Chapter 44
Died for the fifth time for the villain (44)
The projection of memories gradually blurred until it disappeared completely.
Darkness descended upon Yutang's surroundings.
In the pitch-black darkness, without a single ray of light, one could only hear their own breathing and heartbeat.
"Little devil..." Yu Tang called Lu Qingyuan's name: "Where are you?"
This time, no one responded to him.
Yu Tang walked forward and touched a door with a metal doorknob underneath.
When you unscrew it, light seeps in, dazzling your eyes.
The sky is azure, the buildings are pure white and holy, and the statue of an archangel stands in the central square. Looking up, you can see angels with outstretched white wings flying in the air.
Yu Tang was slightly taken aback.
Then the door slammed shut.
Leaning against the door, he laughed: "Lu Qingyuan, how cowardly are you?"
"You said you wanted me to know about your past, but now that I do, you're thinking of sending me away?"
"Aren't you the most handsome and invincible demon in the universe? Aren't the people who like you enough to line up from the Heavenly Tree to the Hellfire Pool?"
"Where's your confidence? Where's the courage you had to knock me unconscious and lock me to the bedside? Did it all go to waste?"
After saying that, he turned around, gripped the doorknob again, and said, "I'll give you one more chance. If you still hide and don't come out, I'm really leaving."
The door opened, revealing the man's profile bathed in a pale golden light. He said resolutely, "Once I step out of this door, I will never come back to find you."
"I mean what I say..."
Suddenly, someone grabbed her wrist, which was hanging by her side.
Yu Tang smiled slightly and turned to look at the young man's face behind him.
The eerie black patterns had spread to half of his face, fading as they were illuminated by the incoming light.
The demon's eyes were intensely red.
He gripped Yu Tang's hand tightly.
It trembled slightly.
"Don't go..." Lu Qingyuan's voice was hoarse, filled with pain: "Please, don't leave me..."
Yu Tang sighed softly.
Then, she grasped Lu Qingyuan's hand and pulled him into her arms.
They embraced tightly.
"If you're scared now, don't push me away anymore."
"And don't test me anymore."
Yu Tang emphasized, "I can tell you clearly that I like you whether you were the insecure person you were before or the narcissistic person you are now."
"I can't judge whether what you did was right or wrong. But our positions are different. I ask myself, if I had experienced what you went through, I'm afraid I wouldn't be half as rational as you are now."
The chanting in his mind was acting up again, and Yu Tang's face paled slightly, but he ignored it.
Instead, she continued to say to Lu Qingyuan, "I can see your kindness, which is why I am willing to stay by your side."
"So, stop underestimating yourself." He patted Lu Qingyuan's back and said, "You are the best little devil, and the person I like the most."
"Do you understand?"
The most beautiful words in the world are the affirmation of one's beloved.
Lu Qingyuan couldn't help but sob, hugging Yu Tang and pressing his head against Yu Tang's shoulder, nodding frantically.
"Um……"
The gate to heaven was closed, cutting off the light.
Yu Tang thought the space would return to darkness, but he found a faint light spreading outwards from beneath their feet.
It spread outwards little by little.
Until the entire space is fully illuminated.
After calming down, Lu Qingyuan let go of Yu Tang and sat down with him, but then grabbed Yu Tang's hand and they clasped hands.
She said, "Are you sure you won't dislike me?"
He muttered, "I was so weak back then, it makes me angry just looking at myself..."
Yu Tang found it somewhat amusing that he seemed to have returned to his usual self.
He then jokingly asked, "If I dislike you, will you let me go?"
"That won't do!" Lu Qingyuan gripped Yu Tang's hand even tighter. "You like me so much and have confessed to me so many times. If I let you go, you'll probably cry your heart out!"
He smiled at Yu Tang, his little sharp teeth looking exceptionally endearing: "So, in order to prevent you from crying your eyes out, I've decided to take pity on you and keep you by my side!"
"Hahaha, turning the tables on me!"
The system burst out laughing: [This Lu Qingyuan really dares to say anything!]
Yu Tang was helpless.
But mostly I felt happy.
After all, the fact that Lu Qingyuan could say such a thing shows that he truly felt safe this time.
Yu Tang was so excited that he wanted to set off firecrackers to celebrate.
"Yes, yes, yes..." Yu Tang rarely echoed Lu Qingyuan, "My little devil really has the heart of a bodhisattva. He's willing to sacrifice himself so as not to hurt me. I'm so moved I could cry..."
As she spoke, she even pretended to reach out and wipe the corner of her eye, displaying excellent acting skills.
Lu Qingyuan couldn't hide his smile even as he pursed his lips.
He snorted through his nose, leaned against Yu Tang's shoulder, played with the man's fingers, and said, "You're smart to know what's good for you."
"By the way, the second game ended a bit hastily, I didn't see anything." Yu Tang thought of Chen Shu and the others, and couldn't help but ask, "Do you know what happened to those people afterward?"
"Why should we care about them?" Lu Qingyuan's face darkened instantly. He straightened up and glared at Yu Tang: "Have you taken a fancy to that Chen Shu?"
Seeing Lu Qingyuan's peculiar thought process, Yu Tang was speechless.
She couldn't help but flick Lu Qingyuan's forehead with her finger: "What do you mean you're interested in! Can't you stop being so jealous? I'm just curious, is that not allowed?"
Lu Qingyuan rubbed his reddened forehead and grumbled, "Super-strong angel."
He reluctantly said, "They're all fine, nothing's wrong."
"How is Wang Zhibin doing?"
"He broke up with Jiang Yuan peacefully, and then told his wife about it."
His wife reacted calmly and said that she had actually noticed something a while ago.
But because she trusted Wang Zhibin, she didn't bring it up, only to now realize that her intuition was correct.
"Because both of their children are still in high school, and they thought that divorce would affect their children's studies, they temporarily signed an agreement to wait until the children are more stable before getting divorced."
No matter how much Wang Zhibin pleaded, his wife remained determined to divorce him.
After being betrayed in her relationship, this mother endured everything solely for the sake of her child.
After listening to Lu Qingyuan's story, Yu Tang was also somewhat moved.
"This can be considered Wang Zhibin's retribution."
He continued, "What about Jiang Yuan? How is she?"
“Jiang Yuan is quite principled.” Lu Qingyuan smiled. “She returned the house and car that Wang Zhibin gave her, quit her job, and switched to a foreign company, giving up her dream of marrying into a wealthy family.”
And I'm prepared to achieve happiness through my own hard work.
Yu Tang was taken aback, but he also felt a bit of admiration for this woman.
"Zhao Yuqing and Su An have come out as gay. However, they have not received support from their families. But they are not discouraged and are still trying to gain their families' understanding."
After speaking about these people, Lu Qingyuan stopped.
Yu Tang thought he would continue talking about Chen Shu, so he waited.
After waiting for a long time, Lu Qingyuan still didn't say anything.
I couldn't help but ask, "How is Chen Shu doing?"
"Want to know?" Lu Qingyuan had been waiting for this question. He narrowed his peach blossom eyes slightly, touched his lips with his free hand, and said.
"Kiss here, I'll tell you if it gets swollen."

Died for the fifth time for the villain (45)
[Hahaha, the Supreme God is so sassy!]
Yu Tang fell silent amidst the system's laughter.
However, a few seconds later, he beckoned to Lu Qingyuan with his finger and chuckled softly, "Come here..."
The system was shocked: [Host, you're not really going to do what he says, are you?!]
Yu Tang ignored him and waited for Lu Qingyuan to come closer.
Then he grabbed the other person by the back of the neck and kissed them.
Lu Qingyuan made that request out of habitual sarcasm; he didn't really believe that Yu Tang would listen to him.
So Yu Tang's initiative this time completely stunned him.
But it would be foolish not to eat the meat that's already in your mouth.
