When Ye Ming woke up the next day, Shen Ye was already gone.

【Ye Ming: Ah, another glorious morning is upon us.】

Chrysanthemum Garden.

【888: Good morning.】

【Ye Ming: …Ge, I’m not too used to you acting like this.】 aePWOH

【888: Bad morning.】

【Ye Ming: …】How terrible. He felt like his system had probably been invaded by a virus! This absolutely wasn’t his system!

Ye Ming didn’t speak again for the rest of the morning. 888 instantly felt at peace. He was extremely pleased with the new method he’d discovered to get back at his host and went off to play video games with the other systems.

After being stimulated by 888, Ye Ming’s expression had become a little unnatural. Finally, he got out of bed to wash up.

As soon as he went outside, he saw Shen Ye sitting in the living room. When he saw Ye Ming come out, his lips curled up and he tugged Ye Ming into his arms, setting him down on his lap. There was no trace of his dark mood from yesterday as he teased him very naturally, “You can still get up?”

Ye Ming thought back to everything last night, an ugly expression on his face. He looked down, completely avoiding Shen Ye’s gaze.

Shen Ye laughed and looked down at Ye Ming’s face with a meaningful look in his eyes. He directly picked him up and personally fed him his meal.

Ye Ming could no longer remain silent. His lips turned pale with anger as he spat out, “What exactly are you trying to do?” hYxLr2

Shen Ye smiled faintly, “Feed you ah.”

Ye Ming gritted his teeth. When Shen Ye had still been together with him in the past, he hadn’t been this frivolous. Even if he pretended to kick up a fuss, he’d still carefully worry over him. But, now… his eyes darkened for a moment, and a self-deprecating smile appeared on his lips.

What was he even thinking? Was he still expecting Shen Ye to treat him just like before? If he found out his real identity, he’d probably want nothing more than to kill him.

Shen Ye answered only that, completely ignoring Ye Ming’s resistance otherwise. He pinched his chin and continued to feed him. iJyIjz

Ye Ming reached out to push Shen Ye away, but couldn’t make him budge at all. In the end, he could only give up indignantly and let Shen Ye carry on.

After this meal, Ye Ming’s tears were about to fall out. However, Shen Ye casually put him down just like some kind of pet and ordered, “You can rest at home ba. You don’t have to go to work today.”

Ye Ming didn’t even bother answering Shen Ye.

Shen Ye gave him a mocking look. He didn’t mind and turned around to leave. 2Vd3ot

Seeing that Shen Ye had left, Ye Ming sat in the living room for a while, a contemplative look in his eyes. He was about ready to make a trip outside. He’d been with Shen Ye this entire period of time. He had no free time to himself at all, so it’d been very difficult for him to get anything done or do any investigating. This break today was actually a rare opportunity for him to avoid Shen Ye and do his own thing.

Ye Ming hit the door with his fist, a look of fury and powerlessness in his eyes.

Shen Ye sat in his car, looking at his home surveillance monitor. His lips curled up, and he revealed a cold smile on his face.

Now, you can’t escape. Let’s see what you’ll do next, my big brother.

……………… FL0w k

Ye Ming paced around the house. Because it was a high-rise building, there was no other exit besides the main entrance.

There was a sullen look on his face. But, on the inside, he was thinking about how it was right about time for him to begin the next step.

【Ye Ming: Ge, Ge… Ge? Are you there, Ge?】

【888: Just ask.】 UhlOcQ

【Ye Ming: Why so official, business aside, can’t we just chat ma, QAQ】

【888 was silent for a while: The fee to have me accompany you for a chat is very expensive. 1000 experience points per hour. Are you certain you need it?】

【Ye Ming: No way! You used to chat with me without taking a fee!】

【888: That was before. Later on, after I gave it some thought, I realized that this could also be something good to put a price tag on, so we mustn’t let it go to waste. And… thank you for reminding me. I’ll calculate the amount of time I spent chatting with you previously. I won’t charge you any interest, just give me the direct cost. You can consider it a special discount for friends.】 FEzAW0

【Ye Ming: …】

【Ye Ming: No, I don’t especially need the chatting service. I just wanted to ask, who exactly killed me in the first place? QAQ】 At the time, he’d been so preoccupied with his missed dinner that he hadn’t even paid any attention to the other person before he’d died.

【888: The information has been sent to you. Take your time, I have business to attend to.】

【Ye Ming: …】 ViC13

【888: Remember, get straight to the point next time.】

【Ye Ming: …】

After being given the cold shoulder, Ye Ming could only take a look at the information he’d been given to pass some time. There were only a few pages that he finished shortly, while he also didn’t have 888 around to chat with. Because he was under surveillance, he couldn’t even act too differently, so Ye Ming almost felt suffocated to death. He was about to go crazy after less than a day! Sleep was the only thing that could grant him escape from his dilemma!

When Shen Ye came back in the evening, Ye Ming had an ugly expression on his face.

Shen Ye completely ignored the cold fury in Ye Ming’s eyes as he casually motioned to him and said, “Come here.”

Grief and powerlessness flooded Ye Ming’s heart. Shen Ye was chiseling away at him, encroaching on his space and taking control of his life step by step. If things continued like this, how could he even worry about his revenge? He’d probably lose his own freedom first.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of Zheng Sen, a conflicted, hesitant look appearing in his eyes. QdK0f1

Seeing that Ye Ming hadn’t moved, Shen Ye gave him a meaningful look as his tone slightly chilled, “I’m telling you to come over.”

Ye Ming took a step back and stubbornly gave him an indifferent look instead.

Shen Ye looked at Ye Ming’s expression, fierce hatred suddenly flaring up within him! There was a cold smile on his lips. Oh… you can’t even handle something like this. And here I thought you’d be able to endure for a while longer. How disappointing ah…

“It seems that you haven’t learned your lesson yet…” Shen Ye’s low voice came out lazily, a forbidding look in the depths of his dark eyes. HnC95d

Ye Ming became alert, instinctively sensing the danger, and turned to return to his room! But, before he could close the door, Shen Ye had already squeezed right in, pushing the door right open with a mighty shove!

………………

From that day forward, Ye Ming hadn’t been out of the house. Shen Ye either watched him at home or he locked the door to the house and left Ye Ming completely trapped inside.

More than a week passed by in the blink of an eye. xgKk5m

Shen Ye seemed to find this kind of game very interesting. He just enjoyed watching Ye Ming put up a fruitless struggle as he violated him, utterly disregarding his unwillingness. Later on, he’d even bring back some toys to use on him, his actions dripping with contempt as he humiliated him, not stopping until Ye Ming cried and begged him for mercy each time.

One day, Ye Ming was lying on the bed alone, his hands still tied behind his back where they’d been all night.

No… things couldn’t go on like this. Maybe he’d die here before he could even take his revenge…

He’d just been reborn. He hadn’t accomplished anything yet. Were things going to end like this? szjhNb

No… absolutely not!

What were dignity and virtue worth anyway? He was unwilling to let things go on like this…

Ye Ming’s vision was a bit blurry. Suddenly, he faintly heard the sound of the door opening. He struggled to turn his head and saw a tall figure walking in. Finally, a shadow fell on him.

Shen Ye gently picked Ye Ming up and laughed deeply, “Hungry?” dmYKG

Ye Ming gazed at him a little absently, a look of deep sorrow buried in his eyes. After a long time, he let out a hoarse, weary voice steeped in humiliation, “I, I’ll be obedient in the future…”

Shen Ye appeared to be surprised by Ye Ming’s sudden change of attitude. He raised an eyebrow, “Oh? You’re not planning to get away from me anymore?”

Ye Ming shut his eyes in pain and said, “No, I won’t… please let me out…”

Shen Ye finally laughed, but there was no trace of humor in his eyes, “Okay.” 2S0fUu

I knew you’d beg me. Your integrity and your determination are nothing more than an act…

During this period of time, he hadn’t given up on investigating the matters from the past, but he couldn’t uncover any clues. It was practically impossible to discover the whereabouts of a person who’d been missing for ten years within a short period of time. Although there was no way for him to immediately find out what had happened ten years ago, he’d absolutely figure out what was going on right now.

For example, what exactly it is you want to do.

Ye Ming went back to work again. This time, Shen Ye didn’t bother putting up a show with Ye Ming and directly transferred him over to be his assistant. Ye Ming didn’t raise any objections, appearing completely submissive and obedient. He turned a blind eye to the strange looks he got from everyone else inside the company, remaining utterly indifferent.

After getting his cellphone back, Ye Ming hesitated for several days before he finally hid in the bathroom and dialed Zheng Sen’s number.

The other person picked up fairly quickly. “Hello?”

Ye Ming squeezed his cell phone tightly and said, “This is Tao Xu. There’s something I want to tell you.” 5R4E H

It seemed to take Zheng Sen a while before he could remember who Tao Xu was. His tone softened, carrying with it a hint of concern, “Oh, are you doing okay? Has Shen Ye made things difficult you?”

Ye Ming didn’t answer this question, but said directly, “I want to ask you for a favor.”

Zheng Sen paused and said, “Do you want to leave Shen Ye? I can help you. Where are you right now?”

Ye Ming was silent for a long time. He seemed to have made up his mind about something as he said slowly, “It’s not that.” X6L0Pw

Zheng Sen’s voice was finally colored with surprise as he asked, “What is it then?”

Ye Ming said, “It’s about Han Xu.”

As soon as these words came out, the person on the other side immediately quieted down. Even if the other person wasn’t around right now, he could still sense the sudden shift in atmosphere, the heaviness transmitting through the phone from far away.

After a full ten seconds, a sound came from the other side again. FzpQTK

Zheng Sen’s voice was no longer calm as he lowered his voice and cautiously asked him solemnly, “How do you know him and what do you know about him?”

It stood to reason that based on Tao Xu’s status, it was impossible for him to have news about Han Xu. After all, even they couldn’t find Han Xu… anything unusual that cropped up couldn’t be taken lightly.

At this moment, Zheng Sen even thought of the possibility that Shen Ye and Ye Ming had come up with this plot together to conspire against him.

Ye Ming’s gaze was heavy. He took a deep breath and said, “Let’s meet and talk.” 2gER4p

【888: What’re you doing? You know that Shen Ye will get angry.】

【Ye Ming: (⊙v⊙) En, I know ah. What’s about it?】

【888: …】 It was probably because he’d lost his mind there for a moment that he couldn’t help but say something to this spicy chicken!

The translator has something to say: Hello, dear readers. My apologies for the wait. I know there was a long gap between updates, and many of you were probably wondering what was going on. Updates have been pretty sporadic for a while now as you guys have noticed, so I’ve made the decision to let others take over since I’m unfortunately unable to maintain my usual release rate because of personal stuff I must attend to. I really wanted to see this translation journey to the end with you guys, but I really enjoyed it while it lasted. I’ll be back again someday in the future when time allows, and hopefully, I might see some of you there. For now, I leave this novel to my co-translator, ShiriChan, who’ll be working hard on updating for you guys! All of you guys’s patience this entire time has been greatly appreciated, so please kindly grant your new official translator some extra time for the re-adjustment. I wish you guys all the best! <3 HC7Gp6
