Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder Survival Manual: Saving the Villain

For the first time, Zhong Lanzhang felt the urge to open his heart, so he took the initiative to make an appointment with An Mucheng to meet and chat with him.

Zhong Lanzhang just had the urge to open his heart, but he had no intention of really confessing himself, so he just tried to treat An Mucheng as his friend, his only friend.

Unfortunately, he underestimated the consequences of keeping his heart closed for a long time.

He is like a tortoise who can only live in his own shell all his life and can never take the initiative to take a step forward.

An Mucheng didn't have so many concerns. He had already guessed that Zhong Lanzhang was a demon when he changed to his fourth alias. Now that he knew he was right, An Mucheng was ready to launch an offensive.

Yes, that's right, he likes Zhong Lanzhang.

At first, I liked his writing style and every character he wrote. Then, I gradually and lastingly fell in love with the author himself, and I was even more attracted to him after meeting him.

Even though Zhong Lanzhang's personality was the type that was out of reach, he was determined to ask him out every few days and always prepared various little surprises.

It’s a pity that for three long years, they were unable to make any further progress.

An Mucheng never gave up and remained as enthusiastic as at the beginning. But until the fourth year, Zhong Lanzhang thought of his childhood experiences.

The human captured him and tamed him, and he and the hunter stayed together for three full years.

But in the fourth year, when he transformed in front of the hunter, the hunter simply chose to abandon him and even planned to send him to the evil research base...

In order to maintain a warm smile in the years that followed, he took the initiative to seal these experiences from his childhood deep in his memory.

Because I haven't tried to socialize normally over the years, this has never been broken, but now...

The 4th year... It's the 4th year again...

He previously treated that human as his master, as someone he could rely on. Now, in his eyes, An Mucheng was also someone he wanted to rely on, not only because An Mucheng was his fan, but also because he had a crush on him...

Zhong Lanzhang felt painful, so he chose to avoid it.

He didn't tell An Mucheng why he was avoiding him, but he never replied to his private messages and messages, and never met him again.

However, An Mucheng is a wolf demon who appears to be fierce but is actually quite honest. He really likes Zhong Lanzhang so much that he can tolerate any choice Zhong Lanzhang makes infinitely.

He only asked once on the private message page to avoid the question. After Zhong Lanzhang did not reply, he greeted her every day as usual.

Although there was still no reply, in An Mucheng's eyes it was just like the 100 years before he met Zhong Lanzhang.

It doesn’t matter if there is no response, as long as he knows that he loves.

……

Since Zhong Lanzhang consciously avoided An Mucheng, he walked out of his residence and began to travel around.

After traveling, he still wrote novels, and An Mucheng still sent him private messages. Although he would read them, he never replied.

Gradually, when he was almost two hundred years old, Zhong Lanzhang was flying around in the form of an eagle and accidentally saw a cat that was about to be eaten by a snake.

For some unknown reason, Zhong Lanzhang rescued the beautiful cat.

Maybe... it's just because the cat is so cute.

After rescuing the cat, Zhong Lanzhang originally had no intention of continuing to take care of him. Unexpectedly, the kitten became obsessed with him and secretly caught mice and placed them outside his residence several times.

Zhong Lanzhang refused twice, but Shen Yingjin still persisted in sending him mice. Zhong Lanzhang was a little helpless, but no longer refused and silently accepted the mice.

Zhong Lanzhang decided to protect this kitten in the future. After all, he was very strong and it was just a kitten, so he could still do it.

A few years passed, and Zhong Lanzhang and Shen Yingjin gradually became familiar with each other. He kept the cat named Shen Yingjin by his side, often took care of him, and brought him some delicious canned cat food from outside.

Sometimes Zhong Lanzhang would stare at Shen Maomao in a daze, always wondering what the situation would be like between him and An Mucheng now if he had not avoided An Mucheng in the first place.

But... Zhong Lanzhang knew very well that the relationship between him and Shen Yingjin was different from that between him and An Mucheng.

In Zhong Lanzhang's eyes, Shen Maomao is his junior, the cub he raised. Shen Maomao is also very sensible and will not ask about his past.

But An Mucheng is different. Zhong Lanzhang likes An Mucheng a little, which means that they may develop into a relationship in the future.

There shouldn't be too many secrets between people who love each other...

In fact, what Zhong Lanzhang feared most was not that the secret would be exposed, but that one day in the future, An Mucheng would abandon him after being with him...

But after so long, An Mucheng still sent him private messages every day. Zhong Lanzhang's inner thoughts were somewhat shaken, and sometimes he even wanted to try to believe An Mucheng.

However, every time Zhong Lanzhang put his finger on the chat box, he didn’t know what to type, and it would always end up in nothing.

Shen Yingjin transformed when she was in her twenties. Although she was not as talented as the gifted Zhong Lanzhang, she was also one of the more talented ones in the world of spirits.

One day, Zhong Lanzhang discovered that the cub he had raised was actually with a human.

Zhong Lanzhang instinctively resisted this, not wanting the cat he raised to experience the feeling of being abandoned by humans.

It is very painful to be hurt by someone you depend on.

But later, after personal verification, Zhong Lanzhang discovered that the human being was most likely truly in love with Xiao Jin.

After returning to his residence that night, Zhong Lanzhang tossed and turned in bed, holding his cell phone and wanting to reply to An Mucheng.

After seeing what happened between Shen Yingjin and Lin Yufeng, he felt that his previous views on human beings might have been too one-sided.

But it is really difficult to get over being hurt, not to mention that he has allowed himself to remain like this for more than 200 years. Even now, he still cannot take the initiative to take that step.

He held his phone and looked at their chat page, and stayed awake all night.

In the days that followed, Zhong Lanzhang continued to lead his life as usual, but he was tormented in his heart over whether he should try to get along with An Mucheng again.

One day, Xiao Jin brought him what An Mucheng said.

...An Mucheng wanted to see him.

Zhong Lanzhang suffered another sleepless night, so he finally made up his mind to reply to the message the next morning.

[Long Night: Management Center, let’s meet.]

Chang Ye is Zhong Lanzhang’s latest pen name, which he has used for 6 years.

An Mucheng replied almost immediately: [An Mucheng: OK!]

Zhong Lanzhang stared at the exclamation mark after the word for a long time.

It looks like An Mucheng is very excited?

Zhong Lanzhang was not sure either, but he was made very nervous by the exclamation mark.

After more than 30 years of separation, they met again. Their human forms didn't seem to have changed much. They were still as young and handsome as before.

During the three years they had spent together, An Mucheng already had some understanding of Zhong Lanzhang's personality, so he didn't wait for him to take the initiative. He spoke to Zhong Lanzhang in the same familiar tone as he had more than 30 years ago.

Zhong Lanzhang responded incoherently, and An Mucheng did not press him to answer questions about his sudden departure without saying goodbye more than 30 years ago.

As a result, his nervous mood gradually eased.

The two of them just drank coffee in the cafe in the management center and chatted briefly about daily life.

After the chat, Zhong Lanzhang thought about it and said to An Mucheng seriously, "I'm sorry."

...He shouldn't deny all human beings and all emotions just because of his past experiences. Maybe he should really try to start a new journey with An Mucheng.

Therefore, Zhong Lanzhang smiled gently, without waiting for An Mucheng to answer, and just asked him softly:

"An Mucheng, I like you... I've liked you for about thirty years. Are you willing to try it with me?"

Zhong Lanzhang asked cautiously, and after he asked, he found that An Mucheng opposite him was stunned and looked dazed.

Zhong Lanzhang was a little uncertain. He was afraid that he would just leave. He hesitated and wanted to give up.

As a result, An Mucheng stood up directly, excited like a fool: "I do! Brother, I have been waiting for this day for a long time, and I like you too! I didn't expect that brother would also..."

After An Mucheng stood up, he stamped his feet stupidly, like a shy girl, not at all like a man who was almost 200 years old.

"...It doesn't have to be so fast. I can pursue my brother. If he's satisfied, we can be together!"

Zhong Lanzhang was a little stunned. At this moment, An Mucheng's emotions came towards him. He felt the strong emotions from An Mucheng's excited words.

Then, his smile spread to the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

……

An Mucheng is enthusiastic every day when it comes to treating Zhong Lanzhang.

Therefore, after he learned the reason why Zhong Lanzhang left without saying goodbye to him last time, he insisted on maintaining the romance and pursued Zhong Lanzhang for four years, completely washing away Zhong Lanzhang's fear of being abandoned.

After that, An Mucheng quit his job at the pet hospital and decided to travel with Zhong Lanzhang.

The two of them came to Shen Yingjin together, said goodbye to him, and started to travel around the world.

……

At the foot of the snow-capped mountains in the Far North, they admired the white snow all over the mountains.

When Zhong Lanzhang saw the bare tree trunks in the distance, he was inexplicably reminded of the jungle where he had lived as a child, which had nothing to do with this place.

Feeling a little overwhelmed, with a hint of fragility and sadness, Zhong Lanzhang tilted his head and kissed An Mucheng's lips.

An Mucheng closed his eyes subconsciously. Zhong Lanzhang looked at An Mucheng's trembling eyelashes and kissed his warm lips deeply, and his mood relaxed.

He didn't want to be hurt by emotions before, but now that he is really involved in it, he finds that true love can really heal long-lasting hurts.

From now on, there will be no more deep pain in his eyes, and there will only be a smile without the slightest gloom on his face.
