Five years ago, Li Jingzhe personally turned his teammates into monsters in the dungeon.
That was the most selfish decision he had ever made in his life - in order to survive, he turned the people who were most important to him into corpses that were neither human nor ghosts. Then he ran away, hiding in the crowd with this secret, pretending that he was just a useless restorer with fading powers.
When Gu Chengfei came to the door, he smiled like a dandy: "I heard that you can repair things? Help me repair someone."
Li Jingzhe had no choice. Gu Chengfei held his secret - the body hidden in the ruins - and forced him to sign the agreement. He thought it was just a deal: he used his powers to help Gu Chengfei maintain the vital signs of the deceased, and Gu Chengfei covered his tracks for him.
But Gu Chengfei didn't tell him that the "alive" father lying on the hospital bed was just a chess piece to seize the throne.
In the dungeon, Gu Chengfei pulled him back from the edge of death time and time again, saying "Don't die, whoever will help me work after you die", but his hands were tighter than anyone else's. Li Jingzhe's white hair had been dyed red by blood too many times, and Gu Chengfei wiped it clean for him every time.
He thought he was just being used.
Until he realized that the way Gu Chengfei looked at him had changed a long time ago.
"Do you know how I spent the past five years?" Li Jingzhe put the repair knife against Gu Chengfei's heart, his voice was as hoarse as breaking, "While repairing others, I hid them at the same time - do you think you are the first person to take advantage of me?"
Gu Chengfei didn't hide, he just raised his hand and stroked his messy white hair, smiling mischievously: "Then do you want to turn me into a monster too?"
In this way, I will always be yours.
Later Li Jingzhe left.
When Gu Chengfei chased into the dungeon, the entire space collapsed. In the smoke, he saw the white-haired figure kneeling in the center of the ruins, holding the eternally sleeping corpse in his arms. He raised his head to look at him, his eyes red as if they were dripping blood.
"Why are you here again?"
Gu Chengfei stretched out his hand and said in a very soft voice: "Let me practice it for you."
If you can't repair it well, I'll take care of you.
Purpose: redemption
