I Rely on Kisses to Clear Survival Games

Cheng Zhi Chu glanced over at Bai Yis stoic expression and felt very awkward.

Gu Zhen had said that he couldnt possibly like Bai Yi - He had also thought that this was the case. How could he like another man?!

But at this moment, he suddenly realised in horror that his heart was swaying. When he recalled his kiss with Bai Yi, he felt his heart race. Earlier when he kissed the bosss, he had never felt this way.

Moreover, Bai Yis face itself was already very good looking but when he looked at Bai Yi now it was like he had a filter over his eyes. He could only think that he was just too handsome to the point that he couldnt look away and even wanted to look at him longer.

Could it be that towards Bai Yi he.Towards Bai Yi

Cheng Zhi Chus mind was a mess. He subconsciously tried to deny this thought but the moment he realised that his feelings for Bai Yi had changed, he could no longer stop the thoughts in his mind.

In his mind he started to recall the times that he had spent with Bai Yi; their first encounter, Bai Yis smile directed at him, those affectionate gazes and touches, the embraces that made him feel like he was melting, and the low, magnetic voice that called his name

[Zhi Chu.]

.

Cheng Zhi Chu quickly lowered his head and used the darkness of the night to hide his reddening cheeks.

Even just imagining Bai Yi calling out his name made his heart flutter. From inside, he felt himself becoming filled with a sour and sweet sensation.

.Oh no.

He may really have fallen for Bai Yi.

Is it your business?

However, after hearing Gu Zhens question and falling silent for a moment, Bai Yi suddenly lifted the corners of his lips. On his handsome features were a hint of mocking.

This is Zhi Chu and my business. It has nothing to do with you.

I like Cheng Cheng. Of course, I would ask those who are close to hi

Gu Zhen stopped halfway through his words.

He had been paying attention to Zhi Chu, so he naturally also noticed the changes in his mood. Although it was dark and he couldnt see clearly, he still noticed that Cheng Zhi Chu was feeling embarrassed and shy.

This was something that he had never seen from Cheng Zhi Chu.

Gu Zhens mood instantly plummeted.

He became silent. With his eyes lowered and his lips tight, sharp pain filled his heart. A part of the emotions that he had repressed inside shattered and a crack appeared on his face.

Bai Yi raised his eyebrow. Although he didnt expect Gu Zhen to suddenly stop speaking, he naturally wouldnt ask about it. After all, if he could, he just wanted to kill Gu Zhen immediately and make him completely disappear from Zhi Chus side.

However, after knowing that Gu Zhen was Shen Zhou, he had to give up that idea for the time being.

It wasnt because he couldnt kill Gu Zhen and he didnt care about the possible retaliation from the Ultimate Alliance that Gu Zhen covered. Since Gu Zhen is a top player, he wouldnt be able to quietly kill Gu Zhen off. At that time, Zhi Chu would definitely suspect something.

If not for Zhi Chu being here..

A flash of darkness passed through Bai Yis eyes but when he looked down at Cheng Zhi Chu, he immediately suppressed the dark and violent emotions away. He called him gently:

Zhi Chu?

Ah.Yes?

Cheng Zhi Chu looked up in surprise at Bai Yi. He was completely immersed in his own world earlier and was not paying attention to what the others were saying.

At this moment his eyes met Bai Yis. Cheng Zhi Chu who had only just confirmed that he liked him felt his heart skip a beat and he couldnt help but move away his line of sight and look into the darkness to hide is reddening face.

No, he cant let Bai Yi find out that he had shamelessly fallen for him. Although Bai Yi has been very good to him and was very tolerant of him, it was only because they are good friends. He shouldnt let it get to his head.

Not long ago, he had firmly believed that Bai Yi was like him and both of them are very straight men - Although it looks like he had been completely bent. Bai Yi had also kissed him several times and didnt appear to be too repulsed by it but, even if Bai Yi wasnt completely straight, it didnt mean that Bai Yi would like him.

And he also hasnt forgotten about Bai Yis ID, One Thought, thinking of only one person.

Thinking this, Cheng Zhi Chu couldnt help but feel uncomfortable inside. Although Bai Yi didnt explicitly admit that his ID meant that he had someone that he liked, but what if? If Bai Yi already has someone that he likes, then he.

Based on his understanding of Bai Yi, Bai Yi must be someone who is very loyal. If he really did have someone that he liked and he was to suddenly confess to him, he would probably not only be rejected, he might not even be able to continue being his friend.

But Cheng Zhi Chu didnt want to hide away from his feelings towards Bai Yi. In the past he didnt have those thoughts towards Gu Zhen who was still playing the role of a senior sister because he had stopped himself before the feelings even sprouted. But this time his feelings towards Bai Yi is an established fact. Regardless of the outcome, he wanted to try and let Bai Yi accept him.

Of course, before that he would need to consolidate his position in Bai Yis heart and strive to let Bai Yi see his strengths to ensure that even if he is rejected after confessing, Bai Yi would be reluctant to cut off all relations with him. Like this, they could at least still be friends.

Moreover, he needed to ascertain whether or not there is someone that Bai Yi likes. If there really is someone, something like stealing him away was something that he couldnt do so he would probably just stay quiet

In any case, he shouldnt let Bai Yi see his ulterior motives right now. He should act normal in front of Bai Yi!

Cheng Zhi Chu gathered his courage and turned to look back at Bai Yi. The moment their eyes met, he couldnt help but feel his heart start racing again and he could only look away again.

Fuck, he still hasnt adapted to it yet..

His avoiding behaviours were noticed by Bai Yi causing Bai Yi to raise his eyebrows in surprise. He started to involuntarily guess the reason behind Cheng Zhi Chus abnormal behaviour.

Could it be because Gu Zhens words made Zhi Chu suddenly doubt him? If Zhi Chu was avoiding him because Zhi Chu found out about his secret feelings towards him, then he

Bai Yis heart sank. He looked over at Gu Zhen and his eyes were filled with disdain. At this moment Gu Zhen was also feeling frustrated. Facing Bai Yis sharp gaze, he also had no intention to back down. Very quickly, the atmosphere got uncomfortable.

Yang Qian Fan felt very uncomfortable. To ease the situation, he didnt spend much time to think and just wanted to say something. And such, he spoke without thinking:

Mr Zhi Chu, why did you kiss Su Ling earlier? He then disappeared and we cleared the instance early. Did it have something to do with your actions?

..

The air around them became even more stagnant.

Yang Qian Fans face went pale.

Oh no. He seemed to have asked something that he shouldnt have.

Cheng Zhi Chus expression also changed - That right, he had always been kissing Bosses in front of Bai Yi. Although Bai Yi knows of his ability, if he kissed others while having feelings for Bai Yi what qualifications does he have to confess to Bai Yi!

Thatindeed is related to me.

He opened his mouth and answered awkwardly while secretly glancing over at Bai Yi. He hesitantly said: You can just take it as having something to do with my ability.

Ki-kissing can have something to do with abilities?

Yang Qian Fan widened his eyes and revealed a shocked expression.

Something to do with abilities? Gu Zhen frowned. His expression turned even more dark.

Cheng Zhi Chu didnt explain specifically so he didnt know what Cheng Zhi Chus ability was. It may not be directly related to kissing but rather related to satisfying the ghosts wishes. For Su Ling who had secret feelings for Cheng Zhi Chu, a kiss was an understandable wish.

He naturally didnt think that Cheng Zhi Chus ability was something as ridiculous as kissing to clear the instance but when he found out about the reason behind Cheng Zhi Chus move to actively kiss Su Ling, Gu Zhen still wasnt happy. After all, this didnt get rid of the fact that Cheng Zhi Chus attitude towards Bai Yi was different.

Yang Qian Fan saw his uncles expression and couldnt help but tremble. He wanted to atone for his mistakes so he pulled at Cheng Zhi Chus clothes and tilted his head up: Mr Zhi Chu, Can I add you as a friend in the forum? My ID is Thousand Sails.

Ah, ye..

Cheng Zhi Chu had a pretty good impression of Yang Qian Fan and he didnt think much of his relationship with Gu Zhen. He was just about to agree but, now that the game forum was suddenly mentioned, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten about something that had happened just before he entered the instance.

Winter Branch..

This ghost who took the identity of Winter Branch had appeared in reality and had even said that he is waiting for him at his university..

His face suddenly became pale, beads of sweat formed across his forehead and his body started trembling.

Whats wrong Mr Zhi Chu?

Yang Qian Fan saw that his expression didnt seem quite right, and he asked anxiously: Is it that difficult for you to add me as a friend.

No Cheng Zhi Chu smiled with much difficulty. He shook his head and said: I just thought of something else. You can add me as a friend, no problem.

Having said that, more cold sweat formed on his face.

Although he had experienced a reality instance before, Winter Branch had not initiated a reality instance so he didnt know whether he could deal with him the way he could deal with a boss in an instance. Furthermore, the way he had revealed himself was extremely shocking, so he was very scared.

Its okay, dont be scared. This time there is a special item that can help you.]

The system suddenly spoke up: You will receive a special reward for completing the side task of attending class. If you take it out later and do as I say, it would definitely help get you out of trouble.]

But this reward is a little special.You have to wait until the three of them leave before taking it out or it will be very troublesome.]

Thank goodness. Theres still a solution..

Cheng Zhi Chus nervous mood eased, and he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Thats great. Im glad Mr Zhi Chu is willing to add me as friend!

Yang Qian Dan smiled and said: Ill send you a friend request after I get back. Dont forget to accept it!

Bai Yi had an unpleasant expression. He obviously didnt want to let Cheng Zhi Chu have too much contact with them but, when he recalled Cheng Zhi Chus act of avoiding him earlier, he didnt want to make him unhappy again and could only endure.

The boy secretly made a victory gesture inside him. He was very clever, and he knew to just leave it at that and not take things too far. Anyway, theres still plenty of time and this is just one step towards success. Later he could get in touch with Mr Zhi Chu more often and help his uncle out.

He then tugged at Gu Zhens sleeve and said with a smile: Uncle, lets go back. Dont forget, we still have an alliance meeting to attend.

Okay.

Gu Zhen also understood that it was pointless just standing around. He nodded his head slightly and stored away his emotions. He gave a deep look at Cheng Zhi Chu and Bai Yi and said, Goodbye.

Bai Yi naturally didnt respond. Cheng Zhi Chu just absentmindedly gave him a small wave. All that was on his mind was the possibility of him running into Winter Branch after going back.

Gu Zhen and Yang Qian Fan walked out of the school and left the instance. Bai Yi expressionlessly stared at the school gate for a few seconds before his expression eased. He didnt dare touch Cheng Zhi Chu and could only try to act like nothing had happened and ask gently:

Zhi Chu, what did you think of earlier? I remember you mentioning that you encountered something scary before the instance started. Is it related to that?

I

Cheng Zhi Chu opened his mouth. He wanted to tell him about Winter Branch, but he quickly changed his mind and decided not to tell Bai Yi. After all, the system had already said that there was a way to deal with it. If possible, he didnt want to trouble Bai Yi. With him always been relying on Bai Yi and unable to show his strengths, how will Bai Yi come to like him?

Furthermore, Bai Yi is still in Death Mode and is unable to return to reality. Even if he said something, the only result of it is making Bai Yi unnecessarily worried.

Its actually nothing much. I just ran into some trouble, but I have already thought of a solution. Thats right, remember how I said hat I went to your place? I even brought you a photo.

He suddenly remembered that he was still carrying Bai Yis photo and he took the photo out of the system backpack. It was a photo of young Bai Yi painting.

I found it in an album. I dont know if this can make you happy

Cheng Zhi Chu handed the photo over. Seeing the exquisite looking young Bai Yi in the photo, he suddenly regretted not taking a few more photos so that he could hide one for himself.

But when he saw that photo, Bai Yi didnt reveal a happy expression. Instead, he furrowed his brows, took the photo and immediately made the gesture of wanting to tear it apart.

Ah, wait! Why are you tearing the photo?! Cheng Zhi Chu quickly stopped him.

This photo..made me think of a bad past.

Bai Yi glanced over at Cheng Zhi Chu. Seeing that he didnt seem to show signs of remembering the past, he shook his head slightly and said: So I dont want to keep it.

But to tear it. Its such a good photo..

Cheng Zhi Chu said this in a small voice. He then realised that his tone may have sounded too reluctant, so he quickly added with a red face: If you dont want it, Ill give it back.

Uh, although he had said that, he actually wants to keep it for himself.

Alright. Bai Yi fell silent for a few seconds before returning the photo to Cheng Zhi Chu, Then Ill be bothering you.

Its nothing, its nothing. Cheng Zhi Chu revealed a bright smile.

Bai Yi saw his smile and his eyes instantly softened. He habitually wanted to rub his head, but he held himself back. After slowly letting a breath out, he smiled at him and said: Thank you, Zhi Chu.

Youre welcome.

Cheng Zhi Chu saw that Bai Yi was smiling and felt pleased inside.

.

After speaking to Bai Yi a little longer, Cheng Zhi Chu reluctantly sent him away and then followed the systems instructions to take out his reward from the side task.

Do you wish to open the reward?]

[Yes.]

The reward has been issued into your backpack.]

Okay, now you can take it out. Oh, dont forget to also put on the silver ring. Those two things need to be used together]

Hearing the systems words, Cheng Zhi Chu had some doubts. What reward is it? Why can it be used together with a cursed item?

He then retrieved the reward from his backpack.

Swoooshh..

A long, white flared dress gently fluttered into his arms.

Cheng Zhi Chu: ?

.Wait a minute. Why does this dress look like a wedding dress? How should he use it? What does this have anything to do with escaping from Winter Branch?

It doesnt look like it, it is a wedding dress. As for how to escape.You should put it on first.]

Cheng Zhi Chu:

Why is Zhi Chu avoiding me
