Chapter 177 Going Out to Negotiate
Chapter 177 Going Out to Negotiate
Now that the decision to cooperate has been made, the next step is to negotiate and find out each other's bottom line, and determine each other's leverage.
The night is deep.
It's not a good time to go out.
Scarlett told everyone to get plenty of rest and recharge so they could go together tomorrow.
The house wasn't big, and it was quite crowded for seventeen people. Fortunately, Toby and the others weren't picky. They pushed the sofa and coffee table to the corner, laid out blankets, covered themselves with quilts, and slept in the living room.
Tyronn and Brian, who were originally going to sleep in the living room, had nowhere to go, so they had to sleep upstairs and find someone to share the night with.
Brian contacted Ashley.
Tyronn glanced at Riley, "Want to switch?"
Riley smiled faintly. "Okay."
……
……
Scarlett pushed open the bathroom door and looked out, following the light, and saw Tyron sitting on the edge of the bed.
"How come it's you?" she asked in surprise.
Tyron looked up, his deep blue eyes sweeping over Scarlett's face, which was flushed from the heat. "Don't you like seeing me?"
Scarlett paused, then took a step forward. "I remember today is Riley's day."
"He switched with me."
Tyron raised an eyebrow and said nonchalantly, "If you don't like it, I can change it back."
"It's ok."
Scarlett stepped out of the bathroom and pointed to the tent in the room. "And your bed is over there."
Tyron didn't move. "I want to sleep with you."
Scarlett: “…”
I lay down in bed.
There was a large enough distance between Scarlett and Tyron to fit another person in the room.
Scarlett closed her eyes, pretending nothing had happened, and kept hypnotizing herself in her mind.
Go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep.
Once you fall asleep, nothing will happen.
Just then, a restless hand reached out and grabbed her wrist. The next second, Tyron leaned forward and pressed himself against Scarlett, staring into her face with his deep, lonely blue eyes. "Scarlett, you haven't seen Saviour for so many days. Aren't you worried about him?"
Scarlett paused, then suddenly opened her eyes. "What happened to Sevier?"
A cold glint flashed in Tyron's eyes. "If you're worried about him, why haven't you asked me? Aren't you afraid I'll kill him?"
"Would you kill him?" Scarlett asked instead of answering.
Tyron's gaze lingered on Scarlett's calm face. "Yes."
Scarlett paused for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled, her eyes crinkling. "You had a month to 'die' before I arrived, why didn't you do that?"
Tyron looked at her without saying a word.
A sliver of moonlight slanted in, falling into Scarlett's eyes. Her pale golden pupils shimmered, giving her an air of detached indifference, yet her voice was filled with warmth.
“Tyron, you don’t want to die, you never wanted to die. You just need recognition, you need an independent identity, you need someone to truly know you, instead of just remembering you through Sevier’s face.”
Tyron remained silent.
He stared intently at Scarlett.
His icy gaze traced Scarlett's petal-like lips as he watched them open and close, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly, releasing a hint of thirst.
He longed for her.
But he longed even more for her to genuinely love him.
He let go and lay back down in his original position.
a long time.
As the moonlight was about to leave the room.
He asked, "Scarlett, why do you like Sevier?"
Brian asked the same question.
Scarlett recalled her answer from back then and was about to speak when Tyron irritably pulled the blanket over his head and turned his back. "Fine, I don't want to hear it."
Scarlett: “…”
"Furthermore, if our souls lose the support of our bodies, they will temporarily drift on the seabed, where there is no danger except for the cold."
“It’s not that I didn’t want to switch back, it’s that when I opened my eyes I saw that this world was not quite right, and I was worried that Sevier wouldn’t be able to accept it, so I didn’t let him come back.”
He was tied up by a group of people as soon as he arrived in this world.
They threw him into the dark basement.
The environment was hot and humid.
A suffocating stench.
There were also cockroaches, rats, and writhing insects crawling around.
After so many years of companionship, he had become accustomed to taking the blame for Sevilla whenever there was danger.
This subconscious choice was something even he couldn't resist.
later.
He saw Scarlett. She was desperately trying to save herself in the icy lake, calling out her own name.
that moment.
He really wants to replace Sevilla.
Let this body become a Tyrannosaurus.
Even just a few days would be fine.
Tyron was lost in thought.
A sudden surge of warmth washed over me from the cool, smooth surface behind me.
Scarlett came close, hugged his trembling waist, buried her face in the back of his neck, and said in a muffled voice, "Tyron, you look like a child who can't get candy and is hiding under the covers crying."
Tyronn's body was somewhat stiff.
The only problem was that his heart was beating frequently.
The "thump-thump" sound was particularly noticeable in the quiet night.
"I like Sevia because he is a very good person, sincere and kind, and has no bad intentions."
He was the first foothold she found in this world.
It made her feel that the world wasn't so scary, and that she wasn't all alone.
"If I were like him, would you like me?" Tyron asked tentatively, his voice stiff.
Scarlett calmly said, "Why should I be like him? Everyone has their own unique good qualities; you don't have to be similar to others to be good."
Scarlett.
Tyron turned to face Scarlett. "Will you like me too?"
Two pairs of eyes stared at each other in the silent darkness.
A bright light surged forth from within.
The deeper the night, the more frequently the atmosphere of silence stirs.
This time.
Scarlett's eyes didn't flinch; they were moist and misty, her thick eyelashes fluttering slightly like the wings of a butterfly in a rainforest. "Yes."
……
……
The night is like a shooting star, fleeting in an instant.
As dawn broke, all the chill that had lurked in the darkness vanished in an instant, and the bright sun hung high in the sky, its rays piercing through the thin mist and falling upon the colorful buildings.
A new day has begun.
Scarlett led everyone out.
Step out of the courtyard.
Neighbor Matthew quickly came to greet me with a fawning smile and a basket of fresh fruit in his hand.
He stopped Scarlett.
I had something to say.
Upon seeing that Scarlett was followed by more than a dozen men, he choked and couldn't utter a single word.
This is this.
so many people?
Mo Ting glanced at him, then reached out and pushed him aside, saying, "Don't block my way."
Brian glanced at the fruit in his basket. "For Scarlett?"
Matthew nodded.
Brian picked it up casually. "Thanks."
He took out a pear and tossed it to Tyron.
I took one for myself, wiped the skin clean, and took a bite.
"The pears are good."
He offered a compliment and walked on, ignoring Matthew.
So does everyone else.
Matthew stood at the gate of Scarlett's yard, watching them leave.
My hands are empty.
A slight bitterness appeared on his face.
Getting rich overnight really makes a difference.
In just two days, the beastman has taken so much.
such a pity.
My dad didn't give me a kind look, otherwise I could have gotten a different identity.
Matthew shook his head dejectedly.
He turned around and prepared to go home.
Suddenly, a tall figure appeared in the distance and walked straight toward him.
