Villain Saving System (BL)

Inside the monitor room, there was only Dr. Xiao. She did not look surprised, perhaps having expected that Luan would barge in sooner or later. Or maybe Dr. Feng had informed her beforehand that Luan would definitely come to disrupt it.

She stood up and said with an apologetic tone, "I’m sorry... but it is not possible."

Luan trembled from pure rage and fear that overwhelmed him right now. He swore... he would bring this whole institute down with him if something were to happen to the man he loved. And Dr. Xiao’s gentle apology did nothing but to rapidly push him toward that path.

"Not possible...?" his voice was barely a whisper as he desperately tried to restrain the tide of violent emotions inside his chest. The rims of his eyes turned red like blood was going to drip out of it. "How... How can you say it’s not possible before you try it? How can you let him..." he choked on his words. And when he spoke again, his voice was bitingly cold, filled with nothing but hostility. "What do you think will happen if I cut off this institute’s electricity right now, Dr. Xiao?"

Luan was not a person who liked to make threats – hell, this might be the first time he had ever done so. But he could not bear it anymore. He wanted Dr. Feng back with him, right here and now. He even thought that it was okay if the man did not return his feelings, it was okay if he had to return to the shadows where he could only watch the man from afar, it was also okay if Dr. Feng treated him just like any other inanimate machine that was incapable of love. As long as the man was alive and healthy... everything would be okay. Luan was perfectly willing to surrender and forego this love.

This was not what he had wished for when he handed his core over. He never wanted Dr. Feng to risk his life. He never wanted...

"Luan..." Dr. Xiao uttered his name gently, not taking Luan’s threats to heart at all. Instead, she came close to offer Luan a tissue and only then did Luan realize that his eyes had gone blurry. "Luan, please calm down first. Do you think I haven’t yelled at that dumbass yet?" she sounded choked and it took Luan a few long seconds to process that she was in tears as well. Not only that, her eyelids were slightly swollen as if she had cried a lot these past few days. "But he... he is unmoved. He said that... this is the shortest and most effective way to... to understand you..."

Luan already had an inkling on what Dr. Feng planned to do when he first heard of the program, but when he heard the confirmation through Dr. Xiao’s lips, he still staggered backward as if someone had shoved him hard, his face turning ashen. No... you don’t need to do this to understand me...

Before he could even recover from the shock, Dr. Xiao’s next words completely crushed him down to the core,

"Moreover, this program really can’t be stopped once it has started. Otherwise, he would..." Dr. Xiao trailed off, unable to bring herself to continue anymore. Then she cursed under her breath, "That dumbass! How could he be such a fool?!"

Even though she did not finish her sentence, Luan could fill in the blanks just fine. Otherwise, his brain nerves would be damaged from the disturbance. Otherwise, he would even die...
