Gu Yunzhou went around to his back.
The isolation patch was like a band-aid. Gu Yunzhou cleaned Ji Zhaoming's itchy back of the neck and sprayed another layer of medicine.
The cool ointment sprayed on his neck made Ji Zhaoming feel much better.
Ji Zhaoming asked, "Is there a problem with my level? You all seem quite nervous."
“No problem, I’m just nervous because…” Gu Yunzhou paused, then said half-jokingly, “The treasure is about to be discovered by someone else.”
Ji Zhaoming gave a vague "oh" and then asked, "So what level of aplha are you?"
Gu Yunzhou said, "S".
"Huh?" Ji Zhaoming's eyes widened. "The same as me?"
Thank goodness, he was afraid the system would give him another special level.
He's already quite noticeable as an omega; if he were to reach an even higher level, he wouldn't know what to do.
Hearing his thoughts, the system, holding its breath, unusually spoke up: "You deserve it."
Gu Yunzhou said at the same time, "Yes, we are a perfect match."
This is practically a confession.
Ji Zhaoming lowered his head and didn't dare to respond.
He was afraid that once the mission was completed, the same thing would happen again, just like in the last world.
He didn't want to, and dared not, let Gu Yunzhou go through it again.
Promises are the most fragile thing in the world; breaking promises is the norm.
Even he was no exception.
However, this statement from the system also suggests that S-rank is probably the rarest in the world.
Ji Zhaoming sighed softly and asked in a gentle voice, "Will this cause you any trouble?"
I waited for a long time, but still didn't get a reply.
The isolation stickers were applied.
Immediately afterwards, a kiss landed on the back of his neck.
Ji Zhaoming's eyes widened, and his whole body stiffened.
A gentle breeze blew past me from behind.
Gu Yunzhou said, "The master will never be a problem."

Chapter 43
There are more rivals in love than I thought.
Whoosh.
A sudden gust of wind blew up outside the window, causing the curtains to flutter everywhere. The shadows cast on the ground resembled dancing butterflies, swirling and twirling. The cool breeze carried away the heat, but it couldn't take away the rapid heartbeat that suddenly rose in Ji Zhaoming's heart.
The kiss was very light, especially with a barrier between them. If it weren't for Gu Yunzhou's heavy and hot breathing, Ji Zhaoming might not have even noticed the kiss.
He stood frozen, afraid to turn around, lest he break the atmosphere with the slightest movement.
Although Ji Zhaoming didn't know what the atmosphere was like.
Gu Yunzhou stood up, smoothed out the isolation patch with his fingers, and said, "Master will only become my—or even our god, and will definitely not be a trouble."
The word "god" sounded too childish, and Ji Zhaoming's face flushed slightly.
He said, "What you're saying makes me feel so ashamed. Besides, I've never been anyone's god."
He looked directly at Gu Yunzhou and said, word by word, "Your gods are yourselves from beginning to end."
Gu Yunzhou laughed.
He hugged Gu Yunzhou tightly from behind, his voice close to her ear: "You're right, but without you, there would be no me... no us."
He paused strangely in the middle.
Ji Zhaoming blushed, but hugged Gu Yunzhou back.
This embrace—
This embrace felt so familiar. For no reason at all, Ji Zhaoming simply believed that the Gu Yunzhou before him was the same Gu Yunzhou from the previous world.
He still owes Gu Yunzhou three days of romance.
For a moment, neither of them let go of the other's embrace, wishing they could stay in each other's presence forever.
Just as he heard hurried footsteps outside, Gu He called out from a distance, "Your Majesty—?"
Gu Yunzhou rested his head on Ji Zhaoming's shoulder, kneeling on the bed with his knees bent. This action reduced his aggressiveness somewhat, making him look more like... a little animal being affectionate.
Gu Yunzhou's tone was calm, but if you listened carefully, you could detect a hint of grievance: "You brat, I told him not to come back. What can he do besides cause trouble?"
Ji Zhaoming patted Gu Yunzhou's head reassuringly: "It's alright, Gu He should know what's going on."
After all, just by listening to that sound, you could tell that Gu He didn't dare to approach the room.
After all, he was worried about himself, so Ji Zhaoming said, "Don't be harsh with him."
Think about it, if I heard that Gu Yunzhou or Gu He was in trouble, I would rush over without thinking twice.
Gu Yunzhou frowned and snorted coldly, "He's not even worth mentioning. He's unreliable, acts solely on his own ideas, and never considers the consequences. He's simply..."
At this point, Gu Yunzhou suddenly stopped.
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent. Ji Zhaoming asked in surprise, "Is that really it?"
Gu Yunzhou pursed his lips, slowly released Ji Zhaoming, and asked somewhat blankly, "Is that really true?"
What was he trying to say?
Gu Yunzhou suddenly felt that the world around him was distorted, and only Ji Zhaoming was the only real person in the world.
He seems to have forgotten something very, very important.
And Gu He...
He wanted to say something like, "Gu He something else?"
I was about to say those words, but then I forgot them.
Ji Zhaoming chuckled and tapped Gu Yunzhou's head with his fingertip: "Didn't you say that? Why are you asking me instead?"
"I forgot," Gu Yunzhou said. "It probably wasn't anything important."
Finally, he asked again, "Aren't you going to reply to Gu He?"
Gu He shouted from a distance, "Your Majesty, can you hear me?"
The deputy standing next to him asked quietly, "Why not just call the king's personal terminal?"
Gu He gritted his teeth fiercely: "I'm afraid it'll be Gu Yunzhou who comes to pick me up again."
The deputy opened his mouth as if to say something, but then closed it again.
In fact, Gu Yunzhou has excellent hearing. Even from that distance, he can clearly hear Gu He's voice. Gu He speaks so arrogantly; he should be careful not to get retaliated against.
On second thought, even if Gu He were standing in front of Gu Yunzhou, he would still dare to call Gu Yunzhou that.
Besides, the deputy believed he knew the former city lord quite well, and Gu Yunzhou was certainly not the kind of person who would be so petty.
Inside the room, Gu Yunzhou stretched out his legs and complained, "Gu He's making a racket outside, it hurts. I might as well just give him a free computer."
After all, Gu Yunzhou had been busy for him for so long, so Ji Zhaoming quickly said, "That's fine too."
Gu Yunzhou handed his personal computer to Ji Zhaoming: "Use mine for now."
In order to detect pheromones, Ji Zhaoming removed everything, including his personal computer.
Ji Zhaoming glanced to the side.
The quantum computer was only a few steps away from him.
However, going there to get it would definitely not be as convenient as taking Gu Yunzhou directly, so Ji Zhaoming took the personal terminal, found Gu He's contact information, and made a call.
drop.
The computer was disconnected in a second.
This scene felt strangely familiar; Ji Zhaoming felt as if he had seen the same scene somewhere before.
"Your Majesty—can you hear me?" Gu He shouted.
It might have been a mistake, so Ji Zhaoming called again.
This time, the computer didn't even have time to give a warning before the call was disconnected.
Ji Zhaoming: ? ? ?
Outside, Gu He's voice was full of energy, and he didn't seem to be in any trouble.
Gu He said, "Your Majesty—"
Like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, each in their own place, one of them longing for the other.
Ji Zhaoming had no choice but to raise his voice and say, "Gu He, connect the personal terminal."
There was no need for Ji Zhaoming to call back. Gu He immediately dialed the number on the personal terminal.
As soon as the call connected, the two of them said at the same time:
Why didn't you connect your personal terminal just now?
"Wang, are you alright? I heard you differentiated? Damn it, I wasn't by your side at such a crucial time. Where's Gu Yunzhou? He told me not to come back. Actually, after my pheromones differentiated, they could already—"
Gu He spoke rapidly, and after he had said so much, Ji Zhaoming finally finished his first sentence.
Both of them paused suspiciously.
Gu He wasn't embarrassed at all and took back what he was going to say, saying, "I thought it was Gu Yunzhou who was giving me the light brain. Well, that makes sense. Gu Yunzhou wouldn't give me the light brain again and again."
Gu He bluntly said, "I'm an idiot."
