Wang Xing casually dropped the Kuman Thong onto the nightstand in her bedroom. Remembering that she had to give it some offerings, she turned towards the refrigerator and took out a piece of beef she had bought previously. She carelessly steamed it and placed it into a bowl when she was done. Afterwards, she put the bowl in front of Kuman Thong.
Wang Xing glanced at Kuman Thong’s face, her chest tightening. She couldn’t help but frown, feeling a little disgusted.
When she looked around the room that was so large, she was reminded of Li Haibo and Yang Meili. Suddenly, she thought of something and panicked. She directly picked up her phone from the bed and dialed Liang Jing. Meanwhile, she also swiftly changed her clothes, planning to go out and meet him.
She had just reached the front door when she abruptly recalled something. Once again, Wang Xing rushed back to her bedroom and grabbed the Kuman Thong, stuffing it into her pocket.
Outside.
It was already very late, so there were almost no people walking on the streets. Several small shops were the only ones still open. The streetlights emitted a faint glow, but it was unlikely that they would be able to affect the surrounding darkness.
Wang Xing was cautious with every step she took. Her eyes shifted left and right, fearing that she would encounter some sort of accident.
She unconsciously walked alongside the outermost edge of the road. Although there were only a few deserted cars on it, she was quite frightened.
There were no public buses during nighttime, and there weren’t even that many taxis. Luckily, the house Wang Xing rented was close to Liang Jing’s, and it didn’t really take a long time to walk between the two.
“D*mn, move aside for this Laozi! Walking so slowly, are you looking for death?!”
Wang Xing was dumbfounded as a man violently shoved her. Perhaps because she was originally feeling weak in her heart, she directly tumbled onto the ground. The Kuman Thong in her pocket fell out, letting out a “dong” sound.
Wang Xing hurriedly picked up the Kuman Thong and stood up, shaking unsteadily.
The man was walking very rapidly, and he soon broke into a run. He seemed to be a little hooligan, as his hair was dyed gold and his clothes had a □□ appearance.
Wang Xing suddenly realized something. She felt around in her pocket, only to discover that her phone had already been stolen!
She trembled with anger, wanting to chase after the man. But before she could advance, the scene in front of her eyes completely stunned her.
“Boom!” There was a loud noise!
A red unlicensed car actually collided with the man! Its speed was extremely fast! The man’s head caved in as it was smashed into a bloody pulp. Wang Xing hadn’t even reacted when the car backed up again and repeatedly crushed the man! Afterwards, the car swiftly fled the scene. In the end, Wang Xing didn’t even know whether the driver was male or female.
Although the lighting was poor in the area, Wang Xing could still vaguely see the blood flowing on the ground, as well as the man’s hands and feet. His mutilated flesh, which had been ground by the car’s tires, was visible.
“AHHH!” A scream instantly erupted from somewhere nearby. The few people on this road had all seen what had happened. Wang Xing’s legs softened as she collapsed. Cold sweat poured from her.
If the man hadn’t pushed her, at her normal pace, wouldn’t she have been the one hit by the car when she arrived there?
She thought of Xiao Chen’s words as her eyes involuntarily returned to the Kuman Thong in her hand.
Was this really because of it?
“It really has an effect?” Liang Jing was somewhat surprised.
“En.” Wang Xing’s face was pale, and it seemed like she hadn’t recovered from the shock yet.
After listening to Wang Xing, Liang Jing was a bit excited. However, he quickly forced himself to calm down. “Let’s first call Yuan Zhong and Xiao Chen over here. If this is real, we won’t have to die!”
“That’s too great!” Yuan Zhong was thrilled. But after a while, he abruptly froze. He looked embarrassed as he worriedly asked, “How much did you buy this Kuman Thong for?”
Yuan Zhong’s family was extremely poor. Whenever possible, he would go and work in order to earn money. Usually, he lived frugally, unlike the other members of the club. They could rent a house close to the school, but Yuan Zhong actually lived in the school. Right now, it was too difficult for him to pull out a lot of money for some sort of toy like the Kuman Thong. On a normal occasion, he would never do that even if he was beaten to death.
“Five thousand.” Wang Xing replied, revealing the price.
“What?” Yuan Zhong’s face immediately turned red. “So expensive?”
Wang Xing explained, “This can’t even be considered expensive! The good ones cost tens of thousands.”
“Not to mention, Kuman Thong doesn’t originate from China in the first place. If you’re a bit careless, you could purchase fake goods!” Wang Xing swallowed, feeling nauseous as her stomach churned.
“But…” Yuan Zhong appeared like he wanted to respond.
Liang Jing couldn’t endure anymore. He interrupted the two, saying, “Look at how far the situation has progressed! You’re still thinking of money? Is money more important than your life?”
Yuan Zhong stopped talking, but his face was still a little stiff.
“Alright, it’s good if it works. If nothing happens to you guys, I’ll be very happy.” Xiao Chen had been the background for a long time. At the right moment, he decided to join the conversation. But the tone of his voice was flat, and maybe even cold. On the other hand, Xiao Chen usually spoke like this, so everyone didn’t think it was strange.
Liang Jing couldn’t help but take a few peeks at Xiao Chen. He felt that the other would always change unpredictably. This feeling was too strong. Liang Jing had the sense that Xiao Chen knew everything, and was just playing with him like he was a mouse, nothing more than a toy.
“Xiao Chen, how do you know so much?” Liang Jing couldn’t resist the temptation and brought forth this question.
Instantly, everyone stared at Xiao Chen.
They were all curious about the answer.
“Maybe because my boyfriend is very proficient in this aspect,” Xiao Chen casually replied. He sat on a chair, flexing his toes. When he said the word “boyfriend”, he smiled weirdly.
“Boyfriend? You…” Liang Jing choked. He completely hadn’t imagined that Xiao Chen was gay!
Wang Xing and Yuan Zhong were also astonished, but Wang Xing recovered in little time.
Indeed, Xiao Chen’s appearance was too outstanding! As a girl, she felt ashamed whenever she was compared with him.
So when she heard Xiao Chen admit he had a boyfriend, she was mildly surprised, but not too shocked.
Yuan Zhong grasped the main point and said, “Your boyfriend understands these kinds of things? You already know so much! Then, could you ask your boyfriend to help us?”
“That’s fine!” Xiao Chen immediately agreed. He smiled, his pair of lucky phoenix eyes narrowing. “Next time, I’ll bring you guys to get acquainted with my boyfriend.”
Xiao Chen’s expression seemed innocent, but for some reason, a chill emerged in Liang Jing’s heart when he faced the other.
“Is this real or fake? Is this thing so useful?” Yuan Zhong’s eyes glowed, but he soon frowned again. “But I need a Kuman Thong, not a Thai Buddha amulet.”
The boy rolled his eyes. “What’s the difference? Let me tell you, a Kuman Thong is made with a stillborn baby! This Thai Buddha amulet is made with the bone ashes of an adult and corpse oil! Haven’t you already realized which one has more power? Moreover! I had to plead with several people to acquire this! It’s a total of only one thousand, which is much cheaper than the Kuman Thong!”
Yuan Zhong thought that the boy made sense, but he was still hesitant.
“I’ll say this, there is no other shop like this one! If you don’t buy this amulet, I can easily sell it at a higher price. If I didn’t take into account that you’re my brother, I wouldn’t be here,” the boy impatiently said.
Yuan Zhong nodded, patting the boy’s shoulder. “Okay! I’ll buy it!” Afterwards, he pulled the money out of his pocket, his expression pained.
Once the boy received the money, he was instantly happy in his heart. He beamed as he said, “That’s good! If you want anything in the future, you can contact me!” Then, he left without looking back!
“Baby, let me tell you, I just met a fool today. Remember the Thai Buddha amulet I took from my uncle’s place last time? I sold it! It sold for a thousand!”
“Yes, yes! That one! Hai, what are you afraid of? In this modern age, you still believe in this? Don’t worry! No one will die! Even if someone dies, it isn’t possible that anything will happen to me.”
The boy energetically talked on the phone.
The man held Xiao Chen in his embrace. A morbid, possessive desire flashed across his eyes. But he quickly suppressed himself and returned to calmness.
“Kiss me.” Xiao Chen was never shy about these things.
The man’s expression changed again. He bit Xiao Chen’s left ear, the veins on his forehead bulging as he tried to restrain his emotions.
Eyebrows, nose, lips, jaw, Adam’s apple, collarbone…Every part was exceedingly delicious to him.
The man’s eyesight was very good. Even in the middle of the night, he could see everything around him without using a light source.
Just like.
At this time, Xiao Chen wore a slightly □□ expression.
The man caressed Xiao Chen’s face and grinned.
This was his only treasure! His only reverse scale!
T/N: A lot of you guys want me to reveal the novel I mentioned in the previous chapter. It’s called “After I Died, the Scum Gong’s Grief was Too Much for Him to Live”, and it has a 3.4 rating and 2 hate reviews on NU. The thing is, the website this novel is posted on is the Chinese, BL version of Wattpad. That should already say a lot. Expect extreme abuse when a novel is tagged with abuse, and expect a full-blown, mindless yandere when it’s written in the summary.
Now, is anyone curious about what the translator has been up to these days? It all started a week or so ago, when I was browsing NU as usual. Suddenly, I stumbled across a recommendation list titled “OP/Awesome Protags”.
Translator: Ah sh*t, here we go agin.
But as I scrolled through this list, a wave nostalgia hit me in the face. Star Rank Hunter, God of Crime, The Lazy King, Trafford’s Trading Club, No Hero…
Translator: Hold up. How long has it been since I read my first novel translation? Moreover, which novel was it???
For some reason, I couldn’t erase these questions from my mind. So, I decided to embark on a journey to the past. It turns out that I’ve been on NU for at least 4 years, and quite possibly 5 years. But perhaps my most intriguing discovery was my first BL novel.
It was Eclipse Hunter. Yes, you read it correctly. I sincerely paired the two brothers together, especially since the older brother was so overprotective. That might have been my first exposure to the world of yanderes. It didn’t help that one of my next novels was City of Endless Rain…I was obsessed with that novel for a long time.
Congratulations if you made it down here. While I was sorting through my laptop, I managed to find some of my old BL manhua translations. So, I want to ask you guys if there’s any website for BL manhua like CG is for novels?
