Extra: Lu Ting POV (1)

When Lu Ting opened his eyes, he found himself in an unfamiliar body. In all his previous missions, he had transmigrated with his body. This was his first time using the soul transfer method. He felt a bit unaccustomed to it.

There was another persons memory in his head. These belonged to the character he had to playZhou Yizhe. Meanwhile, 666 also told him the plot.

The worlds Lord G.o.d chose were all based on novels. Lu Ting had to follow his character settings to the tee. He was absolutely not allowed to OOC at all. Even when he was alone, he couldnt relax. This was because he was a capture target. He could be monitored by the capturing host at any time. Furthermore, he couldnt let Xie He figure out who he was. He also couldnt let Lord G.o.d figure out his true goal.

In this world, he had to be an NPC that had its own subjective consciousness.

This was the equivalent to the role Xie He used to play. Now, things were flipped. Lu Ting was the capture target while Xie He was the host who was doing the capturing. Xie He could also reveal his true self when he was alone. Meanwhile, Lu Ting had to maintain his facade at all times and perform as an adequate capture target.

His mission was to be stingy in giving Xie He Favourability points. He couldnt let Xie He complete his mission easily. As long as Xie He fell in any world, as long as he fell for someone, Lord G.o.d would win.

Lu Ting carefully read the novel I heard that My Boyfriends Brother Secretly Likes Me once over, memorizing the plot. The more he read, the more awkward his expression became. Meanwhile, 666 had already gotten used to it. He had read through all sorts of terrifically dogblooded erotic novels. Something on this level wasnt enough to faze him.

Although Lu Ting thought that the plot was a bit embarra.s.sing, he still followed the story line. At night, Zhao Qing would also be attending the same reception as him. He would be hara.s.sed. Meanwhile, Lu Ting would be the hero that sweeps in to save the beauty. Lu Ting felt happy when he thought of this. He suddenly didnt feel all that awkward anymore. Actually, he looked forward to it.

The most important part was that there was a lot of s.m.u.t in this novel. If he could really. Lu Ting suddenly snapped out of his fantasy and criticized himself. He shouldnt think too much. As long as Xie He wasnt willing, he wouldnt do such things to him. At that time, he could just change how he acts according to the situation.

Be that as it may, Lu Ting was still nervous and excited. However, that afternoon, 666 told him that Xie He didnt plan on going. Lu Ting felt a bit disappointed. If it was like this, hed have to find another way to meet Xie He. Just as he was wallowing in his disappointment, 666 then said that Xie He had changed his mind and would go.

No matter what, it was a good thing that Xie He was going. Lu Ting also partic.i.p.ated in the reception. He earnestly acted out his character, pretending that he didnt care about Xie He.

However, the moment Xie He entered the room, he had immediately noticed the other. Lu Tings gaze had pa.s.sed through the crowd, seemingly traversing through time and s.p.a.ce before finally landing on the person he had loved for a thousand years. Even if the others appearance was completely different, he knew that that body possessed the soul of his beloved.

Nothing could stop them from meeting again.

He had given up everything for the sake of this day.

At that moment, Lu Ting heard 666 tell him that Xie He was checking his Favourability Value.

Lu Ting really wanted to say that his Favourability Value was 100, but then theyd be done for. Therefore, he could only say, Favourability Value is 0.

The system immediately sent this back.

Ding, the target Zhou Yizhes current Favourability Value is 0.

After that, everything developed according to the plot. Lu Ting watched as two hedonistic young masters humiliated Xie He and forced him to drink drugged wine. He had gnashed his teeth, wanting to pinch these two maggots to death. However, he didnt forget that he had a role to act. Therefore, he could only force himself to remain calm. The whole time, 666 had been constantly warning him to stay calm.

Lu Ting endured and endured. When Ding Ming and his friend finally took Xie He away, he secretly tailed them. He stopped them, pretending not to care about Xie He. He then carried Xie He to a room in the hotel.

He had taken in Xie Hes enticing appearance. Although he looked different and his outward personality was completely unlike his original one, Lu Ting had still been turned on. He had never experienced such intense desire before. This was how much he had missed Xie He.

But Lu Ting had still hesitated. He had felt like he was taking advantage of someone while they were down. Therefore, he had gone to get a basin of cold water.

However, it hadnt helped.

At this moment, 666 had realized that something was wrong. He told Lu Ting that Xie He had used a high level aphrodisiac from the system store on himself. At this moment, Lu Tings mood became complicated.

666 had also felt the same. He had then said, awkwardly,

How about you go out for a walk and then disappear?

But Lu Ting had gazed at Xie He and gently pulled the other into his arms. Suddenly.he couldnt let go.

He had missed the other so much, yearned for him so much. He knew that well. Lu Ting stared at Xie He and in the end, lost control. He had then bent down and kissed him.

When it was over, Lu Ting had gone to sit on the sofa. He had really wanted to light a cigarette. Although they had both felt good, Xie He probably didnt know who he was. So did that mean that Xie He wouldnt hesitate to seduce any man for the sake of accomplis.h.i.+ng his goals? He was really flexible. Lu Ting suddenly thought about the hosts Xie He had slept withk2026;.

At this moment, he felt extremely stifled. He thought that even without Lord G.o.ds monitoring, he wouldnt want to give Favourability points anyway.

But that wouldnt do. He had to give him the points. Furthermore, he had to give in amounts that made sense. He had to make sure that Xie He could complete his mission. This was a good time to give Xie He some Favourability points. Lord G.o.d wouldnt see a problem with it.

Therefore, Lu Ting gave Xie He 30 Favourability points while immersed in jealousy.

Lu Ting sat there, just watching Xie He. When he saw Xie He show an ashamed and resentful expression upon waking up, apprehension gripped his heart. He felt guilty and pained. He began to wonder if he had been wrong. He thought that he must have blamed Xie He wrongly.

Xie He had to complete his mission. He had been forced to use this kind of method to seduce him. Otherwise, why would he have to sell his body like this? It had been the cruel reality that had turned his beloved youth into this.

Although Lu Ting looked indifferent and spoke ruthless words according to his character settingshis heart sunk lower and lower. Xie Hes reaction pained him terribly.

But at that momenthe heard Xie Hes Favourability Value notification. Xie He had generously given him 60 Favourability points.

Lu Ting: .

666 had also heard this. He had also been deceived by Xie Hes high level acting abilities. He had previously felt upset on his hosts behalf because he knew that Lu Ting couldnt bear to hurt Xie He.

But the Favourability Value notification was like a slap to Lu Tings face. It meant that Xie He actually felt really good and didnt care who it was he had slept with.

666 comforted Lu Ting by saying, This is good. Look, he doesnt blame you.

Lu Tings mood had become even more complicated. If Xie He had blamed him, he would have felt unwell. But now that Xie He didnt blame himhe felt jealous. Forget it, he shouldnt think so hard over this.

Lu Ting had then decided to leave. He had asked Xie He a question before leaving in accordance to the plot but Xie He hadnt hesitated in saying that he didnt want to know his name.

Lu Ting had thus given him another 10 points.

666 hadnt been able to help but warn Lu Ting.

Youre giving him points too quickly.

But Lu Ting had replied with,

It doesnt matter. Its not like the rate Im giving it isnt understandable.

He had left just like that. He had then decisively and quickly dealt with Ding Ming. Although Ding Ming hadnt managed to lay his hands on Xie He, Lu Ting had thought he was an irksome presence. No one was allowed to bully his people.

666 had felt helpless. However, he hadnt bothered to persuade Lu Ting. He knew that Lu Ting had always been protective. Although his actions hadnt been a part of the plot, it wasnt like it went against his character settings. Lord G.o.d probably wouldnt take any issue with it.

Xie He had been constantly on Lu Tings mind after he returned home. When he thought about how Xie He was his younger brothers boyfriend right now, and that the two of them were together all day and night, he couldnt help but wonder if something would happen between them. Therefore, after a few days, he couldnt stop himself from inviting Zhou Yian and Xie He out to eat.

He had then stopped Xie He in the washroom and gave Xie He more points after dallying with him a bit.

Actually, Lu Ting had been really uneasy the whole time he had been acting. This was because Xie Hes acting skill was really, really good. He hadnt been able to tell the others true thoughts from Xie Hes face. Everything had seemed so real, as if this was what Xie He had really thought. It made Lu Ting nearly incapable of persevering.

But 666 had kept encouraging him, telling him that he couldnt let things fall through from a lack of final effort.

666 had known that his host had a strong willpower. It was just that he would be soft-hearted when it came to Xie He. However, he had also known that Lu Ting would definitely be able to persist. If Lu Ting gave up, all his efforts would go to waste, after all.

Lu Ting didnt give up. He strictly followed his character settings. He uttered heartless words and forcibly took Xie He for his own.

It was onlythe Favourability points Xie He would occasionally give him after sleeping together that could let Lu Ting temporarily escape the stifling plot. It let him know that Xie He wasnt feeling unwell, that the other was actually living very happily, that he had never wronged himself.

This is what had driven Lu Tings motivation to persist. Otherwise, he would probably have been unable to continue on.

666, however, had felt that the circ.u.mstances were not good. Lu Ting had obviously fallen too deep into his role.

Lu Ting wasnt a good actor to begin with. He was with the person he loved but couldnt tell the other he loved him. Even when they were intimate, he had to force the other. He had to restrain his love and act out an abusive romance. He had to watch as his beloved showed him pained expressions. This had added a lot of pressure on Lu Tings already overloaded mental state.

Even though he knew Xie He didnt mind, Lu Ting was still hurt when he saw Xie Hes realistic acting.

This was because when he cared this much about someone, it would be impossible to not care about what he showed outwardly.

He couldnt ignore everything in front of him.

666 hadnt known what to do. He could only watch as Lu Ting suffered while acting. What made 666 even more speechless was that Lu Ting would get increasingly jealous. It was one thing to have been jealous of those hosts back then, but right now, even though the other knew that the supporting characters were shards of his own soul, he still got extremely jealous. One time, his jealousy had overcome his reasoning. Furthermore, he had been influenced by his roles memories. Therefore, he had been a bit violent during s.e.x. Xie He had then struck back.

Lu Ting had been drowning in pain and regret. He finally couldnt help but ask 666 if he was doing the right thing. He wanted to be with Xie He but they were only hurting each other right now.

666 hadnt been able to comfort him. All he could say was that they werent hurting each other, it was actually one-sided. Everything was going according to Xie Hes plans. Xie He was having a great time.

All he wants is your Favourability Value

, 666 had said

Dont think too much. Just give him the points he wants. This is what you should do for him.

Lu Ting could only believe in this. Every day, he acted his role and watched in despair as the person he loved expressed that he didnt love him back. He could only force the other to stay by his side.

Everyday was torturous. The antic.i.p.ation in the beginning had already disappeared without a trace.

In the end, when the world was about to end, Lu Ting had gone to that boat alone to save the kidnapped Xie He. He had suffered a very serious injury and had been stranded on the sea with Xie He. At that time, he had gotten to hear Xie He tell him for the first time that he might have been able to love him.

Lu Ting knew that Xie He didnt mean this. He also knew that Xie He hadnt been saying this to his real selfhe was telling this to the character he played.. However, he still felt happy. Wasnt it because he had wanted to come back to his beloved and hear him tell him he loved him that he had waited so long?

As long as he could hear these worlds, he would be happy, no matter what price he had to pay or how painful the process was.

He had happily given Xie He that last Favourability point.

He also loved Xie He.

Lu Ting shut his eyes. He was prepared to wait for death. This worlds existence depended on him. As long as his Favourability Value was maxed and he died, Lord G.o.d would be able to take back the energy of this world. This was the remuneration he had promised.

But what shocked him was that Xie He had saved him. The other had bitten his own wrist and fed him his blood so that he would live.

At that moment, he had seen a pair of bright, dazzling eyes that were completely different from that of Xie Hes character.

It had been the first time he had been able to see that person from long ago through Xie Hes eyes. Lu Ting finally understood that the person he loved had never changed. He still drew Lu Ting to him. Lu Ting had wanted to stop Xie He. He had known that Xie He would die like this. However, he hadnt had the strength to stop him.

In the end, he could only helplessly watch as Xie He had died next to him.

Lu Ting had seen death too many times. However, he had never felt as sad and pained as he had then. He had held Xie Hes corpse and drifted along that huge sea.

That scene had triggered his deepest fears. What he had been most afraid of was Xie He dying.

This time, Xie Hes death was fake. But what if next time, it was real?

Perhaps one day, Xie He would suddenly disappear.

They were nothing but insects treading the line between life and death. They were minute beings before Lord G.o.d, fate, and the transmigrating world.

666 hadnt said anything as he watched this all happen. He knew that sometimes, comfort would be useless. He knew what his host cared about most.

Even if Xie He hadnt died for realhe had only left the world Lu Ting loved him. Therefore, even if he knew that this was fake, he would still be unable to remain indifferent. Having to watch the person he loved die in front of him was a terrifying ordeal.

Lu Ting feared losing Xie He but he would have no choice but to lose Xie He over and over again. This had only been the first time.

Lu Ting persevered in that world for another five years. He then went into the sea. He couldnt stay in this world without Xie He any longer. Every second of his life, the scene of Xie He dying in his arms would replay in his mind. In the end, he had almost become incapable of differentiating between what was real and what was fake. The person he loved was the person he had carefully protected for ten years. However, the person who had been in this world with him, wasnt that also Xie He?

Was the time they spent together here also real?

Everything had really happened. Lu Ting had felt really unwell but he couldnt just go die. That completely out of character action would arouse Lord G.o.ds suspicion. Since the game had started, he would have to abide by the rules.

That had been why he had waited so long.

The second worlds setting was a school campus. Lu Ting was a student named Li Hongxuan. According to the story line, he would get entangled with a teacher named Su Yan. In the end, they would get together after overcoming all sorts of obstacles.

When Lu Ting had opened his eyes, he had found himself in a cla.s.sroom. 666 had then told him that Xie He would soon arrive.

He had lived a solitary life for five years in the previous world. He itched to see Xie He again. Being able to see Xie He alive, doing wellthat was the only thing that could bring him solace.

Xie He had indeed come. But even though he had known there was a trap set at the door, he had still walked in without any hesitation. He had ended up drenched and swiftly raked in a wave of Favourability points.

Lu Tings expression had been complicated. On one hand he had been really happy to see Xie He again, but he had then thought about how Xie Hes seductive appearance had been seen by so many people! When he saw those people look at Xie He with eyes full of l.u.s.t, he had wanted to gouge their eyes out!

Furthermore, the supporting leads of this world were obviously not easy to deal with.

Reality unfolded as Lu Ting had predicted. Allen and co. had become interested in Xie He. They were all sons of the rich that would resort to any method to get what they wanted. Lu Ting had been really worried and had constantly asked 666 for details about Xie Hes situation.

666 had told Lu Ting that he didnt have to worry. Xie He had seen through everything already. 666 had said that Xie He already knew these students true faces.

With Xie Hes level, your character, as well as Allen and co. stand no chance! You dont have to do anything! Xie He will be able to max out all of your Favourability Values!

Lu Ting had thought that 666 was right. Xie He would never fall for such a crude scheme. However, before Lu Ting could put his heart to restXie He had thrown himself into the trap.

666 felt like his face had been slapped.

Lu Ting had then furiously asked,

Didnt you say that Xie He knew what was up?

666 had replied that Xie He had indeed been aware of this.

He probably thinks that hed be able to raise their Favourability Values more quickly like this?

666 had added.

Lu Ting: .

What could he do? He could only cooperate.

Xie He had sent himself to Allen and friends hands. He had been forced to take nude photos. At that time, Lu Ting had been so furious. He couldnt keep watching this. It had been the same in the last world too. Xie He didnt know how to treasure himself. Was completing his mission that important to him? Fine, it was indeed extremely important, but why didnt Xie He choose a more gentle method? Why did he have to be so reckless?

For the first time, Lu Ting had lowered his Favourability Value. That was how 666 had known he had been truly angry.

However, Lu Ting couldnt control Xie He. When Allen had been forcing Xie He in their dorm room, he had lied on his bed, watching the scene with indifference. However, the hand under his sheets had been clenched into a tight fist. He had been waiting for Xie He to ask him for help. But even if Xie He hadnt asked him for help, hewouldnt have been able to ignore it in any case!

Luckily, Xie He hadnt forgotten who his capture target was. He didnt just busy himself with raising Allens Favourability Value and asked Lu Ting for help.

Only then had Lu Ting sighed in relief. He hadnt hesitated to protect Xie He. Furthermore, he proposed that Xie He sell his body to him. After all, according to his character settings, he wasnt a benevolent person.

Xie Hes target had been Lu Ting. Lu Ting knew Xie He was scheming against him but he endured that hards.h.i.+p gladly. He thought that it was better for Xie He to plot against him than someone else.

He thus pretended to be indifferent while slowly giving Xie He points as they spent time together.

He used Xie Hes debt to bind him to himself.

There had been a moment where Lu Ting had thought that this world was good. Although they could not reveal their true selves, at least he finally had Xie He. Furthermore, Xie He didnt loathe him. Lu Ting had known that Xie He would always wait for him in the cafeteria. He hadnt been able to restrain his happiness over Xie Hes little plans. That was why he had gotten closer to Xie He, as the other had wanted. He had always known that Xie He had already eaten breakfast but would still make him eat again. He would watch as the other ate with tears in his eyes. Lu Ting had actually felt a bit happy during those days.

But later, Lu Ting found out that he had been too happy too soon.

How could Xie He let them be together in peace? He still had a grudge against Lu Ting, after all.

Sere: d.a.m.n seeing it from the other side is wack af. Sad for Lu Ting still.Even though we all know XH is just playing him
