Chapter 624: 12.26 Unknown Star - Modern ABO World: Vows

The waiter from the cafe arrived to bring the trays of orders made by Hei Yuhua and the group. At first, he was surprised to see only one person remaining at the table.

The waiter asked, "Er, customer... Where are your companions?"

"One left to buy something, the other went to look for a restroom as yours looks crowded while the last one answered a phone call. Don't worry they will be back soon. Thank you. Here is the bill, you can keep the rest as your tip. If you have ice cream give me some too." said Hei Yuhua who gave the money twice the total bill o, their orders. Because of such a huge tip the waiter happily serves him.

"There are some mango, mint chocolate, and dark chocolate Ice cream flavors available in pint-size. Which will the customer get?" asked the cafe staff.

Hei Yuhua answered, "Then one mint and one dark chocolate. We'll take it before we leave for take-out. Thank you."

"Understood, the esteemed customer." said the waiter as he returned to the store.

After the cafe staff had left, Hei Yuhua grabbed his drink and started sipping. The coldness of crushed ice, milk, strawberry, raspberry, and cheesecake melted in his mouth. Hei Yuhua comfortably smiles with the taste a.s.saulting his tongue. It was so delicious plus the sugar intent was just right. The coldness of blended ice lightens the heat in his body and it feels cozy.

Hei Yuhua mumbles, "Delicious~"

Suddenly he was hugged by someone who jumped on him. He was about to retaliate before he was touched but stopped when he scented the fragrance of wood. It was familiar and made him feel safe. As expected, it was Ye Yuyan who hugged him as soon as he returned. This was just them acting from those prying eyes in the dark.

Ye Yuyan felt taps on his arm and looked at Hei Yuhua staring at him tenderly but his adorable appearance while sipping on his frappe made him laugh for a moment. Ye Yuyan couldn't help but kiss him on his forehead.

"Thank G.o.d you are alright, Yu'er," said Ye Yuyan.

Hei Yuhua blushed upon suddenly receiving a kiss and they are in public. Hia's hands flailed frantically and grabbed one ice Americano on the table and gave it to Ye Yuyan even using the drink to block someone's line of sight.

"T-Th-That's enough. Just drink this and sit down properly," said Hei Yuhua.

Ye Yuyan said, "My darling you are so cute~"

"Shus.h.!.+ What are you saying in public!?" whispered Hei Yuhua as he noticed eyes on the two of them but this man continued to tease him while laughing. His only choice is to ignore him as if they weren't involved.

Seeing his embarra.s.sed face which is as red as a tomato, Ye Yuyan couldn't help but laugh and tease him more. He cannot kiss him the second time as Hei Yuhua forces him to drink his beverage.

Ye Yuyan looks at the plate of cake in front of his future mate and scoops some to feed him.

"Yu'er, open your mouth. Ah~" said Ye Yuyan trying to feed the latter with cake.

'This bully...'

Though Hei Yuhua is very reluctant to act lovey-dovey in public, he didn't want to waste the cake in front of him. He slightly opened his mouth, trembling.

Pfft!

Ye Yuyan spoon-fed him with cake and commented, "Yu'er, you so adorable~"

Chomp!

Hei Yuhua said while glaring at Ye Yuyan. "If you don't stop bullying me I'm going to ignore you."

"Don't ignore me, please. I'm wrong." said Ye Yuyan.

In his mind, another set of calculations had been done for his Nether Points. It was the robotic tone of System Yang's voice.

[Another 30 NP for receiving a kiss. You've held hands for 3 hours. That's 180 minutes in total x 10 points per minute = 1,800 NP. Host Yuhua had the current total points of 1940 NP. Do you wish to check on the items in the System Mall?]

Hei Yuhua was still ignoring his annoying man when he heard System Yang's voice in his head and responded in his mind.

'I would check it later. A'Yan is still with me.'

Hei Yuhua on the other hand noticed that Lou Wei and Yun Jie haven't returned yet.

"A'Yan, Where's Officer Lou and A'Jie?" asked Hei Yuhua.

Ye Yuyan answered honestly as he was the one who sent them a way to do a task. As soon as he moved away to act like he was going to answer the call, he sent a message to Lou Wei and Yun Jie to spot anyone wearing either a long black trench coat or purple heels within the market and tried to capture that person.

Hei Yuhua looked at the melting drinks of Lou Wei and Yun Jie. They could eat the cake and quiche but... drinking different types of beverages is not good. Moreover, he doesn't drink that black coffee Americano as it's bitter and he doesn't drink green tea either.

"What should we do about their drinks?" asked Hei Yuhua.

Ye Yuyan replied, "Don't worry, we can buy some again. As for those two..." He looked around the crowd and saw the hidden bodyguard his father left to protect him. "You two. Yes, both of you. These drinks are yours."

Once the two bodyguards took the extra Iced Americano and Green Tea Cream Cheese Frappuccino, Ye Yuyan told them to leave and resume their tasks. The two bodyguards disappeared into the crowd like how they appeared from it. Hei Yuhua noticed that those two bodyguards are too well trained. They are just a bit weaker than Lou Wei and their bodies are fully trained for fighting.

Hei Yuhua commented, "Are they from the SWAT Team under the minister? Your bodyguards are amazing. No wonder the Syndicate considered your condominium building as a Void Zone."

"Well, most of our neighbors are either my subordinate or father's people. He is overprotective," said Ye Yuyan.

Hei Yuhua said, "No. This is good. It was because of this that the Floral didn't dare to touch you."

"Floral? Is that what the executives in Red Poppy Syndicate are called?" asked Ye Yuyan.

Hei Yuhua smiled and said, "I will explain everything to you at home. But... Are you sure you could trust me unconditionally? I'm a double agent. I might lean to their side more than to Aster."

Obviously, he is smiling but this smile is unlike the small, lovely, and shy smile of Hei Yuhua. Even though it looks natural the depths of his eyes are cold and emotionless.

Ye Yuyan had seen this smile multiple times in his dreams. A detached smile that was made naturally yet at the same time is fake. A fake smile that reaches perfection. Only a top agent in the undercover division was trained for this. Showing fake emotions as real ones.

On the same day before he shot Hei Yuhua in the heart. He would always look at him with disgusted eyes. To him at that time, Hei Yuhua was nothing but a psychopath serial killer who victimized weak females and he had always thought that his 1-year-old daughter, Ye Huahua, was killed by this man. Who would think that the information he got that night was all fake and their daughter was taken to safety by the Aster with his father's permission as he and Hei Yuhua were on the mission of capturing someone from the Red Poppy Organization?

Misunderstandings pile up like a mountain and he who treats and sees Hei Yuhua as a menace leads to him shooting at Hei Yuhua in the chest. This was because he didn't trust him enough. Even after hearing hints from Yun Jie who plays the role of the contract killer, informing him about his and Hei Yuhua's real ident.i.ties. He chooses not to believe him.

That's why Yun Jie hated him so much after that night. He is the person who took away the only family Yun Jie has and he did it using his own hands.

So when Ye Yuyan heard Hei Yuhua's questions of trust and loyalty, he only smiled. He took away the drink the latter was holding and took both of his hands to his own. Hei Yuhua's hands were soft yet hard calluses on them. This is because he is an agent who is well known for his skills with dagger and poison as weapons.

He looked directly at Hei Yuhua's eyes and vowed, "I will give the oath to the heavens. I will give my full trust, loyalty, and love to Hei Yuhua in my whole life regardless of any situation even if he becomes the villain of this world. I, Ye Yuyan, shall be by your side until the end. For better or for worse, in life and death, I vowed to the heavens. If I ever broke this promise left the heavens to destroy my whole being including my soul until nothing is left."

Hei Yuhua was stunned by what he heard even the people around them were rendered speechless by the words this stupid officer, Ye Yuyan had just made.

System Yang commented in Hei Yuhua's head, [A vow to the heavens can never be revoked, especially ones made in the presence of two G.o.ds. Yuhua, this man is serious.]

Meanwhile, in Ye Yuyan's mind, System Yue was scolding his current temporary host.

[Are you crazy!? You made a vow to the heavens while with a G.o.d in your body. That is an oath recorded in the divinity of the highest realm. If you broke it your soul and body would perish for eternity. This is not a joke, Ye Yuyan.] said System Yue.

Ye Yuyan's response to System Yue, 'I am not joking. In this lifetime, I will be on Yu' er's side even if he becomes evil in the end. This is a vow I made with my whole life at stake. I will never regret it. This time I promise to trust him, be loyal to him, and love him for all eternity.'

While the two are staring at each other in both shock and amazement, suddenly they hear a playful and angelic voice ringing in their heads. Hei Yuhua had heard it before and the two Systems were delighted to hear this voice.

It was Hei Anjing's voice. He is once again awake after all this time.

{Hahaha~ you two are both interesting. Yuhua, agree to it. A vow of eternity in my presence can never be revoked. He would be yours not only in this life but in your future reincarnations as well. I just woke up and heard something fun~ you made me laugh I shall give you a very useful gift something you both would be delighted to have. I will give you a skill called Telepathy. This will allow you guys to speak through your minds but only to each other. After all, in your world supernatural abilities don't exist~ but who could stop me. Hehehe....}

Suddenly both Hei Yuhua and Ye Yuyan felt something enter their minds and a certain connection between the two of them is made. Now they could see each other's minds directly so when Ye Yuyan saw a little glowing sun in Hei Yuhua's head he knew he was like him.

Ye Yuyan said in shock, "A small sun. Is that a system? Yu'er, you... have you regressed like me!?"

The crowd's reactions,

"Huh!? Is this a live proposal? What is he talking about system and such? A sci-fi jargon?"

"That's out of the blue. What nonsense is he talking about?"

"Well, the vow to heaven is nonsense itself, where are the cameras?"

His sudden words confuse the crowd and System Yang had no other choice but to temporarily stop the time in the world using another time scroll.

System Yue brought out another time scroll and activated it. [Time. Stop.]

Suddenly everything in the world stopped except for those involved with Hei Anjing and Vearth. Seeing this, Warden Lou and Yun Ming teleported to where they are, which shocked Ye Yuyan.

Bewildered Ye Yuyan as he looked at Lou Wei and Yun Jie appeared in thin air.

"T-Teleportation!?" exclaimed Ye Yuyan.

Suddenly Lou Wei and Yun Jie kneeled before Hei Yuhua no... more like the being residing inside him.

"Warden Lou (Yun Ming) greets Lord Hei!"

And then before the eyes of Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua, Hei Anjing in his G.o.d form materialized in thin air. A dead gorgeous man with flowing light brown hair wearing a white robe with patterned black snowflakes at the edges appeared before them.

Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua were amazed. This is the first time they had seen such a perfect being. His features were overly refined and flawless. Even his phoenix-shaped eyes were much more rarefied than Hei Yuhua, tall nose and thin lips upturned into a mischievous smile. A pair of silver irises as if it was made of two moons itself and an otherworldly presence that only G.o.ds possess.

Only the same thought crossed the mind of Ye Yuyan and Hei Yuhua.

"Is this a real G.o.d?"
