Chapter 41: Morbid Eden

"Xiao Ling..."

A glint of obsession flashed in Aponya's eyes, forming a sharp contrast with her usual sacred demeanor.

A faint orchid fragrance emanated from her mouth as she softly called Ling's name.

It’s just that the meaning and emotion contained in this voice are somewhat thought-provoking.

"Sister Aponiya, what are you doing..." Ling finally came back to her senses, looked at the mess around her, and recalled what had just happened.

The feeling of being addicted to desire made him unable to forget it for a long time.

"Xiao Ling, let me help you put on your clothes." Aponiya pursed her lips, her eyes full of Ling's figure.

It is a surrender from body to soul...

Looking at Aponia who was so close to him, Ling swallowed his saliva. Although he didn't know why Aponia became like this, but... he subconsciously felt great.

“...Well, thank you for your help.” Ling replied.

When Aponya's fingertips brushed across Ling's skin, Ling shuddered unconsciously.

Her meticulous care made Ling enjoy it immensely.

Ling probably knew something. The black singularity in his brain seemed to have turned Sister Aponiya into someone who would only obey his orders.

He didn't know what it was, or even that it existed, or when it appeared in his spiritual world.

Looking at the pious Aponiya in front of him, Ling's face was full of confusion.

"Xiao Ling, what's wrong?" Aponiya tilted her head, trying to help Ling solve her problem.

"Um, Sister Aponiya, I... didn't mean it." Ling sincerely apologized to Aponiya.

Aponia still looked at Ling with some confusion, as if curious why Ling apologized to her.

"Sister Aponya, let me try and see if I can help you return to your original appearance."

If it is something that exists in my mind, then I should be able to control it, right?

Although he enjoyed the feeling, Ling still chose to try to liberate Aponia.

Maybe it was just because he felt he shouldn't have done that.

Aponiya seemed to still not understand Ling's meaning, but she did not resist at all. She just stared at him with that obsessed look.

Ling seemed to have become the god in her heart...

Ling Qing exhaled, relaxed her mind, placed her hands on Aponia's head, and entered her spiritual world.

This was the ability Ling had suddenly acquired just now. During the Pokémon battle not long ago, a warm current entered his body, and he found that he seemed to have mastered this power.

Aponia's spiritual world is very vast, yet filled with darkness.

Ling tried to mobilize the black singularity in his spiritual world and began to slowly absorb this dark aura.

Fortunately, nothing went wrong, and the black singularity could indeed be controlled by him.

As the dark aura was gradually absorbed back into Ling's body, Aponia's spiritual world slowly returned to its original state.

It was a golden world, exuding a sacred and compassionate atmosphere.

Outside, Aponya's eyes gradually regained clarity. Recalling what had just happened, a touching blush appeared on her face.

She knew that this was definitely not Xiao Ling's intention, otherwise Xiao Ling would not have helped her recover.

Due to the long period of delicate operation, Ling's brain began to feel dizzy, and then he fell straight backwards.

Aponya hurriedly caught him and carefully helped him to the bed.

Looking at that flawless face, Abonnie couldn't help but recall the scene just now, and the feather in front of him seemed to become "delicious" again.

Aponya suddenly woke up and shook her head hurriedly. Why did she have such thoughts? Was it because the influence had not completely disappeared?

More importantly, how will she face Eden in the future...

Aponia stood up, cleaned up the mess around him, and then walked outside.

Eden and Alicia seemed to have just returned from shopping, and the three of them happened to meet.

"Eden..." Aponia's tone was filled with panic.

"Hmm... Why do I feel like you, Aponya... seem to have done something bad secretly?" Ellie noticed something and asked in a slightly puzzled tone.

"..." Aponya tried hard to remain calm.

"Okay, Ellie, I believe Aponya is not that kind of person." Eden immediately tried to smooth things over.

"Of course I believe Aponya too! I was just joking~?" Ellie said without hesitation.

Aponya finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I wonder how my brother is doing? Is there any possibility of recovery?" Eden asked softly, asking about what she was most concerned about at the moment.

"I'm sorry, Eden. I explored Xiao Ling's spiritual world. It's very clean, as clean as a newborn baby...which means there is basically no possibility for Xiao Ling to recover." Aponya said apologetically.

A hint of bitterness flashed in Eden's eyes, but he still managed a smile.

"It's okay, Aponya. I've already prepared myself mentally. It's fine this way... At least Xiao Ling is still by my side."

Hearing this, Aponya and Ellie looked at each other and saw some anxiety in each other's eyes.

Eden is planning to keep Ling under house arrest...

But isn't this somewhat unfair to him?

Ever since Xiao Ling came back to life, she has never left this place...

Eden's desire to protect Xiao Ling has begun to become pathological.

"Eden, when I was exploring Xiao Ling's spiritual world just now, I found that he was very eager to see the outside world... and he wanted to know what kind of person he was in the past." Aponiya said to Eden.

Eden lowered his head, looking thoughtful.

Aponia was not lying about this. Everything about Ling here was carefully arranged by Eden. Although the house was big, it was indeed a little small compared to the vast world.

Moreover, he has a good understanding of the situation of his family members, except for himself...

He knew nothing about his past self. He was curious about why he lost his memory, his previous job, and what kind of person he was.

"If you keep imprisoning him in this cage called 'home', Xiao Ling's mental health will easily deteriorate," Aponiya consoled.

"But..." Eden obviously still had some concerns.

"Eden, haven't you already used your resources to erase any news about that girl? And the Fire Moth will also block any news about her. After all, she is..."

Ellie added fuel to the fire, which made Eden feel a little relieved.

"Let me think about it..."

Eden walked silently towards Ling's room.

She didn't want to take any risks. If she lost her brother again, she would go crazy.

Chapter 42 Business Trip

Ling looked around, everything was so new and strange.

Eden followed closely beside him, wearing a pair of sunglasses and a hat to hide his appearance.

After all, Eden is a world-class superstar, so he should be a little more cautious when traveling.

At Eden's request, Ling also simply covered it with a mask.

After disappearing for a long time, Ling's appearance seems to have changed a little bit...

He looks more handsome, and has a weird appearance.

But the aura he exuded was very pure, like that of a newborn baby.

The black eyes were as clear as black gemstones without any impurities.

Although both of them tried to cover it up, their fan base was really large.

"Um...Excuse me, are you Ling?"

A girl walked forward nervously and asked.

Although there was a question in his words, there was also a sense of certainty in them.

"Do you know me?" Ling blinked.

"Really...um, please give me an autograph!" The girl immediately turned into a little fan girl and asked Ling for an autograph.

"Signature?" Ling didn't quite understand what the other party meant, or why the other party wanted his signature.

But he did not refuse. Instead, he took the pen from the girl and prepared to write his name on the white paper.

"Wait, please change the paper." Eden pushed the white paper away.

"Huh? Oh, sorry, I was so excited that I forgot..."

The girl reacted and apologized quickly. Generally speaking, it is very impolite to ask others to sign on a blank piece of paper. After all, no one knows what you will do with this blank piece of paper.

But she searched through her packages and couldn't find the right paper.

"Then please sign it on me!"

"?" Ling was a little confused. Is his signature some very precious item?

Eden gently held her forehead. She wanted to drive the other person away, but she was afraid that Xiaoling's reputation would be tarnished again.

The girl stretched out her arm, and Ling wrote his name on her arm.

"Thank you!" The girl was overjoyed. When she wanted to ask for another photo, she found that some people around her had already started paying attention to her.

"Sorry, I won't bother you anymore. Thank you so much! I will continue to be your fan!"

With that, the girl ran away screaming.

He was still mumbling something about never washing his hands again...

Eden pulled Ling away quickly and came to a cafe.

"Sister, was I a very famous person before? Like you?" Ling asked doubtfully.

Eden thought about it, nodded, and then shook his head.

"Xiao Ling was indeed very famous in the past, but she is a little different from my sister. Xiao Ling is a representative of the fashion field." Eden explained.

More than a year has passed since the incident involving A Quan. With the joint efforts of Eden and the Fire Moth, news about A Quan has been almost covered up.

Because Ling hadn't appeared in public for a long time, the information he left on the Internet also stopped a year ago.

"It turns out I was so powerful before..." Ling scratched his head.

"But, Xiao Ling, I don't want you to continue to develop in the entertainment industry. Sister will support you for the rest of your life, okay?" There was a hint of pleading in Eden's eyes.

"Yeah." Ling nodded without hesitation.

"Hmm? Xiao Ling, don't you want to ask why?" Eden looked at Ling curiously.

"If it was my sister, she must have said that for my own good." Ling answered seriously.

"..."

"Sister, why are you blushing?" Ling looked at the blush on Eden's face, a little confused.

"Sister, I'm fine. It's just a bit stuffy here." Eden explained immediately.

"Then let's go out for a walk." Ling suggested.

"it is good."

Soon, Ling began to adapt to normal life.

Of course, there are no other requirements except wearing a mask when going out.
