Chapter 32
Something seemed to freeze in the air, and the two men stared at each other wide-eyed.
Su Jingyan slowly lowered his eyes, his expression looking very innocent, and his voice sounding very soft and tender. The trailing notes of their speech were long, just like a lazy cat wagging its tail and lazily meowing twice. “I just heard, it seemed like, a sound that appeared out of nowhere in my mind.”
Lu Yichen had been staring at Jingyan’s face, taking in every little expression and movement.
Hearing the words, Lu Yichen narrowed his eyes, his long fingers still rubbing on the waist, not painful, not itchy, but without the strength of the pressure, inexplicably with a bit of desire.
Lu Yichen hugged him tighter, and his eyes flickered a little. He didn’t know what was going on in his head, but while he looked unintentional, in fact he had intention, staring closely at Su Jingyan’s expression as he asked, “What did that voice say to you?”
Lu Yichen’s eyes had a coldness in them that he couldn’t hide. Listening carefully to his words, Su Jingyan could clearly feel that Lu Yichen’s voice was a bit hoarse and gloomy when he said this, and even his voice was trembling a bit, just like a rabid dog that was about to lose control of itself, and the only leash that could control it was almost broken.
Su Jingyan adjusted his posture in Lu Yichen’s arms, cuddling up to the boy’s neck and leaning his head against Lu Yichen’s chest so that he could lay more comfortably, without the slightest bit of doubt or fear at all he answered truthfully, “It told me you weren’t a human being.”
Lu Yichen’s throat knot rolled, the expression on his face also froze slightly, and the original smile that was still quite forced was also a bit twisted on his face, which was even more ugly than crying.
Lu Yichen moved his neck to make a crunching sound, his voice hissed, “Is there more?” After saying that, his eyes flashed a touch of bloodthirsty light and narrowed.
Su Jingyan pouted his lips and gave a soft laugh, “And he said you’d kill me.”
Su Jingyan blinked, lying in the boy’s arms, tilting his head up to look at Lu Yichen’s face, there was not a trace of suspicion towards Lu Yichen in his eyes. Only trust, even when saying this sentence, he carried a very light tone.
But what he didn’t realize was how devastating the words were to Lu Yichen, like a meteorite had fallen into a deep, calm lake, creating a huge wave that turned the sky upside down.
Lu Yichen was indeed not a human being, and had really wanted to kill Su Jingyan and took him as his own, not giving him the possibility to escape from his side.
Heh.
These words were true.
The coldness in Lu Yichen’s eyes increased, as if someone had poked into his dark world, it was as if he wanted to taint the last piece of warmth and purity in his heart into black.
The arc of Lu Yichen’s mouth was slightly twitching, as if he was suppressing some kind of emotion, and his unpredictable eyes were obscure with murderous intent.
Su Jingyan, nestled in Lu Yichen’s embrace, was unable to see the other side’s face clearly, but was able to clearly see the corners of Lu Yichen’s mouth twitching slightly.
Almost as soon as he saw it, he did not hesitate to reach out and touch Lu Yichen’s chin, and then pinched his flesh, just like scratching a dog’s chin while teasing it.
Lu Yichen sensed something from Su Jingyan. He lowered his head, and his chilling gaze met Su Jingyan’s still pure and impurity-free eyes. The waves of emotions rising in his heart grew deeper, his brows furrowed tightly, and his voice hoarse and low as he asked, “Do you think this statement is true?”
The answer of Su Jingyan’s words at this moment would determine whether Lu Yichen would go to heaven or fall into hell forever.

Lu Yichen wasn’t relieved when he heard Su Jingyan’s words, the hand on his waist slowly moved to Su Jingyan’s head, then he grabbed the person and hugged him tighter, and asked, “Which sentence?”
Su Jingyan took the opportunity to hug the other person’s neck, hooking his head with a hint of playfulness and teasing. With a mischievous smile, he brought his mouth close to Lu Yichen’s ear and whispered softly, “I also think you are not human!”
Su Jingyan’s voice was very brisk, and there was no trace of fear or trepidation in his tone.
Lu Yichen raised his eyebrows, his inner emotions were getting more turbulent, even though he still looked like he had a calm and unperturbed expression on his face, only he himself knew that at this moment, he was inexplicably relieved.
Lu Yichen rubbed Su Jingyan’s head, smelled the scent of flowers on his body, confined him, and closed his eyes, as if this gesture could give him great comfort.
“Why.” Lu Yichen asked.
Su Jingyan’s eyes curved, as if he was whispering a little secret to someone. His tone was light and serious as he said, “Because I’ve noticed that everyone in this hotel is afraid of you.”
Su Jingyan was indeed very pure and clean in his feelings. He gave 100% trust and reliance to the person he liked. However, he was not a six-year-old child, nor a foolish boy who was blinded by love. He was a man with his own independent personality, attitudes, and thoughts when it came to dealing with people and matters.
Just because he didn’t say something did not mean that he didn’t know it.
When he first entered the Xiyi Hotel, he indeed thought it was just an ordinary hotel for vacations and tourism, so he didn’t take it too seriously at all.
When he first saw that the woman hosting them at the hotel could swallow a pig’s eye without a change in her expression, he had a vague realization in his heart that things didn’t seem to be as simple as he thought, and that moment he became a little vigilant.
Including yesterday’s dead man at dinner, and the way everyone was covered in blood when they suddenly came knocking on the door yesterday …
Everything was a little mysterious and dangerous.
So, it was easy for people to associate with the idea that there might be no one inside the Xiyi Hotel, and it was all ghosts.
Lu Yichen’s way of entering the scene was already different from everyone else’s. After observing for a few days, Su Jingyan noticed that all the “people” in the hotel were very afraid of Lu Yichen. This fear wasn’t like the typical fear of the weak towards the strong. Instead, it seemed more like the fear one has when facing death.
All of this undoubtedly pointed to one answer – Lu Yichen might not be a human either.
His lover was not a person, but a so-called ghost.
Hearing Su Jingyan’s response and seeing the sincerity in the child’s expression, Lu Yichen’s mouth curved into a smile. The two of them gazed at each other silently. Lu Yichen asked with a complex tone, “Are you afraid of me then?”
The only thing inside his eyes was his trust and sincerity towards Lu Yichen.
This smile was like magic, instantly soothing Lu Yichen’s sensitive and fragile heart, and like a warm sun finally shining into the darkness of years of absence.
Finally, Lu Yichen’s eyes flashed, then changed, and then he hugged him tightly and piously planted a heavy kiss on Jingyan’s forehead.
The corners of Su Jingyan’s eyes curved up in response.
After a long time, Lu Yichen’s eyes suddenly changed, and his gaze slowly moved to the ugly guy on the stage.
The clown on stage was still performing hard, trying to entertain everyone in the audience with his poor and funny performance.
In the moment when Lu Yichen was about to move, his body suddenly stiffened, and his expression underwent a dramatic change. It was as if he had received some kind of command, and his entire presence became subtly different.
Lu Yichen in the audience didn’t say anything. He held Su Jingyan in a princess carry and stood up, cradling the person in his arms.
Confused and a little dazed, Su Jingyan looked at Lu Yichen, blinked his eyes twice, glanced at the direction of the stage, and then looked back at Lu Yichen. He asked with puzzlement, “What’s wrong? Aren’t we going to watch the performance?”
Lu Yichen’s eyes flashed, his expression remained unchanged, and the warmth and love inside his eyes did not diminish at all as he replied, “The show is about to end, haven’t you eaten enough already? Let’s go back to the room earlier.”
With trust in Lu Yichen, Su Jingyan obediently nodded in agreement.
Moreover, Su Jingyan was currently experiencing back pain, so having someone carry him could alleviate the discomfort caused by walking and the awkwardness of his legs feeling weak. It was quite comfortable and pleasant for him.
Su Jingyan leaned his head against Lu Yichen’s chest, and meekly allowed the other party to hold him without the slightest bit of resistance.
Lu Yichen’s footsteps slightly paused when he retreated from the performance room, and he leisurely turned back to look at the boy who had been sitting in the corner and kept observing the two of them from the corner of his vision.
Lu Yichen hooked the corner of his mouth, his eyes moved with a slight chill.
Tsk.
The latter’s heart was chilled, as if he had been strangled by a wild beast, there was no way to avoid it, and he would die.
The system was so stunned by Lu Yichen’s simple and straightforward gaze that it almost forgot to breathe. Even its heartbeat seemed to pause for a second. This was an experience it had never encountered before, as it had never gone through such emotions before it possessed Wang Hao’er.
Its hands and feet were getting colder and colder, and even numb, making it feel as if it had fallen into an ice cave.
It admitted that it had just utilized the so-called system privileges to send a message to Su Jingyan’s brain in the form of an electromagnetic field.
Because it never believed in the drama of the devil falling in love with an angel!
Otherwise. Why would Su Jingyan end up dead in the original storyline?
There could only be one answer, and the only one who could have killed Su Jingyan was this devil-like person!
With such thoughts, the system felt a surge of indignation.
At the moment when Lu Yichen carried Su Jingyan and left the room, the lights on the dining table suddenly flickered on and off, and then with a “pop,” they all turned off simultaneously.
In the end, the only thing left in the large space was the laser light shining on the ugly man on the stage.
And the color of the light, from pure white at the beginning, began to change into a horrible red.
And this red color, irradiated on the ugly face that already looked a little bit ugly, made it appear even more shocking and horrible.
The ugly man took off the little ugly triangular hat on his head, and then did a gentleman’s salute to all the audience on the stage, and that was the moment when his expression changed completely.
Like a snake shedded his skin, his whole face was twisted as if it had been burned by fire. Slowly, a layer of skin began to float on his face, and even slowly began to peel off on his face, the picture was incredibly disgusting.
The audience under the stage looked like they were half dumbfounded, all sitting motionless in their chairs, staring, but not struggling.
It was not that they were really scared silly, but their bodies were completely out of control of their brains at this moment.
No matter how hysterical they felt inside, how wide their eyes glared, and how much they wanted to stand up from their seats in extreme desperation, their bodies seemed as if they were bound by something. No matter how they struggled, they remained motionless..
They struggled until the veins on their foreheads were almost bursting, and cold sweat continuously trickled down from their foreheads.
But the funny thing is, at this moment, they even lost the right to make a sound, they didn’t even have the right to scream, they could only stare at their own pair of bloodshot eyes, horrified, and continue to stare at the ugly guy on the stage, but they didn’t know what the other party wanted to do next.
The ugly figure stood on the stage, snickering and giggling. Although the curvature of his lips had already reached its maximum, the laughter continued to grow louder and louder. It was as if there was some kind of magic that penetrated straight into the hearts of everyone present, causing their inner fear to intensify even more.
The clown shook his head and looked at the crumpled crowd on stage, his eyes flickering for a moment as he did so.
The next second, he threw the hat in his hand upwards, and a square but somewhat coffin-like object appeared in the middle of the stage following his action.
The ugly clown finally spoke out, his voice hoarse to the point where it sounded as if his throat had been burned by fire, causing people’s backs to chill and their brains to tingle.
However, the ugly figure on the stage continued to laugh vigorously, as if he couldn’t see the astonishment of the crowd. With a hint of wickedness, he said, “Next, let us perform some magic.”
He did not use the word “I”, but “us”.
Everyone’s brows twitched, their hearts thumped, and a bad premonition arose in an instant.
As expected, he squinted his eyes with a look as if he was seriously thinking about something, and muttered to himself, “So what kind of magic are we going to play next?”
When he finished, he answered, cackled twice, laughed even harder, and touched the props on the stage with his hand, “That’s right! We’re going to do the human □□ technique!”
The system’s face had gone completely rigid as it realized that even it couldn’t get out of this chair, and that its powers outside of the rules were being held in check by something, even lost.
The ugly clown spoke again, “In that case, let’s pick the lucky audience, hee hee.”
“Who should I choose?” The ugly man looked a bit distressed, his eyes looking at the many “lucky ones” on the stage, as if he was struggling to decide which one to choose as the lamb to be slaughtered.
Everyone’s eyes were wide open, and their hearts were on the verge of collapsing, almost going crazy.
This was nowhere near being lucky. Everyone present knew that if he picked them, it was definitely a matter of life and death.
The ugly clown’s eyes kept scanning down there, and finally, his eyes stopped, as if he saw something funny.
The system’s heart pitter-pattered, only to see the little clown pointing at itself, opening his mouth with a twisted smile, “Then you’re the one to choose, hee hee hee.”
God said: “Activate Hell mode and proceed directly to the seventh level.”
Level 7: Massacre.
