Xia Ruize’s response was to directly reach out and cover Cheng Huaiqian’s mouth. Although he couldn’t cover up his overflowing laughter, at least he didn’t let him continue talking, and he didn’t let him turn around to see his shy and flushed face.

“My bloodline talent can absorb natural energy faster, and there will be overflow.” Gritting his teeth, Xia Ruize emphasized softly: “That’s all!”

Cheng Huaiqian’s response was a series of more pleasant laughter. He stretched out the tip of his tongue to lick Xia Ruize’s hand, and when Xia Ruize pulled back his hand as if he had been burned, his voice softly retorted as if dripping water:

“Little liar, if this was the case, why are you so shy? Why don’t you let me turn around? I feel that I need more energy in front of me than my back.”

While Xia Ruize was stunned, Cheng Huaiqian broke free from his restraints, and immediately turned around and hugged the person in his arms, with a happy expression, his eyes were in surprise, and he asked Xia Ruize over and over again:

“Is our relationship good? I will definitely find a way to let us spend more time together. I have never liked anyone before, I only like you alone. I have thought about it very clearly in the past two months. I like you, I like you very much, I want to be with you all the time, can we get along?”

Cheng Huaiqian held the person tightly and shook him gently, asking over and over again with joy.

Xia Ruize looked at him. The two of them really felt like couples on vacation on the beach. They only had shorts on their bodies. Besides, their limbs were intertwined and their skin was closed to each other. Xia Ruize could feel the satisfaction rising from the bottom of his heart. He could also feel Cheng Huaiqian’s full of joy and sincerity, but he just gritted his teeth and hardened his heart and didn’t give any response.

Cheng Huaiqian calmed down slowly, put his head against Xia Ruize’s head, quietly looked at Xia Ruize’s red and moist eyes, looked at each other for a moment, he suddenly laughed, the ice and snow were just melting, and the stars were shining, he did not continue to ask, but touched Xia Ruize’s head one by one with his hands and gently comforted him:

“No hurry, no hurry, I didn’t do well enough, I was too hasty, I apologize, don’t worry, I will do better, and I will prove it to you when we meet in the next world, okay? Don’t hide from me then, okay? Even if we can’t be lovers, we’re good friends and teammates.

You see, I have a bad temper. There will always be many conflicts when I cooperate with others. In the end, everything ends up unhappy. You are the only one who doesn’t dislike me. So, don’t abandon me in the future…”

Xia Ruize finally couldn’t hear what he said, and buried his face in Cheng Huaiqian’s shoulder.

Cheng Huaiqian didn’t push him anymore. He knew what Xia Ruize’s biggest concern was. He was hugged by Xia Ruize just now, but he was still a little too impulsive when he was excited.

In Cheng Huaiqian’s opinion, confession should be the last step after the feelings were in place, not the slogan shouted before the action, so he patiently weaved a fine net around Xia Ruize, let Xia Ruize gradually get used to his existence, get used to him getting close, and to prepare to pack up and take people away only when it was absolutely safe.

Unfortunately, Xia Ruize’s influence on him was too great, Xia Ruize’s rare initiative immediately disrupted Cheng Huaiqian’s plan, and said his confession in advance. Cheng Huaiqian didn’t regret it, just worried that Xia Ruize was on the cusp of bullying, so he kept comforting him gently.

The two hugged quietly, Cheng Huaiqian tried to find a topic to arouse Xia Ruize’s interest, and divert Xia Ruize’s attention.

During this period, there was always a small bridge connecting Xia Ruize and the beam of light. He absorbed energy faster and faster. At the same time, a large amount of energy rushed into his body in a short period of time, and some of it overflowed because the body could not bear it. Benefiting the nearest Cheng Huaiqian, Cheng Huaiqian absorbed energy more than four times faster.

Their three views were compatible and they could always chat together. When Cheng Huaiqian deliberately aroused Xia Ruize’s interest, Xia Ruize would always chat happily with him, and they wouldn´t be tired of being together until the time was gradually approaching the evening.

Xia Ruize keenly found that the brightness of the light beam in the sky gradually weakened with the passage of time, and the energy concentration in the air also decreased.

Cheng Huaiqian also found that the surrounding wild animals no longer focused on the beam of light as before, and began to be a little restless, moving their legs and flicking their tails more and more frequently.

“When night falls at nine o’clock in the evening, will this beam of light weaken greatly?”

Xia Ruize calculated the time until he first discovered that the brightness of the light beam had weakened, and the situation was not optimistic.

“To be on the safe side, we will withdraw in advance.”

Cheng Huaiqian’s sharp eyes swept across dozens of wild animals, and was shocked to find that some of the wild prey, who originally only focused on the beam of light, began to lose their attention, and some even noticed the two of them.

As it approached eight o’clock in the evening, the brightness of the light beam had weakened to less than half of the original, and the surrounding wild animals were making more and more noise.

Cheng Huaiqian took Xia Ruize’s hand decisively and walked out carefully.

The thick and huge tail of the cheetah lying on the side suddenly swung towards them. Cheng Huaiqian immediately calculated that the tail, which seemed to be pressing down on them, would eventually be thrown in front of their feet, which was more intimidating than attacking.

While thinking about it, Cheng Huaiqian pushed Xia Ruize back slightly, but he himself took a step forward and broke into the area where the cheetah’s tail should had landed.

Xia Ruize was shocked, and immediately reached out to grab his teammate subconsciously, and then saw the cheetah’s tail slightly changed direction, and finally threw it in front of Cheng Huaiqian’s feet.

Cheng Huaiqian turned back and smiled at Xia Ruize, affirming:

“I guess they haven’t attacked us. There should be some special ban rules in this area. it seems to be the case. We just need to stay away from them for a distance and return to the endless space before they attack violently.”

After Cheng Huaiqian finished speaking, he found that the expressions on his teammate’s faces was not happy. He was stunned for a moment, then took two steps back, and while pulling Xia Ruize’s hand, he gently comforted him with one hand:

“Don’t worry, you know, I usually don’t do anything I’m not sure about. I’ll definitely protect my little life, and I can’t bear to leave you alone.”

Xia Ruize’s round eyes instantly widened. He didn’t even understand why he was a little unhappy, but his teammate could understand, was he a roundworm in his stomach?

Thinking of this, Xia Ruize, who was inexplicably even more unhappy, glared at Cheng Huaiqian and walked out first.

This time, Cheng Huaiqian really couldn’t guess what his teammate was thinking. He couldn’t help laughing and walking two steps closer to his teammate. He asked in a low voice. He wanted to understand Xia Ruize’s thinking. He just wanted to know more about Xia Ruize.

In fact, as Cheng Huaiqian observed, the wild animals surrounding the beam of light didn’t seem willing to let these two guys who took the opportunity to enjoy the energy run away, but they were restricted by inexplicable reasons and would not really kill them.

They could only move their hoofs to suddenly step in front of them, or bow their heads and roar at them, etc., but Cheng Huaiqian, who saw through their bottom line, was unaffected and pulled Xia Ruize to quickly withdraw.

Wild animals could only reluctantly let them go away.

Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize did not know, but the wild animals surrounding the beam of light knew that the energy generated by this precious beam of light was the energy of “life”. Therefore, during the existence of the beam of light, there should be no “dead” energy in the affected area. Otherwise, the energy of the light beam would be mixed, which would affect the absorption of all wild animals.

Therefore, these behemoths could only watch the two little bugs leave safely, thinking in their hearts, let them run first, and when the light beam was completely dark, they only needed two steps to catch up with the two little bugs, and then eat them so that the energy the worms had absorbed throughout the day would eventually return to their stomachs.

Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian stopped a few hundred meters away from the wild animals.

It was obviously not as dense as the energy next to the beam of light, but in the event that wild animals suddenly attack them, this position would give them enough time to escape from this world.

Coupled with Xia Ruize’s talent, even if the distance was a little farther, he could still build a small bridge and absorb energy directly from the beam of light.

The time was approaching nine o’clock every minute and every second, the sky was getting darker and darker, and the light beam was getting darker and darker, and the wild animals around the light beam were becoming more and more restless, staring at other wild animals or at two humans, constantly threatening.

Cheng Huaiqian played with Xia Ruize’s hand, thinking that he would not be able to see his teammate for one to two months after this mission world ended, and he couldn’t control his emotions.

If there was no way to meet again in reality, even if Xia Ruize agreed to his confession, they were not even better than online dating. After all, online dating could still make video calls every day, but after they leave this task world, they would forget the name of the person they liked.

Xia Ruize was carefully feeling the energy transmitted from the small bridge, and clearly found that the energy was getting less and less. When suddenly there was no more energy from the small bridge at a certain moment, Xia Ruize immediately shouted: “Go!”

In a very short time before and after, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian returned to the endless space, and the three wild animals that were guarding the beam of light suddenly rushed towards the position where they were standing, but it was empty.

Cheetah’s big round eyes were full of doubts, what about the delicious snacks that he had been eyeing for a long time? Why did it suddenly disappear?

The snacks were gone, and the cheetah had to turn to other wild animals next to it.

At this time, the beam of light had completely disappeared, and under the gloomy sky, more than 20 wild animals that originally coexisted peacefully cluttered together.

Every terrifying wild animal here relied on the energy of the beam of light to promote growth. If it could eat the other party, it would get the energy contained in the other party’s body, which would make the beast very happy.

The beam of light only appeared one day a month. Except for the absolute peace in the black core area during this time, there were only battles at other times.

As soon as Xia Ruize opened his eyes, he had returned to the room in the Endless World. After a short recollection, the image and information of his teammate had been blurred. He sat for a while, wiped his face with his hand, and left the Endless World first.

When he opened his eyes again, Xia Ruize was still on the train going home. He was sitting by the window. The noisy carriage was the same as before, but he was no longer in the mood to be as excited as he was when he first got on the train because he wanted to go home.

Xia Ruize gained a lot in the third mission world. The biggest gain was actually the energy obtained from the beam of light in the final stage, allowing Xia Ruize to completely control his body.

Of course, the main mission and the extended mission added up to nearly 10,000 survival points, the fruits that increased physical attributes in the early stage and the rewards that added 3 points to all attributes, plus the various fruits that were still in his space now, proved that the harvest of the third mission world was gratifying.

But Xia Ruize’s mood was a little low. He didn’t bother to look back on his gains. What flashed in his mind were the unblurred memories of getting along with his teammate. Looking at the receding scenery outside the window, after being silent for a long time, Xia Ruize suddenly laughed at himself.

Look, it was very unrealistic to fall in love at this time, and it affected the state.

Then he closed his eyes and let himself fall asleep.

After a three-hour drive, the train arrived at the station, Xia Ruize’s hometown, Jiu’an City.

By the time he got off the bus, Xia Ruize’s mood had returned to normal, and he helped the young mother who was traveling alone with her child in the next seat to remove the luggage from the luggage rack.

The five- or six-year-old girl thanked Xia Ruize sweetly: “Thank you handsome little brother!”

Xia Ruize smiled back.

After walking out of the train station, Xia Ruize took a taxi and went home. After getting into the taxi, he called his mother and said with a smile that he wanted to give his family a big surprise, and a large express delivery was waiting for Xia’s father and mother to sign for it.

The mother, Fang Qingyue, heard that her son meant that he was going home suddenly, and was very surprised. She hurriedly sent Xia’s father, Xia Wenhao, to buy more vegetables and prepare a big meal for her son.

After more than half an hour, Xia Ruize finally returned to the familiar area where he grew up.

Their family had a large yard in the old town of Jiu’an city center. The small yard was originally a bungalow, but was later built into a three-story villa by the parents. Looking at the familiar home, Xia Ruize smiled, pushed open the courtyard door and walked into the room.

“Ouch, look who this is coming back, why is my little baby so handsome again!”

As soon as Fang Qingyue saw her son, she immediately stepped forward and hugged him happily. Xia Wenhao, who was wearing an apron and cooking together, also happily came over and patted hid son on the shoulder.

Xia Ruize was already taller than his father. The husband and wife were proud from the bottom of their hearts when they saw their son, who was outstanding in his studies from childhood to university, and who was an outstanding talent.

Today, after the New Year’s Day, Xia’s father and mother had not seen their son for more than half a year. They brought a table full of mother’s dinner to the table, and the family sat around the table eating and chatting.

“It’s not a festival, you’re on annual leave? You din’t tell us in advance when you come back suddenly, didn´t let us prepare well.”

Fang Qingyue didn’t eat much, and soon she was full, she sat and continued to watch the father and son eat, especially the son, who had a long appetite, so she was satisfied.

“I quit my job instead of taking annual leave. I feel a little tired from work, and I plan to go home and rest for a while. I have already contacted the outsourced small projects in advance, I can do it at home, and I can get a lot of money every month. I am ready to try it first, and if I can do it, stay home and become a freelancer.”

Fang’s mother’s cooking skills were the capital that Xia Ruize showed off to the friends around him from childhood to adulthood, and it was the best taste in memory, moved out of the long-prepared grounds.

Fang Qingyue touched her son’s head distressedly when she heard the words. She knew that his son had always been tough, but now he said that he was tired.

“Take a good rest when you are tired, and don’t do any outsourcing. There is no shortage of your meal at home. It’s good for you to accompany your parents at home.”

“Cough, a man is supposed to start a family and start a business, but if you don’t want to start a family, your career will be fooled. You should take it easy first, and when you want to do something in the future, your parents will definitely support it. If your parents give you money to open a small shop or something, you won’t starve to death.”

Xia Wenhao, who had been silently listening to the chat between mother and son, also expressed his opinion. The views of the couple were very consistent, the son being happy was the most important. Xia Ruize, who just graduated, wanted to work in a big city, they supported him. They also supported his son who wanted to go home and rest when he was tired.

Since they knew about their son’s sexual orientation, their family didn’t look forward to the third generation. Since the son will always be the youngest child in the family, it was up to him to do what he wanted.

Xia Ruize smiled happily, and got up to hug his mother and then his father. Since returning home, he had felt that a nerve that had been tense all this time had relaxed a little, and it was still the most comfortable to stay in the most familiar home.

After dinner, the family chatted lively for most of the day before going back to their rooms to rest. The first floor was the public area, the entire second floor belonged to Xia’s father and mother, and the entire third floor belonged to Xia Ruize’s space. There were bedrooms, a study, a game room, and an empty guest bedroom.

Xia Ruize measured the guest bedroom with a tape measure, and planned to convert the guest bedroom into a fitness room, and then exercise at home in the future.

Sleeping on the familiar bed, Xia Ruize soon fell asleep. After five days of missions and another day’s journey, he was not ready to enter the Endless World to practice for the time being. He was ready to rest.

Here Xia Ruize was immersed in a sweet dream, while Cheng Huaiqian was still busy there.

When he woke up from the back seat of the car, he directly asked the driver to divert back to the company, and then Cheng Huaiqian squatted in the back seat, seemingly closing his eyes and resting, but he was actually recalling everything that happened in the third mission world over and over again.

In the third mission world, since meeting his teammate, Cheng Huaiqian had been looking for opportunities to chat with his teammate. The content of the chat was not limited to the Endless World, but involved the real life of individuals.

Xia Ruize didn’t realize it himself, he had unknowingly talked about his experiences from childhood to adulthood, and also learned about Cheng Huaiqian’s experiences.

During the relaxed chat, many words were unintentionally spoken by Xia Ruize, Cheng Huaiqian just listened to it casually, and then continued to chat casually.

But now that Cheng Huaiqian returned to the real world, he was no longer casual. He desperately recalled the conversations he had with his teammates, and sure enough, he recalled some content that did not seem to involve Xia Ruize’s personal identity at all.

What interesting competitions did Xia Ruize participate in when he was a child, where did he travel, what happened on the way to school, what major he studied, etc., etc., any of this information alone could never correspond to an individual, but what if they overlapped? It was entirely possible to find common ground and lock down the target object into a small area.

Cheng Huaiqian went to the headquarters of Cheng’s Group in Magic city. There were already many computer experts waiting in the well-equipped computer room. According to Cheng Huaiqian’s information, he tried to filter out the overlapping parts from the massive personnel information.

This work was difficult and tedious, like looking for a needle in a haystack, but Cheng Huaiqian sat on the sidelines and watched, these information technology geniuses could only bury their heads in their efforts and quickly screen.

Some of the information involved an internal database, and Cheng Huaiqian contacted professionals to purchase search services at a high price.

The secretary heard that President Cheng returned to the company to work overtime again, and remembered that Cheng Huaiqian had previously told him that the latest news related to the game company would be reported to him first, so he had to go to Cheng Huaiqian with a pile of materials to be approved.

Cheng Huaiqian’s signature action suddenly stopped. The reason why he suddenly cared about his game company was because he wanted to find his teammate. He must have talked about this after meeting his teammate in the third mission world. Then he had no relevant memory at all now. Wasn’t it because the teammate was really related to several game companies he had contact with?

After this information was added to the filter conditions, the data comparison work had been pushed forward a big step.

Computer experts from multiple channels were busy until two o’clock in the morning, and each submitted a summary of materials to Cheng Huaiqian, which was the person they thought best met the conditions provided by Cheng Huaiqian after screening and investigation.

Cheng Huaiqian personally compared multiple materials, and finally compared three people with the highest probability based on the current screening conditions.

After listing all the information of the three people on the desk, Cheng Huaiqian swiped his fingers over it one by one. Because the fingers were too hard, a gravure was left on the paper material.

Standing by the floor-to-ceiling glass window of the office, looking at the white fish belly gradually lit up in the sky, Cheng Huaiqian calmly suppressed the anxiety in his heart, he was not in a hurry, even if the three were not, he already had the tracking talisman, he had another world opportunity to know more about teammate.

The sky was bright and the sun was just right. When Fang Qingyue came home from get off work at noon, she found that the house was silent. Her son was still sleeping, and with a smirk, she completely opened the curtains of his son’s room.

The window of Xia Ruize’s bedroom faced the largest Ninghe Park in the center of Jiu’an City. It was full of greenery and shade, so he didn’t have to worry about anyone looking in from the outside. Since the three-story villa was built at home, the curtains had been opened, it was the best way for Xia’s father and mother to wake up his snooze son.

Fang Qingyue hummed a song and walked around in the kitchen, happily busy preparing to feed her two pigs. Last night, Xia Ruize wrapped up so many dishes. Fang Qingyue was happy that her son ate a lot while and felt sorry for him. He must have not eaten well when he was out, so she had to prepare a larger portion for lunch today.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang outside the gate. Fang Qingyue looked out the window suspiciously. Through the garden, she could see a young man in a casual suit with a splendid temperament standing outside the gate, holding fruits and gifts in his hands, as if he was coming to the door for a visit.

A young person? Was it her son’s friend?
