This was a confession which made Ren Jing feel warm down to the bottom of his heart.

A moment ago, Ren Jing had felt like he was in a freezing abyss. But now, he felt as if he was surrounded by flowers, a warm springtime coming onto sight.

Ye Chen was very embarrassed, but he also felt mushy upon finishing his words: “..worrying about the gains and the losses.” He truly meant it, he had gotten so much happiness that he was afraid he would lose everything.

Ye Chen still wanted to say something but Ren Jing had kissed him, giving him a reply using feverish, passionate, and messy kisses. XotM J

Ye Chen’s mouth felt numb and his heart felt itchy, but he simply closed his eyes and acted compliant. The two who were dazed by the intimate kisses could feel their hearts which were separated by their chests beating in sync.

It’s nice that the person I love also loves me. I cherish him and he cherishes me, too.

 

When the two parted, Ye Chen gasped for breath. Ren Jing said, “No need to worry about the gains and the losses, Chen Chen, I’ll never leave you.”

d2etkW

Ye Chen pursed his lips as he looked at Ren Jing. “I know,” he added, “I’ll never leave you, either.”

Ren Jing couldn’t resist kissing Ye Chen again. He was a lot calmer this time, kissing Ye Chen leisurely and carefully. The surging emotions at the bottom of Ren Jing’s heart were conveyed to Ye Chen through the contact of their lips.

If Ren Jing’s profound love could turn into an essence, it would probably turn into a soft ball of cotton which would wrap Ye Chen up, bringing warmth to Ye Chen who was immersed in the cold.

When they parted again, Ren Jing’s big member had become somewhat disobedient. QA0OY2

Ye Chen felt quite limp and numb, then he was suddenly reminded of that night… It was true that he was drunk, but actually, he remembered some parts of it. He felt very uncomfortable at first, but afterwards…

 

Ye Chen’s eyes glittered, yet his voice was very firm when he said, “Let’s do it.”

Ren Jing felt a buzz in his head. This was the second time Ye Chen had ‘invited’ him. 8bF2Ql

Who could even endure when the person they cherished at the tip of their heart mentioned such a thing twice?

Ren Jing’s reasoning told him that he shouldn’t. He should consider this carefully. Now is not the right time yet, is not the right time…not. In the end, he couldn’t utter even a word.

Ye Chen’s cheeks were burning crimson. His expression of plucking up his courage had greatly stirred Ren Jing up. “If you go slower…it shouldn’t…shouldn’t hurt too much. If I really can’t make it tomorrow, I’ll ask for a leave…” His volume became lower and lower as he spoke that it was almost inaudible to the end. It was really too embarrassing!

If Ren Jing still could hold back, then he truly wasn’t a man anymore. G37IFo

Ren Jing held the back of Ye Chen’s head then kissed his lips.

Ye Chen felt so nervous that he almost forgot how to take a breath.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Nevertheless, Ren Jing didn’t keep kissing his lips. He traced down his fair-skinned chin, to his neck, collarbone, and then…

Ye Chen suddenly opened his eyes wide. He panted for breath rapidly, feeling riled up. Lwg9qE

………………

After a while, Ye Chen eventually cried.

Ye Chen woke up in the wee hours. He couldn’t move a muscle, looking like a carved sculpture groveling on the bed. Even his fingers were too stiff to budge.

Brother Chen had perfectly depicted what it meant by ‘the evils we bring on ourselves are the hardest to bear’. lgkxrR

It hurts, it hurts so much! It felt as if the entire lower half of his body wasn’t his anymore.

The most shameful thing was, how did he cry into that kind of mess!?

At first, he cried because it hurt. Later, he cried because it felt good. In any case, it seemed as if he was possessed by Sister Lin that his tears wouldn’t stop flowing.

Ye Chen noticed that not only was he unable to move a single step, his voice had also turned hoarse. He had shouted too fiercely that he was unable to blurt even a syllable out now. STLxn8

We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.

How shameful! Thinking back to what he had done, Ye Chen was flushed with shame. He wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it.

Alright my shit! Ye Chen felt extremely wronged. He couldn’t move or say anything, he could only lay down on his stomach. xSY9fJ

Ye Chen replied, his voice hoarse, “It’s not your fault.” Then he continued angrily, “It’s its fault!” As he said so, he used his knee to nudge Ren Jing’s big member.

As a result, he kicked an iron plate. MgNvjk

Ye Chen felt like crying again. “Why…why is it…” perked up again!?

Ren Jing said, “Don’t be afraid, just ignore it.”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Ye Chen could only be obedient. He didn’t dare say anything or provoke Ren Jing anymore. He was so well-behaved like a poor little boy.

Ren Jing adored yet felt distressed seeing Ye Chen like this. He really wished he could hold Ye Chen in his palm and carefully take good care of him.

 

Ye Chen felt wronged for a while before his stomach disappointingly rumbled.

Ren Jing promptly asked, “Are you hungry?” PFanV1

Ye Chen nodded.

So hungry… 

Ye Chen had only eaten a little bit because he was feeling blue at noon. Then he proceeded to have vigorous exercise afterwards and immediately missed dinner. He slept as soon as they were done and only woke up now, how could he not be hungry?

Ren Jing, “Wait a bit, I’ll get something for you to eat.” HZoFfp

Ye Chen replied in a whisper, “Alright.”

After Ren Jing left, Ye Chen lay in bed. He grimaced in pain right away. It hurts so much! He promptly turned his body over and lay on his stomach again.

 

Not long after, Ren Jing returned. BJeojD

Ye Chen was laying face down on the bed, thus his straight, fair-skinned legs were directly exposed to Ren Jing…

Ren Jing’s Adam’s apple bobbed. In the end, he discarded his ‘evil desire’ and came over to hug Ye Chen instead. “Do you want to drink water first?”

Ye Chen nodded.

Ren Jing poured water for him, bringing it to the corner of his mouth. 4v1hg

Ye Chen thought of sitting up, but the moment he moved his legs, he accidentally tugged a certain spot and immediately felt like crying because of the pain.

Ren Jing hurriedly stated, “Don’t move, I’ll feed you.”

What else could Ye Chen do… He could only let Ren Jing serve him like he was a handicapped person.

After drinking some water, he felt much more comfortable. It felt as if he had gained some of his strength back.

At this time, the doorbell rang. It seemed that the midnight snack had arrived.

Ren Jing went to open the door and pushed the dining cart in.

Smelling the scent of rice, Ye Chen felt like he had missed seven or eight meals, he could even swallow an elephant the moment he opened his mouth! oMXeIs

Taking his body’s condition into consideration, Ren Jing had ordered a light-flavored congee and pastries.

Ye Chen was so starved that anything he ate tasted very appetizing. He ate all of the minced pork congee and finally felt his body recovering, more strength coming back to him.

It wasn’t a good idea to sleep right after a meal, so Ren Jing suggested, “Would you like to watch a movie?”

Ye Chen replied, “Don’t wanna.”

Ren Jing asked again, “How about playing games?”

Ye Chen’s eyes brightened up. “Sure! Where’s my cellphone?” jlKCq3

Ren Jing brought the cellphone to him. Ye Chen leaned against Ren Jing’s arms and clicked on a certain mobile game.

He asked Ren Jing joyfully, “Can you play this?”

Ren Jing shook his head. “I’ve never played it.”

Ye Chen immediately felt proud of himself. “I’ll teach you. I’m pretty good with this, you know!” M3xY6z

He entered a match and selected a super cool hero—Li Bai.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

He told Ren Jing, “Watch me commit massacres everywhere!”

It turned out that Brother Chen was hoping for too much. He, who (actually) specialized in using Little Lu Ban, was easily feeding the enemies.

After dying three times in a row, Ye Chen explained, “This happened because I’m not in a good condition and is somewhat in pain…”

Ren Jing said, “Mn, that would affect your performance.” yDBKjT

Ye Chen, “It did! Li Bai is such a difficult hero to play!” He glanced over at Ren Jing and asked, “Why don’t you try playing?”

Ren Jing shook his head. “I don’t know how to play.”

Ye Chen felt proud of himself. He said, “Let me teach you. The first skill is used this way, the second skill this way, then the ultimate skill…” He explained everything here and there, feeling so proud of himself he could fly.

  dCS89T

He handed his cellphone to Ren Jing. “Try it out.”

Ren Jing hesitated.

Ye Chen said again, “It’s okay, if you lose then so be it. No worries!”

Ren Jing, “Alright.” eyisFj

Ye Chen had gotten ready to comfort Ren Jing later. Afterall, everyone who had played King’s Glory before knew that Li Bai was a hero who was difficult to handle and play. Even those who had played for a few months may not be able to use him properly, let alone a beginner.

However… Did Ye Chen know what ‘being smacked in the face’ meant?

 

Ye Chen was shocked when he saw Li Bai’s first skill slashing through and killing two of the enemies. The second skill penetrated the enemies’ armor and the ultimate skill completely ‘kill stole’ the enemies. Then, Ren Jing used Li Bai’s skill to ‘return to the starting point’ and killed another three enemies… 2sQO09

“Is…this really the first time you played this game?”

Ren Jing replied, “I didn’t have time to play games before.” As he said so, he killed the short-legged Lu Ban.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Ye Chen, “!!!”

When the first round ended, the battle record of 12 kills, 3 deaths, and 9 assists left Ye Chen stunned. nQ73yZ

Ren Jing was the one in control, Ye Chen was the one who ultimately kicked the bucket.

How dreadful!

Ye Chen looked at Ren Jing as if he had seen a monster. “You…this is…”

Ren Jing chuckled and said, “This character is quite difficult to play indeed. If you want to play well, you should concentrate.” a356OT

Is this important now??

Ye Chen was in high spirits. He urged Ren Jing, “Play it again, I want…I still want to watch you play.”

Ren Jing complied. “Sure.”

  mOYeI4

After an hour had passed, Ye Chen was completely won over. It was true that Ren Jing hadn’t played the game before, but his brain was pretty responsive and his hands were extremely nimble, his reflexes were also particularly quick—in a simple and crude way, he could be said to be a genius…

Such a genius like him… Ye Chen had seen one before. When he had dragged his younger cousin into the pit (of gaming), he had been astonished by his cousin’s outstanding Han Xin.

To compare oneself with others…truly infuriated Ye Chen! 9C4Jzb

Ye Chen cheerfully watched Ren Jing play the game for two hours.

After finishing another round, Ren Jing looked at Ye Chen and said, “Time to sleep.”

Ye Chen had disappointment written all over his face.

Ren Jing pinched his cheek. “I’ll play it again tomorrow when I’m free.” UgN4SD

Ye Chen’s eyes glimmered. “Really?”

“Mhm.” Let alone playing games, Ren Jing would accompany Ye Chen to do anything as long as it was what Ye Chen wanted to do.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Eventually, the two hugged each other sweetly and slept soundly.

Ye Chen obviously asked for leave the next day. Even though he could get out of the bed, it still hurt too much to walk. If he went to shoot the movie in this condition, he would probably pass out at the shooting site.

He clung around Ren Jing and nagged him to play for the whole day. He was so happy all over, wishing he could go to his uncle’s house in a flash and drag his arrogant cousin out to let him see what ‘genius’ truly meant!

Ren Jing is truly so amazing! Ye Chen himself wasn’t aware that he had become Ren Jing’s fanboy now…

Near the evening, Ren Jing went out because he had a business to take care of. Ye Chen joyfully rolled a few times in bed. 3BDuk5

Death System’s voice resounded faintly in Ye Chen’s head. “Triggering a compulsory mission…”

Ye Chen was startled. “What?”

Death System continued, “Compulsory mission: Tell Ren Jing about Death System. The time limit is twenty days.”

Ye Chen gasped. “What kind of nonsense are you talking about?” QIbvod

Death System said slowly, “The compulsory mission must be completed. Otherwise, all of your remaining life points will be deducted.”

Ye Chen turned his body over and got up at once. “Death System! Do you fucking really want to go to hell!?”

Anyway, I’m not too familiar with Chinese gaming terms, so please do correct me if you see any of the terms being translated incorrectly. I’ve only worked on three or four chapters of an e-sports manhua in the past, so I only know some bits of it. Really, kudos to all of the gaming novel translators out there, y’all the true MVPs.

Translator's Note

This refers to a woman named Lin Dayu, who was a character of a classic 18th century Chinese novel. She is portrayed as a well-educated, intelligent, witty and beautiful young woman of physical frailness who is somewhat prone to occasional melancholy. She died at a very young age too, apparently. (CN explanations here.)

Translator's Note

It’s weird I know, but it’s just to say that his thing is hard LOLOL xD.

Translator's Note

I was reminded of this meme LOL: 9dp0Ot

Translator's Note

This is VERY delish!! Usually it’s only garnished (?) with meatballs-shaped minced pork, or could also be called “pork balls”. To increase the aroma and flavor, we usually add a bit of sesame oil to the congee. You might also want to add coriander if you like it. Chinese recipe here, English recipe here (they’re different recipes so the ingredients, way to cook, etc might differ. Choose whichever you think would fit your taste the most!)

Li Bai is one of the heroes in King’s Glory. In history, he was a famous Chinese poet famous for his romantic poems. In the game, he’s an assassin hero who is a bit hard to use because of his control apparently. Player could take advantage of his flexibility to avoid enemies’ attacks. You could read more about King’s Glory’s Li Bai here or here (Chinese).

li-bai

Translator's Note

Lu Ban is another one of the heroes in King’s Glory. In history, he was a Chinese structural engineer, inventor, and carpenter during the Zhou Dynasty. He is revered as the Chinese god of builders and contractors. In the game, he’s a petite archer hero. He’s easy to move due to his moving speed, thus he could escape easily. But he might be vulnerable to heroes like Li Bai because Li Bai’s invisibility and rapid dispatch skills could immediately kill Lu Ban since he didn’t have a shifting skill. Learn more about Lu Ban here (Chinese).

Translator's Note

In multiplayer video games, particularly in MOBAs, first-person shooters, MMORPGs and MUDs, kill stealing is the practice of obtaining credit for killing an enemy when another player has put more effort into the kill.

Translator's Note

Like mentioned in previous T/Ns, Li Bai has a good flexibility, which is also in one of his skills. With this skill, he’d be able to ‘teleport’ quickly, avoiding the enemies. CN explanations here.

Translator's Note

To kick the bucket is an English idiom, considered a euphemistic, informal, or slang term meaning “to die”. Its origin remains unclear, though there have been several theories.

Translator's Note

Han Xin is one of the heroes in King’s Glory. In history, Han Xin was a military general who served Liu Bang during the Chu–Han Contention and contributed greatly to the founding of the Han dynasty. Han Xin was named as one of the “Three Heroes of the early Han dynasty”, along with Zhang Liang and Xiao He. In the game, he’s an assassin hero. He has a skill which could easily penetrates enemies’ armor. His physical attack could give him enough “output” to clear the course and resist the enemies’ attack, making him pretty much an OP character. I think this is why Ye Chen was “astonished” seeing his cousin playing the game using Han Xin. Read more about Han Xin here (Chinese).
