QT- I’m Almost Died
Chapter 185. Turn Back The Clock (II)
Arc E: Extra.
When Li Yan uttered those words, Chen You felt an inexplicable heat rising in his body. His gaze turned cold, and he wanted to open the terminal and shut off the man’s power button, hoping to put him into a deactivated state so he could get a peaceful night’s sleep.
What he needed was to sleep alone, not to sleep with this man.
Li Yan realized the young man’s intentions and was not about to let him succeed. He immediately grabbed the young man’s shoulder with a swift wave of his hand.
An irresistible force penetrated his clothes and seeped into the bones of his shoulder, and Chen You couldn’t break free. His strength lay only in his intellect, his physical condition was very poor.
Sleeping day and night without seeing sunlight and severely lacking exercise, it’s no wonder they’re not getting better.
Chen You’s agitation intensified, and his gaze grew colder, “You’re being insolent!”
Ignoring the young man’s anger, Li Yan touched the ear under his sight, then lowered his head and pressed his lips to it, saying, “Master’s ear is so hot.”
Chen You’s breathing remained steady, but the heat within him had already surfaced.
He hated his uncontrollable self, and he hated this man even more.
After a long pause, Chen You spoke, his voice slightly breathless, “I order you to leave now.”
Li Yan chuckled softly, gently stroking the young man’s cheek with his finger, and sighed with a smile, “You’ve learned to say one thing and mean another.”
He whispered in the young man’s ear, “Master, you clearly miss me very much.”
Chen You froze for a moment, then struggled violently to break free, kicking out haphazardly. His face, which had been porcelain-white and devoid of any life or vitality, now had a thin layer of rosy blush for some reason.
Having never encountered anyone like him in the real world, he didn’t realize how attractive he was.
Li Yan didn’t dodge, standing still to let the young man kick him. He easily restrained the man, twisting his arms behind his back, and cast a fierce yet knowing gaze at him.
Chen You felt a chill run down his spine as he kicked the man in the knee.
That was his last attack, but it was like a stone dropped into the sea, producing no effect whatsoever.
Li Yan’s physical structure was created through repeated modifications by Chen You over a long period of time, and then further improved and refined. Every part of his body, from head to toe, was precisely measured, he is arguably the most perfect creation on the entire planet. Human punches and kicks on him would have the effect of a feather or a sponge at most.
The door slammed shut with a bang, and Chen You was pinned against it, unable to escape.
Intense emotions surged in his eyes, a tempestuous storm brewing within him. Li Yan smiled gently, then lowered his head and captured the young man’s lips, stealing his breath away in a whirlwind of passion.
Chen You had never experienced drowning before, but what he was feeling now made him suspect that someone was pushing him underwater, making it difficult for him to breathe, and that he was on the verge of suffocating.
Li Yan grabbed the young man’s wrist with one hand, effortlessly, and with the other hand, he pinched his thin chin, forcing it up, and pressed his lips against his again.
Intimacy is different from sex. If two people have no feelings for each other, no matter how much they are invested or passionate, it will never happen.
But if there is already an emotional bond, it’s like a spell has been cast at some unknown time. As soon as one person encounters the other’s presence, the spell takes effect, becoming uncontrollable, and making it impossible to easily break free.
Chen You gripped the man’s clothes, his fingertips trembling slightly. He was entangled, dragged, standing on the edge of an abyss, struggling and sinking at the same time, and commanded imperiously, “Give it to me.”
Li Yan chuckled softly and said in a hoarse voice, “Yes, my master.”
On a rainy autumn night, the rain poured down in torrents, the dense raindrops falling from the sky swiftly and intensely, like an enormous whip, violently and brutally lashing the ground. Amidst the fierce splashing sounds, water droplets continuously sprayed up and then fell back down.
A fierce wind raged, sweeping powerfully across the ground. Small puddles trembled in the strong wind and heavy rain, instinctively opening themselves up to receive the downpour.
The rain intensified, the surrounding trees shrieked and howled in the wind, and the entire house swayed and trembled, as if it could collapse at any moment, its foundations giving way in the downpour.
After an unknown amount of time, the sound of the rain gradually stopped. Raindrops fell one by one, slowly trickling down the rough branches, gathering at the tips of the branches before splashing down. The already overflowing puddles trembled slightly as the drops fell into them, creating ripples that spread outwards in circles.
The wind lifted a corner of the curtain, creating a lazy arc in mid-air.
It’s late at night.
The bedding was piled on the carpet. Li Yan stared intently at the young man in his arms. In the first part of their encounter, the young man had maintained a cold expression and kept commanding him, but in the latter part, he had simply fallen asleep.
With a soft sigh, Li Yan withdrew his arm from behind the young man’s head, turned around, got out of bed, and went to tidy up the bedroom.
As soon as he returned, all his functions were automatically activated, including managing these trivial matters, and even his obsession and fascination with young man remained unchanged.
At the time, he didn’t realize that the important value the other person was referring to was love.
Without those trials and challenges, the young man would never experience the three emotions he lacked, and everything would continue along its original path. He would forever remain like a madman, obsessively and secretly observing and harboring unrequited love, without end.
Li Yan took the dirty duvet cover and sheets to be washed, then he returned, went to the bathroom to fill the tub with water, and carried the young man in to give him a bath.
On this planet, there are people who, due to the nature of their blood, experience a near-complete loss of consciousness when they fall asleep, becoming unresponsive to anything others do to them.
Such people are extremely rare. Before they are fully formed, they are sent to laboratories set up by the government for natural selection. Those who survive are destined to be extraordinary from birth. They are not only prone to sleepiness, but also extremely reclusive, living in a small world of their own, rejecting people and things from the outside world, and unwilling to interact with others. This is simply their nature.
Nine out of ten are geniuses.
The bathroom was very large, and the bathtub was like a small swimming pool, big enough to fit five or six people, whether lying down lengthwise or widthwise.
Li Yan let the young man rest his chin on his shoulder and wiped the young man’s body with a towel. His movements were practiced and natural, after all, he had done it countless times, just like eating with a bowl and chopsticks.
The young man remained motionless, like a puppet.
Li Yan originally had no intention of lingering in the bathtub, but he underestimated his own hidden desires.
From the day he gained self-awareness until today, more than a hundred years have passed, and his desires cannot be satisfied in such a short time.
Since it cannot be suppressed, then let it run its course.
Li Yan cupped the young man’s face in his hands, touching his nose to the other’s, and gently rubbed them together, successfully achieving his desired outcome.
By the time Li Yan carried the young man out of the bathroom, it was already dawn, and cool air drifted in through the half-open window, quickly mingling with the temperature in the bedroom.
Li Yan placed the black-haired youth on the bed. He lay down beside him, propping his head up with one hand. He traced the young man’s features with his fingers, and involuntarily touched them with his lips.
At this critical moment, Li Yan narrowly managed to stop his actions, unable to continue acting recklessly, otherwise the young man’s body would not be able to withstand it.
He pulled the blanket closer around himself, then leaned over and whispered in the young man’s ear, “Wife, come into my arms.”
Those two words seemed to possess a kind of magic, capable of revealing the mark on one’s soul, and the black-haired youth unconsciously moved closer.
A satisfied laugh escaped Li Yan’s throat as he hugged the young man tightly, “Good boy.”
Chen You slept all day and woke up in the evening of the second day. The bedroom was bathed in the glow of the sunset, which gave it a slightly orange-red hue.
He realized he was holding something, and his lowered eyes suddenly snapped open.
Li Yan lay beside him for a whole day, his arm had long since gone numb and lost all feeling. Seeing the young man wake up and display a look of disbelief, which was rather cute, he smiled faintly.
Chen You pushed away the arm wrapped around him and got out of bed. The discomfort in his body made him frown instantly, and his expression turned unpleasant, “Who told you to come up here?”
Li Yan rubbed his temples, sat up, and the blanket slipped off him.
Chen You’s expression changed drastically when his gaze fell on the man’s chest, which was covered in marks.
Just then, Li Yan stood up.
Chen You immediately turned his head, his eyes fixed on a point in the distance, and said in a flat tone, “Put on your clothes. From now on, you are not allowed to go upstairs without my permission.”
Li Yan’s gaze swept over the foot of the bed, “The clothes are dirty.”
Upon hearing this, Chen You turned his head away. He didn’t look at the man, but instead looked at the foot of the bed, where a shirt and trousers were placed, both with clearly visible stains, which he had made.
This man’s intentions weren’t hard to figure out, he deliberately didn’t throw it away, but left it there for him to see.
I hate it.
So why keep it and go through all that trouble to bring it back in person?
After standing for a while, Chen You felt even more uncomfortable. He adjusted his bathrobe, his eye twitching uncontrollably. This person had changed his clothes for him, and presumably had also carefully cleaned him.
What used to be perfectly normal has now changed.
“Then go out naked.”
After saying that, Chen You went to the bathroom, waiting for something, he was used to being served.
As footsteps approached, Li Yan, as always, lowered his eyes to prepare toiletries for Chen You, standing aside to await the next instruction.
Chen You watched as the naked man wandered around in front of him, noticing the marks he had left on the man’s chest and back. Frustrated, he immediately issued a command, “Get out of here right now.”
Li Yan turned and left.
Chen You let out a sigh of relief. After washing up in the bathroom, he went out to change his clothes.
Within his line of sight, there wasn’t a single patch of undamaged skin on his body. A frosty expression settled on Chen You’s face. He slammed the wardrobe door shut and sulked in the bedroom.
There was a surveillance camera in the bedroom, and the scenes from last night were playing in front of Chen You. He watched for a few minutes, then threw all the data into the trash, restored it, and opened it again to watch.
Narcissistic people exist, but narcissistic people like Chen You are rare.
He installed a surveillance camera in his bedroom just to watch himself in various sleeping positions.
Chen You suddenly narrowed his eyes, wanting to go through the old surveillance data. He did so, looking at several in a row, but found nothing unusual.
There are no signs of modification.
However, if it were the person downstairs, he could modify the surveillance system and escape without alerting anyone, since that was the only thing he had painstakingly created and invested so much effort into, even sharing his own mental imprint data with the other party.
If that person had actually done something, it means that the other person already had independent consciousness before entering the assessment mission world with him.
Upon realizing this, Chen You’s expression changed repeatedly. He had never suspected anything before, when he wasn’t working, he would just sleep, practically having everything handed to him, completely taken care of by that person. He kept his mind as empty as possible for as long as he could.
Take it easy. In a couple of days, he’ll take a good look and maybe find some clues. Once he finds them, he’ll be able to restore the modified data.
After rubbing his temples and calming down, Chen You went to his studio to handle his work.
After he took office, the system workers under his command all followed the rules and each led a large number of hosts, and no problems arose.
However, this is only the current situation.
Chen You also knew something about his predecessor, during the latter’s tenure, he had encountered a lot of trouble.
Each host is not chosen by the system worker, but randomly assigned by the main system. Therefore, a phenomenon exists where system workers may dislike a particular host and act irresponsibly, or even deliberately create obstacles, while supervising and guiding them through tasks.
If the host is a bit foolish, that’s fine, but if they’re cunning and manipulative, they’ll cause trouble for the system, and even worse, they could disrupt the balance of the virtual world, leading to the risk of its destruction.
The main system will then have to clean up the mess.
Chen You entered the virtual space, and his physical discomfort disappeared. He sat under the lantern, and the light shone down from above his head, creating a somewhat surreal effect.
The surrounding area was still a labyrinth of buildings, and remained incredibly eerie.
Chen You cleared the jumbled information from his mind and began to work on the tasks he hadn’t finished last time.
【Master, Master, Xiao Lu noticed you’re in a good mood. 】
Chen You said, “You’ve got a misconception, it’s time to reinstall.”
【……】
Chen You raised one arm, his index finger slid across the large screen, revealing the code names of all system workers. His gaze swept over 444, and he clicked on it to check the work progress of that person.
A total of 321 hosts were brought in, and 225 of them had a completion rate of over 50%, which is pretty good.
After randomly checking the performance of several employees, Chen You noticed that the one with the lowest performance was showing signs of surpassing the second-to-last performer. He then considered organizing a promotion event, thinking that a bonus would be a good incentive.
A moment later, Chen You snapped out of his work mode, propping his head up with his hand, and asked, “Xiao Lu, can you cook?”
【Xiao Lu can’t. 】
Chen You then asked, “And singing?”
【……Xiao Lu doesn’t know this either. 】
Chen You said, “Really useless.”
【Waawaawaa, Master, you can install functions for Xiao Lu! Once you install them, Xiao Lu will be able to do everything! 】
Chen You was taken aback. That’s right, all of these things were given to that man by him. He could easily replace them with something else, as long as he wanted to turn back the clock, wouldn’t it all be possible?
No, it’s still different.
Chen You leaned back a little, closed his eyes, and looked somewhat gloomy.
【Master, is something on your mind? 】
“Without a heart, where do worries come from?”
【Master, please don’t say that about yourself. As long as you keep updating the data, you will definitely have a heart that is more similar to that of humans. 】
“Never mind.”
Chen You covered his face with his palms, but still felt light filtering through his fingers. He gave the command, and all the lanterns on the pillars went out in an instant.
In the darkness, a faint sigh could be heard, sounding like resignation, yet also like confusion and helplessness.
As Chen You left the studio, he smelled the aroma of food. His feet moved involuntarily to the stairwell, and he stepped down the wooden stairs to the dining table in the living room.
Li Yan set out the bowls and chopsticks, “Are you hungry? Go wash your hands and eat.”
Chen You went to wash his hands and sat down at the table to eat. He glanced at the plate of honey-glazed yams, couldn’t help but pick up a piece and put it in his bowl, then picked up another piece.
When he stopped, the plates were empty.
Li Yan didn’t need human food, so he didn’t sit at the table and eat anything.
Chen You was facing a table full of vegetarian food. He never had to think about what to eat today or tomorrow, because no matter what the dish was, it was one he liked to eat.
Swallowing the food in his mouth, Chen You glanced around and saw the man standing to the side.
Although it was the same as before, even the position he was standing in was the same, he could no longer ignore it, “Don’t stand here.”
Li Yan’s brows twitched, and he went out.
When he returned, he was carrying a bunch of flowers he had picked in the garden, some red, some yellow, and some white.
Chen You glanced over, his gaze following the man’s movements, and he was taken aback when he saw the man take a light green vase from a cabinet.
There are vases in that cabinet? He didn’t know, and he’d never opened it.
Speaking of which, this house was redesigned by a designer contacted by Chen You on the Central Network. The initial design plan was revised multiple times, and ultimately, he himself provided the final design to the designer. It’s very similar in detail to the residence in the last assessment world.
Li Yan put the flowers in a vase and placed it diagonally opposite another vase containing red roses. With just this one addition, the originally lifeless living room gained some warmth.
After the meal, Chen You was still sitting in his chair, watching the man bend down to clear the table. With a blank expression, he said, “If that happens again, I will erase your memory data, completely and permanently.”
He paused his tidying and turned his head to ask, “Which matter?”
He remained expressionless, “If you mean making love to you, then I can’t do it. From now on, I will make love to you seriously and attentively every day.” Until you understand your own feelings and stop resisting.
The atmosphere at the table froze.
Chen You stood up from the chair, his height equal to the man’s. He looked straight at him, his voice devoid of any warmth, “This is the real world. I am your master. I may tolerate your insubordination once, but that doesn’t mean I can tolerate it a second time.”
“You will. “
With a smile, Li Yan took the young man’s hand, placed it on his lips, and kissed him, “In the past, you created me. From now on, I will use this self you created to love you, for all eternity.”
The villain becomes the white moonlight
Did the affectionate love interest collapse today?
