Chapter 91: Night Chatter

Translator:Editor:

Why aren’t there any mattresses in these tents? Then again, the weather has been quite hot recently – some nights the temperature can get to as high as twenty degrees. We probably would not feel cold without blankets anyway. Hmm and the flooring of the tent…it’s spongy…and it feels quite soft! How lucky.

“Hey, they’re both the same. Which tent would you prefer?” he turned and asked Wang Shishi.

“Umm…I’m scared to sleep alone tonight…Do you mind if I slept in the same tent together with the two of you?” Wang Shishi was still traumatized from what had happened recently.

Luo Yuan and Huang Jiahui looked at each other and came to an agreement. “Sure.”

It was a night filled with too much gore for a young lady that even Huang Jiahui would have had nightmares. What more could they expect from an inexperienced girl like Wang Shishi? If they left her to sleep alone, the accumulated stress would most likely have broken her.

The trio walked together into the tent and Luo Yuan zipped the entrance closed.

Huang Jiahui made sure to check that her pistol was close to her before she lied down to sleep. She assumed that Wang Shishi would be sleeping next to her and decided to leave some space but she was wrong – Wang Shishi was in fact sleeping on the other side, cuddling very closely to Luo Yuan. She felt a little frustrated but decided to let it go as she could see Wang Shishi was trembling helplessly. As long as we’re all safe and alive, she thought.

“Brother Luo, would those baddies attempt to kill us in our sleep?” Wang Shishi whispered into Luo Yuan’s ear as she was struggling to fall asleep.

“Well, if they had any common sense, they would certainly avoid coming to us. Besides, they also need to sleep. You can sleep safe and sound tonight.” He replied.

“You…deliberately killed that man, didn’t you?” Huang Jiahui questioned Luo Yuan hesitantly. Wang Shishi’s eyes began to widen after hearing that question.

He kept silent for a moment before replying, “When you were a cop, were you ever afraid when confronting a criminal?”

“Of course not!” Huang Jiahui replied instantly.

“The reason was because you always had a gun with you; it helps amplify your courage and strength which indirectly makes you feel more authoritative and overpowering.

Those men had more than one gun and from the looks of it none of them were good men. Even if I didn’t want to, I had to kill that man as a warning just in case any of them dared to challenge us.”

“That’s a person’s life! You should have just punished him instead of kill him.”

“Did you even think about what would have happened, if they deemed us weaker than them?”

“Well…perhaps you could have just cut off one of his limbs instead…” she abruptly stopped mid-sentence, surprised by what she had just said.

“Haha! That would have been worse than death. In our current situation, it would have been better if he died than lived and endure being tortured.” He replied.

Wang Shishi could not stand it any longer, “Sister Huang, please STOP going against Brother Luo! He was just trying to keep us safe! If it weren’t for him, we would both be DEAD by now!”

Huang Jiahui was taken aback by the accusation, “Oh? Why don’t you help our dear Brother Luo then? Weren’t you upset with him just now, and said you hated him?”

“Well…I WAS angry and depressed when I said that! But I am well aware that he means well.”
