There is One New Rule Every Month Globally

"You... you're the player from the future legend who killed Chen Yi?"

"That should be correct."

Little Miao's eyes gradually reddened, and after a few moments, she couldn't hold back any longer and threw herself into Wen Ping's arms, sobbing loudly, "Why did you only come now? Do you know how miserably Chen Yi has been hunting me down recently?"

"I can't even sleep."

"He's really not human."

"He's an animal."

"Alright, alright."

Wen Ping, with a face full of compassion, hugged Little Miao close and gently patted her back, whispering words of comfort, "It's okay now, it's all okay, everything has been taken care of, I'm here so don't worry."

"Chen Yi will never bully you again."

"Nor will anyone else ever bully you again."

"With the two unique, growing S-grade artifacts in the Entire Star System in my hand, I can block most enemies for you."

At that moment, Little Miao raised her head from Wen Ping's chest, her face streaked with tears, "But what if we encounter an enemy you can't block?"

Wen Ping smiled but did not speak, simply lowering his head to tenderly fix Little Miao's bangs, gently wiping the tears from her face.

"If we encounter an enemy that we can't block."

"I'll die with you."

"In this lifetime, you will never die before me."

"A man will never let his woman die before him. That Demon who gains power by killing his own wife, what right does he have to be called a man? He's nothing more than a beast."

"Even if you can be revived, how can you ever undo the psychological scars it leaves?"

"..."

Chen Yi, who was controlling Little Miao's body, was about to say something when he heard these words, a direct hit to the face, and suddenly felt a crack in his defenses.

...

"Ahem."

The Tuberculosis Rabbit, observing from a god-like perspective, cleared his throat with a slightly embarrassed cough and said, "Uh, don't take what Yi said seriously, that kid is all talk."

"Exactly."

Jiaye also leaned into Chen Yi's embrace to comfort him, "If it weren't for Yi, I would have ended up cleaning the deepest pits of hell with Tie Chui. Being able to contribute to you, Yi, instead of just being a trophy, also makes me feel very happy."

"If I had nothing to offer and just stood by your side like a trophy, then when you love me, I would feel overwhelmed and unworthy."

"I actually enjoy it."

"Every time you kill me, Yi, it gives me a sense of fulfillment, feeling like I've done something for you."

"At first, I didn't understand that feeling, but later I realized it's the satisfaction of being able to help the one you love."

"If a great danger came upon you, Yi, and I was completely useless, only able to stand by and watch, that would be truly despairing, wouldn't it?"

"..."

Sword Without End sat upright and expressionless to one side, silent.

He didn't know what to say.

That display of affection Wen Ping just put on, assuming his high-minded sentimentality, made him cringe. Wen Ping couldn't possibly think he was channelling Cupid, believing every word he uttered was glittering with pink stars, the epitome of romance, could he?

And Jiaye's declaration of love was equally cringe-inducing to him.

It was the first time he had seen someone express love by saying they actually enjoyed getting killed by the other person.

It was all too chaotic.

It was all too chaotic.

The world had become too chaotic; he no longer knew what to call it. As someone who cherished pure love, he felt like an outsider.

...

"I like you."

Little Miao, her face full of love and shyness, buried her head in Wen Ping's chest, and with that, the two were truly together. Actually, for a romantic relationship, a guy should generally not be the one to confess his love.

Confession is a very misguided action.

When a guy confesses, the girl will start to think rationally about many things instantly, such as whether the guy is handsome, if he has any bad habits, what's his temper like, income, future career plans, social circles, family background. If she chooses to be with that guy, she will consider how her close friends might view it and so on.

So many complicated and troublesome questions will flood her mind.

And the answer often comes back as, "Sorry, we're not suitable for each other."

It's not just an excuse—it truly is a matter of incompatibility, as there aren't many who can meet all those criteria. Even scammers can't create such a perfect boyfriend without sufficient information and intelligence.

But if a guy never confesses and just creates an ambiguous atmosphere, acting restless in his actions but reserved in his words, the likelihood of ending up together is much higher.

"Confession" is an aggressive action.

For most girls, due to the innate physical conditions of their bodies, they naturally lack a sense of security and will subconsciously counter or resist the "aggressive actions" of others, especially men.

Confession is just that, an aggressive action.

But if confession is replaced by creating ambiguity, it changes from an aggressive action to a softer mode of "boiling the frog in warm water."

Thus, for many inexperienced male lovers, it is often a foolish thing to confess to the girl they like. They muster a lot of courage to confess after preparing mentally for it.

The result, in most cases, is rejection.
