Quick Transmigration: Homewrecker System! [BL]

Chapter 409 - 12.17

[Warning: Mild Gore.]

"Yunyu… Why…"

[Because you're a neglectful asshole! Now suffer! MUAHAHAHAHA!]

Yunyu's soul was floating around with Pupa, watching Huang Shu hugged his cold corpse tightly as if never want to let go.

"Yunyu, your body is so cold… I don't like this, please return…" Huang Shu said while his tears had been dried out, but even with a glance, one could see that Huang Shu was in so much sadness and regret.

[Heh, you keep saying that, but what did you do when I was alive? NOTHING! You don't even give me proper food, you also never visited me! Do you know how a broken heart can impact someone's health?]

[Huang Shu, you're a jerk! A neglectful jerk!]

[Just because you already have everything, you pushed the one who helped you since the very start! Just because you don't need me anymore!]

Yunyu fumed as he yelled at Huang Shu, who couldn't hear him. Huang Shu kept on kissing Yunyu's cheek and lips, afraid that Yunyu's body would rot before he got satisfied embracing his wife.

The servants and guards came to the Cold Palace. They saw their handsome and mighty Golden Emperor was hugging a corpse of the Empress, Empress Xiuying. Even with one glance, they knew that the Empress was dead, especially after seeing how malnourished he had become.

  The head eunuch approached the Emperor, who was crying even with his dried tears.

"Y—Your Majesty, His Majesty Empress has passed away, we need to bury her—"

The head eunuch froze when the Golden Emperor glared at him.                                                         

"Dead, dead, WHO SAID MY WIFE IS DEAD? HE'S JUST SLEEPING!" Emperor Xianglian shouted, which made all the servants cowered in fear. They dared not disturbing their Emperor, who didn't seem to be in a good mood today. He glared at the head eunuch who just interrupted his time with his wife just now.

He glared at the eunuch hatefully and pointed at the guard, who was also cowering in fear not far from him, "You, go kill this eunuch!"

Everyone gasped, including the head eunuch. He was terrified. He prostrated and knocked his head on the damp wooden floor, "Y—Your Majesty, this servant knows nothing. Please don't punish this servant."

"You're the one who killed my wife! You should be punished!" Emperor Xianliang accused so suddenly. "You starved my wife to death!"

"B—But, Your Majesty, it was your order to absolutely ration the Empress' food! This servant is just following your order!"

"Lies! I wouldn't do such a thing! I just said to you that you should lessen his food portion, but you starved him to death instead!" Emperor Xianliang pointed at the guard again and ordered. "Go decapitate him now! I want to avenge my wife! This is the order from the Emperor!"

The guard hesitated, but because of this absolute order. He unsheathed his sword and aimed at the head eunuch who was so scared.

Slash!

With only one slash, the eunuch's head rolled on the ground, and the Emperor watched it coldly. Truth be told, he knew that he was the one who was at fault here, but he didn't know how to ease this pain in his heart.

So he just blamed others.

But after he saw the eunuch's head rolling on the ground, it didn't give him any satisfaction. In fact, it just gave him more burden in his heart. Like a confused man, he just acted out of rage, rage upon himself.

The servants were utterly terrified of the Emperor right now. The fair and righteous Emperor suddenly did something so heinous as killing a loyal eunuch out of rage. It made them scared of their own little lives.

Huang Shu gritted his teeth. He had this strange urge to kill everyone because of his own guilt. He clenched Yunyu's cold hand and yelled, "LEAVE! I WANT MY TIME WITH MY WIFE!"

The servants and guards scrambled as they got the order from the mad Emperor. Empress Dowager and Concubine Xi were about to come after hearing the ruckus, but when they saw how the servants and guards rushed out to leave as quick as possible, they knew it wasn't the best time.

And this also marked Imperial Concubine Xi's understanding that Bai Yunyu was irreplaceable in Huang Shu's heart, even after he had been schemed, banished, and died. Thus, Concubine Xi retreated with Empress Dowager because they didn't want to get on the Emperor's bad side.

At least not now, but Imperial Concubine Xi had already planned on snatching that Empress throne after Bai Yunyu's death.

Huang Shu kept on weeping even after the whole night. He didn't want to let go, even when Yunyu's corpse grew even colder. All he did was hug the body as tightly as he could.

"Yunyu, it's midnight already, and it's very cold… is this what you experience every night? Why didn't you tell me? All you need to do is to apologize and tell me that you're hurting, so I can bring you back."

[That's because I will not apologize to someone who pushed me to this Cold Palace! They're the evil ones! You dumb jerk!]

Yunyu vented everything that he had for the whole day until he was satisfied, but it seemed that Huang Shu was still in too much shock. It had been twelve hours since Huang Shu discovered his body, and Yunyu started to worry.

No, he wasn't worried about Huang Shu, he was worried about his gross corpse.

[Pupa, it has been twelve hours, and Huang Shu is still weeping like that. My body will soon decompose. Wouldn't it be bad for him to hug my decomposing body? It'd be a bit gross…]

[Pupa: He's still in too much shock. Don't you see his reaction? He is completely broken.]

[I mean, I guess…]

Yunyu saw the severed head of the eunuch on the ground, alongside the body of the eunuch. The servants and guards were too scared to take the body, and Huang Shu didn't seem to care either.

[Ehh… why is he so sad, though? His Fatemeter is only 50%, right?]

[Pupa: Indeed. He only has 50% Fatemeter on you, but you should see his identity too. He is the Emperor, the one whose love shouldn't be given to one person only. His love, duty, everything he had should be shared with the nation and the harem members. It was just the fate of the Emperor.]

[Pupa: You have 50% of his love. So basically, you're just as important as his empire and everything inside it. Because he already gave his 50% for you and 50% for his empire. You're not less loved, but the circumstances and misunderstanding ruined everything.]

[Pupa: Still though, I will not lie that Huang Shu is an ignorant jerk.]

Bai Yunyu watched how Huang Shu was utterly broken, to the point that his mental health might have been disturbed a little. He looked so lost and twisted.

His eyes were empty as he kept staring at Yunyu's corpse, like a man descending into madness.

Yunyu got disturbed and scared by Huang Shu's change. As much as he wanted to be petty and let Huang Shu burn in a pit of fire, he didn't want to see someone descending into madness right in front of him. So he asked the system:

[Alright, Pupaa, we've seen enough. I'm quite satisfied with the outcome. Let's restart now, shall we?]

[Pupa:… we can't restart now.]
