279 Reporter Magne (2/2)
Just doing a friend a favor also needs money? Luo Mingxin gritted his teeth and showed two fingers. ”2,000 RMB.”
Oh well, at least someone is paying for dinner. Ye Shuang nodded satisfactorily. She finished the apple and tossed the core behind her, throwing it accurately into the trash can. ”Deal!”
…
The reporters had experience dealing with stubborn interviewees. They opened the newspaper and sat down on the stairs and corridor. Biscuits and take-out could solve the problem of food, and they had their phones to pass the time. As long as the news was still hot and their editor did not say anything, none of the reporters would leave their spot and let the interviewee go.
Therefore, if Luo Mingxin did not ask for outside help, these reporters might really wait there for four days. Yan Si eventually had to go out for food or for examination. But this time, things did not go the way that they expected.
They had just taken out the newspapers and phones and prepared for a long war when the door opposite from Yan Si's place opened. Ye Shuang, wearing a cap and sunglasses that blocked half of her face, appeared.
The reporters heard the door open and all looked up. When they saw that it was not their target, they moved away for the person to go through. However, the girl that they saw did not walk through them but walked to the door opposite and raised her hand knock on the door. ”Yan Si, let's go for dinner.”
The casualness of her tone instantly triggered various plots in people's minds. This neighbor relationship… there was potential for news!
The young master was down on his luck, but the girl stayed by his side. The woman supporting him silently. The love that survived the many highs and lows…
In just a few minutes, many headlines crossed their minds, and every single one of them was highly explosive. The reporters took out their camera reflexively. They also readied their pen and paper to jot down anything that happened. They did not even dare to breathe too loud lest they interrupted the conversation between the two.
”If you don't come out, don't blame me for being rough.” Ye Shuang ignored the reporters and ruined the atmosphere by cracking her knuckles. The snapping of her fingers filled up the quiet corridor. ”Don't make me break that other leg of yours.”
The eager expressions on the crowd's faces stiffened. Wait, this is different from the plot in our mind!
Yan Si opened the wooden door inside and left the outer steel door closed. ”What do you want again?”
”What do you mean, again?” Ye Shuang frowned with annoyance. ”We're neighbors. You should be thankful that someone is willing to treat you to dinner.”
”Then I should have thanked you, shouldn't I?” Yan Si started to grit his teeth. He did not believe Ye Shuang's kindness at all. ”We've already decided to mind our own business, so if you have anything, just say it directly!”
Could she say it directly? There was a celebrity hiding at her place, and he might be exposed because of him… Ye Shuang sighed. ”Just come out to dinner with me.”
”Never!” Yan Si was not a pushover and wanted to slam the door shut, but he underestimated Ye Shuang. She pushed two fingers through the gap of the steel door and stopped the wooden door from closing. Yan Si pushed hard, but the door did not even budge.
The two fingers looked slender and fair, and Yan Si had practically leaned his whole body against the door. The fingers holding the door did not move; the joints did not even bend… just like an adult playing with a boy.
The reporters' jaw fell—they thought that they were hallucinating. This has to be fake! How can something so unscientific happen? How does the girl who looks so soft have such monstrous strength? Yan Si, who is leaning against the door, must be faking it. He probably isn't using any of his strength! Or else the door must be broken…
They had just figured that out when the impatient Ye Shuang raised her other hand. They saw the fair arm grabbed the lock of the steel door and twisted it…
After the sound of the metal twisting, the real steel lock was easily twisted by the gentle-looking girl into a ball of metal, and she casually dropped it on the ground. The metal created a ringing voice as it bounced on the ground, and everyone's heart beat seemed to follow it.
Yan Si was shocked.
The reporters were shocked.
Even after Ye Shuang opened the useless steel door and then picked Yan Si up from the ground, the crowd still had not regained their senses.
”We're just going for dinner; I'm not going to rape you…” Ye Shuang was speechless. As she held the man in one hand, she even closed the door for him with another.
Yan Si recovered suddenly, and his terrified voice almost rose a whole pitch. ”You still want to rape me‽”
”…” Ye Shuang.
