Chapter 127: Rotten Peach Blossom
Just as Yan Shuzhou walked in, he overheard their conversation and cast a curious glance at them.
"Are you going to get something?"
Even more naive and ignorant people arrived.
Ji Yuanzhou felt a chill in his heart, realizing he was in a difficult situation.
As far as he knew, although Yan Shuzhou was a rare summoning-type ability user, he basically had no offensive power and only played a supporting role. If they were to fight, he would easily get injured.
Their most skilled person is Tu Hao.
So what is Tu Hao doing now?
Ji Yuanzhou looked around and then realized that Tu Hao hadn't come over at all. Instead, he was standing by the wall near the corridor, staring at a notice board and seemingly studying some national affairs.
But refusing them wouldn't work either; he couldn't be sure if they were really going to take them to get the blankets, or if it was just an excuse.
If it's true that he's overthinking things, then that's for the best.
If it's a pretext, then even if there isn't one, there will be another.
Just because he can refuse one doesn't mean he can refuse the next.
There are many people here, including those with special abilities, so we might not have an advantage in a fight.
"What are you thinking about, handsome?" The woman, smelling of perfume, moved closer to him, her soft arm almost touching his clothes.
Ji Yuanzhou took a step back, adjusted his slipping glasses, and said, "It's nothing. Where's the room? Let's go get it together."
Given Tu Hao's personality, he wouldn't act for anyone without Miao Yin's orders. Leaving Yan Shuzhou here would be too dangerous; it would be better to go with him.
The women glanced at Yan Shuzhou, who was equally handsome, and their smiles became even more subtle.
Who would have thought that this seemingly serious man was such a playboy?
“Okay, we don’t mind going together. Come on, this way.” They winked and led the way.
The group walked deeper into the sixth floor, where there was a storage room.
"Where are we going?" the woman named Kou Xin suddenly called out to them.
The women, who were arm in arm and smiling, froze for a moment, then immediately put on a somewhat fawning expression.
"I'm just taking them to the storage room to get some things for tonight's sleep, you know what I mean, Sister Kou."
Kou didn't even need to look up to know what they were thinking.
Want to keep this good stuff all to yourself?
She chuckled and said, "Getting things? Let's do it together. I'll also get to know the new couple. If we go upstairs later, we won't have a chance."
Kou Xin was clearly of a much higher status than the others, and upon hearing this, the others readily agreed.
The six of them marched toward the storage room in a grand procession, as if they were about to conduct a major raid.
The storage room was originally a meeting room, where they piled up all the personal items they brought back from their trips—plastic cups, bed sheets, lamps…it looked very messy.
The tents they need to take are located closer to the inside.
"It's inside, go get it," Kou Xin said.
"Okay, thank you," Ji Yuanzhou said.
But after taking only a few steps inside, he heard a "click".
The last woman to enter locked the door.
Ji Yuanzhou immediately became alert: "Why is the door locked?"
The woman feigned ignorance, saying, "Isn't it because I'm afraid some clueless person might disturb our good time?"
"……what?"
She propped herself up with one hand and gracefully sat on the conference table, casually unbuttoning her coat to reveal her collarbone.
"Handsome, what are you waiting for? It's getting late."
Kou Xin laughed and cursed, "You slut, you're more proactive than any man."
The people around her also laughed and mocked her for looking like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey.
Even the slow-witted Ji Yuanzhou finally realized that something was wrong.
"Wait, what are you doing..." He took a few steps back in shock, along with Yan Shuzhou, who was equally bewildered.
Alarms were blaring in his mind when he suddenly remembered Zhang Zhenzhen, the confession in the dark fishing boat, and the chaotic and twisted love between the two couples and the pianist.
Dead memories begin to attack him.jpg
"Hmm? Still acting? Innocent man? Hahaha, handsome guy, you're so funny." The woman had already taken off her coat, revealing two snow-white arms.
"No, um... you've misunderstood. We just came to get a tent," Ji Yuanzhou said, trying to appear calm as he shook off Zhang Zhenzhen's shadow.
Upon hearing this, the woman's expression froze: "What?"
After looking closely and seeing that Ji Yuanzhou didn't seem to be faking it and was genuinely embarrassed, the other two women also looked displeased.
"Hahahaha—" Kou Xin laughed mercilessly, "How can someone be so presumptuous, offering themselves up to someone who doesn't want them!"
Several women with ulterior motives secretly rolled their eyes, their faces turning ashen, daring not to speak out in anger.
Seeing that things were not going well, Ji Yuanzhou immediately said, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood. It's not your fault. Let's go out now."
"Wait," Kou Xin stopped them.
"Don't be in such a hurry to leave. It's not fair for you to humiliate our people like this. Since you're already here, stop pretending to be a gentleman." She patted the conference table next to her.
Upon seeing this, the women immediately blocked their path.
Just kidding, how can such an embarrassing situation just end like this?
He has no choice but to stay today!
"Two handsome men, a night of passion is worth a thousand pieces of gold. Don't you think it's going too far to leave such a group of beautiful women like us to hang out with those stinky men?"
"...I have no such plans. I'm sorry, you should look for someone else."
“I… just turned 18,” Yan Shuzhou stammered out.
"Ha! How novel! You refuse what's offered to you, thinking you're the one who's losing out? What, are you looking down on us?"
Kou Xin's status was higher than theirs, and she already knew about Su Yongfeng's order to kill these men. Since they were all going to die anyway, she might as well make the most of them and have some fun with them one last time.
She gave a wink to the women behind her, and they understood and walked toward them.
The two of them involuntarily retreated, just like Tang Sanzang who had entered the Spider Cave, completely at a loss.
"Don't do that, I'll take action," Ji Yuanzhou warned.
"What? You're going to hit a woman? A person without superpowers is quite arrogant. Young man, you'd better behave yourself. You won't lose out in this."
With Kou Xin still in control, the group completely ignored his threats.
Ji Yuanzhou and Yan Shuzhou exchanged a helpless glance.
[We have no choice but to expose ourselves.]
As the person drew closer, he raised his hand, and a burst of white lightning exploded from his palm, shattering the light bulb!
The lightning crackled and popped, and the white light momentarily blinded everyone.
"what!!!"
The women were startled by the sudden turn of events. They instinctively lowered their heads, hugged each other, and huddled together, covering their eyes. Even Kou Xin raised her hand to protect herself.
"go!"
Ji Yuanzhou pulled Yan Shuzhou onto the conference table, and with a few large strides, they passed them and arrived at the door.
Another bolt of lightning struck, knocking off the door lock. He kicked the door open and ran out.
Outside the door, those whose attention was drawn by the noise stood up and reached for their weapons.
Tu Hao, who was standing in front of the notice board, also turned around and looked in the direction of the storage room.
"Damn it! This guy has superpowers! That woman lied to us!"
Realizing what was happening, Kou Xin cursed and immediately gave chase, shouting after them, "They're superhumans! Catch them!"
