Chapter 271 Offerings (34)
Lake looked down at the boy's sad and depressed face, and joked in a prank: "Cry?"
"without."
Xiang Qi responded faintly. The serious illness was just recovering, and his depression made him look very fragile. Lake couldn't help but feel compassionate and persuaded him kindly: "Miss Xiaoya is lively and cute, and it's normal for one or two men to treat her well. Besides, you are both born to the same parents, with good genes. If you wait for the imprisonment spell on him for a while, you will definitely be as smart and beautiful as you when you grow up, and the men who pursue her are even more eager to do so. Wouldn't it be very hard for you to care about it all at that time?"
He had thought about what Lake said before, but he was sad, but he was not emotional.
Xiang Qi was really unwilling to continue this topic, so he simply closed his eyes. Lake was tactful, and seeing him like this, he had to sigh and stop.
The two were silent for a while, and Xiang Qi suddenly asked about the fourth round of the game. Lake told him that after Gao Chensheng took away Kronos's divine power from him, he was blind and returned to Tanzan City for recuperation. However, his spiritual sense was eroded by Kronos's anger, resulting in a major change in temperament. He committed a major destruction and massacre in Tanzan City. If Charlotte had not stopped it in time, Tanzan City would have probably become hell.
The pass-through match of the examination room in Tanzan City Gladiator could not be performed as scheduled, but the delay time was far from Xiang Qi's coma, so at this time, except for Xiang Qi and Gao Chensheng's last group of matches, the other groups had already ended.
"Has our game been cancelled?" This is the question that Xiang Qi is concerned about.
"Not yet. Neither side announced their withdrawal. It seems that Cardo means that you will postpone it indefinitely. However, you can't participate in this state now, right?"
"A contest between two constellations is the scene you have been planning and trying to witness for many years? Surviving the fittest, selecting the constellations that are most likely to become the dependent on the Cronos spirit."
The most important thing is that he has agreed with Gao Chensheng that if he wins this game, the other party will tell him all the answers to all the questions, including the secrets that Lake deliberately concealed.
To be honest, Xiang Qi still has Cronos's soul hidden in his body. Although his divine power has been taken away, his consciousness is still there. For him, this consciousness is like a time bomb that may take his life and his companions at any time, so he must find a way to clear it. But the current situation is something that Lake is happy to see. His purpose is to capture Cronos and detain him back to the abyss of Taltarus. Xiang Qi understands that he is just a trap used by the other party to lure Cronos, like a mousetrap or a wild boar clip. Therefore, the information that Lake can let him know is relatively "safety information", and there may be the truth that he really wants to know.
"I know I'm sure I'm sure I'm going to lose, but I still have to compare? It's meaningless to do so."
Although Xiang Qi lost all his power at this time, Gao Chensheng's power increased sharply because he absorbed Cronos's divine power. There was no suspense in the outcome of this game. However, this was the only opportunity for him to get in touch with the truth. He knew that he could not do it, in addition to gambling his life, there was another purpose - that is, to win Lake's sympathy and see if he could actively reveal some of the sealed content in his memory. To put it bluntly, it was to give Lake a bitter plan.
"I have many symbiosis curse connections between Gao Chensheng and Xiaoya. The power between the three of them is shared. It is too early to draw a conclusion now."
Indeed, Xiang Qi's thoughts were clear and Lake said in a daze: "Those hidden truths... will only make you suffer. Anyway, you can't change the final result. It's better not to know it if you know it."
"Anyway, I think I have the right to know. Now, are you willing to confess to me?"
Lake's lips twitched, and he struggled for a long time. Finally, he smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "That moment is hell for me, and it can be pushed for a while... Sorry, Xiaoqi, I'm really sorry."
"It doesn't matter, maybe you have your difficulties, I will dig out the truth myself." The boy's face, which had always been paralyzed, smiled very rarely. Although it was bright and shiny, it showed a trace of imperceptible calculations. "But, if you really feel sorry, please compensate me."
Lake glanced at Xiang Qi, but the boy's face was too dazzling. He quickly looked away and asked, "What do you want me to do for you?"
"I hope you can stay with me before Kronos's soul is cleared from me, and you know..."
Lake was trembling all over. Before Xiangqi could finish his words, he rushed over. He held the boy's arms tightly with both hands, trembling with excitement. His tone was filled with unconcealed ecstasy and unbelievable suspicion, "Are you willing to accept me? Are you really willing to stay by my side in the future?"
Xiang Qi saw a eager desire in the other party's eyes, which was the look that only appeared when looking at the opposite sex. He was shocked and hurriedly said, "I don't mean that." He raised his arm and leaned across the two of them and said, "Listen to me, you also know that Cronos's soul is still lurking on me. I may still be unable to control myself from hurting the people around me like last time. With your strength, you should not be hurt by me, and can also stop me from hurting others. So I want you to look at me for the time being before the soul leaves."
"I mean that, it's always been." Lake grabbed Xiang Qi's wrist, which was crossed in front of his chest, and kissed him on the back of his fingers and hands. "Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi... You don't know how painful it is to be with you peacefully. It's torture for me to be jealous and not to let him touch it. I don't have that confidence."
"Let go, don't go too far!" Xiang Qi was angry and tried his best to pull back his hand. When he pulled it, he pulled the wound to his chest. He suddenly felt so painful that his whole body was shaking, and he was sweating coldly. "I touched my wound, you can get up!"
Lake seemed a little panicked and clumsy at this time, and got up from Xiang Qi, as if he was at a loss as a child who had made a mistake.
Xiang Qi waited for the pain to recover and calmed down before he said, "Can we be together before? And you said you don't lack a bedmate, right? Besides, I was a constellation targeted by Cronos. Is it because of this that I personally monitored by you, Hades, a god with a noble status? Why? Now that I have something to ask you, you have hanged up and sold it?"
"Xiaoqi, what do you think of me?"
Lake's expression was serious and he could not tolerate perfunctory excuses.
Xiang Qi had to answer seriously: "You have your position and responsibility, which I can understand in general. After all, if you want to resent, you can only resent my own destiny. Who said that I am one of the five rare adaptors among billions of human beings? Who said that I was targeted among these five constellations?"
"No, I'm not asking this." Lake interrupted Xiang Qi, grabbed the boy's hands and pressed it to the pillow, and said, "I want to know what kind of person I am in your mind. As a man, I really don't have any charm at all?"
Xiang Qicheng's eyes fell on the other person's face, looked and examined. Objectively speaking, this is a god with noble status, strong strength, strong figure and handsome appearance. Even if they are both men, it is difficult not to be attracted by such an outstanding person.
Xiang Qi didn't say anything for a long time, and Lake asked, "You like me, right?"
"Well, I said..." Xiang Qi was wondering how to avoid hurting people, "If I were a woman, it should be."
"This has nothing to do with your gender! You have liked me. I know that three years ago, you have been very interested in me since you met me at the audio-visual store near your school. You followed me and asked a private detective to investigate me," Lake said with a wry smile, regretting: "It's just that I was too arrogant and trusted in my charm at that time. I kept hanging you, thinking that as long as I smiled at you casually and hooked my fingers, you would run over like a puppy. As a result, as soon as the little girl appeared, your soul was hooked away."
"What! I said I didn't mean to you. I was just curious about the aura on you, a different aura from that of humans, that's all."
Lake sat down on the single sand with his hands on his head, looking at the boy in disappointment without saying a word.
Xiang Qi looked directly at Lake and said sincerely: "Although I don't have love for you, I think you are a person you can trust and rely on. Can you look at me? I don't want to be controlled by Cronos, and I don't want to hurt my family and friends anymore. Please."
"I have no reason to refuse you in public or private matters, and I am very happy to say my heart, no matter what purpose you are asking me to stay by your side."
