Xie He's life is simply not too easy and comfortable, and he hasn't shown 444 his treasures for a long time, as if he has completely let go of the past.
For Xie He, such a peaceful life has not happened for a long, long time. Since several years ago, the frequency of the main system sending Raiders to his world has become higher and higher, and in the end it has almost reached every month. To such an extent, those people tried their best to get close to him every day.
He has to distinguish who is the attacker beside him at every moment. After one dies, the next one will come immediately, without a moment's gap in between.
Now Xie He finally no longer needs to distinguish who is the attacker around him, no need to worry that someone he knows may suddenly be replaced by another strange soul, no need to... suppress the anger in his heart and play love games with those outsiders.
Apart from going to work, Xie He occasionally eats and watches movies with Yu Shu, as if he plans to have a serious relationship and plan to live a life.
444 didn't take it seriously at first, but then he became a little confused. Why did he think that his host really planned to live like this... But didn't the host say that he was not that kind of person
After seeing Xie He send Yu Shu away again, 444 finally couldn't help asking.
[444: Host, are you really ready to live in peace? Σ(° △°|||)︴]
[Xie He: Is it not good?]
[444: Not...]
[Xie He: Ordinary people are just a lifetime in the end, Zi Feiyu knows the joy of fish, for me, whether to win this game, when to win, it is too simple... In fact, if I can live in peace like this For a lifetime, it doesn't seem to make any difference whether you want the detachment potion or not. Smile JPG]
[444: ... also.]What you said seems to make sense... orz
[Xie He: So baby, don't think too much, this world is very leisurely, go out and have fun if you have nothing to do:)]
[444: Good! ╰(*°▽°*)╯]
Xie He lowered his eyes, hiding the cold look in his pupils, he... Of course he is not such a magnanimous person, and he doesn't like to accept his fate, but there is no need to let 444 know about it.
Xie He drove home, the city at night was full of neon lights, pedestrians were coming and going, and the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus wafted in the cool air... His world was so realistic, but in the eyes of the main system, it was regarded as what
What are these fresh lives, joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys? Is all this real, or is it just an illusion that exists because of him alone...
It was very late when Xie He returned home. He came out of the underground garage and saw a tall figure standing there at the door of the house. Xie He's footsteps paused, and then walked over as if nothing had happened.
Lu Ting saw Xie He approaching, because he was so nervous that his face looked serious and a little cold.
In fact, his inner activities are like this.
[Lu Ting: He doesn't seem happy to see me...]
[666: Don't be cowardly, just go!]
[Lu Ting: ...]
[666: According to the information I recently got from 444, Xie He is ready to seriously date and live with the natives of this world! Are you planning to stay here for the rest of your life as your predecessor blesses him?]
[Lu Ting: I don't want to.]
[666: That's right, so go up and up, show your previous courage! The characters you crossed are much more powerful than now!]
[Lu Ting: Don't talk about that, he definitely doesn't like me treating him like that...] Every time I think about those things, it feels like a knife is scratching his heart...
[666: But it turns out that he is very straightforward in favorability. This is what I have seen with my own eyes.]
[Lu Ting: ...]
Just when Lu Ting was hesitating, Xie He had already walked to the door, he didn't even look at Lu Ting, as if he was an invisible person, he directly took out the key to open the door.
Seeing that his beloved was about to disappear in front of him again... Lu Ting finally grabbed Xie He's wrist, and his voice was suppressed: "I... have something to tell you."
Xie He glanced at Lu Ting holding his hand, his expression was cold, "Let go."
Lu Ting didn't let go, he held Xie He's hand hard, with a complicated look in his eyes, and said after a long time: "I want to see you, I came back... actually to see you."
Xie He Dingding looked at him, a playful smile slowly appeared on his lips, and his tone was mocking, "I remember you told me before that you came back to see Xie Xi."
Lu Ting's expression was stiff, "That..."
Xie He said with a smile that was not a smile: "You should know me very well... I never liked Xie Xi since I was a child, and I don't want anything he touched."
There was a very sad look in Lu Ting's eyes. Of course he knew that there was no one who knew Xie He when he was a child better than him. He was the one who spent the most time with him.
He still remembers one time when Xie Hecai was in high school... Xie Xi snatched away one of Xie He's favorite models. Xie He took the model that Xie Xi returned but didn't want it, but smashed it in front of Xie Xi.
He just simply disliked Xie Xi.
"I'm sorry... I have nothing to do with him, and I have never liked him." Lu Ting looked guilty, he knew that he had done something too much, in the eyes of Xie He at that time, he was the most important person... It's just that when he left, he didn't know if he could come back...
He is not sure that there will be a day to meet again, so he doesn't want Xie He to be sad because of him.
"Really?" Xie He looked lazy and indifferent, and said lightly: "You don't need to think about it, I don't care if you like him or not, remember what I said to you that day."
Lu Ting pursed his lips, his face turned pale, of course he remembered... Xie He said that they have nothing to do with each other.
Xie He had no intention of talking to him again, he threw off Lu Ting's hand, turned around and was about to shut Lu Ting out of the door, Lu Ting reacted faster, he held the door with one hand, so that Xie He could not close the door, and locked him circled in his arms.
Xie He's expression finally cooled down, "What are you going to do?"
[666: Kiss him! kiss him! According to Chapter 9 of "Love Strategy Handbook", when you have nothing to say, a forced kiss can solve this embarrassment!]
Lu Ting stared at Xie He's face from a close distance. The young man of the year had grown into a calm man. This handsome face smiled like a spring breeze, and when it was cold, it was like a thousand miles of ice. The deep black eyes made people invisible Seeing through his emotions... The thin lips under the tall nose bridge, Lu Ting recalled the lingering time between the two of them before, that was the first time they used their bodies to get so close, he could never forget that smell...
Lu Ting suddenly lowered his head and kissed her! Hold Xie He's shoulder with one hand, his strength is so great, Xie He can't push him away at all.
It was with great difficulty that he restrained himself from approaching this person...but once touched, he was inseparable at all... He missed him so much, and the longing that had accumulated for hundreds of years was already on the verge of being unstoppable.
Xie He felt that Lu Ting's body was like a mountain, and the hand holding his shoulder made him unable to move, so he could only let him kiss. Xie He never liked to do meaningless things, so he was too lazy to resist, and let Lu Ting kiss one Enough, until Lu Ting let go, Xie He raised his hand without hesitation and gave him a slap.
Lu Ting was stunned by the beating, he looked at Xie He's cold eyes, and there was a look of guilt in his eyes... Xie He was really angry... But it was obviously not like this last time
Xie He withdrew his hand and glanced at him: "Go away, my hand hurts when I hit you."
[Ding, target Xie He favorability degree -10, current favorability degree -30]
Lu Ting's face was pale, and he didn't dare to stop him anymore. He watched Xie He go in, and the door closed with a 'bang', blocking him out.
[666: Ahem...]
[Lu Ting: Didn't you say that a forced kiss can solve this embarrassment?]
[666: Hmm... This one still lacks some practical effect. Depending on the actual situation, the same method may produce different effects. I need to do more research. Human emotions are really complicated things...]
[Lu Ting: ...]
[666: But you are not considered a failure.]
[Lu Ting: Isn't this called a failure?]
[666: Of course, you actually succeeded! Do you see how much he hates you now? Isn't your purpose just to make him hate you? To some extent you have achieved exactly what you wanted, so don't get discouraged and keep going! You can also make him hate you even more!]
[Lu Ting: ... shut up.]
… … … … … … …
Xie He returned home with a cold face.
[444 asks in a low voice: Great host, you seem very angry... ]
[Xie He: Of course, after all, I don't like this kind of person who is inconsequential and likes to lie. Smile JPG]
[444: Then why did you tease him like that in the first place? I thought you didn't hate him that much_(:зゝ∠)_]
[Xie He: Well... some people don't always know how to seize opportunities. You must know that some opportunities are lost if they are lost. If you want to get the same thing again, you have to pay a little more price:)]
[444:...]
Xie He had a good night's sleep, the next day was the weekend, he took a late sleep, made breakfast for himself leisurely, and then went out.
As soon as he opened the door, he found that Lu Ting was still standing at the door. Obviously he hadn't left all night, and he guarded the door all night.
Seeing Xie He coming out, Lu Ting was silent for a while, lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry."
Xie He's expression is still cold: "I'm sorry for what?"
Lu Ting said: "I shouldn't have done that yesterday...but I really want to tell you that I have never liked Xie Xi, I have always liked you, I just didn't want you to feel sorry for me, that's why I did that before leaving Do it." He finished in one go, and then looked at Xie He nervously.
That was the most guilty thing in his heart, which tormented him for many, many years... After such a long time, he finally spoke his mind, what would Xie He think
The answer haunted him for hundreds of years.
Xie He looked at Lu Ting and suddenly laughed, "I already knew."
A gleam of light finally appeared in Lu Ting's eyes, and his nervous body was a little stiff, "You, you know?"
Xie He nodded, "It's not difficult to guess, right? After all, your acting skills have not improved much over the years, and they are as bad as ever."
Lu Ting: "..."
Xie He smiled for a while, then his expression became slightly cold, and he said: "But no matter what your purpose or reason is, the person who leaves is the person who leaves, and I don't care about the person who leaves me, the result will not Change because of your motives."
"Don't you just want me to forget you?" Xie He's lips hooked, "I will do as you wish."
[Ding, target Xie He favorability degree -10, current favorability degree -40]
The light in Lu Ting's eyes dissipated and suddenly dimmed. He shook his hand vigorously, and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."
It turns out that this is Xie He's idea. It turns out that he has always seen it so clearly... In his eyes, the reason for leaving him is not important, what matters is the result.
If he had been able to express his thoughts to Xie He well, would the result be different
Xie He didn't look at Lu Ting again, turned and left, and drove out.
Lu Ting stood there in a daze for a long time, then smiled wryly and said, "It's my fault, he is much clearer than I imagined."
666 didn't expect Xie He to see it back then, he really underestimated this person.
[666: It's all in the past... It's meaningless to think about it now, why don't you think about how to get him back?]
[Lu Ting: Do you think I can chase him back?]
[666: Anyway, I have worked hard, don't leave regrets for yourself! come on! Even if you can't chase him back and make him hate you, no matter how you look at it, you are winning!]He felt that his host's EQ was obviously not Xie He's opponent, but instead of watching Lu Ting endure the pain alone, it is better to encourage him to pursue true love. Although both choices are bad...but at least choose the bad one A slightly rotten one is better, right
……………
Mr. Zhao and the others organized activities on weekends, and a group of people went fishing in the reservoir.
Xie He also made an appointment with them, but he went to pick up Yu Shu first, and then went there.
Recently, the relationship between the two has been confirmed. Xie He always brings Yu Shu with him when he attends some occasions, obviously not the kind who intends to play around. Xie He's friends see that he attaches great importance to Yu Shu, so they also respect Yu Shu very much. In this way, Mr. Xie is really planning to calm down...
I really underestimated this teacher Yu. I never thought that even a prodigal son like Mr. Xie could subdue him. I admire him!
Today's sun is a bit vicious, Xie He held up the parasol, but there were still some beads of sweat on Yu Shu's fair face, Xie He looked at him gently, took out a tissue to wipe his sweat, and was considerate Bring him some water.
Yu Shu was a little shy and whispered, "Thank you."
Xie He turned his head, his lips brushed against his ears, and let out a magnetic and elegant laugh: "You're welcome, this is what I should do."
Yu Shu's face turned red immediately.
Seeing this, Xie He smiled, put his arm around his shoulder, and kissed him tenderly. Yu Shu shook his hand, and the fish that was just about to take the bait ran away.
Mr. Zhao and the others made a tut-tsk-tsk sound when they saw it. This is not fishing. This is clearly a show of affection. Mr. Xie is still superb.
Lu Ting followed secretly, but he didn't dare to get close. He stood alone and watched from a distance. Seeing this, he grabbed a hole in the tree trunk in front of him with a click! Sawdust fell to the ground.
[666:...]Poor tree.
[Lu Ting: He was not a master of love before!]
[666: ... Calm down!]
Lu Ting suddenly strode over. Mr. Zhao and others saw Lu Ting suddenly appearing, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay. No one invited Lu Ting, how did he come here? Everyone knows the past grievances between Xie He and Lu Ting, so try to avoid letting them meet.
It doesn't look good today...
Seeing Xie He kissing someone else, Lu Ting felt his eyes sting, wishing to separate them immediately! But when he was about to start, he remembered what Xie He said coldly to him that day. He said that he had no right to meddle in his affairs, and he would go on each side of the road...
If you do it yourself, Xie He will only hate him more.
Lu Ting forcibly suppressed the jealousy and anger in his heart, and resisted the urge to beat someone up. Instead, he found a place beside him and sat down, staring at them like that.
Xie He had already seen Lu Ting out of the corner of his eye, but he didn't care, he was not disturbed at all, and he was still gentle with Yu Shuni.
It was Yu Shu who later found out that Lu Ting had come, and that fierce and stern man had been looking at him with murderous eyes... His face turned pale with fright, and he asked Xie He in a low voice: "Isn't this your ex-boyfriend? Didn't you say that you didn't have any?" Is it related?"
Xie He looked at him apologetically and said, "We really have nothing to do with each other."
Lu Ting suddenly stood up, he walked up to Yu Shu step by step, and said: "We have no relationship before, but I like Xie He and want to pursue him again, so you are my rival in love."
Yu Shu: "..."
Mr. Zhao and the others: "..." Damn it, what kind of drama is this today? Shocking reversal? Doesn't Lu Ting like Xie Xi? Didn't he dump Xie He first
Xie He finally frowned slightly, with an impatient look in his eyes, "You are endless, I said we have nothing to do with it."
[Ding, target Xie He favorability degree -10, current favorability degree -50]
When Lu Ting heard the hint of favorability, his expression was stiff, and he almost wanted to give up.
[666: Come on! Don't be cowardly, try to reach favorability -100]
[Lu Ting: Liu Zi, you can really talk less recently...]
[666: Ahem...]
Lu Ting pursed his lips tightly, lowered his head, and his eyes were full of guilt, "I'm sorry, you should be angry with me, but I have always loved you, and it was all my fault before."
Mr. Zhao and others: "..." They must not be hallucinating today, this sharp turn almost sent them flying.
Mr. Lu became a loyal dog overnight
Xie He was too lazy to pay attention to Lu Ting any more, turned to Yu Shu and said, "Leave him alone."
Yu Shu was a little embarrassed, but still nodded.
Lu Ting looked at Xie He and didn't even look at him. His figure was a little slumped, but he didn't dare to go up and hit people. Then Xie He would definitely be even more unhappy. He could only watch Xie He show affection with others with jealousy. The sour smell was almost ten miles away.
[Lu Ting: I regret it. I knew earlier that I shouldn't play tricks like this. Anyway, he wouldn't like me. Why don't I just explain my feelings to him, and I'll go crazy after watching it.]
[666: Hold on, at least you can still look at him now, can't you? It's better than not seeing what's coming, right?]
[Lu Ting: What you said seems to be the same reason, why I don't feel comforted at all...]
[666:...]Well, at least you are not mentally ill, I think the effect of this treatment is still very good...
…………………
From that day on, Lu Ting has been circling around Xie He like a stalker every day. Xie He concentrates on falling in love, and has always been lazy to give him a cold look.
Lu Ting and 666 study the "Love Strategy Handbook" every day. It says that to impress someone, you must be persistent, sincere, and never give up halfway... Lu Ting continued to insist.
He didn't let go of any opportunity to contact Xie He, and he also participated in any activities Xie He participated in, giving gifts, asking for warmth, etc., and he showed so much affection that he almost didn't wag his tail.
Gradually everyone knew that Mr. Lu's true love was Xie He. Although he didn't know why Xie Xi was allowed to get involved, it was normal... It is said that when Mr. Xie was young, Mr. Lu was What about this...
Lu Ting persevered in trying to pursue Xie He, but the effect was always counterproductive. Every time Xie He lowered his favorability, it seemed that he was -90.
444 has been obsessed with playing and not thinking about it recently, and occasionally comes back to watch this scene, and every time he looks confused, the favorability of his host is always not according to common sense! When Lu Ting first came back, his host's favorability was so refreshing with Lu Ting's dead appearance. Now Lu Ting turned around to chase him, but instead lowered his favorability every day.
666 tried every means to contact 444 every day, trying to get some information, but 444 was too stupid, he didn't understand his host's mind at all, and he didn't get much useful information at all.
Soon it was Valentine's Day, and Lu Ting learned that Xie He was going to ask Yu Shu out for dinner. According to Xie He's usual practice, there must be a harmonious life after dinner.
Finally, Lu Ting couldn't bear it any longer. He went into Yu Shu's house, tied the poor teacher's hands, and stuffed his mouth. After making sure that he couldn't leave the house, he came to the hotel that Xie He had booked according to the information given by 666.
Xie He has arrived early. He has always been a romantic and sentimental person. The hotel he chose is very stylish, with an elegant and quiet environment. At the moment, he is wearing a decent suit, which makes him handsome and personable.
He turned his head slightly when he heard the footsteps, revealing half of his handsome side face, and saw that it was Lu Ting, and he didn't show too much surprise.
Lu Ting's expression was a little cold because of his nervousness. He came to sit down in front of Xie He, was silent for a few seconds, and said, "He can't come today."
Xie He was not surprised or angry, but said lightly: "Didn't you decide not to disturb my life anymore? What do you mean by doing this now? Is it fun to change?"
Lu Ting's voice was a bit bitter, and he said, "I have prepared a gift for you."
As he spoke, he took out a black flannel box and pushed it in front of Xie He.
Xie He looked at the box in front of him, opened it, and there was a metal pendant quietly inside. There was no material, the luster was dull, and two simple Chinese characters were engraved on it, Ting & He.
Lu Ting said: "This is made of the hardest Ace metal sold in the system store. It can't be destroyed. I made two and kept it with me all the time. I wanted to give you the other one, but it's a pity that I haven't had it yet." Chance."
Xie He touched the pendant with his fingertips, his eyes were deep, and he couldn't see any emotion.
Lu Ting seemed to be remembering the past, with a look of memory in his eyes, and his voice was a little astringent, "I know that my behavior during this period is a bit ridiculous, after all, I left you first, no matter what the reason is, I can't change this. The fact is that I was not honest first, and it is normal for you not to forgive me."
"I just... wanted to tell you that I've always loved you."
Yes, what was he hesitating about before? Obviously he loves this person so much, but he dare not express his heart... He made a prison, trapped himself inside and couldn't get out.
But if you don't say it now, if you don't have a chance to say it in the future, it will probably be the biggest regret in your life.
In the countless years that Lu Ting left, he walked on the edge of life and death all the time, escaped from death again and again, never regretted for a moment that he had been in this world, never regretted for a moment that he fell in love with such a person... It was not this person who pushed him away. It was this person who gave him the courage to survive the danger and gave him the hope to persevere.
If he didn't have this love and persistence in his heart, maybe he couldn't wait for the day when he came back
Maybe he died a long time ago, many hosts died every day, and he came back alive because he always believed that... someone was waiting for him to come back.
It was you who brought me back alive.
"I'm sorry." Lu Ting stood up, and he took a deep look at Xie He, his eyes were full of nostalgia, the favorability degree has already reached -90, is it really necessary to wait until -100? Forget it, if he really loves this person, he shouldn't bother him like this, he doesn't want to see him unhappy at all.
He did this just because he didn't want to hide his emotions anymore. This is a frankness he owes Xie He. Although it's too late, but... at least he doesn't want to leave regrets.
Lu Ting smiled softly: "Throw it away if you don't like it, and then throw it away after I leave. This is my last request."
After Lu Ting finished speaking, he turned and left.
This time, he really wanted to leave, not because he restrained himself from leaving, but because Xie He no longer needed him.
Just as Lu Ting walked a few steps, he suddenly heard a cool voice from behind, "Wait a minute."
He stopped, turned around and smiled, "What's the matter?"
Xie Hewang landed on Lu Ting, raised his eyebrows, and an unknown light flashed in his phoenix eyes, his expression was lazy, "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered a question that I forgot to ask before, Lu Ting, is that your real name?"
