Every Day the Protagonist Wants to Capture Me Chapter 22

Chapter 22 – I’m your father.

Chu Yu calmly thought for a moment, the heart silently knocked the system: "…System, I'd like to ask, should I commit suicide to apologize or wait to be cut to pieces?"

The System's tone was cheerful: "Please turn on comment barrage view ~"

Chu Yu opened comment box and instantly felt the deep malice of the System.

His eyes were flooded with countless comments saying "It's finished! Throw flowers!" And "Double Happiness!"

(TN: The comments said "囍" – double happiness – which is a symbol used for weddings to congratulate the bride and groom. The comments also said "完结撒花" which literally means "it's the end, scatter flowers." However, the it's something that people use to comment in videos. When used at the end it's to congratulate the video makers, but sometimes it's used in the middle, to joke about the "end" of something, like when the main couple kisses.)

Dang it, System! You're just a self-centered show-off!

Chu Yu's face became full of black lines. He immediately closed the comment barrage view screen. Xie Xi's black eyes were quiet and calm. Chu Yu turned around, brow beaded with sweat, and laughed hollowly: "Accident, just an accident, hahahahaha. s.h.i.+di, don't pay any attention to it. Let me go."

Chu Yu didn't dare to even think about what that lick meant and he's also afraid that now Xie Xi will lift his sword and stab him.

The protagonist’s first kiss was taken by a cannon fodder!

What the ****! This is a horrible first prize!

Xie Xi pursed his lips: "Not an accident."

Chu Yu almost fell to his knees in despair: "It was an accident!"

Xie frowned then no longer spoke. Silently, he gently put Chu Yu down. He turned to Duan Xue but he didn't move for a long time. Finally, he raised his hands and touched his lips.

It wasn't an accident.

Probably because he was furious and had no other way to vent his emotions, he attacked the jade tiles quickly and ruthlessly.

Heaven has eyes and knows that this is the protagonist so it wasn't long before the jade floor made a cracking sound and broke.

The whole place shook violently. The frail Chu Yu almost fell down on the ground but, fortunately, Xie Xi had not forgotten him. Xie Xi ran back and put his arms under Chu Yu's back and knees to hold him up.

From somewhere in front of them they heard the thunderous sound of a heavy stone door opening. A glimmer of light appeared. Xie Xi held Chu Yu tightly and ran towards the light. Bright light nearly blinded him so he instinctively closed his eyes, unconsciously holding Chu Yu tighter. He used Duan Xue to activate a weak protective s.h.i.+eld around the two of them.

Chu Yu wiped away the tears that sprang into his eyes that smarted because of the light. Suddenly, he heard a voice say, in a tone of pleasant surprise: "… Little brother?"

Chu Yu: "…"

For a brocon, the happiest outcome is that when you heard your little brother disappeared, yet he came back and his arms and limbs weren't broken, but little brother …

Brought back a wild man.

Chu Sheng's eyes showed his anger as he raised San Huo and vigilantly stared at Xiu who was holding Chu Yu tight. His face livid, Chu Sheng asked: "Who are you? What are you trying to do? Let go of my little brother!"

Chu Yu's eyes had finally adapted to the light. He shaded his eyes with his hand and coughed lightly, saying: "Eldest brother, this is my s.h.i.+di, you've met him before."

Chu Sheng then noticed that Xie Xi's face was familiar. He vaguely recalled seeing a spoiled little boy in Chu Yu's arms three years ago. Adding up all the old and new grudges, his face became increasingly ugly: "s.h.i.+di? Why are you holding my brother? Such intimacy is highly improper!",

Xie Xi's face was expressionless as he said calmly: "I shared a bed with s.h.i.+xiong for three years. Now all I'm doing is holding him."

Chu Sheng, thunderstruck, stuttered: "Shared …. shared a bed …"

(TN: Xie Xi said "同床共枕" – literally "to share the bed" but figuratively "to be married.")

Seeing that the brocon was so shocked that he was almost about to faint, Chu Yu's head ached. He pinched Xie Xi's waist and tried to change the topic: "Eldest brother, why are you here?"

Xie Xi, who was pinched lightly, only felt a little bit of a tickle. He looked down at Chu Yu's soft lips, paused, then looked away immediately. He dared not look again.

Chu Yu was looking around so he did not notice the look in Xie Xi's eyes just now. However, Chu Sheng saw everything clearly. His hand on San Huo tightened and he stared at Xie Xi, on the alert.

Chu Yu saw that they were in a large hall. Eight painted red pillars, big enough for two people to encircle with their arms, were in the immense open area. Looking up, he saw that the ceiling was high above them. The white marble floor had a huge spell circle drawn on it, faintly glimmering, looking somewhat like a maple leaf.

Chu Yu did not hear Chu Sheng’s response and carelessly looked back at him: "Eldest brother?"

Chu Sheng regained his composure and was silent for a bit before he spoke: "Little brother, of course I'm here, this is Falling Maple Valley…"

Chu Yu: "…"

Chu Sheng's voice suddenly turned mournful as he said, sorrowfully: "Seven days ago we received news from Tian Yuan Sect that demonic cultivators had ambushed my little brother. You went missing and they didn't know if you were dead or alive. When we heard the news, mother fainted and everything was in chaos. Father returned from Jinhe and grandfather and grandmother asked for a divination…"

The original Chu Yu was everyone's favorite, a spoiled little princess.1 It seems this description really was true. No wonder the original Chu Yu's family was completely destroyed by the protagonist in the novel. The original Chu Yu was killed by the protagonist and his doting family all went on the warpath to get revenge for him but were all killed by the protagonist.

Chu Yu secretly sighed. The former owner of this body suffered a painful death at the hands of the protagonist.

A nice, n.o.ble, cool, elegant, and magnificent "little princess"
