t urge him. Instead, he opened the system interface, found the private chat option, and whispered to him.

“Aren’t you worried? What if Yu Xi finds out you’ve bound to him? Will he come up with other countermeasures?”

Ren Shuhan looked down at him, obviously distracted.

“Don’t worry, he doesn’t have the energy to think about that now. Once this game is over, I’ll go to the store and replenish items. I won’t let him get away.”

Jiang Qingyue followed his gaze and found him looking at his dress.

Although both were adorned with sparkling scales, this one was different from the one he wore in the previous world. The previous one was a deep V-backless fishtail dress, matched with crystal shoes, while this one was matched with a fishtail.

The front had a straight neckline, and the back was also hollowed out, but there were two crossed straps, tied into a bow above the coccyx, hanging behind him swaying with the waves like an extra tail, with only a small wave edge at the waist, boldly exposing the beautiful blue fishtail.

Hmm… because it was too familiar, Jiang Qingyue knew what he was thinking even with his eyes closed.

“Does it look good?”

The straps on the back.

Ren Shuhan coughed lightly and looked away.

Jiang Qingyue: Ah, it’s too easy to understand. He really likes straps…

Although he didn’t have any feelings for these strange elements, he loved to see him enjoying them. Jiang Qingyue was used to spoiling him like this, especially loved to take the initiative to provide him with all kinds of unexpected “services”, making him happy while also seeing him blush, achieving double happiness.

“After this game, you can use it to bind my hands.”

Taking advantage of the private chat function, Jiang Qingyue said completely serious but non-serious words to Ren Shuhan, making his ears slightly red.

“Let’s focus on the game for now,” Jiang Qingyue said seriously again, “Aren’t you in a hurry? You haven’t found any weapons yet.”

The system’s default equipment given to Jiang Qingyue was a gem necklace, and at the beginning of the game, Jiang Qingyue gave his beloved boyfriend a lucky buff. But strangely, it seemed to have no effect, the enemies weren’t caught, and no weapons were found.

“Don’t worry.”

Ren Shuhan slowed down more and more as they walked, sometimes stopping suddenly and turning back.

“Is he nearby?” Jiang Qingyue asked, “Should we call his teammates to take a look?”

“We don’t need to,” Ren Shuhan hesitated, “I should be able to sense it.”

Yu Xi was right in front of him.

Even though he was invisible, Ren Shuhan’s sensitivity was just too strong. Yu Xi didn’t dare to move, not even daring to breathe loudly, afraid of causing ripples in the water and being detected by him.

Although he was already in pain and extremely nervous, Yu Xi had never been so embarrassed in his life.

The fear of facing death could drive people crazy.

ADs rarely experienced this because battles usually ended quickly, with life and death hanging by a thread, not dragging on like this.

Just as Yu Xi thought Ren Shuhan had left, wanting to take a breath and rest, the opponent immediately returned, observing the situation around him while chatting with Jiang Qingyue affectionately. Yu Xi suspected that he was really going crazy.

Fortunately, Ren Shuhan said, “He shouldn’t be here,” and once again brushed past him.

“Should we still call his teammates to take a look?” Jiang Qingyue suggested again, “It’s been over twenty minutes already. If we still can’t find him…”

At this point, Jiang Qingyue suddenly stopped.

When 30 minutes passed, Yu Xi would definitely initiate a surrender, but surrender required the agreement of at least three teammates. Among Yu Xi’s other three teammates, would two of them agree to surrender for him?

Ren Shuhan had already said that he wanted to seek revenge privately. Would Yu Xi’s teammates offend the top-ranked player for him?

Jiang Qingyue suddenly realized something.

“Are you doing this on purpose?”

Ren Shuhan admitted straightforwardly, “Yes.”

“Just now,” Jiang Qingyue said, somewhat surprised, “You knew he was there, right?”

Jiang Qingyue couldn’t help but look back.

Not far behind him, Yu Xi was almost out of breath: why did he turn back again?

“Yes.” Ren Shuhan touched his wife’s head.

“Are you scaring him?” Jiang Qingyue was visibly conflicted, “Is it necessary to do this? Why not just kill him directly?”

The experience of this game felt very real, and Jiang Qingyue had experienced it.

“It’s no good.”

Ren Shuhan usually went along with him and hardly ever said such words to him.

Jiang Qingyue didn’t feel disappointed but puzzled, “Why?”

Even though he didn’t have memories of his previous life, was it necessary to hold such a grudge?

“Because he bullied my wife.” Ren Shuhan said coldly, “I think you misunderstand me a bit. Instead of letting it go, let me explain—I think you’ve always thought I’m perfect, saying I’m kind, likable, but I’m not actually like that. I’m selfish, impulsive. If he wants to kill you, I’ll kill him.”

Jiang Qingyue was a bit stunned and the first thing he said in response was, “That’s not true. Even if you want to kill him, I still like you. Don’t misunderstand. No matter how you treat him, I still like you.”

Ren Shuhan was dumbfounded by several consecutive confessions, “…”

Jiang Qingyue lowered his head belatedly, saying nothing.

“Cough cough…” Ren Shuhan cleared his throat for a while before saying, “And although I’ve lost my original memories, I remember the things in this world, I remember when I first came here, I really hated Yu Xi.”

Jiang Qingyue nodded slowly, “He did do some very bad things to you, but he also really likes you.”

This wasn’t the first time Jiang Qingyue brought this up.

But Ren Shuhan didn’t care. It didn’t matter how Yu Xi felt about him.

“I just feel that since he loves you so much, do you have to not only want to kill him but also do this…” scaring him by dragging out the time, it was like gently torturing him. Jiang Qingyue hesitated and said, “I don’t think it’s necessary.”

“What about you?” Ren Shuhan asked, “Don’t you hate him? Hasn’t he done anything bad to you?”

This time, Jiang Qingyue remained silent for a long time.

“It’s not that I don’t hate him anymore,” he finally said, “I’m just numb.”

Ren Shuhan didn’t understand what Jiang Qingyue meant and patiently waited for him to explain.

“I can’t explain it clearly,” Jiang Qingyue frowned slightly and said softly, “Not long after it all started, I had to get used to obeying fate. Later, I struggled, it was painful, but it was useless. In the end, I gave up, only to realize that giving up wasn’t so painful, just very reluctant to let you go. I was very heartbroken that you, like me, are powerless.”

Jiang Qingyue turned around, looking at the empty corridor behind him, as if he could see Yu Xi standing there, gasping for breath from his injuries.

“Later, I regained my memories, knowing that my fate was just a story from a book. I felt ridiculous.”

It took him a while to pull himself out of painful memories, then he fell into confusion, doubting whether he was truly a living person.

“I have emotions,” Jiang Qingyue told himself, “I have someone I deeply love, I have things I detest, but my existence is determined by Yu Xi, born for him, dying for him, living my whole life according to the script he needs. So what am I?”

At that moment, he had no more resentment, only confusion.

He read the letter over and over again, trying to draw strength from his beloved, but facing Yu Xi’s incarnation in the form of the letter, he was free, yet couldn’t find any extra words to say. It was as if he had truly lowered himself to the other’s level, hesitating, doubting, wondering if he should submit to the other, if he shouldn’t dominate his leading man, his love.

It wasn’t until the moment Jiang Qingyue pushed open his own door, seeing his beloved standing in his room with his hands behind his back, turning around, smiling at him, that he came back to life.

He couldn’t help but throw himself into Ren Shuhan’s arms, holding him tightly, tears streaming down his face.

“I’m sorry, I just never thought that you would fall in love with me,” Jiang Qingyue cried.

Because I’m just a supporting role1This whole part here is referencing to the previous book in case you were confused.

“You’re not ridiculous,” Ren Shuhan’s gentle voice brought him back from reminiscence to reality, “What’s ridiculous is him. I can prove it to you.”

Although everyone in the live broadcast room was saying that Yu Xi and the Angel were equally dirty, Ren Shuhan admitted to himself that in this game, perhaps he was the one with the dirtiest heart.

This was somehow pretty bitter…!
