Everyday the protagonist wants to capture me

Brought back a wild man.

Chu Sheng’s eyes showed his anger as he raised San Huo and vigilantly stared at Xie Xi 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 Shidi, 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: “Shidi? 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 Shixiong 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 Leaf 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, noble, cool, elegant, and magnificent “little princess” should have nothing to do with a cannon fodder villain!
