Pandora’s Box [14]
When injecting the drug, Chen Liguo had been wondering what kind of ability he would get. Whether it would be wind, water, lightning, or perhaps something else? After gaining an ability, would he need to seize the opportunity to escape…..
It turned out that Chen Liguo thought too much.
When he went back to the laboratory Chen Liguo became deeply aware as to what ‘being ordinary is a blessing’ meant.
Most of the people in the lab stood at their tables with their backs to Chen Liguo. Thus Chen Liguo saw row upon rows of slippery smooth butts. These butts were big and small, some were pale and some dark. Some even had moles. It was so spicy he wished he could poke his eyes out.
Chen Liguo cried and told the system, “My eyes are going to be burnt blind.”
The system said, “Isn’t this what you wanted?”
Chen Liguo: “…… I have never wanted this.”
The system asked, “Then what do you want?”
Chen Liguo asked, “Are Bai Yanlou and his brothers back?”
System: “……” I know what you want you spicy chicken Chen Liguo.
Bai Yanlou was a little restless when he went out. His hunch had always been accurate, so he was very careful when he handled everything. However, nothing strange happened even when everything was over, so Bai Yanlou asked the base if there were any troubles.
The people at the base said that nothing in particular happened, it was very calm all day.
Bai Yanlou asked, “What about He Chenyou, was there anything strange with him?”
“Professor He? No.” That person usually paid special attention to Chen Liguo in the laboratory. “He experimented all day.”
So Bai Yanlou set his heart at ease. However, in the end he had relaxed too early……
The entire base was very lively when Bai Yanlou came back. Chen Liguo really wanted to go see but he couldn’t because of his character.
However, to Chen Liguo’s surprise Bai Yanlou came to see him along with several brothers in his team.
“He Chenyou.” When Bai Yanlou’s voice sounded from behind him Chen Liguo suddenly felt a little nervous.
Bai Yanlou asked, “Was everything all right today?”
When Chen Liguo heard this he wondered why Bai Yanlou would suddenly ask if he was alright. Could it be that the fact that he had developed the drug was exposed? However, he still turned his head around with a poker face and with an even bigger poker face looked Bai Yanlou up and down.
Chen Liguo had known for a long time that Bai Yanlou had a good figure but he had never seen it so clearly under bright lights.
Every part of Bai Yanlou’s skin and hair were all extremely fine. Chen Liguo slowly glanced over a certain part then took in a breath of cold air.
Chen Liguo exclaimed incredulously, “How in the world does it go in?!”
System: “……” Shouldn’t you ask yourself this question?
Chen Liguo: “Just what is the limit of the human body……”
The system didn’t want to talk to Chen Liguo and simply threw a pair of 800 degree glasses at him.
Bai Yanlou felt that today’s He Chenyou’s was a little strange. He observed him carefully then asked, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Chen Liguo was wearing protective clothing and his glasses could be seen from within the protective goggles. However, up till now Bai Yanlou hadn’t noticed that the glasses actually didn’t contain any nearsighted glass in it.
However, Chen Liguo wasn’t afraid of being discovered either. After all, who didn’t want to have abilities? He Chenyou was trapped here against his will, it would be strange if he didn’t try every possible way to escape.
Chen Liguo said, “Yes.” His eyes were once again glued to Bai Yanlou’s chest.
Bai Yanlou’s pecs and abs were very beautiful. It was the kind of beautiful that belonged to oriental people, brimming with power yet not exaggerated. Just by looking you could imagine it’s compact feeling when touching it.
Chen Liguo had already secretly touched it many times now but observing it so closely still made his face flush and his heart race.
Bai Yanlou felt as though Chen Liguo’s gaze was stripping him. He asked, “He Chenyou, what’s the matter with you?”
Chen Liguo thought to himself, ‘Nothing’s the matter with me, I just want to face you and rub for a round…….’
Bai Yanlou walked over and reached out to swat his head, asking, “You researched yourself silly?”
Chen Liguo looked at the two points on Bai Yanlou’s chest. His nose felt hot. He actually got a nosebleed.
Chen Liguo: “….. I can’t go on, too stimulating.”
The system considerately offered, “I can poke your eyes blind.”
Chen Liguo was shocked by the system’s sense of humanity.
There were several brothers who went out together with Bai Yanlou here as well. Of course, these people were also mercilessly looked at by Chen Liguo. However, with Bai Yanlou’s remarkable big chest and perky butt before him other people couldn’t even enter Chen Liguo’s eyes.
Chen Liguo said, “Too thin, fail.”
System: “……”
Chen Liguo said, “This one’s pretty good. Just their butt is too small.”
System: “……”
Chen Liguo said, “This one’s butt is big enough but just how could their chest be so flat?”
The system said, “Chen Liguo, do you think that you’re a landlord selecting a wife?”
Feeling wronged, Chen Liguo said, “It’s not like I want to look. You try the feeling of turning and seeing only shining white butts. Don’t have an appetite at all.”
The system said, “Blame me?”
Chen Liguo said, “The drug you developed can do nothing but carry this pot.”

Bai Yanlou didn’t know that his dear was going off the rails with his eyes. He just felt that today’s Chen Liguo was a little strange. Bai Yanlou said, “He Chenyou, are you all right?” After saying this he smelled a slight bloody scent.
Bai Yanlou’s expression changed. He asked, “Are you injured anywhere?”
Chen Liguo froze then quickly shook his head.
Bai Yanlou didn’t listen at all and directly peeled off Chen Liguo’s protective gear.
The protective clothing was removed and Bai Yanlou saw Chen Liguo’s bleeding nose. He took out a paper towel and helped Chen Liguo wipe it, then frowned, “How come it’s still bleeding?”
Chen Liguo slowly closed his eyes. He thought, he shouldn’t continue looking down. If he looked down again he would fall into Bai Yanlou’s arms and rub his nice waistline.
Bai Yanlou asked, “He Chenyou?”
Chen Liguo coughed lowly and then slowly said, “I’m fine.”
Bai Yanlou said, “Are you okay? If you don’t make it clear today then there’s no need to experiment in the future.”
Hearing this Chen Liguo’s heart trembled. He thought, ‘How does Bai Yanlou know that I don’t want to experiment anymore?’ Alas…… But he still had to pretend that he was being forced by Bai Yanlou. He said, “I’ve developed a new drug.”
Bai Yanlou heard this and knit his brows. He questioned, “Have you not rested at all since I left?”
Wronged, Chen Liguo thought, ‘How can I sleep ah?’ As soon as he closed his eyes there were shining white bodies, plump ones and thin ones, old ones and young ones. He felt like he had eaten this entire life’s supply of meat.
Bai Yanlou coldly questioned, “Do you want to force yourself to death?”
However, Chen Liguo didn’t reply to his question, merely turned back to the lab and brought out a purple reagent.
The purple reagent was held in a glass tube. Light spots could be seen floating in it at the slightest shake. Nothing more beautiful could be imagined.
Chen Liguo told Bai Yanlou, “This is my new drug.”
Bai Yanlou reached out and accepted the drug.
Chen Liguo said, “It is already very refined. The ordinary people that couldn’t be changed with the former drug can turn into an ability user with this one.”
Bai Yanlou’s breathing immediately became heavy. He asked, “Really?”
Chen Liguo nodded.
Bai Yanlou’s gaze was stuck to the drug. Then he suddenly opened his mouth and asked, “So you tested it on yourself?”
Who didn’t want to be an ability user? He Chenyou had also used the drug on himself in the original world but he wasn’t too lucky and was too weak and did not become an ability user. However, the one acting in this world was Chen Liguo and the system, the great scientist was here. Thus the reagent was improved and Chen Liguo also became someone with abilities.
But this was no fucking use. Chen Liguo felt that he would have been better off without this fraudulent ability.
Chen Liguo nodded slowly. This matter couldn’t be concealed from Bai Yanlou anyway. Everything would be revealed so long as he tested it with the special metal.
Bai Yanlou was interested and asked, “What is your ability?”
Quick-Wittedly, Chen Liguo vaguely said, “Sight.”
Bai Yanlou asked, “What can you see? Can you see far away?”
Chen Liguo said, “Pretty much.”
Bai Yanlou surmised that it was clairvoyance, so he pointed at somewhere far away and asked, “What’s written on the quilt that’s drying upstairs?”
Chen Liguo: “……” What quilt drying upstairs? How come he hadn’t seen it?
However, when being stared at by Bai Yanlou like this, Chen Liguo could only brace himself and spit out a word, “Happiness.”
Bai Yanlou said, “It really is clairvoyance.”
Chen Liguo: “……” I just randomly said something, even I’m afraid.
Bai Yanlou said, “It’s good that it’s clairvoyance. If your ability was x-ray vision then I can only poke your eyes blind.”
Chen Liguo: “…………”
Chen Liguo wasn’t the first to gain x-ray vision. In fact, the range of their abilities weren’t large and they basically functioned as gamekeepers. With them there they could handle hidden things with just a glance. Of course, with the exception of things stuffed in the bum.
Fortunately, Chen Liguo had avoided a calamity. He drew a cross over his chest.
Because Chen Liguo had developed the drug Bai Yanlou who had just come back from outside hurried away again. Leaving with him was Chen Liguo who carried three tubes of the drug.
These purple drugs were given as a gift from Bai Yanlou to a partner whom the fortification drug had failed on.
Bai Yanlou’s plan once again advanced——This was all thanks to Chen Liguo.
The drug Chen Liguo developed was good news for the entire base. Especially for Wang Yangzi. When she thought how her child would still have the opportunity to gain abilities after growing up she cried tears of joy.
“Thank you Professor He.” Wang Yangzi said. “I really don’t know what I would do without you.”
However, Chen Liguo didn’t look at her at all and continued to experiment with his head bowed.
“Professor He.” Wang Yangzi asked. “D-do you hate me now?”
Chen Liguo thought, ‘It’s not that I hate you but that I don’t want to take advantage of you. Girl, quickly go. If you try and talk to me again I’m going to turn my head away!”
Wang Yangzi grabbed Chen Liguo’s hand. She asked, “Professor He?”
Chen Liguo pulled his hand back. He indifferently said, “Leave.”
Wang Yangzi’s smile froze on her face.
After a while Chen Liguo heard the sound of Wang Yangzi closing the door. But this wasn’t important. The important thing was that the completion degree on Wang Yangzi’s head rose again.
This proved that the path Chen Liguo chose was correct. Wang Yangzi really did want her child to gain abilities.
Chen Liguo: “I pity the hearts of parents all across the world ah.”
The system asked, “Miss home?”
Chen Liguo scratched his chin and said, “I do ah, I’ve always missed home.”
The system said, “Endure a bit more, soon.”
Chen Liguo showed a smile and said, “But these worlds are pretty good. At the very least, I won’t be able to see Bai Yanlou’s white butt after going home……”
System: “……”
After undergoing careful observation from Chen Liguo basically everyone’s limbs and bodies looked the same color to Chen Liguo. At least, it was just a matter of how different they were.
However, Bai Yanlou was different from ordinary people. After secretly observing him he found that this person actually had no flaws. He was perfect from head to toe and wasn’t like a living person at all.
For the first time Chen Liguo had the impulse to lick someone from top to bottom.
Chen Liguo had originally thought that this world would develop smoothly and that Wang Yangzi’s destiny completion degree would become full after her child grew a bit older and used the drug.
However, the affairs of the world were always changing and Chen Liguo found himself sick.
This world’s medical level was very high but there were still incurable diseases. When Chen Liguo found out that he had won the prize of misfortune his entire person was stupefied.
The system said, “There are still 366 days until the end of your life.”
Chen Liguo asked, “Why not 365 days?”
The system said, “Next year is a leap year.”
Chen Liguo: “……”
This disease was first discovered by the system. It looked into it only to find out that there was no cure for this was He Chenyou’s fate.
Chen Liguo: “Is it really okay for the system to choose such a body for the host?”
The system said, “If you have a problem then go file a complaint against me ah.”
Chen Liguo: “……” The system who refused to give a method to complain was just too powerful.
After suddenly getting this news Chen Liguo was full of compassion when he looked at everything around him.
Bai Yanlou was so busy these days he hadn’t come home and was completely clueless to the fact that his beloved professor was about to leave him.
The speed of Chen Liguo’s research began to slow down. He couldn’t help it. As long as he stood for a long time now he would get a nosebleed.
Chen Liguo: “I feel like great aunt has visited my nose.”
System: “……”
Bai Yanlou was busy for a few months before he was finally able to catch a breath. When he came home he saw Chen Liguo sitting in the cage reading a book. He looked at his watch and noticed that it was 10 in the morning. Chen Liguo should have gone to the lab.
Bai Yanlou asked, “How come you’re here?”
Chen Liguo looked up at him and found that there was a wound on Bai Yanlou’s stomach. He said, “En, resting.”
Bai Yanlou asked, “Not feeling well?”
Chen Liguo nodded.
Bai Yanlou said, “Then take a break.”
Both of them didn’t look very good. Chen Liguo’s face was almost transparent and pale while Bai Yanlou had a kind of miserable pallor.
Bai Yanlou took a shower, changed his clothes, then sat next to Chen Liguo and gathered him up into his arms.
Although there was an addition of a cage in the room it became a situation where Bai Yanlou slept with Chen Liguo.
Bai Yanlou rubbed Chen Liguo’s black hair. He asked, “He Chenyou do you want to leave?”
Chen Liguo was stunned. He asked, “Why do you ask this?”
Bai Yanlou didn’t speak.
After a moment of silence Chen Liguo said, “Of course I want to leave. Who would want to live in a cage?” This was a very sincere answer, completely outside of Bai Yanlou’s expectations.
Bai Yanlou said, “Okay, I’ll let you go.”
Chen Liguo: “……” W-wait a minute, where do I go to see your white bum if you let me go?!
Bai Yanlou said, “But you have to leave the formula for the drug behind.”
This demand was to be expected.
Chen Liguo looked at Bai Yanlou’s indifferent expression and slowly nodded.
Finally Bai Yanlou and Chen Liguo concluded the deal. The contents of the deal were as follows: Bai Yanlou would let Chen Liguo go but Chen Liguo must leave the formula behind. After leaving he was not allowed to tell others the recipe. The deal was scheduled for a year later and in this period of time Chen Liguo also had to meet all of Bai Yanlou’s requirements.
When Chen Liguo heard that it would be a year later he immediately agreed. He would be going to another world a year later anyway, would he still be afraid of being sent away by Bai Yanlou?!
The only thing that would trouble Chen Liguo a bit was that he had to fully meet all of Bai Yanlou’s requirements.
Bai Yanlou seemed to want to play with Chen Liguo enough to break him and every method of playing was tried out.
When Chen Liguo hugged Bai Yanlou’s neck and cried ‘no more’ Bai Yanlou smiled and kissed his nose, saying, “You continue to hug me so tightly yet say no?”
Then he grabbed Chen Liguo’s hand and pressed it on top of his belly. Chen Liguo’s hand clearly felt a part of his belly bulge out.
Chen Liguo: “……” So it really can fit in. The human body really is frightening.
Time passed in the blink of an eye and a year’s time quickly arrived.
Chen Liguo had more and more nosebleeds. So much that he felt that if he were in elementary school he could probably dye the neck scarfs of the entire year red.
The system was at a loss on how to reply to Chen Liguo’s metaphor. It found that Chen Liguo’s literary skills were amazing recently. Was this the final brilliance before death?
Bai Yanlou still didn’t know that Chen Liguo was going to die.
He was in a bit of an irritable mood recently and wasn’t as gentle as before.
Chen Liguo knew what he was grumpy about. The pet that had been kept for so long was about to be sent away. It was correct for the owner to be a little grumpy.
When doing it Bai Yanlou would often ask Chen Liguo if he really wanted to go.
Chen Liguo always answered positively when asked this, so he was often done until he passed out.
Everytime Chen Liguo fainted he would scold Bai Yanlou for being scum, but he would also add a few more scores by virtue of his beautiful chest and butt.
Chen Liguo woke up in a daze. He wiped his nose with his hand and found that he was having a nosebleed again.
Bai Yanlou furrowed his brows and asked him why he was having a nosebleed again.
Chen Liguo said, “En, internal heat.”
Bai Yanlou was somewhat skeptical.
Chen Liguo immediately changed the topic. He asked, “When can I leave?”
Hearing the word ‘leave’ Bai Yanlou immediately exploded. He said, “He Chenyou, you just think about leaving all day long?”
Chen Liguo closed his eyes.
Bai Yanlou left with the slam of the door.
It was Wang Yangzi’s child’s birthday next week. As a birthday gift they would give them the drug Chen Liguo made.
Chen Liguo’s mood was as calm as a lake. He said to the system, “I have seen all forms in the world.”
The system asked, “All forms in the world?”
Chen Liguo said, “Of people’s butts.”
System: “……”
Chen Liguo: “And chests.”
System: “……”
Chen Liguo: “And big chickens……”
The system said, “Okay, next topic.”
Chen Liguo said, “I’m very tired.” He really was, looking at bodies every day was like eating meat every day. It even made him lose his mood for making love.
The system asked, “So?”
Chen Liguo said, “So when will I die?”
System: “….. Soon.”
Chen Liguo said, “I want to give Bai Yanlou a big surprise after I’m dead.”
The system knew that this ‘big surprise’ of Chen Liguo’s wasn’t anything good, so it felt a bit of sympathy for Bai Yanlou deep in its heart.
Bai Yanlou still didn’t know that he was going to suffer the most painful blow of his life.
He felt an uncontrollable irritation over Chen Liguo’s desire to leave him.
He had long since known that there was no love between the two of them but he had still hoped that that man would soften up a little……
But he hadn’t.
When it came to leaving his eyes would be full of stars, as if he was seeing the hope of his life.
Bai Yanlou put out his cigarette and thought somewhat coldly, in any case he wasn’t a generous person, so if He Chenyou still didn’t change his mind in the end then he would help him change it.
The day of Wang Yangzi’s child’s first birthday came.
The base was bustling and everyone celebrated for the child.
As the mother, Wang Yangzi held the child and stood in front of a big cake. In front of the cake was a small red box which had the purple drug inside it.
Chen Liguo did not attend. He did not want to see the eye-burning bodies, so he chose to watch soap operas with the system at home.
The system said, “It’s going to end oh.”
Chen Liguo said, “En, I know.”
The system asked, “You don’t have anything you want to say to Bai Yanlou?”
Chen Liguo pulled out a book from his drawer and said, “This is what I want to say to Bai Yanlou.”
System: “……” It finally understood Chen Liguo’s sinister intentions.
The Author Has Something To Say:
This world is coming to an end. Hahahaha take a guess at what Chen Liguo wants to give Bai Yanlou. Begging a wave a nutrient solution lueluelue. Haven’t begged in a long time, want to empty your bodies (x
Thank you darlings for the mines, grenades, and rockets.
StormFrost: One more chapter left of this arc before we’re onto the last one folks xD
thanks for the update
FYI: when Chen Liguo says “Great aunt visited his nose”, he’s referring to a menstrual period lol. “Great aunt” is slang for a period.
Thanks for the translations!

Thanks for translating
Ohh can’t wait to read what is next. I love CL and the system inner dialogue
Thank you for the chapter!!
I cant wait for the next arc!! I wanna see the ml really really meet the mc
Wow.. i guess there will be a big drama in the next chapter… Aaaah… I can’t wait 😆
Thank you for this chapter
Thank you for the chapter
I feel my eyes burn just thinking about having x ray vision _:(´ཀ`」 ∠):
gosh this story will end soon. I will miss our silly MC and father system haha.
I admire how MC always believes in the ‘real’ world and never begs to embrace ML’s golden thighs. I hope in the real world, Chen Liguo will unite with the man he loves.
I know it’s going to be ridiculous but I’m super curious just what CL is leaving behind. An incomplete formula? Love letter that doesn’t quite finish? Hate letter? Love letter to the daughter of fate? Or something super silly?
Thanks for the great translation ♥️
The “I feel like great aunt has visited my nose” ended me lmaoooo. 😂 Thanks for the chapter! I can’t wait for the last arc (but not for this novel to end, of course 😞).
Cmon spoil it
Ahh dying to found out what the gift is!
Thanks for the chapter! 💕
I bet on a notebook with the formula, a farewell note for the female protagonist and a note that says mangosteens are better than bai yanlou
Haha i remember what the notebook contains. Bai Yanlou will be very angry.
Thanks for the chapter
CLIFF 😫
Thank you for the chapter!😊
I’m going to take a wild guess and say that the notebook contains 1) Formula of the drugs 2) Diary 3) Confession (aka I love you but I have this incurable terminal disease) 4) Ability Confession (aka I don’t have clairvoyance, my actual ability is X-ray vision and I can see through everyone’s clothes)
I wonder why no one has noticed that the MC is sick yet. I suppose he wouldn’t be anemic if he had something like polycythemia vera. With him coming close to death, I’d expect him to have other symptoms other people can see. Of course, Bai Yanlou doesn’t care about others and doesn’t show any empathy, so maybe he just didn’t notice.
I wonder how far the completion rate is.
I really hope it’s a notebook of bad jokes. That’s it.
Omg. I binged read this beautifully long novel and made me see green and have twitchy, itchy, irritated eyes. Finally I caught up, what a lovely novel. Thanks for translating.
great aunt visit his nosehisnose😅😅😅😅 For those of u who don’t know, great aunt is the Chinese slang for “Kool aid spill” period
The system knew that this ‘big surprise’ of Chen Liguo’s wasn’t anything good, so it felt a bit of sympathy for Bai Yanlou deep in its heart.
Everytime this happens, i keep on thinking this is CLG’s sort of punishment to ‘ML’ for hurting him – either in real world (ML unintentionally) or the other worlds.
LMAO THE NOSEBLEEDINGS AND RATING PPL’S BODY
I wonder what will CL give to ML
Got me wondering tho what if in some world, daughter of fate is into writing diaries then she wont forget mc and ml
