Chapter 212 - Something Knocking On The Window
”Ugh……” Mengyao's words were actually making Yushu feel bad. ”Yao Yao, don't say that… I was the one who made the bet, too! Of course I'll honor the agreement. I mean… I actually told s.h.i.+eld Bro about it when you were on the phone, I asked him to put on a show with me……”
”Wha-?!” Mengyao froze at the revealation- she hadn't expected the girl to manage that during those seconds! So what happened earlier was a complete performance, then? It was all fake?! Mengyao shot an angry glare at her. ”Shu!!”
”Uh… I told you the truth, didn't I… Don't get mad, Yao Yao……” Yushu said, startled as she ran for the room.
This Yushu… Mengyao didn't know what to do with this girl anymore, but things had ended pretty well, hadn't they? She did go a little overboard…
Zhong Pinliang was in his villa, watching a horror movie on his laptop as he sat in his room. He wasn't a very brave person- he still wet his bed at eight, didn't dare sleep alone at ten, and didn't dare go out alone at twelve…
It was an image completely different from the one he had at school- to solve that he thought up a plan, and that was to hide himself in his room in the middle of the night, watching horror movies by himself…
He always got scared s.h.i.+tless at the start, but he'd managed to force himself to become brave, even if by just a little. He could go out of the house at night now, on his own.
Yet the horror movies still scared him- he couldn't turn the lights off, and always watched them with the house completely lit… He was watching this film about a kid living alone, who always heard something knocking on the window at night.
It was simply horrifying! Pinliang wondered if something like that would happen to him tonight, his parents weren't home with him after all…
He was focusing on the movie when a black figure appeared outside his window…
And started knocking on it.
”AHH……….” Pinliang cried out, a little pee coming out as he fell on his b.u.t.t. ”Who?! Who is it?!!”
The knocking continued…
Pinliang was trembling, but he forced himself to look in the window's direction- his luck wasn't this s.h.i.+tty, was it? Something really came knocking on his window??
”Eh?” Pinliang sighed in relief after seeing who it was. He then wondered what the h.e.l.l he was doing here. Ignoring his pee-stained pants, he quickly ran to the window and opened it. ”Heibao Bro, why're you here?”
It was Heibao, who had escaped from the police earlier today, sneaking to Pinliang's place during nighttime, and was thinking of getting some money for his escape plans. He also wanted to discuss revenge against Lin Yi.
”Master Zhong, I beat a couple of cops up on the way to the prison- I escaped!” Heibao said, vaulting himself into the room with an agile movement.
