This matter indeed made Wen Nan unhappy at first, but the little servant has been with him for so long, he’s already earned it back, and he even needs to thank the other for rushing to deliver himself for Wen Nan to control. But Yu Shujun obviously doesn’t have the good mindset of Wen Nan, who doesn’t take anything to heart. After pondering for a moment, Yu Shujun still explained: "After Twelve died, Feng Shui Huan helped me seek help from the main deity, predicting that the resurrection soul would fall on the trial map where you were." "When I arrived at that map, the first time I met you, I was filled with hatred..." At that time, Yu Shujun was seriously troubled, not only hating the Ghost Control Master Alliance and the other three legendary level players who helped Carl Milak, but also all players. Although Yu Shujun didn’t want to admit it, in order to achieve his purpose, he even made himself resemble those he despises, learning Carl Milak’s methods, using the gentleman’s agreement to deceive others, and when the plan fell apart, even harboring murderous intent towards an innocent person... The revival fragment was too special, and once used, it might affect the Divine Staff Sheath and the activation of the throne. At that time, Yu Shujun was anxious, thus losing his composure. But this couldn’t excuse the actions Yu Shujun took against Wen Nan. Now that things have come to this point, Yu Shujun regrets it, but also knows that it is irreparable. Yu Shujun often wonders why he had to meet this man at that time. If it had been before Guardian Twelve was in trouble, or even before Guardian Eight was in trouble, when Yu Shujun’s heart wasn’t filled with hatred, would there have been a chance for them both when meeting this man named Ye Jiu? The man opposite refused him so simply, perhaps, besides the special group Yu Shujun belonged to, their unfortunate encounter was also tied to it? Having reached this point, Yu Shujun had nothing to complain about, as it was all caused by himself. Now, being able to sit opposite one another like friends in front of the window, discussing the past, is already a fortunate thing for Yu Shujun. Yu Shujun knows, he should not hope for more, so he stays by the other’s side, silently watching as the other constantly makes love with other women. However, when the other man and those women are doing such things, Yu Shujun still can’t control himself, becoming unwilling, becoming angry... Of course, these things Yu Shujun thinks deep down in his heart, Wen Nan could never know. Wen Nan’s truth serum was ineffective on Yu Shujun, and Mind Reading Technique could be "reflected" back to Wen Nan using the transfer fragment, which often left Wen Nan puzzled by Yu Shujun’s little thoughts. But even if he couldn’t completely guess Yu Shujun’s feelings toward him, Wen Nan could still clearly feel Yu Shujun’s struggle, fear, and sadness regarding past memories, so Wen Nan seriously said: "The past can’t be changed, but from now on, as long as I’m here, I won’t let similar things happen again." Yu Shujun raised his eyelids again, staring steadily at Wen Nan, without responding for a long time. A player who has just entered the silver rank, saying such words to Yu Shujun, would probably laugh at Wen Nan’s overestimation of his capabilities. But in Yu Shujun’s ears, it inexplicably made him feel at ease. Yu Shujun’s trust in Wen Nan, sometimes, was even higher than Wen Nan had in himself. Although he didn’t speak, Wen Nan could feel Yu Shujun’s emotions from his gaze, which made Wen Nan think of something else, and he couldn’t help but ask: "You have so many fragments in your hand, and have interacted with so many Guardians, you should have known about the Divine Staff Sheath, right? At first, you wanted to take the Divine Staff Sheath for yourself, right? Why did you later change your mind and want me to permanently bind to the Divine Staff Sheath?" Clearly, Yu Shujun himself would be more willing and suitable to be the Sword Holder; why then is he determined to push this position onto Wen Nan? Could it be that he was influenced by the golden control pattern, and became addicted to being a servant? While thinking, Yu Shujun responded: "It was the Main Deity’s agent who hinted to me." "...The Main Deity’s agent? Feng Shui Huan, Guild Leader?" Yu Shujun nodded, "After knowing about the Divine Staff Sheath, I was determined to get it and become the Sword Holder, but that agent told me, some things cannot be forced, or it will backfire. Some people are far more suitable to be the Sword Holder than I am." Hearing this, Wen Nan nodded. Yes, those words sounded just like the mysterious agent’s own words. Yu Shujun continued, "At that time, I didn’t understand, I was unwilling and asked him who exactly was far more suitable to be the Sword Holder, but didn’t get a direct response, only a phrase— "’When you see him, you will naturally understand.’ Saying this, Yu Shujun looked at Wen Nan, "I didn’t believe it at first, but when you appeared, I believed it." Wen Nan was stunned for a moment, looking into the other’s eyes, feeling as though Yu Shujun had been with him for so long that he had learned his flirting techniques, but when he looked seriously into the other’s eyes, Wen Nan saw a sparkle in the depths, like stars in the night sky. After a moment of daze, Wen Nan laughed, "Could it be that being a servant for too long has started to give you a filter for the master?" Saying this, Wen Nan put on a troubled look, "Your filter is too strong, the master might develop an idol complex." Yu Shujun glared at Wen Nan, thinking that he shouldn’t have shared his inner thoughts with the other. This person’s serious demeanor couldn’t last ten minutes before reverting to type. "The legend of the Divine Staff Sheath had been circulating in this gaming world for a long time, but so many players expended so much effort searching for it and never found it, yet you got it without breaking a sweat. Have you thought about why that is?" Yu Shujun paused for a moment, giving his own answer, "I think it’s not that the players are searching for the Divine Staff Sheath, but that the Divine Staff Sheath is searching for its suitable Sword Holder itself. The Divine Staff Sheath chose you." Saying this, Yu Shujun looked seriously at Wen Nan, "The main deity here is watching over you." Wen Nan felt that Yu Shujun’s words were somewhat mystical. However, after pondering for a moment, Wen Nan recalled his brief conversation with the main deity when he received the [Silver Star] badge, causing his brows to furrow, "The main deity, wouldn’t unwittingly take a fancy to me, right?" Although "watch over" and "take a fancy" mean roughly the same, for some reason, when Wen Nan said it, Yu Shujun felt as though it had taken on some strange color. He shouldn’t be discussing this with him; the other person was not serious. Yu Shujun sighed lightly, "Let’s not talk about this, talk about something else?" Wen Nan readily nodded, "Then let’s talk about your [Gold Star]?" Yu Shujun paused, thinking that [Gold Star] is just a badge, nothing much to talk about, "If you want to discuss the contents of the gift pack attached to that badge, I can’t say anything, even if I want to, the system wouldn’t allow it." Wen Nan shook his head, "I don’t want to talk about that." Wen Nan leaned on his knees a bit closer to Yu Shujun, beckoning with his finger for Yu Shujun to lean closer and said, "Which part of your body did you wear that golden halo?" Yu Shujun refused to answer and directly jumped off the windowsill, ready to leave the scene. "Hey, why leave halfway through the conversation?" Wen Nan raised his hand, grabbing Yu Shujun’s wrist, pulling him back, "Tit for tat, you put mine on me personally, let me see yours, what’s the harm?" Yu Shujun struggled with his wrist but didn’t break free, "Let go." Wen Nan didn’t let go, "We’ve known each other for so long, why be so distant?" Yu Shujun’s mind shifted, suddenly changing his attitude, "You want to see?" Saying this, he nodded, "Sure, I’ll take it off for you to see."
