Quick Transmigration: After Fake Death, All the Protagonists I Flirted With Went Crazy

Gu Yao felt a little unaccustomed to the physical presence again.

After being a ghost for three days, my whole body felt light and airy, and I had gotten used to the feeling of being able to float and walk.

This heavy and useless body is really unpleasant.

It felt like being strapped with dozens of kilograms of weight; even the slightest movement was difficult.

What annoyed Gu Yao even more was the noisy system in his head.

"The host's vital signs are stable. The cannon fodder system has been restarted. The mission is now 80% complete. Please keep up the good work, host!"

Gu Yao heard the sound but only wanted to hit someone. He wanted to cover his head with the blanket, but then he remembered that this thing was inside the brain of this body.

With a sigh, he could only continue lying in bed like a corpse.

An unhealthy body is really tiring...

Xiao Jiu stood guard beside Gu Yao, glancing towards the door as if sensing something. "Host, Shen Zhezhu is here."

Gu Yao sighed, putting away his listless expression and adopting a pained look. He propped himself up on his arms, two strands of hair falling on either side of his face, adding to his frail appearance.

The slightest movement aggravated this tattered, doll-like body, causing pain both inside and out.

As Shen Zhezhu walked to the door, he heard a heart-wrenching cough coming from inside. He took two steps forward, pushed the door open, and saw the person leaning against the headboard, pale-faced, hunched over, as if he was coughing up his internal organs.

He rushed forward, taking three steps at a time, and gently patted the young man's back. Warm spiritual energy flowed down his back into the broken body, clearing away the blocked and disordered spiritual energy.

Gu Yao felt the tearing sensation in his body gradually subside. He caught his breath and gratefully thanked the person in front of him.

He looked up and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Wow, this little rascal's got some tricks up his sleeve.

She even disguised herself.

Shen Zhezhu didn't say anything, but helped the person up and sat on the edge of the bed looking at Gu Yao.

Gu Yao calmed his breathing, turned his head and smiled at the person sitting on the edge of the bed, "Thank you for your help just now, young brother. May I ask who you are?"

Shen Zhezhu pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, and suppressed the expression in them. "It was His Majesty who sent me to take care of the Immortal Master."

Gu Yao was stunned when he heard the words "Your Excellency". His fingertips twitched and he crumpled the brocade quilt. He looked at the person in front of him as if he had a thousand words to ask, but his throat was choked.

"Warning! Warning! Host, please do not break character! Maintain the villainous cannon fodder persona!"

A flash of disgust crossed Gu Yao's eyes. He lowered his gaze dejectedly and sighed.

He'll dismantle this damn system sooner or later.

It's best not to let him know who's behind this, otherwise he'll definitely kill the person who invented it.

A flash of cold light crossed his pale eyes, but Gu Yao suppressed it again.

Since we can't ask directly, we can only try to find out indirectly.

The young man looked up, his expression tense, his fingers clenching into fists, his entire being on guard.

Where is he?

Shen Zhezhu paused in pouring the pills.

Both of them knew perfectly well who "he" was.

He handed the pills to Gu Yao and smiled gently, his smile as warm as a spring breeze. "His Majesty is currently discussing matters with the elders in the main hall. He must be very busy these next few days."

The person on the couch seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, their stiff back collapsing instantly, revealing a relieved smile. They asked somewhat nervously and uncertainly, "So, will you be taking care of me these next few days?"

Looking at that relaxed smile, Shen Zhezhu almost lost control of her pretense.

Does not seeing me make you this happy?

Master.

Shen Zhezhu rubbed her fingertips together, watching Gu Yao swallow the pill. His complexion improved considerably, and she felt a little relieved.

"I will take care of Master Gu for the next few days."

Gu Yao sensed the faint spiritual energy within his body and, looking at the pretentious person in front of him, genuinely gave him a friendly look and smiled.

"Then I'll be in trouble these next few days. May I ask how I should address you?"

Shen Zhezhu looked at Gu Yao's light eyes, her mind raced, and she said gratefully, "I am just a lowly physician in the palace. I am fortunate to have been protected by His Majesty and given the surname Shen. Immortal Master, you can just call me Physician Shen."

The boy's deep eyes were fixed on the young man's face, not missing a single expression.

Gu Yao did not disappoint. Upon hearing the surname Shen, he crumpled the brocade quilt in his hand even more, took a deep breath, suppressed the fear that he could not shake off, forced a bitter smile, and said in a trembling voice, "Dr. Shen."

Looking at the person who was even stuttering a bit when he spoke, Shen Zhezhu felt extremely bored.

Even though they already knew everything, they still couldn't help but test the waters.

Why are you so gentle to everyone else, but so mean to him?

It seems like all the malice was directed at him.

If you're going to push him into the abyss, why did you pull him out of the darkness in the first place?

Seeing that the person was already distracted, Shen Zhezhu felt extremely annoyed, but she had no choice but to patiently continue acting.

He didn't want the game to end so soon.

"Master Gu, I'll go order your dinner first."

Gu Yao snapped out of his reverie, turned his head to look out the window, and saw that the sun was already nearing its setting.

Only after being reminded by the person in front of me did I belatedly realize that I was hungry.

Even their stomachs, not giving their owners any face, protested with a loud "gurgling" sound, which was particularly noticeable in the quiet room where only the two of them were breathing.

Gu Yao's ears turned red, a little embarrassed.

He coughed lightly, turned his head to thank Shen Zhezhu, and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."

The boy's gaze fell on her rosy earlobes, and he thought that when she didn't use her sharp tongue, she was actually quite cute.

The frustration in his heart dissipated considerably, and a genuine, faint smile appeared on his face. "Then please wait a moment, Immortal Master."

Gu Yao nodded and looked up at the boy, his eyes meeting the boy's smiling gaze. The golden-red light gilded the boy's cheeks, giving them a warm yellow halo, like sunlight shining on a sunflower field.

It showed signs of prosperity and vitality.

This made Gu Yao's heart tremble.

I feel like the person in front of me is somewhat familiar.

It was as if he had returned to that day's apprenticeship ceremony, where someone was looking at him with the same intense gaze.

The boy walked up to him and asked in a trembling voice:

"Will the Immortal Lord accept me?"

Filled with indescribable excitement.

Later, he became his apprentice.

For the next two years, the boy looked at him with that same gaze.

Whenever he turned around, the boy's eyes were filled with starlight, as if all the stars in the sky had fallen into his eyes.

The stars were torn down, all for one person.

Gu Yao turned his head and gently pressed his hand against his pounding heart.

Hearing that sound, my heart pounded like thunder.

Looking at the boy's retreating figure, she seemed lost in thought, twirled her fingertips, and sighed softly.

No matter how much time has passed, I am still moved by that smile.
