"..?"
His expression slowly stiffened, his eyes revealing a great deal of confusion, like the look a fully accomplished god-king in the beginning of a classic rebirth fantasy novel would have when betrayed by his wife and brothers.
That gaze was cast upon Zhong Hongyu.
Zhong Hongyu, you schemed against me...
Ying Qin Guan felt his stomach churning violently. It was unbelievable; even the world's fastest-acting poison wouldn't take effect so quickly after ingestion. But A He had done it, which was expected—it had always been her ability. What concerned Ying Qin Guan wasn't this matter, but Zhong Hongyu.
You schemed against me...
Although he wanted to say it aloud, Ying Qin Guan could sense that Zhong Hongyu didn't have such thoughts. She wasn't a Nephalem or a Divine Heart; he wouldn't be surprised if those two were in danger and would risk everything to drag him down with them, but Zhong Hongyu wouldn't do that. Besides, she couldn't hold out for that long. So, what was the reason...?
Ying Qin Guan didn't know the answer, and he didn't have time to find it.
He moved slowly, placing the lobster on the table to the side, then placed his right hand on Zhong Hongyu's shoulder, his voice heavy.
“Hongyu... did you hold on, or did you not feel anything at all? Either way... it’s amazing.”
He left, his figure forlorn.
【"This is..?!"】
Shen Xin was puzzled, or rather, incredulous. Zhong Hongyu was clearly unharmed, so why did Ying Qin Guan react this way?
"Really? I don't believe it!"
Nephalem, stubborn as ever, judged Ying Qin Guan by his own petty standards, suspecting that Ying Qin Guan was just putting on an act, and immediately ate a piece of lobster meat.
He appeared brave at this moment, but he was nothing more than a reckless fool; Shen Xin possessed immense courage as well. However, upon deeper reflection, he realized that Ying Qin Guan had no reason to do this. If there were truly no problem, he could have simply finished his meal; why stay behind?
Nephalem ate several pieces of lobster meat, his expression remaining completely unchanged.
"Look, I don't know what that guy is up to."
Nephalem shrugged, a smug look on his face revealing that he had seen through Ying Qin's treacherous scheme.
The next moment... Shen Xin, Yu Xietian, and Jiu Yi suddenly pounced out!
To escape from Ah He's clutches, even Ying Qin Guan and his men dared to attack, let alone a mere Nephalem!
Nephalem was caught off guard and the three of them stole the lobster.
"Successful!"
"It's mine!"
"We survived!"
The three of them each received a piece of lobster meat.
Ahe was baffled, not understanding why these people were reacting this way, and said, "Why are you all fighting over it? If you like it, I can make another one."
"No, no!" Jiu Yi and Yu Xietian hurriedly said, "We've already eaten a lot, this one piece is enough to fill us up!"
As he spoke, he quickly took a bite.
".."
".."
The two slowly raised their heads and looked at Nefertari with the same eyes that Ying Qin Guan had used to look at Zhong Hongyu.
The Nephalem's green had long since turned green, and it was now slouching with its top-notch pigeon-toed stance, its buttocks sticking out, and cold sweat streaming down its face, completely unlike its previous calm and composure.
Clearly, he had already fallen for the trap and had been holding on with tremendous willpower until now. All of this was a pretense to lure these people into the trap.
He grinned maliciously, "I don't want to experience the loneliness on the road to the underworld like that guy did."
"Nephalem...you tricked me!"
"You...I...you...!..."

Beach Vacation Part 7
Ying Qin Pass/Nai Fei Tian/Jiu Yi/Yu Xie Tian.
Seven Stars F4 boy band, the toilet is a wonderful four-row room.
Perhaps because Ahe didn't finish the entire cooking process, all four of them had time to go to the restroom, which was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.
The atmosphere in the arena was quite terrifying, as Yu Xietian and Jiu Yi were denouncing the Nephalem. Unfortunately, both of them were honest and cultured people, and their outbursts were rather weak. If it were Shenxin instead, none of them could be saved from the Nephalem genealogy... No, if it were Shenxin, he might be even more powerless, since he was mute.
"Poor and weak!"
Nephalem broke out in a cold sweat. Although he had reached the toilet, Ah He's poisonous power still made his legs feel weak.
"No matter how impotently furious you are, it won't change the fact that you were fooled by me like idiots!"
"Use your pig brains to think about how Ying Qin Guan's face changed after taking that one bite. I just suppressed it, and you actually believed it! Naive! Even the leading ladies in 8 PM dramas aren't as easily fooled as you!"
"What did you say! You bastard!"
Jiu Yi and Nephalem were furious. Not only had they been tricked by Nephalem, but they were also mocked by him. No one could bear it.
"...Before you two start arguing, I have something to say."
Ying Qin Guan's voice echoed softly. He was at the very back of the restroom, a very strange position. Normally, if Ah He had poisoned him, he should have gone straight to the nearest toilet upon entering, but Ying Qin Guan had chosen the furthest one.
He said in a low voice, "Nephalem, you have experience. Can you guess why I'm in the innermost toilet, but not the one closest to the door?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xietian and Jiu Yi were also puzzled. Indeed, why was Ying Qin imprisoned over there? Everyone knew how long and agonizing the process was, even though they had managed to reach the toilet. Under such circumstances, why abandon the nearest toilet and choose the furthest one…
"Could it be..."
Nephalem, who had been arrogantly mocking him, now became subdued. He slowly reached out and opened the tissue box hanging on the wall.
It was completely empty inside.
"No paper!"
"I don't have any either!"
Unlike Ying Qin Guan and Nefertari, Jiu Yi and Yu Xie Tian had not seen much of the world, and they were flustered at this moment.
“Because I’ve encountered something like this before, I’m being extra cautious…” Ying Qin Guan said calmly, “So this time, before I went to the toilet, I checked in advance to see if there was any toilet paper… and after going through three stalls, there wasn’t any at all.”
Silence fell over the room. There were only four stalls in the restroom, and Ying Qin Guan's was the last one. It was a public restroom, and if you wanted to buy or get toilet paper, you would probably have to go several kilometers away.
"Then...do you have any paper?"
Honest Xiaoyu spoke up, full of anticipation.
"I don't know, I haven't checked yet," Ying Qin Guan replied in a low voice. "When I came to the fourth cubicle, I didn't check if there was any paper inside. Because whether there was or not, squatting down would be my only option. I originally thought that it was impossible for the four of you to get infected at the same time... but I didn't expect that you would actually get infected at the same time."
Upon hearing this, Jiu Yi and Yu Xietian gave Nephalem another bland greeting—though it was a bit more forceful than before, clearly indicating that they were now also anxious.
Nephalem ignored him and said in a deep voice, "Ying Qin Guan, this is no joke. We've taken over this beach. Although men from other beaches will come, when will that be? And they might not even be willing to buy us toilet paper... Without toilet paper, our lives are over."
“Ah...I know.” Ying Qin Guan paused, then spoke in a low voice.
"Then, I'm going to open it... my last hope."
A crisp sound rang out; it was the sound of the toilet paper box hitting the wall. Ying Qin Guan opened the toilet paper box.
Then, he slowly began to speak.
"One good news, one bad news."
"...Let's agree on this first."
Toilet paper, yes.
This news was like a shot in the arm, and everyone cheered up immediately. Only Nephalem remained pessimistic. He asked in a low voice, "What about the bad news?"
The sound of toilet paper being rubbed could be heard.
After wiping himself clean, Ying Qin Guan pulled up his pants and said arrogantly, "It's gone now."
".."
".."
".."
The three of them felt as if they had been hit by Garen's Q from the bushes. They were a little numb, and Nefertari's veins were bulging. He spoke up subconsciously.
"You he..."
"Ok?"
".."
Nefertari swallowed his words, realizing that the lives of the three of them were entirely in Ying Qin Guan's hands.
"One person has enough toilet paper... Ying Qin Guan, help us buy some toilet paper."
Having narrowly escaped death, Ying Qin was in good spirits and laughed, "No problem, just wait here for a while."
The three of them immediately felt relieved.
They were too complacent.
-
Ying Qin Guan went outside, washed his hands, and on the way, he glanced at the women's restroom and a strange thought popped into his head.
["If I can't find toilet paper outside and these three people inside are squatting so hard their legs are about to give way and they're almost falling into the toilet and drowning, would it be considered an emergency evasive maneuver if I went into the women's restroom to look for toilet paper?"]
He left the public restroom, walked for a while, and returned to the beach. At this time, only Zhong Hongyu and Ahe remained. After talking for a while, he learned that Luo Shui, who couldn't control her mouth, Cao Cailan, who didn't know that there was something wrong with Ahe's cooking, and Ruoye, who was forced to taste some lobster, had all gone to the restroom.
"It seems like everyone has food poisoning... What did they eat?"
"have no idea.."
Ahe and Zhong Hongyu ate their lobsters calmly, unaware that there was something wrong with the lobsters in their hands—because they were eating them themselves.
Seeing this, Ying Qin's disbelief resurfaced. Damn it, if Ahe can eat it, and Hongyu can eat it, why can't I?!
But when the time came, he chickened out and in the end just asked Ahe for directions to the nearest convenience store before setting off again.
