The Dream Team felt like they were heroes!
They were determined to defend their comrades’ love. They won’t allow any outsiders to come between Li ZouXing and Gu WenCheng.
At this moment, they were not just fighting; they were fighting on behalf of Gu WenCheng.
“We don’t believe that the four of us can’t handle you alone!” The comrades talked as though they were tough, but in reality, they were deeply afraid. They protected Li ZouXing like how a mother hen would protect her chicks. “ZouXing, don’t come out. Trust us!”
Their gazes were vigilant.
Being stared down like this, Walter actually dared to chuckle.
Apart from Li ZouXing, who could read his mixed emotions, this laughter was a blatant provocation in the ears of the Dream Team.
Li ZouXing was equally speechless, but his teammates were too agitated to give him a chance to speak.
They were initially angry, but now they couldn’t even keep a straight face.
Walter looked at him with a fiery gaze. Without needing to say anything, both Li ZouXing and the Dream Team beside him felt his determination.
“Walter,” Si Wo Lin furrowed his brow and blocked Walter’s line of sight, “ZouXing and WenCheng have a great relationship. While the military hasn’t arrived yet, you better leave immediately.”
It’s more of a scare tactic. Even if the military arrives, what can they do to Walter?
However, Walter went a bit off-topic, “How good is their relationship?”
Originally, he had summoned the courage to lay it all out for Li ZouXing. He knew that his boyfriend was upset. Gu WenCheng was feeling uncertain. But when this situation arose, he felt a bit more at ease, and he had the idea of cooperating with his teammates to make Li ZouXing feel more comfortable.
Ji Yu quickly turned to look at Li ZouXing and said, “ZouXing, show some affection.”
The underlying message was for him to display their love.
They truly were great interstellar teammates. Even by accident, they managed to help the couple resolve their conflict and misunderstandings, providing them with the time for a sincere declaration of their love.
Li ZouXing started to show affection towards Walter. Just after their argument, he wasn’t sure what to say, but Walter, who was eagerly awaiting his response, had eyes that rivaled the stars. So, he said, “Yes, we’re in love.”
“Is that it?” Ling Nian gave him a disapproving look. “Keep going.”
Xi Nan was almost kneeling, “What happened to your usual lovey-dovey skills?”
“ZouXing, you can’t go all shy when you see Walter!”
Li ZouXing had no choice but to continue.
“My boyfriend is handsome, his voice is sweet,” his gaze unintentionally softened, which looked incredibly charming to Walter. “He’s adorable when he tries to kiss me, and he’s cute when he wraps his legs around me. We’ve done everything couples can do, and there’s no room for a third person in between.”
Who wrapped their legs around you?
Who went all weak in the knees?
Is he really… cute?
He’s a grown man, and you’re calling him cute?
The face beneath the mask turned red, and Walter seemed like a pervert, his whole face exuding a sense of spring.
Thankfully, his face was covered.
Not only him, but his teammates also blushed.
Si Wo Lin, with no shame, asked, “What intimate things can guys do with each other?”
Everyone fell silent, not sure whether to scold Li ZouXing for being shameless or Si Wo Lin for asking such intrusive questions.
Could they even answer such a question?!
What if they corrupted them!
Li ZouXing was about to speak when Ling Nian firmly stopped him, “Don’t say it!”
He was entirely opposed, “Please, do not tell me what intimate things guys can do.”
“Why?” Si Wo Lin looked at him disapprovingly, “Ling Nian, aren’t you curious?”
…Curious, of course, but it always feels safer to know less.
Ji Yu, with red ears, reminded his teammates, “Stay vigilant, don’t let Walter sneak up on us.”
Li ZouXing’s sweet confession to Gu WenCheng would surely make Walter back off, right?
The infamous Star Thief wouldn’t resort to strong advances, would he?
But Walter was about to disappoint them. Instead of stopping, he took two steps forward.
The closer he got to Li ZouXing, the faster his heart raced.
On one hand, he worried that his boyfriend hadn’t calmed down yet. On the other hand, he was stirred by the words and charmed by the sight.
From another perspective, hearing Li ZouXing say sweet things was so beautiful. Walter began to regret his earlier thoughts.
Li ZouXing didn’t care if he was Walter or not, but he still made him angry.
Thinking about it this way, his chest felt bittersweet.
He had never seen Li ZouXing angry before, and Gu WenCheng was confident that no one else had either. The sight of him being so furious for him today gave Gu WenCheng a kind of perverse satisfaction.
Secretly, he was quite pleased.
Walter’s steps were not fast, but exceptionally resolute. The faces of the Dream Team became increasingly serious, and they eventually took the initiative to attack.
However, in the blink of an eye, they were all immobilized by Walter’s mental power.
They were right there, but they could only watch as Walter insulted Li ZouXing.
They felt sorry for Gu WenCheng and Li ZouXing.
“Stay the hell away from him!” Xi Nan’s eyes turned red, and he was on the verge of tears. “He’s just a young man; you can come touch me, don’t touch him!”
Xi Nan’s self-sacrificing loyalty made Walter pause in his tracks.
He was startled by Xi Nan.
Li ZouXing, seeing them like this, couldn’t help but feel a mix of laughter and heartache. But once again, his words were interrupted by his teammates. Xi Nan, with tears and snot all over his face, believed that this old man had stopped in his tracks for him, for a chance to touch him. He had prepared to sacrifice himself for his teammates but was also scared. “Come on, old man! Don’t pressure ZouXing; pressure me!”
With his words repeatedly interrupted, Li ZouXing’s temples throbbed.
The others were influenced by Xi Nan’s train of thought and looked at Walter with disgust and anger. “Don’t touch Xi Nan and ZouXing! They’re too young! Touch us!”
The scene was particularly tragic; they seemed to be vying to sacrifice themselves as if their brotherly bond was touching and overwhelming.
Walter was left speechless by their words. What was this talk? Did they see him as a lecher who couldn’t resist any attractive man?
He was determined, but only for Li ZouXing.
In the end, he pretended not to hear anything and walked directly to Li ZouXing.
Li ZouXing stared straight at him.
Gu WenCheng did the same, and after a long while, he said in a hoarse voice, “There’s no risk; this is a decision I made after careful consideration.”
It was amazing how a single sentence could reignite his anger.
But as soon as Walter finished speaking, he raised his head and, through the mask, met Li ZouXing’s lips.
Li ZouXing didn’t move, accepting his kiss.
However, the reactions of their teammates became even more intense. “Damn it, Walter!”
“Don’t you dare touch him!”
They felt a mixture of urgency and anger, watching Walter have his way with Li ZouXing.
One second, two seconds, they were still locked in a kiss.
The scene appeared harmonious, but their teammates’ eyes were filled with tears.
WenCheng, we’re sorry.
Looking at Li ZouXing, this kid was clearly frightened by Walter and could only stand there obediently, letting Walter kiss him.
Their excited emotions finally brought the two people in this intimate moment back to their senses. Gu WenCheng truly began to feel sorry for his teammates, but besides that sympathy, he was also feeling a bit mischievous.
It was like he was cheating on himself, betraying himself. However, the more their teammates scolded him, the more they defended the love between him and Li ZouXing.
He swallowed hard but couldn’t resist the urge to do something naughty. From the small gap in his mask, he extended a pink tongue and licked Li ZouXing’s lips.
Li ZouXing’s expression became restrained, his anger extinguished, while their teammates’ expressions twisted.
Si Wo Lin’s eyes were red. He was the biggest fan of the official CP between Gu WenCheng and Li ZouXing. He was suffering greatly now. “ZouXing will never like you! He likes WenCheng!”
Oh no, they helplessly watched as Walter, this perverted old man, truly defiled Li ZouXing.
“…” A mix of sadness and anger.
“Who is WenCheng?” Walter chuckled softly. “This kid is my guy, and he still bears my mark.”
Li ZouXing stiffly said, “I have a lover, jerk.”
When Gu WenCheng played along, Li ZouXing admitted defeat. He managed to put on a melodramatic show in the Star Thief’s territory.
But it was better than his cautious approach. It’s just that their dear teammates were forced into supporting roles.
Xi Nan cried so hard he had the hiccups, his face a sorry sight. “They, they… these Star Thieves are getting more outrageous one by one.”
Ling Nian, with a dark face, said, “Why did I ever admire him in the first place?”
Their attention was focused on Walter and Li ZouXing, but suddenly, Ling Nian furrowed his brows. “Oh no!”
“Mental control!” he exclaimed. “ZouXing didn’t lay a finger on him, and I can’t think of any other explanation.”
The others were taken aback, and Ji Yu mumbled, “No wonder I always thought their conversation sounded… like flirting.”
As he mentioned the last two words, his expression turned odd, and he realized it wasn’t just his imagination.
After some discussion, they were sure that Li ZouXing had been hypnotized.
They struggled harder against the mental bonds, attempting to stimulate Li ZouXing into regaining consciousness. “ZouXing, wake up a bit!”
“The person in front of you is Walter, a Star Thief, not WenCheng. Look, he’s still wearing a mask, ZouXing!”
The Dream Team didn’t notice that as they struggled, the mental bonds grew wider, fearing they might harm themselves.
Li ZouXing didn’t want to distress his teammates any further, and Gu WenCheng felt the same way.
When they first met the North Star, Gu WenCheng thought he would never reveal that he was Walter to anyone, but now…
They exchanged a glance and almost instantly understood each other’s intent.
Li ZouXing put his arm around Walter’s shoulder and patted him on the back, facing his teammates. “Allow me to introduce. This is my boyfriend.”
Was that clear enough?
However, despite the clear hint, their teammates turned ashen after hearing it, their lips trembling.
“It’s over,” Xi Nan’s voice trembled with a crying tone. “It’s over. Ling Nian, you were right.”
Li ZouXing had indeed been hypnotized.
A sense of defeat and despair overwhelmed them. Even the strongest among them, Ling Nian, had teary eyes.
No one could control the human mind as precisely as Walter, and, of course, there was no way to break the hypnosis.
It was highly likely Li ZouXing would forever believe that Walter was Gu WenCheng.
The bleak reality hit the young men in an instant.
What should they do? What should they do now?
Could WenCheng and they be stronger than Walter?
Their teammates, who had been in high spirits just moments ago, were heavily struck, completely despondent. This state startled Li ZouXing. “What’s wrong with you? Didn’t I explain it clearly?”
He explained it again, fearing that his teammates wouldn’t believe it. “Believe me. Walter is Gu WenCheng.”
But their teammates’ faces turned even grayer, their anger intensifying. They glared at Walter and through gritted teeth said, “You hypnotized him to make him think you’re WenCheng!”
Their love was just too tragic. This was simply too heartbreaking.
They all felt heartache for Gu WenCheng now.
Having their beloved one under hypnosis and acknowledging the enemy as their lover was even more heart-wrenching than the most emotionally intense melodramas on StarNet.
Li ZouXing was genuinely bewildered this time. “Hey, brothers, I’m telling the truth. Walter is WenCheng.”
But his unwavering certainty only intensified their pain.
Being forcibly hypnotized, and compelled to shift their affections, ZouXing was in a pitiable situation.
Walter, rarely in sync with their brain frequencies, guessed what they were thinking and couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
This time, he didn’t deliberately lower his voice, so his laughter was that of a clear, young voice, a laugh that the Dream Team was very familiar with.
Teammates who had spent day and night together naturally recognized the voice. They gasped, staring at Walter in shock.
Oh my.
This darned Star Thief had even hypnotized them together?!
Even if he hypnotized them into hearing his voice as WenCheng’s voice, they would never believe that he was WenCheng!
