Fatal Game Syndrome

"You're back, Lingling!"

As soon as he stepped out of the door, Ling Jiushi heard a very familiar voice. His eyes suddenly became hot and he dared not open his eyes.

This was Lu Yanxue's voice, just as he remembered it, as if he had just walked out of an ordinary door and she had already prepared food and was waiting for him.

"what's wrong?"

Lu Yanxue walked up and patted Ling Jiushi on the back and asked softly.

"fine!"

Ling Jiushi opened his eyes, which were filled with tears but extremely dry, and gently shook his head at her.

"I'm glad you're okay. The meal will be ready soon. Please help me call the boss and Chen Fei to come down for dinner!"

Lu Yanxue patted Ling Jiushi's shoulder and turned back to the kitchen. Ling Jiushi stood at the door in a daze, looking at her back, fearing that all this was an illusion.

Lanzhu!

Thinking of Ruan Lanzhu, Ling Jiushi ran upstairs immediately, completely unaware that his old body had regained its youthfulness.

"Lanzhu!"

As soon as he reached the stairs, Ling Jiushi looked up and saw Ruan Lanzhu walking towards him. He was still as handsome and imposing as ever.

"I'm back Lingling!"

Ruan Lanzhu stretched out his hand towards him, and the tears that Ling had been holding back for a long time finally burst out. Without bothering to wipe the tears from his face, Ling grasped the hand that was stretched out to him, as if he was trying to grasp everything that belonged to him, and held it so tightly.

Just like before, she was still the Ruan Lanzhu whose eyes were full of him, the Ruan Lanzhu who had not forgotten him.

Ruan Lanzhu seemed to know what he had been through. He exerted a little force, grasped Ling Jiushi's hand and pulled him into his arms, hugging him tightly with all his strength.

"Lanzhu!"

Ling Jiushi sniffed, buried his head in his neck and took a deep breath. His nose was full of his scent, and he felt very satisfied.

"Are you hungry? Let's go eat first?"

Ruan Lanzhu touched the back of Ling Jiushi's head and asked softly, but Ling Jiushi hugged his waist, buried his head in his arms, and did not want to get up.

"Then let's go back to the room, okay?"

Although Ruan Lanzhu said that he wanted to eat first, he did not loosen his arm around Ling Jiushi at all.

"Ok!"

Ling Jiushi responded muffledly and was about to let go of his hand, but unexpectedly Ruan Lanzhu picked him up. Caught off guard, Ling Jiushi quickly wrapped his hands around Ruan Lanzhu's neck, wrapped his legs around his waist, and was carried upstairs by him.

"What are you doing!"

Ling Jiushi was quite embarrassed. He patted Ruan Lanzhu's back gently, his face reddening to his neck. Although their feelings were tacit, neither of them broke the window paper.

"miss you!"

Ruan Lanzhu's low voice sounded in Ling Jiushi's ears, and her hot breath fell on his ears, as if burning him.

Back in Ruan Lanzhu's bedroom, Ling Jiushi rested his head on Ruan Lanzhu's arm, and the two of them lay face to face on the bed. No one spoke, they just looked at each other quietly.

"I miss you so much!"

Ruan Lanzhu touched Ling Jiushi's cheek deeply and touched the small mole on his nose with her finger. The longing in her eyes could not be hidden.

Ling Jiushi seemed to have guessed something. Without saying a word, he reached out and hugged Ruan Lanzhu tightly, burying his head in his arms.

Perhaps, Ruan Lanzhu had also experienced everything that he had experienced.

"You know, I have lived alone for fifty years in a world without you!"

Ruan Lanzhu's tone seemed very calm, but Ling Jiushi could hear a hint of despair.

"In that world, there is no you, no obsidian, and no door. No one recognizes me, and all traces of you have been erased."

"No matter how hard I search, I can't find any evidence that you ever existed."

"In there, I had parents, brothers, and many relatives. Everyone thought I was crazy, looking for someone who didn't even exist in this world all day long."

Hearing this, Ling Jiushi tightened his grip and hugged Ruan Lanzhu even tighter. Wasn't he the same? This feeling was really desperate. At that time, he thought that if all this really didn't exist, then he would just create another Ruan Lanzhu.

"After enduring for fifty years, I felt that my life was coming to an end, and finally I found the door. I am happy that although it took me fifty years to find a way out, only fifteen minutes passed outside the door. I am very grateful."

At least after he gets out, he still has plenty of time to spend with the people he loves.

"I missed you too, it's driving me crazy!"

Ling Jiushi's voice trembled a little. "I thought everything I had experienced was just my imagination. Because there was no one in the world who cared about me, I imagined a Ruan Lanzhu. Sometimes I even thought I was crazy."

Ruan Lanzhu knew everything that had happened to Ling Jiushi. When he heard the suspicion and fear in his tone, his heart ached.

"It's okay, it's out!"

Ruan Lanzhu bent down and kissed his forehead. Seeing Ling Jiushi’s wet face, she sighed and hugged him again.

The room was very quiet. Ling Jiushi lay on Ruan Lanzhu's chest. Hearing his steady and strong heartbeat, his heart finally calmed down.

The time they spent together always passed quickly. When it was almost dark, Chen Fei's voice came from downstairs.

"Let's go, Chen Fei is calling you!"

Ling Jiushi sat up from the bed and pulled Ruan Lanzhu's arm. Neither of them went downstairs to eat lunch, and Lu Yanxue did not come up to call for help. She didn't know what the two of them had experienced inside the door, but she could see that the two needed time alone, so she was very sensible and didn't come up to disturb them.
