Song Xiabing held Shi Qing with one arm while his heart broke in two.

There was a common saying about how people would want to look at the person or thing they liked most before their death. After pondering on it for a while, Song Xiabing came to the conclusion that he would want to see Shi Qing in his last moments.

But now, Shi Qing was still looking at Zhou Xuanxuan even though he was on the brink of turning into a zombie.

So what if that guy’s a bit good looking?

Song Xiabing was feeling unbearably sour inside. On the other hand, Shi Qing seemed pretty perky even as his face slowly turned a pale green. He cheerfully laughed as he turned to Song Xiabing.

“Hehehehe look at Zhou Xuanxuan. Hahahaha he’s actually bald! Oh man, Laozi might just die laughing. If only those people chasing after his ass everyday could see this hehehehe.”

It was like spring had suddenly come.

Song Xiabing grasped Shi Qing’s hand and lightly kissed the man’s forehead. “Yes, he looks so ugly.”

Zhou Xuanxuan: “…”

Can you guys stop it already…

Is it my fault that I’m good looking?!

Song Xiabing’s voice was soft and gentle towards Shi Qing because he was afraid of scaring his boss. But he held no such compunctions towards Zhou Xuanxuan. He went straight to the point. “Don’t beat around the bush. Tell me how to save Boss.”

Zhou Xuanxuan: “There’s a price to pay.”

Song Xiabing couldn’t care less. “Whatever it is, I’m willing to pay it. Say what it is already, before it’s too late.”

“Then I’ll be brief. You’ll have to direct your ability to suppress the zombie virus in his body like my master did for me. However, I don’t know what’ll happen once your ability’s been sucked dry. My master’s a mutant plant but even he regressed into this state after his ability was depleted. Not to mention, you, who’s just a human.”

Shi Qing’s brows furrowed. “Sucked dry?? Isn’t that just sacrificing one life for another?”

“You can put it that way. Anyways, you don’t have much time left so decide quickly.”

Song Xiabing hugged Shi Qing tighter as he swallowed dryly.

It only took him a few seconds to make his decision. “What do I have to do?”

“It’s simple. You just have to touch the wounded area with your ability. I don’t know if you guys have noticed or not, but a phantom fox can’t be harmed by their master’s ability. You just have to continuously use your ability, that’s all.” Zhou Xuanxuan said as he carefully glanced at the green-faced Shi Qing.

“Don’t worry, Shi Qing. He might die if his ability is depleted, but you’ll be fine because he basically gave it all to you.”

So this method definitely had no downsides for Shi Qing.

After all, based on what Zhou Xuanxuan observed of these two interacting, Shi Qing was always disinterested and aloof. It was Song Xiabing who stubbornly clung to his side. The only reason Shi Qing seemed to spare his life and treat him well was because of his phantom fox physique, which would kill him if Song Xiabing died.

If Song Xiabing decided to save Shi Qing…his death was only a matter of time.

Shi Qing would survive and be freed from his shackles.

Wasn’t that what he wanted?

Although neither of them were good people, Zhou Xuanxuan preferred it if Shi Qing was the one to survive because Song Xiabing was always itching to end him.

After all, if Shi Qing died, then Song Xiabing, who treated him like the love of his life, would go insane. Then everyone would be doomed.

Zhou Xuanxuan felt that Shi Qing would definitely agree to this.

And odds were that Song Xiabing wouldn’t be able to say no to Shi Qing.

Although this guy was a vicious and brutal psychopath, he truly loved Shi Qing. There was no way he would stand by and watch his love die.

Zhou Xuanxuan looked at Shi Qing expectantly.

The man, however, scowled and shoved Song Xiabing off. “His life in exchange for Laozi’s? Then wouldn’t Laozi owe him for the rest of my life? No way.”

Zhou Xuanxuan: “…”

The fuck you saying, bro??

Why’d Shi Qing go off script before Song Xiabing even said anything??

Hasn’t he always despised Song Xiabing?

Doesn’t he value his own life above all else?

Dude, here’s your chance to be rid of Song Xiabing and regain your freedom! Why aren’t you saying yes, ah?

Song Xiabing shifted to the side after being pushed. However, his beautiful eyes remained fixated on the grumpy looking man.

He suddenly smiled.

“Boss, you’ve always despised me, right? You hated how I’ve always clung to you and forced you. You hated how you were the high and mighty Blazing Thunder boss during the day but pressed under me at night.”

“Now’s your chance.”

Song Xiabing disregarded Shi Qing’s disdainful push and went to embrace him once more. He whispered into the man’s ear, “If I die for you, you’ll remember me for the rest of your life. You will never be rid of me. Why aren’t you saying yes to such a good opportunity?”

“Fuck off!”

Shi Qing stubborning shoved him off again and furiously got to his feet. Even though he was wobbling when walking, he refused to let Song Xiabing assist him. “You think Laozi’s afraid of dying? So what if I die, I’ll die a man! Who the hell wants to owe you a damn favour forever.”

The young man looked at him with brightening eyes. He seemed to be crying, but they were tears of joy.

You like me.

“You like me.” he said with certainty.

“Bullshit!”

“We’re both men! I would rather fall in love with a pig than you! Now fuck off already!”

Song Xiabing’s eyes were rimmed with red, but there was a content smile on his face. He stepped forward and took Shi Qing’s arm, cautiously stating, “Boss, why would you chase me away if you don’t like me? You only spared my life before because I’m the master of the phantom fox, right? But now you’re dying and I’m the only one who can save you.”

“Laozi just wants to die in peace, okay?! Is that too much to ask?!!” The furious man attempted to shake off his hand.

But Song Xiabing only grabbed tighter onto his arm. He poured his ability into the wound, which sucked the energy in almost greedily.

A flash of panic appeared in the Blazing Thunder boss’s eyes. He tried frantically to shake off Song Xiabing’s hand. “Get away from me! Who the fuck asked you to save me?! I would rather die than be pressed under you for the rest of my life!”

But how could his strength be greater than Song Xiabing’s?

The young man held onto him with a death grip and slightly reddened eyes which only made him appear more charming. With bright eyes, he looked steadily into Shi Qing’s.

I love you.

“Boss, I’m dying, I’m really dying. Before I go, can you say you love me, that you like me?”

“Fuck off you lunatic! Zhou Xuanxuan, you sack of shit, get over here and pull him off me!”

Zhou Xuanxuan held onto his vine and carefully hid off to the side. He smirked sarcastically. “Boss, just let him die if he wants to so badly. It’s not like anyone’s forcing him to let you live.”

Shi Qing was so enraged that he almost went over to kick the guy.

But Zhou Xuanxuan just smiled and held onto his vine. “Boss, since you two have time right now, why don’t I tell you about the story of my master and I? I met my master on a dark and windy night. At the time, it was a vine of above average size, maybe as tall as a ten story building? It saw my tail even though it didn’t have eyes. That’s how its ability stopped working on me.”

“Then! Then I started living on my master’s body after I discovered that fact. I lived eating its fruits and drinking the dew that collected on its leaves. I even made a treehouse eventually. I could sense how it abhorred me and wanted me gone, but it couldn’t do anything because its ability didn’t work on me. One day, I saved a human. He had been bitten by a zombie but hid that from me. That’s how I got bit.”

“And now, the moment of truth! Surprisingly, the vine who had always despised me saved me then. As I watched it shrink from that massive height down to this, I swore that I would be with it for the rest of my life. Even if it doesn’t have a dick or eyes or nose or mouth, even if I don’t even know its gender…none of that matters.”

After saying all this to his less than enthused audience, Zhou Xuanxuan looked at the guy who always tried to chase people away but refused to let him sacrifice his life to save him and the other guy who never took no for an answer.

A sudden realization made him widen his eyes.

“Fuck, aren’t you guys the same as my master and I?!”

“My master always despised me, but it still sacrificed itself to save me at the last moment. Shi Qing, you’ve always despised Song Xiabing too, but you still won’t let him sacrifice himself to save you in your last moments.”

“You two… So you were actually…”

He pointed a shaking finger at them like he just learned a lion had fallen in love with a shark.

“You’re actually in love with each other?!”

Song Xiabing, who was gritting his teeth and outputting his ability, turned to give Zhou Xuanxuan a look.

It was the first time his gaze had been so friendly.

On the other hand, the Blazing Thunder boss looked like he was about to explode.

“Who the fuck is in love with him?! Laozi just doesn’t want to owe him anything!”

Zhou Xuanxuan: “But you’ll die if you don’t let him save you. That’s not really a favour, is it?”

Shi Qing: “…”

He took a deep breath and looked up at Song Xiabing, saying through gritted teeth, “Make him fuck off.”

Song Xiabing immediately turned to stare at Zhou Xuanxuan.

Zhou Xuanxuan: “…”

Fine. I’m outta here.

It seemed like staying here much longer was inadvisable. Zhou Xuanxuan originally wanted to hug Shi Qing’s thigh after his ability recovered, but now the man had happily hooked up with Song Xiabing.

Wait…then hasn’t he been encouraging Shi Qing’s lover to kill himself this whole time??

Zhou Xuanxuan: “…..”

This world, ah. It’s so hard to understand sometimes.

“Um, okay… Since you don’t want him to die then I’ll take back what I just said. Shi Qing, if you want Song Xiabing to live, you just have to transfer your ability over to him. You might temporarily lose your ability like me, but you’ll both live in the end. Bye bye.”

Song Xiabing continued to steadily transfer his ability to Shi Qing’s wound.

When he saw the scowling man raise a hand, his lips quirked up. “Boss, if you save me, you’ll never be rid of me in this life. I’ll think that you like me too.”

“Fuck you, you blabbermouth. How many times does Laozi have to tell you that I’m straight?! I just don’t want to owe you one.” The Blazing Thunder boss cursed and cursed as he sent his ability into Song Xiabing’s body.

Song Xiabing looked at him steadily.

His eyes shone brightly as he revealed a soft, cheerful smile. [Ding! Song Xiabing’s animosity value: 0/100]

Yes, I know the boss is straight.

But finally, after all this time…

This straight guy likes me back.
