LGSG Chapter 9
by VolareChapter 9 Soul Fragment (Revised) Mr. Xie is stubbornly pretending too…
By the window, the young man in a cyan robe sitting in a wheelchair was calmly flipping through a book.
Hearing footsteps, he stopped turning the page and looked up at the butler.
“Did you let Xia Ran into my room last night?” Mr. Xie asked.
The butler’s gaze fell on the red fabric faintly visible under the cyan robe. He thought to himself that Mr. Xie’s style of clothing had changed quite a bit. He used to dislike such bright red and purple colors, finding them gaudy. He didn’t think in any other direction.
Mr. Xie has a good figure, and he wears long underwear with an elegant, traditional Chinese feel.
Butler: “Is there a problem?”
Last night, he saw Xia Ran looking aggrieved, so he asked a question. He learned that Xia Ran was planning to give a gift to Mr. Xie. Although the butler had never seen a human player trying to please the final Boss of the, since Mr. Xie had accepted him as a personal servant, the butler, as a working NPC, naturally wouldn’t think too much. Instead, he directed Xia Ran to Mr. Xie’s bedroom.
Now, the butler’s heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that Xia Ran did something last night?
After Mr. Xie sent Xia Ran out to do a task today, a visible layer of anger pressed down on him. He telepathically notified the butler to go out and disperse the human players.
Mr. Xie: “No problem.”
It was just an ordinary case of public embarrassment.
Butler: “…”
But Mr. Xie’s smile is becoming more and more terrifying!
“Xia Ran is indeed a bit too erratic, we can’t grasp his thought process.” The butler said sincerely, “If you feel that it’s affecting your work order…”
Mr. Xie abruptly interrupted him: “No, I quite like him.”
Butler: “?”
Tell me more about liking him?
“Don’t you think it’s interesting?” The man in the wheelchair slightly restrained his smile, revealing a hidden coldness, “Disordered chaos, it makes people look forward to what kind of tricks he can come up with next.”
At least Xia Ran doesn’t want to kill him. There is no malice.
There is even a subtle care.
Most importantly, it is very much in line with Mr. Xie’s self-aesthetic.
These words had a different effect in the butler’s ears.
Staring at the increasingly cold Mr. Xie in front of him, the butler thought, “Oh no, Mr. Xie has been forced into a beautiful mental state by Xia Ran.”
“The soul fragments you lost a few days ago still haven’t been found.” The butler said worriedly, “I will continue to order the players to help you retrieve them.”
He was already mentally unstable. Now there is a human variable added.
Mr. Xie has some strange masochistic hobbies.
Mr. Xie waved his hand.
Signaling the butler to leave, there was nothing to talk about.
Although he always has a smile on his face, he doesn’t actually give people a sense of closeness. The smile is just a defensive disguise for Mr. Xie to approach the human form. Because it is too stiff, probably no one but Xia Ran thinks his smile looks good.
Mr. Xie picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip.
Suddenly felt something was wrong.
Speaking of which, he only asked Xia Ran to go to the bamboo warehouse behind the Bamboo Pavilion to get some tea cakes, why is he so slow?
Mr. Xie suddenly had a bad feeling.
However, this premonition was only a hint, and the black-haired youth had already rushed in.
“Mr. Xie!”
He was always calm and expressionless with dead fish eyes, it was rare to hear Xia Ran’s emotional fluctuations so loudly.
Although his inner thoughts have always been quite rich and colorful.
Mr. Xie has not fully reconciled with himself wearing red long underwear, hearing Xia Ran’s voice, the hand holding the handle of the teacup trembled slightly.
In the end, he stabilized his self-image, gently and steadily placed it on the coaster in front of Xia Ran, and showed a moderate smile: “What’s wrong?”
Xia Ran was carrying a mahogany box in one hand, which contained the tea cakes that Mr. Xie had asked him to get. The other hand carried a sack-like thing on his shoulder.
Looking closely, he realized that it was a comatose child.
Mr. Xie’s smile almost couldn’t hold back: “Do you need me to destroy the body and eliminate traces?”
Xia Ran “ah” sounded, and his brain circuit only barely returned to the ranks of normal people.
His fair face flushed instantly.
Was he too loud just now?
Being so unrestrained in front of others, wasn’t he a little impolite?
Ugh QAQ
Sure enough, it’s better not to speak.
Xia Ran blushed and put the child down from his shoulder to the ground.
“Mr. Xie,” Xia Ran tried to suppress his embarrassment, “I found him in the bamboo garden, is he your child?”
Mr. Xie’s gaze fell on the child. He had the same overly flamboyant and ghostly white hair as him, and his facial features resembled him in some ways.
No wonder he was misunderstood by Xia Ran.
Mr. Xie was hurt by the previous round of players not long ago, damaging his soul itself. Although it was not completely crippled, a small part of the soul fragments escaped from the body and have been hidden in various corners of Sui Yuan Ju. Later, he was busy dealing with the game’s accountability and the entry of new players, so Mr. Xie forgot about these soul fragments.
For him, soul fragments are like cut-off projections of past memories, and the impact is not significant. However, the butler has always been worried that Mr. Xie would lose his core strength because of this, so he has always advocated collecting fragments.
As a result, Xia Ran unexpectedly picked up a piece.
“What did you do to him?” Mr. Xie looked at the soul fragment that was still sleeping dizzily.
Xia Ran: “Ah, this…”
The black-haired youth silently took out a stack of dried rose petals, and handed them to Mr. Xie like a puppy who had done something wrong.
Mr. Xie: “…”
Mr. Xie’s back pressed against the wheelchair.
“This is…” Mr. Xie said, “What are you going to do with it?”
When can the toxic rose farce stop!
Xia Ran: “I saw that Mr. Xie liked them very much, so I planned to make flower cakes for Mr. Xie to eat.”
The black-haired youth answered honestly. Mr. Xie also believed that he didn’t need to lie in this regard.
Mr. Xie: “…”
Fortunately, it was fed to the unlucky soul fragment instead of himself.
If he encountered a fragment, Mr. Xie would definitely absorb and fuse it.
But the problem is that this fragment has just eaten toxic roses.
Mr. Xie seriously thought about whether eating the fragment would transfer the toxicity to himself.
The item “Chains” is not fatal, but it will cause dizziness.
Thinking finished.
Mr. Xie pondered: “This is not our child, you are mistaken.”
Xia Ran: “?”
The black-haired youth lowered his head to look at the child’s extraordinary facial features, and then looked at Mr. Xie’s almost rare hair color.
The few brain cells he had almost burned out at this moment.
He said dryly: “But, after all, I was the one who stunned him.”
If it was a pollen allergy, then wouldn’t he be guilty?
Although it is a game, he can’t be an outlaw!
Mr. Xie: “I don’t think he will die.”
Xia Ran: “…”
Mr. Xie is good in every way.
But sometimes the villainous flavor is too strong.
Mr. Xie raised his eyes and met the youth’s dead fish eyes.
This time, they contained condemnation, incomprehension, and a subtle hint of heartache.
Just like a small bird’s puffed-up chest.
Mr. Xie: “…”
Mr. Xie subtly shifted his gaze.
“Maybe he’s my father’s illegitimate son.” He made up, “Anyway, it has nothing to do with me.”
The child on the ground just woke up from the dizziness of the toxic roses.
As the soul fragment of the final Boss, as soon as he woke up, he heard the ruthless words of the main body.
Xiao Xie sneered: “Ha.”
The henpecked copy BOSS, what a disgrace.
