Infinitely Criticizing the Villain for Being Like My Ex-Boyfriend
Chapter 38: City That Never Sleeps 38
The days in the city that never sleeps slow down.
Zhang Chunliang looked at the horizontal line he had carved on the stone slab. He had been here for more than forty days.
"Would you like to eat fish today?" Today, the third young master took him outside the city that never sleeps. In a river outside the city, they caught many strange-shaped fish.
For example, the one in the third young master's bucket looked like a ball of wool tangled in a round object. If you didn't look carefully, you would think it was a ball of hair.
Zhang Chunliang discovered that this dungeon was not limited to one city. If he wanted, he could even leave the city that never sleeps and go to other places. What would be in those places? Was it other dungeons?
"Don't go anywhere else, Liangliang." As if sensing his thoughts, the Third Young Master was a little uneasy, "Don't leave here."
The Third Young Master had never left the City That Never Sleeps, but he seemed to be able to sense something. He was extremely anxious about Zhang Chunliang's eagerness to leave, so he couldn't help biting his fingertips.
This guy has recently developed a strange habit of biting his nails when he is anxious.
The longer Zhang Chunliang spent with him, the more he realized that he was just a paper tiger. No matter what outrageous actions Zhang Chunliang took, the Third Young Master dared to be angry but dared not say anything. He could only helplessly chase after him and shout, "Liangliang, don't do this."
You used to pinch my neck with your hands. Wasn't it arrogant? You took the bug and stuffed it into my mouth. Why are you so cowardly now?
Zhang Chunliang was like a bully who had turned over a new leaf and became a landlord. Seeing that the third young master didn't dare to teach him a lesson, he became more and more arrogant.
The main reason was that life in the City That Never Sleeps was too boring. The citizens avoided them like the plague and it was impossible to communicate normally. The only person in this world who could chat with him was the Third Young Master. Over time, he became bored.
So Zhang Chunliang decided to explore this world.
He dived into the lotus pond again. The players' bodies were still there, and the Third Young Master did not kill them, but let them soak in the pond water.
Zhang Chunliang tried to find the magical creatures that caused Wang Gui to mutate, but the pond was terribly silent. Apart from the tangled lotus roots, there were only the motionless bodies of the players.
When leaving here, Zhang Chunliang accidentally bumped into a player. When he looked up at the man's face, he fell silent.
The player's body has changed. His limbs are beginning to transform into the appearance of a citizen of the City That Never Sleeps, and the outline of his facial features has clearly appeared on the back of his head.
There are many players like him who have begun to mutate.
This pond can no longer protect them; it is about to "die".
Zhang Chunliang, who broke the surface of the water, vomited water onto the ground frantically. He would inadvertently inhale some water when he dived.
When he looked up again, the Third Young Master was standing not far away, gnawing at his fingertips and staring at him blankly. After a while, he asked, "Are you eating fish today, Liangliang?"
Although the sun was still rising today, it was no longer as bright as it was a few days ago. It was hazy and seemed to be barely holding on. In other words, the sun had never been brighter since the end of the dungeon.
"Eat, let me do it." Zhang Chunliang retracted his gaze and answered in a normal tone.
The Third Young Master had already started learning how to cook. During this time, Zhang Chunliang was only focused on exploring the dungeon and rarely cooked for him, but he did not complain. He enthusiastically tried to cook different foods every day and then placed them on the dining table in an orderly manner. Sometimes, for the sake of beauty, he would carve two flowers.
"She looks more and more like a young wife," Zhang Chunliang commented.
Today, Zhang Chunliang suddenly decided to come back and cook fish for him.
"She would cook fish for me before." The third young master sat on a small stool, staring at the busy Zhang Chunliang, and spoke suddenly.
Zhang Chunliang probably knew that he was talking about his own mother, who according to legend was drowned in this pond by him.
"I wanted to save her, and later I went down to look for her many times, but she disappeared." The third young master was a little confused.
Of course, Zhang Chunliang didn't say it out loud, but complained silently in his heart. How could the Game House really let you enjoy the affection of your family? It would rather torture you to death. The mother was probably a character it deliberately designed.
I take good care of you for a few years and develop a sincere relationship with you. But in the end, your dear mother suddenly mutates into a monster that wants to eat you, forcing you to kill your mother to survive. Such a blow would drive you crazy if you don't die.
Alas, poor fellow. Zhang Chunliang felt a little pity for him, so he decided to make one less vegetarian dish today.
The third young master remained silent until all the food was served on the table.
Zhang Chunliang saw him trying to bite his fingertips several times, and finally couldn't help getting angry. He took out his nail clippers and carefully trimmed his bumpy nails. The third young master had a pair of extremely beautiful hands, especially recently he had gained some flesh, making his slender hands as smooth and delicate as jade, but unfortunately they were ruined by the ugly nails.
Zhang Chunliang restored its beauty and then rudely handed over a pair of chopsticks.
The third young master then lowered his head again and began to eat carefully.
He was very reserved when eating, using his left hand to hold his hair so it wouldn't fall into the bowl, and picking up food with his right hand, he would put some into Zhang Chunliang's bowl first, and then eat it himself. If he thought a dish was delicious, he would put more into Zhang Chunliang's bowl.
Zhang Chunliang always felt that he was a little effeminate and delicate like a girl, which was actually quite strange in a man, and some extreme people might even be disgusted by it.
Now that I think about it, he might have been imitating his mother. In his short life, no one told him how to be a person that everyone likes, but his mother was the first person he liked, and he probably thought that if he was like his mother, he would be liked.
"Is it delicious?" Zhang Chunliang asked gently when he saw the third young master finish all the food on the table.
The third young master looked up at him, then lowered his head again without saying anything.
"Is it delicious?" Zhang Chunliang asked persistently.
After a moment's silence, tears as big as beans fell down the third young master's face into the empty bowl.
"No, it's not delicious..." he choked and said in a low voice.
"Have you forgotten our three rules?" Zhang Chunliang hardened his heart and frowned fiercely, "No, you can't lie to me."
The Third Young Master cried even harder, his shoulders trembling, unable to control himself. After a while, he raised his head, revealing a pair of red eyes: "You liar."
"…Is it delicious?" Zhang Chunliang was silent for a while and asked for the third time.
The Third Young Master stared at him unwillingly, tears streaming down his cheeks. He seemed to be made of water, and soon his collar was soaked by his tears. He felt like he could no longer breathe, and all the moisture in his body was about to drain out.
But the person in front of him seemed to have a heart of stone. He just looked at him gently, with his favorite cheerful smile, waiting for his answer.
He clearly knew that he could not reject any of his decisions.
Then his already weak defense collapsed, and he shed more tears in despair, but still insisted on finishing his sentence.
"Delicious."
[According to the system, the player has completed the main quest: Make a dish that the citizens of the city who never sleep like in the "Evergreen Banquet" (1/1)
This is a mandatory task. If the task fails, 100 life points will be deducted (10/100).
