The Scum Gong Refuses the Crematorium [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 27

In the dark bedroom, the temperature kept rising. It felt like a fire had been lit, making everything hot enough to melt.

But.

There are always people who like to say things that ruin the mood when everyone else is happy.

System No. 1088: “Host, your body and soul must belong to the Child of Destiny. You must not be defiled by anyone else. Stop him quickly.”

“Is that so?” By now, Lu Mingyue had undone the last button on Sheng Yan’s shirt and was moving further down. Sheng Yan heard the system and spoke in a dreamy voice.

“But if I don’t have experience in this area,” Sheng Yan said, propping up one leg to make it easier for Lu Mingyue to move, “how will I know how to give Xie Qingyao the best experience?”

“But if you are touched by someone else—” System No. 1088 said anxiously, “you won’t be pure anymore.”

“Then I won’t be pure.” Sheng Yan didn’t care. “Why does a ‘scum’ character need to be pure?”

Why does a villain need to be pure? He just wanted to be happy.

“But this will make your mission harder,” System No. 1088 reminded him. “Marrying Lu Mingyue was already bad for the mission. If your body isn’t pure either…”

The system didn’t know if the mission could still be finished successfully.

“It’s fine, Xie Qingyao won’t care.” Before it could finish, Sheng Yan cut it off sharply. “Go stay in the ‘dark room’ for a while.”

System No. 1088 wanted to say more to persuade him, but the next second, it received a notification from the system’s program.

[Host successfully used the ‘Confinement’ function. 500 points deducted.]

System No. 1088: “…”

As the system’s voice stopped, the world finally became quiet.

However, the temperature in the bedroom did not cool down. It felt as if someone had added more wood to the fire. The room was so hot it made their faces red.

Sheng Yan sat up from his original position. He pressed his lips together, and his ears felt hot.

Lu Mingyue’s “skills” seemed to be very good.

“Is this pressure okay?” Lu Mingyue asked. He was so gentle it was overwhelming.

What could Sheng Yan say? At a time like this, he couldn’t say anything. The pleasure he felt made him feel like he was drowning in Lu Mingyue’s gentleness.

Luckily, the darkness hid everything. Otherwise, his red face would be completely exposed.

But his breathing didn’t hide much.

Lu Mingyue was not only good at reading people but also good at listening. Based on the rhythm of Sheng Yan’s breathing, he knew exactly how much pressure to use.

Even though winter was coming, the bedroom felt like the middle of summer. Both were sweating.

“How was that?” At the end, Lu Mingyue closed his hand, holding Sheng Yan completely, and asked softly.

Sheng Yan’s mind was blank. He tilted his head back, looking at the ceiling and gasping for air.

“…Not bad.” After a long time, Sheng Yan’s senses slowly returned. He had to admit to Lu Mingyue that he was pleased.

He didn’t realize how charming his voice sounded. His cool gaze now had a romantic tone. To anyone listening, it felt like a feather brushing against their heart.

Lu Mingyue, who was using a tissue to wipe his fingers in the dark, felt his hand shake.

He had waited many years to hear that “not bad.” Finally, he had heard it. It was no longer the sad memory of Sheng Yan saying, “Lu Mingyue, you’re terrible.”

Earlier, he didn’t have any improper thoughts while being close to Sheng Yan. But now, he could no longer hold back his suppressed emotions.

He turned his head and asked, “Sheng Yan, can I kiss your Adam’s apple?”

His voice was so charming that Lu Mingyue really wanted to kiss him to calm his own feelings.

“You can.” Since Lu Mingyue had been so helpful, Sheng Yan wasn’t stingy. He took the initiative to tilt his neck back.

In the dark, Lu Mingyue felt the warmth of Sheng Yan’s neck. His lips gently kissed the Adam’s apple.

At first, he only wanted a light kiss. But the moment his lips touched, he wasn’t satisfied. He wanted to kiss longer. He stayed for a few more seconds, but the longer he stayed, the deeper he wanted to kiss.

So, he opened his lips and took a light bite.

But just a bite wasn’t enough. He began to suck more deeply.

“Mm…” Because of what was happening to his neck, Sheng Yan had to lean his head back further and let out a soft sound.

“I’m sorry.” Hearing the sound, Lu Mingyue realized he might have been too rough. He quickly let go and apologized. He felt he had lost his mind and wasn’t being reasonable.

“It’s okay, it doesn’t hurt,” Sheng Yan replied. It really didn’t hurt. It actually felt good—the feeling of being treated like a treasure.

“Then… can I continue?” Lu Mingyue felt he was being greedy, but it just wasn’t enough. He wanted to kiss a little more, just a little more.

“Yes,” Sheng Yan replied.

This time, Lu Mingyue didn’t suck. Instead, he licked gently. Sheng Yan’s breathing became fast again.

Lu Mingyue still felt it wasn’t enough. After kissing and licking the whole neck, he asked in a low voice, “Can I kiss your lips?”

Lu Mingyue felt like he was going crazy. He didn’t plan for this at the start, but once he touched Sheng Yan, he lost all control.

“Lu Mingyue.” Sheng Yan finally noticed something was wrong. He reached out and held Lu Mingyue’s chin. “We signed the marriage papers. Do you know what that means?”

Lu Mingyue seemed to know what he was going to say. His heart beat even faster.

“It means that hugging, kissing, and having sex are all legal. We don’t need to ask for permission.” As he spoke, Sheng Yan moved his lips closer to Lu Mingyue’s. They were only millimeters apart. He stopped there.

He gave the choice to Lu Mingyue.

Lu Mingyue did not hesitate. He moved forward and kissed Sheng Yan. He even opened his mouth, explored Sheng Yan’s teeth, and held his tongue, completely taking over.

As the kiss deepened, Lu Mingyue’s hand moved to the back of Sheng Yan’s head, his fingers sliding into his hair. Both of them slowly leaned back onto the bed.

The kiss never stopped.

It was as if Lu Mingyue wanted to tell Sheng Yan about all twenty years of missing him through this one kiss.

That night, they didn’t do anything else besides that long kiss. Nothing could compare to it.

December arrived, and Sheng Yan and his band became very busy. They had more live streams and shows. As they became more popular, even TV stations invited them.

“The Jinghai TV Spring Festival Gala!”

When Zheng Ke and Zhong Nai heard the news, they couldn’t believe it. They said happily, “Are we really this famous now?!”

“Don’t look down on yourselves!” Manager Zhang Ruhan smiled at them. “You are already a little famous in Jinghai. It’s normal for a local TV station to invite you.”

Because they worked hard, they had a lot of fans online and offline. It wasn’t surprising that the TV station noticed them.

“But that’s for New Year’s Eve dinner,” Zheng Ke suddenly looked at Sheng Yan and said to Manager Zhang. “Are you sure you want our big boss to spend New Year’s alone?”

Lately, Sheng Yan and Lu Mingyue’s relationship had grown very quickly. Every day, no matter how late they finished work, Lu Mingyue would personally drive to pick up Sheng Yan. Also, Sheng Yan didn’t look so “cold” anymore. He looked like a man who was very happy in love.

It felt a bit wrong to keep a loving couple apart on New Year’s Eve.

Manager Zhang looked at Sheng Yan to ask for his opinion.

“It’s fine,” Sheng Yan said while working on his drums. “His work will keep him busy.”

A while ago, Lu Mingyue did pick him up every day. But lately, it was the driver who came. The driver said Lu Mingyue was busy with a very important project and would likely be busy through the New Year.

Even their “married life” had to be put on hold.

Sex is a strange thing. Once you start, it’s like a fire that spreads quickly. Sheng Yan sometimes wondered if Lu Mingyue was doing it on purpose—teasing him just a little bit so he would want more.

“Then it’s settled,” Manager Zhang said. “We will perform at the Jinghai TV Spring Festival Gala on New Year’s Eve. No one mess up.”

They all agreed.

But to be on TV, they needed to prepare well. Rock music wasn’t well-understood by everyone yet. It wouldn’t look good if they were just called a “wandering” or “random” band.

Luckily, a charity was doing a fundraiser. They weren’t very popular. Manager Zhang talked to the person in charge. She suggested that Sheng Yan’s band could help promote them and bring in crowds. In return, the band would be called a “Charity Rock Band.”

The charity loved the idea. They immediately arranged a public auction. This helped the band get a good name and allowed them to do some good work. It was a win for everyone.

They thought it would be a simple event, but as soon as they arrived, they met someone.

Xie Qingyao.

“Brother Sheng Yan!” Xie Qingyao greeted them warmly as soon as they arrived. “You have so much equipment. Let me help you.”

Sheng Yan thought he had made things clear with Xie Qingyao last time. He didn’t expect Xie Qingyao to be so bold as to show up again.

He was going to ignore him and leave, but he saw a familiar figure near the entrance. He stopped and asked Xie Qingyao, “What are you doing here?”

“I’m here to sell a painting,” Xie Qingyao smiled. “It’s for charity. The money will help poor students.”

The auction was for poor students. But Xie Qingyao didn’t come on his own. He saw the band’s post about the event and asked to join.

Last time, he sent Lu Mingyue a list of Sheng Yan’s “special hobbies.” He was sure a traditional man like Lu Mingyue wouldn’t accept it and would fight with Sheng Yan. This was his chance to step in.

“That’s good,” Sheng Yan actually praised him. He handed over a drum. “Help me carry this.”

“Okay, okay!” Xie Qingyao was thrilled. He thought his plan was working. He carried the drum with a big smile.

When Lu Mingyue arrived, he saw Sheng Yan. He wanted to say hello, but Xie Qingyao was faster.

Knowing that Sheng Yan usually disliked Xie Qingyao, Lu Mingyue wanted to see how Sheng Yan would reject him. Instead, he saw them talking and laughing while carrying equipment together.

Lu Mingyue was so angry he almost laughed. He had only been busy at the office for a few days, and Xie Qingyao had already found a way in?

Seeing them talk so much, Lu Mingyue couldn’t wait any longer. He walked over. “What a coincidence.”

“Mr. Lu!” Zheng Ke and Zhong Nai were surprised and greeted him.

Lu Mingyue nodded and looked at Sheng Yan and Xie Qingyao.

Xie Qingyao was just asking Sheng Yan about Mr. Lu. Seeing Lu Mingyue suddenly appear made his heart skip a beat.

But Sheng Yan had a small smile on his face. He said to Xie Qingyao, “Mr. Lu is right here.”

“Yes, I see,” Xie Qingyao said awkwardly. He was asking about Lu Mingyue to dig for information. He felt like he had been caught talking behind someone’s back.

“Are you looking for me?” Lu Mingyue looked at Xie Qingyao. He hadn’t forgotten the mean messages this person had sent him.

“No, just asking,” Xie Qingyao said, wanting to hide. He changed the subject. “Why is Mr. Lu at a place like this?”

Someone of Lu Mingyue’s status usually went to fancy, high-class charity balls, not a small public auction like this.

Lu Mingyue smiled at him. “I’m here to see my husband.”

He leaned toward Sheng Yan. Sheng Yan understood, and they naturally shared a kiss.

Xie Qingyao’s eyes went wide. What happened? Why are they kissing?! He thought they should be hating each other by now because of their different lifestyles. Why did they look more in love than before?

He didn’t understand. But it didn’t matter. The two ignored him and started talking to each other.

Sheng Yan asked, “Are you finished with work?”

Lu Mingyue said, “Almost.”

“And you? How long will you be busy?” Lu Mingyue asked.

“Until after the New Year,” Sheng Yan said.

Lu Mingyue’s smile froze for a second, but then he said, “After the New Year is fine too.”

“Why? Do you have plans?” Sheng Yan laughed.

“Yes,” Lu Mingyue admitted.

Sheng Yan shrugged. “Then I’ll miss them.”

Lu Mingyue said, “No. Plans are made by people. Whenever you are free, we can make it happen.”

Sheng Yan laughed again. The atmosphere between them was full of “pink bubbles.” Xie Qingyao stood there like a giant third wheel. He wanted to interrupt, but he couldn’t find the words. Finally, he left in shame.

The performance was about to start. Lu Mingyue went down and found a seat. He wasn’t wearing a suit today, just casual clothes. No one would guess he was a famous financial leader.

“Mr. Lu doesn’t look like he came just for Sheng Yan,” Xie Qingyao said. He had been sitting far away but moved closer when he saw Lu Mingyue alone. He was still trying to follow his “system’s” mission.

“I have a lot of money,” Lu Mingyue said. “Helping a charity once in a while is fine.”

Xie Qingyao was annoyed. So, what if you have money!

“Then why doesn’t Mr. Lu start his own charity?” Xie Qingyao asked, trying to cause trouble. If he had so much money, he should donate it all.

“I’m planning on it,” Lu Mingyue said.

He had thought about it. He and Sheng Yan were always too busy to see each other. So, he had started handing over his company work to others. He had enough money for his whole life. He didn’t need to control a big company anymore.

If he quit the company and did something meaningful, he would have more time for Sheng Yan. Charity was a good choice. It was flexible and important.

Lu Mingyue often thought that if there had been a charity to help them years ago, he could have gotten Sheng Yan the surgery he needed. Maybe everything would be different.

Even after many years, he remembered watching Sheng Yan’s heart rate slow down until he died. He was left alone in the world. His heart still hurt. If Sheng Yan hadn’t promised to come back, he didn’t know how he would have survived those years.

Sheng Yan’s performance ended. He had seen Lu Mingyue and Xie Qingyao talking from the stage. He walked over and asked, “What are you talking about?”

“Mr. Lu says he is starting his own charity,” Xie Qingyao said. He didn’t believe Lu Mingyue would actually give away his money. He wanted to make Lu Mingyue look bad.

“You want to do charity?” Sheng Yan sat next to Lu Mingyue.

“Yes,” Lu Mingyue said. “I quit my job at the company. In the future, I just want to follow my husband, watch his shows, see him grow, and do ‘old person’ things like charity.”

“Will you dislike me?” Lu Mingyue laughed. “This old and useless husband?”

Sheng Yan was surprised that this was what Lu Mingyue had been busy with. He smiled.

“I do dislike you,” Sheng Yan said.

Lu Mingyue stopped.

Sheng Yan tilted his head. “I dislike that you say these things. It makes me look young and immature.”

Lu Mingyue laughed. “Okay, I won’t say it anymore.”

Sheng Yan was satisfied. They were talking happily, making Xie Qingyao feel ignored. His plan to make Lu Mingyue look bad had failed.

Finally, he used his last card: “Brother Sheng Yan, do you remember the promise we made when we were kids?”

Sheng Yan’s mind remembered what the original owner of his body had said after being saved from a kidnapping: “Thank you, little brother Qingyao. You are my lifesaver. I can’t pay you back now, but when I grow up, I will marry you.”

Back then, everyone thought it was a joke. But the original Sheng Yan really tried to keep that promise until everything went wrong.

Suddenly, Sheng Yan felt a wave of guilt and sadness. He thought it was because of his system, but his system was currently locked away. He shouldn’t feel this way.

Is Xie Qingyao a ‘Host’ of another system? Sheng Yan wondered.

It made sense. These “Protagonist Systems” often picked people to steal energy from the world. If Xie Qingyao kept coming back like this, he was likely bound to a system.

“You said it yourself—that was a long time ago,” Sheng Yan said to Xie Qingyao. “Who takes a childhood promise seriously?”

Xie Qingyao looked at him in disbelief. Was Sheng Yan really this heartless?

“Besides, I thought about it more,” Sheng Yan said. “I was hiding back then. Why did the kidnappers miss you, who was out in the open, and grab me, who was hidden?”

Xie Qingyao’s eyes widened. He was panicking inside. Does he know? How?! The system said it hid the truth!

His own System No. 766 told him: “Stay calm! He is just testing you!”

Sheng Yan saw the flash of fear in Xie Qingyao’s eyes. He knew he was right.

“How would I know, Brother Sheng Yan?” Xie Qingyao said, trying to stay calm. “I was terrified too. Once I saw you taken away, I ran to your house to tell them.”

“Who knows?” Sheng Yan continued to pressure him. “The security tapes are gone, so I don’t know what really happened.”

Xie Qingyao swallowed hard, his mind racing.

“Not necessarily,” Lu Mingyue suddenly said. “If we find the old tapes, we might be able to fix them and see the footage.”

Xie Qingyao was sweating now. He knew Lu Mingyue had the power to do it. His system kept telling him the tapes were destroyed, but he was still scared.

He looked at them and said, “If you don’t trust me, go find the tapes.”

“But Brother Sheng Yan, is this really how you think of me?” Xie Qingyao acted hurt. “I didn’t mention the promise to get anything. I just wanted to remember the past. I didn’t think you would doubt me.”

He started to cry. “I have always cared about you. I would never hurt you.”

“I believe that,” Lu Mingyue nodded. “If you hadn’t sent me those ‘instruction videos,’ our life wouldn’t be so happy now.”

“Thanks.”

(Lu Mingyue: I remember everything you did!)
