Return to the Origin [1]
What Chen Liguo needed to change in this world was his own destiny.
But this thing called destiny was always changing imperceptibly. Perhaps at a time unknown to you it had already quietly taken a turn.
The past two terms might have felt very long for Chen Liguo before but now they passed in the blink of an eye.
During summer vacation Zhou Yi dragged Chen Liguo to practice in the company.
Chen Liguo started trying to do some simple work. In fact, the more familiar he became with Zhou Yi the more he could feel that his character wasn't as soft as the man showed. Although he was often smiling he was abnormally stubborn after deciding upon something.
Even so, Zhou Yi's attitude towards Chen Liguo had always been soft and he never forced him to do anything.
Chen Liguo liked the floor-to-ceiling window in Zhou Yi's office the most, so when resting he liked to lie there and look through it.
Zhou Yi asked, "You like it this much?"
Chen Liguo looked down and said, "Yeah, looking at the people going everywhere like ants packed as thick as huckleberries. It's fun."
Zhou Yi always felt that Chen Liguo was like a child who didn't grow up, even more so at this moment. He said, "It will be your birthday in a few days, do you have any ideas?"
Chen Liguo turned his head and smiled at Zhou Yi. He said, "Haven't you already settled everything? I'll listen to you."
Zhou Yi heard this and the smile on his face deepened.
Chen Liguo had always been expecting the gift that Zhou Yi promised him. With Zhou Yi's character he would use the word 'important' as an adjective only in rare cases.
Chen Liguo was already a little too impatient to wait.
The weather was getting hotter and hotter and the calendar flipped from July to August.
Chen Liguo's birthday was during the summer vacation, so he couldn't invite his schoolmates from university.
However, Zhou Yi still called over all their friends from their original basketball team and even invited several girls who had a good relationship with Chen Liguo.
After everyone finished eating they went to the KTV. Zhou Yi also brought out the birthday cake he had bought.
The cake was very big and had a creamy aroma. It looked like an orange basketball. The craftsmanship was very exquisite.
Zhou Yi sung with the microphone then pulled out the cake.
Zhou Yi was in the middle of sticking in the candles when Chen Liguo said, "I'll go use the washroom."
He told him to quickly go and come back soon.
Chen Liguo hastily went to the washroom. After solving his problem he wanted to return as soon as possible.
However, he didn't expect that he would see an acquaintance at the door--Lin Zhaorong.
Lin Zhaorong looked at Chen Liguo, his eyes filled with emotions that Chen Liguo did not understand. His face seemed to be a lot more weathered down compared to before, inexplicably making people feel that he aged a lot.
"Happy birthday." He said.
Chen Liguo's heart moved. He said, "En, thank you."
Lin Zhaorong pursed his lips, his gaze fixed on Chen Liguo with rapt attention.
Chen Liguo inexplicably felt panicked by his stare and wanted to walk past him but not two steps later he was directly pushed into the wall by Lin Zhaorong.
Lin Zhaorong was much taller than Chen Liguo. He pressed his two hands against the wall on both sides of Chen Liguo's head and gazed at the person before him.
Chen Liguo felt that Lin Zhaorong's gaze was too frightening. It was just like a terminally ill patient, eyes full of despair.
"Chen Liguo." Lin Zhaorong said. "I really want you."
Chen Liguo did not understand why there would be such strong emotions in Lin Zhaorong's eyes. As a matter of fact, he and Lin Zhaorong only met a few times. He really could not comprehend why Lin Zhaorong liked him.
Chen Liguo could only force himself with difficulty to respond with a thank you.
However, what Lin Zhaorong wanted was never this 'thank you' from Chen Liguo. He lowered his head slowly and rested his forehead against Chen Liguo's. Then he asked slowly, "Are you happy?"
Chen Liguo looked at Lin Zhaorong's face that was only a few inches away and asked in confusion, "What's the matter? Of course I'm very happy."
How could he be unhappy?
He had parents, Zhou Yi, everything he's ever dreamed of. How could he be unhappy?
Lin Zhaorong did not say anything. He was controlling his emotions with all his strength.
Chen Liguo felt that the Lin Zhaorong before him was a little frightening, as if he would do something irredeemable in the next moment.
However, in the end Lin Zhaorong did not do anything at all. The last thing he did was to hold Chen Liguo's hand and dropping a kiss with an unclear meaning onto the couple's watch that Zhou Yi had given him.
"It's good that you're happy." Lin Zhaorong smiled.
Chen Liguo looked at Lin Zhaorong's smile but felt that it would have been better if he did not for Lin Zhaorong's eyes were glistening with water and he could see the agony on his face.
"Happy birthday." Lin Zhaorong said and finally let go of Chen Liguo.
Chen Liguo looked at him with hesitation and asked, "Are you alright?" He felt that Lin Zhaorong's emotions weren't quite right.
"I'm fine." Lin Zhaorong lit a cigarette and slowly shut his eyes. He said, "Go, they're all waiting for you."
Chen Liguo nodded. He felt that Lin Zhaorong actually wasn't too bad…..
Lin Zhaorong watched Chen Liguo go and the smile on his face finally faded, turning into exhaustion and despair.
"It's fine as long as you're happy." Putting out the smoke, Lin Zhaorong spoke to the air.
Chen Liguo returned to the private room.
Nineteen candles were already stuck into the cake. The lights were also turned off. Chen Liguo walked in and saw the expression of anticipation in everyone's eyes.
"You're back." Zhou Yi's voice was soft. He said, "Come on, we'll sing you a birthday song."
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you." Everyone's singing rang out.
Chen Liguo suddenly felt like crying.
This was his dream birthday. Everyone getting together, singing a birthday song for him, making a wish and blowing out the candles.
Chen Liguo wiped his nose and said, "Thank you everyone."
Zhou YP saPd, "Make a wPsh, Guoguo."
Chen LPguo looked at the cake and secretly made three wPshes Pn hPs heart. Then he took a breath and blew out the candles.
Zhou YP saw that Chen LPguo made hPs wPsh but dPd not turn the lPghts back on. Instead, he saPd, "Guoguo, I have a gPft for you."
Chen Liguo showed a look of anticipation.
Zhou Yi took out a small box from his arms and then solemnly opened it.
Chen Liguo saw a pair of beautiful platinum men's rings in the box.
Zhou Yi said, "Chen Liguo, I like you. Would you be willing to be with me forever?"
As soon as these words were spoken the people around them issued sounds of exclamation but this exclaim quickly turned into chants of 'Agree, agree agree'.
Chen Liguo's gaze moved from the diamond ring to Zhou Yi's face.
Zhou Yi was smiling lightly, his expression so gentle, the dimple on his cheek so lovely. Chen Liguo's heart beat wildly.
Then the scene suddenly froze, as if the pause button on a television show was pressed.
The system's voice reverberated in Chen Liguo's mind. It was still that cold mechanical sound but there seemed to be some other emotions in there. The system asked, "Chen Liguo, do you wish to stay in this world?"
All scenes would freeze at the best part.
If Chen Liguo was a starving beggar then before him was a big meal with all the things he wanted to eat on it. This temptation, who could bear it?
Chen Liguo rubbed his eyes and said, "System, you're too much."
The system didn't make a sound.
Chen Liguo finally cried. He said, "How can I put it down? How can I put it down--"
He finally awoke from the dream.
So many wonderful things were nothing more than a dream. Chen Liguo cried in despair. None of these were his. He was a parentless, loverless orphan with nothing.
The system's voice unexpectedly softened. It said, "So long as you desire it, you can stay here forever."
Chen Liguo's sobbing did not stop.
The system said, "This world was originally designed for you, a reward for you."
Chen Liguo cried until his entire face was messed up. He crouched on the ground, his back constantly shaking.
The system said, "So many worlds, it's been hard on you."
It did not comfort Chen Liguo. Any words would be superfluous at this time. It was better to let Chen Liguo cry and vent the grievances in his heart.
Chen Liguo asked, "Then what about Zhou Yi? The Zhou Yi in my world--"
The system said, "Chen Liguo, Zhou Yi is fine. You doing so many tasks is to resurrect yourself."
Chen Liguo was still crying. He asked with a sobbing tone, "Will he still marry someone else? Is that so?"
Before dying, Zhou Yi's last words were that he was going to marry someone else. These words were like a magic spell, rigidly tangling around Chen Liguo's heart, making him unable to rest or eat in peace.
The system said, "Sorry, I do not know."
Chen Liguo was about to pass out from crying.
The system listened as he continued to cry.
Chen Liguo raised his head and saw the platinum ring held in the hand of this world's Zhou Yi. He wiped his tears and slowly took the ring out of the box then put it on his ring finger with shaking hands.
The ring was very suitable. Presumably it was custom made by Zhou Yi. Chen Liguo stared at his finger both crying and laughing. He said, "It looks really nice ah."
No one replied.
"It looks really nice ah." Chen Liguo said. "But….. It's not mine."
The system asked, "Chen Liguo?"
"I want to go back." Chen Liguo smiled with difficulty. He said "This is not my world. I…… am afraid of waking from this dream."
The system's tone was full of doubts. It said, "But as long as you stay, this is the real world."
"No." Chen Liguo's tone was full of firmness. He said, "This is not real."
It was the system's first time seeing such a clear headed host.
It had followed some hosts before. Most of them chose the last world that was their reward, a perfect world. The small number of people who chose to return did so due to having things they could not let go of in their original world.
Then what was Chen Liguo unable to let go of? The Zhou Yi who about about to get married and leave him?
The system could not understand. It asked, "Chen Liguo, why?"
Chen Liguo said, "Because I love him." He loved the Zhou Yi who was going to get married. Even though Zhou Yi was going to leave him, the one he loved was him.
The system asked, "Have you decided?"
Chen Liguo confirmed, "I've decided."
The system let out a low sigh in its heart. Just as it was about to start, it heard Chen Liguo tell it to hold on.
The system thought that Chen Liguo changed his mind but saw Chen Liguo dry his eyes and said with a smile, "Can't I take one thing to my next world? I haven't taken anything before, can I bring this ring back to my world?"
The system said, "Of course you can." In fact, it was not allowed. All things in quick transmigration worlds are not allowed to be brought back to the host's original world. However, for unknown reasons, the system agreed to Chen Liguo's request.
Chen Liguo wiped clean his tears and said, "Dad, you really are my good daddy."
System: "……" I beg you, don't speak.
Chen Liguo made his choice and the system began to adjust the parameters to allow him to return to his original world.
Chen Liguo saw the wonderful sight before him collapse and fall apart, just like data being broken down. That Zhou Yi who liked Chen Liguo turned into fragments of data and was swept into the darkness in Chen Liguo's vision.
Chen Liguo watched on quietly until a white light appeared before him.
The system said, "You've returned."
Before Chen Liguo could react he was hugged strongly by someone.
The one who pulled him into their arms fiercely said, "Chen Liguo I really want to fucking fuck you to death--"
Chen Liguo didn't understand what was happening at all and felt a pair of lips seal his own.
It was a kiss full of emotions, ecstasy, anger, desperation, and surprise. Chen Liguo couldn't breath, but he did not struggle.
Because he knew the name of the person kissing him--Zhou Yi, his Zhou Yi.
Chen Liguo was in a trace and asked the system, "Have I not returned yet?"
The system said, "You've returned ah."
Chen Liguo asked, "If I'm back why is Zhou Yi kissing me?"
The system said, "Where would I know?"
When Zhou Yi finally let go of Chen Liguo, his lips were swollen.
The two stood on the main road. The people in the surroundings began to point at them.
Chen Liguo's entire person was muddled and completely confused. He was pulled along wildly by his right hand and did not react until they arrived home.
"Zhou, Zhou Yi." Chen Liguo asked. "What are you doing?"
Zhou Yi stared at Chen Liguo ferociously, as if he were staring at a piece of meat in his hand. He said, "Don't speak--"
Chen Liguo was dazed. It wasn't until he was pushed on the bed that he asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"
Zhou Yi said, "I shouldn't have been soft with you. Fuck it!
This was Zhou Yi's first time being so unruly and his first time swearing such profanities. The rims of his eyes were red from his anger, just like a wild beast enraged to the extreme.
Chen Liguo's shirt was pushed up and Zhou Yi immediately bit Chen Liguo's chest.
Chen Liguo was in total confusion. He exclaimed, "Zhou Yi, calm down a little!"
Zhou Yi said, "I can't fucking calm down. Chen Liguo, I almost lost you. I almost lost you forever!"
He held Chen Liguo's body firmly, as if he wanted to embed Chen Liguo's entire person into his body.
Chen Liguo asked, "What are you saying?"
Zhou Yi reached out and brushed the hair on Chen Liguo's forehead. Then he said, "In the last world you transmigrated to, I was called Lin Zhaorong."
Chen Liguo instantly understood. His eyes widened in astonishment. He asked, "You, you transmigrated with me?"
Zhou Yi said, "If not then who do you think the people who topped you in every world were?"
Chen Liguo felt like his eyes were going to fall out. His mind was so chaotic for a time that he couldn't think properly.
Zhou Yi didn't give Chen Liguo the time to either. At least, not now.
Before Chen Liguo could react Zhou Yi had already pulled off his pants.
Then, struck dumb with astonishment, Chen Liguo watched as Zhou Yi took out lubricant that had already been prepared.
Chen Liguo asked in alarm, "When did you prepare this?"
Zhou Yi gnashed his teeth, "You just can't ask who I'm getting married to?"
Just as Chen Liguo wanted to ask, 'Isn't it that long-haired woman?' he remembered that the long haired woman who claimed she was going to marry Zhou Yi was actually his older sister, Zhou Chun.
Chen Liguo gasped for air and said, "Isn't this too fast?!"
Zhou Yi said, "Once I'm in you won't dislike it for being quick anymore."
Right after he said this Chen Liguo was prodded into. The most tragic thing was that this was his first time in this world. Although Zhou Yi was quite gentle Chen Liguo still felt pain.
Chen Liguo drew a breath, tears in his eyes. He asked, "System, am I dreaming?"
The system whose sight was covered with mosaics again said, "I also suspect that I'm dreaming."
Chen Liguo: "……" Hold on a minute, originally the system's shield would only block the scene, not the sound. Then……
Chen Liguo could not think about the rest carefully for when Zhou Yi found out that he was becoming absent-minded he worked even harder.
He worked from morning till the sun set in the afternoon.
When Chen Liguo finally reached his limits he cried to Zhou Yi to spare him.
Zhou Yi grinned evilly and said, "I've fucking held back for so many years, you want me to spare you?"
Chen Liguo lay on the bed and wanted to crawl away but was dragged back by Zhou Yi.
In any case, Chen Liguo thoroughly saw Zhou Yi's wild side this day. He did not know that Zhou Yi could say so many vulgar words and play in so many ways.
This was the real world, so Chen Liguo did not have those natural talents. Thus, when he was finally done into incontinence by Zhou Yi his entire person practically went insane. He nearly wanted to kneel to Zhou Yi and beg him to spare him.
Zhou Yi pinched Chen Liguo's ear lobe and said, "I gave you so many secret signs, how did you not understand?"
Chen Liguo cried, "I just thought that you were a big brother from the same world, how could I know that it was you ah."
Zhou Yi berated, "You actually didn't recognize me!"
Chen Liguo said, "I was wrong Zhou Yi, I was wrong brother, I was wrong father--"
Zhou Yi said, "No use!"
Chen Liguo: "……" Really going to die if we do it again.
Ultimately, it turned out that the human potential was infinite. You might have thought that you were going to die but in fact could persevere for a long time.
However, when he woke up the next day Chen Liguo really felt that his body had been hollowed out. He lay in bed at the gate of death, unable to say a single word.
Zhou Yi slept next to Chen Liguo, his arm around his waist, his mouth sucking on Chen Liguo's earlobe.
Chen Liguo couldn't even cry. He hoarsely said that he needed to pee pee.
Zhou Yi said he'd accompany him.
As if Chen Liguo would dare let him accompany him. He tremblingly said that he could go himself.
Zhou Yi said, "What are you afraid of? It's not as if I'll do anything to you."
Chen Liguo naively believed him. Then was done once again by him in the washroom.
When Chen Liguo was pressed onto the vanity tablehe thought that people really couldn't be restrained for a long time. After holding back for so long it was easy to turn into a pervert. Once one became a pervert it would be fatal.
This time they did it for two full days.
Chen Liguo felt that the whole world was pitch black and the sun and moon gave no light.
On the contrary Zhou Yi was in high spirits. The next morning he made breakfast for Chen Liguo.
Chen Liguo ate the food and laid in bed, resembling a lifeless corpse.
Zhou Yi said, "Chen Liguo, let's have a good talk?"
Chen Liguo's eye moved a little.
Zhou Yi said, "If you agree then move up and down, if you don't agree move left and right."
Chen Liguo's eyes moved up and down.
Zhou Yi saw Chen Liguo like this and found it both cute and a little heart wrenching. He said, "I know I went too far this time. How about this, you rest for two days and then we'll talk again after."
Chen Liguo almost rolled his eyes at him.
Zhou Yi said, "Good, have a good rest."
Chen Liguo: "……"
At this time the system's voice also rang out. It said, "Chen Liguo, I'm going to go."
Chen Liguo was stunned and immediately asked, "When are you leaving?"
The system said, "After the handover to the headquarters is done I will go."
Chen Liguo said, "Dad…… I'm reluctant to part with you."
The system didn't make a sound.
Chen Liguo said, "Tong-er, stay here and accompany me a bit more okay?"
The system gnashed its teeth in anger and retorted, "Stay here to see mosaics?"
Chen Liguo: "……" Cough cough.
The system said, "It wasn't damned easy for me to finish work and you still ask me to work overtime?"
Chen Liguo: "……" Yi, system swore.
The system said, "Chen Liguo, continue acting like this and you're going to be sued by the AI labor association."
Chen Liguo shed a single tear of shame.
The system expressed that although it had been with Chen Liguo for a long time and it was somewhat begrudging, it still had poetry and distance and would absolutely not want to stick around.
Chen Liguo said, "Then come to earth often to look around ah."
The system told him to wait until it got a body.
Chen Liguo reminded it to get a better looking one.
The system asked in which world did it give him a body that didn't look good.
Chen Liguo felt that it was very convincing. Being a beauty lover was innate and did not need to be cultivated.
The system said, "You live well with Zhou Yi."
Chen Liguo answered, "En."
The system reminded, "Be a bit more careful about Zhou Chun."
Chen Liguo replied, "Okay."
The system remarked, "I won't miss you."
Chen Liguo responded, "Ah."
The system said, "So don't miss me either." Meeting me isn't anything good.
Chen Liguo said, "Won't miss won't miss."
The system said, "Son, goodbye."
Chen Liguo replied, "Daddy, goodbye."
A little later, Chen Liguo asked, "Are you gone?"
The system said, "Not yet."
Another little while later, Chen Liguo asked again. "Have you left?"
The system said, "…… Not yet."
Yet another little while later, before Chen Liguo could speak the system said angrily, "Don't fucking ask again. I'll tell you when I leave."
Chen Liguo: "……. Oh."
System: "What's with that disappointed tone?? Do you want me to pull you back and transmigrate another dozen times?"
Chen Liguo said, "No no, I'm just asking casually."
System: "Humph."
Chen Liguo: "……" Dad, you're such a tsundere.
Thank you darlings for the mines, grenades, and rockets. Special thanks to darling Riji for the deep water torpedo. Thank you roar!!!
Misogi: Damn had to cry when CLG started crying, watching him take the ring was so sad T^T also Zhou Yi so fierce ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
