Quick Transmigration: My Host's Darling Little Darling

When Zhou Yu woke up, he was in his rented room on his bed. Sunlight streamed in through the cheap curtains, and he found it a bit too bright.

I rubbed my eyes habitually and found a necklace in my hand, with a delicately patterned jade ring hanging from the silver chain.

Thinking about what happened last night, Zhou Yu put on the necklace, then washed up, ate, and rushed to work.

Zhou Yu noticed that it was quite quiet around him this morning, whereas before he would have one or two little devils making noise in his ear every day while he was working.

Without the troublesome ghosts, Zhou Yu was happy to have some peace and quiet.

When Zhou Yu got home that evening, he was cooking for himself when, in a flash, the King of Hell appeared right in front of him. He was so startled that he almost dropped the spatula, and Sheng Yuan had to steady him to keep him from falling.

"King Yama... King Yama, what brings you here?" Zhou Yu looked up slightly and saw the tall King Yama in front of him, and nervously swallowed.

“The Ghost King has appeared in the next city,” Sheng Yuan explained. “I can’t stray too far from the necklace; we need to get there as soon as possible.”

“Okay, I’ll go buy the plane tickets.” Zhou Yu nodded.

"It won't take much time, you should eat first," Sheng Yuan said.

Zhou Yu continued cooking, while Sheng Yuan observed the surroundings. This small space included a bed in the bedroom, a clothes rack, a sofa in the living room, a simple bathroom, and a kitchen on a very small balcony.

Sheng Yuan could measure the entire space in just a few steps; it was so cramped that it was difficult to maneuver freely.

Zhou Yu never expected that the King of Hell would come to his house. His house was small and messy, and he felt a little embarrassed.

When Zhou Yu brought out the food, he found that the King of Hell was asleep on the sofa.

He sat upright on the sofa, arms crossed, eyes closed. The room was lit, and Zhou Yu could clearly see the King of Hell's attire, which seemed completely out of place in the room.

The King of Hell's brocade robe was exquisitely crafted, with gold and silver threads, colorful gauze, and delicate, silky fabric. Zhou Yu was worried that the King of Hell might be uncomfortable while sleeping, but he couldn't move this big guy, so he carefully helped the King of Hell lie down on his small sofa. Seeing that the King of Hell hadn't woken up, Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief, then took a blanket and covered the King of Hell with it, although he didn't know if the King of Hell would feel cold.

However, he could feel the temperature when he touched Yama, unlike the icy hand from last night.

Zhou Yu sat on the carpet in front of the sofa, gazing at the sleeping Yama.

He remembered his master saying that the fourth Yama King was the quietest of the four Yama Kings, and he did indeed look quite quiet; he was a sleepy Yama King.

Zhou Yu looked at his face; it was truly handsome. He wished he were human.

[Ding! Target's affection level: 35%]

Realizing what he was thinking, Zhou Yu quickly shook his head. What was he thinking? He actually dared to covet the King of Hell! He was simply courting death.

At this moment, Sheng Yuan opened his eyes, and Zhou Yu and he made eye contact.

Zhou Yu was taken aback, then quickly turned his head away to avoid eye contact.

The atmosphere seemed a bit awkward. Should he say something?

"Thank you," Sheng Yuan said, sitting up.

"Huh?" Zhou Yu turned his head and realized, "You're welcome. I'm rather poor, and my home is simple. I'll trouble you to bear with me, King Yama."

"Having a house is already quite an achievement, so there's no question of taking on any responsibility." Sheng Yuan added, "In the human world, for the sake of convenience and legitimacy, you don't mind me using your brother's identity, do you?"

“I don’t mind.” Zhou Yu shook his head: “I’m an orphan, I don’t have an older brother.”

"Won't it be available later?"

Sheng Yuan's gentle yet magnetic voice warmed Zhou Yu's heart.

Zhou Yu was momentarily at a loss for words. "Then...would you like to eat?"

Sheng Yuan looked at the food on the coffee table. It was obvious that the bowls and chopsticks were for two people, so he nodded.

Sheng Yuan thought it would be better for him to change his clothes first. With that thought, Sheng Yuan changed his clothes in a wave of his hand, wearing a pullover hoodie and casual pants. The wrinkles on his face and the long hair on his head were gone. He had neat black short hair and looked like a male college student.

Zhou Yu was initially surprised, but then he realized that this was the King of Hell, and it made perfect sense.

That's great, that way he won't have to pay for another person's bathwater, since water costs money too.

"My cooking skills aren't very good. If you don't like it, I can order you some takeout later." It's true that Zhou Yu's cooking skills aren't good, and he hasn't practiced at all. Anyway, he's just eating by himself, so he's fine as long as he's full.

“No need,” Sheng Yuan told him. “I’m just testing a human body this time. I won’t be using a human body most of the time, so there’s no need to worry too much about my presence.”

"Oh." Zhou Yu nodded and ate his meal in silence.

The King of Hell's meaning was clear; Zhou Yu thought about it and realized that this way he wouldn't have to spend any extra money.

Even a Yama with a head full of jewels is someone he can't afford to support.

After taking leave and buying his plane ticket, Zhou Yu washed up and went to bed.

At this point, Sheng Yuan had already left through the necklace.

The next morning, Zhou Yu packed his luggage and flew to the neighboring city.

Sheng Yuan didn't tell him exactly where it was, so he wandered around the airport somewhat confused.

Suddenly someone patted him on the back. Zhou Yu turned around and saw his King Yama, still dressed as he was last night.

"Brother Yan... good morning!" Zhou Yu didn't know what to say, so he smiled awkwardly.

"Good morning," Sheng Yuan handed the breakfast to Zhou Yu. "You didn't have breakfast this morning, so have some first. I've booked a car and a hotel."

Zhou Yu nodded.

"Brother, where did you get the money?" Even the King of Hell doesn't have an ID card here.

“I still have some gold and jewelry,” Shengyuan explained to him.

Zhou Yu understood, and Sheng Yuan naturally took Zhou Yu's luggage, letting him eat breakfast in peace.

Zhou Yu thought to himself, "This King Yama, oh no, now I mean his brother, has a really good temper."

This was the most expensive breakfast Zhou Yu had ever had. He recognized the brand; the food there was always incredibly expensive. But there's a reason for the high price. Zhou Yu thought it was delicious.

……

As night fell, the door to her home opened, and Li Jinyuan returned to her former home with her boyfriend, looking exhausted.

Why in the past?

They had a fight a few days ago, and her boyfriend Chen Jin has never come back.

They broke up. Chen Jin told her himself that he was going to marry the daughter of the Fu Group.

Five years of relationship ended so easily, and her heart was breaking.

“Hello…” Li Jinyuan received a call from Wang Chen, Chen Jin’s good friend.

Hearing his sister-in-law's tearful voice and downcast eyes, Wang Chen felt a pang of reluctance to speak.

"Is there something you need on the phone?" Li Jinyuan asked when she heard no response from the other end.

"Sister-in-law, I heard that Brother Jin's new game has plagiarism issues, is that true?"

Li Jinyuan paused for a moment, then replied, "I don't know. We've broken up, and we're not in contact anymore."

"I'm sorry," Wang Chen said, feeling guilty.

"I'm hanging up." Li Jinyuan hung up the phone, tears streaming down her face.

He actually felt that Brother Jin had been acting strangely lately, but he wasn't quite sure yet.
