Arc 8 – The Real World
Chapter 179

Chi Zhao silently glanced at Fu Yihe and then turned to walk out.

Fu Yihe pursed his lips. He didn’t say anything and didn’t show any signs of unhappiness and just quietly followed.

After taking a few steps and noticing that there was someone following behind him the entire time, Chi Zhao frowned and turned back, “Don’t follow me.”

Fu Yihe quietly stood a step away from him. His gaze remained focused on Chi Zhao. Seeing that Chi Zhao was truly a little angry, he took out the hand that was tucked in his pocket and looked a little at loss.

“I can’t go home with you?”

Listen to that! He could actually ask something like that so naturally! They don’t even know each other so of course he can’t.

Although those thoughts roared in his mind, when met with Fu Yihe’s pair of deep and gentle eyes, the words that came out from his mouth changed into a non-lethal mutter.

“……I go back to my place, you go back to yours.”

He had said it in a very small voice. Normally, one wouldn’t be able to hear him, but Fu Yihe blinked a few times and answered, “I can no longer go home.”

Chi Zhao was taken aback. He looked over.

The current Chi Zhao didn’t know anything. If Fu Yihe told the truth, he may completely be labelled as a fool who was addicted to science fiction. After some silence, Fu Yihe could only explain with another vague line, “I have no home now.”

Biological teleportation was an irreversible process. There was superb technology and a super intelligent system with precise control over there to help him, but there was nothing here. For example, it was like how it was for Chi Zhao when he was in an ancient world. Although he is very powerful and possesses insights and knowledge far surpassing ordinary people, one person cannot change the whole world, let alone suddenly advance the civilisation to how it would be like several thousand years in the future.

So what Fu Yihe said was true, he couldn’t go back. The home over there no longer belonged to him.

Chi Zhao didn’t expect his casual question to provoke such a painful response. He was left at loss for words for a long time, “Do you have no family?”

He was keenly aware of Chi Zhao’s emotional changes and, linking it to his previous experiences, he felt that acting pitiful in front of Chi Zhao was particularly useful. And so, after a short pause, Fu Yihe slowly shook his head, “None.”

“Not even one?”

Fu Yihe looked down, looking like he had touched a sore spot, “Not a single one.”

“T-then…….” Chi Zhao subconsciously looked around. He didn’t know what he was looking for, “You don’t even have a place to stay?”

That was indeed also the case. For the past three months, Fu Yihe had been busy running about like a spinning top. First, he was busy trying to escape from that village and later, he realised that he needed an identity card, so he was busy preparing the fake certificates for that. Along the way he also did a few small things to prepare for the future.

For those three months, he didn’t stay in one place for more than seven days and had stayed in a hotel every time. Fortunately, he did very well with the fake certificates, and it allowed him to avoid sleeping on the streets or look for illegally operating hotels.

Seeing Fu Yihe shake his head again, Chi Zhao furrowed his brows and was silent for a while. He turned around again and walked to the parking lot.

Fu Yihe raised the corners of his lips triumphally and placed his hands back in his pockets. He followed behind the person in front of him in a relaxed manner.

It was still the same as before.

Still very soft-hearted.

A driver’s licence was very easy to obtain, and most people could get it in a month. Chi Zhao was even faster and managed to get it in just one week. Chi Zhao was already used to these surprises. He didn’t think he was a driving genius and just felt that he might be a genius among geniuses.

……..

When he got home, Chi Zhao looked at the person who followed him back and warned, “I’m just letting you stay for one day. Tomorrow, you should go and find a place for yourself.”

Chi Zhao liked his place to be more homely. This place was furnished the way it was seven years ago but after he woke up seven years later, Chi Zhao found that his personality and mentality had changed a little. Chi Zhao however didn’t hate this kind of change, so he went along with the flow and added a few new additions to the place.

Fu Yihe’s gaze swept across the cabinet by the door. There were two decorations placed on it; one was a hollow, white marble ball and the other was a cute cat made out of clay about the size of a fist.

Fu Yihe laughed lightly and looked at Chi Zhao, “What if I can’t find one?”

“Even if you can’t find one, you need to leave. This place isn’t a hotel.”

Chi Zhao said this as he walked in but before he could take another step, he suddenly turned his head back and stared at Fu Yihe intently.

The sudden stare made Fu Yihe withdraw one of his feet, “What is it?”

Chi Zhao looked at him up and down and then his focus went to his stylish windbreaker, “That’s not right. You don’t seem like someone who doesn’t have money and can only stay in a hotel.”

After a second of silence, Chi Zhao’s expression fell.

“You’re really trying to scam me!”

Fu Yihe: “……….”

Fu Yihe couldn’t laugh or cry. Chi Zhao on the other end was furious. He clearly knew that this person was here to scam him, yet he had brought that person home. Wasn’t this pretty much helping the traffickers count money after being sold.

Chi Zhao’s expression was unkind, “Speak. Where did you find out about the news of my illness? Have you been eyeing me the whole time and only approached me after planning everything out?”

When he said those words, his right hand was clenched tightly while his left hand was tense. Whenever Chi Zhao was about to beat up someone, this was how he got ready for it. Alarm bells immediately went off in Fu Yihe’s mind.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t beat Chi Zhao. If they really fought, even ten Chi Zhao’s wouldn’t be able to go against him, but if the wife wants to hit him, how could he hide? If he did, his wife would definitely be angry but if he didn’t, he would get hit a few times and his wife would still be angry.

…..

In short, he was doomed.

Fu Yihe was helpless, “I’m not scamming you. I’m really your boyfriend.”

If he wasn’t afraid of scaring Chi Zhao, he would have said that he was his husband instead. Unfortunately, the certificates from those worlds are no longer useful in this world and there was no other evidence so he could only claim that he is his boyfriend.

Chi Zhao clearly didn’t believe in him. As he drove back, his mind had worked very hard, and he was very certain that he had never seen this person before let alone hear of the name Fu Yihe. Since he was young, he had always focused on studying and never had the time to have a boyfriend!

When Chi Zhao’s fist was about to hit Fu Yihe’s face, Chi Zhao wasn’t even able to see what moved when he found his hands restricted behind his back. What shocked him even more was that Fu Yihe only used one hand to restrain both his hands and he couldn’t even turn around. In a position that resembled an embrace, he had completely subdued him.

Seeing Fu Yihe get closer and closer, Chi Zhao let out a profanity. In order to prevent him from struggling, Fu Yihe used his free hand to support the back of his head and proceeded to press against the nape, gently rubbing his fingers against the skin there. In an instant, Chi Zhao was let stunned in place. He widened his eyes and looked at Fu Yihe in a dazed and confused manner.

This act was a secret both Fu Yihe and Chi Zhao was familiar with and it was also the result of Fu Yihe’s training. Even if the memory was gone and time was erased, these habits that have been engraved into the soul remained unchanged.

Fu Yihe’s eyes darkened several degrees. He leaned forward with some restraint and gently touched Chi Zhao’s lips with his own.

It was just a light touch.

It had happened too fast. It was so fast, it was almost impossible for Chi Zhao to feel it properly and Chi Zhao even felt a trace of disappointment inside.

For a moment, he had a strong urge to throw himself into Fu Yihe’s arms and hug him tightly so that he wouldn’t leave him anymore.

But that only lasted for a moment. Chi Zhao returned to his senses and saw that Fu Yihe had already at some point in time released him.

“Felt familiar?”

Chi Zhao opened his mouth. It took him a long time to find his voice.

“…..Over the past seven years, have you come to see me?”

Fu Yihe was stunned.

He didn’t understand the meaning of Chi Zhao’s question. Chi Zhao didn’t receive an answer and so he asked again, “If you are really my boyfriend, then in the seven years when I was in a coma, have you come to see me?”

Memories can be confusing and eyes can be deceiving, but the feeling and the trembling of the soul couldn’t be faked. Even if Chi Zhao wanted to deny it, he couldn’t.

Staring at Chi Zhao closely, Fu Yihe was silent. A few long seconds later, he flattened the corners of his lips and lowered his eyes.

“No.”

Unlike the act he had put on earlier outside, Fu Yihe’s current emotions were real. No one could accept that their loved one almost died. No, it wasn’t that Chi Zhao almost died, Chi Zhao had in fact really died. If he didn’t have enough spiritual power or luck, he would’ve completely disappeared from this world.

Mentally, Fu Yihe knew that this was something he couldn’t change but emotionally, he would feel like his heart was torn apart at just the mere thought of it.

Even if he couldn’t see his eyes, Chi Zhao could sense the pain and sadness overflowing from his heart. Chi Zhao wasn’t sad, and he also didn’t immediately question him. After a while, he asked, “Why didn’t you come?”

Fu Yihe’s voice was very low. As long as Chi Zhao wanted to know, he would not hide anything from him. He was however afraid that Chi Zhao would show fear or disgust after hearing the truth.

Even if it was just a little bit, it was enough to slam his heart that was originally soaring in the heavens because he had found Chi Zhao, directly into hell.

“Because I was serving a sentence.”

Immediately after saying this, Fu Yihe nervously raised his eyes. Chi Zhao was as expected very surprised. He had his mouth open in astonishment, but he didn’t make a sound. Fu Yihe didn’t dare relax so he just continued to watch him nervously.

It took Chi Zhao a long time to recover from the shock. He had a lot of things he wanted to ask, but he didn’t know where to start and he didn’t know if it was appropriate for him to ask. After pondering for a long time, he finally asked the question he wanted to know the answer to the most.

“Are you a good person?”

Fu Yihe smiled bitterly, “Probably not.”

He had done a lot of bad things. He had been involved with the dark and crooked circle for more than ten years. Although he had never harmed civilians or used the power he had to deal with any innocent or unarmed people, he was known as the mad dog that everyone was wary of and a white-eyed wolf who would never warm up to anyone within that circle.

“I have said this many times,” Fu Yihe forced a smile, “but I want to say it again. I will never hurt you and I will never force you, because you are my lover. I love you. As long as it is something you want, I will give it all to you, including my life.”

“So, please, don’t be afraid of me, and don’t hate me.”

He and Chi Zhao were originally very close. He reached out a little and pulled Chi Zhao into his arms and kissed the top of his hair. Not sensing any resistance from the person in his arms, he closed his eyes and tightened his hold even further.

“You can tame me. Chi Zhao, let me change according to your wishes, okay?”
