ALL NOVEL
Chapter 49
The door of the empty classroom was suddenly closed.
Only two people were left facing each other in the classroom.
"What do you want to add?" Yan Xi opened his mouth.
"Sit up there."
Zhou Zhou pointed to an empty desk and said.
【Ah this.....what kind of request is this?】 Pandora was also puzzled.
"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid I'll eat you up?" Seeing Yan Xi hesitate to cooperate, Zhou Zhou spoke up.
Yan Xi laughed. He's very strange today.
Yan Xi didn't say anything, just lightly propped himself up and sat neatly on the desk.
Zhou Zhou walked over. Although Yan Xi was sitting on the desk, he still wasn't as tall as him.
She felt a little uncomfortable with this oppressive feeling. She really hated it.
He suddenly grabbed her ankle.
"You'd better have something to say." The girl frowned.
Her fair and delicate ankle was held in the boy's hand, the contrast between her wheat colored skin and his cold white complexion vividly apparent. Zhou Zhou thought again of that video, her collarbone seemed to be the same shade as well.
Zhou Zhou froze for a moment.
"If you have nothing to say, I'll consider this sexual harassment."
Endless, isn't it?
Grabbing someone else's ankle and staring intensely, are there really that many perverts these days?
"I sexually harassed you? You...." Zhou Zhou reflexively argued, but suddenly remembered what had happened that morning, and swallowed back the second half of the sentence "You wish".
"Why so quiet all of a sudden?"
Zhou Zhou didn't dare look Yan Xi in the eye for a moment.
"If there's nothing, I'm leaving." Yan Xi wanted to pull his leg back.
"Who said you could leave!"
Her defiant attitude seemed to reflexively provoke Zhou Zhou's actions, her ankle was forcibly held down again, and Yan Xi was immobilized for the time being.
"There's nothing much, I just felt it was unfair, so adding a prop makes it more interesting to play, what, are you afraid now?" Zhou Zhou seemed to have regained his irritating attitude towards Yan Xi.
Zhou Zhou cut to the chase without further nonsense.
"It took me a whole afternoon yesterday to have this custom made."
Suddenly there was an icy feeling around his ankle, and a pure silver chain was tied around it.
"What is this?" Yan Xi tried to struggle.
"Don't move, there's a tracker in it, it reports the coordinates every 15 minutes, showing your general location within a 200 meter radius."
"We'll follow the rules you set last time, but you have to be there by 8 pm at the latest, I'll be there at 8:30 pm sharp."
"It's more interesting to play this way." Zhou Zhou smiled wickedly. Having experienced the last two bets, he was more careful with the details this time.
【This kind of thing? This kind of thing is just as exciting in other games too.】 Pandora seemed to associate it with something.
Tied up before we've even started?
"Has your mom never told you you're a pervert?" Yan Xi looked up at him, her beautiful face full of mockery.
"I'm probably only this perverted towards you, little mermaid."
Zhou Zhou was provoked by her gaze and subconsciously retorted.
She's pretty good at pretending isn't she? How come she doesn't pretend at all in front of him? The things she says can piss a person off.
Her? A mermaid?
Hmph.....
Yan Xi grabbed the chain and found it completely unremovable, tightly clasped.
"I've clasped it closed, after the game ends I'll unlock it for you."
"How do I know your locator isn't cheating."
Zhou Zhou took out a phone that wasn't his, opened up a map screen and handed it to her.
"This is all I can see."
The location shown was Building B of the teaching building. Indeed there was no specific location, just a 15 minute countdown in the upper right corner.
【No cheating, the data from this chain's locator will only transmit one-way to this phone, I've scanned it.】 Pandora told her.
Having received a definite answer, Yan Xi didn't want to quibble further.
"I'm taking this phone with me. I'll get to the location early that night, leave it somewhere, then notify you where to pick it up."
She certainly didn't want her whereabouts monitored these next few days.
"Anything else to add, Zhou Zhou?"
Zhou Zhou didn't speak.
"Move aside."
Yan Xi directly lifted her leg and kicked his school uniform, not too lightly or heavily, seemingly just horsing around in a way that wouldn't make one angry, yet still neatly creating distance between them.
Not giving him time to react, Yan Xi jumped down from the desk and left the empty classroom.
Wretched dog, now even bites people.
Zhou Zhou stared at the silver chain around Yan Xi's ankle as she left, also looking at the shoeprint imprinted on his uniform after her kick, not knowing what he was thinking.
On the night of the Christmas party.
"What do you plan to do? It's already 6 pm." Qi Yili asked her.
"Hmm....good question."
She told Qi Yili about the betting agreement between her and Zhou Zhou, and told him about the rules for the third round.
Qi Yili looked at Yan Xi lying on the sofa at home, only wearing one sock, her left foot tied with that silver chain, clothes strewn all around her.
Qi Yili helplessly picked them up for her one by one.
Yan Xi seemed to have just woken up and also seemed to have just begun to drift off to sleep.
"You've got it figured out." Qi Yili stated matter-of-factly rather than questioning.
From Qi Yili's recent observations of her, she must have made preparations.
"You really do understand me, little brother."
"Ji Yao said she took several days off. She's probably not coming to this Christmas party." Qi Yili suddenly spoke up, telling Yan Xi what she had asked him to find out the other day.
"Okay, I'm going to change now."
Hearing this, Yan Xi simply responded and immediately turned to go into the dressing room.
No one knew how much time had passed when Yan Xi finally emerged from the dressing room.
"Do I look good in this outfit?" Yan Xi smiled at Qi Yili.
Qi Yili's pupils contracted. So this was her plan?
"Do you need my help?"
He was asking about the bet.
"No need, just enjoy yourself at this Christmas party."
"I won't lose."
After all, losing means I have to do a striptease dance.....
She picked up the prepared mask and affixed it to her face.
In the mirror stood a "boy" with fair skin and a tall, slender figure, bits of his short cut hair falling onto the mask, casting shadows.
The totem mask on his face was in stark contrast, contorted to the extreme like a vicious dog, bizarre yet carrying a sense of Eastern horror.
This mask was more like her former skin.
With that beautiful face covered up, for a fleeting moment the girl looked at herself and suddenly said.
"You really are becoming more and more like him."
There was an indescribable emotion in her tone, clearly not lighthearted.
She fell silent for a long while, touching her own face.
Only to feel the uneven, icy cold texture of the mask.
【Lu Manman, it's almost 7 pm.】 Pandora spoke up untimely.
Yan Xi came to her senses, her face filling up with smiles again, as if by habit.
【I know.】
Yan Xi lowered her voice, the girl's voice becoming closer to a young man's.
"The game is about to start."
