I Rely on Kisses to Clear Survival Games

Cheng Zhi Chu stood outside the door and noticed the bad expression on Bai Yis face. He suddenly started to feel nervous and secretly felt relieved that Bai Yi didnt witness him kiss the other soul fragments.

He suspected that he felt this way because he still subconsciously considered them as separate individuals. But like what the system had said before, he shouldnt think this way. It must start from him and he should treat them all like they are Bai Yi.

Thinking this, Cheng Zhi Chu pursed his lips. He tossed away all the useless thoughts in his mind and then led the others into the house.

His parents saw Cheng Zhi Chu returning with a group of people after only heading outside for a moment and was very surprised. Cheng Zhi Chu gave them the excuse that he had thought of beforehand. He told them that they were friends that he met in a game and had come over to visit him.

I didnt expect Zhi Chu to bring back so many friends today. I didnt prepare enough dishes.. Mother Cheng looked very pleased. She got up and prepared to go back into the kitchen, Sit down first. Ill cook up a few more dishes.

Aunty, thank you for your kindness but you dont have to worry about us. We have already eaten. Joshua said with a smile. We are just here for a quick visit. We will be leaving soon.

Okay then.

Mother Cheng didnt stay idle. She brought out lots of fruits and snacks and said with a smile: But you should stay a little longer to accompany Zhi Chu and us. Its been a long time since our family has been this lively.

No problem.

Joshua politely responded. Compared to him, the other fragments acted rather awkwardly. It has been a long time since they have interacted normally with ordinary humans.

Cheng Zhi Chu saw that his parents didnt appear to be surprised by the grooms and Bai Yis similar appearances and secretly let out a sigh of relief. He sat back down next to Bai Yi and quietly whispered a few things to him.

He quickly explained to Bai Yi that he had acquired a new ability from the system that allowed him to temporarily turn the fragments human. It was also prepared to help with Bai Yis future integration with his soul fragments.

I understand. Bai Yi smiled at Cheng Zhi Chu. He said very gently, Thank you for doing so much for my sake.

Cheng Zhi Chu was a little embarrassed. He also smiled at Bai Yi. Inside, he felt that this was something that he should do for Bai Yi.

But the next second, Bai Yi moved over to his ear. In a low voice, he said: But I am very jealous, and very angry..Zhi Chu, you better compensate me later.

As he said this, he placed his hand onto Cheng Zhi Chus hand under the table and gently interlocked their fingers.

Cheng Zhi Chus face was completely red. He quickly increased the distance between the two and guiltily looked over at his parents. Seeing that they werent acting any different, he felt relieved. He wanted to quietly move his hands away, but Bai Yi held tightly onto his hand for a while before finally loosening his grip.

Go eat.

Cheng Zhi Chus face was flushed. He mouthed a few words to Bai Yi and then quickly finished off the rest of his meal. At this moment, everyone present was also about to finish their meal. When they were done, Cheng Zhi Chu and his sister cleaned the table up together.

Brother, since youre back you can wash the dishes. You can use this chance to show off in front of your friends. Cheng Ling Ling stuck out her tongue and pushed the job to Cheng Zhi Chu before slipping out of the kitchen.

Youre pushing it onto me again.

Cheng Zhi Chu felt a little helpless but he had always been spoiling his sister so he couldnt get angry. He accepted his fate and began to wash up. His mind however was still on the situation outside. Every now and then he would check on the situation. Fortunately, Bai Yi and the others didnt do anything in front of his parents and nothing happened.

He washed for a while when he heard someone suddenly open the door from outside. Bai Yi rolled up his sleeves and walked in. He smiled and said to him: Ill help.

No need. Youre a guest. How can I make you wash the dishes.

Cheng Zhi Chu originally wanted to kick Bai Yi out but, with the latters insistence, he could only let him do as he pleased. The moment he saw Bai Yi squeeze out half a bowl of detergent, Cheng Zhi Chu couldnt help but laugh. He patted Bai Yis shoulder and said: Just leave it to me. You probably havent washed dishes before?

After all, Bai Yis family background is extremely remarkable. He is a young master that had grown up with a silver spoon in his mouth so he must have never done these chores

He couldnt help but start laughing again. It was purely because he found the gap between Bai Yis perfect demeanour and his inability to do basic housework cute.

The handsome man fell silent for a moment. He seemed to realise that the reason he was being laughed at was because he had squeezed out too much detergent, so he poured half of it out into another bowl. He then said, You can teach me how to clean. I can learn.

Ill teach you next time. Ill wash these up first. Cheng Zhi Chu had a bright smile on his face. Because his hands were wet, he used his arm to gently nudge Bai Yi and gesture to him to move aside, You can just go and wait outside.

I dont want to go out. Bai Yi said. Did you want me to look at them?

But its boring watching me clean dishes. Cheng Zhi Chu stood at the sink washing the dishes and responded casually.

No. As long as I can watch you, no matter what you do everything is interesting.

Bai Yi suddenly moved forward from behind Cheng Zhi Chu and embraced him in his arms. With both his hands on Cheng Zhi Chus hands, he gently kissed his ears and said with a gentle voice: Zhi Chu..

Cheng Zhi Chus face immediately went red. His hands trembled and he almost dropped the bowl into the sink. He panicked and said: Outside, my parents

Its okay. They cant see.

Bai Yi guided Cheng Zhi Chus hand to put down the bowl and turned him around. Like this, he trapped him between himself and the sink. He gently smiled and kissed him on his lips. He held onto the back of Cheng Zhi Chus head and deepened the kiss.

Cheng Zhi Chu was both nervous and shy. He closed his eyes and his eyelashes gently trembled. He awkwardly responded to Bai Yi and felt himself immersed with sweetness.

But they didnt kiss for long when the door to the kitchen once again opened. The two quickly separated and saw that it was Joshua who had come in.

Why are you here? Cheng Zhi Chu tried to cover things up with a few coughs. He turned over and didnt dare look at Joshua directly in his eyes.

To see what youre doing. We dont feel comfortable letting the two of you be alone together. The golden-haired young man smiled, You should be glad that the person entering is me and that Ive stopped the others from coming in. If I didnt.

He didnt finish speaking but the meaning in his words was self-evident. He then raised his hand and pointed to his own lips. With curved eyes he said to Cheng Zhi Chu: You should wait a little before going out. Its still a little swollen.

Cough, cough cough!

Cheng Zhi Chus face turned bright red.

Dont tease him. Bai Yi looked at Joshua coldly.

I was just speaking the truth. The golden-haired young man shrugged, You should come out soon. I wont be able to stop them later.

Bai Yi didnt respond. Joshua also didnt care. He walked out of the kitchen, returned to his seat and continued to chat with Cheng Zhi Chus parents. The atmosphere was very harmonious.

Cheng Ling Ling sat next to Su Ling. She had thought that since Su Ling and herself are of similar ages, they would be able to get along well but, after chatting for a while, she realised that Su Lings personality was rather introverted, and he didnt seem to like communicating with others. Every time she said ten sentences, he would only say one.

He seems to be constantly looking at the kitchen..

Cheng Ling Ling wasnt angry. Instead, she watched the teenagers movements with great interest. When she saw that the teenagers attention was directed to the kitchen, she suspected that he was looking at her brother.

Why does he care so much about her brother?

The young girl muttered. She then grabbed a handful of toffee from the table and gave some of it to Su Ling. Here, want one? This candy is very good.

Su Ling moved his line of sight. Before he was able to look at her face to face, he had already subconsciously shaken his head. Cheng Ling Ling again pushed the candy over. She smiled and added: My brother also likes to eat this. You should give it a try.

..Thank you.

Seeing the candy in her hand, Su Ling hesitated for a moment. He then reached over to accept them. Holding onto the candy in his hand, he noticed the packaging and couldnt help but widen his eyes in shock.

In his world, Zhi Chu also liked to eat this toffee brand.

He held tightly onto the toffee. His heart inexplicably started to sting. He slowly removed the wrapping and placed it in his mouth. In an instant, his mouth was filled with its sweet taste.

To him, this taste was too sweet. Like Bai Yi, he similarly didnt understand why Zhi Chu liked to eat something so sweet.

.But did this mean that, no matter where it is, some things cannot be changed?

For example. Zhi Chu always liking the same toffee.

Or for exampleThe person that he goes out with is Bai Yi, not him.

And it will never be him..

Huh? Wh-whats wrong?

Cheng Ling Ling saw that the eyes of the boy before her had suddenly turned red and for a moment she didnt know what to do. She had never seen another boy cry. Why was he crying? Was it because it was too sweet?

If Su Ling hated sweets yet he still ate it because she mentioned that her brother liked itDoes this mean that he has feelings for her brother?

The girl couldnt help but become vigilant -She thought of Gu Zhen. This man also likes her brother.

But even if you wanted to get in a relationship with her brother, its not an easy feat. They will need to get through her first. She wont easily let her brother become someone elses!

Thinking this, Cheng Ling Ling looked suspiciously at her brothers friends. She started to feel that they were all dangerous. They all seemed to have bad intentions towards her brother

?

Bai Xi Xing who sat not far away suddenly shivered. He had a strange feeling.

..

Cheng Zhi Chu finished washing up the dishes and came out from the kitchen. He immediately heard his mother once again asking that question.

Are you all single? Do you have someone that you like? Mother Cheng smiled and asked the people who arrived later.

Mum Cheng Zhi Chu called out to her. He spoke helplessly, Stop asking about these things.

He was worried about it possibly triggering something terrible..

Mother Cheng complained: Whats wrong with asking? If they dont want to answer, Xiao Xie and the others can just not reply. I wont force them.

But even though she said that, her expectant look made it hard for the others to refuse.

I have someone that I like. Xie Yuan Huai nodded slightly. He quickly glanced over at Cheng Zhi Chu before politely answering.

Me too. The groom smiled and said, I am soon to marry him -Ouch, what are you doing? He glared at Joshua who suddenly pinched him. The latter however didnt pay him any attention.

The groom was about to get angry, but Mother Cheng happily gave him her congratulations, so he didnt dare explode. He continued chatting with Mother Cheng It is never wrong to please ones mother-in-law.

.Yes, me too. The ghost with the appearance of a young teenager solemnly nodded. At the same time he revealed a depressed look, But I think he probably doesnt like me..

Mother Cheng saw this and tried to comfort him: Dont worry. As such a handsome boy like you, the person that you like will definitely like you too. Its just a matter of time.

I also have someone that I like, but it is unrequited.

Joshua smiled. He replied and said: But I have never asked for him to respond to my feelings. Because Im afraid of not even being able to be friends.

How can that be?

Mother Cheng was surprised. Even Father Cheng who sat to one side and was too embarrassed to join in turned his head over and interjected: Youre too pessimistic. You can still be friends. Young girls have always been more tolerant towards handsome men. If you dont believe me, ask Ling Ling.

Dad! Cheng Ling Ling cried out.

No, Im not being pessimistic. Its Joshua lowered his eyes. His smiled bitterly and said in a small voice, The person that I like is a man.

..

The room suddenly quietened down. Cheng Zhi Chu widened his eyes. He looked over at Joshua with a look of disbelief This guy cant be thinking of confessing to him right in front of his parents?!

Did I make it awkward for everyone? Joshua said apologetically. Sorry, I shouldnt have mentioned it.

.No, of course not. Liking someone is a natural thing. How can we feel awkward?

Mother Cheng was stunned for a few seconds before she quickly recovered. She patted Joshuas shoulder and gently comforted him: You just happened to like someone of the same gender. This isnt illegal or immoral. It is just instinct. Everyone is equal. No one is qualified to blame you of anything.

Father Cheng nodded. He echoed: Thats right.

But like this, you have to consider a lot of things. Mother Cheng said, You must first figure out whether or not the person that you like can accept you. You also need to take into consideration the environment around you and your familys response..It wont be easy. You should have a long-term plan.

Yes, thats right. Father Cheng added.

Uncle, aunty, you Joshua appeared to be moved. He asked, Dont you think that Im.

We are not old-fashioned people. Mother Cheng smiled and said, In our opinion, it doesnt matter whether you like the same gender or the opposite gender. It doesnt matter if you dont want to get married or have children. The most important thing is to be happy. Its not like theyre criminals. Their decisions should be respected.

Your aunt is right. Father Cheng nodded.

You really think this? Cheng Ling Ling sat up. She said with surprise, Mum, Ive always thought that you trusted the media.

As long as the conditions are right, I am willing to help make a difference. This isnt something that surprising. Stop overreacting. Mother Cheng poked her daughters forehead.

No, I just found it strange. You have never told brother and I about it.

Like his sister, Cheng Zhi Chu was also very surprised. At the same time, he was moved. His heart felt very warm inside.

Although he had only just gotten together with Bai Yi and had not had the time to consider what his familys reaction would be, he was indeed subconsciously worried about it and would intentionally avoid his parents. He had never thought that his parents would be so open-minded.

It looks like, as long as his parents approve of Bai Yi, they would allow them to be together. From the looks of it, his parents seemed to like Bai Yi so that wasnt a problem at all.

Thank you, uncle and aunty.

The golden-haired young man revealed a moved expression. He then turned around and winked at Cheng Zhi Chu with a grin on his face. Seeing this, Cheng Zhi Chu understood. Joshua was deliberately acting to test out his parents attitude towards homosexuality.

The others also fell into deep thought. Time passed by quickly and it was already late. Cheng Zhi Chu, Bai Yi and the others left and planned to stay the night at a hotel owned by the Bai family.

Because he was worried that something could happen, Cheng Zhi Chu also decided to stay at the hotel for the night. After telling his family that he wanted to catch up with his friends, his parents naturally didnt refuse.

Under Bai Xi Xings arrangement, they occupied the top floor of the hotel and each had their own rooms. Cheng Zhi Chus room was in the middle of all the rooms.

Cheng Zhi Chu finished showering and he walked out of the bathroom while drying his hair. Standing at the window, he appreciated the night view. Just when he was contemplating over whether or not he should check on the situation outside, the system suddenly appeared. It spoke joyfully:

The photobook is finally fixed. You can now once again store the soul fragments inside. Go to their rooms now and kiss them!]

Bai Yis Diary (Part 88)

Tonight probably wont be very peaceful. I plan to go find Zhi Chu later and sleep with him but I am certain that the other mes would also have the same idea.

Bai Xi Xings Diary (Excerpt)

I dont know if Junior Cheng is worried about things like this. For example, after getting together with my cousin, the elders in the family would throw credit cards with tens of millions at his face and force him to leave my cousin.

But in reality, this is something that wont happen-The elders in the family have already come to an agreement. With my cousins personality, he would definitely live his entire life alone. (Cousin is too restrained. Apart from me, no one else in the family knew about his feelings for Junior Cheng. He would always show a cold and indifferent look.) Now that there is suddenly someone who is willing to spend their entire lifetime with my cousin, they would probably tearfully shove credit cards with hundreds of millions in Junior Chengs hand and beg him not to leave my cousin.

And the money matter is easy to negotiate. If several hundred million isnt enough, they can give him more.
