"Xuan, mom thinks you should start searching for a good wife," Madam Hu said on the dining table with Hu Xuan.
"Dad also feels the same," Lord Hu, the former prime minister, agreed while eating his dinner. They were concerned with Hu Xuan, who didn't want to search for any woman, even though he had just been appointed as the youngest prime minister in this country, replacing his retired father.
"I don't need one," Hu Xuan said coldly. He continued eating his food while ignoring his parents. Lord and Madam Hu stared at each other and sighed helplessly.
Hu Xuan was cold. They knew that. Hu Xuan had always been cold and unfeeling to anyone. But it was not like he needed those people. He was always the genius of the bunch, the inextinguishable star. He made everything, every subject, every problem seemed too easy. He made everything his playground, Including that game that trapped him inside the virtual world for a good while.
Lord Hu and Madam Hu thought Hu Xuan would return normal after he cleared the game and saved everyone. Who would've thought that Hu Xuan became even colder than before?
He was like a perfect robot that would execute everything in precise order, with zero mistakes. But he also became a very detached and scary guy. Because it looked like he didn't have a heart at all.
Cold and unfeeling.
Hu Xuan was used to be called like that. He heard many people called him the unfeeling prime minister, the cold monster, and weird robot. At his age of 35, he hadn't had any history of dating anyone in the real world.
He was handsome, very handsome actually. A talented genius, great inventor, and charismatic leader.
But they called him a heartless monster just because he kicked away his competitors for that Prime Minister position.
Hu Xuan didn't feel guilty, though, because all his guilt had been consumed and reserved for his true love, the only person he ever fell in love with, Cutiepie69.
Hu Xuan sat on his desk while staring at the AI that he made based on his memory of Cutiepie. He laughed at himself for being so desperate that he would create such stupid AI solely to fill his loneliness, "Yunyu, how are you today?"
Bai Yunyu or Cutiepie69's hologram yawned and said, "Master, I have been studying nonstop today. I am so tired and sleepy!"
Hu Xuan smiled and nodded, "I will recharge you to full, don't worry."
Hu Xuan smiled as Yunyu hologram summoned a bed and changed his clothes. He slept in his pyjama beside Hu Xuan, and Hu Xuan kept on staring at Yunyu.
Everything was fake. Of course, Hu Xuan knew that. But he wanted to live with this fake Yunyu for a moment. Because he couldn't imagine a life without his beloved Bai Yunyu. He would rather die.
Hu Xuan caressed the hologram, which didn't react because Hu Xuan basically caressed a robot, like an idiot.
Hu Xuan felt empty because he had to do this every day. He wanted to meet the real Bai Yunyu, but everything he did lead to a dead end. As if Bai Yunyu or Cutiepie69 was not supposed to exist in this world.
"But I don't want to give up," Hu Xuan said determinedly. "I'd rather die than give up searching for you. Even if I have to spend my entire life searching for you, then so be it. Bai Yunyu, my life is yours. I am already dead inside that game alongside you. If you are somehow alive in this world, then I too shall be a normal human once more."
"Because this life… is yours," Hu Xuan said determinedly.
***
"How is the progress? Is there a lead to Bai Yunyu or Cutiepie69?" Hu Xuan asked when he entered a base solely created by Hu Xuan to search for Bai Yunyu. It had been years since it operated. In the meantime, half of the developers hired by Hu Xuan was tasked to make a perfect AI with a robot body to imitated Bai Yunyu/Cutiepie69.
He thought it would be another hopeless day until someone announced to Hu Xuan. "Prime Minister, there is someone with the same name, Bai Yunyu. But his appearance is a bit different than what you imagined."
"What do you mean?"
"This man is already 33 years old, a very regular man working as a teacher in a small city. He is currently unmarried."
Hu Xuan frowned, "What about his appearance?"
"He does look similar to what you described, Prime Minister. But he is a bit… ugly…"
Hu Xuan walked towards his employee and saw a data of a man. His name was Bai Yunyu, 33, unmarried, an elementary teacher in a small city. Yes, his appearance was not beautiful compared to Bai Yunyu/Cutiepie69 in the game. But he was obviously not fit to the criteria.
pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ But those beautiful eyes. Even after more than a decade, Hu Xuan still remembered those eyes that showed a pure life full of hope and innocence. Hu Xuan stared at the picture for a good while, which made everyone wonder whether something happened to their Prime Minister.
Hu Xuan checked the address and nodded. He turned his back and walked away while ordering his bodyguards, "Prepare the helicopter. I am going to that small city."
***
"Teacher Bai, how is my drawing?" a little girl showed her scribble to Bai Yunyu proudly. She expected the gracious and kind Teacher Bai to praise her for her hard work.
Bai Yunyu crouched and checked the drawing, "Is this Teacher Bai with you?"
"Yes! Teacher Bai is my favourite! I draw Teacher Bai with me!" the little girl said enthusiastically.
Bai Yunyu smiled and rubbed the girl's head, "That's a great drawing. Teacher Bai is pleased."
The girl jumped happily and handed the drawing to Teacher Bai, "Teacher Bai can have it! This is my gift!"
"Thank you so much," Bai Yunyu smiled and accepted the drawing. In exchange, he handed a small chocolate bar to the girl.
Yunyu stared at the drawing, he smiled at it, but at the same time, he felt complicated.
[Pupa, how long will we stay in this place? I want to leave. We've completed this world, right?]
[Pupa: Yes, but I still cannot proceed to the next world for an unknown reason. It seems that we will be stuck in this place for a while.]
After Yunyu cleared that virtual reality, Pupa couldn't transmigrate to the next world for some reason. Thus, as an emergency action, Pupa took the body of a man with the same name as Yunyu and put Yunyu's soul there until it could find a way to fix this.
Yunyu was forced to live a normal life again, but he didn't want to meet Hu Xuan, who was obviously far above him in status. Hu Xuan was the son of Prime Minister Hu. And after years passed, Hu Xuan became the youngest Prime Minister at the age of 35.
Yunyu felt that Hu Xuan already had his own life and probably would marry a beautiful lady soon. It was best for Yunyu to just stay anonymous and wait until this floating orange thing solved the issue.
[Hu Xuan is already happy and have become a good politician. I miss him, but it's alright. Though, working as an elementary school teacher is really tiring…]
[Pupa: You can just return to Hu Xuan.]
[Oh heck no! At this rate, I think he had forgotten me already!]
[Pupa: You know that 100% Fatemeter basically means that you and he will never be separated, right? Even if you do, you will still be the love of his life forever.]
[Ah, I doubt that. He is too handsome, an accomplished man, and also a powerful one. I'd rather stay here as a teacher for a while. It is a new experience for me anyway.]
Yunyu finished today's teaching in the evening and returned to a modest house owned by this world's Bai Yunyu. He walked to his home with his old leather bag. Bai Yunyu was a regular teacher with a small monthly wage, so he rarely spent on unnecessary stuff.
He opened his small fence and was stunned on the spot when he saw a very familiar, clean-shaven handsome man that shouldn't be here.
He sat on the chair, crossing his legs, and his eyes didn't leave Bai Yunyu at all. He had a small smirk on his face, and he scoffed, "So you've finally returned."
Bai Yunyu gulped because he didn't expect Hu Xuan to actually find his place. Bai Yunyu was about to break his acting before thinking fast about how to escape this situation.
Bai Yunyu walked awkwardly and bowed his head deeply for Hu Xuan.
"Prime Minister Hu, M—May I know why are you here?" Yunyu asked.
Hu Xuan stared at the nervous Bai Yunyu, who tried to dodge his gaze. He noticed those clear and pure eyes immediately. It was obviously Bai Yunyu, the same Bai Yunyu who had completely owned his heart.
"I am here to find my soulmate," Hu Xuan replied calmly.
"S—Soulmate?!" Bai Yunyu was surprised, "I don't know why the mighty Prime Minister Hu wants to find a soulmate here. T—There is no girl in my house—"
"My soulmate is not a girl," Hu Xuan said lightly. "He is a man that has filled my dream every day. The same man who said that he wants me to be happy, but instead, he tortures me by not showing himself for more than a decade."
"At last, I am here for him."
"P—Prime Minister, there must be some misunderstanding—"
"I've checked your data. You are a top player in that game. Although you keep yourself anonymous all the time. You also have the same name as my soulmate. And those eyes…"
Hu Xuan got up from the seat. He walked towards Bai Yunyu and pinched Yunyu's chin. He raised Yunyu's chin, and their eyes met, "I've searched you for a decade. Would you mind dropping any reason you have right now and embrace me? Bai Yuuny… or should I say, Cutiepie69…"
"I finally found you."
Bai Yunyu stared at Hu Xuan, who had dark as the abyss eyes, yet hold such a strong feeling.
Hu Xuan landed a kiss on Bai Yunyu's lips. He missed these lips for so long, and it took him a while until Yunyu started struggling because he couldn't breathe.
Hu Xuan chuckled at Yunyu, who still acted like a virgin. He slowly engulfed Yunyu by putting his hand on Yunyu's waist.
Prime Minister Hu Xuan pulled Yunyu towards him and their body shared warmth together. He smiled and kissed Yunyu's forehead.
"Bai Yunyu, I've dedicated my life to search for you. Now I will dedicate my life to love you. Yunyu, I am yours, as long as you don't run away from me anymore, I will do anything for you…"
"My Cutiepie69."
