Chapter 255
[52 Declarations of Love: The Player must make fifty-two loving declarations to the cherished white moonlight in his heart.]
Four words perfectly described Fu Yiming’s current mood: what the actual fuck.
Even Yun Youyou beside him could feel the little deer in his heart fall over dead with a smack.
Of course, the Game could tell how unwilling Fu Yiming was.
To help him accept reality, it spoke again.
[If the Player does not complete the task, it will be upgraded to 101 Hugs of Love, 99 Kisses of Love, and 88 “Indescribable Exercises Below the Neck” of Love.]
Fu Yiming’s entire face darkened.
Compared with those revolting actions, declarations of love seemed much more normal.
“I can accept this task, but I don’t know how to confess.”
Fu Yiming compromised halfway.
The Game was remarkably considerate.
[The Game has retrieved 457,689 relevant entries for the Player. You may choose your favorite lines of affection from among them.]
Fu Yiming read a few, unable to hide the disgust in his eyes.
What kind of nonsense was this?
What normal person would enjoy such nauseating lines?
For a moment, Fu Yiming could not decide what was more disgusting: saying them or confessing to Ji Lin.
Beside him, Yun Youyou watched Fu Yiming’s face turn from pale to black, then from black to red.
Hm?
Had Fu Yiming suddenly evolved into a chameleon?
Yun Youyou was utterly confused.
Even Ji Lin did not know why Fu Yiming kept staring at him.
He turned toward Yun Youyou and selectively ignored Fu Yiming’s gaze.
Unexpectedly, Fu Yiming did not look away. He even took several steps toward Ji Lin.
Ji Lin shielded the curious Lu Keke behind him, his gaze sharp.
“What are you doing?”
As if possessed, Fu Yiming continued forward.
He chose the most normal line and forced it out.
“Guess what I’m thinking about.”
Ji Lin looked baffled.
“What does that have to do with me?”
Fu Yiming continued as if Ji Lin had answered properly. “All I can think about is you.”
Ji Lin: …
This man was sick.
He turned toward Yun Youyou, hoping for some clue.
Yun Youyou looked just as surprised.
She shook her head, indicating that she had no idea either.
Fu Yiming continued expressionlessly. “There are many laws in this world: administrative law, labor law, maritime law… but no law can stop me from loving you.”
Goose bumps rose along Ji Lin’s arms.
“…Have you lost your mind?”
Yun Youyou thought: So I’m only a prop in the middle of your little game.
She had no interest in serving as someone else’s aphrodisiac.
“Keke, come here. I’ll take you to play with something suitable for children.”
Lu Keke scampered over.
“Youyou, what are they talking about?”
Children his age were at their most curious, asking a hundred thousand questions every day.
Yun Youyou covered his little ears.
“Don’t listen. Those are the words of a devil.”
Lu Keke looked up. “Who’s stronger, us or devils?”
Yun Youyou took his hand and headed outside.
“Devils, of course. Devils love eating delicious children like you. One bite per child…”
The large and small figures soon vanished behind the door.
Once Yun Youyou left, Ji Lin stood and headed out too.
When he moved left, Fu Yiming stepped left.
When he moved right, Fu Yiming followed right.
Ji Lin raised his eyes.
“Get lost.”
If someone blocked Fu Yiming like this, he would probably say the same thing.
But he had a task to complete.
Even if Ji Lin told him to get lost ten thousand times, he could not leave.
Fu Yiming pretended not to see Ji Lin’s impatient gaze.
“I bought some oil today. Guess what kind?”
Ji Lin said coldly, “Lard.”
“…”
As if he could not hear the mockery in Ji Lin’s voice, Fu Yiming said, “Wrong. I-love-you oil.”
Ji Lin wanted to vomit.
“Take your oil and get lost.”
Fu Yiming wanted to vomit too.
But he bravely continued, “Do you have contact information? Why don’t we exchange phone numbers?”
After being pestered for so long, Ji Lin had lost his patience.
His face was cold, and frost seemed to radiate from his body.
“No phone.”
Fu Yiming said, “I can see you have lips. Why don’t we kiss?”
“…”
Ji Lin said expressionlessly, “I don’t only have lips. I have hands too.”
With that, he attacked Fu Yiming.
Once Ji Lin made a move, Fu Yiming actually sighed in relief.
Even he found his own words disgusting.
Neither man used lethal force.
They traded punches back and forth.
Even during a fight, Fu Yiming’s mouth did not stop.
His physical attacks were weaker than Ji Lin’s, but he knew how to attack the mind.
For every punch he took, he delivered one nauseating declaration, striving to disgust his opponent.
Ji Lin won the fight, but his face was darker than before.
Fu Yiming licked his split lip. “Hiss…”
It really did hurt.
Despite the painful wound, he still smiled and said, “You hit hard. Don’t you know I like you?”
Ji Lin answered by turning and leaving.
The instant he turned, he found Yun Youyou eavesdropping from a corner.
Yun Youyou had not expected him to emerge so quickly and was caught red-handed.
She smiled awkwardly. “Did you win?”
Ji Lin said, “No.”
Seeing no happiness on his face, Yun Youyou thought he had truly lost.
“It’s fine. You can fight again later.”
“Hiss…”
Ji Lin suddenly clutched his stomach and sucked in a pained breath, agony filling his face.
If Fu Yiming had been present, he would have noticed that Ji Lin’s actions and expression were identical to his own.
Pah! Copycat!
“What happened? Does your stomach hurt?”
Yun Youyou anxiously circled him like an ant on a hot pan.
Ji Lin frowned as though suffering terribly.
But he shook his head.
“It’s nothing. It doesn’t hurt at all.”
Yun Youyou immediately grew anxious.
“How could it not hurt when you look like this? Why are you still pretending to be tough?”
She fiercely scolded Ji Lin.
Ji Lin did not argue once. He obediently stood before Yun Youyou with his head lowered, like a big dog who had done something wrong.
“I’ll take you to treat your wounds. You’re already so old. Why are you still this impulsive?”
Yun Youyou thought these men were sometimes even more childish than Lu Keke.
She worried about Ji Lin’s wounds, but she had not forgotten Fu Yiming.
“Go sit in the living room first. I’ll check on Fu Yiming and come right back.”
Yun Youyou had barely taken one step when someone grabbed her hand.
“It hurts more…”
Perhaps it was the light, but Ji Lin’s eyes seemed to glisten with moisture.
Yun Youyou frowned. “Does it really hurt that much?”
Ji Lin withdrew his hand and turned his head aside, his exquisite profile looking forlorn.
“Go check on him. I don’t hurt at all.”
