Chapter 064: The Sugar Daddy Is Innocent Yet Fierce

In the previous world, after accompanying his lover until he passed away peacefully of old age, Chen Tian withdrew from the minor world.

He originally intended to peel away the residual taint from Bai Su’s soul after leaving the world, just as he had done before. However, before he could even watch his lover’s soul detach from his body, he was directly transported into the system space.

Lying on the ground, Chen Tian looked at the pure white space around him. His heart instantly tightened, thinking something major had happened. He hurriedly stood up, only to discover a very familiar figure standing not far away.

“Xiao Bai!”

Chen Tian called out in pleasant surprise and ran over eagerly. Just as he was about to embrace his lover, Bai Su took a step back and used a hand gesture to stop him.

“What’s wrong?” Chen Tian looked at Bai Su with concern.

“We are currently in a soul state; you cannot touch me directly. There are still parts of my soul tainted by the foul energy. This energy acts like a virus, wanting to scatter and devour everything around it, but I am forcibly suppressing it. If you hug me directly, it will attempt to infect you as well.”

Bai Su spoke helplessly, looking at Chen Tian.

Noticing his sweetheart’s pale face and exceedingly weak state, Chen Tian felt a surge of bitterness in his heart.

He recalled how Bai Su had plunged directly into the minor worlds to protect himself, with no time to say anything. Even in the previous worlds, they hadn’t been able to linger.

Now that they had finally appeared in the system space and could speak to each other, Chen Tian was naturally emotional.

“I’m sorry, it’s all because I was too useless that you got hurt!”

Chen Tian stared fixedly at his lover. He had a thousand words in his heart, but they were ultimately overshadowed by deep guilt.

Hearing this, Bai Su shook his head vigorously. “This is not your fault. I did what I had to do. Besides, haven’t you been following me and taking care of me through all these worlds?”

Hearing this, Chen Tian thought back to the three minor worlds they had experienced. Although he had tried hard to analyze the taint’s influence on his lover, unexpected situations always arose. Believing they were all his own mistakes, he still felt immense self-reproach.

“But I did a terrible job. Xiao Bai, I’m too stupid, aren’t I? Even though I was very careful, I still made you misunderstand and feel sad. I clearly didn’t want you to suffer the slightest bit of harm; I wanted you to be happy all the time. But I seem completely unable to do as well as you do. It’s all because I’m useless!”

Chen Tian was engulfed by a wave of despondency, which made Bai Su’s heart ache terribly.

He understood Chen Tian too well. Having experienced so many worlds—if the time in the minor worlds was added up, it amounted to countless years—how could Chen Tian possibly be stupid? He simply trusted him too much.

Whenever his lover faced him, it was always different from how he treated others. He refused to calculate their relationship, carrying a certain undisguisable clumsiness, just like when they first met.

This man was straightforward. Even if rejected or hurt, he refused to let go of his feelings for him. He had laid his chest bare, genuinely using pure sincerity to earn their destiny together.

For millions of years, Chen Tian had never changed. This was exactly what Bai Su considered his most precious and endearing quality.

“Darling, you’ve already done very well!”

Bai Su reached out, tracing his sweetheart’s features through the air, and said gently, “It’s because you understand me. You know all my changes are due to the taint’s influence. So the moment you can’t sense my soul fluctuating from the taint, you feel at ease.

Actually, I am very happy. In these past few worlds, I have been able to feel your love and trust for me.

We’ve gone through so much together. Do you remember when you erased your memories and entered the minor worlds before?

Back then, I followed you from world to world, just like you are following me now. Back then, my greatest hope was that you would believe in our love and no longer feel insecure or sad.

Now I know, I truly achieved it!”

“In these past few worlds, you never put up your guard against me. You believed in me so firmly. Doesn’t that prove that everything I did before was meaningful?

Being able to give you peace of mind, to make you trust our love from the bottom of your heart—I am truly very happy!”

Hearing Bai Su say this, Chen Tian’s expression softened considerably. His Xiao Bai was always so gentle. How could he possibly hurt him? Even tainted by foul energy, he was still his lover! He truly had no way to guard against him!

Reaching out and channeling his energy, Chen Tian wanted to peel away a portion of the taint on Bai Su’s soul, just as he had done in the previous minor worlds. But he discovered it had absolutely no effect.

Seeing this, Chen Tian grew anxious and hurriedly looked at Bai Su. But he saw Bai Su give him a comforting smile, as if he had expected this all along.

“Just as I thought. Darling, don’t worry, I am indeed getting better. If it truly had no effect, I wouldn’t be able to appear here at all.

It’s just that… it’s like removing a tumor. The most superficial, outermost layers are always the easiest to remove, but what’s hidden deep inside isn’t so simple.

But don’t worry. For the upcoming worlds, as long as I properly absorb the luck energy fed back by the minor worlds, I will slowly be able to force this residual foul energy outwards myself, or even peel it off directly. This will require your help!”

Hearing this, Chen Tian nodded vigorously. “I understand. I will definitely guard you well and won’t let you get hurt again.”

“I believe you,” Bai Su responded with trust. Recalling the situations in the past few worlds, he said to Chen Tian, “I think I should be able to help a bit now too.

You know that because that energy merged into my soul and became a part of me, unless there is a violent fluctuation, you often can’t sense it. It’s very difficult to tell whether my mind is being influenced or manipulated.

You should have also realized that my deepest obsession is my feelings for you. So sometimes, before I do certain things, you might be able to anticipate them.

My soul has been repaired a bit in these past few worlds, and I haven’t been doing nothing. Just now, I made some modifications to 009, allowing him to perceive the special fluctuations of the taint on my soul much more clearly. The system is least affected by the world’s rules. With his help, you will be able to understand my condition much better.”

“That’s truly wonderful!” Chen Tian felt this was fantastic news. This way, he could soothe his lover perfectly and reduce the chances of him acting out.

Seeing Chen Tian’s expression, Bai Su could guess his thoughts, and his heart softened even more.

“I didn’t bring you to the system space just to talk about these things.

Chen Tian, I missed you so much.

Even though we were always together in the minor worlds, I still want to say it: I missed you so much!”

His sweetheart’s eyes were brimming with undisguisable deep affection. Chen Tian’s mind swayed. He leaned in a bit closer and said, unable to hold back, “Baby, I want to kiss you. Can you let me kiss you? Just one quick kiss shouldn’t get me infected that easily, right? I’ll be fine.”

Looking at Chen Tian’s dark, intense eyes, Bai Su was also drawn in. He still remembered how the man’s lips felt when kissing. It was very comfortable; a light kiss even brought a refreshing sensation.

“I’m sorry, I really can’t. We are both in our soul states. On one hand, you might get hurt. Furthermore, when the energy inside me is triggered to infect you, I will also become much weaker.”

Hearing that it would harm Bai Su, Chen Tian immediately took a step back, all romantic thoughts vanishing instantly.

When it came to his lover’s body, Chen Tian didn’t dare act rashly in the slightest.

Seeing Chen Tian’s reaction, Bai Su couldn’t hide his smile. He hooked a finger at him and said, “Darling, after all, I’ve followed you through so many worlds before. Perhaps I can give you some experience. Sometimes, blind appeasement is useless; doing the exact opposite might be better.”

Saying this, Bai Su leaned close to Chen Tian and whispered a few sentences into his ear.

The more Chen Tian heard, the brighter his eyes grew. When Bai Su finished, Chen Tian looked up at his blushing lover and couldn’t help but swallow hard.

“Can I really do that? If I do that, you won’t have your memories in the minor world. Won’t it hurt you?”

Hearing Chen Tian’s words, Bai Su smiled gently. He knew how tenderly his lover treated him, even acting somewhat overly cautious at times.

Therefore, with his memories intact, Chen Tian would never willingly initiate any manipulative routines. At most, he would just playfully bicker and show off how good he was.

But clearly, without a strong dose of medicine, it wouldn’t be effective for his current condition.

“It won’t,” Bai Su said. “Didn’t I treat you like that in the minor worlds before? Did you ever get angry over it?”

Seeing his sweetheart’s eager look, Chen Tian hurriedly shook his head. “Of course not! Knowing you were willing to spend so much thought on me, I couldn’t be happier!”

Chen Tian tried hard to express his feelings. Noticing the smile in his lover’s eyes, he finally realized the purpose behind Bai Su’s question, and his heart felt relieved.

“If you wouldn’t be angry, then of course I won’t be either. Even if there are some twists and turns along the way, they will all be sweet and beautiful memories for us. It will just be a bit hard on you!”

Bai Su’s voice was a bit soft. Hearing it, Chen Tian felt he would agree to absolutely anything he said.

The two gazed at each other, their eyes full of longing. However, considering Bai Su’s condition, he couldn’t stay in the system space for too long. Chen Tian could only suppress his reluctance and let him leave.

Immediately after, he and 009 also departed for the next world.

Opening his eyes once again, Chen Tian felt a wave of intense dizziness; his hands and feet were out of his control. The scenery before him was moving, and he could sense that someone was supporting him by the arms, dragging him forward.

He let out a burp and smelled the heavy stench of alcohol. This confirmed it for Chen Tian: his current replicated body was definitely dead drunk.

He immediately had 009 eliminate more than half the alcohol in his system, restoring his conscious clarity. But to an outsider, his face still looked flushed red, and he reeked of alcohol.

Turning his head to look at the man supporting him—a man with a pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks—Chen Tian quickly flipped through the original host’s memories. He learned that this person was called “Brother Li” and was currently the original host’s so-called manager.

The surrounding environment looked like a high-end hotel. Then, he was brought by the man into a completely empty room.

After a brief read of the memories, Chen Tian knew that the “Brother Li” beside him was no good person. He habitually acted as a pimp, selling out the artists under him.

Seeing the excited look on the man’s face as he reached out to unbutton Chen Tian’s shirt, he didn’t even need to think to know this was nothing good.

Looking at that face made Chen Tian’s stomach churn. Without holding back, he simply turned his head and threw up all over the man beside him.

“F*ck!”

Seeing this, Brother Li jumped up instantly. Cursing loudly, he completely ignored Chen Tian and sprinted madly toward the bathroom inside the room.

Taking advantage of this gap, Chen Tian had 009 transmit the plot of this minor world into his mind.
