默读/SILENT READING Bk 2

Luo Wenzhou was in fact only calm on the surface. Having just eaten a certain person’s full broadside of harassment, those last husky words were still going around and around beside his ear, making his heart flutter. All he wanted was to make the entire world shut up. Therefore he irritably responded, “What if someone’s planted a bomb in the wall of remains?”

The storage room’s manager gave him a shocked look, evidently taking Luo Wenzhou for a novel type of psychopath.

Luo Wenzhou had the perturbed thought that if he carried on like this, one day he just might take a shine to Luo Yiguo’s big fluffy tail.

Luo Wenzhou sighed, then raised a hand out of habit. But he waited an age, and the partner who normally would have given him a high five hadn’t moved.

Luo Wenzhou turned awkwardly and saw that Tao Ran was circling Chang Ning. Chang Ning’s tears were still flowing, and Tao Ran was quietly saying something comforting, getting a handkerchief out of his pocket and passing it to her. He’d entirely forgotten about having a partner.

Luo Wenzhou: “…”

There was actually a man on earth who valued sex over friendship this much!

Just then, the palm he hadn’t yet pulled back was lightly patted. Flabbergasted, Luo Wenzhou turned his head. He saw that the crippled president Fei Du, his arm hanging, had strolled over beside him, and furthermore from some unknown motive had condescended to do such a superfluous thing.

Having done it, he unhurriedly put his hand in his pocket and looked at Luo Wenzhou with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile. “How childish, Captain Luo.”

Luo Wenzhou was speechless. He stared wide-eyed as this temporary staff member, as a matter of course, got into his car and composedly crossed his legs, waiting to be driven.
