Quick Transmigration: Homewrecker System! Chapter 277 277: 10.18

Jas Grind sat on a chair on the balcony on the third floor. He was staring with his empty eyes at the beautiful lake view. He wanted to swim there or walked run around the lakeside. But he was confined in this golden cage by a crazy mafia lord.

"Enjoying the view?" Long Zhen asked. He sat beside Jas Grind and gazed at the lake scenery in solemn. "It is indeed a beautiful view. No wonder you are here for so long," Long Zhen comnted.

Jas Grind gave him a glance and continued ignoring him. Long Zhen sighed. He pinched Jas Grind's cheek and asked, "Tell , what do you want? Do you want so gas? Or so luxury goods? I can buy you anything."

"I want to buy my freedom," Jas Grind replied sharply. He stared at the lake, but his gaze was staring at nothing, just like his life for a while. It was like a routine of nothing.

Long Zhen shook his head, "I cannot do that. You know that I need you to stay here obediently," he said as he patted Jas Grind's head.

"Be a good boy and obey , okay?" Long Zhen said.

Jas Grind glared at him and brushed Long Zhen's hand. He got up from the chair and walked towards the railing. He leaned on the railing, which was made out of thin and fragile glass. "What if I don't want to be a good boy?"

"What do you an?" Long Zhen asked suspiciously. He got up from his chair and walked towards Jas Grind. Jas Grind warned Long Zhen to stay back, "One more step, and I will jump."

Long Zhen thought it was just an empty threat. But Jas Grind was not joking when he said that he wanted to jump. When Long Zhen advanced with only one step, Jas Grind already climbed the railing.

Long Zhen got alerted imdiately, "J—Jamie, step down."

"Don't call Jamie. My na is Jas Grind! Nobody is allowed to call Jamie except my close friends or lover!" Jas Grind yelled at Long Zhen. Long Zhen's heart was pinched because of that, but he shook his head. This was not the best ti to be grieving over his heart.

Because Jas Grind seed to be serious now. Jas Grind often did this kind of threat, but he never actually did it. Maybe because he was also scared of death itself. But fright now, Jas Grind didn't seem to have hesitation in his eyes.

Jas Grind looked down on the rocky cliff. It was a calm lake, but he should die imdiately if he fell head first from this height. Jas Grind comnted, "Long Zhen, it's very rocky down below. I think I will be dead imdiately if I jump from this height."

"DON'T!" Long Zhen yelled. "J—Jamie… No, Jas Grind, please listen to and step down, okay? We can talk about this. I will give everything you want, I promise!" Long Zhen tried to persuade Jas Grind.

Jas Grind finally glanced at Long Zhen. He scoffed and said, "I told you before, the more you tried to please with your money, the more you will lose ."

"Long Zhen, you locked here with all your money, your luxury, and everything that you think I will need. But you don't want to hear what I truly want," Jas Grind said. His eyes started to get teary because of the emotion that he kept for so long.

"Long Zhen, tell now, do you think of as a pet that you can please with only money? I am not an animal that you can use to fill your empty house!" Jas Grind finally let out his tears stread down his cheek. He was already fed up with Long Zhen and his craziness.

He had been locked in this place for five months already, and there was no sign of Long Zhen to develop trust for him. "Do you think of as a human or an animal? If you only want to torture , then I think you should've tortured my body until I die, not torturing my soul like this."

"Do you really think of as an animal? A pet?"

…

Long Zhen was silenced with Jas Grind's sudden burst of emotion. He must've been enduring this for so long.

"LONG ZHEN, ANSWER !" Jas Grind shouted.

Long Zhen gulped. "I… I… don't know…"

True, Long Zhen finally realized that he was also unsure about it. He locked Jas Grind here because he was angry at Jas Grind for betraying him. But at the sa ti, he was also uncertain about his own feeling.

He wanted to torture Jas Grind in a literal way, but he kept on hesitating, and this was what happened. He locked Jas Grind and acted like they were an old married couple. Long Zhen knew that it was just a façade for his own insecurity and loneliness.

Indeed, he used Jas Grind to fill that empty gap in his heart. Maybe he never actually liked Jas Grind. Perhaps he did like him, just a bit.

But one thing for sure, he treated Jas Grind like a pet.

[Pupa: Ding! Fateter increases to 0%.]

[Pupa: Ding! Breakter increases to 0%]

FINALLY!]

[Pupa: After five months, you finally increase his Fateter and Breakter to 0%. That is pitiful progress, you know.]

[Pupa, I literally did everything I could to increase those stupid ters! Don't you rember my last attempt?]

[Pupa: Oh, you an the starving attempt?]

[Yes, I tried starving myself to make him pity .]

[Pupa: You only last for one day before begging Long Zhen to give you food.]

[Well, you need the energy to be a drama queen.]

Yunyu looked down at the cliff below. He was absolutely terrified that he clenched on the railing as hard as he could. Who would've thought that he needed to be this extre to finally incited so feeling inside Long Zhen's dead heart?

[Okay, what now? Do I need to jump? But I don't want to restart this gruelling world!]

[Pupa: Just jump.]

[What? Will sothing happen if I jump? Is there a giant trampoline down below?]

[Pupa: Not really. I just want to see you died a horrible death.]

[Why are you so vicious to ! We are partners! I am your host. We are bound for life!]

[Pupa: My partner is only this sweet restart button.]

Long Zhen saw so hesitation in Jas Grind's eyes. He slowly advances to approach Jas grind.

"I said, step back!" Jas Grind warned again.

Long Zhen halted his step and stared anxiously at Jas Grind. "I… I will release you after this, I promise. I will give you a new identity, and you can start a new life as a random person, okay?"

Jas Grind's gloomy face finally brightened slightly. "You are not lying, right?"

Long Zhen's heart was pinched when he saw Jas Grind's bright face again.

'You truly hate , huh? I am the one who hates you first, but how could it turn like this…' Long Zhen pondered. Like a maggot in his heart, Jas Grind's smile only applied deeper wound inside his heart.

"I'm not lying…" Long Zhen replied. But he knew that he was definitely lying right now.

Because he already planned to lock Jas Grind to an actual cage if he could catch Jas Grind right now.

'I can't let him try this dangerous stuff again in the future. Maybe a giant steel cage should do the trick...' Long Zhen thought

Jas Grind stared at Long Zhen for a mont, and he finally nodded. He signed in relief. "You must keep your promise, Long Zhen."

Jas Grind climbed the railing again. But the mont he yanked himself towards Long Zhen, Jas Grind found that his hand was sweating a lot.

Jas Grind lost his grip on the glass railing and slipped.

"JAMIE!"
