Gu Mang’s eyes shifted slightly. She made eye contact with Lu Chengzhou’s bloodshot eyes.

  After a while, she propped up her face in her bloodstained hands and answered slowly, “Nope.”


  Lu Chengzhou was silent.

  Gu Mang lifted her chin to point at the electric chair. “Get on. I will personally set up something for you and then we will consider it even.”


  He Yidu and Qin Fang were speechless.

  Lu Chengzhou looked in the direction of the electric chair without hesitation. “Okay.”


  He Yidu’s expression changed slightly. His mouth twitched but he did not utter a word. He just stared at them. Qin Fang was also really anxious. After Lu Chengzhou spoke, he stretched out his long legs and sat up on the floor. There was a numbing pain in his chest, so he pressed on it and coughed lightly. Gu Mang squinted at him.

  Lu Chengzhou rested for a short while and wanted to get up. As soon as he moved his upper body, Gu Mang grabbed his wrist. He couldn’t help but gasp. His arm was broken. When she touched it, it hurt so much that he frowned in pain.

  Gu Mang looked at his weak arm that was hanging limply and her eyes darkened. She let go of his hand and bit the corner of her lips without uttering a word. Seeing Gu Mang touch his hand, Lu Chengzhou was rather surprised. He looked up.

  She’s willing to touch me already?

  Gu Mang did not look at him. Her droopy eyes were fixed on his arm.

  This time, Lu Chengzhou was a little bit unsure of what Gu Mang was thinking. He paused and said in a low voice, “You said it. You’ll set up something on your own and we will call it even.”


  Gu Mang did not make a sound at all. Lu Chengzhou looked away and moved to get up again. But as he tried doing so, Gu Mang pushed him down from the shoulder. Lu Chengzhou fell back onto the chair. He turned his gaze to her.

  The two of them were facing each other. He was sitting while she was half-squatting.

  “Lunatic.” Gu Mang looked up. Her beautiful eyes were purely black and white. There was iciness behind them as well.

  Her tone was feisty.

  Lu Chengzhou understood what she said and he laughed. “Am I?”


  Gu Mang’s eyes seemed rather cold.

  The smile on the corner of Lu Chengzhou’s mouth stiffened slightly. “Does it hurt?”


  The expression in Gu Mang’s eyes still did not change. She only moved her fingers. Lu Chengzhou looked at her and paused. Then, he reached up to press the back of her neck. It was very wet and it seemed like she had broken out in a cold sweat.

  He frowned slightly and his heart began to hurt. Lu Chengzhou had lost too much blood and his hands were cold. Gu Mang did not move.

  “No one really understands exactly how another person feels,” Lu Chengzhou said. His voice was hoarse. He pinched the back of her neck. “Only after experiencing it for myself do I know how much I hurt you.”


  Gu Mang bit her lip and could not make out what kind of feeling she was feeling.Her heart was full.

  Lu Chengzhou rubbed her ears with his thumb. “Come on, let it all out.”


  He moved again.

  “Enough,” Gu Mang suddenly said.

  Lu Chengzhou was stunned.

  Gu Mang looked at him expressionlessly. Her voice was dull and indifferent. “I don’t want to have to save you again, it’s tiring.”


  He Yidu and Qin Fang breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

  “What do you mean? You want to go back on your words?” Lu Chengzhou frowned, his eyes were very serious. “You already said it. You will set something up and this matter will be over.”


  Gu Mang looked into his eyes.

  After a long while, the corner of her mouth curved up to what seemed like a smile. Her delicate eyebrows revealed a bit of evil. “Don’t be pretentious with me.”


  Lu Chengzhou looked at her. They made eye contact for a few seconds and he smiled.

  His hand was still on her neck and he whispered, “I’m not pretending, but I’m just not sure if this is real.”


  Gu Mang did not reply.

  Lu Chengzhou asked her again, “Is this matter now considered a thing of the past?”


  Gu Mang licked her lips. Her tone was rather calm. “I’m tired, I’m going to sleep.”


  After she spoke, she pushed his arm away but as soon as she tried to move away, she felt Lu Chengzhou’s hand on the back of her neck keeping her in place. Lu Chengzhou’s face got closer and closer to hers.
