Chapter 98 - Late Night (1/2)
He had said that sentence as if it was quite normal.
But……..Yin Ze rolled his eyes, “Are you kidding me? Don’t you know why we called you over?”
Fang Shu Juan said: “Of course I know.”
Yin Ze was about to sneer at him. He then heard him continue and say: “But if I said it, you would probably hit me, so I won’t say it.”
This sentence of his made Yin Ze suspicious.
As soon the thought that he was probably referring to something else arose in his mind, he frowned and snorted. No longer wishing to look at him any longer, he turned around and climbed up to his bed.
Fang Shu Juan watched him, “Turns out you sleep there.”
Yin Ze didn’t even look back, “Don’t think about coming up.”
Fang Shu Juan wasn’t angry. He sat down on the bunk below and said: “Does this social meetup mean that I can stay here now?”
Su Min said: “I also don’t know. All I know is that it allows you to stay over for a night. As for whether or not you could do it tomorrow, it’ll depend on the prison guards.”
“It should be fine then.” Fang Shu Juan rubbed his chin and said: “If one night is okay, several more shouldn’t be an issue.”
It was indeed very convenient having them all stay in the same room. If you needed to do something, the others could join and it was also more convenient to talk. Like this, they wouldn’t need to wait until meal time or work to talk and only be able to exchange a few sentences.
Su Min asked: “Have you washed up yet?”
Fang Shu Juan nodded, “It’s soon time for the lights to be turned off.”
As soon as he said that, the speaker sounded, and everything fell into darkness. This was followed by a mixture of angry yells and protests from the other prisoners.
In a place filled with men, accidents were bound to happen.
Even if they knew that the lights would turn off at this time every night, they still didn’t feel happy about it. What’s more, the men here weren’t good people so they naturally felt more comfortable cursing out a few times to vent.
Su Min said: “Let’s go to bed.”
“Yeah.” Fang Shu Juan slowly sighed, “There’s no blanket in the bottom bunk. What should I do if I end up catching a cold tonight?”
Because each person only had one blanket and because there were only the two of them in room 8, the remaining two unused beds were just empty wooden beds. The guards naturally assumed that, with a social meetup, they would definitely sleep in the same bed and would also share the same blanket.
Just as he was about to get up, a blanket fell from above.
Fang Shu Juan quickly caught it. As soon as he touched it, he could still feel residual heat. It was obvious that it was only just recently used to cover someone up.
Hearing that ruckus, Su Min tried to hold back his laughter, “Why didn’t you bring your own blanket?”
Fang Shu Juan said: “I forgot.”
He stood up and placed the blanket back onto the upper bunk. He said in a low voice: “I don’t need it.”
Yin Ze said: “Then why were you making a ruckus about it earlier?”
Fang Shu Juan said: “Now you don’t even allow me to speak?”
Having said that, Yin Ze had nothing to say in retaliation. He received his blanket and used it to cover himself again.
Fang Shu Juan called the prison guard over again. He returned to his room and brought back his own pillow and blanket.
Being asked to come and go, the prison guard wasn’t happy: “It’s just a social meetup so why are you being so difficult?”
Fang Shu Juan didn’t answer him.
The door was once again locked up and the prison guard left quickly. Before he left, he even specifically warned him not to find him later if it was nothing important.
Fang Shu Juan shrugged. He went back at sat down on the bed below Yin Ze’s.
Su Min didn’t understand why they would want to hurt each other so much.
He laid back in bed and felt that, with one more person here tonight, Chen Su probably wouldn’t appear. Finally, he could sleep peacefully.
But as soon as this thought appeared, Chen Su was on his bed.
Su Min: “…………..”
He really did appear as soon as he thought about him. Was he this amazing?
Chen Su leaned over and said: “You were so cute today.”
Hearing him say that, Su Min knew instantly what he was referring to. He must be referring to the incidents he saw in the infirmary.
He said: “I didn’t see you then.”
Chen Su made a sound of recognition, “I didn’t appear.”
Su Min didn’t continue asking. He internally wondered what this meant. His ability to see him without appearing was something special.
Afterall, he would be able to sense it if ghosts appeared.
Fang Shu Juan heard the noises on his end. He thought for a moment and asked: “Were you talking to me just now?”
“No.” Su Min glanced at Chen Su, “I have a habit of talking to myself. Don’t worry about it.”
Fang Shu Juan let out an ‘oh’, and no longer questioned his actions.
He had only heard about people having a habit of talking in their sleep, but he had never heard of a strange habit of talking to oneself.
In particular, his impression of Su Min was that he was very calm. Today’s visit to the infirmary was probably the only time here where he wasn’t acting like himself.
Chen Su moved closer, “Two more days.”
Su Min hummed and reminded: “Just don’t forget it yourself.”
He didn’t want Chen Su to deny it at that time and make him wait three days for nothing. It was just seeing his face so what’s the big deal?
He guessed that the movie would probably end in about two days.
Chen Su chuckled, “I won’t.”
