Jiang Min, of course, neither opened the door nor spoke.

He lay on the chair, waiting for the man outside to leave. Perhaps realizing that Jiang Min inside wouldn't open the door, Jiang Min finally heard the man's footsteps slowly disappearing.

Jiang Min didn't look up. He just lay on the chair. From an angle he couldn't see, the thing that had pretended to leave moved back to the blue glass door half a minute later. It was still staring into the restaurant, as if it would stay there forever as long as Jiang Min didn't open the door.

The shops where the remaining team members were located also saw customers who had just left reappear outside after the closing time... except some people weren't so lucky.

One of the team members was in a barbershop, watching a customer leave after just getting a haircut.

The time inside the store had just turned 6 o'clock when the customer reappeared outside the door.

The barbershop's glass was transparent, and as soon as the team member turned his head, he saw a customer whose face was pressed against the glass... The customer smiled at him and broke down the door while they were making eye contact.

A moment later, the sound of chewing, which made your teeth ache, echoed through the barbershop.

...

Outside Cen Yu's shop, that person was still knocking on the door.

Cen Yu pressed He Yuxing's head down and hid behind the counter with him. The knocking on the door showed no sign of stopping, but perhaps because they hadn't found the "boss" inside, the people outside were unable to come in.

All they could do was keep knocking on the door and making various noises.

Cen Yu and He Yuxing squatted behind the counter.

To keep He Yuxing's wings from causing trouble, Cen Yu could only hold them down to prevent them from making noise and alerting the people outside the door.

After an unknown amount of time, just as Cen Yu felt her legs going numb... the knocking on the door finally stopped.

He slightly raised his head, using the edge of the counter as a shield, to observe the location at the store entrance.

There was no one at the store entrance; it seemed the person had left.

Cen Yu leaned on the counter for a while, then looked up at the time displayed on the store's clock—

9 p.m.

“There’s a time issue here,” Cen Yu said.

He was talking to He Yuxing when the door of the DVD store was suddenly pushed open—

Just as Cen Yu was about to take action, he discovered that the person who pushed open the door was not the young couple from before, but a handsome man in a suit with an exaggerated expression.

The other person was also holding a very conspicuous bouquet of red roses.

Cen Yu: "?"

Why does this person look so familiar?

"Cen Yu!" Upon seeing Cen Yu behind the counter, the man immediately pulled something out of his pocket.

Cen Yu took precautionary measures.

"Marry me!" The man opened the ring box he had taken out, then suddenly knelt down on one knee and opened it—

"Marry me, Cen Yu."

He Yuxing, who had just crawled out from under the counter: "...?"

Cen Yu looked at the red roses handed to him and asked, "Are you sick?"

"Even if you scold me, I won't leave." The man continued reciting his lines with deep emotion, "It was all my fault before, but I've changed."

Even if you're with me for money, it doesn't matter!

I really love you!

"Accept my proposal, Cen Yu."

He Yuxing looked at Cen Yu, "Should we kill him?"

Finally, the man got too lazy to pretend to be innocent. Cen Yu thought to himself, and he held down the restless He Yuxing, gesturing for him to look at the promotional posters in the DVD store.

He Yuxing looked in the direction Cen Yu was pointing.

The man on the poster, with an exaggerated expression, was kneeling on one knee, holding a red rose in his hand, just like the one who appeared in the DVD store at that moment.

“You’re too late,” Cen Yu said, leaning over the counter. “I’m married.”

The man's face showed disbelief. "How could this be!"

He started reciting his lines in front of the counter, while Cen Yu whispered to He Yuxing, "Go check if the store has a poster of that horror movie."

The DVD store certainly didn't have any extras, so their only hope now was to find a horror movie poster and see if there was any useful information on it.

Cen Yu, on the other hand, was responsible for talking to the man behind the counter, thus delaying the progress of this romance film.

Commonly known as water injection.

"What did I do wrong?! Why did you marry someone else?" the domineering CEO demanded, his voice trembling with anguish. "Who did you marry? Who is he?!"

“You don’t know him,” Cen Yu replied dismissively.

The CEO was saddened, the CEO couldn't believe it, the CEO decided to try again, "Cen Yu, my helicopter is right outside."

As soon as those words were spoken, a roaring sound echoed outside.

"If you're willing, you can come with me right now. I don't mind that you're already married."

"Xiao Yu!" He Yuxing poked her head out from behind the shelf. "I found it!"

Holding the torn poster in his hand, he pushed aside the domineering CEO and placed the poster in front of Cen Yu.

Cen Yu looked down and noticed that besides the sentence he had just read, there was another line of small print on the poster—

At 3 a.m., he heard the lingering sound of wind chimes...

Shh, don't let her find out you're pretending to be asleep.

Cen Yu immediately looked up at the clock in the store and saw that it had already reached 2:50 a.m., with less than 10 minutes left until 3 a.m.

"You don't mind, but I do." After reading the information on the poster, Cen Yu finally found time to reply to the domineering CEO.

"Can you leave now?" Cen Yu asked. "We're going to sleep."

...

In the end, the domineering CEO left heartbroken, holding the roses and the ring.

As soon as the CEO left, Cen Yu glanced at the clock and realized that it was less than 5 minutes until 3 a.m.

"Go to sleep," Cen Yu urged He Yuxing. "Time is running out."

He Yuxing hesitated and looked at Cen Yu, "Where do you want me to sleep?" This DVD shop has neither small rooms nor beds. Are you suggesting that he sleep on the floor?

Just as he was about to ask, he saw Cen Yu already sitting on the floor of the DVD shop, looking like he was about to fall asleep.

When Cen Yu turned his head, he found He Yuxing still standing in the same spot, looking a little lost. He asked in surprise, "Do you have to sleep standing up now?"

"Do you need me to find you a branch?"

He Yuxing: "..."

He Yuxing felt that Cen Yu had probably misunderstood his mutation, so he solemnly declared—

"Xiao Yu, I only have the mutated characteristics of an angel, I haven't actually turned into a bird."

"Therefore, I don't need branches."
