Shen Run is an office drone.
Fresh out of college, she joined an outsourcing company, working like a beast of burden: two days off a month, phone on 24/7, delayed wages a common occurrence, a...

Sister Chen is an old social worker in the family compound. She has dealt with Shen Run several times. Seeing that the girl is fair, pretty, honest, and from another place, she can't help but take better care of her.
She came this time not only to check the natural gas, but also because of the feedback from the elderly people in the family compound - Chen Run has not been seen for a long time. Recently, the person who came out to buy groceries was her mysterious boyfriend. This man always wore a big mask when he went out, and no one had seen what his face looked like until now.
Sister Chen felt something was wrong, so she simply came to take a look under the pretext of inspecting the natural gas. She warned the people in the house in her words and deeds that if they didn't open the door, she would call the police.
After saying the above, Sister Chen held her breath and waited for a while, but there was no movement in the house. She was a little impatient and was about to take out her cell phone when there was a "creak" sound and the old iron door was opened unexpectedly.
When Sister Chen saw who it was, her eyes widened unconsciously, and even the maintenance guy behind her blushed.
The man who opened the door was an extremely handsome man, who seemed to be of mixed race. His facial features were three-dimensional and deep, and his skin was rich and beautiful. Especially his eyes, which were like hooks, tickling people's hearts.
Sister Chen took a full minute to come back to her senses. She swallowed hard and said, "Hello, we are from the community... Is Chen Run, the tenant here, here?"
After coming to her senses, she became even more alert. How could this handsome man be willing to squeeze out of the rental house with a young girl? Could he be up to something bad?
Her tone became firm: "Sir, is Shen Run here? We need her signature."
The man looked them up and down. His gaze was like an X-ray, almost piercing through the skin and revealing the internal organs. It made Sister Chen and the maintenance boy shudder. He then curled his lips slightly, revealing a harmless smile: "She's here."
He turned slightly to the side, revealing Shen Run behind him.
This was the first time Chen Run saw another living person after being kept in captivity by him. Her eyes lit up instinctively and her mouth moved unconsciously. The next moment, Chi Shuangliu put his arm around her shoulders and gently restrained her in his arms.
He smiled and asked, "What do you want to say, dear?"
Chen Run's eyes immediately turned gray. Could she still ask for help in front of Chi Shuangliu? She was still useful at the moment. Chi Shuangliu might not kill her, but the two ordinary people in front of her would definitely die.
Thinking of this, she didn't even want the two of them to notice anything was wrong, so she forced a smile and said, "Nothing, I just haven't seen Sister Chen for a long time, and I wanted to say hello."
Seeing her standing here in good health, Sister Chen felt relieved and greeted her with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a while. What have you been busy with recently?" She glanced at Chi Shuangliu: "No one in the compound has seen you recently. They only saw your boyfriend out buying groceries." This is the good thing about the old family compound: there is more human touch than in high-rise residential areas.
Chi Shuangliu just smiled at her, with no intention of smoothing things over, as if he was deliberately trying to make things difficult for Chen Run.
Chen Run had to smooth things over himself: "Well... I've been sick recently and have been resting at home."
Sister Chen was completely relieved: "Young man, please take care of your health. You and your boyfriend have a good relationship. He has been busy taking care of you."
Chi Shuangliu hugged Chen Run tighter, and the smile on his lips deepened: "Yes, I like Run Run the most."
When he said this, he felt a secret joy. Only in this way could he express his love, even though he had repeated the words "love her" millions of times in his heart.
After saying this, he peeked at her with his peripheral vision at a 360-degree angle, and couldn't help but look forward to her reaction.
Shen Run secretly rolled his eyes and made a retching motion where no one else could see.
Before the hint of joy could appear on the corners of his mouth, his facial muscles had already twisted slightly, making him look very funny.
Sister Chen took the boy to the kitchen for repairs. As they worked, she asked, "Xiao Shen, didn't you want to participate in community employment training courses? There are public welfare courses coming soon. Do you want to go with me to go through the paperwork? You can start classes next month."
If I could take this opportunity to go out...
Shen Run's heart skipped a beat. Just as she was about to speak, Chi Shuangliu answered for her: "No, she hasn't been feeling well recently and isn't suitable for classes."
Sister Chen unconsciously looked up at the young couple. Shen Run's face looked unhappy, as if she disagreed with what her boyfriend said, but could not refute it.
She had that strange feeling in her heart again.
Replacing the aging equipment took about half an hour. During this time, Chi Shuangliu held Chen Run tightly. Sister Chen felt a growing sense of strangeness in her heart. When she was about to leave, she couldn't help but ask tentatively, "By the way, Xiao Shen, you still have some residence paperwork to complete. Would you like to come with me to the community to complete the paperwork..."
Sure enough, before she finished speaking, Chi Shuangliu interrupted again, showing a precise smile as if measured with a ruler: "She doesn't like the wind. I'll go down and help her tomorrow."
Sister Chen, of course, saw the unfriendly meaning in this smile, but she continued to probe, "The community is just a few steps away..."
Chi Shuangliu smiled faintly and said nothing more.
Sister Chen couldn't continue her solo performance. In order to prevent him from noticing her suspicion, she laughed dryly and tried to smooth things over: "Okay, then you guys remember to do it as soon as possible." Then she left.
Chi Shuangliu stared at her silently for a long time, and densely packed eyes appeared in the void, staring at her, as if they wanted to mark her with their gaze.
It was not until her figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs that Chi Shuangliu slightly curled his lips, looked away, and closed the door.
It was almost time to get off work, and Sister Chen was starting to feel something was amiss. She felt as if Chen Run was being coerced by her boyfriend, and immediately thought of domestic violence and illegal detention—but she had no actual evidence, and things like this between a young couple were hard to say. Maybe they were just having a fight? Or maybe she should just turn a blind eye.
Sister Chen struggled for a long time, but finally her conscience prevailed. After returning home, she called the police - let the police go and take a look. If there was anything wrong, it would be best to arrest the man. If there was nothing wrong, she would be relieved.
She waited a while before the call was connected. She quickly said, "Hello, police officer, I'm the social worker from xx community. The tenant of Room 303, Unit 1, Building 3, is suspected of being illegally detained by her boyfriend. Could you please come over and take a look?"
There was no movement on the other end of the phone for a long time. Sister Chen was about to check if there was a problem with the signal when a chuckle suddenly came from the receiver.
——It was the voice of Shen Run’s boyfriend.
Sister Chen’s scalp was about to explode.
There was a slight "click" sound, and the light bulb flickered strangely, then suddenly went out, and soon the room was plunged into darkness.
She hung up the phone in a hurry, but vague language that did not belong to human beings still came out of the receiver.
Her head buzzed and her eyes instantly became bloodshot.
......
Chen Run was quite surprised that Chi Shuangliu agreed to let outsiders in, but she quickly realized that Chi Shuangliu was probably afraid that the community staff would call the police and cause unnecessary trouble.
Sure enough, after the staff left, Chi Shuangliu rebuilt the 'Nest Xue'.
Chen Run couldn't help but ask, "I don't understand why you had to bring me here?" This is a residential area, and she was afraid that if what happened today happened a few more times, Chi Shuangliu would get angry and start a killing spree.
This house is the only place on the entire earth that Chi Shuangliu is willing to call 'home'.
His eyes flickered slightly, and instead of answering, he asked, "Or do you want to enter my body more?"
Why does this sound so like a hooligan...Chen Run curled his lips.
Chi Shuangliu wanted to say something, but suddenly he tilted his head, as if he sensed something.
He took out his half-worn cell phone and pressed a few buttons randomly, and Sister Chen's voice came from the receiver - it was obvious that she was calling the police.
Chi Shuangliu chuckled at the other end of the phone, opened his mouth, and the air in his mouth vibrated, making a sound that was not human. His voice was neither hurried nor slow, as if he wanted to utter a complete sentence in this strange language.
Obviously, the language of high-dimensional gods is not something that ordinary humans can understand. Sister Chen screamed on the other end of the phone.
It was obvious that Chi Shuangliu wanted to kill her. With just a few casual words through the receiver, he could take the life of an ordinary person.
Is he actually capable of attacking humans? Or does calling the police also constitute a sign of ill will towards him? Or has his restraints been further loosened?
——No matter what, he must not be allowed to finish this sentence!!!
Shen Run was anxious to interrupt him, and his actions were faster than his thinking. He raised his hand and slapped him.
Chi Shuangliu's voice suddenly stopped, the phone slipped from his hand, and Sister Chen finally survived. Sister Chen's gasping sound came from the other end of the receiver.
Shen Run finally regained his sanity as he saw five clear slap marks appear on his beautiful face.
The slap she gave was really hard. If an ordinary person had received such a slap, their head would have been blown off. Chi Shuangliu's head was tilted aside by the slap. He paused, then slowly turned his head, staring at her with dark eyes: "You fought me for a stranger?"
It’s not like Shen Run had never hit him before, but it was either when she was angry or her life was threatened. Now, even a stranger could be a reason for her to hit him.
Just because he's a monster, in her heart he's not even as good as an ordinary person she's not very familiar with?
Why is she so nice to everyone but not to him?
Pure black spread out before his eyes, the temperature in the living room dropped by several degrees, and the space even had slightly distorted ripples.
The corners of his mouth curved into a malicious arc: "Then you will see with your own eyes how she dies."
Shen Run's throat tightened.
The two had fought before, but because she was still useful, Chi Shuangliu didn't do anything to her. But this time was different. He seemed particularly angry. Even if he didn't kill her, Sister Chen would definitely not survive.
But Sister Chen got into trouble because she was helping her, so she couldn't let anything happen to Sister Chen! !
Chi Shuangliu raised his hand, and the air vibrated violently, just like a projection screen, and the situation in Sister Chen's house was suddenly projected onto the wall of the living room.
Fragile humans are simply unable to resist high-dimensional gods. Sister Chen's nose began to bleed, and she was frantically looking for a tissue to stop it bleeding.
Chi Shuangliu smiled contemptuously, raised his hand and reached into the "projection", and a cold white palm appeared directly above Sister Chen's head. The scene was really horrifying.
No, something must be done!
An evil light flashed through Chen Run's mind. He raised his hand, grabbed his collar, and pushed him against the wall.
Before Chi Shuangliu could resist, she raised her head and blocked his lips with hers.
Her lips were cold, pressed tightly against his, her movements were ambiguous and lingering, but she had no extra thoughts.
Her breathing was trembling, and she didn't dare to take the next step. She waited nervously for his reaction, like a death row prisoner waiting to be shot.
——She didn't know why she did this. Countless ignored details of their interactions on a daily basis were stored in her subconscious mind and became life-saving instructions at the critical moment.
It was as if a voice in her subconscious told her that only by doing this could Sister Chen be saved.
The next second, she turned over and was pressed heavily on the sofa by him.
His mind collapsed uncontrollably, as if he could no longer bear it. His tongue stirred and swept in her mouth, sucking her saliva in big gulps.
As he became distracted, the projection on the wall naturally disappeared.
Shen Run's mind was confused.
Did she...win the bet?
