Master Grim Reaper Makes His Debut in Center Position

The topic #Qu Dehui’s Livestream# flew to the hot topics list. Many people were very surprised after they understood what had happened.

Not even novels could write out something like a singer who had personally admitted to have stolen others’ songs after having relied on composing music to become popular.

The fans who truly liked him couldn’t accept this and desperately hoped he was joking. Even if this joke was too over the top, it was better than having the person they liked turn out to be a thief.

Qu Dehui’s phone had probably broken when he had thrown it away. Seeing that he hadn’t appeared online again, along with the strong jeers of netizens, a few true fans ran over to the company’s Weibo for an explanation.

But before his management group could even make a sound, a newly registered account appeared to throw out evidence of a list of songs that Qu Dehui had purchased.

Only after looking at this evidence did everyone realise that Qu Dehui hadn’t written a single song by himself in the ten years since his debut. He was really incredible for being able to bury this for so long.

However much fans liked him before, it was now how much they hated him.

[@Call Me Qu Tai Tai: I’ve liked him since his debut. The first album really made me ascend into a deity. Although he didn’t maintain the quality of his work in the middle, I continued to support him. I originally thought I could continue doing this, but instead I’ve been told his songs aren’t his own. I was very angry at first, and then miserable afterwards. I’m angry because the person I liked is a scammer through and through. I’m miserable because of that original composer. He should be the one I like ah, but he’s not here anymore and I don’t even know who he is. This really makes people miserable.]

The ID was registered before. Since Weibo limited name changes, the owner of the account had to wait to change it.

Many people were brought to tears by her last sentences. It was unclear who was first, but everyone began liking this original composer, wondering if he could come out and say something.

Seeing that quite a few posts related to Qu Dehui had appeared on the hot topics, Lu Xu didn’t check his phone again.

“I’ve seen those who have run into difficulties, but I haven’t seen someone so willing to make things difficult for himself.” Lu Xu turned around on the bed, poking the Ba Mei curled up by the pillow over and over again.

He was already pale. The light hitting against him made his skin look even better. There wasn’t a single flaw.

Ji Xiunian didn’t know himself why he had begun thinking of a work of art. Although this comparison wasn’t quite appropriate, Lu Xu truly had a hint of this.

“He did so many horrible things, so I guess he felt guilty.” Ji Xiunian glanced at Weibo and couldn’t help sighing. “Even the show’s Weibo account has fans resisting the situation. Fan ge is going to be working hard this time.”

“Ai?” When Lu Xu heard this, he couldn’t help but lean over, wanting to take a look at Ji Xiunian’s phone.

The two of them were already close to each other. Lu Xu turned around and leaned his head over, his chin resting on top of Ji Xiunian’s shoulder. “You don’t say, it really is…”

After feeling his chin on top of his shoulder, Ji Xiunian didn’t dare to move, but he wasn’t sure what he was afraid of. From this angle, he could see Lu Xu’s side profile. His curled eyelashes and pretty jawline; no matter what it was, it was perfect.

Lu Xu was really attractive, attractive to the point that it was very easy for him to move others with only his face.

Ji Xiunian once again felt his heartbeat quicken by a few beats, and his face felt a little hot.

He subconsciously averted his gaze. Just when he was feeling a bit better, Lu Xu’s hand went to rest against his forehead. “Nian ge, your face is so red. Do you have a fever?”

“No…” Lu Xu’s voice was by his ear. The two of them were very close to each other. Ji Xiunian could even vividly hear his breathing.

He couldn’t help but stiffen up somewhat. The forehead that had been touched by Lu Xu was like this as well, itchy and burning.

Lu Xu decided that it didn’t seem like he had a fever after touching him, and didn’t think more of it. “Maybe the weather has been too hot recently.”

Ji Xiunian glanced towards Lu Xu and nodded. “It really is hot. I’m going to take a quick shower.”

“Go, go.” Lu Xu embraced Ba Mei and lay on the bed. As he thought about closing his eyes and resting for a while, he heard the sound of knocking on glass from outside.

It was 3:30 in the morning, and they were even on the second floor. Normal people wouldn’t be running over to knock on a window at this time.

Ba Mei sprang up into a sitting position on the bed, its eyes huge as it stared outside, clearly preparing itself for something.

The sound of knocking on glass continued. It sounded especially abrupt in the silence of the night.

Lu Xu was too lazy to get up, and merely reached his hand out to the curtain switch at his bedside.

The curtains creaked open leisurely in two directions, and quickly revealed the scene behind in a glance.

A cloud of dark energy was outside, two eyes reflecting green light. Long claws scratched at the glass. It was a little creepy to see.

An evil spirit?

Lu Xu raised his eyebrows, not paying much attention to it. He merely sneered with a slight disdain. “Where did this ugly thing come from? Can’t it pay attention to its personal image?”

The evil spirit’s aura was that of one who wanted to terrorise people, baring its teeth and claws from the other side of the window. But upon seeing Lu Xu’s face after the curtain opened, it immediately curled up into a frightened ball. Before Lu Xu even made any movement, the evil spirit had already let out a scream and ran away.

Lu Xu exchanged looks with Ba Mei. No way, right? How could they be an evil spirit with that kind of attitude?

The spirit had just been scared off when Ji Xiunian came out of the bathroom. “Was there a noise just now?”

Lu Xu shook his head. “Was there? I don’t think so.”

Ji Xiunian didn’t think that he was lying, so he just said, “Maybe I heard it wrong… Hm? How come the curtains are open?”

“Ohh, I must have touched it by accident.” Lu Xu smiled, and closed the curtains.

Ji Xiunian wasn’t suspicious at all, he just got into bed as he dried his hair.

This wasn’t the first time the two of them were sleeping together. Lu Xu didn’t think it was a big deal. He just said goodnight and also lay down.

“Goodnight, sweet dreams.” Ji Xiunian turned off the lights, and couldn’t resist giving Ba Mei scratches on the head.

He had never been able to sleep well. He never fell back asleep after waking up early. He thought that it would be the same now, but who knew that with Lu Xu by his side, his eyes grew heavier and heavier.

He was surrounded by Lu Xu’s scent. Before he drifted off into sleep, Ji Xiunian also wondered what that smell was similar to. But before he figured it out, he was already falling asleep.

Sensing that his breathing had become slow and steady, Lu Xu once again opened his eyes.

Ji Xiunian liked to sleep on his side and occupied very little space, and it looked like there was no sense of security.

Any normal person who experienced traumatic incidents from a young age would probably also not have any kind of sense of safety either.

But Ji Xiunian never held any resentment. He always treated the world kindly. Lu Xu sometimes didn’t understand it, whether he was truly that naive and kind, or if it were a malevolent spirit’s facade.

“Ha…”

The thought of a malevolent spirit made even Lu Xu want to laugh.

Ji Xiunian’s kind and gentle personality didn’t seem to have anything to do with evil spirits.

He didn’t know what he was thinking about either. He just grabbed Ji Xiunian’s wrist to take a look at it.

That mark was still there, it didn’t change or darken, and seemed to be in a stable state. He still remembered that aura of death around Ji Xiunian when they had first met, but now there seemed to be a delicate state of balance, and he couldn’t figure out why that was.

Lu Xu couldn’t come to a conclusion right now, so he planned to take it one step at a time.

Just as he was deep in thought, he felt something grasp his own hand.

Lu Xu wanted to pull himself away, but Ji Xiunian was strong and didn’t seem to want to let go.

“Don’t go…”

Ji Xiunian was frowning, and he seemed to be having a nightmare.

Lu Xu could definitely extricate himself, but if he used that kind of force then Ji Xiunian would also wake up.

“Meow…”

Ba Mei watched Ji Xiunian, head tilting before glancing at Lu Xu, looking a little worried.

“You’ve become his cat because he feeds you so much.” Lu Xu had always liked Ba Mei’s adoration for Ji Xiunian, so he jokingly teased the cat.

Whatever. If he was being held, then so be it. He could treat it as an premature kindness towards a client.

As Lu Xu thought this, he lay down beside Ji Xiunian. He would have to endure two more hours before he woke up and could be released.

Ji Xiunian slept very well like this, and he realised there was another person beside him when he woke up.

The youth had closed his eyes to rest. The bridge of his nose was straight, his lips were attractive, and his pale skin made other people feel good from looking at it.

Ji Xiunian’s eyes wandered down, and he saw that their hands were intertwined. Actually, it was he who had been holding onto Lu Xu’s hand without letting go.

So, had they been holding hands the entire time they were sleeping?

Just as he was hesitating, Lu Xu suddenly spoke. “Nian ge, if you still don’t let go, my hand is going to go numb.”

“Ah?” Ji Xiunian was a bit flustered when he heard that, and immediately let go. “Sorry, Lu Xu, I didn’t mean to do that.”

“Mhm.” Lu Xu gently stretched his fingers, and didn’t take the matter to heart. “Although I don’t know what you were dreaming about, a dream is a dream. It’s not reality so there’s nothing to be scared of.”

When he heard Lu Xu say this, he was quite shocked.

He knew that he’d had a nightmare, but he couldn’t remember what it was about.

From what he could remember, nightmares and death came hand in hand.

Because of those nightmares, he rarely slept well. Over time, he subconsciously feared falling asleep.

But after hearing Lu Xu’s words, Ji Xiunian suddenly came to a kind of realisation.

Nightmares were also dreams. They didn’t exist in reality, so it did seem like there wasn’t anything to be afraid of.

“You knew I had a nightmare?”

Lu Xu nodded his head and didn’t deny it. “Mn, it’s very obvious.”

So, Lu Xu knew he was having nightmares and still stayed with him.

He didn’t know how long Lu Xu had watched him for, and he didn’t know what Lu Xu had been thinking at the time. He just knew that just having him there to silently accompany him while he was having nightmares was enough.

“Thank you for being here.” Ji Xiunian was getting emotional, his emotions a bit complicated but also sweet. He didn’t even know how to describe it.

“Eh, it’s nothing.” As Lu Xu talked, he saw a new order come in through his app, and he hurriedly got up. “Nian ge, I’ll use the bathroom first.”

“Mn mn, go head.” Seeing Lu Xu rush into the bathroom like that, Ji Xiunian couldn’t help but chuckle.

People who were cute could do anything and would still be cute. They were cute when they smiled, they were cute when they talked, they were cute even when they were rushing to the bathroom.

Ji Xiunian had a smile on his face that he didn’t even know was there, and it was slowly getting wider.

He patted Ba Mei on the head, thinking that the current situation wasn’t bad at all.

It had been a totally ordinary night, but because Lu Xu and Ba Mei were here, he felt fulfilled—

If the rest of his days were like this, it would be pretty nice.

Happy year of the tiger!
