I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 708: 13.9 - Missed Star - Long Xie! Youʼre a bastard!

Long Xieʼs words left Ye Qiuji speechless and stunned. The words of his beloved keep echoing near his ears as if it was an illusion yet it was reality itself. Ye Qiuji stared at his sweetheart in disbelief when he heard his words. To him the words his lover said signify that Long Xie didnʼt believe him with his whole heart that he, Ye Qiuji, loves him, Long Xie.

Ye Qiuji laughed when he heard that, but anyone could hear the grief and disbelief. His laughter stunned the two inside the room, as they could feel his immense sorrow and agony within Ye Qiujiʼs laughter.

Instead of saying he is chuckling, it is more accurate to say that he is mourning instead. Thatʼs the only thing they could feel when he heard his laughter.

Ye Qiuji hysterically spoke:

”Hahaha~ Long Xie. You are a bastard! You are a Jerk!”

”Among the both of us, who was the one to keep secrets about something that threatens their own life!? Am I supposed to wait for subordinates to come to me and say that something irreversible happened to you!?”

”You told me you love me! You say you trust me! Trust me? Hahaha~ you canʼt even say that youʼre undergoing a life-threatening treatment to me and you say you trust me!”

”You call me cruel!? You fucking dare call me cruel!?”

”Did you call me cruel just because Iʼve dared to confront you once!? Did you think I didnʼt know that was inside your head when you questioned me of my cruelty?”

”I know what runs through your head when you ask that! You thought that I am looking down on you for your original C- Physique. Correct right?”

Long Xie was stunned when Ye Qiuji asked him if that question about his original physique was asked. His silence gave Ye Qiuji an answer instead. Long Xieʼs silence technically means yes. Ye Qiuji watched him lower his head, not meaning his gaze at all.

Eyes reddening as he held back his tears, ”I will look down on you because of your original C- Physique? Heh~ Surnamed Long who gave you the right to question my love for you!?” yelled Ye Qiuji.

Just as Long Xie wanted to retort that he never looked down on Ye Qiujiʼs love that he hurriedly raises his head to look at Ye Qiujiʼs face only to be surprised at the sight of his lover looking at him with his face filled with immense sorrow and sadness.

He could see tears strolling down endlessly from those pairs of crimson eyes that matched his. Endless tears cascaded out, Long Xieʼs thoughts bound in chaos. His heart aching tinged with sorrow upon seeing his sweetheartʼs tears.

Ye Qiuji said, ”Forget it. It seems my worry is needless, and my love is questioned upon.”

Ye Qiuji stood up preparing to leave but Long Xie hurriedly followed and hugged Ye Qiuji from behind the latter didnʼt even struggle, and Long Xie could only feel the warm tears falling on his armʼs skin and his loveʼs body trembling in his embrace. Long Xie could no longer take back the words he said and could only hug his lover as he didnʼt know what he could say to erase the hurtful words he just said that probed his loverʼs heart. After all, what he questioned is not only Ye Qiujiʼs loyalty but also his love for him.

”Qiuʼer donʼt go. Iʼm sorry… so sorry… hush! Please donʼt cry, Qiuʼer…” whispered Long Xie to Ye Qiuji but the sobbing sounds of his lover just got louder as he even saw Ye Qiuji covering his face with both his hands, repetitively piercing his heart with regret and guilt.

As if stealing his last hint of courage, Ye Qiuji forcibly removed the arms wrapped around him and escaped those arms that used to give him a sense of security which now only cause him unbearable pain and self-doubt.

When Long Xie felt his loverʼs palms wet with tears slightly trembling as he struggled to force open his arm wrapped around him, Long Xie could only let him go.

After forcibly separating himself from Long Xie, Ye Qiuji created a short distance between them. Itʼs only a palm size distance but it felt more to both of them.

Ye Qiuji faced Long Xie with his back and wiped his tears on his sleeves. ”I... I donʼt… want to… see you for a while… I wanted to be… alone for a short time. Your next… treatment seems to be scheduled… two days from today. You should focus on that first… when both our minds clear then… letʼs see if… we have time to meet.” He said before taking his leave without looking back.

Long Xie looked at his departing figure without blinking. He wanted to stop him, but he knew that he didnʼt have the right. After this conversation, Long Xie realized that Ye Qiuji was not questioning him for hiding the fact that he is originally just a C Class inborn physique.

His love was just asking him why he had to keep his treatment a secret to him, especially when the outcome of his treatmentʼs failure was insanity. It was all about the secrecy of treatment!

But not only he didnʼt understand the meaning of his loveʼs confrontation, he even questioned the love between them, completely breaking the heart of Ye Qiuji who loves him as he is.

He felt like he was an idiot. It was right when Ye Qiuji called him a bastard and a jerk. After all, the one questioning their relationship and Ye Qiujiʼs love of him is none other than himself!

The door of the conference room was left open after Ye Qiuji took his leave, part ways the other couple, Tang Ruan and He Yuu, waiting outside the room overheard their conversation because of their keen senses as high-tier S Physique possessors. Everyone who can hear their conversation can see that the one at fault between the two lovers is obviously Long Xie.

He Yuu straightly-forwardly blamed his friendʼs mistake. ”AʼLong that was definitely your fault! Autumn was only worried about you.”

Forgetting that he was holding his wifeʼs hands, He Yuu tried to enter the conference room intending to give his friend a long scolding even unconsciously dragging his fiancée inside with him but when he felt that Tang Ruan didnʼt budge as he tried to drag him inside the room. He Yuu looked and saw his wife wearing a stunned expression.

He worriedly asked, ”Xiao Ru? Whatʼs wrong?” asked He Yuu worriedly.

Tang Ruan dazedly replied. ”That… in my whole life of… serving Autumn… whole 20 plus years… This!? This is the first time Iʼve seen Autumn cry!?”

Everyone was shocked with disbelief!

He Yuu, ”For real!?”

”Autumn and I were born almost the same year. Iʼve been serving him since I was 5 years old. Even when Old Master Ye hit him with a metal stick for his mistake. When he broke his arms or legs during training, when his body was riddled with bullets, or when his allies and people died in front of him. I have never seen him cry. Forget about secretly crying, that is impossible. Ye Qiuji is the type of man who hid his emotion behind his mischievous smile. Autumnʼs smile only disappears when heʼs angry! That is what we, who serve him know. But… this is the very first time Iʼve seen tears appear on his face!” explained Tang Ruan with a face of incredulity.

”AʼYuu, I need to see my boss for a moment. You should… talk to yours.” He said to his fiancé after giving Long Xie a few glances of distrust, Tang Ruan took his leave.

Silence engulfs the area as the tension slowly spreads in the atmosphere. He Yuu and Chen Sian saw their big boss dazed as if he had lost his soul. The two could only comfort him within the closed doors.

Long Xie looked at his friend, ”AʼHe… what do you think I should do? I… I made him cry.”

Stunned, ”T-That... I donʼt know… I havenʼt made Xiao Ru cry before!” exclaimed He Yuu who received a kick from Chen Sian gesturing him to shut his mouth.

”Sigh~ for now boss… you should give General Autumn the space he needs. Like he said your next treatment is scheduled two days from now. Letʼs focus on that first. After that… it is not too late to ask his forgiveness.” Said Chen Sian.

”R-Right! After your treatment, I will help you meet your lover. Itʼs not like youʼve broken up, right? He just said he wanted space for a short while. I will even accompany you to apologize if you want.” Said He Yuu.

Long Xie nodded his head silently. ”Tell the company to keep what happened today a secret. Inform them that our team will be temporarily unavailable. I... I will go to Dragon Cosmos and wait for my treatment.” He said as he took his leave with heavy steps.

The first elimination series ended with a bit of chaos. Especially when the Snowflakes Fans saw that Team Autumn Dragon members, Xie Long and Ye Qiu, retired in the middle of the game but the management didnʼt fully explain the reason.

They only said that the pair chose to retire in the middle of the game because of personal reasons. Because Tang Ruan and He Yuu remained in the game and won the first rank, their team retained its position in the company. Ye Wushengʼs team was ranked second after securing their own fan base.

After the match successfully ended the variety show gave the players a monthʼs vacation. Ye Qiuji after that day directly went home and buried himself with work. He has been having three straight nights of sleeplessness because of his 3S physique he couldnʼt even feel fatigued.

Tang Ruan who has been on standby by his side has been worrying that his lazy boss might become a workaholic instead. After all, within these three days, the paperwork he had done already passed their whole yearʼs worth of work, and his boss finished everything in just 3 days.

Even his brothers and a few colleagues were asking him to pull their boss out of his office else they would become jobless in the next few years.

Tang Ruan grabbed away the papers in his bossʼ hand and said, ”Boss, thatʼs enough. Youʼve imprisoned yourself in this office of yours for the whole three days. Your subordinates were crying because they had no job to work on. Please donʼt steal their tasks.”

”But if I donʼt do something I might go crazy.” Said Ye Qiuji.

”Autumn. A day had already passed since Long Huangdiʼs scheduled treatment. I havenʼt even heard anything from AʼYuu about the result. Are you not worried about him?” asked Tang Ruan but he spoke each word carefully.

SILENCE~

Tang Ruan watched his boss remain silent.

”Okay forget about him. Snowflakes Entertainment sends a message. Thereʼs an optional special training theyʼve offered to the players. I heard the children will attend. If youʼre feeling restless why donʼt you move your body instead? Attend the training.” Said Tang Ruan.

”...Register our names.” Replied Ye Qiuji.

Snowflakes Entertainmentʼs Playerʼs Dormitory. Ye Wusheng and his group noticed that none of the team Autumn Dragon was seen after the first elimination match. They didnʼt even hear movements from the other side of their wall. It seems their whole place was left empty for three days.

Lou Ye said, ”Iʼve heard rumors that Team Autumn Dragon might disband.”

”For real!?” said Lin Lan in surprise.

Tu Zise asked. ”But why?~”

”They said that Ye Qiu and Xie Long broke up which led the group to disband.” Replied Lou Ye.

”Thereʼs still a whole month before the next Elimination Series. Itʼs not yet sure whether they will disband.” Said Wusheng.

Lin Lan said, ”Wouldnʼt we be so lucky if that really happens? I mean, except for them, we could beat almost everyone.”

”A win by default is not a real victory.” Said Ye Wusheng.

”Indeed.” Said Lou Ye while others also agreed with what Ye Wusheng just said.

Lin Lan, ”By the way, there seems to be an optional special training that was scheduled to be done in Dragon Cosmos. Are any of you interested?”

The three immediately raise their agreement. ”Yes! We do.”

”Okay then prepare your things. Weʼll depart tomorrow.” Said Lin Lan.
