Urban Soldier Young Master

Chapter 1081 - 1080: Frenzied Acting

As the name suggests, bone china is called bone china because it contains "bone" ingredients. Normally, bone china should contain more than twenty-five percent herbivore bone ash, but...This particular cup is different. To be precise, many tableware used by Chu Chengrui are quite unlike ordinary bone china.

In the bone china products he uses, it's not herbivore bone ash, but bone ash from various rare birds and beasts. Otherwise, how could it match his current identity, status, and the ambition that has burned fiercely in his heart for years?

Take this coffee cup, for example; it contains bone ash from the skulls of bald eagles, Siberian tigers, and killer whales. According to Chu Chengrui, these three animals represent the sky, the land, and the ocean.

What nonsense about them symbolizing the national bird of the star-spangled banner, the King of the Jungle, and the ruler of the ocean. These proud kings in their respective domains of nature, their heads deemed noble by humans, are only worthy of being made into his small cup.

Unfortunately, Chu Chengrui couldn't find a dragon; if he could have truly found one, he even wished to hang the dragon's head in his room, using its skin and bones to create a real dragon chair!

Still speaking about this coffee cup, this thing originally came from Western civilization to the East. To use the "Five-clawed Golden Dragon," an eastern mythical beast, as the pattern on a coffee cup might seem mismatched to others, but Chu Chengrui doesn't see it that way. Why should he adhere to others' rules?

He wants to create rules! Or, he wants to become the rules!

He wants all beings under heaven to crawl at his feet. He wants to establish a civilization of his own; as for existing civilizations, if they are pleasing to the eye, useful to the hand, and sound pleasant to the ear, they will be kept; if not, they will be destroyed, as if they never existed.

Actually... in the bone china utensils of Chu Chengrui, not only is there bone ash from those rare birds and beasts, but also mixed in... is the ash of those who became his experimental subjects and eventually his sacrifices, or some who once were his enemies… their human ashes.

The so-called "grind bones into ashes," these four words, in the actions of Chu Chengrui, can be said to be interpreted in its entirety.

Every piece of tableware he uses to hold exquisite meals and drinks contains countless wronged souls. Others might see this as absolutely insane to the extreme, the mere thought of which could make one vomit out yesterday's meal, but Chu Chengrui sees it as an immense enjoyment, representing his supreme status, representing his unparalleled nobility.

Chu Chengrui gently placed the coffee cup back onto the table, producing a sound that was naturally soft, yet at this moment seemed particularly jarring—a "thud."

"Little Chu, I'm someone who's always reasonable. Tell me, what other conditions would you like to propose? As long as it's not too excessive, in light of the sincere cooperation between us, I will certainly try my best to meet them."

Chu Chengrui said with a smiling face. If the soft "thud" sound of the coffee cup placed on the table earlier could be said to ripple the calm lake with a gentle breeze, then his current words were like a sudden freeze that sealed the ripples.

The atmosphere was incomparably stagnant, more oppressive than the earlier silence. Even watching from the big screen, Chu Chengrui seemed to see the other side with Chu Ge's feelings of helplessness, sorrow, and despair.

As for unwillingness? Haha... Chu Chengrui certainly doesn't believe Chu Ge's heart holds such emotions.

Because it's all laid bare, Chu Ge is absolutely without recourse, under absolute disadvantage, besides yielding, he really has no second path to choose.

It's like making a weak five-year-old compete in strength with an elephant—is there any comparability in that?

Now, the situation is, Chu Ge is like that weak five-year-old, and even one that is bound hand and foot.

As for him, Chu Chengrui, and everything here together form an elephant, one with long tusks, huge like a small mountain mammoth!

So... what could Chu Ge possibly be unwilling about?

"I..."

Chu Ge slowly raised his head, which had been lowered just now, released his tightly bitten lips, and the weak glimmer in his eyes finally extinguished completely as Chu Chengrui firmly believed, silently, quietly, he sighed a long sigh, and with great difficulty spoke a single word.

"Speak, don't stand on ceremony, after all... you are both an important experimental material to me and a young man I admire."

The victor is always generous, Chu Chengrui smiled faintly, and these words were indeed spoken sincerely.

"I..." Chu Ge took a deep breath, "I want you to promise that during the experiment, you will not leave any irreparable permanent damage to my body."

Chu Ge's expression was solemn, and he spoke almost word by word. When he finished, he began breathing heavily, as if uttering this sentence had drained all his strength.

"That is certainly not a problem; this point, I had promised you long ago, hadn't I?"

Chu Chengrui wore the most sincere smile on his face, nodding straightforwardly, speaking with certainty and conviction.

However, in Chu Chengrui's heart, he scoffed at Chu Ge's request, and the promise he made was as ridiculous as a tiger vowing to become a vegetarian.

In Chu Chengrui's biochemical research, many things might be used. The basics like blood, skin tissue, and muscle tissue definitely wouldn't affect Chu Ge's body, but... what if it involves bone marrow, spinal cord, brain matter, or even internal organs?

Of course, to be honest, Chu Chengrui also hoped to conduct his research without causing any harm to Chu Ge's body, because to him, Chu Ge's body was nothing short of a priceless treasure, but such a guarantee was utterly meaningless, and everything depends on the progress of the research.

Find it amusing, Chu Chengrui didn't find it strange either, since Chu Ge had already thoroughly understood the current situation. Besides hoping for his "kindness," what other choice does he have?

Chu Ge exhaled deeply and gave a very forced smile, "Thank you."

This kind of smile, Chu Chengrui wasn't seeing for the first time. It was a weak person's fear of a strong one, a self-soothing thought generated in a situation with no way out.

And this also signified that Chu Ge, the rebellious wolf, had been completely tamed!

"You're welcome. Is there anything else you want to say?"

Chu Chengrui asked leisurely again, and Chu Ge hesitated for a long time before finally shaking his head in defeat, "No more."

Chu Chengrui then smiled "kindly and amiably," and remarked, "Don't you want to make a call to your wife, to tell her you're safe, and make up a lie?"

Chu Ge's expression froze, after a few seconds he shook his head again, "No need."

These three words seemed to completely drain the last remaining strength from Chu Ge's body. When he finished speaking, he fell back stiffly onto the bed, staring blankly at the tea-colored glass above, embodying what it meant to be utterly dejected.

Chu Chengrui chuckled, his satisfied gaze swept over Chu Ge, whose expression he could no longer see, before the image disappeared from the big screen.

In the cage, there was a deathly silence.

In Chu Shiyao's Spiritual World, however, Chu Ge's usual careless and mocking laughter sounded.

If there were any differences between this laughter and the smile hanging on his face during normal days, it would be... carefully observing and listening, one would find the contained killing intent almost tangible, as if even the air were freezing.

"Yaoyao, good cooperation, that old mad dog really thinks we're at an absolute dead end and completely under his control."

"Ah... I barely cooperated, I was so scared of blowing our cover that I barely said a word. Do you think my reaction was too minimal?"

"No, no, that's actually great. If your reaction were any stronger, it would have been too exaggerated."

"In terms of acting skills, you definitely didn't disappoint. Your facial expression and tone changes just now were absolutely spot on. Even I felt like it was real. If you were acting in films, even a documentary could win you a Golden Horse Award."

"Haha... No choice, actors act for money, I just acted to make that old mad dog let down his guard, which directly concerns our safety, so I had to get it right."

"True enough, but still, your acting is impressive."

"Hehe..."

Night descended once more, and the fragrance from yesterday filled the cage again.

Although some things had happened with Chu Shiyao yesterday, she seemed not to resist it now, Chu Ge still tried his hardest to control himself, even though he felt like he was about to explode, he continued to grit his teeth and resist that damned fragrance.

It's not that Chu Ge was particularly virtuous, nor did he have any objections to Chu Shiyao, it was just that feeling of being led by the nose by Chu Chengrui that bothered him the most.

Moreover, he clearly remembered the terribly demented words Chu Chengrui had said before.

"If Chu Shiyao becomes pregnant, Chu Chengrui will use their child for experimentation!"

Though whether Chu Shiyao could conceive was a matter of probability, if she did, the nine months of pregnancy would be a long process. Certainly, Chu Ge wouldn't waste this time doing nothing, but, when all is said and done, who can guarantee his plan won't encounter any problems? Can he really escape with Chu Shiyao?

If his plan fails, and he and Chu Shiyao never get the chance to leave this cursed place, and they do have a child who falls into Chu Chengrui's hands, then...
