Stay calm!

It was still dark. The medical facility was located underground, and there were only air vents and no windows, so the room was pitch black without the lights.

Ren Suo, calm down and think with your head…

Ren Suo closed his eyes and regulated his breathing. The confidence of always being in control in the game rose in Ren Suo once again.

You are the Hitman who once appeared in the Bloody Banquet…

You are the Seeker who once climbed 10,000 meters…

You are the Practitioner of the Ren family with a tragic fate, who was burdened with the responsibility of eliminating monsters and demons…

You are the All-Devouring Soul that will soon be known for deceiving everyone…

A turbulent sense of pride emerged in Ren Suo’s heart, and his undefeated wisdom as he trumped countless battlefields emerged in his brain! He put all his thoughts together, calmed down and relaxed his body, and decided that—

—He would go back to sleep.

Perhaps he was dreaming? If he fell asleep, could he not be fully awake again?

Perhaps he was too sleepy and it was just his imagination? All would be well if he slept for a while more.

“The game did not teach me how to handle such a situation! And I can’t possibly save the game and reload the save file to try and see what happens when I react differently!”

Ren Suo could not resist the sense of weakness that radiated from the bottom of his heart. He felt just like a newborn baby who had just emerged from his mother’s womb. He felt so overwhelmed suddenly as if he was watching Godzilla jumping to her death in front of him and was at a complete loss about what to do. He thought, “I should just close my eyes and sleep.”

At that juncture, Ren Suo was just like the pangolin within 100 meters from him—it would dig a pit to bury itself and ignore all the circumstances that were happening outside which it could not comprehend.

The moment he closed his eyes, however, Ren Suo heard a gentle but muffled “mmm” from Qiao Muyi who was on his right. Yet, in the quiet space, the sound she made was no less than a loud, thundering breath.

Perhaps it would be easier to think of Ren Suo now as a student who had already started school but had not his holiday homework, and was extremely anxious as he awaited his fate of judgment from the teacher!

“…?”

Ren Suo could hear that Qiao Muyi’s breathing was becoming disordered. It seemed that she was starting to remember what happened last night. Then, the next scene should be the eternally embarrassing moment Ren Suo did not want to face—

—A tease.

As Ren Suo waited for Qiao Muyi to sit up or start talking, he felt a movement of the left hand he was holding in his right hand.

A finger was writing letters in his palm.

“Is, there, someone, else?”

Hallelujah!

Ren Suo suddenly became rejuvenated and felt as if there was a great angel lying beside him who had her own strategies and knew everything! At that moment, Ren Suo was willing to attribute all praise to her—it was like the student Ren Suo who had not completed his holiday assignments gladly finding out that Qiao Muyi who was sitting beside him seemed to have completed them!

Ren Suo wrote on her palm with his finger: “Yes.”

She wrote: “Oh, gonna be fun.”

—However, it seemed that Qiao Muyi was not willing to help him so easily.

Ren Suo continued to await the physical punishment from the teacher in his fate. However, after a moment, Qiao Muyi asked, writing: “The lights would not turn on if there are only small movements?”

“Yes.”

Oh? At that moment, Ren Suo also figured out how to resolve the situation.

Apart from the mystery about how Dong Chengling came into the room, the fact was that Qiao Muyi had come in first. Normally, if anyone saw Ren Suo and Qiao Muyi lying together in bed, their first reaction must have been envy and jealousy and hate… No, countless questions would arise in their minds and that would become a topic for gossip. Or perhaps, they would wake them up, but it was even more likely for them to turn around and leave instead.

Regardless, the reaction should not have been “+1”, “count me in”, or “come on, I want to join in too”. Even his sister who had a loose screw in her brain would not think of doing that!

As such, Ren Suo deduced a possibility—Dong Chengling had not seen anything at all.

The bed in the room was far away from the door. The light from outside when the door was opened could, at the most, allow her to see the position of the bed, but not what was on the bed.

If Dong Chengling came in without making any large movements, she might not have triggered the light sensor in the room, which meant that it was completely dark when she came in.

In that case, she must have assumed that Ren Suo was lying on the bed alone, which was why she… eh?

It was all thanks to Ren Suo’s laziness that the sensitivity of the lights was very low, and the lights would not turn on as long as Qiao Muyi moved slowly and gently. Otherwise, Dong Chengling would be able to see everything… eh?

Comparing “being seen by Dong Chengling when on the bed with Qiao Muyi” and “she realized that she was lying on the bed with Ren Suo and Qiao Muyi”, it seemed that, perhaps, they had almost the same ending.

Whichever the case, Ren Suo would surely be so embarrassed that he would wish that he could dig a hole in the ground and hide inside like the pangolin.

If it was a month ago, Ren Suo might have been willing to get up and trigger the lights to turn on without much consideration, and he would calmly explain to Dong Chengling that nothing impure happened between the two of them the previous night. There were similarities between his desires and how thick his skin was.

Now, however, it was different. Ren Suo was not willing to do that.

… He just was not willing to do that, and there was no specific reason for it. Simply put, his emotions trumped reason—subconsciously, he just felt that it was not wise for him to do that.

Qiao Muyi wrote in Ren Suo’s palm: “Let me explain. I will not make her misunderstand.”

After a moment of silence, Qiao Muyi did not get a response from Ren Suo and she let go of his hand—

—However, Ren Suo grabbed her hand back the next second.

He wrote in her palm: “I’ll do it, you’re only here to help me. I can’t let you take on such a role.”

After a moment of silence, Ren Suo did not get a response from Qiao Muyi and he took a deep breath, ready to tighten the grip on his left hand to wake Dong Chengling.

He had to do it even though he was unwilling. It was the same in a reality where there were too many things people were “unwilling” to do that made the phrase “I do” so precious.

Yet, the next second, his hand was grabbed back tightly by Qiao Muyi again.

She wrote: “Or, we could take a gamble.”

A gamble?

Ren Suo hesitated for a moment and realized that Qiao Muyi had released her grip on his right hand. She moved very slowly and gently, and got out of the bed—

The lights were still off.

Indeed, Ren Suo had to thank his laziness!

Ren Suo immediately realized what Qiao Muyi was thinking of doing. He remained motionless and relaxed instead, as he turned his head to look at the face so close to him, but was shielded by the black curtain of darkness. He knew what he was doing was of no help, but Ren Suo subconsciously felt that looking at Dong Chengling could make her sleep more soundly.

—Humans always thought that looking at something with eyes full of hope would cause miracles to happen, just like how they thought that glaring at someone they disliked could make them unlucky, and looking at a blank document would be able to make words appear by themselves…

The teacher in Ren Suo’s fate eventually skipped him. He felt that Dong Chengling’s breathing was very calm and there was no sign of her waking up.

On the other hand, Qiao Muyi had already picked up her boots and was slowly moving towards the door and opening it—being confined meant that there was a special checkpoint in the passage outside the door. Ren Suo was not allowed to move to other areas, but that did not mean that the door was locked. If the door was locked, it was not confinement; it would have been imprisonment.

The door was covered with a steel sheet and the door bearings appeared to be of the highest quality. They were well maintained and the door only made a light sound when it opened and closed.

However, that was a completely silent room.

If Ren Suo was running to Practice, he could throw a 1D100 (roll dice with numbers from 0 to 99) to determine whether he would be lucky enough to succeed.

Perhaps Ren Suo was lucky, or perhaps it was Qiao Muyi who was lucky, but fortunately, Dong Chengling had not been awakened.

Ren Suo glanced at the doorway gratefully and saw that Qiao Muyi had opened the door slightly and sneaked out. Illuminated by the light, she raised a finger in front of her mouth and smiled to indicate that Ren Suo should keep quiet. The bright light from outside fell on one side of her face and displayed her mesmerizing charm.

Hallelujah! Once again, Ren Suo was extremely grateful from the bottom of his heart.

At that moment, however, Ren Suo saw Qiao Muyi holding one of his slippers, in addition to her own boots…

What did she want to do?

Ren Suo noticed that Qiao Muyi raised her eyebrows to reveal a sense of ‘endless joy’.

She took aim at the space on the bed beside Ren Suo and threw his slipper towards her target as she closed the door at the same time.

In the darkness, his slipper made a beautiful arc through the air and landed quietly on the soft bed.

The lights turned on.
