Recap
The answer surfaced.
Because Rong Yu didn’t love him at all.
He just saw a good-looking man who met the standards of a sex partner, so he readily agreed.
But he regarded this as a mutual affection.
___
Yan Zhao felt bitter.
Was there anything more painful than “I treat you as a lover, but you treat me as a friend with benefits”?
His gloomy expression was too obvious, Rong Yu asked, “You don’t want to?”
Yan Zhao: Who wants to be a friend with benefits?
Then he remembered, with Rong Yu’s charm, there were naturally plenty of people who would want to.
In the 6666 world, there were countless demons, ghosts, and even immortals who wanted to climb into the Demon King’s bed and have a one-night stand with him. Strength, appearance, power, status, Rong Yu stood at the top of the world, worshiped by all beings below.
At that time, Rong Yu didn’t like any of them and walked alone for many years. What was carnal pleasure? The Demon King didn’t have such worldly desires.
When he came to the small worlds, perhaps because he lost his power and status, and no longer had a variety of ways to entertain himself, he thought of finding a bed partner for comfort.
Thinking of this, Yan Zhao felt even more bitter.
The self-disciplined Demon King became a playboy, was it his fault again? He kept shooting himself in the foot.
“Forget it if you don’t want to, it was you who climbed into daddy’s bed first and acted outrageously. You have an appetite, I have needs, isn’t it good to each get what we need?” Rong Yu said, “Looking at your reluctant look, do you want to end this relationship? That’s fine too, I won’t force you, from now on I’ll still be daddy, you’ll still be son, we’ll continue to maintain our father-son relationship.”
Yan Zhao: “…”
“No!” He objected.
Rong Yu tilted his head: “Why not? You look unhappy, aren’t you tired of playing and want to end the casual relationship?”
Yan Zhao: …I’m unhappy because I want to have a serious relationship with you!
But he didn’t say it out loud.
The Demon King’s current cynical look clearly showed that he didn’t believe in true love. Even if he said it, he wouldn’t get a response, and most likely would be ridiculed.
In that case, he would rather maintain the status quo.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t even have a casual relationship.
The relationship had come this far, if he worked harder, perhaps he could open Rong Yu’s heart. If they went back, the road ahead would be even more difficult.
Yan Zhao said aggrievedly, “I don’t want it to end.”
Rong Yu crossed his arms: “Then who are you showing your bad mood to?”
Yan Zhao took a deep breath and said calmly, “I’m not satisfied.”
Rong Yu: “…Huh?”
Yan Zhao adapted to his new identity in a second, pushed Rong Yu back onto the bed, and whispered, “You’re full, I’m not yet.”
The silk pajamas were taken off, Rong Yu calmly pointed out: “The crystal nucleus is in the space storage.”
Yan Zhao’s eyes were deep: “My appetite has come, I’ll use you to satisfy my hunger.” He accepted this identity and would hold Rong Yu to fulfill his obligations as a friend with benefits in the future.
…
Yan Zhao was angry, his attack was fierce, bombarding Rong Yu until he was almost dying.
Rong Yu grabbed the pillow, and for a moment had the urge to burn this sun to death.
In several worlds, this sun’s technique was absolutely the worst, bar none. The zombie sun at least knew to be gentle and not make him uncomfortable, this one was really trying his best to kill him.
A whole morning was wasted, Rong Yu thought painfully, the good techniques of the other suns came at a price, they were all earned with his current suffering.
Yan Zhao was unaware of his bad technique, looking at Rong Yu who was lying on the bed with no strength left, his tone smug: “How is it? Better than your ex-husband, right?”
He was secretly competing, even in this aspect.
His lover calling out someone else’s name in bed was extremely hurtful and insulting. Yan Zhao was brooding over it and had to make Rong Yu admit that he was better than the other man in this aspect.
Rong Yu: “…Haha.”
Yan Zhao had stayed in the Myriad Gods Realm for too long and didn’t understand the sarcastic meaning of this laughter among humans.
But he understood human language.
Rong Yu’s next sentence was: “How dare you mention it? You have the worst technique of all.”
“…” Yan Zhao was dealt a blow.
Soon he came back to his senses and discovered an even bigger blow.
“What do you mean by all?!” Yan Zhao raised his voice incredulously, “Besides an ex-husband, who else do you have?!”
“There’s also an ex-fiancé.” Rong Yu said lightly, “His name is Fu Qianzhi, his technique in bed is ten times better than yours.”
He disappeared on the eve of their wedding, Fu Qianzhi was indeed his fiancé. Then he went to marry Chu Zhuo, the logic was flawless.
Yan Zhao: “!!!”
Fiancé? This one even reached the point of discussing marriage??
And ten times better than him???
A day ago, Yan Zhao thought there was nothing worse than Rong Yu having an ex.
The truth told him there really was, Rong Yu had two exes.
Yan Zhao felt his head glowing green, green hats were put on his head one after another.
No, he wasn’t even qualified to wear a green hat. He wasn’t even Rong Yu’s legitimate lover, just a friend with benefits who each got what they needed.
Yan Zhao asked with a wry smile, “Do you still like him?”
Rong Yu said honestly: “Yes, I do. Big, skilled, great body, high-ranking, powerful, and handsome. I don’t just like him, I love him to death.”
…It was clearly saying love, but Yan Zhao’s heart didn’t fluctuate at all this time, he didn’t know if it was because he was numb from the hurt.
Wait a minute…
Yan Zhao suddenly grasped the key point: “Then do you like Chu Zhuo?”
Rong Yu nodded: “Yes, I do. Big, skilled, great body, high-ranking, powerful, and handsome. I don’t just like him, I love him to death.”
Yan Zhao: “…” Was there any difference between these words and the previous evaluation of Fu Qianzhi!
Yan Zhao continued to ask: “Then do you like me?”
“Of course I do, after all, you also have good looks and a good body…”
Yan Zhao asked again: “Then do you love me?”
This time Rong Yu was silent.
Yan Zhao’s heart was in his throat.
After a while, Rong Yu shook his head firmly: “No.”
Yan Zhao asked calmly, “Why?”
Rong Yu: “You’re big but unskilled.”
“…” Extremely hurtful.
But Yan Zhao laughed.
So that was it.
Rong Yu didn’t just not love him, he also didn’t love Chu Zhuo, didn’t love Fu Qianzhi, didn’t love anyone. His liking was superficial, as long as the external conditions were good enough, he could easily say love to anyone.
But this wasn’t love.
True love was unique.
Yan Zhao didn’t understand before, but after falling in love with Rong Yu, he understood. In the past, the sun looked down upon all beings from high above, now the sun’s gaze only stayed on Rong Yu.
After seeing the ultimate brilliance of the red clothes, he could no longer see the colorful colors of the vast world.
If you love everyone, then you love no one.
Yan Zhao’s mood strangely calmed down, even with a hint of eerie joy.
Despite just learning that Rong Yu had another ex.
But he also learned that Rong Yu didn’t love anyone.
Compared to a heart completely tied to another person, this situation of being flirtatious but never giving true feelings actually made Yan Zhao feel relieved.
Pursuing a heartless person was much easier than pursuing someone who was devoted to another.
Yan Zhao was also very good at finding angles to comfort himself.
Blood Jade Bracelet: Demon King, what are you doing, Chu Zhuo and Fu Qianzhi are clearly the Main God!
Rong Yu: Is he feeling wronged?
Blood Jade Bracelet: Of course!
Rong Yu: He has to suffer in silence.
Rong Yu: His suffering makes me feel relieved.
Blood Jade Bracelet: …
Wait, the Demon King’s tone was not right.
Could it be that the Demon King had discovered that the Main God was really the Main God now?
Clearly, in the last world, the Demon King no longer hated the Main God, and didn’t torture him much. The only cup of poisoned wine he offered was to give the Main God a quick death… It didn’t make sense that in this world, the Demon King deliberately made the ignorant Main God sad.
Unless the Demon King knew that the Main God was not ignorant now, but was pretending to be ignorant, so the Demon King also pretended to be ignorant.
The Blood Jade Bracelet shuddered.
Wouldn’t it be miserable if it helped the Main God deceive the Demon King?
Help, why did it get involved in the mutual acting of this couple!
Then should it inform the Main God?
…Forget it, no more纠结 (struggling), if the Main God didn’t take the initiative to contact it, it couldn’t convey a message to the Main God either.
This morning it was in the little black room, and the Main God didn’t take the opportunity to contact it.
——Of course. The Demon King was simply captivating and soul-stirring, how could Yan Zhao be distracted at this time.
After thinking about it, the Blood Jade Bracelet decided to play dead to the end. It had already seen the family status between the Main God and the Demon King, it could disobey the Main God, but it must not betray the Demon King!
…
“Are you crazy?” Rong Yu was surprised, “I said you were bad in bed, and you actually laughed?”
Yan Zhao quickly pursed his lips, but his eyes were still full of good mood.
The Blood Jade Bracelet couldn’t bear to look directly. Main God, you don’t know that those people are all you, so what’s there to be happy about being cheated on so many times!
The Blood Jade Bracelet didn’t understand the Main God’s brain circuit.
If he only knew that Rong Yu had an ex, then it was undoubtedly terrible news.
But he originally had worse news – Rong Yu had fallen in love with someone else.
So in comparison, Rong Yu didn’t love anyone, just had two exes who were casual relationships, could this be considered bad news?
This was great news!
Facing Rong Yu, Yan Zhao almost had no bottom line or standards.
“Help me get dressed.” Rong Yu said lazily, “I want to go for a walk in the base.”
Yan Zhao put a long-sleeved T-shirt on him: “Where do you want to go?”
“Area D.”
Rong Yu was interested in Area D because Luo Shui said that there was a trading market in Area D. People would put some items there to exchange for medicine, food, and daily necessities.
“The trading market uses bartering, currency has completely become waste paper in the apocalypse. Many jewels that were worth a fortune before the apocalypse can now be exchanged for just a few packs of instant noodles. Even so, very few people would exchange them, now food is the real treasure, jewels are worthless.” Luo Shui said.
How could jewels be worthless? Rong Yu thought.
He liked these things the most.
_
Area D.
Compared to the comfortable and bright apartments in Area A, the people in Area D all lived in tents. Electricity was precious, and there was no power supply here after nightfall.
People would seize the time to set up stalls and sell things during the day, hoping to exchange them for a day’s food.
Trading market, a woman sat on a small bench, the carpet in front of her was filled with a dazzling array of jewelry. She was a rich lady before the apocalypse, shopping with her girlfriends, doing beauty treatments, drinking afternoon tea every day, living a very comfortable life. But after the apocalypse, her husband and son turned into zombies, and she lost the ability to survive.
She used to look down on the workers who worked hard under the scorching sun from her bright floor-to-ceiling windows, mocking the lower class people for their hard work all day long, while she was born with a good life.
Poor children had to be independent early on, but she grew up like a princess. There was once a child from a poor family who went around selling things, asking her to buy a box of cigarettes, and gave her a lighter as a gift. She pushed him away contemptuously: “My husband doesn’t smoke cheap cigarettes.”
The tables had turned, now she was the lower class in the apocalypse. Not to mention exquisite afternoon tea, she couldn’t even fill her stomach.
Before, she relied on selling designer bags to get by, those bags could still hold things, they had some practicality. Jewelry was truly useless, her business was bleak, and she had gained nothing for days.
If she couldn’t exchange for food again, she would starve to death.
Desperately, no one stopped to patronize her jewelry, they passed by her, stopped at the stall next door, and would rather exchange food for a lighter.
Jewelry was not as valuable as a lighter in the apocalypse.
Ironically, the stall owner next to her was the child who had sold her cigarettes.
The lighter was exchanged for two boxes of biscuits, and the hungry child immediately tore open the biscuits and chewed them with big mouthfuls.
The woman watched enviously, her stomach growling. Hunger drove people crazy, the child had no parents with him, she even thought about whether to snatch the box of biscuits.
“Here.” The child suddenly handed her the remaining half box of biscuits.
The woman was stunned.
“I heard your stomach growling.” The child said, “I’ll share some with you.”
The woman blushed.
This was not out of shame. The child didn’t recognize her. She was now ragged, haggard, and completely different from the glamorous lady she once was.
She was ashamed of her past shameful thoughts.
She ate the biscuits, her eyes getting hot, she thought of her son who would share his snacks with her.
“I didn’t know you still liked these jewels, they are not as beautiful as crystal nuclei.” A man’s voice came from above.
“Aren’t all the crystal nuclei fed to you?” Another young man said lazily.
Crystal nuclei? They were ability users!
Ability users were definitely big customers in Area D, they often didn’t lack food.
The woman stood up awkwardly and was stunned when she saw the two people in front of her.
She had never seen such handsome men before the apocalypse. What’s more, after the apocalypse, everyone was disheveled, they simply stood out from the crowd.
“Do you two gentlemen have anything you like?” She quickly asked.
Rong Yu glanced at it: “I’ll take them all.”
The woman was stunned: “A-all of them?”
Yan Zhao also frowned: “All of them?”
“What? You don’t want to buy them?” Rong Yu sneered.
Yan Zhao said, “I see that some of them are defective. If you want them, I’ll take you to a jewelry store.”
Was this before the apocalypse? Talking about going to a jewelry store so casually? There were zombies everywhere outside. The woman thought blankly.
“I’ll buy them back to smash them for fun.” Rong Yu dealt another heavy blow.
Woman: “…” All her showing off behavior before the apocalypse was not as crazy as this person.
Yan Zhao’s eyebrows twitched. This hobby… was very Demon King-like.
“Are you refusing to buy them for me? You don’t love me, do you? You even hesitated.” Rong Yu suddenly got angry, “Ming Huai would have bought them all for me without a second thought.”
Yan Zhao: “Okay, okay, I’ll buy them for you.”
Three seconds later.
“Who is Ming Huai again?!”
The woman shuddered. These two must not fight at her stall.
Rong Yu said calmly, “My ex-boyfriend.”
