Arc 8: Chapter 13


When Lin Yuan thought of what he was going to do, he felt unbearably sad. He knew that afterwards, Jin Ran would go crazy, fall into the abyss, and be in great pain. But there was no other way. 

521 rubbed against Lin Yuan with some worry: “Senior, don’t be too sad.”

Lin Yuan didn’t cry but his eyes were red. He sniffled and suppressed the sourness in his heart and said: “I’m fine. I’m fine.”

Lin Yuan hadn’t decided on how to die. 521 pulled up its big database of novels and proposed: “Senior, you can try this one. Write a diary that says you like your husband a lot, and then after you die, your husband will find the diary. Once he reads it, he will definitely feel guilt and regret and the blackening value will drop straight to zero!”

Lin Yuan didn’t like this idea. He didn’t want to plan to make his husband hurt after his death. And what was the point of a diary anyways when anyone with eyes could see he liked his husband!

Understanding Lin Yuan’s unwilling expression, 521 said: “Or you can pretend to suffer from a worsening mental state for a few days before you die. Then your husband will blame himself for not taking better care of you.”

Lin Yuan’s brows wrinkled even more. He grabbed 521 and kneaded the fur ball vigorously for a while and then hummed: “No. I’ll just drive off a cliff on a random afternoon.”

521 felt there was no technique to dying that way. What about the dog-blooded regret and guilt?

Lin Yuan looked at the calendar and thought for a bit. He said: “Now it’s the end of November, and the spring festival will be in a month. I’ll do it after the end of the spring festival, so at least they can have a good start to the new year.”

521 didn’t approve: “Senior, there are only five months left until the mission deadline. You can’t waste anymore time. You don’t want to write a diary and don’t want to act sick, let’s do it tomorrow! I think tomorrow is a good day!”

Lin Yuan hesitated. Wouldn’t tomorrow be too sudden? But time was running out, just like 521 said. 

Lin Yuan reluctantly agreed. He buried his face in his pillow and murmured: “Then when can I come back to see my husband again?”

521 said: “If your husband’s blackening values clears immediately, then we’ll follow the original world’s timeline which is three to five years. We can take the average of that, four years!”

“What?!” Lin Yuan’s apricot eyes widened, full of disbelief. Four years was too long for him to be separated from his husband: “No! Eleven months, at most!”

521 thought about it and suggested: “Senior, how about two years? You need at least a year and a half to recover from the car accident, and you have to wait for your husband to find you coincidentally. This is how it went in the original world.]

Lin Yuan was very unwilling, but he had no way to refute.

Because it was the final night, Lin Yuan decided to take the initiative to play the game of pregnant rabbit with Jin Ran. He prepared a lot of things and put on his white rabbit pajamas. 

When Jin Ran came home, as soon as he entered Lin Yuan’s room, he first smelled a familiar fragrance. Then he saw his bunny lying on the bed, face flushed and teary eyes. 

Jin Ran cupped Lin Yuan’s sweat stroked face and asked hoarsely: “What are you doing?”

Lin Yuan’s body was very sensitive now. When he was touched by the other, he couldn’t help humming: “I- I…”

Lin Yuan shyly grabbed the other’s hand and put it on his stomach: “I want to give birth to a baby bunny for you…”

Jin Ran’s fatigue disappeared in an instant, replaced by a scorching fire. His breathing quickened and his fingers sunk into something moist and hot. 

The young man kissed Lin Yuan’s lips urgently and he couldn’t wait to entangle their tongues and bodies. 

Lin Yuan’s hands rubbed Jin Ran’s tight and firm muscles, making him have the urge to lick and bite. 

Thinking of how they wouldn’t be able to see each other after a long time, he ordered Jin Ran while panting: “Jin Ran, lie down. I want to kiss you.”

Jin Ran wiped off a string of saliva on Lin Yuan’s lips and said with a smile: “Kiss me? How are you going to kiss?”

Lin Yuan pressed Jin Ran down onto the bed and said: “You’ll know when you lie down.”

The young man obediently lied on the bed, both curious and amused.

Lin Yuan pulled off Jin Ran’s top, revealing his sculpted chest and abdomen. With red ears, Lin Yuan started by kissing Jin Ran’s Adam’s apple, while his fingers danced over the other party’s skin. 

Jin Ran felt as if every cell in his body was boiling. He whispered hoarsely: “Bunny, don’t just kiss up here. Something lower is waiting for your kisses too.”

Lin Yuan hummed and obediently kissed downwards. 

That night was their most passionate one, as if tomorrow was the end of the world. 

In the middle, Lin Yuan stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked the young man’s lips. His voice was pitiful and nasally: “Jin Ran, do you like it?”

Hearing such soft and lovely words, Jin Ran’s emotions felt like they were no longer under his control. He kissed the ends of Lin Yuan’s moist eyes and said: “I like it, I like it so much…” I like you so much...

Lin Yuan hugged the other’s neck tightly and said coquettishly: “I only want to have your baby rabbits…”

Jin Ran was stunned. Looking at Lin Yuan’s face immersed in desire under him, his heartbeat was confused. His arms around Lin Yuan’s waist tightened like a shackle, and he murmured: “En, I like that. Let’s have a lot of baby rabbits in the future…”

The next morning, Lin Yuan waved goodbye to Jin Ran who drove to work. His hand touched the cold window and he said softly: “I’m sorry, Jin Ran.”

Lin Yuan got dressed, finished breakfast, and then drove away from the house.

Two hours later, Lin Yuan looked up at the empty blue sky and suddenly asked out loud: “Does it hurt when humans get in a car accident?”

There was no fear in his voice, and even a little bit of satisfaction: “Maybe because I’ve been human for too long, I’m strangely feeling happy. I like that I can feel the pain that Jin Ran has experienced.”

521 didn’t understand these feelings. It reported: “Senior, I’ve forged a new identity for you, called Lin Sui. 521 has set it up so that after the car accident, you’ll be sent to a hospital in another city by a group of passerbys where you’ll stay for a year of recuperation.”

This is the illusion 521 set up. In reality, Lin Yuan would be immediately transferred to the system space.

Lin Yuan nodded and thought of Jin Ran, who was still working. The other might be looking forward to going home tonight and hugging him. 

The speed of the car increased like a rocket. The moment when the car rushed off the road and fell, Lin Yuan was suspended in midair and vaguely felt the horror of death, but he wasn’t afraid. Even when his bones crashed and broke, he didn’t feel anything. 

He only felt heartache that Jin Ran would be sad in the future.
