Inside the cave.
Lin Hao looked at Alpha and Xi’er with a smile. This was the first time his family had supported him in doing what he loved. His heart instantly softened, feeling a surge of warmth.
He realized that this rebirth was both a punishment and a salvation. Here, he had family who supported him unconditionally.
These were the happiest days of his life.
He would cherish them.
Xi’er looked at the King’s smiling face, and her lips unconsciously curved upwards. Indeed, she still couldn’t refuse the King. As long as the King was happy, and this time, she swore with her life that she wouldn’t let what happened before happen again.
She walked slowly to Lin Hao and looked into his eyes, saying, “My King, I will surely protect you with my life.”
Lin Hao’s mind went blank for a moment upon hearing Xi’er’s words. Then, he smiled at the beautiful woman before him and said, “Thank you, Xi’er.”
I will protect you all too.
Lin Hao silently added in his heart.
Even if it cost him his life, he would protect them.
Alpha, standing beside them, also walked up to Lin Hao, trying to relax his tone as he said, “And me, My King.”
“Shall we discuss what I should stream?” Lin Hao couldn’t stand the sentimental scene anymore. He feared that if it continued, he might start crying.
No, a true man shouldn’t cry.
He quickly changed the subject, turned towards the stone bed, beckoned to the two of them, took out the Star Net, and considered what kind of streamer to be.
Alpha and Xi’er followed Lin Hao to the stone bed, looking down at the person before them. The King was truly captivating, no matter how much they looked.
Lin Hao, engrossed in fiddling with the Star Net, didn’t notice their gazes.
The tenderness in their eyes was almost overflowing.
It could be enough to raise fish.
After searching for a long time, among thousands of streamer types, Lin Hao finally found a type he could be. He held the Star Net and came before Alpha and Xi’er, saying, “What do you think, should I be a game streamer or a scenery streamer?”
He was decent at playing games, and the scenery on this planet was also beautiful. Being a scenery streamer wouldn’t be bad either. He couldn’t decide between the two for a moment, so he decided to ask them.
Asking for his family’s opinion made him so happy.
Thinking of this, Lin Hao looked expectantly at the two insects before him. Seeing the King’s sparkling eyes, the two insects standing opposite him instantly froze.
The King seemed to rely on them so much.
This was the only thought in both their minds.
Xi’er came up to Lin Hao and said, “My King, whatever you choose, I will support it.”
She looked at the two options on the Star Net. It seemed like she wouldn’t need to interact with humans, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Safety was important, and as long as the King was happy, that was all that mattered.
Alpha, standing beside her, kept his eyes fixed on the two options, his face unreadable.
After a few minutes, Alpha stepped in front of Lin Hao, looked down at the boy before him, and said, “Which one doesn’t require you to show your face?” His clear voice carried a hint of concern.
This boy before him didn't want others to see him.
So, choosing one that didn’t require showing his face would be fine.
Lin Hao looked at the Star Net in his hand and considered Alpha’s words. Although most game streamers now chose to show their faces, there were still a few who didn’t.
So, he’d choose this one.
Having made up his mind, Lin Hao looked up, brought the Star Net in his hand to Alpha and Xi’er, and said, “Let’s choose game streamer. This one doesn’t require showing my face, and I can play games. It’s very relaxing.”
The two insects opposite him nodded upon hearing the satisfactory answer, then retreated to the King’s side, quietly admiring the King’s perfect profile.
Truly, they would never tire of looking at him.
Lin Hao, sitting on the stone bed, accidentally activated the Star Net’s camera function and was instantly startled. Was this avatar in the Star Net, this weakling, really him?
Black hair, skin as delicate as a baby’s, a complexion like milk, and those eyes… why did they look so tearful?
Why was he so effeminate?
This was Lin Hao’s first impression upon seeing this appearance. He immediately turned off the Star Net’s camera function and looked helplessly at the cave ceiling.
Then, he comforted himself in his heart. Fortunately, he didn’t have to show his face. Otherwise, if such a weakling appearance were seen by others, he’d have no face to live.
He wondered if he should sign with a company.
Based on the analysis of streamers on the Star Net, if he didn’t sign, he wouldn’t earn any money. But signing meant he had to show himself in person. It was too difficult.
His gaze fell on the two insects watching him obediently. He immediately dismissed the idea of signing. Getting them to let him out was already a problem, and going to human gathering places? That would be like dancing on his own grave.
He’d think about that later.
For now, he’d continue browsing online for experiences and precautions shared by other streamers.
As Lin Hao was browsing, a pop-up window suddenly appeared on the Star Net.
Just as Lin Hao was about to click on it, he saw the title of the pop-up: #Crown Prince Enters the Hospital Again, What Exactly Caused This?# His hand stopped in mid-air.
What happened to him? Why was he suddenly in the hospital?
This thought suddenly popped into his mind, and he clicked on it. He scanned quickly but couldn't grasp the main point of this trending topic. This marketing account was really useless.
Fortunately, there was a photo.
Qin Mohan was wearing a blue-striped hospital gown, his hands leaning on the window, gazing out, lost in thought.
After seeing this photo,
Lin Hao exclaimed, “He’s really hospitalized!”
He wasn’t like this before.
Why was he so frail now?
But even a starving camel is bigger than a horse. Looking at the muscles in the photo, although his complexion was pale, there was still a sense of firmness.
He casually closed the trending topic and continued to look for streamer experiences.
A few minutes later, he found that the things shared by these streamers were somewhat similar, so he stopped watching.
He turned off the Star Net and lay on the stone bed, staring blankly at the cave ceiling.
For some reason, Qin Mohan’s figure kept appearing in his mind.
And the rhythm was becoming clearer.
Lin Hao shook his head vigorously, sat up with a flip, and rubbed his forehead, trying to stop thinking about the person he no longer wished to associate with.
Why would he think of him?
Lin Hao propped his head up with both hands and pondered this question carefully.
Meanwhile, outside the cave.
The faces of the two human companions could no longer show any expression.
After all, too many strange things had happened in the past few days. Any one of them, if spoken of, would be considered madness.
It was too fantastical.
Li Huan leaned against the wall, looking at the sky, and said in a low voice, “Bai Bai, do you think we are dreaming?”
Or perhaps a nightmare.
Bai Chen next to him ignored Li Huan and looked at the sky with the same posture, his eyes narrowed, lost in thought.
Seeing that his childhood friend wasn’t paying attention, he turned his head to Bai Chen and said, “Son, are you not listening to your father again?”
Bai Chen finally acknowledged Li Huan, giving him a look of “idiot.”
