Strategy to Capture That Scum GongCh14 - Come~ Let’s Hurt Each Other~

Translated by Eve

Edited by Shirubame CQqZJz


Zhou Yian’s gaze was bloodthirsty and malicious; his tone was cold as a viper. He pinched Xie He’s chin with an excessive amount of force and lowered his own head to give him a strange, cold smile, “Really, what a pity. Could it be that Zhou Yizhe won’t want you anymore if you don’t stay here today?”

Xie He’s chin that was being pinched hurt badly but his face was expressionless, “Yes.”

“In consideration to our previous feelings, it’s not that I can’t give you a chance,” The corner of Zhou Yian’s lips raised. He fixed his eyes on Xie He’s pale face and smiled callously, “Let me see how you normally serve my brother. You must be rather skilled, for him to let such a slut stay by his side.”

He suddenly let go and retreated backwards, sitting on a chair. He crossed his legs and looked at Xie He with a slight smile, “If you can satisfy me, then I’ll let you stay with me tonight.” ExN3rJ

“OK,” Xie He revealed a shallow smile.

He placed his hand on his collar and slowly undid his buttons. His clothes fell onto the ground and he walked step by step until he was right in front of Zhou Yian. He looked through lowered eyelashes, “Are you satisfied with me?”

Zhou Yian looked at the youth before him. From start to finish the youth’s expression was serene, as if he was used to this…used to shamelessly undressing himself in front of other men. There was no shyness or embarrassment—it was so natural…This was not what he remembered.

Was the youth originally this kind of person? Or was it Zhou Yizhe who made him this way?

Zhou Yian couldn’t tell. He only felt rage burning through his veins.

It made him want to lose all rationality.

A corner of his lip pulled up and he smiled in contempt, “Only this level and you managed to seduce my brother? You trying to trick me?”

A nearly indiscernible tremble ran through Xie He’s body. FezIwJ

It was as if something ice cold had flowed through his veins.

Seeming to earnestly ponder over this, a moment later, Xie He continued to advance. He slowly extended his hands to wrap his arms around Zhou Yian’s neck and lowered his head to kiss him.

If it was Zhou Yizhe, he would like this. What a joke, what was he even doing right now….

The person in front of him seemed to become fuzzy and he couldn’t tell who it was. 87BKgE

Xie He lightly kissed the man beneath him. The man was motionless, only watching him attentively with a cold and detached gaze, like he was something that made others sick to the stomach and he didn’t want to reciprocate the kiss in the least.

“Truly disgusting,” Zhou Yian looked at him, enunciating each word clearly.

Xie He froze.

“Get off me! I said that you’re really disgusting, didn’t you hear me!” Zhou Yian suddenly roared. V87vxn

Xie He’s mask finally shattered and he revealed a grieved and pained expression.

This expression stung Zhou Yian’s eyes. He threw Xie He onto the ground and slapped him harshly! “Don’t look at me like that, you don’t deserve to!”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

You don’t deserve to.

The scorching pain on his face couldn’t even measure against the pain that these four words caused. Xie He suddenly laughed loudly. His body bent like a bow with how hard he was laughing—laughing like a madman. ZDKY41

If he stayed here for another second, Zhou Yian was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to control himself and would do something he would regret. DmWBv6

Zhou Yian left in big strides. The cold air from outside drilled into his lungs, seeming to alleviate the blazing pain inside of him. He walked outside, his mind vacant, until he reached a secluded area. He smashed his fists over and over into a tree and very quickly, his fists were drenched in blood.

【444:Host dada, Zhou Yian has left. What are you still laying there for?】

【Xie He:No need to hurry. He’ll come back so there’s no need for me to get up only to have to pose again. 】

【444:But there’s no heating here. You’ll catch a cold. QAQ】 oX0SYF

【Xie He:That’s the point. 】

【444:Host dada, you’re really dedicated to your work….】

【Xie He:This is the most basic professional quality of an actor 🙂 】

【444:Say, that Zhou Yian just now was really scary! I thought he was really going to hit you just now! 】 G3yq5e

【Xie He:Didn’t he hit me? Can systems also have selective eyesight? 】

【444:Eh…it was a slap—no—what I meant was that I thought he would beat you up….】Becuase Host dada really needs a spanking, but he doesn’t dare say this._(:зゝ∠)_

【Xie He:If he beats me up, then he won’t be second male lead, he’d be cannon fodder. 】

【444:When did he become the second male lead???】 z1BCbm

【Xie He:I conferred that title to him 🙂 】

【Xie He:Recently, I’ve been reading too many ‘pure love’ novels and felt that he really had the characteristics of a second male lead. He’s so pitiful and lamentable, ah.】

【444:……】

  ………………………… s7rnoU

Zhou Yizhe had not left the premises. He stood on a veranda a bit away, watching the scene before him. He knew that Zhao Qing was there in Zhou Yian’s tent not far from here and had to use all of his restraint to prevent himself from going over there and disturbing them. He should give Zhao Qing some time—a chance…even if that chance would cause him to forfeit his own love.

With regards to him, this wasn’t just one night. It was a farewell.

He wished for Zhao Qing and Zhou Yian to clear their misunderstandings so that Zhao Qing would no longer suffer. At the same time, he had the despicable hope that they would not get back together, so he could naturally take the youth for himself.

He wasn’t certain that he’d be able to let go of him in the worst case scenario. mDezUb

“Hey, did you guys see that? Zhou Yian seemed to have gone into the forest and gone crazy.”

“Yeah. Some people saw him go just now, looking really unstable.”

“Isn’t he spending the night with Zhou Yizhe’s…that tonight?”

“At the start, yeah. But after, who knows why he charged out all on his own…he doesn’t seem too happy. His eyes were really scary.” rjt1cS

The colour of Zhou Yizhe’s face suddenly changed. He abruptly ran over and scared the whispering group of people.

“Where did you guys say Zhou Yian went?” Zhou Yizhe swept a cold, sharp gaze over them.

“O-over there…” One of them immediately pointed in one direction.

Zhou Yizhe turned around and made large strides in the indicated direction. Afterwards, he felt that he was moving too slowly and directly ran, disregarding his image. When he arrived, he saw Zhou Yian firmly standing by a tree. The blood from his knuckles stained the tree’s bark and he emitted a brutal and chilly air from his entire body. Yvgm45

He had a bad premonition. Zhou Yizhe didn’t care about anything else and grabbed Zhou Yian’s collar, shouting, “Where’s Zhao Qing?”

Zhou Yian slowly turned to look at him. When he saw who it was, he suddenly sneered, “Didn’t you give him to me? The day’s not even over. It couldn’t be that you want to go back on your word?”

“Where is he!” Zhou Yizhe’s eyes that had always been as tranquil as a deep pond exposed a harsh expression.

“Where else would he be? Obviously he’s at my place…” Zhou Yian smiled in disdain, “He’s so well-behaved…he said he just had to be with me. No matter what I said, he wouldn’t leave. Too bad I only feel nauseated when I look at him. So, I left by myself….” PHSw12

Zhou Yizhe was so angry that his hand trembled slightly. He threw Zhou Yian to the ground and sprinted at lightning speed towards the tent.

As soon as he tore open the tent, he saw the youth laying bare-naked on the ground. If his chest hadn’t been moving up and down slightly, he’d look like he was dead. This scene made Zhou Yizhe’s heart clench. He very quickly took off his jacket to cover the youth’s body, bringing him into his arms. It was only then that he saw the red slap mark on his face. Zhou Yizhe’s eyes exposed a pained and tender expression. He tightly hugged the youth to his chest, “Don’t be afraid. It’s fine. I’m here now….”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Xie He slowly raised his eyes. His trembling eyelashes were stained with tears…he looked broken….

Zhou Yizhe sucked in a slow breath. He felt that if the youth in his arms was upset even a little bit more, he would break and go insane. And the one who had pushed him to the brink was him. pNQ0 y

He would never forgive himself.

Zhou Yian arrived a little later. When he did, he saw Zhou Yizhe hugging Xie He. His motionless, silent back appeared somber and desolate, making his own heart twitch uneasily.

He smiled mockingly, as if  he could brush away the uneasiness in his heart in this manner, “If you’re this reluctant then you shouldn’t have offered him up. Did you really think that I’d want your things? Yeah, right.”

“Enough!” Zhou Yizhe shouted in his deep voice. He saw Xie He trembling. A deathly grey hue seemed to cover his originally bloodless face. P5wGpa

He carefully carried Xie He to the bed and placed him down. He then turned around and punched Zhou Yian in the face!

Zhou Yian was in a jittery, restless state, so he didn’t anticipate that Zhou Yizhe would suddenly act up. He took the punch to his face and felt the scorching pain, the taste of blood welling in his mouth. This punch seemed to smash all of his rationality, that had already been barely holding on, to pieces! His eyes reddened and he threw a punch back!

The two brothers fought, neither holding back. A few minutes later, they parted, both huffing and puffing. Zhou Yian cut a sorry figure: his hair fallen to his forehead, disheveled. Zhou Yizhe was no better—the always meticulously arranged clothes were in a terrible mess.

Zhou Yizhe gently wiped the blood from his lips, looking at Zhou Yian with a complicated expression of dense hate. s3mZbC

But he was always a rational person, so…it was time for him to put an end to his indulgence.

It was his fault. It was his fault from the beginning.

Zhou Yizhe shut his eyes for a moment before opening them again, pained. His voice was hoarse and brought a slight chill as he spoke, “You shouldn’t treat him like this.”

Zhou Yian’s eyes also could not conceal his hatred and he sneered, “Why can’t I?” rdOYCx

“Because…” Zhou Yizhe clenched his fist so hard that his knuckles cracked. He had never thought that there’d be a day where he would personally push his beloved away to someone else over and over again. If someone had told him this before, he would definitely have ridiculed that person with disdain. But now, he didn’t even have the strength to ridicule himself. He slowly opened his mouth, “Because he….”

“Zhou Yizhe,” Xie He opened his eyes.

Zhou Yizhe’s remaining words were cut off. He turned his head to look at Xie He.

Xie He calmly gazed at him and slowly said, “Since he doesn’t want me, will you take me home?” FpYJ4k

“I…” Zhou Yizhe seemed to still want to say something. However, in the next second, he saw an unprecedented determination in Xie He’s eyes. That determination made him unable to speak the rest of his sentence.

This pain was like a net that crushed Zhou Yizhe’s organs.

It felt like a century had passed in these few silent seconds. In the end, Zhou Yizhe stopped paying any attention to Zhou Yian. He turned to carry Xie He in his arms and softly said, “I’ll take you away.”

Zhou Yian looked on, stupefied, as Zhou Yizhe carried Xie He off. When he finally reacted, he was the only one left. V4MpJP

What did Zhou Yizhe want to say just now?

No…perhaps he didn’t want to say anything….

However, what he did know, was at that moment, he had thoroughly lost the person he loved.

Xie He quietly laid in Zhou Yizhe’s embrace, letting him carry him away. 1T8HpS

What he needed was love, not pity.

He especially did not need Zhou Yian’s pity.

It was just that it was cold, really too cold. It was like the very last vestige of warmth in the depths of his heart had been taken away; as if the little fire in his heart had been extinguished. He was so cold his teeth chattered; his body stiffened, his blood froze. It was probably his survival instinct that made him automatically lean against Zhou Yizhe’s chest, absorbing some of the warmth from the other’s skin. It couldn’t warm his heart but…he still didn’t want to let go.

He obviously knew that he’d die, but before he did, all he wanted was to lessen the pain. cPhMbR

Zhou Yizhe suddenly paused his movements. He felt that the youth in his arms had discretely moved closer to him. This little bit, if it wasn’t someone as perceptive as him, they wouldn’t have noticed….

“Are you cold? I’ll take you back,” Zhou Yizhe’s voice was hoarse.

Zhou Yizhe looked at him fixedly, as if he was looking at this man clearly for the first time. His lips moved, spitting out quiet, neary inaudible words, “Don’t leave me.”

Because it was really too cold…much too cold. vFh5qd

Zhou Yizhe’s grip on Xie He suddenly tightened. His eyes that held a deep, imperceptible emotion fixed themselves on the youth’s pale face, “I won’t. I will never leave you.”

    wow what a quality dogblood
    💔

    thank you for the chp!

  2. Domestic violence is a go-to, can’t wait for Zhou Yuan yo find out the truth and suffer >:(
    Thank you for the translation!

  3. I’ve thrown away Scum Yian a million years ago already.

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK!

  4. Dog blood at it’s finest point 😩

    Thanks for the chapter! 🙂

  5. This kind of acting is really too realistic! I almost believed it.

  6. I know that he is only acting, but my tears just wont stop streaming down! What to do?? T.T

  7. The thing about Zhou Yian is….he’s suffering now….he’ll find out the truth and suffer even more later….And he lost his boyfriend and his happy life of following his passions….so I can’t help but feel bad for him. Basically, Xie He turned him into cannon fodder of the highest order and ruined his entire life. So maybe Xie He deserves at least a little smack for that??? I’m conflicted

  8. Dang, I was hoping for the author to throw a plot twist on us and we find out that Zhou Yian is the ML instead. Seems like my hopes and dreams have been shattered…
    Thanks for the chapter~

    Xie Black-hearted He

    I love this 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 just waiting when will XH will leave this world and make the second male lead regret all his actions and live a painful regretful life. If he didn’t have loosen his hold to the original in the beginning…

    And then there’s the elder bro. I guess his life will be more painful but less regretful after XH leaves. I love this ML abusing novel, but the pain is just accumulating. This makes me an M – which is the initial of my nickname. It’s destiny 😂😂😂😂😂

    Thanks for the chap! Waiting for next monday 😂😂😂😂

  10. After all that violence, the favourability only rise 2 points? Xie Black-Hearted He has it tough. Thanks for the translation..

  11. NOOOOOOOO It was getting goooodddd!! I wonder why XH stopped ZYZ from telling ZY the truth… That would’ve caused so much drama!! I want drama!! Hahaha

    Anyway, thank you so much for the chapter! I look forward to the next update!

  12. I’m already having stomach cramps now My heart hurts too 😭😭

  13. Rest in peace, my fragile heart QwQ

    I’m still want to cry so hard but I want to laughing too. I’m confused and in the end I laughing while crying. Sobs.

  14. I want to drag Xiao Han and Wen Muyan from “The Script Is Not Supposed To Be Like This!” into this world.

    Let’s see how the transmigated male leads and main character will face off. Hahahahahaha! After all, Xie He, Xiao Han, and Wen Muyan are all good actors.

  15. argh!! what zhou yian did wrong??! godamn mission! screw u system! im soo mad! 😭 MC turn him to cannon fodder, blackened him. he did nothing wrong. why?? why?? why?? wae????!! wuwuwu…. lemme in. i want to save him. i hate u author.. T_T

  16. This story really messed up my emotion….. haha…… I feel want to laugh at the same time want to cry reading this 😭😆

  17. Everyone denouncing Yian for one slap, but didn’t his older brother do worse? Blackmail and rape, almost committing murder too by nearly screwing Xie to death at one point…..yet he is still considered the good guy….no ladies….you really got it all wrong 😂

  18. All these matters aside, let’s get to the real question. Who’s the ML?

    I’m totally betting it’s 444!

    I mean, right know he’s a cute puppy but traveling with that host through countless worlds, won’t he grow into a big bad wolf?

  19. I’m actually crying right now this is so sad even if I know he’s only acting 😭😭😭

  20. I think I became a crybaby recently… but that probably has something to do with binge watching Tanny and the rest of the QE squad… doesn’t change the fact that I’m crying right now though 😭😭😭

  21. I’ve played “Clean” in this chapter just to make my heart feel better but it didn’t. It made me cry more. It’s been long since I’ve read a novel with a sprinkle of angst. Fck it.

  22. I don’t feel sorry for MC cause he’s acting plus he was a scum gong before so he understands the scumminess of other slag gongs but i still like him. If Xie He was not the MC ya’ll would have lynched him and drown him in your spits cause dang the acting, the manipulation, the scheming, manipulating the characters of this world to reach his goals etc. If this was the original owner Zhao Qing, then this novel would be depressing as hell but original owner is not here, in most qt they are not present anymore, did not share their body with hosts and such, so for me no need to feel sorry for nonexistent Zhao Qing. Just sad that the love that could have deepen and continue between Zhao Qing and Zhou Yian does not exist the moment MC transmigrate on this capture mission. The originally indifferent Zhou Yizhe too was captured by the host’s charm and he became a scum gong. Zhou brothers are that way due to Xie He’s machinations, its no use pointing fingers, just i feel sorry for Zhou Yian the most no matter what he became, he was made this way by MC and ML. If Zhou Yizhe is really ML but with no memories like other qt MLs, i feel slightly less sorry for him. The original characters of the worlds are the only pitiful ones imo, not outsiders. Ofc if they’re all scums then its even better, for later revenge and face slapping. But for characters like Zhou Yian who were honestly good before, i will feel sorry for them, i want him to be tgt with the real Zhao Qing in an alternate world. Xie He mentally abused him so much in his lover’s body, if Zhou Yian was a shou ya’ll would be sorry for him that he was cheated on for no reason etc… Ofc this type of MC, ppl may find ruthless, but thats his mission, his job, he fits right in in this abusive story. How i wish Xie He would transmigrate to ‘Sissy’ novel in Li Chengxiu’s body, we need him to fuck Shao Qun up cause no matter the wife chasing arc in later chapters, there’s no real satisfying revenge there. We need this type of ex scum gong turned host Xie He to travel to other abusive danmei novels tbh and helped out the shous.
