Mini World Game Console-Chapter 649 - 650: Hello Casanova

Ren Suo looked into Gu Yueyan's eyes for three seconds and asked, "Where did you come from?"

"From my hometown. I took the high-speed train, and it took just half an hour to get here," Gu Yueyan said with a smile.

Ren Suo nodded. He immediately sat up, stretched with a groan, and said, "You came to my house without telling me first? How embarrassing for me. I'll go wash my face and brush my teeth right now..."

"No rush on that," Gu Yueyan said, pursing her lips with a smile. She lay on her side on the bed, showcasing her youthful, beautiful figure, and tightly grabbed Ren Suo's arm. "Mr. Suo, before you're fully awake, I want to ask you a few questions."

"You've spoken your mind!"

"So what if I did? It's not like your mind recovers quickly after you wake up anyway. I've verified this attribute of yours multiple times during those seven days," Gu Yueyan said. "Auntie just told me something very interesting..."

Ren Suo's heart tightened. "People have three urgent needs..."

"I locked the door. No one is leaving until we clear things up."

Gu Yueyan wrapped her arms around his waist and pushed him back onto the bed. Her sudden burst of Force was so great that Ren Suo could not resist at all. He fell hard onto the bed, and she pinned him down by the chest. She looked at Ren Suo with a very complex gaze. "I told you during our last call that it wouldn't be long before we saw each other again."

"But I didn't expect that just because I came a day late, you actually brought Sister Qiao all the way from Lianjiang back home to meet the parents..."

Mom, you really do tell everything, huh, Ren Suo couldn't help but inwardly critique.

But recalling his mother's threats from last night, Ren Suo understood.

Last night, his mother couldn't dissuade Qiao Muyi and was even counter-maneuvered by her, psychologically siding with Qiao Muyi. Now that his mother saw Gu Yueyan coming straight to him, she naturally embraced the mindset of 'saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-tiered pagoda,' confessing all of his 'sins' to persuade Gu Yueyan to turn back from the brink...

But his mother also held on to her principle: 'Your future partner is for you to choose.' She didn't directly use a phrase like 'My future daughter-in-law is set to be Yiyi' to discourage Gu Yueyan—or rather, his mother simply didn't want to be the villain. Her help for Ren Suo was limited, and for something like taking on the villain's role, she wouldn't clean up his mess.

It's all Ren Suo's fault, so why should she be the bad guy? Does being her own son make him that special?

His mother doesn't choose his wife; she's just the wife's porter.

"MEOW~"

The Black Cat also woke up. She immediately brightened upon seeing Gu Yueyan and scrambled into her arms to frolic.

Gu Yueyan looked at the Black Cat and inexplicably felt a sense of affinity arise within her. However, she had always had a soft spot for cute things, so she didn't think too much about it. She gently scratched the Black Cat's chin, making it so comfortable that the cat closed its eyes, wanting to continue sleeping.

While petting the Black Cat, Gu Yueyan asked Ren Suo, "So, what do you mean by that?"

"What, what do you mean?" Ren Suo feigned ignorance.

"You already brought Sister Qiao home to meet the parents..." Gu Yueyan said, looking down at the Black Cat without making eye contact with Ren Suo, and calmly inquired, "Does that mean that I... and Luna no longer have a chance?"

Ren Suo hadn't removed his 'Desire Detection' yet; he could hear Gu Yueyan's brief echo: Nervous.

"MEOW~?" The Black Cat turned her head to look at Ren Suo. She could understand human speech now and joined in questioning him.

Ren Suo scratched his head, wanting to sit up, but Gu Yueyan pushed him back down again.

Gu Yueyan's strength is really great!

And if you're going to hold me down, why put your hand on my neck?!

And Luna, why are you showing your claws too?!

Ren Suo smiled helplessly and said, "If the 'chance' you're talking about refers to whether I like you all... then you don't need it anymore. Because it's already happened."

Gu Yueyan was slightly taken aback, but she didn't get happy because of it. As the top student in her grade, she quickly saw through the narrative trickery in Ren Suo's words and pressed, "Then if what I mean by 'chance' is... is... is..."

Gu Yueyan was still not of legal marriage age and, after blushing for ages, finally found an appropriate way to phrase it, "...refers to me wanting to continue what we didn't finish on the sixth day of The Dark Side of the Moon?"

Ren Suo blinked. On the sixth day on The Dark Side of the Moon, my personality tag was 'Groom', he recalled. So, he immediately nodded. "Then you don't need an opportunity. If you're willing, you already have that right, and I will definitely continue that with you in the future..."

Ren Suo agreed so decisively that it finally made Gu Yueyan happy.

But it was impossible for Ren Suo to think he could fob Gu Yueyan off that easily. She immediately remembered something and continued to ask, "What about Sister Qiao then? What do you plan to do? Why did you still take her home to meet your parents?"

Ren Suo was immediately at a loss for words.

Just as Gu Yueyan's gaze became more and more menacing and the grip of her hand around Ren Suo's neck tightened, Ren Suo finally said in a soft voice, "If Qiao Muyi is willing, she also has that right..."

Gu Yueyan was stunned.

She looked at Ren Suo, dumbfounded. After three seconds, her expression finally shifted from blank to furious. Her delicate eyebrows shot up, her eyes widened fiercely, her lips pursed tightly. She stared at Ren Suo as if he were an alien.

Immediately after that, she grabbed the quilt, flung it over Ren Suo's head, then snatched his pillow away and, like playing whack-a-mole, slammed it down hard!

Gu Yueyan didn't speak, just kept hitting hard. Ren Suo didn't speak either, just lay there being hit.

After nearly thirty seconds, Gu Yueyan stopped, panting heavily. She lifted the quilt and yanked Ren Suo up, forcing him to look her in the eye.

Ren Suo looked at Gu Yueyan, her cheeks flushed and her eyes brimming with tears, so angry she nearly bit through her lower lip. He could only extend his left wrist. "Bite this, it'll feel better. Don't hold back. I'm quite confident in my own healing speed."

Gu Yueyan didn't hold back, biting into Ren Suo's left ring finger. Ren Suo froze. The pain from one's fingers connects straight to the heart! Based on his past miserable experiences, he knew he could endure pain on his wrist or elsewhere, but if his fingers were hurt, he would definitely scream in pain—how utterly embarrassing that would be.

However, Ren Suo had long known he was unlikely to meet a good end; even if he did, he'd first have to go through a Shura Field.

If you're wrong, you must admit it; if you're being bitten, you must stand tall. If you want to act upon a mistake and persist in it stubbornly, naturally, you have to accept beatings from all sides.

But even if it were Hell, Ren Suo would walk into it on his own two feet!

Even if there was an Abyss in front of him, as long as he had the unwavering Courage to keep going, his future would be boundless!

Recalling many inspirational quotes to strengthen his Courage, Ren Suo watched Gu Yueyan anxiously. She, with the fiercest expression, glared at Ren Suo, her ivory teeth rubbing against the skin of his finger.

After quite some time, Gu Yueyan finally left a small Mark on his ring finger. Grasping his left hand, she said, "I don't care; you have to save this finger for me."

Ren Suo swallowed hard, his heart trembling. Truly, one can know a person's face but not their heart! So, Gu Yueyan, you have a fetish for collecting fingers!

But I'm already thanking my lucky stars, Ren Suo thought. At least Gu Yueyan doesn't plan to collect True Human figurines or actual heads...

Ren Suo nodded gravely. "Alright. Whenever you want it, I'll give it to you. But I hope you can wait until I reach the fourth transformation or Fifth Tier. Maybe by then I'll have learned a spell for Limb Regeneration..."

Gu Yueyan was stunned for a moment. Her mind spun before realizing that Ren Suo was thinking of a gangster movie scene, whereas she was thinking of a love story; the two were on completely different wavelengths.

She said irritably, "In any case, you're not allowed to put anything belonging to someone else on this finger; it can only be adorned with my things. You promised, don't go back on your word."

Ren Suo blinked, only then realizing that Gu Yueyan had bitten the finger that traditionally wore the wedding Ring—the left ring finger.

He looked at Gu Yueyan, who sat cross-legged on the bed petting the Black Cat, her mouth shut and pouting. He tentatively asked, "Are you very angry?"

Gu Yueyan glared at him. "What do you think?"

"But didn't you agree in the dream to marry me along with Luna..." Ren Suo showed a shameless grin.

"That's because I knew Luna couldn't come back!"

The Black Cat: "MEOW?"

Gu Yueyan bit her lower lip, caressed the Black Cat's head, and said aggrievedly, "The reason I agreed on The Dark Side of the Moon was because Luna was so cute and adorable, and she was stronger than both of us. Most importantly, once we left The Dark Side of the Moon, we would never see her again... It was like playing house. Even if I agreed to marry you along with Luna, back in reality, I'd be the only one who could fulfill that promise..."

The mist in Gu Yueyan's eyes grew heavier as she stared at Ren Suo and said, "But in this world, who would be willing to share their lover with someone else? You are the only person I have ever loved, and of course, I hope you only have me!"

Ren Suo, however, was not at all moved. Instead, he focused on the Black Cat in Gu Yueyan's arms and asked, "What if... what if Luna really found me? Would you go back on your promise?"

Gu Yueyan looked thoughtfully at Ren Suo, then nodded heavily. "I would!"

Ren Suo was somewhat taken aback as he looked at Gu Yueyan, not having expected such an answer from her. In his eyes, Gu Yueyan was always the 'class president'—a role model who was strict and trustworthy, without any knack for scheming, a Lawful Good girl.

"Mr. Suo, do you know when Sister Ling started to like you?" Gu Yueyan suddenly asked.

Although he didn't know why Gu Yueyan brought this up, Ren Suo still honestly answered, "...Probably since the day of her Awakening?"

"Yes. Sister Ling encountered danger during her Awakening. You stayed by her side and helped her through the difficult times... Although Sister Ling, in my eyes, radiated an enviable confidence from head to toe at that time, she indeed wasn't very pretty. You were always finding excuses to support her financially back then. She had already taken a liking to you, and that incident was just the last straw..."

At this point, Gu Yueyan sighed. "Truly a flower stuck in cow dung."

"Four flowers..." Ren Suo quietly added.

"Back then, I always wanted to drive you away from Teacher Dong. You weren't worthy of Sister Ling," Gu Yueyan looked at Ren Suo and added, "I still think the same now."

"Do you remember that day I asked you to accompany me to Fragrance City under the pretense of Awakening? I actually wanted to take photos of us and send them to Sister Ling, to make her think you were flirting with a female student..."

Gu Yueyan took out her phone, tapped on it, and showed Ren Suo a photo: the scene where they were rowing a boat on Ailan Lake.

"I got the photo, but you really were flirting with a female student..." Gu Yueyan glanced at him. "When I fell into the lake, I was actually a little conscious... I knew you saved me, and I knew you gave me mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to save me..."

"It was then that I started to care about you. I didn't expect to be moved by such a romantic act of a hero saving a damsel. I never showed this photo to Sister Ling, not because I didn't want to drive you away, but because I couldn't face her with a clear conscience anymore..."

Gu Yueyan looked at Ren Suo and asked, "So, do you understand?"

Ren Suo, who had been quietly listening to Gu Yueyan's heartfelt confession, shook his head.

"I started to like you after Sister Ling did. I knew Sister Ling liked you when I developed feelings for you," Gu Yueyan said dejectedly. "In terms of timing, I started liking you later than Sister Ling; in terms of our relationship, Sister Ling treats me like a younger sister..."

"Although you always seemed half-asleep and never realized it, never establishing a relationship with Sister Ling, I know that I have, in fact, betrayed Sister Ling..."

Gu Yueyan's tone grew more resolute. "And I have no intention of backing down."

"Mr. Suo, I told you before that I'm not as well-behaved as you think. I can feel Jealousy towards my brother and resent my father. Now, I'm risking being disliked by Sister Ling to love you, so of course, I would break my promise to Luna to have you."

The Black Cat MEOWED, jumping out of Gu Yueyan's arms and landing on Ren Suo's shoulder.

Ren Suo quickly soothed the Black Cat. Things are indeed not so simple, he acknowledged inwardly.

Although he had anticipated this, now that even Gu Yueyan was acting this way, Ren Suo felt his future had been fragmented. He could either choose one of those pieces or be split into pieces himself (physically).

But there was some good news. Ren Suo petted the Black Cat and tentatively asked, "So... you won't leave me, right?"

Hearing this, Gu Yueyan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow with a slight smile. "What, are you scared? Are you afraid I'll leave you?"

"Yes."

Gu Yueyan asked, "What if I used that to threaten you?"

"I would plead with you to stay."

"But what if I refuse your pleas unless you agree to my conditions?"

Ren Suo shook his head. He bowed his head to gently stroke the Black Cat's spine, not answering. He managed to force a smile that tasted like bitter melon and extended his hand, saying, "Why don't you take a bite? Eat as much as you can."

"I'm not an Ogre!" Gu Yueyan pushed his hand away in annoyance. Looking at his pitiful face, she couldn't help but revert to her class president persona, saying righteously, "It's clear you're the one in the wrong, taking all the advantages, so how can you act as if you're the victim? Am I the one in the wrong? Is Sister Qiao wrong? Is Sister Ling wrong?"

The more she talked, the angrier Gu Yueyan got, and she ended up throwing the pillow at him. "Mr. Suo, you're so indecisive now, your love is indiscriminate, and you even hit on girls everywhere! You went to The Dark Side of the Moon and still managed to fall for another girl. You can't even be called an honest man! Besides having the virtue of good hygiene, how are you worthy of Sister Ling? How are you worthy of Sister Qiao? Tell me!"

Ren Suo, thoroughly scolded, clutched the Black Cat in his arms, looking at Gu Yueyan with a nervous and speechlessly embarrassed expression.

Seeing Gu Yueyan get out of bed to put on her shoes, Ren Suo cautiously approached her. He reached out with both hands to place them on her shoulders and, with an appeasing air, demonstrated his skilled massage techniques, softly asking, "So your answer is...?"

Gu Yueyan, so comfortable that she hummed, questioned back, "You answer me first. Are you worthy of Sister Ling? Worthy of Sister Qiao?"

"I am worthy," Ren Suo said, not at all embarrassed.

"No, you're not!" Gu Yueyan angrily shook off his hands. "You're not even worthy of Luna!"

The Black Cat: "MEOW MEOW MEOW~"

"You're only worthy of me!" Standing by the bed, Gu Yueyan earnestly appraised him with an appropriate price tag—lower than Qiao Muyi, lower than Dong Chengling, lower than Luna, equal to Gu Yueyan.

Ren Suo stared blankly at Gu Yueyan, causing her face to turn red. With Embarrassed Anger, she said, "Get up quickly! I was just supposed to wake you up for Auntie, and you ended up dragging it out for half an hour..."

"It was obviously you who locked the door and wouldn't let me out, okay?!" Ren Suo said with grief and indignation, quickly putting down the Black Cat and slipping into his slippers. "I've been wanting to go to the bathroom for ages..."

But as he stood up, the first thing he did was to hug Gu Yueyan. He sighed in relief as if a great burden had been lifted from his shoulders and said softly, "Thank you."

"Love is about possession, not letting go," Gu Yueyan gently hugged him back. "Help me braid my hair later."

When Gu Yueyan opened the door to Ren Suo's room, Ren's mother, who was just outside, stumbled and almost fell.

Seeing Gu Yueyan and Ren Suo, Ren's mother didn't blush at all. Instead, she gave Gu Yueyan two thumbs up. "Good job hitting him! Good job scolding him!" Then she walked away.

Now, Gu Yueyan truly felt a shame that left her nowhere to hide. She bit down hard on Ren Suo's arm. Ren Suo remained calm. It wasn't that our forces weren't trying; it's just that Mom is with the enemy.

***

Out on the balcony, Ren's father lounged lazily in a rocking chair, sunbathing and reading a comic. He saw Ren's mother come over and asked, "Is our son up yet?"

Ren's mother nodded, sat in the rocking chair opposite Ren's father, and said, "It was Little Yue Yan who woke him. She was at it for half an hour."

"Half an hour..." Ren's father fell into Silence. "Was our son... prepared?"

Ren's mother was slightly startled and scolded with a laugh, "What are you thinking? They were just chatting inside!"

"Oh, right, right. You told her about Miss Qiao's situation, didn't you?" Ren's father adjusted his glasses and said, "Sigh, I suppose our son will turn over a new leaf this time and become a devoted man, right?"

However, Ren's mother shook her head. "I doubt that."

"What? Miss Gu isn't angry?" Ren's father was slightly startled. "Our son's Supernatural Ability... it couldn't be related to this sort of thing, could it?"

"No, Little Yue Yan is very angry."

"Then why..."

"Old Ren," Ren's mother interrupted him, speaking seriously, "I suddenly quite like Little Yue Yan now. I'd like her to be our daughter-in-law too."

"But last night you were telling me if our son doesn't marry Qiao Muyi, you'd beat him to death..."

"Last night was last night, and now is now," she replied.

"You're so fickle," Ren's father said, looking at Ren's mother with disdain.
