Pretending to Be Delicate [Infinite]

[Complete] [Currently revising and fixing typos] [Please favorite my new story, "The Eleven Commandments [Criminal Investigation]"]

As the Chi family fell into decline, Chi Wei drew a card in his sleep and was transported to a place known as the [Gambling Den].

-

Every game of chance has an ultimate boss. If you can kill him, you win the grand prize. At the same time, your real-world self receives a generous reward, allowing you to change things beyond human control.

After his first time leaving the Gambling Den, his greedy uncle, who had coveted the Chi family's fortune, mysteriously disappeared, and the company returned to its rightful owner.

After his second time leaving, the company, which had been on the decline, miraculously bounced back.

After his third time leaving, countless business partners eagerly reached out, and Chi Wei became a rising star among the capital's elite.

No one knew what he had encountered in those games.

A cursed ghost ship, an evil-god-worshipping village obsessed with fertility, a strange school crawling with moths... and a beautiful young man who was exactly his type.

-

The year Chi Wei met Ye Chu was the first time he entered the Gambling Den.

He wagered his life and courage.

He won a defiance of fate and a comeback against all odds.

"The Book of Exodus in the Old Testament says that when Jehovah created the world, he established ten commandments. Those who disobey them will be punished."

Xi Ye looked around, his gaze settling on the unremarkable, fair, gaunt face of the young man in the corner.

"I'm not telling you this to discuss religion. I'm telling you that we're tougher than they are. Once you join the Criminal Investigation Division of the Runnan Municipal Public Security Bureau, you'll have eleven commandments to follow."

"The eleventh commandment is, "

The man licked his lips and smiled faintly.

"Don't make me angry."

Seven years ago, while working undercover in the Criminal Investigation Division, Shi Qichen was sent into a prison on a mission to observe the notorious criminal Bo Xiao, a renowned criminal psychologist.

The only lead they had was

He liked men.

No one knew what happened during those three months.

Three months later, Shi Qichen walked out of the prison alone and was hit by a truck, leaving him severely disabled. Then he vanished without a trace.

Turn me over

Let my heart worship the sun

Let my stomach and digestive system sprawl across the lawn

Let the purple-blooded darkness evaporate

Fill my lungs with blue sky / Let the black stallion trample me into the mud

Use white wooden chopsticks to feed my heart and brain

To my lover

Xi Ye & Shi Qichen

Psycho & seductive beauty
