Never Meeting Again In Our Next Life (Living Life Over) - Volume 2 (16)
Chapter 16 Breaking into the Night
?
Zhou Shuo pinched Du Lanze’s neck and before he could finish his question, the other party suddenly shrank and broke away from his hand easily.
Zhou Shuo was startled. His grappling techniques were rarely inaccurate, but the man in front of him had strange movements. He couldn’t see clearly how to break free.
While Zhou Shuo was about to step forward to catch him, Du Lanze stepped back, waving his hands and saying, “Hey, you said it well, why did you suddenly take action? If it weren’t for the fact that you are Xia Lin’s relatives, I would I’m too lazy to mind your own business.”
Zhou Shuo stopped his attack as expected. He remembered that when they first met, this person claimed to be Xia Lin’s friend. At that time, Xia Liang wanted to get news about Xia Lin from this person, so she had the patience to talk to him. Although Zhou Shuo didn’t say anything at that time, he basically had the same idea as Xia Liang, thinking that this person was probably sick.
However, during this conversation, he was a little shaken. After all, what happened to him in the past few days was too bizarre. If what this person said was true…
Zhou Shuo took a deep breath and said, “I’ll believe you for once. What exactly is the pheromone you mentioned? I hope you can explain it clearly.”
Xia Liang curled up and shivered in the darkness.
He thinks that his psychological quality is not too bad. Even if he has a relationship with the same sex while unconscious, as long as he is given enough time, he should be able to adjust his mentality quickly.
However, the fact is that since Zhou Shuo left, he has fallen into unreasonable panic and anxiety. This chaotic negative emotion is greater than the psychological impact he has suffered. He feels that this should not be his psychological problem, but There was something wrong with his body.
He endured the physical discomfort, went to the bathroom to clean his body, and then went to the kitchen to find some food that could barely fill his stomach, but he couldn’t eat any of it.
In the end, he had no choice but to return to the bedroom, where Zhou Shuo’s body remained, and the indescribable smell lingered on him. Although he didn’t like it, it unexpectedly allowed him to find a sense of security.
He didn’t dare to turn on the light or see the light, but he was also unreasonably afraid of darkness and loneliness. At this moment, all that flashed in his mind was Zhou Shuo’s shadow, and there was a voice lingering in his ears, telling him that he must find Zhou Shuo, and that he would be safest only by Zhou Shuo’s side.
On the one hand, he felt that such an idea was too ridiculous, and on the other hand, he couldn’t help imagining the scene of himself nestled in Zhou Shuo’s arms.
He felt like he might be having a schizophrenia.
After an unknown amount of time, the cell phone rang suddenly, and the caller ID showed Xia Lin’s number.
At this time, he could refuse to answer anyone’s call, but only this brother… He took a deep breath, then pressed the call button, trying to make his voice sound as flawless as possible.
”Xia Lin, it’s so late…”
”Brother, are you staying at home alone now?” Xia Liang was stunned: “Yes. What’s wrong?”
Xia Lin’s voice sounded a little hesitant, and there seemed to be Song Yan beside him. She muttered something to him, and then Xia Lin said: “Brother, I have a friend who may come over to see you later. Can you …Open the door?”
Xia Liang subconsciously wanted to refuse. At this time, he was extremely insecure. No one could get close to him except Zhou Shuo!
But he quickly regained his sense and said pleasantly: “Xiao Lin, it’s already midnight in China. Are you sure your friend wants to come over now? Shouldn’t normal people choose to visit during the day?”
”No, no, brother, listen to me,” Xia Lin’s voice sounded a little urgent, with a hint of something unspeakable. However, before he finished speaking, the doorbell of the house downstairs rang.
Xia Liang’s whole body’s nerves became tense instantly. He dropped his cell phone and ran downstairs at an extremely fast speed. He opened the surveillance screen on the arming controller and found a young man wearing a peaked cap standing outside the door. Under the lamp, his facial features were blurred, and he could not clearly see the identity of the person coming.
Xia Liang hesitated for a moment, but instead of opening the door, he locked all the doors and windows on the first floor.
But he still felt insecure, so he ran back to the second floor and planned to close the doors and windows on the second floor. However, when he pushed open his bedroom door, he found that the young man wearing a peaked cap had jumped out of the window that had been opened at some point. Come in.
Xia Liang suddenly felt angry that his privacy had been seriously violated. He stood at the door of the bedroom and said sternly: “I don’t care who you are, please get out immediately!”
The young man turned a deaf ear to his eviction order. His eyes fell on the cell phone on the bed that had not been hung up. Then he bent down to pick up the cell phone and said to the other end of the phone: “Okay, don’t…” Hey, your brother didn’t listen to you at all… Fortunately, I was smart and knew he wouldn’t open the door easily, so I climbed directly through the window… Don’t worry, I will have a good talk with your brother patiently. , OK, OK, I’m hanging up.”
Then, he hung up the phone and threw the phone back on the bed.
”…” Xia Liang looked at him and didn’t know how to react.
The young man looked around and muttered: “It’s too dark, can you turn on a light?” As he said this, he walked to the wall and groped for the switch.
Xia Liang said hastily: “Don’t turn on the light!”
”Okay, okay, I won’t turn on the light.” The other party raised his hands in cooperation and slowly moved towards Xia Liang’s direction, “Then let’s just chat in the dark, okay?”
After listening to the conversation he had just had with Xia Lin, Xia Liang was basically certain that this person was the friend Xia Lin mentioned. He slightly let go of his hostility, but still couldn’t let go of his wariness. He looked at the other person warily: “Who are you? Why did you break into my house in the middle of the night?”
”We have met before.” The other party took off his peaked cap, put his face in front of Xia Liang, and tilted his head, “My name is Du Lanze. A few months ago you suggested that I take medicine. Remember ?”
Through the blurry moonlight outside the window, Xia Liang could barely see the other person’s facial features clearly, and then vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a person.
”You are the……”
”Du Lanze.” The young man snapped his fingers happily, “Mr. Xia has a good memory.”
Xia Liang twitched his lips. He had been involved in the management of the family business since he was young. He had been at the negotiating table for more than ten years. He would never forget anyone he met and reported his name to. This person was named Du Lanze. The guy talked nonsense in front of him a few months ago. Although he didn’t take it too seriously afterwards, as soon as he saw this face, he automatically retrieved this person’s name from his memory bank.
At this time, Du Lanze sat down on the sofa very familiarly and greeted Xia Liang as a guest: “Come on, Mr. Xia, don’t be too formal. Let’s sit down and talk openly.”
