Hold His Hand - Chapter 2
Thirty million were lying in his account. The original owner later did even more extreme things, this made Lu Yanzhou a little uncomfortable when facing Xie Chengze.
This world is fragile, and the original owner’s body is also very fragile. This forced him to seal off most of his power, including many of his memories.
After he joined World Management, his memory of doing missions in those worlds is now very vague. Only the memory of his life on earth and all the memories related to Xie Chengze were clear.
Xie Chengze is his best friend.
Before becoming a main god, he was already friends with Xie Chengze.
When they first met, Xie Chengze didn’t get along well with others and was besieged by misunderstanding.
He had a good relationship sso he helped Xie Chengze after meeting him. After that, the two worked hard together and became a main god at the same time.
So, after becoming a main god, he was the closest to Xie Chengze.
As a result, in this world…he turned out to be an ungrateful scum who murdered Xie Chengze.
“Yanzhou.” Xie Chengze called out again from the other side. He patted the plastic sheet in front of him.
Xie Chengze lives in a sterile room made of glass, but one of the walls in this sterile room is made of a material that resembles a transparent plastic film. Of course, this ‘plastic firm’ is very thick and solid.
This soft wall can bring Xie Chengze closer to the people outside.
Lu Yanzhou heard Xie Chengze’s cry near the plastic film. He put his hand on where Xie Chengze’s hand is located, the two palms face each other through the plastic film.
“Yanzhou, Yanzhou!” Xie Chengze happily called Lu Yanzhou several times, pressing his hand hard, sticking tightly to Lu Yanzhou’s hand. His whole body is also lying on the ‘wall’, making the whole wall protrude toward Lu Yanzhou. His face was also very close to Lu Yanzhou.
Although there is a plastic film between them, this is the first time that Lu Yanzhou was so close to Xie Chengze’s face. He subconsciously took a step back.
The person in front of him is just a fragment of Xie Chengze’s soul but he still looks exactly like Xie Chengze. Xie Chengze’s beautiful face was less than 20 centimeters away from him, he subconsciously panicked.
Xie Chengze doesn’t like physical contact so he never dared to get too close to Xie Chengze before.
After Lu Yanzhou retreated, he saw a flash of loss in the eyes of the young man opposite him. Xie Chengze lowered his eyelids, slowly retreated: “Sorry.”
Lu Yanzhou was stunned — Why did Xie Chengze apologize?
Lu Yanzhou suddenly thought about it. In the original owner’s memory, the original owner interacted with Xie Chengze when Lu Qiqi gave him money when he was a child. Later on, he just sat beside Xie Chengze to talk.
Not only that, except for the original owner, no one else in the family would interact with Xie Chengze.
Xie Chengze’s father seems to be very concerned about Xie Chengze but he actually rarely goes upstairs to see him. Lu Qiqi, his stepmother, was trying to please Xie Chengze at the beginning but later on when she had a son, she threw Xie Chengze aside.
What about the servants at home? They were all found by Lu Qiqi. They won’t neglect Xie Chengze but they also don’t care.
Day after day, year after year, Xie Chengze has been alone in his glass cage.
Attached to the plastic sheet is a pair of rubber gloves that can be turned inside out. People outside can put their hands into the rubber gloves to hug Xie Chengze, who was in the sterile room, through the transparent plastic film. Xie Chengze can also put his hand into the glove from the inside to hug people on the outside.
However, the original owner had never seen anyone hug Xie Chengze, who was behind the plastic film, or being hugged by Xie Chengze.
Even the original owner himself. He had only played with Xie Chengze through the gloves when he was a child.
Even though Lu Yanzhou didn’t have the huge memories from his previous missions, he also knows that a child shouldn’t be raised like this.
Looking at Xie Chengze’s appearance…he craved interaction, even through the plastic film.
This kid is really pitiful.
Xie Chengze, who was in front of him now, was already 22 years old. He is not young, however, for Lu Yanzhou, who has lived for an unknown number of years, 22 years old…is totally a child.
Lu Yanzhou felt a deep sense of pity in his heart.
He reached into the rubber gloves attached to the plastic film and patted the lost Xie Chengze’s shoulder, giving him an elderly hug.
Xie Chengze’s face was full of surprises. He leaned on Lu Yanzhou, looking at Lu Yanzhou with wide eyes. The corners of his mouth curl slightly into a smile.
This is an expression that Xie Chengze would never have made before.
Xie Chengze in Lu Yanzhou’s memory said he cultivated the ruthless dao, so there’s always a cold aura around him, with a look as if telling people to stay away a thousand miles from him.
He was afraid that Xie Chengze would be too lonely so he would go to talk to Xie Chengze occasionally. Xie Chengze’s action is also very indifferent. He was afraid that if he went too much, Xie Chengze might find him annoying.
He actually hugged Xie Chengze now, and Xie Chengze also leaned on him. He doesn’t know will Xie Chengze feel embarrassed when he recovers his memories and thought about this scene?
Lu Yanzhou just thought of this when he felt Xie Chengze rubbing his chin with his head, like a kitten eager to be comforted — in order to hug Xie Chengze, he stuck to the plastic film tightly, making it convenient for Xie Chengze to rub against him.
After Xie Chengze did it, his body froze. He apologized uneasily: “Sorry.”
“Don’t say sorry. If you apologize to me like this, since I also hugged you, should I apologize too?” Lu Yanzhou said.
Xie Chengze raised his gaze, he stared blankly at Lu Yanzhou.
In fact, Lu Yanzhou didn’t really feel like he had hugged Xie Chengze because of the thick rubber gloves.
He reached out and patted Xie Chengze’s back, then he put the other hand around Xie Chengze’s shoulder.
This is a good brother hug. As a result, Xie Chengze plunged into his arms again, sticking close to him and won’t move.
This child, does he crave skin interaction?
Lu Yanzhou recalled, then he really found something about it from the original owner’s memory.
When the original owner came to play with Xie Chengze when he was little, Xie Chengze would always hold the original owner’s hand that he put into the rubber glove.
Xie Chengze likes to touch others, however, he grew up never really touching anyone.
He can only get close to other people through the plastic film or rubber gloves.
Lu Yanzhou felt his heart ache.
Xie Chengze is very simple. He also attached great importance to the original owner and really like the original owner, he treated the original owner as his best friend.
As a result…the original owner actually killed Xie Chengze. He is simply not human!
If Lu Yanzhou hadn’t crossed over, after the original owner secretly transferred 30 million from Xie Chengze, he would keep doing it. One after another, he transferred more and more money from Xie Chengze.
At that time, An Chenyuan, a junior whom the original owner met when he was in college, joined Xie Chengze’s company.
The original owner likes men, so he once again actively pursued An Chenyuan…An Chenyuan fell in love with the original owner.
After falling in love, An Chenyuan learned that the original owner had embezzled public funds and became worried. He encouraged the original owner to test Xie Chengze.
Xie Chengze, who was locked in the sterile ward, didn’t know anything, so when the original owner tested him, there’s nothing. However, because the amount of money he took away was too large, someone else noticed it.
An Chenyuan was even more afraid. He was worried inside out that the original owner would be imprisoned for the rest of his life. He then mentioned that if something happened to Xie Chengze, no one will pursue this…The original owner also had the thought of killing Xie Chengze, and it’s also very simple.
Xie Chengze is too fragile, even a breath of fresh air may cost him his life due to infection.
The original owner initially wanted to destroy Xie Chengze’s sterile room, but he didn’t dare to walk in front of Xie Chengze so he used another method.
Xie Chengze’s sterile room needs electricity. Huge amount of electricity is required to keep his sterile room running to provide him with clean air.
The original owner unplugged the sterile room power supply. Xie Chengze died just like that.
Fortunately, the original owner also did not end well either. After Xie Chengze died, the police immediately found evidence of him murdering Xie Chengze and he soon went to prison.
Xie Chengze is the largest shareholder of a listed company. The original owner not only embezzled hundreds of millions but even killed Xie Chengze, this is a huge matter.
Probably because of this, a righteous hacker released a surveillance video online. It turns out that after Xie Chengze suffered a power outage in the sterile room, he also used his mobile phone to ask his father for help. As a result, his father hung up the phone.
This matter involved father Xie. Then someone discovered that the original owner’s boyfriend, An Chenyuan, is father Xie’s illegitimate son.
The original owner learned about this from a lawyer, then he immediately bit. He said that An Chenyuan and father Xie instructed him to kill Xie Chengze. In the end, father Xie and An Chenyuan also went to prison.
The Xie family’s company has already had problems, and now with no father Xie, it naturally closed down due to poor management.
As for Xie Chengze’s property that father Xie and An Chenyuan wanted…It was discovered later on that Xie Chengze had actually written a will to donate all his property.
In the end, no one got it good. However, the one who got the worst is undoubtedly Xie Chengze.
Lu Yanzhou looked at Xie Chengze in his arms.
Xie Chengze’s life isn’t very good.
After the power outage in the sterile room, Xie Chengze can still survive for a while. During that time……What was he thinking about?
Lu Yanzhou felt really uncomfortable. He patted Xie Chengze’s back again.
He needs to earn enough merit as soon as possible.
If he wants to save Xie Chengze, he needs merits — Whether it is Xie Chengze’s soul fragment or this small world, they all need merits to recover.
When Xie Chengze’s soul fragments were nourished enough from it, he can build his immunity.
After that, he can deepen his relationship with Xie Chengze so when Xie Chengze passes away, he can leave this small world with Xie Chenge’s soul fragment.
After Lu Yanzhou joined World Management, he has been doing various tasks to stabilize those small worlds. With these tasks, he can get merit.
Some people are not very interested in merit, but he was very interested in merit. Beside doing the task earnestly, there’s also other ways to accumulate merit.
It’s because he has accumulated a lot of merit that he can become one of the four main gods in World Management.
However, in order to enter the small world, his merit is sealed with his power. Therefore, the merit that will nourish Xie Chenge’s soul must be from this world.
He also needs enough merit to stabilize this small world to take this small world away from Black Tortoise.
This morning he helped the old lady just to earn merit.
Lu Yanzhou thought of the 30 million that the original owner had misappropriated from Xie Chengze…It seems that the money cannot be returned to Xie Chengze for the time being.
The original owner just got the 30 millions so he didn’t do anything yet. Following this world’s original route, the original owner will observe for a period of time. After making sure that Xie Chengze didn’t find out what he did, he used the money to buy a large flat.
After that, the original took money from Xie Chengze several times to buy luxury goods and squeezed into the so-called upper society.
He is not the original owner, he doesn’t need to buy a house. He is also not interested in those luxury goods either. He can use this money to help others to earn merit.
