One CEO, suddenly so angered, slams his hand to stand up. There is an echo, going for miles;
Shocked, Her Highness Elizabeth’s unfocused pupils suddenly revert.
Murong Jihua’s fingers are shaking. He clasps his hands together and heaves a weary sigh. Then, he sinks back into his seat, as if his strength has been sapped.
Elizabeth: ???
He Jünle: …
“Your Highness, I have been deeply disappointed; I can feel my chest tightening at this predicament——”
He suddenly raises his head, and He Jünle is surprised to find his eyes reddened,
“Is your passion, and motivation for knowledge, for the secrets of genetics, for the limits and the ultimate, unknown future of humanity, merely so shallow?”
He Jünle gets it already, and his lips perk up slightly.
・
“Eh? Eh?”
Her Highness Elizabeth seems shocked from across the screen. She widens her watery blue eyes, and begins defending herself,
“¡No! Qué dices you?! For mi, there is nothing more importante than el secreto of the genes! I really am struggling to understand what usted means here. Yo…”
Murong Jihua’s next angered yell immediately cuts her ‘excuse’ short,
“——Then how dare you, to dismiss the merger of the two most perfect set of genes because of mere gender limitations?!”
“Eh?”
“Do you know how much work we have already committed solely for the purpose of exchanging our genes? Do you know why I hid him from public view all this time? You do not; you know nothing!”
Murong Jihua pulls He Jünle into his embrace, saying,
“Do you know how much his body has contributed in order to facilitate the birth of the perfect baby?
Every night, night after night, there have been countless experiments, countless attempts at artificial wombs and inseminations. His body has been stretched to its limits. His mental fortitude has been put under strenuous pressure, again and again——
See? He is unable to even sit up properly in a car like a normal person!”
He Jünle, who was about to struggle free “??? [REDACTED] [REDACTED]”
——Yet, he can only go with the flow and relax his muscles, lying in Murong Jihua’s embrace like the weakened, ill soul he said he is.
Her Highness Elizabeth, looking at He ‘The Crippled From Experiments’ Jünle, has a complicated face right now,
Murong Jihua ‘caresses’ the ‘pale, emaciated’ face of his beloved, and bites his lips hard to ‘painfully and yet proudly’ declare,
(TL: The section numbering is wrong starting from here in the raws, going back to 313 instead; for the sake of not having to mentally drill the difference into my mind, let’s keep it the same as the raws)
“It is precisely because of the limitations of modern biology, that humanity has been unable to produce the most excellent specimen!”
The Princess’ face turns right back into one of fanatical passion as she begins to concur, “you, you’re right! As expected of Mr Murong! Perdon, I know you are excellent enough, but I still seem to have vastly underestimated your capabilities.”
“Uh… as long as you understand.”
Murong Jihua gives a slightly awkward smile; his entire back is drenched in cold sweat. And he can feel the ‘beloved’ in his embrace shaking ever so slightly.
“Then is there anything I can do to help? Machinery? Tools? I doubt Mu-dage lacks money, but if you don’t want to have to move private funds, I can arrange for His Majesty, my Father to divert funds from the National Treasury——”
“No no no no need, Your Highness…”
“That would not do! If I do not participate in some way in this grand scheme to produce the perfect genetic offspring, I will die! How about this,
I will arrange for the most eminent biologists of our generation to attack the limitations of sex on procreation from its very foundational theory. And the two of you, under our theoretical guidance——
Will be in charge of impregnation!”
Oh my holy baJesus Jade Emperor fighting over the bro-con’s brotherly bodhisattva,
This game world of an otome-oriented dating sim seems to be going more and more off the rails?!
After finally ending the call that was about a whole century long despite its three-minute duration, Murong Jihua finally seems to relax a little. He pushes He Jünle away a little, who is currently trembling with laughter on his body.
“… Get up, stop laughing. Your posture is a little dangerous. It’s nothing even if we’re photographed, right, but it’s still public indecency.”
“Hoho… That was interesting. I didn’t expect that, even if Mr CEO goes bust, you can certainly find a living in the entertainment industry, no?”
“Thanks for the compliment. If only my little white lotus can see… mm?”
Murong Jihua suddenly freezes up.
He really hasn’t been paying attention for a very long time, but the game logo at the upper left corner of his eye… hasn’t ever blinked for a really long time now, right?
——‘A Restless Mad Love: The Bossy CEO’s Beloved Little White Lotus’
It is still a half-transparent light pink, still a little icon curled up in his vision.
Uh, he definitely OoC’ed a lot recently, so why, why didn’t it warn him at all?
Did it break?
‘Snap.’
The paparazzi, who endured countless difficulties to finally hide in a corner of the car park “…”
“Sorry uh, I forgot the flash…”
“…”
“He Jünle, do you mind the entertainment tabloids posting something akin to ‘Exposed in Pictures: CEO and His Lover Publically Having Car Sex’… tomorrow?”
