Chapter 145 – To Hell with Love!
Himalayas, Everest:
A silhouette fell from the top of the mountain and bounced from rock to rock.
Inside the Life Sphere, the young couple looked at each other affectionately. It seemed that even the life and death tribulations they endured as they rolled down the mountain were incapable of shaking their strong love.
“I love you,” the young woman said softly.
“I love you too,” the young man replied.
“We must remain together forever.”
“Right. We’ll never separate.”
“Until the ocean dries up.”
“Until the ocean dries up!”
Moved to tears, the young woman choked and sang, “When the mountains no longer have ridges.”[1]
The young man followed up, “When the river water no longer flows.”
“When time stops, and there’s no difference between night and day.”
“When all the things of heaven and earth turn to nothing.”
“I still will be unable to let go of your hand!”
“Unable to let go of your hand...”
The two then clasped each other’s hands and shared an affectionate embrace.
Boom!
The Life Sphere suddenly collided with another rock in the next second, causing the sphere to recoil. The young woman immediately cried out in pain and subconsciously swung her fist down onto her boyfriend’s head. “You bit me!”
“You hit me?”
“You but me!” The young woman punched her boyfriend again out of anger. “Can’t you say sorry?”
“You hit me again? You’re doing this on purpose!”
“Does it even hurt?”
“Even if it doesn’t hurt, you still shouldn’t hit me! You’re behaving like a shrew!”
“You’re cursing me?”
“You hit me first.”
“Bah! You scum!”
“Bah! Bah! Stinky hag...”
“Let’s break up!”
“Crap, you think I’m scared of you?! Whoever doesn’t break up is the other person’s grandson!”
“***!”
“****!”
[This reversal is...puzzling.]
[Justice has come so soon that I wasn’t even ready for it.]
[I’m so happy!]
[I’m glad to see this.]
[This is so damned funny! Nice job!]
[FFFF...]
[Hahaha!]
[My food tastes good again.]
[We’re all professionals here. We shouldn’t laugh.]
[So long as you have the heart to grow old with me, you can be without a car or a house. If you love me, you need to accompany me! On the road of love, both you and I are present!][2]
[Love? What love? To hell with love!][2]

...
By the time Chen Yu had flown the couple back to Phoenix Mountain’s peak, the young woman had her hair disheveled, and the young man had scratches all over his face.
“Was it fun?” Chen Yu asked.
“It was fun.” The young woman nodded.
“Go have fun on your own, you barbaric woman! You don’t make sense at all! We’re breaking up once we go back!”
“If you have the guts, break up now.”
“So be it!”
Scratching his helmet, Chen Yu said, “Alright, considering your current states, I won’t ask you for your experience in front of the audience. Go home.”
“Thank you, UP.” While wiping away her tears, the young woman earnestly said, “Thank you for allowing me to see the essence of this scumbag.”
“I have to thank you as well.” Bowing to Chen Yu, the young man said, “Thank you for letting us break up.”
“Y-You’re welcome.”
While angrily glaring at each other, the couple walked through the Interstellar Portal.
“Don’t touch me!”
“Do you think I want to? The door is only so big...”
After the couple disappeared into the portal, ChenYu sighed and muttered, “City people really are amazing.
“Next, the last member of the bullet comment group. Old man, it’s your turn. How do you want to play?”
Stepping forward, the old man waved his walking stick and declared, “I want to go to Mount Everest as well.”
Chen Yu: “...”
“Moreover, I want to fall starting from the stratosphere, land on Mount Everest, and then roll down the mountain.”
“...Old man, do you want to die?”
“My body is in good shape!” the old man said as he tossed away his cane and patted his chest. “Just send me there and be done with me.”
After a moment of silence, Chen Yu hesitantly asked, “Are you trying to swindle me?”[3]
“I don’t do that kind of nonsense.” Pointing into the sky, the old man repeated, “Hurry and send me there.”
“Stop making trouble, old man. How about this? I’ll send you into the deep sea, and the water will push the Life Sphere upward. The process should be relatively stable. You’ll also be the first to enjoy this innovative experience. Want to give it a try?”
“It’s not exciting. I’m not trying. I want to go up into the sky.”
“No.” Feeling slightly irritated, Chen Yu said, “I’ve already stated in the game rules that all participants must listen to my instructions. You are too old. It’s highly likely you’ll come into danger if you roll down Mount Everest.”
“I...”
“If you don’t agree, then don’t play.”
After pondering for a moment, the old man rubbed his chest, and his tone softened as he begged, “Young man, can’t we discuss this? I’ll pass on Mount Everest. Just drop me from the atmosphere and let me fall down. I don’t mind even if I fall on flat ground.”
[This old man is really annoying.]
[+1. People should know their limits.]
[Kick that old man and switch me in!]
[Is he a professional fraudster? He actually dares defraud the UP as well?]
[Maybe he wants to defraud UP of a spaceship, lololol.]
[Show some respect. The guy’s an old man.]
Raising his head and looking at the blue sky, Chen Yu sighed and asked, “Old man, can’t you play something tamer?”
“I won’t ask to roll down a mountain anymore. I just want to fall from the atmosphere.” Picking up his walking stick, the old man staggered to Chen Yu and revealed a childish smile. “Please, young man. Satisfy this old man’s wish.”
“...Fine.” Spreading his hands, Chen Yu surrendered and said, “However, I’ll say this in advance: I won’t be responsible for anything that happens. You’re so old already, so your logical thinking should be quite clear. You need to bear the consequences for your own decisions.”
“No problem! You’re a good person, young man!”
The old man grew so excited that even his beard trembled. Throwing away his walking stick once more, he quickly staggered into the Life Sphere, afraid that Chen Yu would go back on his words.
“Okay, then.” Chen Yu stopped trying to dissuade the old man. He then picked up the Life Sphere together with the old man and approached the Interstellar Portal. After establishing a spatial link to the stratosphere that was 50 kilometers above the ground, he asked one last time, “Old man, are you sure you want to do this?”
Lying inside the ball, the old man curiously squeezed and touched the sphere’s interior. In response to Chen Yu’s question, he dismissively waved his hand and said, “No need to worry. This old man knows what he’s doing. You should set some standards even when respecting the old. For an annoying old man like myself, you youngsters really don’t need to show me any care.”
Chen Yu: “...”
“Okay. Old man, just for that sentence, I’ll do my best to protect you.”
After saying so, Chen Yu pushed hard on the Life Sphere, sending both the sphere and the old man through the spatial link and to an altitude of 50,000 meters.
[Requesting for internal perspective!]
[The old man should be crying from fear.]
[This old man really is annoying. Going into the deep sea is much better. We can enjoy the view as well.]
Meanwhile, when the old man saw that the scenery outside had changed from the top of a mountain to the high and empty sky, the childish smile that originally plastered his face gradually subsided.
As he experienced the feeling of weightlessness that resulted from falling rapidly, the old man pulled out an old photo from his pocket and carefully observed it.
In the photo, there was a girl with big eyes and braids. The girl wore a sweet smile on her face, revealing two rows of white teeth to the camera.
“Wife...” Smiling peacefully, the old man stroked the gray photo with his wrinkled thumb. He then pointed the picture downward, “Wife, can you see it?
“This is space! Even airplanes can’t fly so high.
“Hehe. They wouldn’t let me get on an airplane, but didn’t I still make it up here? I even reached higher than they can!”
Rubbing his itching eyes, the old man continued talking to himself.
“It’s been decades, but we finally won.
“Life has also changed for the better. The youngsters are becoming more and more promising with each passing generation.”
His eyes growing moist, the old man’s fingers started trembling uncontrollably, “Can you see it?
“What beautiful mountains and rivers.
“They’re ours.
“They’re all ours, and they will always belong to us.
“Look, at this flourishing age...”
[Haha, the old man got scared!]
[He even forgot how to cry for help.]
[I want to play as well!]
[This ought to teach him a lesson. Even old people must learn the immensity of heaven and earth.]
“Hah...”
The old man cried while trembling. Wiping away his muddy tears with the cuffs of his sleeves, he pressed the photo firmly to his chest.
“You didn’t die in vain.
“I didn’t fight for nothing.
“Everything was worth it.
“Our time has passed.
“I wish for my heartbeat to stop at this moment...”
While whispering to himself, the old man peacefully closed his eyes.
When the old man’s tears fell onto the lubricating fluid inside the Life Sphere, the two liquids did not merge together. Instead, the teardrops sank, and sank, and sank to the very bottom...
