Arc 4: Chapter 23
Lin Yuan’s appearance made Lu Ye’s tremble with an irresistible surge of desire, and his eyes sharpened slightly. He tried to restrain the dark thoughts in his heart and said: “But Sui Sui will still feel pain.” He was already very careful last night, but the after effects were still quite severe.
“Sui Sui, I don’t want to hurt you…” Lu Ye said lowly, his hand sliding up to touch Lin Yuan’s thin neck, stroking along his arteries.
Lin Yuan hazily grabbed the other’s hand and his long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings:
“It’s okay…”
“It actually doesn’t hurt that much… Yesterday… it felt really good…”
Lin Yuan couldn’t help but remember some scenes from last night. When the other was propped up above and gazing down at him, his eyes were attracted to the other’s sharp jawline, where a bead of sweat had slipped down Lu Ye’s cheek and was about to fall. Unknowingly, he had the strong impulse to lick it away.
But he couldn’t control his body, and could only stare at that drop, imagining the salty taste and hot temperature.
Now Lin Yuan could make up for what he wanted to do last night. He wrapped his arms around Lu Ye’s neck and shortened the distance between them, extending soft and wet tongue to gently lick Lu Ye’s chin.
“Lu Ye, I liked it…”
Lu Ye could no longer resist. He was dry and hot and in desperate need of something to quench the fire burning in his body.
A large and slender hand fell on Lin Yuan’s thin waist and pulled up his pajamas.
Lu Ye looked with satisfaction at the masterpiece he made last night on Lin Yuan’s body, blue fingerprints, crimson marks, and even deep teeth marks that netted across the tender skin.
The corners of his lips hooked with a little pride and he said alluringly: “Okay, since Sui Sui liked it so much, then next time we’ll do it again.”
Lin Yuan shyly buried his face in Lu Ye’s neck and nodded expectantly: “En.”
Lu Ye held his obedient and soft baby, kissing here and touching there, unable to stop for a second.
Suddenly, he remembered something important and said uncertainly: “Sui Sui, there’s something I need to tell you…”
Lin Yuan hummed and asked: “What is it?”
Lu Ye’s voice was gentle to the extreme: “I know that Sui Sui liked what we did last night, but if you’re controlled by my mental power too much, you might end up getting addicted to the feeling.”
Lin Yuan opened his eyes a little worriedly, the feeling was indeed really easy to get addicted to. “Then what should we do?” Lin Yuan asked, regardless of how good it felt, addiction was not anything good.
But… but it did feel really good.
Lu Ye saw through Lin Yuan’s conflicted thoughts and couldn’t help but tease him: “For Sui Sui’s safety and health, I won’t use my mental power on you in the future.”
Lin Yuan shot up in Lu Ye’s lap: “Ah? Never again? Not even once?”
Lu Ye held back his smile. He was like an ordinary kid, teasing the person he liked and deliberately making the other party cry and spending the effort to coax afterwards. Super childish.
“Nope, not once.”
If Lin Yuan knew earlier that he could only experience such a thing once, then he would’ve enjoyed it all night ah.
He let out a deep sigh and stared up at Lu Ye with round and wet eyes: “Then half a time? Can you control me for only half of the time?”
Lu Ye pretended to be helpless and shook his head: “Sorry, not even half a time.”
Lin Yuan pouted with sadness and grabbed Lu Ye’s shirt. When he thought of how he wouldn’t be able to experience it anymore, he let out a little aggrieved sob.
“Then… then before I get addicted, can’t we do it a few more times?”
Looking at Lin Yuan’s small wrinkled face and red eyes, Lu Ye’s impulse to tease was finally satisfied. He kissed his baby comfortingly and his Adam’s apple rolled up and down once. “Okay, I’ll listen to Sui Sui.”
Getting Lu Ye's agreement, Lin Yuan was very happy.

After a few days of rest, Lin Yuan felt that he was as good as new. He couldn’t wait to beg Lu Ye to do it.
This time, Lu Ye was more experienced and careful. The next day, Lin Yuan was still dizzy and his vision was unclear, but his appetite was much better than last time.
The two stayed intimate in the villa and didn’t care about the outside world at all.
Finally one morning, Nan City’s base’s main power user group knocked on their door and invited them to join a mission of killing zombies.
This main power user group could dispatch the various smaller power user teams in the base on missions, but this was also heavily dependent on the willingness of these smaller teams to cooperate.
Perhaps after some time, this dynamic would break down, and the cooperation between these forces in the base will dwindle. In the end, the power users would fight and kill each other for more rights in the base.
Lin Yuan wanted to refuse this mission. In the original plot, it was during this mission that Meng Mingqian’s group deliberately attracted zombies to kill Lu Ye. This approach was very cruel and useful. It both absolved them of all of the blame, and pushed Lu Ye to his breaking point. Although Lu Ye survived in the end, the betrayal and overuse of his power made him go crazy.
521 sensed Lin Yuan’s thoughts and felt that its senior had forgotten that they had a job to do. It popped out and rubbed against Lin Yuan and reminded: “Senior, even if you refuse the task, what will happen will still happen. Lu Ye will encounter zombies one day, this is the way of the world.”
Lin Yuan drooped his head and shrank into the sofa, not wanting to respond.
521 softened its voice: “Senior, the rules of the world won’t change. In fact, if you continue to stay inside the base, it’s likely that zombies will besiege the city instead.”
Lin Yuan knew logically that what 521 said was true, but his heart was sad and uncomfortable. His husband was really pitiful, and even if he had come early, nothing could be changed.
He used to think that he could protect Lu Ye from everything, but it was all wishful thinking.
When they went to bed that night, Lin Yuan crawled into Lu Ye’s arms and clung to him tightly, saying softly: “Lu Ye, I will protect you well. I promise.”
Lu Ye smiled at him and nodded: “Okay, Sui Sui will protect me.”

The day of the mission, all of the power users gathered in the hall, and their leader was Song Ting, who had previously invited Lu Ye and Lin Yuan to join the base’s power user’s main organization.
Lin Yuan looked around and recognized many faces. There was the protagonist shou Ruan Qing, gong No.1 Meng Mingqian, gong No.2 Min Chengze, and gong No.3 Shen Su, who they met on the walk, and gong No.4, who he had never seen before.
Meng Mingqian saw Lu Ye and approached with a smile on his face, as if they had no previous conflicts: “Brother Lu, you’re also here, what a coincidence.”
Lin Yuan rolled his eyes dramatically.
Lu Ye glanced at Meng Mingqian quickly and said shallowly: “What a coincidence.”
“I heard that many organizations tried to recruit Brother Lu, sure enough, Brother Lu is still as outstanding as before.” Meng Mingqian said.
Lin Yuan couldn’t bother to listen to Meng Mingqian’s hypocrisy. He stood in front of Lu Ye in a protective posture and said coldly: “You say that my husband is powerful now, but at the beginning of the apocalypse, you were the one who bullied him and drove him away.”
The smile on Meng Mingqian’s face stiffened and he could hardly maintain his expression.
Lu Ye patted Lin Yuan’s hair and said gently: “Sui Sui, don’t be angry. You don’t have to care about him.”
