Lying in bed, Chen You couldn’t sleep. He was still in shock.
A person like this who, regardless of how much he ate, could continue to eat without vomiting, was really too much.
Lei Ming couldn’t sleep either. The slight breathing sound around him was magnified infinitely, and his brows had yet to unfurrow.
The bed was very big, so there was a space between the two. They didn’t squeeze next to each other. With four hanging pendants lined up in a row, it was fortunate that no one could see them. Otherwise, they would definitely be frightened.
Chen You reached for his own pendants and examined them left and right. It felt a bit stuffy and he wanted to ventilate them.
Lei Ming didn’t feel like he needed to do anything since he was already used to them.
His body was full of energy, though it seemed that he hadn’t fully absorbed everything. He had felt a similar sensation on the day of his adulthood, but it hadn’t been as intense as this time.
When the boy turned over for the third time, Lei Ming ordered, “Lie on your back and go to sleep. Don’t move.”
Chen You’s mind went blank. It’s over. From a young age, he had always preferred sleeping on his side. Even if he paid special attention to lie on his back, it would inevitably change after falling asleep.
No wonder his pendants felt crowded together and he couldn’t sleep well at night.
He glanced at a pair of pendants beside him. “Major general, when you sleep do your pendants ever get squashed?”
“Oftentimes, when I wake up, I find myself lying on my stomach, and my pendants get flattened.”
Lei Ming’s expression blackened as he listened to the boy continue in a distressed manner, “Also, I always dream and wake up to find myself holding my pendants. Does this happen to you too?”
Lei Ming’s face was really dark at this time, “No!”
No? I don’t buy it. Chen You sat up and asked, “May I take a look at your pendants?”
Lei Ming was adamant in his refusal, “No.”
Chen You rolled his eyes, though his expression was wasted on the man. This guy really is something. For a day and night you have no sense of modesty, but now you’re suddenly acting shy.
“Major general, I’m going to the bathroom.”
When he got to the toilet, Chen You started pacing back and forth. He felt extremely vexed, not knowing what was happening nor why things were happening.
He unconsciously grabbed himself, Why is it itchy again? “System, you should be online tonight, ba.”
The system answered, “Not sure.”
“My sixth sense tells me that something big is going to happen tonight. You have to be online. I need you,” Chen You said.
System, “I’ll try my best.”
Chen You was happy to have online support, “Really, I love you.”
System, “…”
Chen You lay back in bed. Lei Ming closed his eyes, breathing evenly, as if he was fast asleep. Just as Chen You was about to search for the light switch, the bedroom light turned off by itself. He really didn’t understand these high-tech products.
Don’t think any more, just go to sleep.
He wasn’t sure how much time had passed, when Chen You suddenly felt a terrible sensation from his head to his toes, as if his skin was being scraped off by a razor. A feeling of extreme fear overtook him, surpassing even his horrible pain.
He couldn’t see either. He could only use his hands to touch his arms. There was no blood, and he didn’t know what was going on.
After a while, Chen You felt like he really couldn’t go on.

Lei Ming didn’t turn on the light, but his vision was unaffected by the dark, so at this time, he could clearly see the child’s pained appearance.

Jtfc sbe qjclmxfv, “Ktfc ktja jw P rmgjqlcu boo?”
The system said, “Mud.”
You’re messing with me. I’ve taken a bath and scrubbed very carefully. Chen You clenched his teeth as he shivered, “I’m almost dead-“
The system suggested, “I can play you a lullaby?”
Chen You shook his head, It won’t help. Right now, nothing could save him.
He shifted his body and approached the man. The bed was too big. After moving a bit, he already lost half a life.
“Major general!” Chen You cried.
There was no response.
He turned over and directly rolled onto the man’s chest. This should wake him up.
However, there was still no response.
Chen You went to pull at his pendants. Still nothing? Are you awake or not? If you don’t wake up, I’ll bite!
Once the child started to make a scene, it was a little scary. A vein pulsed in Lei Ming’s forehead as he sternly said, “If you’re not sleeping, then what are you doing?”
Chen You cursed at him in his heart, Fuck you, older brother. Finally, you’ve stopped pretending to be asleep, “Major General, can you turn on the light?”
“The light is broken,” said Lei Ming.
Chen You, “…” Now even you’re messing with me!
He rolled down, his stomach facing the ceiling, and dazedly endured the inexplicable pain in the darkness, feeling like he was molting.
It’s too strange.
“Quickly use the nunchucks, he-he-ha-hee, quickly use wuwu...“
As Chen You sang and cried, his consciousness gradually disappeared.
The furnishings were illuminated as the room changed from dark to light. Lei Ming’s head turned to the side and saw the child curled up with his hands and feet, his face full of tears.
He reached out and touched the child’s neck. His pupils shrank as he felt a layer of something.
It looked like his predictions were correct.
Lei Ming took the boy to the bathroom and rinsed many times before the impurities were finally washed off of his body.
The next day, Chen You woke up early and asked the system in his mind, “Quickly tell me, have I become a bit more beautiful?”
The system, “No.”
That just means that he has. Now, Chen You had figured out the characteristics of his system. He laughed and woke up Lei Ming.
Chen You waved and said, “Good morning, major general.”
Lei Ming opened the quilt and got out of bed from the opposite side. His back view was very sexy, stimulating the desire for others to rush over and tightly hug him.
Chen You scratched his face and deeply felt that the hardware of this target was really too heaven-defying, unlike that of ordinary mortals.
When Lei Ming was putting on pants, Chen You stared at him to see how he arranged them.
But Lei Ming turned his back.
Chen You，“……” There’s no point, then. We’re all compatriots. What’s wrong with sharing?
He circled around to take a look.
Lei Ming was already bucking his belt. “What are you looking at?”
Chen You said, “You wore your pants very fast. When I run, my pendants always bump into one of my legs.”
Lei Ming raised his eyebrows. His pants were made to order. The child’s pants were not, so they would be uncomfortable.
Two days later, a servant placed a bunch of new pants in the closet of Chen You’s room. He was so happy when he tried them on. No matter how he moved, he didn’t have to worry about his pendants slipping out.
When Wu Wei came to visit Lei Ming and saw the child in the garden, he asked the servant, “What is the child doing?”
The servant answered, “Fooling around.”
Wu Wei smiled, “Children ma, it’s natural to be playful at that age.”
The servant retreated.
When Chen You entered the hall, he was certain at a glance that the strange man on the sofa was hostile towards him.
Wu Wei smiled gently, “You are Ah Chou.”
Chen You politely made an affirmative noise. Soon, I will be called Ah Mei.
Lei Ming saw that the boy wanted to eat some fruit, “Wash your hands.”
Chen You retracted his hand and went to the kitchen for the sake of his fruit.
The expression that flashed in Wu Wei’s eyes was almost surprised, “That child is very afraid of you.”
Lei Ming was silent. He’s afraid of me? I don’t see it.
After washing his hands, Chen You took a handful of fruit and ate it. The fruit was white and extremely appetizing. He didn’t overhear the conversation between the two men.
However, on the matter of Wu Wei being secretly in love with Lei Ming, he didn’t intend to tell Lei Ming about it.
Interfering too much would just be asking for trouble.
Wu Wei suddenly said, “Little friend, go and bring us some water.”
Chen You took another look at him. There are servants inside and outside of the hall. You don’t look for anyone else and, instead, you look for me. Seriously, your tactics and brain are too poor. It really doesn’t match up to your face.
“Okay.”
Chen You went to refill their waters. “Mr. Wu, feel free to call me if there’s anything else.”
Wu Wei turned to Lei Ming and said, “The kid is so well-behaved. No wonder you like it.”
Wu Wei’s words seemed like they were trying to feel him out.
But Lei Ming didn’t take the bait.
Wu Wei inadvertently saw the pinch mark on the child’s arm, and his eyelids jumped. “Have you touched him?”
This time, Lei Ming answered, “Un.”
Wu Wei directly knocked over a cup, “I’m sorry.”
Not far away, Chen You shook his head. Xiao Ming, you can’t do this. You haven’t been in love. Even when people’s feelings towards you are this obvious, you still can’t pick up on it.
Wu Wei didn’t sit much longer before he left. On the way out, he didn’t look very well.
Lei Ming pointed to the bag on the table. “This is for you.”
Chen You looked and saw that it was a box of desserts. He felt a little bad about accepting it and thought it over for a bit. Next time he saw Wu Wei, he would send him something good.
On the sofa, Lei Ming logged onto the central network. He casually took a look at the child’s in-game nickname. [My family has two big birds] was changed to [Four big birds].
After learning the word “pendant,” he now knew another word.
Chen You had only eaten one piece of dessert when he heard the man say, “Follow me upstairs.”
He passed by the servants with looks of disbelief on their faces as he followed him up.
I didn’t do anything, but I was still criticized.
Chen You thought that Lei Ye couldn’t do things without trying to attract his cousin’s attention.
If Chen You didn’t know some inside information about the Lei family, he would’ve thought that Lei Ye’s love was truly deep.
While Lei Ming was away, Lei Ye came for Chen You again.
On the grass, Chen You was caught by Lei Ye and thrown up high. When he was thrown into the sky, he let loose a torrent of curses.
As he was falling down, Chen You twisted his neck and found that Lei Ye was not in the same place but was standing on the other side with several friends, crossing his arms and joking.
Chen You ‘s eyes glared and he heavily slammed to the ground. Lei Ye, fuck you!
The system came out and said, “You can complain. Xiao Ming will get justice for you.”
Chen You’s internal organs all hurt. What does it matter? Now that he was lying here, soon the adjutant would come find him.
“I don’t need to say anything. I’ll save a mouthful of blood and spit it out for Xiao Ming at the right time. I’ll still survive if I’m only half dead.”
Some people asked, “Ye-shao, the little monster won’t die, ba?”
Looking at the child with tightly closed eyes, Lei Ye was a little scared, but he maintained his carefree expression and stated, “If he dies, he dies. It has nothing to do with us.”
He humphed, “Brothers, where are we playing today?”
Several people laughed, “Drink at Shengliang.”
“It’s not really dead, is it?”
Lei Ye left and returned alone. In the end, he was still afraid of playing around with human lives. Suddenly, he exclaimed, “Strange, this little thing seems to have become less ugly.”
Chen You was pretending to be dead. Upon hearing this sentence, he couldn’t help thinking that he hadn’t eaten enough. He needed to eat even more.
Luoshenhua: Ugh, so much innuendo in these past few chapters. Gotta appreciate the author’s struggle to get around censorship though, educating both me and Lei Ming on the proper usage of “pendants” and “big birds” lol.
His reaction to pendants and desire to play reminded me that part in Robin Williams’ stand-up (weapons of self-destruction) in later half there’s a part about committee that created the human outer look, recommended to people who never saw it 😂 But boy the backstory of this… how did you become prettier? i fu*ked and i changed 🤣 I can’t, I’m dead, this novel is so funny
Thanks for the chapter ♥
Gracias
Alright. Time to do a reversal and eat the big birds. NO MORE GETTING EATEN BY THE BIRDS! NO MORE!
I often see jokes about having nice skin or looking prettier after getting deflowered… Looks like that’ll be the case in this arc! 🐦🐦🐦🐦
Hahaha why is major general so shy to show his pendants??
Thanks for the chapter 💕
Thanks for the great translation.
thank u sm for translation!
YAHSSSSS EAT MORE… road to beautification 😆
sometimes I feel pity for CY…just a young boy suddenly stuck in this cruel world and even his system is so cold , though he can be funny sometimes. I admire CY because even though from first world he has gone through a lot, he still makes the situations seem funny.
Same , he trys to convince this all is just a game and it’s not his own body when stuff happens . I hope the ml can change and make the mc fall for him otherwise it’s just a fake game of affection which mc has sacrificed alot for ..
Now you say it. I am agree, me too, i feel bad for him even from first arc. If i was in his situation i might be gone crazy or choose to die😧
yeah…me too!
Well, with one it doesn’t work… Maybe two really makes a difference 🤔
