Chapter 33 - Lu Yunwan Stood in Front of Him Lu Yunwan was signaling Chu Xuanzhou not to speak. The starship’s resting cabin was exceedingly quiet. To the merman, whose hearing was abnormally sharp, the only sound left was the mingled rhythm of his own breathing and Lu Yunwan’s, weaving together in the stillness. With his eyes closed, it felt as though Lu Yunwan were right within reach. In the hazy starlight, he saw that as Lu Yunwan raised his hand, the black silk shirt slipped…- 87.9 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 32 - An Emotion Called Jealousy Driven by a desire buried deep within his heart, Chu Xuanzhou wanted to gently cover Lu Yunwan’s eyes, to stop him from looking at anyone but himself. And he truly did move to act on it. Almost instinctively, he lifted his hand and slowly reached upward. Yet at that very moment, Lu Yunwan slowly closed his eyes instead. As though a weight had been lifted, he let his hand rest on Chu Xuanzhou’s shoulder. For that single instant, Lu Yunwan’s…

- Chapter 31 - “Only I Can Look at It Here.” The corners of Lu Yunwan’s eyes were faintly red, his breathing trembling with emotion. His slightly disordered breaths brushed against Chu Xuanzhou’s collarbone like warm ocean waves, colliding there without rhythm. The young man’s heartbeat was thrown into disarray as well. “But…” Chu Xuanzhou tried to speak. He seemed to want to continue fighting for himself. The Regent would not allow it. “Your Highness…” Lu Yunwan…

- Chapter 30 - “The Only Thing You Cannot Do Is Leave Me.” Chu Xuanzhou did not like that place. …The pitch-dark depths of the ocean, the dilapidated buildings long since abandoned, and the merfolk hiding in the corners. Whether because of the migratory period or from excessive drug use, they had long since become slaves to their desires. The air and the water there were filled with a nauseating stench. It was a memory that disgusted Chu Xuanzhou, yet he could not stop revisiting…

Chapter 68: You can only succeed, failure is not an option Movements in the metaverse, unless as intense and damaging as those in GTC, generally didn’t significantly affect the real body. However, midway through our third round, I was forcibly ejected from the neuro-navigation pod due to neural overload. With a "click," the neural connection was severed. I laid inside the hatch, where various instrument data and optical paths flowed, covered in sweat as if I had just been caught in a downpour. I…- 246.6 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 67: Found It "If you were given another chance, would you choose to stay or leave?" "Given absolute trust, would you choose betrayal or loyalty?" "If I give you a knife, will you choose to kill me, or love me?" I opened my eyes abruptly, the words still echoing in my ears. The room layout was unfamiliar. I sat up, rubbing my temples, and glanced at the slightly messy but now empty bed beside me. I wasn't sure if my headache and exhaustion were from a nightmare or…

- Chapter 66: Never Think of Them Again, Never Touch Them Again. "Do you know why I'm looking for you?" Zong Shen'an asked, a cigar between his fingers, squinting as he looked me over. During the years I was with the Zong family, Zong Shen'an rarely gave Zong Yanlei a second glance, let alone me. All the big and small matters in the family, including Zong Yanlei's treatment and education, were always managed by Wuxi Li. He only cared about indulging in pleasure and doing everything he could to secure…

- Chapter 65: Should Have Used This on You Long Ago "And those miners..." Yu Xuan paused, then changed the subject, "When I sent people to treat them this morning, I found that someone had already taken them away before me." "Who?" I frowned. The first thing that came to mind was Bondor's dying order to squeeze every last drop of value out of the miners. Live dismemberment, organ trafficking, leaving not even a drop of blood in their bodies. "Zong Yanlei". All suspicions came to an abrupt…

- Chapter 64: I Cannot Stay I looked up and the spotlights on the ceiling began to shake again. My head was buzzing, as if I had been stuffed into a fully loaded "hydraulic shock absorber". This device, located at the bottom of the vehicle, was currently performing its mission with great fervor: absorbing all the impacts from the road surface. "Young Master...Young Master..." My vision was blurred; I couldn't tell if it was sweat or tears. At first, I just kept calling him "Young Master," but…

- Chapter 63: Total Collapse To flee or to stay? Zong Yanlei was currently like an engine running at full load with its cooling system completely shut down; in a mode where he couldn’t hear anything and his reason was completely detached. In this emotion-driven situation, any slight deviation could lead to devastating consequences. At times like this, "avoidance" was the only correct choice; only after this raging machine cooled down could the valves of communication be reopened. "Young Master,…
