Chapter 18: Provoking the killer (2/2)
He walked towards me with a poker face, and everyone subconsciously opened up a path for him. Before I could react, Suyang lifted me up and threw me on his back.
“You! Let me off!” My hands and feet were fluttering like mad. But it was no use. Suyang carried me straight into the hospital to avoid the reporters.
I watched the reporters upside down as I helplessly saw our distance grew wider. Deep down, I sincerely hoped they were going to publish what I said!
I gave Suyang a flabbergasted look. What’s wrong with him? It was as if he had changed into another person again.
People were giving me strange looks and I covered my face, “Where are you carrying me to?”
Suyang didn’t put me down until we had arrived at the hospital’s fire control passage. He clutched my collar and shoved me against the wall. The harsh impact injured my arm and I had to hold back from yelping out in pain. Suyang had one arm against the wall.
“Are you crazy? If the reporters published or aired what you had just said, it would provoke the homicidal maniac! What if he comes looking for you…?” He furiously shrieked.
I rolled my pupils around and avoided Suyang’s glance, “Are you afraid? Are you scared the homicidal maniac might get you if he sees us together?”
Suyang used one hand to pinch my face. He used so much strength that I could barely speak clearly as I cried out in pain, “Ai ai ai, lighter! Lighter! What are you doing?”
A drop of my saliva accidentally came out of my mouth and landed on Suyang’s hand. He released me and frowned as he wiped the back of his hand on my shoulder. “A goldfish is truly a goldfish. Your IQ must be negative. He is on the dark side and you’re the opposite. You’re just going to get hurt.”
“Don’t worry. Even if I hurt myself, I won’t let it affect you. The moment we get home, I’ll move out until this is over. Alright?” I glared at Suyang’s arm. “Are you done talking? If so, move your arm so I can leave.”
“You’re such a stupid woman. Do you honestly think you’re Virgin Mary? You walked around the gates of hell and you still don’t understand your situation? You barely made it out alive. You should learn your lesson and stop causing trouble! Remain still! Why don’t you have any memory? Do you normally lack sleep? Is that why you want to sleep forever?”
My heart was actually hurt by Suyang’s words.
I lost my temper as I yelled, “Annoying goblin! Your words are so spiteful. I’m cursing you! I curse that you’ll never find a girlfriend in this lifetime! Remain single for life!”
Initially, I was hollering at Suyang, but then my voice choked with emotions, “Do you think I wish to provoke the homicidal maniac? Who wouldn’t want to be further away from him? Who wouldn’t want to live? My luck had just started to change. I’m not wandering around him because I’m sick of living. I’m not crazy. You seriously think I am tired of living?”
My eyes were red as I glared at Suyang. Surprisingly, my reaction caused Suyang to react much warmer. He took his hand off the wall and lightly patted my back. “Don’t misunderstand. It’s not because I’m afraid you will involve me. I’m only saying this stuff because I’m truly concerned about you.”
“Well, you don’t have to be so mean about it! My spirit is hurt…” I inhaled a deep breath from my nose and leaned my head against Suyang’s chest.
“Can you tell me what your plan is?”
I still had my head buried on his chest. “Why should I tell you?”
Suyang lowered his head and lightly stroked my hair. His voice was as gentle as the spring breeze. “I can only help you if you tell me. You’re a woman. You should allow a man to protect you…”
Suyang’s voice made me feel all warm and bubbly. I lifted my head and looked at him….appearing a bit confused. No! Stay clear headed! Clear headed! I’m not the type of woman that would allow honeyed words to deceive me.
Suyang sincerely stated, “If we are together and you get beat up, I can secretly go and help you call the cops…”
Suyang, you, grandpa!
Hearing Suyang’s words, the warmth I felt momentarily ago immediately disappeared without a trace. I hastily pushed him away and turned around and fan my cheeks to get rid of the blush.
I almost fell for his trap again.
As expected, he cannot be sweet for more than three seconds.
“Annoying goblin, can you say something good?”
Suyang coldly snorted, “My degree of concern is already quite good. Some men won’t even help you call the police.”
I obediently returned home with Suyang. Along the way, I didn’t say a word as I followed behind him.
Around the neighbourhood was a defective streetlamp. It wouldn’t stop flickering and gave off the “It was a moonless night. The killer came and killed.” type of atmosphere. That moment hasn’t come yet, but I was already shivering from fear.
