Rise Of Void Dragons - Chapter 33

Seeing his friends still not saying anything, and just looking at him in a daze, Wang Ming stood up and turned back to return to his bed, thinking they didn’t want him here.

“Brother Ming, wait.” Duan Fa recovered earlier than his friends and stopped Wang Ming.

Wang Ming stopped, turned back, and gave a faint smile.

Zhu Feng and Zhang Wei, who just recovered from the previous shock due to Duan Fa’s shout were shocked again after this smile.

“Let’s drink then.” Wang Ming put his hand over Duan Fa’s shoulders and gestured towards the beer bottles.

“Hmm” Still shocked, Duan Fa agreed, and then the drinking session of the friends started.

Although no one talked after that, drinking with everyone present at one place was already a miracle for them.

Throughout the session, each one of the three roommates of Wang Ming was peeking at his face. And, after seeing the continually changing expressions on his face, they started to think deeply.

After getting as drunk as dead, Wang Ming returned to his bed and slept silently.

“There was something wrong with him,” Zhu Feng said again.

“But what? Even I know that something is wrong.” Zhang Wei stroked his chin, thinking deeply about the weird behavior of Wang Ming.

“It can’t be he’s going to suicide tomorrow? And today was a goodbye party.” Zhu Feng spoke out his deduction, and his body shuddered.

“We can’t let him do this. Then, don’t let him run away from our sight tomorrow.” Zhang Wei’s thoughts also steered in the same direction upon listening to Zhu Feng.

This was most likely to be true from their point of view.

Smack.

At this time, their heads were smacked heavily from behind.

They groaned in pain and turned back to see Duan Fa looking back at them. They got agitated, “You you why did you hit us?”

Duan Fa retraced back his hands and kept them in his pockets, “Can’t you two think something positive? Why do you always think negatively?”

“We.. We..” Zhang Wei’s voice trembled, knowing that they were definitely wrong. They also didn’t want to think like this but Wang Ming’s behaviour was really suspicious.

“So what’s the cause of his weird behaviour according to you?” Zhu Feng diverted the attention from them and asked back.

So what if we were wrong? You shouldn’t have hit me. Now, tell me what’s your conclusion on this behavior of him? Aren’t you smart?

“My conclusion? I also have a conclusion and that’s most likely to be true.” Duan Fa said and smiled mysteriously.

“Then tell us. Why aren’t you telling us if it’s the correct reason?”

“I think Our plan succeeded and that’s the only valid reason that can explain everything.” Duan Fa gave off a proud smile as he spoke.

“Our plan?” Both Zhang Wei and Zhu Feng struggled thinking before wisdom struck their drunk minds, “Y..You mean the plan from today’s morning?”

“Hmm” Duan Fa nodded his head and agreed.

“How can you be so sure?” Zhu Feng, though drunk, didn’t believed this easily and asked.

“Have you forgotten what we saw in the morning?”

“What we saw in the morning?… We saw Brother Ming fainted in the ground, Qiao Qinling waving at us and Lin Fang helping Brother Ming by giving him first aid.” Zhu Feng slowly recounted the happening from today’s morning and pondered for a while, before something struck him suddenly, “Wait, you mean Brother Ming was aware of everything happening to him and his heart melted down?”

Smack

Another smack from behind, but this time, it wasn’t Duan Fa. Zhang Wei hit him this time.

“Are you so drunk that you can’t even guess something this easy? Brother Ming was in slumber thoroughly. How can he be aware of everything happening? It must be that Brother Ming met them before fainting or atleast saw them. And his heart must have moved by their beauty, before fainting. And now he’s trying to restart his life.” Zhang Wei explained haughtily, feeling proud of his wits.

Smack

But at last he was smacked hard on his head too.

Duan Fa shook his head, “I should not let you two drunks analyse things. Do you think that Brother Ming can be moved just by one meeting? If it was that easy, he would have changed his mind months ago. Don’t forget that Lin Fang and Qiao Qinling are his classmates in arts class.”

Zhu Feng’s and Zhang Wei’s faces reddened in shame and due to alcohol.

“Let me analyse it for you people. Today he must have witnessed something deep. I am sure that his heart has still not moved. But, something might have happened that made him rethink his previous behavior. And that was also most likely to be the cause of his sudden fainting. In short, this has something to do with what happened in the morning or else what can happen in the boring office? So we must continue with our plan for a few more days and verify our observations.”

Listening to his words that made sense, Zhu Feng and Zhang Wei nodded their heads.

Little did they know that the proclaimed boring office was the real game-changer.
