The two called out Chu Zihang in unison, and then Xia Mi glared at Lu Mingfei with her bright eyes. Lu Mingfei, not to be outdone, retorted with a wicked dead fish eye.
"We're going to Chinatown for dinner, do you want to come?" Old Tang tried to smooth things over.
In the mission he just completed, he used his powerful authority to kill those powerful hybrids, which exhausted him greatly. All he wanted to do was eat his fill and sleep.
“Okay, when shall we go?” Lu Mingfei also wanted to try the changed food and glanced at Xia Mi.
"are you going?"
"You guys go ahead, we're going swimming... I've been busy with the 'investigation' all day, I'm all sweaty, I'll take a shower first," Xia Mi said as she went back to her room.
"Let's go, Lao Tang, let's go downstairs and wait, don't disturb them."
Lu Mingfei and Lao Tang took the elevator downstairs, leaving Chu Zihang and Xia Mi walking back to her room.
Xia Mi closed the door, then opened it again, returning the coat she was wearing to Chu Zihang.
The slight sweat stains on the collar seemed to be from the argument with Lu Mingfei earlier, and they seemed to have a faint fragrance when held in the hand.
He gazed at Xia Mi's retreating figure, lost in deep memories.
In an instant, it was as if a mirror had been shattered, or as if spring water had gushed forth from the parched earth, and memories were gradually returning.
The places I couldn't remember gradually became associated with a girl. She was slender and very lively. Gradually, her features became more defined, and she had a near-perfect face. She cheered him on while he played basketball, strolled through the aquarium, watched movies in the cinema, and tutored him at the table by the window.
He remembered who the girl who had disappeared from his memory was, who the girl who had accompanied him was, and who the girl who had pursued him was.
“Xia Mi”.
Chu Zihang gripped his coat tightly and said softly.
"What's wrong, Senior Brother?" Xia Mi turned around lightly with her hands behind her back, looking at Chu Zihang with curiosity.
Chu Zihang's lips moved, but after a long while, he finally managed to utter a single sentence: "I remembered you."
Xia Mi's bright eyes narrowed instantly, and her body involuntarily leaned back.
You remembered me? Could it be that you've remembered everything from before? Wouldn't it be awkward if I pretended not to know you before, then got to know you again, and asked if you had any girls pursuing you?
"This... haha... senior brother..." Xia Mi became somewhat incoherent, her cheeks quickly turning red.
Before Chu Zihang could see her, she turned her back, took a few deep breaths, and then tried to keep her tone calm.
"I'm going to take a shower first." She needed to rinse off with cold water; her body temperature was starting to rise.
"Mm." Chu Zihang responded calmly until Xia Mi closed the door and disappeared from his sight, then reluctantly went to the elevator.
Xia Mi hastily took off her clothes and walked barefoot into the bathroom. Her heart was pounding wildly, and her hand instinctively turned on the hot water.
She felt her mind go blank.
It wasn't until the bathroom was filled with steam that she came to her senses and wiped away the tiny water droplets from the mirror.
"Xia Mi, you've been exposed! What do we do?" She grabbed a handful of her hair haphazardly, looking quite worried.
Or should I just run away? No, no, that would attract Lu Mingfei's attention. Lu Mingfei probably doesn't know my identity right now, and knowing his character, he'd love to kill me to vent his anger. If I'm exposed, Lu Mingfei will have even more reason to pursue me.
How can I face Chu Zihang if I stay here?
Xia Mi was filled with thoughts, and finally decided to take a shower first to wash away the sweat.
After washing, use the power of the Wind King's Eye to dry your hair.
Standing in front of the mirror, I looked at my perfect face.
With her stunning looks, she could easily get away with any excuse; a cute lie can be forgiven.
She has already come up with a solution.
Suddenly I realized that I looked a little different in the mirror.
Like her face, she pinched her cheeks with her hands, puffed them out, and then exhaled. She did the same thing in the mirror.
Looking down, you can still see her toes. She sighed, squeezed herself together, and tried to make herself look bigger.
She noticed that she looked bigger in the mirror. She looked down at herself, then looked back and realized that the other person hadn't actually squeezed her; she was simply bigger.
Xia Mi instantly realized what was going on and questioned:
"Who are you!"
Chapter 244 Abducting Chu Zihang
"Is Senior Brother still waiting for Xia Mi?"
Seeing that Chu Zihang and the other person were late in arriving, Lu Mingfei and Lao Tang had no choice but to have their meal first.
The dishes, made with local specialties and seasonings, had a unique flavor that the two found very novel.
So Old Tang ate until his face was shiny with oil, and slowly walked back with a full belly.
The two walked to the door and found Chu Zihang waiting there, like a statue waiting for his wife.
"Ah."
"You two go eat by yourselves. We've already finished eating. We'll rest for a day or two, submit the mission to Colton, and then we can go back. If you want to go on a date, hurry up." Lu Mingfei gave Chu Zihang a knowing look.
Chu Zihang didn't respond to Lu Mingfei's gaze for a long time, instead appearing deep in thought. Just as Lu Mingfei was about to enter the hotel, Chu Zihang called out to him.
He turned his gaze to Lu Mingfei, and spoke expressionlessly, looking very solemn and serious, "Lu Mingfei, what does it feel like to like someone?"
Lu Mingfei was stumped by Chu Zihang's question. Should he give a more rational or emotional explanation?
He hesitated for a long time before saying, "I can't really explain it, but I feel like she's perfect in every way, like a perfect goddess, even... even her farts smell sweet." He was a little embarrassed to say the last sentence, but he still gritted his teeth and said it.
"..." Old Tang looked at Lu Mingfei with some disdain. He was a little afraid to imagine what kind of state this guy was in normally.
Lu Mingfei let out a soft breath and continued, "I just want to be with the other person all the time, I wish we could be together every day, I never get tired of it..."
Chu Zihang understood.
Lu Mingfei and Lao Tang had already gone far away, leaving only Chu Zihang behind. Even amidst the surging crowds and the coming and going of cars, he remained in the same spot.
The elevator inside the hotel on the other side went up.
Lu Mingfei encountered Xia Mi at the door, who had a warm smile on her face and curious eyes. Her dress seemed to fit her better now, clinging to her curves. Her curious gaze concealed her youthful smugness, and even the restraint she had shown when meeting Lao Tang was gone.
He sensed that Xia Mi seemed somewhat different.
But I can't put it into words.
"What? Do you want to steal what others like and do what Cao Cao did?" Old Tang glanced at Lu Mingfei, who was staring intently at Xia Mi.
"Lu Mingfei, what kind of look is that? Believe me or not, I'll sue you for harassment and call in an army to crush you!" Xia Mi felt very uncomfortable being stared at by Lu Mingfei.
"Nothing, I just felt you seemed very happy, and you looked a little better than before, I think, so I couldn't help but take another look." Lu Mingfei casually made up an excuse.
Xia Mi's lips curled into a smile, her head slightly raised, and she said smugly, "Hmph! Of course I'm happy to be cleaned of all this filth, and of course I'm prettier than I was a second ago. Besides, I'm the cutest and prettiest girl in the world. It's your honor to be with me. Also, don't you know there's a 'magic potion' that can make girls even more beautiful?"
While talking to Lu Mingfei, she curiously looked at Lu Mingfei and Lao Tang, then blurted out "Don't bother me," and left as she entered the elevator.
Lu Mingfei had a feeling that Xia Mi seemed more confident than before, even to the point of being somewhat complacent, and also a little...
"What are you thinking about again?" Old Tang noticed that Lu Mingfei had been acting strangely ever since he met Xia Mi. He was about to tease Meng Dezhi when Lu Mingfei interrupted him with his next words.
"Don't you think Xia Mi is acting a little strange?"
Old Tang spread his hands, indicating that he was blind: "I can sense that something is wrong. How is it different from before?"
"Her personality has changed a bit, and her breasts seem to have gotten a little bigger."
"What strange things are you focusing on? And aren't girls' personalities supposed to be unpredictable?" Old Tang's most frequent contact was with Nuwa, who occasionally came to supervise the construction. Nuwa often looked down at him with disdain, and he would sometimes see Nuwa acting crazy, so he didn't understand girls.
"She's your sister, and you don't even care about that?"
"......!?" Old Tang's eyes widened instantly, a chill running down his spine, as if a block of ice had been suddenly placed on his back in the dead of winter, chilling him to the bone.
He was so shocked by the sudden news that he almost lost his footing. His communication with Norton was very secretive, and it could be said that no one else knew about it except the two of them.
How did Lu Mingfei find out? But that's not important.
He quickly calmed down; Lu Mingfei was increasingly fond of startling people with his dramatic gestures.
Because he saw the smug smile on the other person's face, a smile of a petty person who had succeeded in their evil scheme.
"How would I know! Besides, she's not my biological sister. The Dragon Clan is a mess. It's not like you can kill me just because you don't like me, or I can kill you just because I don't like you. They start fighting over the slightest disagreement, like a bunch of delusional lunatics. I must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to get into this mess!"
Old Tang was indignant and dissatisfied. By the end, he was even gritting his teeth, almost squeezing the words out from between his teeth.
"And you? What's wrong with you? If you're so awesome, why don't you even have any bloodline?" After complaining about his bad luck, Old Tang quickly turned his attention to Lu Mingfei.
Lu Mingfei seemed indifferent. "Would you believe me if I said I was the reincarnation of the Black King?"
"Keep bragging! You think you can be my biology dad? Keep dreaming!" Old Tang stood in front of his door, turned to look at Lu Mingfei, and said, "Don't bother me. I'm going to pray to the God of Literature, Einstein, Da Vinci... I hope I can handle that guy's exam next."
Then the door slammed shut with a loud "bang".
Lu Mingfei went to the window and looked down at Xia Mi, who had just walked out of the hotel and was heading towards Chu Zihang.
"Senior brother, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Let's go. I've wanted to try the food in Chinatown for a long time, to see if it's the same as the food back home." Xia Mi said, taking Chu Zihang's arm.
The unexpected contact startled Chu Zihang, but he was eventually pulled away by Xia Mi.
A cheerful girl led a boy with slightly stiff steps, running under rows of streetlights. Their shadows, illuminated by the streetlights, grew longer and shorter, more and more solid and more blurry, until they disappeared at the end of the streetlights and into the gradually darkening night.
Standing by the suite window, Lu Mingfei frowned slightly as he opened Sadako's spirit storage bottle, which was hidden in a secluded spot.
A cool, gust of wind blew slowly and steadily into Xia Mi's room.
Lu Mingfei sat on the dark sofa in the living room, letting the shadows envelop his upper body. He looked out at the starry sky and then at the direction where Chu Zihang and Xia Mi had disappeared.
The cold, chilly breeze returned.
Lu Mingfei's eyebrows were almost furrowed together. While a locked-room murder might leave some clues, the fight between the girls was far more ruthless—grabbing hair, scratching cheeks, pinching...
Not to mention the dragons, who possess even greater power.
Why is there not a trace at all?
This is how the same thing?
She offered no resistance? Or was she simply too weak to resist?
"Go and keep an eye on them."
A cold, chilly breeze, under Lu Mingfei's command, pierced through the glass and headed straight for the direction Chu Zihang had left.
