Double Moon - Chapter 27

In the room, just as we were enjoying our drinks, Nuan Mei suggested something absurd. “Mey, can you sing a duet with Chi An?”

“No! I don’t think that is a good idea,” I answered.

“Why not. Chi An, don’t you think is a great idea?” Nuan Mei stood up and stared straight into the eyes of Chi An.

“I will just go ahead.” He said unwillingly. Of course, it was easier to see that the demon had trapped Chi An somehow.

At this point, I reflected on the scene that happened as we went to buy the beer.

In an isolated road, Nuan Mei and I walked at a steady pace as we discussed. Our target was the vending machine that was about five meters closer to us. Nevertheless, as we were walking forward, the leaves of trees shook. Nuan Mei turned toward the Bush with fear.

“Mey! Tell me nobody wants to kidnap me? After all, I am not important at all, right?” she smiled bitterly.

Actually, before now, I have noticed those cold eyes staring at us. ‘They have begun to monitor my movement. I have a terrible hunch about this,’ I thought to myself. I began to think. Perhaps, they wanted to make it noticeable to me. ‘The first one is to let me know that they have noticed me, and the other is for people around me to be scared. Nonetheless, that can’t be all, right?’

“It is probably your imagination,” I retorted. This is the only thing I can say for now. I don’t want to create unnecessary suspense for Nuan Mei.

We got to the vending machine and got the number of beers that we wanted. We came back without much trouble. However, I wonder what all that meant.

Inside the room, Chi An pulled me up with a strange expression as if he was saying that “if Nuan Mei bites his life after now because we did not cooperate, you are to blame.” ‘How is this possible that he is scared of Nuan Mei like that?’

I got up, trying to maintain my calm. I understood we shouldn’t be doing this under this circumstance. We were already under the premise that things were not simple. However, to relieve tension and enjoy one’s life, it seems that Nuan Mei was suggesting that we must do it even in these dangerous times.

“Then what kind of song can we sing?” I curiously asked.

“Anything is fine. Most especially, anything common to both of you.” Nuan Mei whispered. It seemed she had not left any advantage for us. If we happened to sing a song, it must mean there was a song that we both had sung together. Can’t this evil star not bully us?

“By the way, Nuan Mei, when are you getting yourself a boyfriend?” I asked lightly.

“Hehehe! Mey really wants to bully me. That won’t be good. I am your junior sister, after all.” She smiled wickedly.

After a while, we sang. I could not believe that Chi An was endless. His voice was gratifying and cool. ‘I think my height in the love scale might have towered to heaven.’

Subsequently, Nuan Mei requested that we dare ourselves, only using truth-dare. Whoever does not feel like saying the truth must drink. In the end, she was damn drunk before the game could end. Though she told the truth. I countered her, saying it was a lie. I used it to bully her back, nonetheless. She lay on Chi An’s bed peacefully.

“We were followed when we went to get these drinks,” I whispered to Chi An as he put his hands on his jaw, listening calmly. ‘It seemed he had started to contemplate solutions. Still, I wonder if that solution can be used.’

….

In a tidied room, the décor was significantly excellent as it was not complicated. There were soft and fluffy sofas and wallpaper designs. In general, the room was cozy with a warm smell.

Two females waited on the sofa as another female walked into the room. The person that walked into the room was Secretary Huan Bik. However, something had fundamentally changed. Her appearance was cold as ice, and the will to kill was puffing like smoke.

Ling Xue! The First Lady that sat north of the room had a meek and pure aura around her. Her short hair was blessed with a unique wave. Her smile was spiritual and genuine, slightly pointing out her nose.

Shu Yan was the second lady that sat south of Ling Xue. Her expression was horrible and irritated even without any prior problem. In fact, it could be that coming out here was already irritating to her. She had a pixie style of hair with long tails.

Just as Huan Bik came to view appropriately, Ling Xue stood and bowed with an unchangeable smile. However, on the contrary, Shu Yan snorted with irritation.

“Hey, Huan Bik! Why did you bring me here? Not to talk of keeping me waiting. Aren’t you overestimating yourself?” she bickered.

“Relax, Shu Yan, you are always serious over something trivial and quit being irritated. This is a job that only you can do.” Huan Bik answered with slight teasing. Nevertheless, her cold and killing face did not change for once.

“What is it?” Ling Xue smiled wonderfully. It was almost like she was harmless.

“A romantic life, I presume?” Huan Bik answered but was retorted instantly

“What the hell are you presuming. You better start giving this order that you know how to do best.” Shu Yan was even angrier.

“My my! You never learn, do you?” Huan Bik showed her devilish aura yet again. However, Shu Yan never retreated even once.

Eyes shot like bullets. It was as though they were competing for space or territory.

“Do you remember that the police leader? He came to work in the murder case that was related to the school.”

“So what it is?” Shu Yan was even more irritated. However, Huan Bik recounted the encounter with the Commander. Although she deleted the part of the content that had to do with her.

“Huh?” Shu Yan was infuriated from hearing the content.
