Chapter 219 - Clapback (2/2)

Doctor Lou obviously continued his recounting, ”...After so many mishaps, I came up with the brilliant idea of this bracelet. With it, I never needed to search anymore. So whenever I lost her or forgot hehe~ I easily followed the bracelet right to her. It made my life a lot easi-”

”Tracking. It's a tracking device?” Lei Xing asked in surprise.

”Of course, how do you think I found you?” Doctor Lou immediately froze after those words left his mouth. He sat there blinking at Lei Xing and Lei Xing mirrored his expression, completely stunned by this revelation. While Tung Mei just refilled her wine cup, completely on the outside of this conversation.

”You found me with this?” Lei Xing finally asked with a raised eyebrow. She had never really thought about how Doctor Lou happened to find her that night.

Doctor Lou raised an eyebrow, then straightened up and looked off to the side and responded out the side of his mouth, ”Well...yes. Also saved you from making a big mistake too.”

Lei Xing knit her brows, ”But how did you- Wait, wait, wait, do you know there's a-” She remembered Bi Lu was there and then lowered her voice to a whisper, ”... voice entity in the bracelet?” Then she shook her head, ”Of course, you know, you made it...What is it?”

Doctor Lou c.o.c.ked his head in her direction and then blinked at her a few times, seemingly in surprise. Then he raised an eyebrow, ”Hmmm...” He turned to Tung Mei and then asked her, ”What do you think?”

”I don't want to know what she thinks, I want to know what you think!” Lei Xing irritatedly cut in, she then lowered her voice and said through gritted teeth, ”This thing has been terrorizing my life!”

”Terrorizing?” Doctor Lou immediately frowned, ”Saved your life and stopped you from making terrible mistakes on many occasions. Also, a great friend and what did you do, you ungrateful little brat?! If anyone was being terrorized, it was me! Do you know how precious those precious gems are?! And you even tried to smash it with a stupid inkstone! Even if it wouldn't have made a dent, I could not stand for my precious gems to be disrespected like that!-”

”You almost gave me a heart attack! You were trying to kill me and yet I graciously forgave you, but now you say I was terrorizing you? No, you are clearly the terrorist here and I am a great, great, brilliant person! I deserve your respect and so do all of my precious, precious gems!” Doctor Lou let everything out in one breath and was now holding his heaving chest for dramatic effect as he took deep breaths to calm himself.

How dare she insult his goodwill like this?!

Tung Mei let out a defeated sigh and shook her head as she just covered her face with both her hands. On the other end, Lei Xing just sat there staring at him with her mouth open, her confusion and shock were clear on her face.

Lei Xing blinked as she recovered from the shock, ”So you're - but - how? - Why?!” She asked, completely baffled by why he would do all this to her. She expected to hear a secret about some entity or other trapped in the bracelet or...She honestly did not know what she expected, but she didn't expect this.

It made no sense.

Doctor Lou straightened up and haughtily looked off to the side and responded, ”Well...You started it...and I was bored.”

”Started it?”Lei Xing exclaimed in disbelief as she held her forehead, her mind was having a hard time processing this.

{...What the hell? I didn't start any-...}

{...*Next time when I say leave me alone, you leave me alone! ( ￣^￣ )...}

Lei Xing blinked up at Doctor Lou looking at her with challenging raised eyebrows. Lei Xing was flabbergasted and annoyed by his accusing expression and she immediately defended herself, ”Even if I ”started it”, I only kept it hostage for a few days, you've been keeping me hostage for months! ”

Doctor Lou blinked, then he leaned forward and quietly said, ”That...sounds like a you problem.” Then he snorted, put a hand over his mouth and snickered as he sat back up and informed, ”I've been wanting to say that for a long time. It is a really great line~”

Lei Xing frowned as her lips twitched in annoyance. She was speechless, confused, angry and a whole bunch of other emotions she could not identify at the moment. Her mind was reeling.

Doctor Lou smirked and narrowed his eyes at her, ”Tell me, how does it feel when it's ”your” problem?” Doctor Lou snickered again, ”You know another line I really like?...” He paused for effect and then told her, ”Wouldn't you like to know.” Then he howled in laughter as Lei Xing sat there with a confused frown. Trying to digest the information while being ridiculed by this boisterous laughter was even more irritating for Lei Xing.

It made even less sense the more she thought about it.

{...I started it - He was bored - Was this all a joke?... My life was a joke? ( ಠಠ )..}
