GBT Chapter 106
by VolareSo,
What binds Qi Yi Liao’s inner world isn’t family, nor is it a genetic disease, but…
“The original manga?” Jiao Bai narrowed his eyes. He had seen plots where paper figures developed self-awareness, either through a serious illness or suddenly one day, realizing that the world they lived in was a manga and everyone around them was a fictional character. At this moment, he couldn’t help but speculate along those lines.
So, Qi Yi Liao had an independent consciousness in the first loop, and when he came back for the second loop, his consciousness followed him and wasn’t erased by the world?
Jiao Bai wasn’t sure.
He also didn’t know how much Qi Yi Liao was specifically aware of, whether it was complete or fragmented. He thought that once Qi Yi Liao woke up, they should have a good heart-to-heart.
Also, Qi Yi Liao lived under a dense network of surveillance cameras. Was it because the world’s consciousness was like a surveillance eye to him? He hated the feeling of being monitored from all angles but couldn’t get rid of it, always trapped inside. To alleviate the resistance and survive, did he have to numb himself through monitoring?
The purpose of those surveillance cameras might also be that Qi Yi Liao was monitoring himself, afraid that his character attributes might be suddenly modified one day, or that he might do something uncontrollable under the influence of the plot.
Jiao Bai tried his best to restrain his imagination. When he looked at Qi Yi Liao’s portrait again, the information on it was clear.
“The world is suppressing Qi Yi Liao’s life consciousness. How can I help him tear off that thin wire representing the plot and set him free?” Jiao Bai cursed, “That’s the shackle of fate, can it be broken? Damn it.”
Jiao Bai scratched his head vigorously, his scalp stinging from the nails. Damn, so annoying, don’t want to think about it, don’t want to think about it. The ship will naturally straighten when it reaches the bridge. First, complete Yu Ling’s activity points step by step.
The white flower on Qi Yi Liao’s portrait was still missing petals. Jiao Bai had to do tasks and pray, hoping he would hold on.
Don’t fall short.
For him and for Qi Yi Liao.
Jiao Bai blinked, and the next second, he gasped.
The cover of the manga originally had only the two words “Broken Wings” printed on it, but now, at this moment, three small red characters in a vertical row had been added to the left of the title: First Loop.
The book seemed to be opening little by little.
Was it possible that once the book was opened, he could see where that thin wire that was strangling Qi Yi Liao went after drilling in?
Jiao Bai stared at it motionless, his eyes glued together, his eyeballs aching.
Qi Huai’s voice came from outside the study: “Young Master Bai, we should leave.”
“Okay.” Jiao Bai pressed his overused eyes. He temporarily pushed aside the information about Qi Yi Liao’s portrait in his mind and decided not to think about it for now. Let’s go.
The dog-blood plot of Cen Jingmo’s wedding was waiting for him. Hopefully, it would be the last one before he completed his task.
Changmin Island.
In early June, the temperature on the island was moderate, the sun was not strong, and flocks of seagulls flew over, curiously looking at the luxury cruise ships and watching the wealthy businessmen, celebrities, and artists from various news headlines disembark and enter the island.
Before long, a helicopter landed, and a group of people came down. It was Jiao Bai, who refused to take a boat, along with Zhang Zhen, who was in charge of martial matters, and Qi Da, Qi Er, and others, and Qi Huai, who was in charge of literary matters.
Jiao Bai tightened the drawstring of his fisherman’s hat, no matter how the sea breeze blew his large brim, it couldn’t blow his hat away.
Sand flew onto Jiao Bai’s shoes, and he looked around. This small island belonged to the Cen family. It had appeared in the manga. Cen Jingmo had stayed here for a day or two, crazily missing Li Jue.
He admitted that his feelings for Li Jue were more than just using and scheming. He had fallen in love with Li Jue, who loved Shen Er An, and with Li Jue’s obsession.
“Bai Bai, let’s go.” Zhang Zhen pulled Jiao Bai and met the people from the Cen family.
As Jiao Bai walked, a patch of white houses came into view. He thought of the Cen family’s old house, which was located in an ancient town with blue bricks and gray tiles, deep courtyards, and small bridges and flowing water. The Cen family wasn’t just any building in the town, but an entire town, all of it belonged to the Cen family.
Those who dealt in arms sales embraced the antique style.
The male second leads in dog-blood comics, regardless of whether their appearance, wealth, or family background was weaker or stronger than the male lead, would lose miserably and end up with nothing.
Tomorrow was the wedding day of the Cen family’s crown prince. Guests were arriving one after another today, but the person in question was like a free man. Instead of personally receiving the guests, he was nestled on a tatami mat covered with a thick layer of velvet, feeding the fish.
The fish food was given sparingly, and the fish scrambled to snatch it.
“Young Master, the people from the Qi family have arrived.” A servant came in to report.
Cen Jingmo was watching the fish.
The servant waited with a bow. The crown prince had instructed that if people from the Qi family came, he was to be notified.
“Take them to Siming Courtyard.” A voice sounded from the tatami mat.
The servant responded and went out. Although the crown prince hadn’t made an appointment to meet the Qi family, he didn’t arrange them with the other guests but gave them a separate courtyard, which was enough to prove his importance.
Siming Courtyard was behind the villa complex on the small island, leading its own way, quiet and peaceful.
Jiao Bai loosened the drawstring of his fisherman’s hat, took the hat off and threw it on the bed, then he threw himself on it too, his legs hanging off the edge of the bed, his body slumped and motionless.
Zhang Zhen was checking the room, holding a gun in his hand, pacing back and forth, sniffing this and that like a leopard.
Jiao Bai was about to close his eyes and sleep for a while when he heard the sound of pages turning.
“Whoosh.”
The paper flipped over.
Jiao Bai suddenly opened his eyes. The manga book with the blood cat on Qi Yi Liao’s portrait had been opened, revealing the page,
——Character outline setting: Qi Yi Liao.
The thin wire was nailed on it.
Supporting character Qi Yi Liao: A lone wolf who survived the internal power struggles of the family, has mysophobia, elegant and humorous mask hides gloom and cruelty, extremely world-weary and lonely inside, forever infatuated with innocence and kindness.
Guide: Let him see your pure white, smell your cleanliness, pinch your weakness, taste your tears, lick and kiss your soul, and be deeply trapin the sea of lust for you.
Paranoid attribute: Undetermined.
Innocent and kind, clean and pure, weak and crying, isn’t that the Li Jue type?
Jiao Bai looked down with a dark face, as if struck by lightning.
[Qi Yi Liao (Male Second Lead)]
[Emotional line outline: The Qi family has a history of genetic diseases. Qi Yi Liao’s father and brothers died one after another after falling ill. Since childhood, he has been learning to control his mind under the supervision of his mother. After taking power, he appears to be successful, but in reality, he lives a very tiring life, and his soul is weathered and Unbearable.
[One day, Qi Yi Liao dreamed that he was in the countryside. Everything was unfamiliar. He walked aimlessly on the ridge of the field and heard the sound of reading.
In the halo of the morning light, a boy was sitting on the hillside reading a book.
Qi Yi Liao walked closer unconsciously. He leaned against the tree and listened to the reading, and his tired spirit gradually became calm.]
[The reading stopped, Qi Yi Liao opened his eyes and found that the boy was looking at him in surprise, his deer-like eyes widening.
Qi Yi Liao used to only wear a gentle Skin, with indifference inside, but he didn’t know how to do something abnormal. He walked over and talked to the boy.]
[In the dream, Qi Yi Liao realized another meaning of being alive.
After waking up from the dream, Qi Yi Liao couldn’t remember the scene in the dream, and the boy’s appearance was also blurred. He only remembered that the boy said he was eighteen years old, still in school, and his voice was sweet.
Qi Yi Liao couldn’t forget that dream, he was obsessed. He started looking for boys of that age to read to him. Half a year later, he actually found his little deer again in the vast sea of people, Li Jue.]
[Qi Yi Liao’s growth experience taught him restraint. He didn’t forcibly plunder Li Jue, but chose to be an observer.
[Later, Qi Yi Liao watched Li Jue fall in love with his old friend’s son, Shen Er An, and saw him Sleepyby love, suffering from injuries. He couldn’t help but turn from an observer into an amiable elder.
[Later, old friend Chu Dongshan, the Cen family’s little prince, one by one, became fascinated by Li Jue, and Qi Yi Liao couldn’t suppress his emotions and desires any longer. He secretly had someone kidnap Li Jue, and then saved the other party from the fire and water as a benefactor. They spent a period of quiet life in the countryside. Li Jue discovered the truth about his kidnapping and hated Qi Yi Liao’s hypocrisy and secretly ran away. Qi Yi Liao Grasphim back and exposed his true side. At that time, Shen Er An’s people also came over.]
[Shen Er An Take itpower. Qi Yi Liao cooperated with his old friend Shen Ji but still failed. The Qi family went bankrupt, with heavy casualties. He was old and couldn’t fight anymore, and finally left the country in disappointment with a sick and disabled body. In the epilogue, he Encounterhis light, his salvation, abroad.]
Jiao Bai: “…………” The green smoke above his head was too damn green.
It’s okay, it’s Voidgreen, not real.
Jiao Bai smacked his lips. The original work was the first loop of this world. In it, Qi Yi Liao was the only high-quality supporting character whose settings weren’t clearly explained. The manga only said that he was mature and charming, with constant lovers and engaged in the real estate industry. Compared with other full supporting characters, his character was much flatter.
Feelings The author of “Broken Wings” originally wanted Qi Yi Liao to be the male second lead, but later changed the outline and removed some of his settings.
No, it wasn’t changed.
Because if it was changed, the first loop character setting shown now wouldn’t be this.
Then there was only one possibility left: the Qi Yi Liao in the manga that Jiao Bai had followed was already the result of his self-struggle.
The author’s creative process was affected by Qi Yi Liao’s struggle, and he couldn’t pull him back to the main line, allowing Li Jue to Unlock his gentleman’s shackles and lead him into the world.
The last part of Qi Yi Liao’s outline showed that he was standing outside the plot line, hastily ending his life under the settings of inevitable short life and other things, becoming a regretful supporting character for fans to ship.
The manga world and the real world influenced each other.
Suddenly thrilling.
Jiao Bai’s Adam’s apple rolled. He didn’t know what factors prompted the protagonists and supporting characters in this comic to start their lives again, for the second loop, everything started from scratch. Although Qi Yi Liao still retained his self-awareness, he still had no way to resist the part that he couldn’t resist in the first loop. He was helpless. He gave up and waited for himself to move towards a set ending.
However, he was not at peace in his subconscious. He was still unwilling. He was waiting hopelessly, waiting for an Extraordinaryto hear his cry for help.
I’m here.
I am that Extraordinary.
So, Qi Yi Liao stared at me, bit me tightly, and finally fell in love with me.
Jiao Bai’s legs hanging off the edge of the bed were tingling. The thin wire was connected between the blood cat and the character setting, stretched to the extreme.
Qi Yi Liao, lying in the research institute, began to struggle again. He wanted to escape.
Something flashed in Jiao Bai’s mind, and his heart beat faster. Qi Yi Liao’s genetic disease was also one of the settings that he couldn’t get rid of in both loops. Did that mean that once the thin wire was broken, he would break free from fate, and his lifespan could…
The opposite was also true.
As long as he didn’t die, he would Leavethe setting and be free.
Suddenly, there was a faint itch on one of his ankles, like someone was panting on it.
Damn it!
Jiao Bai suddenly lifted his feet and stepped on the bed. He turned his head to face the wall inside the bed, changed his position, and leaned over to the edge of the bed, looking down.
A furry head was lieunder the bed.
Jiao Bai: “…”
He quickly pulled the sheets down, pretending to be sleepy, and called out to Zhang Zhen: “Brother, I want to sleep for a while.”
“Then go to sleep, I’ll be outside.” Zhang Zhen went out with a thermos cup and wolfberries.
Jiao Bai patted the bed board: “Come out.”
The sheets moved, and a slender figure crawled out from under the bed.
Jiao Bai looked at him without saying a word——Li Jue, the protagonist shou of the first loop, tomorrow’s bride.
Li Jue was wearing ill-fitting pink and blue long clothes and trousers, making him look even weaker and more tender, like a junior high school student: “You, who are you?”
Jiao Bai’s teeth itched. He had seen Li Jue in lolita clothes online and thought it was stupid. Now that he was asked this question, he was speechless.
Li Jue was really stupid?
Had he forgotten everything he had done? Impossible!
Jiao Bai immediately checked Li Jue’s portrait, and then frowned.
The background of Li Jue, which was originally full of hundreds, was Shen Er An’s one-inch photo background, blue. Now it was still blue, but it was a lighter shade.
The design of the edge of the portrait was Shen Er An’s eyes. This had not changed, but the eyes also seemed to be blurred.
A guess jumped out of Jiao Bai’s heart. He was afraid of being disappointed if he thought too much, so he decided not to develop his ideas first and wait until he carefully verified them.
“I am your enemy.” Jiao Bai scrutinized Li Jue.
