He was debating whether to persevere or give up.
Because the woman says she loves him, yet she constantly humiliates him.
It's really hard for him not to become depressed during these kinds of days.
The illusion ends with the woman taking all of Wang Chen's assets six months after giving birth.
She ran away from home with Wang Chen's most beloved child, leaving him only a letter with just one sentence on it.
I have never loved you.
On that day, Wang Chen knelt on the ground, tears soaking the letter, and looked up in despair and pain, meeting Zhao Tingting's gaze.
The girl in the red dress with beautiful curly hair stood in front of him, giving him a bright smile, silently mocking his tragic life.
It was only at this moment that Wang Chen realized what it meant for evil to be punished, and the meaning of the words Zhao Tingting said to him before she died.
Wang Chen has gone mad.
He was sent to a mental hospital by his father, and eventually committed suicide there, thinking that he could be free after death.
But upon waking up, one discovers that it's a new beginning.
No matter how he tries to avoid it, he will always fall hopelessly in love with someone, only to be deceived and left with nothing, suffering a lifetime of pain.
If one cannot fully repent, one will be trapped forever in this illusory prison, unable to escape.
Sensing Zhao Tingting approaching, Yu Tang pushed Lu Qingyuan away, rubbed his neck which was almost stiff, and asked the girl, "How are you, Tingting? Feeling better now?"
Zhao Tingting's gaze was fixed on Wang Chen's illusion. She pursed her lips, raised her hand to wipe away the blood and tears that flowed down her face, and nodded: "Yes, that feels better. This is indeed much more satisfying than killing them directly."
She did genuinely like Wang Chen.
She even considered getting married right after graduating from university. But she never imagined that she would trust the wrong man and ruin her life.
These tears weren't for Wang Chen, but for herself.
For that young, ignorant self who lacked social experience.
She had countless opportunities to avoid her life being completely ruined.
But his repeated hesitation and soft-heartedness led to his downfall.
But life doesn't offer second chances. She only wishes that in her next life she could be discerning, avoid these scumbags, think more about herself, and live an ordinary yet happy life.
"Zhao Tingting, don't forget our deal." Lu Qingyuan's words interrupted everyone's thoughts.
Yu Tang was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "What kind of deal did you make?"
Lu Qingyuan's smile widened. He leaned closer to Yu Tang, his hand supporting him on the back of the bed, and said, "Of course, I'm giving her a chance to take revenge. She has to give me her soul to enjoy."
The demon, who had always been well-behaved, suddenly bared his fangs and ruthlessly stated the facts: "Mr. Angel, don't forget that I am a demon who only cares about profit. No matter how miserable she is or how difficult her situation is, she is still in my hands."
"Since the contract was made in advance, it cannot be reneged on..."
"You can't do this to Tingting!" Chen Lu instinctively stepped in front of Zhao Tingting and said, "If you want a human soul, take mine! Please, spare Tingting!"
Demons love to devour souls, and once a soul is consumed by a demon, it loses its right to be reborn.
In other words, there will be no next life. No matter how well Zhao Tingting envisions the future, there will be no chance for it to come true.
"Stop playing the hero." Lu Qingyuan sneered, "I wouldn't even want your soul if you gave it to me, it's utterly disgusting."
Upon hearing this, Chen Lu's face turned even paler.
Zhao Tingting shook her head at her, walked up to Lu Qingyuan, and knelt on one knee: "Benefactor, I understand. I will definitely abide by the contract we made. After it is done, I will willingly offer my soul to you."
"Little devil, are you really going to take Tingting's soul?"
Yu Tang still couldn't quite believe that Lu Qingyuan would do such a thing.
After all, Lu Qingyuan had said he was standing up for Zhao Tingting after entering the game.
Why are they not even giving the other person a chance to reincarnate?
“Of course…” Lu Qingyuan answered without hesitation, “These are the rules of the game, and also our agreement. I have no reason to help her unconditionally.”
"After all, saving lives is the job of angels, what does it have to do with me, a devil?"
"Is this the truth?" Yu Tang squinted, still not believing it.
“This time it’s the truth.” Lu Qingyuan felt a strange itch as he was stared at and the two of them stood so close.
After a moment's thought, he reached out and grabbed Yu Tang's collar, pulling him close. He whispered in the man's ear, "However, what I made with her was just a small contract, and it's not like I can't go back on my word..."
"It's just that a pure soul like hers is hard to find. If I miss out, it would be like missing out on a long-awaited feast for me, you..."
His hot breath brushed against Yu Tang's earlobe, and Lu Qingyuan asked him, "How are you going to make it up to me?"
Yu Tang was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously asked, "Why should I compensate you?"
Lu Qingyuan laughed: "Isn't it because you want to save Zhao Tingting?"
Yu Tang stammered, "I..."
"If you don't save her, I'll eat her right now." Lu Qingyuan released Yu Tang and licked his sharp teeth: "It's been so long, I'm starving. I'll just eat her to fill my stomach."
After saying that, he was about to wave to Zhao Tingting, but Yu Tang grabbed his arm instead.
"Tell me, what kind of compensation do you want?" Yu Tang glanced at Zhao Tingting: "As long as you give this girl a chance to be reborn, I will do whatever you say."
"Wow, Mr. Angel is so kind." Lu Qingyuan smiled like a cunning fox. He told Zhao Tingting to stand up and said to the girl, "Zhao Tingting, you should thank this Mr. Angel properly. He has already agreed to pay your reward."
Lu Qingyuan extended a finger, and a thin black light shot out from the fingertip, heading straight into Zhao Tingting's forehead.
The next moment, Lu Qingyuan's face turned pale, and his breathing became more difficult.
But he quickly masked his embarrassment, laughing as he said, "Now that our contract is dissolved, you stay here and watch over these people. I'm going to ask Mr. Angel for what he owes me..."
After saying that, he picked up Yu Tang horizontally, rushed out of the window, spread his black wings, flew to the rooftop, and just managed to come to a stop.
Yu Tang got out of his arms and was about to ask him what compensation he wanted when the devil grabbed her waist and the back of her neck and kissed her fiercely.
Perhaps it was because Yu Tang had previously mocked Lu Qingyuan's poor kissing skills that angered the demon, so Lu Qingyuan kissed him quite earnestly this time.
Meticulous yet tender and affectionate, it seizes and possesses from ever-changing angles.
Yu Tang's face felt a little hot.
My waist is also a little weak.
That tingling, aching sensation in his heart surged through his body again, leaving him unusually at a loss.
After the kiss ended, Yu Tang's chest heaved as Lu Qingyuan pulled her into his arms.
The handsome demon used his arms and black wings to form a giant cage, completely trapping Yu Tang inside.
I asked him, "If I said the compensation I want is you, would you give it to me?"
Chapter 19
Died for the fifth time for the villain (19)
Which one wants it?
The question flashed through Yu Tang's mind as he felt the hand around his lower back slowly move downwards, the gesture full of suggestive meaning.
I understood instantly.
The demon's insatiable desires are a fact known to both the celestial and demonic realms.
However, in Yu Tang's eyes, Lu Qingyuan must have misunderstood desire.
Judging from the torment he endured for a month and the images shown to him, Yu Tang suspected that this little devil seemed to have no idea what true love and desire were.
The system says Lu Qingyuan's favorability rating has soared to 60. But this kid has absolutely no intention of confessing his feelings.
In Yu Tang's view, Lu Qingyuan's teasing of him was more than affection.
Moreover, favorability ratings don't represent everything.
The two are currently in a state of conflict, so it would seem strange if they were to develop a deeper relationship without really understanding what was going on.
"If I lose, my soul will be yours." Yu Tang pressed Lu Qingyuan's hand and asked him, "Why are you so fixated on my body?"
Thinking of something, Yu Tang teased, "Besides, didn't you also say that I'm old and ugly, and that I'd feel inferior to you? How could I possibly be worthy of you?"
Seeing his silence, Yu Tang added, "Besides, you know I'm not good at it. I'm not into this kind of thing. Even if I agreed, we wouldn't have any fun. You might as well ask for something else..."
Yu Tang suddenly gasped, her eyes turning red as she stared at Lu Qingyuan.
He gritted his teeth: "Let go..."
Lu Qingyuan became even more aggressive, laughing smugly: "I won't let go..."
Yu Tang breathed rapidly, feeling an itch and heat spreading through his body.
He started to panic.
After all, he had seen so many stimulating scenes before and had no reaction, so why couldn't he control himself when Lu Qingyuan did this to him?
When it was over, Yu Tang shoved Lu Qingyuan away, quickly zipped up her pants, glared at the smug-smiling devil, and gritted her teeth: "How could you suddenly do something like this?"
"Isn't this a test of your abilities?" Lu Qingyuan took out a handkerchief, wiped his hands clean, and said slowly, "It seems I misunderstood you before. I apologize."
"It's not that you're incapable, it's just that you don't like the illusions I create."
He thought for a moment and continued, "I can see that you are very aroused by my touch, which means that only I can arouse this impulse in you."
Therefore, I infer that your body likes me, and further, I infer that you like me very much.
At this point, Lu Qingyuan couldn't help but laugh out loud. He looked at Yu Tang, whose face was flushed red, and asked him with bright eyes, "Hey, if you like me, just say so. Why all the beating around the bush?"
"I think I misunderstood you before. You came from the Heavenly Realm, not to make me reform, but to find an opportunity to spend time with me, right?"
"After all, although I don't go to the heavens, the legends about me have always existed."
"There's no way around it, a handsome and devilish demon like me is just too popular. The line of people who want to pursue me could stretch from the Heavenly Tree to the Fire Hell Pool."
Yu Tang had never been so speechless in his life.
The heat on his face and body gradually subsided. He twitched his lips, looked at the self-absorbed demon, and replied with two words: "Heh..."
Lu Qingyuan wasn't deterred by his coldness at all; he just smiled and said, "I think you're starting to feel embarrassed because I hit the nail on the head, right? Hmm, I understand. After all, I really am..."
He smoothed his curly hair: "Too outstanding."
