On how to avoid being cannon fodder

Ji Wenyuan opened the door and saw that Han Yanghao was still sitting at the dining table.He was a little surprised and asked strangely, "Why are you still here?"

Han Yanghao propped his chin, stared at Ji Wenyuan and said, "Because I'm waiting for you."

After changing his shoes, Ji Wenyuan entered the room and sat down next to Han Yanghao, took a sip from his water glass, "What happened? Why didn't you call me?"

Han Yanghao said blankly, "To observe your expression."

Ji Wenyuan said dumbly: "Then there is nothing to observe."

Han Yanghao: "I like you."

Ji Wenyuan was stunned: "What did you say?"

Han Yanghao pursed his lips, with a serious expression as if he was giving an academic report: "I like you, can you accept homosexuality?"

Ji Wenyuan looked at him silently, neither nodding nor shaking his head, as if silently refusing.

Han Yanghao and him stared at each other for more than ten minutes, and finally looked away first, stood up and said in a calm tone: "If you don't speak, I will treat you as the default. Now that the words have been spoken, then I will not Give up easily. From tomorrow, I will start pursuing you, please be mentally prepared."

Sitting on a chair, Ji Wenyuan watched Han Yanghao go out the door, and watched his figure disappear behind the closed door again.Ji Wenyuan withdrew his gaze, staring at his blurred reflection in the water glass.

Han Yanghao's confession seemed abrupt, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt it was reasonable.Ji Wenyuan's EQ is not very low, and he has realized that Han Yanghao treats him differently after spending time together.Even pushing forward, Han Yanghao's attitude towards him before the end of the world was a little too close.

He had long been vaguely aware of the abnormality, but he had always pretended not to know.

Growing up in the Norman Empire, he certainly didn't care whether his partner was a man or a woman.In a place where genetic technology has been researched to a very high level, marriage is no longer the only way to pass on to the next generation. If you don’t want to get married but want to have a child, you can apply for a clone or go to a genetic research institute Adopt a child, and your partner, as long as he has spiritual power, even a beetle can successfully register in the marriage system.Having spent the first 600 years of his life in such an environment, Ji Wenyuan's only request for a partner is whether he likes it or not.

What really made him silent was that he suddenly remembered the woman he had seen in the headquarters of the Origin Alliance.

She fell in love with the aborigines of the small world, and one can imagine what a wonderful life she has spent.But when her partner came to the end of her life, only the Awakened with a near-endless lifespan was left to taste loneliness alone in this world.The awakened are existences at the same level as the world, and their power has similar magical effects to the world.After the death of their lover, they can of course use Yuanli to forcibly preserve their souls, but what's the point of that?The soul of a non-awakened person is too weak, once it leaves the protection of the source force, it will collapse, and the awakened person can only bring him by his side all the time.

But if so, how long can this unequal love last?

Ghana Pika once said that if an awakened person wants to find a partner, it is best to find an awakened person, unless you can guarantee that you will not have true feelings for your partner.

Ji Wenyuan knew that he had a lot of affection for Han Yanghao, otherwise he would definitely reject Han Yanghao just like he rejected Pei Xiu.But this kind of liking is not deep enough to make him desperate.He knew that it was impossible for him to find a partner without being so scumbag, so if he fell in love with someone who was destined not to be with him for a long time, it would be a disaster no less than obliterating his faith.

Before he knew he was the Awakened, there was a time when he panicked at the realization that he would not be able to protect the Norman Empire forever.At that time, the Norman Empire was his belief. For it, he was willing to pay any price. When he thought that he could no longer protect it, he felt so depressed that he couldn't breathe.

It took him a full 20 years to erase his beliefs bit by bit, so that he could calmly face the approaching end of his life.

As the guardian of the empire, Ji Wenyuan didn't let anyone notice his abnormality, but he himself clearly remembered that feeling.

The kind of pain that people will never forget.

He didn't know if Han Yanghao was an awakened one, it would be obvious only after he died.It is true that Han Yanghao helped destroy the plot, but whether one can become an awakened person depends not only on this point—whether the soul is strong enough, whether it resists the hint of the will of the world... Countless prerequisites make the birth of an awakened person extremely difficult, if not In this way, there will not be less than [-] members in the alliance until now.

Ji Wenyuan didn't know what to do, this was the first time since he left the Norman Empire that he felt so at a loss.

……

Han Yanghao walked out of the building, and looked back at Ji Wenyuan's floor again.He didn't intend to break it.In fact, the current state of life is enough for him, and there is nothing wrong with living like this forever.But what happened today made him suddenly understand that he thought so, but Ji Wenyuan didn't necessarily think so.

Ji Wenyuan is good enough, there must be many people who admire him.No one can guarantee that he will not fall in love with others in the pursuit of others.Han Yanghao can accept the seemingly innocent friendship like this for a lifetime, but he absolutely can't bear to watch Ji Wenyuan interact with other people happily like a true pure friend.Therefore, he would rather risk the risk of being cut off to confess, no matter whether the result is rejection or acceptance, he must do so.

But Ji Wenyuan's attitude surprised him very much.

Han Yanghao was already prepared to face the worst situation. It would be best if Ji Wenyuan could agree. If he firmly resisted, then Han Yanghao could get out as soon as possible.He is not the kind of character who loves to death easily. If things cannot be done, he believes that he can live well by himself.

However, Ji Wenyuan's performance neither directly refused nor seemed to want to agree.It was the first time for Han Yanghao to see Ji Wenyuan's eyes so deep, and the expression in his dark pupils was unpredictable. At that moment, he suddenly felt a huge pressure that was almost suffocating.

Han Yanghao suddenly felt that he hadn't fully understood Ji Wenyuan at all.He wasn't afraid, but felt that he liked Ji Wenyuan even more.He has always believed that only this kind of strong enough person has the ability to go on with him all the time.Ji Wenyuan is undoubtedly the perfect candidate.

He didn't know why Ji Wenyuan was silent, but at least it wasn't a rejection, wasn't it?

Han Yanghao looked away, and called his assistant: "Little Li, help me order a bouquet of red roses to Room xxx, No. xxx, xx Road. I want to chase someone."

Assistant Xiao Li was taken aback: "Dean, is that the exclusive community for government officials? Are you looking for the daughter of a high-ranking official?"

Thinking of Ji Wenyuan's attitude just now, Han Yanghao was a little annoyed, and hung up the phone after saying "Don't ask so many questions".

……

In the evening, Ji Wenyuan suddenly received a call from Huo Kun.

"Mu Wei, hurry to Nanning City, there is a level [-] beast!" Huo Kun's anxious voice came.

Ji Wenyuan responded and hung up the phone.Currently the most advanced abilities are Pei Xiu and Ji Wenyuan, both of whom are at the seventh level.But after a couple of years of understanding, everyone realized that Pei Xiu's combat power was much worse than Ji Wenyuan's, so they would always look for Ji Wenyuan in any danger.In order to appease Ji Wenyuan, a high-level supernatural being, to work for them, they assigned Ji Wenyuan the post of Minister of Defense.In fact, this position has no real power. Apart from the very good salary and benefits, he has no say in the army or the government.

But this is completely irrelevant to Ji Wenyuan, he didn't want to be an official anymore, besides, no matter how much power in this world is, it can't compare with his own power.

He immediately packed up his things and prepared to go out, and wrote a note to stick on the door telling Han Yanghao that there was no way for him to eat dinner tonight, but he stopped before the note was posted on the door.

In fact, it is better not to tell Han Yanghao.

If Han Yanghao came here at night and found that he had disappeared without a word, maybe he would give up on his own.And if Han Yanghao gave up by himself, then he doesn't have to worry about it, does he?

Ji Wenyuan hesitated for two seconds, but still did not destroy the note, but pressed it under the vase at the door.

"Crack."

The door was locked, and the room was empty again.

……

In the evening, Han Yanghao knocked on the door of Ji Wenyuan's house for a long time, but no one came to open the door.His face darkened, and he directly took out the spare key Ji Wenyuan gave him to open the door and go in.

The room was pitch black, and there was no one in sight.

Han Yanghao had a gloomy look in his dark pupils, he stood holding the door frame for a long time before he slowly calmed down his leaked emotions and returned to his usual gentle look.He carefully looked at every place in the room - this is wrong, Ji Wenyuan didn't directly refuse, he probably wouldn't cut off contact with him by leaving directly.

Finally, his eyes settled on the vase at the door.

Han Yanghao has an excellent memory, and Ji Wenyuan's house is a place he has been to countless times. He can draw the exact location and direction of everything here almost by memory alone.And there was only this vase in the room, and the direction of the pattern was changed without any need to move it.

Han Yanghao bent down to pick up the vase, and immediately saw a piece of paper folded into four layers.His expression relaxed, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes. He picked up the note urgently and opened it, and saw Ji Wenyuan's handwriting: I went to Nanning City to perform a mission, and I won't be here tonight.

The corners of Han Yanghao's mouth rose slightly, his eyes narrowed and he muttered to himself: "Mu Wei, why are you still hesitating? You don't want to break up with me, do you?"

He refolded the note, carefully put it in his breast pocket, closed the door and walked out of the building without looking back.
